The Columbia County Planning Commission unanimously rejected a request to rezone over three acres for a Lowes Foods supermarket and associated retail space, following withdrawal by Intrepid Development Company due to insufficient neighborhood support. The Board of Commissioners will make a final decision on the request on March 17.

Additionally, the commission disapproved TerraForm Companies' request for a Jiffy Lube and restaurants due to inadequate planning for sewer connection. TerraForm also withdrew its application for further refinement. In a separate matter, a 37-acre parcel was approved for rezoning to Data Center zoning for the White Oak Technology Park project.
