The McDonough City Council voted at its Nov. 18 regular meeting to deny a rezoning request for a site at 600 Lake Dow Road and table a separate request for a hotel site on Avalon Court.
The Lake Dow proposal was for a single-family residential zoning of a 35.75-acre tract with conditions and variances “to correct a procedural deficiency,” according to officials. After a motion to approve was made and seconded, several council members voiced their frustration with the process regarding this particular item, and the vote failed 3-4. The Avalon Court request is for a rezoning to C-3 (highway commercial) with new conditions to allow for a hotel on 1.79 acres of a 4.47-acre overall site.
A motion to table that item until the council’s Dec. 9 meeting was approved unanimously.
