Public Comments
Hank Sanak who lives on Castle Lake Drive handed a list of potential code violations and added
that we seem to be turning our backs on them, and they continue to operate. He stated that he was
there to ask the Mayor and Council to address the last property on the list. As he understood, from
the Town administration, there was nothing that could be done regarding the matter as there were
no Town codes to prevent the operation. He added that they have a beautiful neighborhood on a
nice lake that they have spent thousands of dollars to maintain its beauty. Mr. Sanak stated that
having a commercial Bed & Breakfast in the subdivision did not enhance their community. The
property had also been used for parties and that it had disturbed some of the owners. It was a
private lake and they did not need strangers coming and going into the area. He declared that he
would appreciate the Council confronting the matter and eliminating that type of operation in
residential areas.

Mr. Sanak stated that he was told that it was not a commercial operation but it was advertised on
the internet and could be rented daily. He shared that they were trying as a community to make
Tyrone a beautiful place to live but, that they needed certain restrictions to keep it that way. In
closing, he stated that he did not represent the Castle Lake governing committee but had the
approval of several homeowners to state their concerns. He again asked Council to come up with
a resolution to eliminate that type of business and to ban it from the neighborhoods.

Public Hearing
1. Consideration for rezoning petition from applicant Daniel Dahlke for the rezoning of a 14.7-
acre tract with parcel number 0736074 from M-2 (Heavy Industrial) with conditions to M-2
(Heavy Industrial). Phillip Trocquet, Town Planner
Mr. Trocquet shared that applicant Daniel Dahlke submitted the rezoning petition on behalf of
property owner, Scott Moore for the rezoning of parcel number 0736074. The intent from the
applicant was to rezone to allow construction on the lot in the form of a concrete facility. Mr.
Trocquet added that the property was the largest tract of Phase VIII of Shamrock Industrial Park
which had a zoning condition on it since 2000. The zoning condition placed a moratorium on the
occupancy and construction of any properties in Phase VIII of Shamrock Industrial Park until a
secondary emergency ingress/egress drive was constructed to the industrial park. He added that
the secondary access had not been constructed although much effort had been put into finding
opportunities for the construction of the emergency ingress/egress drive. He shared that there was
still only one way in and out of the industrial park over the active CSX rail line. Due to railroad
construction, emergencies, or other situations, the train had blocked that crossing for hours at a
time at least 2-3 times a year. To date, no emergency had occurred simultaneous with the blocking
of the crossing, but it had disrupted business operations causing traffic delays on both sides of the
crossing.
Mr. Trocquet shared that the current zoning for the property was M-2 (Heavy Industrial) with
conditions. The proposed zoning was M-2 (Heavy Industrial) with the construction moratorium
condition removed. The existing land use was Vacant Production & Employment. The surrounding
zonings were AR and M-2. He detailed that the property history was part of Phase VIII of
Shamrock Industrial Park Zoning conditions were placed on the property in 2000, per staff’s
summary. He added that the property was fourteen acres.
Mr. Trocquet shared that regarding the compatibility with the Future Development Map and the
Comprehensive Plan, the petition to M-2 was consistent with the Future Development Map and
Comprehensive Plan in general. He added that the property was within the Production and
Employment character area which permitted, M-2 zoning. The property was also located adjacent
to the other M-2 zoned properties. Specific site conditions, zoning considerations, and property
history should be taken into account for the determination. He shared that the Planning
Commission recommended maintaining the construction moratorium on the property until
secondary emergency access was provided. The recommendation was approved 3-1 with
Commissioner Duncan in opposition.

