Stephens Co. Commission Holds Regular Meeting
Stephens County Commissioners approve a local resident’s request for a conditional use permit for his home based business.
On Tuesday, county commissioners approved the request of Dustin Keeling on Virginia Drive in Eastanollee for a conditional use permit.
Currently, Keeling’s property is zoned as a single family residence.
Stephens County Attorney Brian Ranck said the permit would allow Keeling to have Internet sales with low to no inventory out of his home.
“He is seeking a home base Internet sales business, which is part of his gunsmith operation which is already in place, so this would be a home occupation, which is an allowable conditional use under the land use ordinance,” said Ranck.
Commissioners approved the request unanimously.
At a public hearing prior to the vote, there was no opposition voiced to the request.
Also on Tuesday, Stephens County Commissioners held an initial public hearing for a new alcohol license for V.K. Management for the Happy Food Mart.
There were no public comments during that hearing.
Finally on Tuesday, Stephens County Commissioners did unanimously approve a series on Fiscal Year 2016 budget amendments.
