The Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board voted unanimously Tuesday evening in favor of annexation and rezoning for a property that will house a new middle school for the Gainesville City School System. The result is a positive move forward for the new school, which GCSS superintendent Jeremy Williams said he is hoping will be open for the start of the 2022-2023 school year.
