The Bradley County Regional Planning Commission unanimously approved a slate of final plats and granted variances needed to complete one subdivision on its monthly agenda.
Staff member Bentley told the commission that the Red Hill Estates final plat is a 13‑lot subdivision served by a private road and meets applicable regulations and resolutions. Commissioners approved the Red Hill Estates final plat by roll call, with Jamie Bishop, Richard Bernett, Doug Kaywood, Mel Griffith, Keith Jones, Max Phillips and Josh Rogers voting in favor.
The commission next approved the Ferris property final plat, an eight‑lot subdivision with a private road, and then approved Woodland Heights (lots 1 through 81). Bentley said Woodland Heights has been in the works for several years, that the road is built and staff had no outstanding objections.
On the Hoskins Sharp subdivision the commission considered a revised final plat and a separate variance request. Bentley said two lots (identified in the staff presentation as Lot 1 and Lot 8) do not meet the ordinance requirement that any lot under three acres have at least 25 feet of public road frontage; those lots have 20.27 feet of frontage. Bentley told the commission two variances of 4.73 feet would be required to proceed. The commission voted first to grant the variances and then to approve the final plat; both votes were recorded as seven in favor.
All final‑plat approvals and the variances were approved without recorded dissents. The commission took no additional conditions on the plats beyond normal permitting requirements.
The commission moved on to other agenda items after the approvals. The votes recorded during the session identify the seven members who participated in roll calls and recorded votes as Jamie Bishop, Richard Bernett, Doug Kaywood, Mel Griffith, Keith Jones, Max Phillips and Josh Rogers.
The commission did not identify any immediate implementation dates for the plats; remaining permitting steps and developer obligations were not specified in the record.
