Atlanta City Council has approved the rezoning of 2036 Phillips Drive SE from R-4 (Single Family Residential) to R-4A (Single Family Residential). The property, which spans 0.239 acres and fronts 130 feet on the east side of Phillips Drive SE, is located in Land Lot 7 of the 14th District, Fulton County. The change allows for more flexible single-family residential development under the R-4A zoning classification. The rezoning was requested by Alicia Encalade on behalf of FCS/Ministries/Charis South Atlanta and falls under Neighborhood Planning Unit Z (NPU-Z) in Council District 1. The application received favorable recommendations from the zoning staff, the Neighborhood Planning Unit (NPU), and the Zoning Review Board (ZRB) before being approved by the City Council.
This rezoning allows for increased flexibility in single-family residential development in the area, supporting potential growth and housing availability. It aligns with the city's efforts to optimize land use while maintaining the residential character of the neighborhood.
