The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted at its March 1 regular meeting to approve a rezoning request regarding a 3.2-acre tract at 1376 Old Conyers Road, only a few hundred southwest of its intersection with Flat Rock Road.

The rezoning from residential-agricultural and neighborhood commercial to single-family residential is intended to allow a residential lot split so that single-family houses can be constructed on each of the resulting four separate lots.

The motion to approve included the requirement that each house be a minimum of 1,600 square feet. The vote was unanimous.
