Cleveland Highway Subdivison Makes Locals Angry

Feel like you've heard this story before?

You're not alone. These fights are springing up all over Lake Lanier as the pace of development increases. The latest dispute is on the Cleveland Highway, on the north end of Lake Lanier. 

Cleveland Highway LLC, a development company from Lawrenceville wants a 20-slip community dock plus around 20 homes. They would be built on around seven acres of land just south of the U.S. 129 bridge across the river from Chattahoochee Landing. 

The homes would have less than half an acre each which didn't win the project much favor with the planning board. The board's report, which recommended denial of the project, also commented negatively on the lack of undisturbed open space planned for the project and the proposed minimum 2,000-square-foot homes, some 500 feet below the area's average.

Home prices would probably range from $600,000 to more than $1 million.
