The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted at its Aug. 20 regular meeting to approve rezoning request involving a 2.07-acre tract within a larger planned development east of Hwy. 42 between McDonough and Locust Grove.

Two lots at the corner of Revere Drive and John R. Williams Parkway were previously zoned for commercial development but have now been changed to single-family residential with sewer. There has been little or no interest in commercial development at the intersection, according to the applicant, as most of the commercial activity is nearer Hwy. 42, and this change was determined to be more appropriate as an extension of the existing residential development.

The overall development was rezoned in 2002 and has a mix of residential, commercial, office and industrial uses.
