Two forums to gain public input on a proposal to develop the so-called "West Vllage" area of Peachtree City are scheduled for Monday and Tuesday from 6-9 p.m. at the Wyndham Peachtree Conference Center.

Peachtree City Mayor Steve Brown and city planners, representatives of John Wieland Homes and a committee of citizens will participate in the planning charette.

John Wieland Homes has submitted a Phase I application for annexation of approximately 415 acres north of Wynnmeade and Centennial at the termination of McDuff Parkway.

Following the city's new ordinance on annexations, Wieland's request will be submitted to the City Council for consideration.�If the annexation process request is approved by Council, any site plan developed would then be required to proceed through the regular channels of the Peachtree City Planning Commission.

Other members of the City Council of Peachtree City, with the possibility of a quorum, may be in attendance on one or both evenings.

John Wieland himself plans to attend the Monday night session, said Dan Fields, vice president of land acquisition for Wieland Homes.

"John Wieland is very interested in leaving a legacy, in adding value to the overall community," Fields said.

"This will be the city's meeting, the citizens' meeting," he said. "We're going in there with a clean slate, basically a clean sheet of paper. We'll be letting the citizens tell us how they want to live."

Wieland already owns the property and submitted development plans to Fayette County planners earlier this year to build in the unincorporated county.

Brown is encouraging Wieland to consider a number of improvements and added amenities in any development that might be annexed, primarily a McDuff Parkway extension to Ga. Highway 74 that he says is essential to ease traffic congestion at Hwys. 74 and 54.
