Land Ordinance Statement

Fellow Chattooga County Citizens,

I want to give my official position on the Land Development Ordinance.

Our county needs to implement a high-density residential housing land ordinance. This means if you were looking to develop an actual high-density subdivision, the local county government should have a set of guidelines and stipulations for such developments.

However, I see the newly adopted ordinance as a device that lets the land commission have control over the division of our land. I cannot support legislation that gives five un-elected citizens the ability to tell landowners how they can divide their property!

Thank You for your time,

Andy Allen
