Josh Yellin for Skidaway Land and Cattle LLC, Petitioner (File No. 20-001964-ZA) is requesting approval of a rezoning map amendment for two parcels located at 7 Southern Oaks Drive and 121 Southern Boulevard. The petitioner is requesting to rezone the properties from a B-C (Community Business) to an I-L (Light Industrial) zoning classification.

The subject site is located within a business park that was established in 1999. The Declarant has stated that the Southern Oaks Business Centre envisioned warehousing as a permitted use. Also, there are existing warehouse developments located within the Southern Oaks Business Centre. The additional uses permitted within the requested I-L zoning district would not adversely impact the existing properties within the business park or properties located within the general area. Rezoning would also provide other uses that could complement the existing business park and provide a greater flexibility of development options.

On May 19, 2020, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the petitioner’s request to rezone the subject site (Lot 9 - PIN 20794 01011 and Lot 10 - PIN 20794 01022) located at the southwest corner of Southern Boulevard and Southern Oaks Drive from the existing B-C (Community Business) zoning classification to an I-L (Light Industrial) zoning classification based on the findings identified in the staff report.

Public comments will be accepted prior to the meeting beginning Monday, June 8, 2020 at 8am until Thursday, June 11, 2020 at 12 noon.  Please contact the Clerk of Council's Office via email at ClerkofCouncil@savannahga.gov or via phone at (912) 651-6441.