Mr. Trocquet stated that under normal hazard and access conditions, the proposed zoning would
permit suitable uses with surrounding properties to the south and west. He added that the property
was adjoined by residential on the north and eastern portions of the property, and a one-hundred-
foot buffer would be required.
He shared that also under normal hazard and access conditions to the industrial park, the zoning
would not adversely affect adjacent properties to the west and south. Residential properties to the
north and east may be affected adversely, however, development conditions including buffers
would be present on the property to protect the impact on adjoining residential properties. The
petition would also adversely affect the other property owners in Phase VIII who would be
disproportionately burdened with the current zoning conditions if they were lifted for select
properties and not others.
Mr. Trocquet informed Council that given that there was a construction moratorium placed on the
property, reasonable economic use had been suspended until safety conditions via secondary
access had been provided to the industrial park. The sale of the property had occurred multiple
times since the zoning condition was placed on the property in 2000. The condition (and
subsequent value as a result) of the property had been known by each owner. He also shared that
the proposed removal of the construction moratorium without the provision of a secondary
ingress/egress point into the industrial park would exacerbate the current burden on emergency
and police services to access the businesses and people in the industrial park in the case of an
emergency with a train blocking the primary entrance. Mr. Trocquet recommended maintaining
the construction moratorium on the property until a secondary emergency ingress/egress was
provided to the industrial park. He added that if Council desired approval, staff recommended
tabling the petition until such a time that all property owners in Phase VIII would submit a rezoning
petition to remove the construction moratorium conditions.
Mayor Dial opened the public hearing for anyone that wished to speak in favor of the item.
Mr. Scott Moore, the applicant spoke. He stated that he owned the last tract in Shamrock Industrial
Park for approximately 4-5 years. Before purchasing, he was aware of the moratorium and was led
to believe that it would not be difficult to remove. He shared that he was being held, hostage. This
was the last tract of land in the entire industrial park and everyone was going about their business
every day within the park, the moratorium was a hindrance to him. Other business owners did not
care. He added that he owned Platinum Trucking. He shared that his trucks were parked at Georgia
Masonry every day. He stated that over four companies within the park were worth over a billion
dollars, he was just a small business owner.

Mr. Moore stated that if you look at the original plat, there was no place for a second entrance/exit.
The power company would not release land for that purpose. He asked, why he has to be the only
person in the park not to build his business, it was unfair to him and his family.
Ms. Sharon Griffies, who has a business on Mallory Court in the industrial park spoke in favor of
the petition. Ms. Griffies shared that she was the controller for DeBeer Granite and Marble, she
was speaking on behalf of the owner, Izak DeBeer. She stated that she had spoken to Mr. Perkins
in the past regarding the history of the property. She added that it was her understanding that the
developer was given permission to develop the land without an additional entrance/exit at the time.
She stated that recently, her staff was made to stay at work until 7:00 pm due to CSX blocking the
entrance. She believed that the developer should have been made accountable when developing
the property, that was when roads and curbing were normally placed. Mr. Moore should not be
accountable for making this happen. Ms. Griffies shared that having one way in and out affected
her employees at lunch also. They were unable to return to work due to the blockage. She shared
that she had spoken with other business owners and they were unlikely to contribute financially
for another ingress/egress due to the low impact on their business. She added that many businesses
such as theirs contribute to the Town of Tyrone, they generate business, house fifty employees,
and produce sales tax. Their business positively impacted Tyrone. She encouraged Council to vote
in favor of Mr. Moore’s request and added that their business was pleased to be an active member
of the business park.
Mayor Dial opened the public hearing for anyone that wished to speak in opposition of the item.
No one spoke.
Mayor Dial began a lengthy discussion regarding another option for Mr. Moore. Peachtree City
placed a condition on the Cresswind development for access onto their property for an emergency
exit from the industrial park. It was agreed upon, that the strip of land needed to be purchased and
an emergency exit could be placed. Mr. Moore shared that he did not understand how Aabby could
build a new facility near his property a couple of years ago and he was not allowed to continue.
Mr. Trocquet stated that the moratorium was placed on Phase VIII. Mr. Moore clarified that he
was being asked to purchase an additional piece of property in Phase I, put in an emergency road,
to be able to begin his development. Mayor Dial stated that if the industrial park had a Business
Owners Association, it would be up to them to finance and continue. Mr. Moore restated that the
remaining business owners knew what needed to be accomplished, but they would not participate
because they do not have to. This fell on him alone, it was not fair. Mayor Dial shared that the
issue had a long history.

