25-164 — 320-unit multifamily residential development with 10,200 square feet of ground floor commercial space in Chamblee, GA
This Development of Community Impact (DCI) proposes a major mixed-use project with 320 multifamily units and commercial space on 15.736 acres along Century Boulevard. The project requires multiple variances and waivers from zoning standards, including reduced setbacks, increased driveway widths, and parking placement exceptions. Staff recommends conditional approval of most variances and waivers, though it recommends denial of requirements for primary residential entrances to face the street and for type I/II construction on taller buildings.
