White Bluff Road Retail Plan Heads to Council | Savannah News

A developer eyes a vacant lot on White Bluff Road in Savannah’s south side, proposing a retail strip after rezoning from residential — a move the Planning Commission approved but now awaits City Council’s final decision. Concerns center on what kind of businesses would fit: while neighborhood shops are acceptable, fears linger over car dealerships or storage facilities too close to homes. The developer agreed to exclude those, seeking compromise. Some residents push for affordable senior housing or tiny homes instead, but the developer argues the land’s size and city zoning make that impractical. Officials note the current zoning leaves the land essentially undevelopable — and vacant lots aren’t ideal. The Council’s vote will decide if this retail project moves forward.
