Casey Majewski, Dawsonville planning director, along with Public Works Operations Manager Trampas Hansard, presented at Monday's city council meeting an overview of development expected within the next five years inside the city limits. Because of the influx of subdivisions in the city, Majewski presented the status of each subdivision currently in development, as well as those proposed and those yet to file any applications. Four subdivisions are currently in the development phase: Rainhill off Perimeter Road; Red Hawk off Burt Creek Road; Creekstone phase one off Hwy. 53 W; and Maple Heights off Angela Lane and Maple Street S. Together, the four subdivisions will contain 450 units once completed, which Majewski said could take around 17 months.