Council Member Campbell reminded everyone that the second entrance through Cresswind was
through the efforts of the Mayor, Mr. Perkins, and Mr. Trocquet, not solely Peachtree City. He
added that business owners had also been contacted from the Town to move toward other options.
Mayor Dial added that a landscape company also attempted to reach business owners by phone.
Mr. Moore stated that all efforts should have been accomplished at the beginning of the
development.
Council Member Hill asked if there were additional options, other than lifting the moratorium and
the additional emergency exit through Cresswind? Mayor Dial stated, not to his knowledge.
Council Member Furr asked Mr. Moore if he had reached out to business owners with the new
option through Cresswind. Mr. Moore shared that he had reached out to several businesses and
they were not interested. He added that this should be left to the governing body, not the landowner.
Mr. Perkins stated that anytime the train tracks were blocked, we hear from business owners. He
added that a year ago, CSX had planned to temporarily shut down the crossing for repairs, he and
the Mayor had reached out to several stakeholders to discuss an alternative, no one wanted to meet.
We had accomplished what we could as the government to assist the business owners. We have
reached out to businesses, offered resources, looked at maps, and worked with Peachtree City. The
goal was to remind businesses that the crossing could be closed at any time for repairs, or that CSX
had the power to permanently shut down the crossing, which was unlikely. This benefits all
industrial park business owners; this was not only Mr. Moore’s problem or the Town’s. The Town
had accomplished what it could.
Mr. Moore stated that he understood that the crossing would be closed at times. He asked if there
was a law requiring two entrances/exits within a development? Mr. Trocquet shared that the Town
had the liberty to make land development decisions according to safety issues. Mr. Moore added
that since the development began, nothing had been accomplished concerning the issue. Mayor
Dial countered that a lot had been accomplished during this time. Mr. Moore restated that it was
unfair to hold him hostage with his 14-acres of land, give a small guy a break. Council Member
Hill asked if staff could send a letter to the business owners to explain all of the details and the
new development with Cresswind? Mr. Perkins shared that essentially business owners had been
contacted, not all with the new development. Council Member Furr asked how many acres were
in Phase VIII. Mr. Trocquet shared that there were approximately 20-acres that made up Phase
VIII.
The discussion began regarding the adjacent property owner, Miguel Almanza, and how the site
was currently being used as a dumpsite.

Council Member Furr asked Mr. Moore how many employees he had. He stated that he employed
twenty-two. He added that eighteen were contracted by Georgia Masonry, his biggest customer.
He shared that he had paid years of property taxes, and most of his employees were already
stationed within the industrial park. Council Member Campbell stated that essentially, Mr. Moore
was already established in the park and working. Mr. Moore stated that he did not have the money
to place an additional road within the park and he should not have to. He asked why it was taking
so long to get something accomplished. He had also spoken with Georgia Power regarding their
easement, to no avail. Why continue kicking the can down the road?
Mayor Dial inquired about the Fire Marshall’s response to the issue. Mr. Perkins stated that the
Fire Marshall had no issue with lifting the moratorium. Mr. Trocquet shared that initially Fire
Marshall, David Scarborough supported the moratorium. Mr. Perkins shared that during his tenure
as Police Chief, the Fire Marshall at the time was fine with lifting the moratorium. He added that
he was on board with the Fire Marshall’s decision. If there were an emergency, there would be no
problem with getting in and out of the park, that was his position as Police Chief. He added that
he would not speak for Chief Mundy. Mayor Dial clarified that multiple Fire Marshalls had agreed
to lift the moratorium. Mr. Trocquet also clarified that the original intent was for the primary
developer to create an ingress/egress on the property.
Council Member Campbell asked for Mr. Davenport’s opinion. Mr. Davenport reminded Council
of a similar situation with the Market Hill (Greencastle Road) business park off Dogwood Trail
and Highway 74. He shared that a condition was placed when the development was approved, due
to the number of parcels and it only has one entrance. The subdivision was slated for thirty lots
and Council placed the condition for no more than fifteen lots until an additional entrance was
added. The GDOT owned the right-of-way along the property line. The Town received several
new property owner phone calls regarding building on their lots. The Town maintained the
condition. Between them, they contracted a traffic study. The traffic in 1992 had not risen to the
level that was anticipated in the future. The original traffic condition did not match the initial
condition placed on the development. Also, GDOT had placed a limited easement on the right-of-
way, which made an additional entrance cost approximately $750,000. Essentially, the businesses
joined together to form an association and raised a portion of the needed funding, including the
traffic study. The Town recognized that the entrance was cost-prohibitive and the traffic did not
currently, at the time, match the original projection. The Planning Commission revisited the
project, held a public hearing, and recommended the removal of the condition from each property
within the development. Council then held its public hearing and approved the removal of the
condition.

