Help us petition Gwinnett County for rezoning

My family and I are residents of Loganville, GA. We bought our agricultural land in 2015 from a family who owned it since 1900. Originally the land was 50 acres and used to farm soybeans. The land was parted out into 5 acres lots to be given to members of the original family. Three of these lots are still used for agriculture, two of which are zoned RA200. We rely heavily on our 5-acre farm for sustenance; it's not just a plot of land but our home and source of livelihood. However, the current R100 zoning is limiting us from fully utilizing the potential of our land.

Rezoning our property to RA200 would allow us greater freedom in managing our farm and its animals. This change would not only benefit my family but it would contribute positively to the local economy by promoting sustainable farming practices.

Rezoning costs $1000 for the application on a property over 5 acres plus $150 to display a sign.

According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), small farms like ours make up 90% of all farms in America, contributing significantly towards food security (USDA Census). By supporting this rezoning request, you will be supporting local agriculture and food security in Loganville.

We are currently certified by the USDA's National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP). We also hold an Egg Candling License by the Georgia Department of Agriculture. We are applying to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service to help conserve this farm for the foreseeable future.

We urge you to consider supporting us as we plea for rezoning from a personal perspective - it's about more than policy; it's about securing a future for my family on this land we love so much, creating a community, and preserving green space.
