City of Dawsonville residents are shaking their heads after Monday night's planning commission meeting during which the commission voted to recommend amendments to the Atlanta Motorsports Park zoning stipulations for the city council to approve. The 2-1 vote means that park owner Jeremy Porter is one step closer to obtaining amendments to stipulations that were set in place when the property was changed to its current zoning. The amendments include the addition of lights to the park's go-kart track, an extension of the hours that the karts will be operated, the addition of a PA system and would lift some noise restrictions in the park on 15 days each year.
