Two Fayetteville annexation requests withdrawn

Two requests for annexation into Fayetteville to come before the Fayette County Commission on Aug. 9 were withdrawn by the applicants.

One of the annexation requests came from Brent Fayette and pertained to 101 acres along Callaway Road off Ga. Highway 54 East.

The second request dealt with 20.2 acres along South Jeff Davis Drive.

Both annexation requests included the proposed establishment of single-family home subdivisions.

County Administrator Steve Rapson at the Aug. 9 meeting said he received information earlier in the day from Fayetteville City Manager Ray Gibson indicating that the requests had been withdrawn by the developers.

County staff had recommended that commissioners object, with conditions, to the two annexation requests.
