Holy Development on Hold Batman

Oh sorry, the Batman part really has nothing to do with this.

"A Loganville developer has scrapped plans for a 25-acre church complex at U.S. 78 and Rosebud Road in Snellville.

Danny Herrmann of Diversified Development said he will formally withdraw plans for the religious complex at a Tuesday night meeting of the Snellville Planning Commission.

The church proposal would have included a 40,000-square-foot sanctuary, a 30,000-square-foot community center and seven church office buildings totaling about 42,000 square feet. Herrmann said the church that wanted to locate to the property could not secure financing. He would not name the church.

It would likely have drawn significant opposition, largely due to traffic concerns, had it gone before the Planning Commission Tuesday.

A traffic study conducted as part of Herrmann's rezoning request found that the project would generate 8,829 car trips each Sunday and 5,560 each weekday — including 619 during the evening rush hour."
