Penney, Rich's, Davison's, Colonial Food Stores, Richway, Woolworth, Morrison's · ca:eterias, Eckerd Dkuys anJ Rcvco Drugs. The Applicant has extensive ~x~oricnce in the develop- ment of mall-type shopping centers' and adjacent commercial centers. These shopping centers have been developed in such a manner as to be an asset to their respective communities. -1- ·. Section • Gener~l nescriotion The site contains 335 ucres ~hich the Applicant intends to develop over a 10 to 15 year period as a- · r .etail/commercial complex to serve the Glynn County/Brunswick area as well as the other southeast Georgia counties. The dominant feature. within the en tire tract will be a regional shopping mall featuring up to five department stores connected by an enclosed, all-~eather, pedestrian mall with numerous retail shops and other compatible uses. The mall tract or Mall Development will occupy approximately 56.4 acres of the tract and will be developed in at least t~o phases. Applicant is requesting this tract be zoned General Commercial (GC) . The initial ·phase will feature at least two full-line department stores currently operating in the Brunswick area as well as no less than 150,000 square fe~t of rental space for shops, dining facilities, and service facilities (financial offices, insurance offices, beauty parlors, travel agency, etc.) A multi-scree~ theatre may be provided in conjunction with the Mall Development. The r1a11 Development \iill be subject to various long-~erm agreemen~s for easements, . operati~g. maintenance and oro­ motion. ·A" · confidential market study by Larry Smith & Company dated October, 1980, is attached as Exhibit "B". This report -2- 10-7-86 documents the• existing macket for the •Mall Development. The Applicant anticipates an opening by 1986. The remaining area of the tract will be developed over a 5 to 15 year period and will be refecred to as the Planned Devel- opment Area. The tract will consist of278.6acres and will be subdivided into numerous parcels ~or sale or lease to various commercial, retail, and office users generally found in planned commercial/business centers, especially those adjacent to regional malls. Individual parcels within the Planned Development Area will be thoroughly regulated as to use, ouality and type of im- pcovements. landscaoing, sionage, and onaoing u p-kee o . The Appli­ cant will continue the practice used in other major projects in Georgia of controlling virtually every aspect of the parcels by recording at the time of sale with the deed or land lease a set of "Restrictive Covenants", a sample copy of which is attached as Exhibit "D". A review of the attached covenants will show how rigid and thorough the contcol by the Applicant is to be applied and more importantly retained. ~t w~s ~ he origin~l intent of th~ Applicant to submit ~n application for General Commercial zoning (GC) for the entire proposed development. However, based on preliminary discussions with Mr. Craig Mahlman, the Executive Diractor of the Brunswick/ Glynn County Joint Planning Commission, it was decided that a -3- 10-7-86 ~ . ·. Plan Development-Shopping• • (PD-S) would• be moce appcopciate foe the Planned Development Area (22R acres). As stated in Section 723 of the Zoning Ocdinance, the PD-S Zoning District was created for the establishment and continuance of shopping centers and similar types of large-scale compatible use developments. This section provides further: The regulations ·which apply within this district are designed to encourage the formation of such planned development when and as appropriate and to permit the greatest latitude possible with respect to: l) internal site planning consideration; and 2) the location of these developments with the unincor­ porated portions of Glynn County, Georgia. In order for the entice project (both Mall Development and Planned Development Area) to be successful, it is essential the Applicant have the "greatest· latitude possible" with regard to the internal .planning consideration. The requested zoning clas- sifications will give Applicant the needed flexibility for a successful development that will be an asset to the corrununity as well as generating new jobs and new revenues from sales tax and ad valorem tax. T: ·, .:; lard which 1 s the .:;u~j ect watt.::;: of th.is application will be developed by the Applicant {n accordance with a general overall development plan. The plan is attached· as Exhibit "E", entitled "Zoning Plat".

  • Gwinnett County; a Bicentennial Celebration
    Gwinnett County A Bicentennial Celebration By Michael Gagnon, Ph.D. 1 Copyright © Michael J. Gagnon, Ph.D. On the cover: The Gwinnett Historic Courthouse, built in 1885, was the official seat of the county government until 1988, when it was replaced by the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center. 2 winnett County evolved from a typical southern rural place to Gthe bustling and diverse suburban place it is today, with all the challenges one might imagine that accompany such a radical change. At first a western place, Gwinnett in 1820 enumerated less than 5,000 souls with the Cherokee Nation directly across the Chattahoochee River. It soon became a southern place, as Gwinnett’s population rose to about 13,000 people through the Civil War, with one fifth of its population enslaved. Gwinnett’s population slowly grew from 19,000 in 1880 to 30,000 people in 1920. Then the decline in agriculture and race relations resulted in a population decrease, only reaching above 30,000 citizens again in 1950. As transportation to Atlanta improved in the 1950s, Gwinnett’s growth became suburban rather than rural. White flight from Atlanta in the 1970s crowded Gwinnett, while the 1980s introduced the racial, ethnic and religious diversity that is the hallmark of Gwinnett today. Forethought and planning by civic and business leaders created growth, which also brought challenges for providing jobs, housing, transportation, and a quality of life to sustain that growth into the 21st century. In 2015, the Census Bureau estimated Gwinnett’s population at nearly 900,000, and its ethnicity distribution as roughly 40% White (non-Hispanic), 28% African American, 21% Hispanic or Latino, 12% Asian, and nearly 3% self-identifying as multiracial.
