Variance:
VR-12-02-S
Presented by Ray Gibson, City Administrator, for Hamilton State Bank, of Braselton, GA
requesting a variance from development regulations for property located at 4806 North
Henry Blvd, in Land Lot 60 of the 12th District. Mr. Gibson informed the council that this
is a request to reduce the front yard setback from fifty (50) feet to ten (10) feet. When
the building was built it was built on a two lane road and now are expanding to four
lanes. Hamilton State Bank would like to place a drive through on the rear portion of the
property, Henry County Planning and Zoning then created a variance request. The City
is able to move forward without the Variance request, this is not necessarily a
nonconformance of the existing structure, however this Variance will help in the event
that they want to expand on that existing building in the future. Motion to approve made
by Councilman Cochran; Second by Councilman Steinberg. The motion passed 5-0.

Mayor Stuart asked if anyone would like to speak in favor of this variance.
Representative from Hamilton State Bank informed the council that he is for it and
would like to begin as soon as possible as they are now sixty (60) days behind.

Mayor Stuart asked if anyone opposed to this variance. No one came forth.

A motion to adjourn was made by Councilwoman Buschman; Second by Councilman
Cochran. The motion passed 5-0.

Respectfully submitted by:

Nicol Vasquez, City Clerk Lee Stuart, Mayor
