HALL COUNTY -- An 880-home active-adult community off Ahaluna Drive was recommended for approval Tuesday night by the Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board. The board gave its OK quickly and without discussion. Board member Jane Fleming briefly questioned Tad Braswell of Oak Hall Companies, the developer, about the company studying traffic 7-9 a.m. and 4-6 p.m. “I know there’s a lot of traffic later, after 6 p.m., for restaurants, shopping and just normal stuff,” Fleming said.
