Church Road, Loganville, Georgia 30052, map and parcel number LG060046
in Walton County, Georgia. Present zoning is R-22. The ordinance and
section from which relief is sought is the zoning ordinance 119-209C.

» Ready for me? Okay. My name's Katie Bullard. I am a real estate agent.
This was my Oh, yes. My voice is just really loud,
so. Um this was my Nana's property, and I'm
just trying to sell it for my mom and my stepdad. We sold the house.
Now we're trying to sell the lot. I tried to sell the house and the lot
together, but it didn't work. So, we took the lot off
the listing for the house. The house sold, and now we have the lot.
So, we are just asking for approval for us to be able to move forward on being
able to sell it to a builder that we're already under contract with
so he can build on the lot. Cuz we can't do anything with it. So,
um, my mom and stepdad live in Loganville,
but they live in Walton County. So, they don't live in the city limits. Um, they
don't want it. They don't want to have to pay taxes on it. I live in Jasper
County. I can't do anything with it. So, we're just here to ask
to give us approval for it. >> Okay.
All right. >> Any questions for me?
» Yes. >> Yes, sir.
» What is the builder trying to build on the property?
» Just a house. >> A regular house or subdivision?
» Just a regular house. Well, the lot is already in a subdivision, Overlook
Point. >> Okay.
» So, when my Nana bought the property, she actually bought the four lots. Her
house, the lot next to it, and the two lots behind it. And then, I don't know
what she did later down the road with the other lot,
sold them, whatever she did with them. And she ended up with her house and the
lot next to it. So, he's just It's already in a
neighborhood. >> Got you.
» So, it's an Overlook or Overlook Point. Um, so it's already zoned for that.
» Okay. >> It's just
we just need to sell it and get rid of it. So.
» Got you.
» Anything else for me? >> Any other Well, I was going to ask for
any community, but we can move on to our commission. So, if you have more
questions >> Oh. Sorry.
I follow you. >> Oh my goodness. I was like, where's the
cat? >> Right attention. Meow. I have a question
for you.
» I'm sorry. >> Let's let's go through the uh
» Which one? Okay. >> Yeah, let's go let's go to the support.
» You're good. >> [laughter]
» Sorry. That was hilarious. >> All right, turn it off.
So, since we don't have anyone here for um
in favor of or against, we'll move on to the commission.
» Well, I I recommend that we pass this. Um I don't see any reason why we
shouldn't. Uh they're just asking for a 20-ft
25-ft variance, so uh it'll give them a little bit more
room to to build, so I don't see a problem
with it myself. So, I make a motion that we accept the variance that they're
asking for. >> I second it.
» Okay.
» All in favor? >> I.
» I. >> Any oppose?
» No oppose. >> Okay.
» Thank you. >> You're welcome.
» For case number V 26-008,
it is approved.

interrupting, but I did want to take this opportunity to remind everybody
that this case will be before the city council.

well as a vote will be held at September 10th at 6:30 p.m. in these chambers.
» Okay. Thank you. If that is it,
may I have a motion to adjourn? >> So moved.
» Second. >> Second.
» All in favor? >> I.
» I. >> All opposed?
» None. >> All right, that adjourns.
