VAR-2026-01 — Construction of two (2) duplex structures, totaling four (4) dwelling units in Forest Park, GA

This variance request seeks to increase dwelling units and reduce setbacks on a Two-Family Residential property to permit construction of four units across two duplex structures. The approval supports residential growth in the city but involves density increases and minimal setback reductions that could affect surrounding community character. Public comment raised concerns about increased density and neighborhood impacts, though the Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve with conditions.
