Rabun Co. Commission approves remaining 5 Articles of Chapter 56 Zoning

The Rabun County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved the remaining 5 of 8 articles of Chapter 56 zoning at their December monthly meeting on Tuesday, December 19, 2023, explains Rabun County Administrator Darrin Giles. “The Planning and Zoning Board had basically made some recommendations to the Board of Commissioners mainly it was updating a few, it also was speaking to ordinances that were already on the books that for whatever reason hadn’t been followed closely in the past but some of the ordinances updated basically made it easier for people to be able to do a few things. The Planning Board worked really hard and the Commission worked really hard and at the second reading, there was no opposition against or for during the hearing. So, it passed unanimously and we are pleased.” Rabun County has been working on these zoning updates for two and a half years through deliberation, counseling, and forming multiple committees to get input from professionals including real estate, other counties, and other agencies.