Mr. Davenport echoed that the Town and his firm had spent through the years, numerous hours on
the Shamrock Industrial Park situation. The reason the property had changed hands so many times
was that the risk of not being able to develop the property was apparent. He added that it may seem
that the Town was not working with Mr. Moore, however, Mr. Moore knew the condition placed
on the property before the purchase. The difference in the situations was that the businesses worked
together, and provided an additional traffic study indicating that traffic did not call for the
additional entrance, they also worked together to raise funding on their own. They did the research.
Mr. Davenport added the Town had provided an additional option. He reminded everyone that the
access to Cresswind only needed to be an access, not a sanctioned road. Normally, a road would
cost $100,000 per mile. What factors have been brought to Council to remove the condition? Mr.
Davenport cautioned Council that even if the condition of Mr. Moore’s property was lifted, that
did not mean that the entire park’s conditions had been lifted. He added that if an established
property were to have a fire or other irreparable damages, and would need to rebuild, they could
not due to the condition in place. Similar to Market Hill, public hearings would need to be held for
each property in the industrial park for the condition to be lifted. The hardship did not fall on one
individual, it fell on the entire park. He added that he had been involved with the Shamrock
Industrial Park’s second entrance since 2008. At that time the message that the Town gave the
developer was that a second entrance needed to be placed before any further development took
place.
Council Member Howard mentioned that the developer did not get the message early on as he
continued to sell the property within the industrial park. Mr. Davenport disclosed that his firm had
represented Mr. Guthrie in the past, but not at this time. Mr. Guthrie did attempt to build the road
in question, but there were wetlands within the path and he did not obtain the proper permits at the
time, the Environmental Protection Department placed a stop-work order around 2006.
Mayor Dial shared his thoughts that similar to Market Hill, there was an option. That option may
not be cost-efficient. He would rather the property owners research the cost of a gravel road, then
come back to Council. Mayor Dial asked Mr. Moore if he would be willing to do the research. Mr.
Moore stated that he would, however, the strip of land would cost more to gravel than his entire
property.
Council Member Furr asked when the road would be available through Peachtree City? Mr.
Perkins shared that the developer was currently cutting into that section. Mayor Dial stated that
two years ago, the developer of Cresswind was being a little resistant. He said that the cut would
be available within 3-4 months at that time.

