The Henry County Board of Commissioners officially voiced its objection to a pair of annexation requests at its May 7 regular meeting.
One is for about 43 acres of land on South Hampton Road that would become part of Hampton, although the county objects to the proposed rezoning that would substantially change the intensity of the land use, according to county officials. The other request involves 183 acres along Campground Road and Elliott Road that would become part of McDonough, extending that city perhaps to its northernmost point and also allow a residential density above the county’s future land use map.
The owners of this tract previously filed a rezoning request with the county but withdrew it before a decision was made.
