Jekyll Island Authority proposes Master Plan amendment for campground expansion, safety complex

JEKYLL ISLAND, Ga. — The Jekyll Island Authority is proposing an amendment to its 2014 Master Plan to convert 12 acres of undeveloped land to expand the Jekyll Island Campground, and to convert approximately three acres of undeveloped area for construction of a public safety complex.

The land is currently described as "undeveloped" in the Official Code of Georgia, so a Master Plan amendment is required for the projects to move forward.

TRENDING: 

A public hearing will be held Nov. 7 at 5:30 p.m. at the Jekyll Island Convention Center, at 75 Beachview Drive North. During this hearing, the public can provide comments pertaining to the proposal.

Comments may also be submitted via the Jekyll Island website at www.jekyllisland.com/masterplan through Nov. 7.

The Board of Directors of the Jekyll Island Authority will consider approval or rejection of the proposed amendment at its regular Dec. 17 meeting at 9:30 a.m. at the Jekyll Island Convention Center.
