Georgetown Council considers downtown renewal, commission appointment

The Georgetown Town Council reviewed a plan to renew the Downtown Development District and received a letter of interest for a vacant Planning Commission seat during its June 22 meeting. Meanwhile, a supportive housing panel began drafting a report and the Board of Adjustment set a hearing on a roadway-width variance.

Town Council

The council held a regular meeting on June 22 with an agenda that included a presentation on the Downtown Development District renewal plan. The plan is detailed in an 80-page document. No action was taken, as minutes have not yet been published.

Council members also reviewed a letter of interest from Jennifer Weaver, who seeks appointment to fill a vacancy on the Planning Commission. A formal appointment may be acted upon at a future meeting.

An overview of town operations and projects covered updates on the Parson Lane Trailhead, a planned police and public works facility, and the US 113/18-404 intersection. The council then entered executive session to preliminarily discuss site acquisitions for public capital improvements. Possible action on items discussed in the closed session was listed but no outcome has been reported.

A submitted public correspondence regarding the confederate flag issue was noted on the agenda, but details of the letter were not disclosed.

Supportive Housing Issues Committee

The Supportive Housing Issues Committee met on June 24 to develop content and recommendations for a report on supportive housing. The committee also approved minutes from its June 4 meeting and held a public comment period. No further details on the report’s scope or timeline were available.

Board of Adjustment

A public hearing is scheduled—or was held—on July 1 for a variance request at 114 North Bedford Street. The applicant seeks to reduce interior roadway width from 25 feet to 10 feet. The board also planned to approve minutes from its January 7, 2026 meeting. Results of the hearing were not available as minutes have not been published.
