There will

be a Tires Plus by the Wal-Mart and Home Depot in Peachtree City, and

construction could start as early as late this summer or early fall.

Though the

Peachtree City Planning Commission approved the conceptual site plan for

Tires Plus at Monday's meeting, RAM Development, the owners of the property,

will have to come back before the commission after design guidelines for

all property within the Ga. Highway 54 West corridor are completed.

Tires Plus

will be a 7,280-square-foot building with a 3,700-square-foot building

attached and 52 parking spaces. Tires Plus will be the initial development

of several buildings in the area and they will all be tied together with

an access road. City Planner David Rast also explained that Tires Plus

will have a storm drain system that will aid the Chevron station next

door which does not. The Chevron station, which is currently on a septic

system and has septic fields that flood when it rains, will tie in to

the sewer which Tires Plus and the new buildings will be on.

The Planning

Commission thinks that the Georgia Department of Transportation will start

moving dirt late this summer as the Hwy 54 widening project will begin

and would like for construction to start at around the same time.

RAM Development

will continue working with the Hwy. 54 West Advisory Board to come up

with design guidelines for the Ga. 54 West Corridor. It was estimated

at Monday's meeting that the guidelines will be completed within the next

two months.
