STOP REZONING (RETAIL) RZC2023-00016 BRASELTON/CAIN CIRCLE NEAR PUCKETTS MILL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

SAY NO TO RZC2023-00016 (REZONING FROM OFFICE TO RETAIL)

BRASELTON/CAIN CIRCLE NEAR PUCKETTS MILL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Intersection of Braselton Highway/Cain Circle     

The Gwinnett County Planning Commission is holding the second round of hearings on September 5th, 2023, 7:00 pm at Gwinnett Justice and Administrative Center, 75 Langely Drive, Lawrenceville, 30046

It is important that we let the Gwinnett County Planning Commission know that area residents are in opposition to this proposed rezoning. The applicant is seeking to rezone the parcel, currently zoned O-I to C-1.  

For reference: The Office and Institutional (“O-I”) district is established to allow office uses as well as a limited number of other uses that are compatible with an office environment, and to serve as a transition district between residential areas and more intensive commercial areas.

And C-1 district is designed to provide for a wide range. of retail, office, amusement, and service uses, and light industrial processes involving high performance standards. Permitted uses include: Barbershops, Beauty Salons, Drugstores, Grocery stores, Laundromats, Variety Stores. And Conditional uses include: Service stations, Liquor stores, and Restaurants. 

The applicant says this rezoning would accommodate the changing needs of the community and surrounding area. It would provide opportunities for local businesses to thrive and serve the community’s needs. And would include diverse small-scale retail, personal services and other commercial activities compatible with rte surround residential area. 

If you agree that RZC2023-00016 is a bad plan for this intersection and a bad plan for the area, please sign this petition.
