The Monroe County Planning
& Zoning board approved by
a 3-0 vote on Monday to allow
River Edge Behavioral Health to
build a personal care home on
Zdlner Road.
River Edge chief fadlities
development officer Cass
Hatcher asked the P & Z board
for a conditional use variance
in agriculta zoning to allow
for a personal care home on a
2.99-acre tract at 1962 Zellner
Road. He said the proposed
2,400 square-foot commu-
nity group home will have four
bedrooms and two-and-a-half
bathrooms and will look similar
to surrounding houses. Hatcher
said the facility would have a full-
time service provider and would
be built using federal Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban De-
velopment grant funds. He said
there are seven such fadlifies in
Macon.
River Edge CEO Dr. Shan-
non Gordon, a Forsyth resident,
also pledged her support for
the project, nol ng that it would
give devdopmenudly disabled
residents of Monroe County a
safe phce to live
Dumas Road resident Priscilla
Grant Doster, who has served on
the River Edge advisory board
for the past 15 years, said she
has been trying for years to get
funding to build a personal care
home in Monroe County. She
said the ones like it in Macon are
well-maintained with continual
care and said their residents
benefit from having their own
home
HopeweU Road resident Mar-
tie Brown said she has an adult
special needs son, Chandler,
and said Monroe County has a
need for this type of community
personal care home She said its
residents would become "a little
f~m~ytogethee.'
Another proponent of the
project, Carol Davison, agreed
with Brown that the local need
for a personal care home is great,
saying she is presently taking
care of an adult who is devel-
opmentally disabled due to an
accident.
Only one person, Zellner
Road resident Cheryl Pinholster,
opposed the pmposed project,
saying she didn't think it was
the fight location for such a
home. Pinholster said the area is
heavily wooded and said she was
concerned about the safety of the
home's residents.
After about 10 minutes of
discussion, P & Z member Red
Ezdle motioned to approve,
which was seconded by Chuck
Benson. The P 8 Z board then
voted to approve the conditional
use with chairwoman Connie
Gantt abstaini Gantt, who
said she's personally in support
of the personal care home, said
she abstained because she has
worked with River Edge.
Monroe County Commis-
sioners were expected to have
the final say on the matter at
their next scheduled meeting at
6 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 5.
State of Georgia Monroe County