Council Member Furr asked for the distance between properties. Mr. Trocquet stated that the
property in question was 1,200 feet long, 1.73 acres, and was sold in 2020 for $0. The value
throughout the years was $100,000, $79,000, and $42,000.
Council Member Campbell clarified that Mr. Moore would not be the sole purchaser of the land,
it would be a collective effort from all Shamrock Industrial Park property owners. Together they
could raise the money for the property and place the gravel emergency exit for the park, and
maintain it.
Mr. Trocquet created a visual from the Fayette County GIS mapping system. He indicated that
C.W. Matthews also had an access to the Cresswind property. Both properties abut each other and
the Peachtree City property. Mr. Perkins declared that the owner of the strip in question for the
gravel road (KH Peachtree, LLP) was a subsidiary of the property owned by Cresswind (Cresswind
Peachtree City Community Association, Inc). All agreed that ownership could be problematic
regarding access to the property. Mr. Davenport stated that the shape of the land indicated that
there were no utilities and it could not be developed. Being that it was purchased by a subsidiary
of the developer indicated that a road could be prevented from being established outside of the
development. He added that it also indicated that they were not actively following the condition of
the development which could jeopardize their zoning. He added that currently no facts had been
retained, so no conclusion could be determined at this point regarding the Cresswind cut-through.
Council Member Hill asked if the item should be tabled.
Council Member Campbell stated that there were two separate issues, lifting the moratorium, and
the emergency exit. Mr. Davenport agreed that the presence of a road would relinquish the
moratorium. He added that even if Council decided to lift the moratorium it would have to be lifted
from each property within the park.
Mr. Moore began a discussion regarding the moratorium. He stated that his parcel in Phase VIII
was the only parcel with the moratorium attached. Mr. Davenport reiterated that if a catastrophe
were to occur, the other properties in the park would not be allowed to rebuilding due to the
moratorium. Council Member Howard asked for clarification regarding new buildings versus re-
building. Mr. Davenport declared that as long as buildings were outside of Phase VIII, and had
not been built upon, building could occur due to its location outside of Phase VIII. If an existing
building experiences fire damage, property owners would be unable to rebuild due to the lack of a
second entrance. Mr. Moore shared that Aabby built a new building and the muffle shop rebuilt
due to a fire. Mr. Davenport stated that he would be happy to sit down with Mr. Moore regarding
the issue.
Council Meeting – Social Distancing/YouTube Live
May 6, 2021
Page 9 of 13
Council Member Furr restated a question if any building in the park were to burn down, could they
rebuild? Mr. Davenport restated that with his experience and a condition of this such nature in
place, damage would create the potential of a nonconforming lot, due to the absence of the
emergency exit. He added that the condition was geared particularly toward Phase VIII, and Phase
VIII was barred. It raised the specter of all other businesses being able to rebuild.
A discussion began regarding steps Council should take by moving forward. Mr. Davenport
suggested taking action as Council did in the past with the Market Hill subdivision. Council
Member Furr asked Mr. Moore if he would be willing to put in the work to communicate with
property owners if they would contribute to the outcome. Mr. Moore stated that yes, he would
continue to seek information. Discussion continued regarding the process. Mr. Davenport stated
that if the petition was denied and Mr. Moore came to Council with information regarding the
inability to create a second exit, Council had the authority to advertise all properties for the August
Planning Commission meeting and the following Council meeting to remove the condition for all
properties. He then explained to Mr. Moore that if Council chose to deny the petition, there would
be a six-month hold on the petition to return for another rezoning. However, if he came back to
Council with information stating that all means and research for an emergency exit were exhausted,
and Council agreed, they could then begin the process to remove the condition. Council had the
authority to instruct staff to file a petition on behalf of all property owners for Planning
Commission and Council public hearings. This could occur as early as early September for a vote.
Council Member Furr made a motion to deny the petition.
Council Member Campbell seconded the motion. Motion was approved 4-0.
Council instructed staff to communicate with Mr. Moore to assist him in a way that was proper.
Mr. Perkins reminded everyone that Mr. Moore needed to reach out to the property owner of the
strip of land that was under discussion if it was for sale and for how much, also the cost of the
emergency exit and to contact C.W. Matthews regarding their potential access.
Public Comments
Mr. Sanak returned to the podium and asked Council for an answer regarding the Air B&B. Mr.
Perkins shared that during public comments, was not a time for the public discussion on matters.
It was not meant for a back-and-forth discussion with Council and staff.

