Henry County approves rezoning request for senior living facility

The rezoning request was recommended for approval.

The rezoning request was recommended for approval.

The Henry County Zoning Advisory Board voted at its May 27 regular meeting to recommend approval of a request to rezone a 7.975-acre tract from C-2 (general commercial) to OI (office-institutional). The site is on the west side of Patrick Henry Parkway and the east side of I-75 between Eagle’s Landing Parkway and Jodeco Road. The applicant plans to develop a four-story, 200,000-square-foot senior care facility with up to 190 independent living, assisted living and memory care units.

The ZAB also approved a variance request that will allow the developer to work with county staff to determine a suitable reduction in the number of required parking spaces for the facility. The rezoning request will go before the Board of Commissioners for final approval.
