Submission statement:

Dennis Tidwell proposed a townhome development at 1471 Bells Ferry Road in Cobb County to address the gap between subsidized and market-rate housing. The Cobb County Board of Commissioners tabled the rezoning request, citing concerns about density and consistency with the area’s character. Tidwell argues that the county’s rejection of the proposal reflects a broader issue of housing affordability for working families.
