Public Hearing Item # 1 - ZONING MODIFICATION CASE #ZM-2026-02. (Council District 4.) Consideration of a major zoning modification request for the property at 55 Valley Hill Road to allow for changes to the previously-approved site plan for a townhome development, which was approved by the Stockbridge City Council via three cases on November 13, 2023. The cases included 1) Comprehensive Plan Amendment Case #CP-2023-02 (which changed the property’s future land use designation to High-Density Residential); 2) Rezoning Case #RZ-2023-03 (which assigned the zoning district of MFR (Multiple Family Residential) to the property; and 3) Variance Case #VR-2023-02 (which approved a variance to reduce the front yard setbacks of the townhome lots from the required 50 feet in the MFR district to 30 feet). The previous applicant / owner / developer for CP2023-02, RZ-2023-03, and VR-2023-02 was D. R. Horton, Inc., represented by Tiffany Hogan. The previously-approved, 149-unit townhome development was not built, and the property was sold to a new owner. Now, a new applicant, Yashesh Shah of Shree Developers Group (represented by Asia Mosee) wishes to build a revised townhome development with 91 units. Further, the applicant proposes to subdivide the subject property into two parcels for the purpose of building on the southern parcel only and selling the northern parcel. The applicant is therefore requesting the approval of a major zoning modification from RZ-2023-03 to allow for the approval of a revised site plan which shows the development of the southern portion of the property only. The zoning and future land use designation of the property would not change. The current property owner is OTAC Development Group, LLC. The property is located in Land Lot 69 of Land District 12, and it contains 24.908 +/acres within the Stockbridge City Limits. The applicant is proposing to build the townhome development on 11.311 acres within the southern portion of the property, south of the existing creek.

Consideration of a major zoning modification request for the property at 4882 North Henry Boulevard to allow for changes to the previously-approved site plan for a townhome development, which was approved by the Stockbridge City Council via three cases on February 12, 2024; and to request the removal of five (5) zoning conditions that were included with the rezoning of the property. The cases included 1) Comprehensive Plan Amendment Case #CP-2023-09 (which changed the property’s future land use designation to Medium-Density Residential), Rezoning Case #RZ-2023-10 (which rezoned the property to MFR (Multiple Family Residential); and Variance Case #VR-2023-06 (which granted a variance to reduce the front yard setbacks of the townhome lots on the north side of North Henry Boulevard and the west side of Center Street from the required 50 feet in the MFR District to 30 feet). The previous applicant for CP2023-09, RZ-2023-10, and VR-2023-06 was Forestar (USA) Real Estate Group, Inc., represented by J. Alexander Brock of Smith, Gambrell, & Russell, LLP. The previously-approved, 90-unit townhome development was not built, and the property was sold to a new owner. Now, a new applicant, Aaron Rissler of Apex Stockbridge, LLC, represented by Sara Shirk of Falcon Design, wishes to build a revised townhome development with 90 units. The applicant is requesting the approval of a major zoning modification from Ordinance #RZ-2023-10 to allow for the approval of a revised site plan, and to request the removal of five (5) of the twelve (12) zoning conditions that were required as part of the approval of RZ-2023-10. The five zoning conditions which the applicant is requesting to be removed are listed below (numbered from the ordinance). 1. Site Plan—The proposed townhome development shall be constructed according to a design which is similar to the one that is shown on the applicant’s submitted site plan, entitled, “North Henry Townhomes: Forestar Zoning Plan”, which was prepared by Atwell Group on 12/01/23 and received by the Planning and Zoning Staff on 12/04/23.

Presented by: Linda Logan Item # 3 - UPDATE TO THE CITY OF STOCKBRIDGE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE. Consideration of a resolution to allow for a major update to the City of Stockbridge’s Unified Development Code (UDC) for the purposes of allowing for more innovative uses; for including more relevant standards; for making various clarifications; and for other purposes. A draft update has been prepared by a consultant, in collaboration with the Community Development Department Staff and the UDC stakeholder committee. The update would revise the previouslyadopted UDC from March 14, 2022 and its subsequent amendments. Its approval and adoption would result in a new UDC version to become effective upon the City Council’s adoption in 2026, and it would replace all previous versions of the UDC.
