Developer looks to build 220 houses at mobile home park site
The Woodstock City Council will consider a request in August from a developer who is seeking to replace a mobile home park with a 220-home neighborhood. On June 16, the Cherokee County Board of Commissioners discussed a request from Weekley Homes, LLC to annex about 31.47 acres at 200 Dupree Road and 681 Stone Bridge Parkway, just west of Interstate 575, into the city of Woodstock to build 220 detached single-family residential homes. The applicant also looks to rezone the property from R-40, single-family residential (county) to R-4, single-family residential (city) under the land use designation of "Neighborhood Living." The proposed density is seven units per acre, according to county documents. The site of the proposed development includes Ansley Park of Woodstock , a mobile home park. A portion of the properties is vacant, according to the county. The properties are within the growth boundary agreement between Cherokee County and Woodstock.

According to attorney Kevin Moore, representing the project, the new development will be “phase two” of the Walton Ridenour apartments at 1425 Ridenour Blvd., located adjacent to the property. The council approved the rezoning 4-1 with Councilman Anthony Gutierrez opposed. The proposal previously came before the council in April and was withdrawn due to floodplain and topography issues, which Moore said the new design has worked around. According to Planning and Zoning Director Chanelle Campbell, the development will include 47 one-bedroom units, 111 two-bedroom units and 24 three-bedroom units with a maximum of six stories, as well as 5,000 square feet of retail space.

“Awful lot of money”: Rome weighs cost of tearing down blighted properties
Rome city officials say nuisance abatement efforts are improving safety and redevelopment opportunities across the city, but commissioners acknowledged the high cost taxpayers are bearing to tear down dilapidated properties. During a presentation at last week’s Rome City Commission caucus meeting, Chief Senior Code Enforcement Inspector Glenn Rubin said the city demolished five unsafe structures over a 10-day period at 127 Wadsworth Street, 204 Church Street, 1507 Spring Creek Street, and 801 and 813 Maple Avenue. Rubin also noted the demolition of five dilapidated houses along North Broad Street that are being addressed through the code enforcement process. The demolitions are part of the city’s nuisance abatement process, a last-resort measure used when properties fall into severe disrepair and owners fail to bring them into compliance. “These are properties that have exhausted all other options,” Rubin said to commissioners. “At that point, the action is taken against the property itself.” Rubin said many of the cases involve fire-damaged structures, unprobated estates or properties that have changed hands multiple times without improvements, leaving the city with few options other than demolition.