Staff Comments
Mr. Perkins stated that he and Mr. Sanak had emailed several times that week. He shared that
regarding Mr. Sanak’s concern, a few years ago a resident came in with the same complaint from
the Briarhill subdivision for a Vrbo listing. We were receiving complaints from residents regarding
parties being thrown at the rental. Through his research for local ordinances, he found that an Air
B&B was not a Bed and Breakfast, there were ordinances and regulations for Bed and Breakfasts.
As a result, from his research several years ago, there were cities at the time creating ordinances
banning short-term rentals. After speaking with the legal department and through more research,
he found that it was not a good idea to ban them, as it did not bode well in court. The Town looked
at other options. Most cities required the homeowner to apply for something similar as a business
license, with safety and quality of life regulations. This, however, did not solve Mr. Sanak’s issue,
as the neighbor could still rent out a room. He shared that a bipartisan bill had been in the State
House for a couple of years now. The bill could ban governments from banning short-term rentals.
At best, the Town could issue a permit and regulate a hotel/motel tax. He added that he and Mr.
Trocquet had discussed the matter extensively, and currently there were approximately thirteen
Air B&B’s operating in Tyrone, this was also difficult to track. Tracking required specific days to
check availability which constantly changes. Regulation would be very difficult. They were
difficult to locate and difficult to track how many nights a specific property was rented. This would
require an additional staff member. He added that he did understand Mr. Sanak’s complaint and
others. Mr. Perkins stated that staff had completed many hours of research on the matter, and that
staff would move forward with Council’s wishes, however, it would require an additional staff
member. He shared that he did not disagree with Mr. Sanak in that, the issue could be problematic,
but that staff had exalted all remedies at this point. Mr. Trocquet shared that Fayette County Fire
and Environmental Health would also require regulations regarding this use of the property.
Regarding the “party home”, Fayette County Code Enforcement was contacted regarding general
home occupancy regulations, not rentals.
Council Member Campbell shared that residential Home Owner’s Associations (HOA) should also
have regulations regarding this type of use. Mr. Perkins agreed and added that the HOA’s may
have more stringent rules than the local government. Mr. Sanak spoke from the audience. He
agreed with requiring a business license and the hotel/motel tax and regulations.
Mr. Perkins stated that it was National Clerk’s Week and shared his appreciation for her work and
dedication to the Town.

Mr. Perkins invited everyone to the Tyrone Museum on Saturday, May 15, 202, at 10:00 am for
its grand opening. Music and refreshments would also be on hand. The ribbon-cutting would be at
11:00 am, then the Museum would be open for tours. He added that at 6:30 pm that evening at
Shamrock Park, Fayette County, and Tyrone would host live music, inflatables, and food trucks.
Finally, at 8:30 pm there would be a fireworks show. The event was to honor Fayette County for
its Bi-Centennial celebration.
Mr. Perkins shared that the Town was approached by a production company for permission to
lease the Firehouse for a filming project. The lease would be for sixty-two days, beginning May
15, 2021, for $100 per day, with an option for an additional fifteen days. The standard contract
was sent to Mr. Garcia.
Council Member Howard made a motion to direct Mayor Dial to sign the agreement from Mr.
Garcia for the lease of the former Firehouse for his filming project.
Council Member Furr seconded the motion. Motion was approved 4-0.
Mayor Dial stated for the record in a humorous manner that although Mr. Garcia was a “shady
character”, he too could support the motion.
Council Comments
Council briefly discussed details regarding their roles in the Bi-Centennial parade.
Council Member Campbell wished all the Mothers a Happy Mother’s Day.
Council Member Howard stated that there needed to be a temporary “opening soon” sign placed
in front of the Tyrone Museum. Mr. Perkins mentioned that he would check if the Police Trailer
was available for that purpose. Council Member Howard also mentioned that she knew of a local
artist that could also create an “opening soon” sign.

Council Member Furr made a motion to move into Executive Session for one (1) matter of
threatened litigation.
