Habersham County Considered Limiting New Homes Along Existing Roads to Small Subdivisions

Habersham County officials considered a proposed amendment in May 2023 that would limit new homes built along existing county roads to minor subdivisions, a potentially consequential constraint on residential growth in the county’s unincorporated areas. The measure, identified as AM-23-01, was described in approved meeting minutes as a change to the county’s Consolidated Land Development Ordinance.
