On August 7, 2012 I presented the Vinings Village Homeowners Association notification of an upcoming re-zoning application by John Wieland Homes & Neighborhoods, requesting rezoning of the ~23-acre site from R30 to R20 OSC including the creation of up to 45 lots/homes. This was followed by a survey released by VVHA on August 9th. Based on the responses received and the overwhelming response to the survey, the “Settlement Road Committee” concluded its review of the rezoning application and recommended that the VVHA oppose the rezoning request.
The VVHA Board of Trustees has voted to formally accept the Committee’s recommendation and further recommend to the Vinings community and Cobb County that the rezoning request be denied. The VVHA’s recommendation is that the site retains its existing R30 zoning designation. The VVHA’s position to oppose the rezoning request is consistent with the feedback received from the community including the survey and emails in response to the initial announcement.
As of the date of this announcement, the VVHA’s request for a continuance has not been granted by the Cobb County Planning Commission, therefore members of the VVHA Board of Trustees will be speaking in opposition to the rezoning request at both the Planning Commission meeting on Thursday, September 6th and the Board of Commissioners meeting on Tuesday, September 18th.
Vinings homeowners who wish to voice their opinion on this matter should contact the Cobb County Planning Commission and Cobb County Board of Commissioners (www.cobbcountyga.gov) and/or attend the Planning Commission meeting at 9:00 a.m. on September 6th and the Board of Commissioners meeting at 9:00 a.m. on September 18th. The location of both meetings is 100 Cherokee Street, Marietta, GA 30090.
The VVHA Board wishes to extend its greatest appreciation to Jim Polk who chaired the Committee and to the other members Ross Bickers, Steve Goodsell, Bill Voegeli, James Bikoff, Martha Glisson and Bob Barker all of whom gave generously of their time and expertise as well as the many Vinings Homeowners who gave of their time to respond. We are fortunate to have such involved neighbors in the Vinings Community.
If you can be present at these meetings, we really need to get out and show our support for the VVHA!

Woodland Brook Detour Dates Announced
Posted by thunsicker in Vinings on June 8, 2012
I received the following email this morning from the Vinings Village Homeowners Association regarding the upcoming closing of Woodland Brook.
Woodland Brook Road will be closed from Keswick to Brandy Station starting June 18, 2012 through July 29, 2012. Map Credit: Cobb County
Woodland Brook will be closed from Keswick to Brandy Station starting June 18, 2012 through July 29, 2012. While Woodland Brook Road is closed, Village Residents can use Randall Farm Road as a detour route.
It is expected that Speed Humps on Randall Farm Road should prevent speeders along the residential street. Emergency response teams have been made aware of the pending road closure and have alternate plans to access the affected areas.
Signage providing detour direction around Vinings Village to neighboring communities have been strategically placed. It is hoped that as a by-product of the improvements, travelers who have used Woodland Brook Rd. as a pass-through to other destinations in the past, will find the detour routes more efficient for future travel.
