Hunger Walk/Run in Atlanta ‘Active adult’ project on Hickory Road OK’d

The Cherokee County Board of Commission­ers has approved a developer’s plan for an age-restricted, “active adult” community on Hickory Road near Holly Springs.

The Carson Developmen­ts Inc. plans to build 82 attached homes on 21.6 acres at 5155 and 5175 Hickory, on the north side of road between East Cherokee Drive and Hickory Flat Highway.

County commission­ers agreed to rezone the land from general commercial to agricultur­al-residentia­l, and to allow certain variances, such as dead-end drives in lieu of cul de sacs, in exchange for certain conditions.

These include restrictin­g the community to residents 55 years of age and older, providing a sidewalk along Hickory Road, working with the local library board to run a sidewalk to a library next door and having profession­als handle landscape and exterior maintenanc­e.
