Gainesville to vote on annexing 'island' properties
Placeholder Image
Gainesville City Council plans to hold the second vote on annexing 115 “island” properties at a May 21 hearing. Islands are defined as unincorporated areas of the county that are surrounded by city property. In December, the city held a public hearing and voted to approve the annexation, but put the second vote on hold after Hall County filed an objection with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs.
