Martin to explain to the public why this did not go before the Planning & Zoning Commission first. Mr. Martin explained that small changes may arise during the design process; however, there are no changes in orientation of the home, the lot sizes are the same, and the original intent of the zoning is in place. Had there been a density change or a change in the orientation in the road, it would have gone back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. They have been working with the adjoining property owners. Kevin Moore, representative of Traton Homes, extended a heartfelt thanks to Mr. Martin and Mr. Staubes for their engagement with the community. He provided a brief historical context: Two (2) acres at Campbell Rd and Atlanta Rd. Shopping could have gone here, but it was not received well in the community.

What this search can tell you
