Gainesville to start annexation process again
City moves forward after last years dispute with Hall
Placeholder Image
Gainesville small business owner John Lloyd Jones said he compares the city’s proposal to annex 115 “island” properties in Hall County to the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting groups wanting tax-exempt status. The city is moving forward again with the annexation process after being stymied last year by county objections and claims the city wasn’t following its own annexation laws. The Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board and the Gainesville City Council are both holding public hearings and votes on Tuesday.
