The Dunwoody Planning Commission has deferred a decision on the rezoning of two properties in the Dunwoody Village, giving members of the city’s homeowners association extra time to search for county records they say prove the reNOTES zoning would violate a zoning condition from the 1970s. “The records are there,” said Bob FisTMPL: cella, president of the Dunwoody HomePICKUP: owners Association, at a July 13 Planning MODIFIED BY Commission meeting. “We just have to CH AR 07-14-21 get to them.” On Nov. 30, 2020, the Dunwoody City APPROVAL Council approved a rezoning to remake the area known as Dunwoody Village – a of stores and shopping centers LAST MODIFIED: July 15, 2021collection 4:35 PM – into a mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly spot. However, due to a dispute about the size of the buffer area between the Village and neighboring residences, the owner of one of those shopping centers – The Shops at Dunwoody at 5500 Chamblee Dunwoody Road – sued the city. The owner, Peachtree Shops of Dunwoody LLC, maintained that the buffer zone limited the available redevelopment area. Because of the lawsuit, the council removed The Shops of Dunwoody, along with an adjacent car wash that’s also part of the lawsuit, from the rezoning.

The main point of contention between the city and the property owners was a buffer of about 150 feet between the western property line of the Village and a subdivision called Dunwoody West. In order to resolve the lawsuit and get the rezoning in place to make headway on plans to revamp Dunwoody Village, the city is now recommending the space between the Village and the residences stay at about 150 feet, while offering a compromise to property owners. “We’re proposing a 35-foot minimum buffer, and … an additional 115 feet of mandatory open space,” said Planning and Zoning Manager Paul Leonhardt. He added that the open space could be something like a plaza or a green space area, but could not have any buildings. He said there are no immediate plans for development. In the 1970s, neighbors around the Dunwoody Village negotiated a 150-foot buffer with the developer at that time. At the meeting, Fiscella said the zoning condition would have to be met by any subsequent rezonings of the property. Fiscella asked the Planning Commission to defer their recommendation on the rezoning so the DHA could request records from DeKalb County. Read the full story at reporternewspapers.net.

Sidewalk project complete Dunwoody has completed a sidewalk project along Tilly Mill Road. The new 5-foot sidewalk is on the west side of Tilly Mill Road between North Peachtree Road and Womack Road. As part of the project, the road was also widened to accommodate a new 4-foot wide bicycle lane on both sides of the street. The city also replaced a short section of the sidewalk on the east side of Tilly Mill Road. The $1.6 million project was funded by local sales tax revenue. — SAMMIE PURCELL
