U26-007 — Gas station/convenience store with fuel pumps and drive-thru restaurant (5,000 sq ft and 1,800 sq ft respectively) in South Fulton, GA
Welcome Foods requested rezoning from Mixed Use to General Commercial for a combined 6,800 square foot gas station, convenience store, and drive-thru restaurant on 2.13 acres. The Planning & Zoning Commission unanimously recommended denial, citing concerns about compatibility with the existing MIX designation, traffic impacts, and consistency with city development objectives.
