An ordinance by the City Council of Atlanta to rezone properties at 745 Bolton Road NW and 745 Bolton Road Rear NW from R-4 (Single Family Residential) to MR-3 (Multifamily Residential) was favorably amended and approved. This change allows for the development of multifamily residential housing in an area previously designated for single-family homes. The ordinance, sponsored by Councilmembers Andrea L. Boone, Dustin Hillis, Marci Collier Overstreet, and Matt Westmoreland, aims to promote diversified urban environments, provide sufficient open space, and create attractive, neighborhood-serving commercial districts. It also recognizes the importance of the surrounding neighborhood's health, economic welfare, and safety. The rezoning specifically amends the official zoning map for Parcel ID 14 024100030049. Development under the MR-3 district designation is subject to 'Conditional Development' provisions as per Section 16-02.003 of the Zoning Ordinance, requiring the Director, Bureau of Buildings, to issue building permits only in compliance with attached conditions and any conditional site plan.
