Z-64 PBSH BEHIND HOME DEPOT
Public Built Student Housing complex behind Home Depot off Wade Green Road AND Shiloh Road -- Approved
SLUP-2 AT ORCHARD SQUARE MARKET (BELLS FERRY/575)
UPDATE: On 4/18/17 it as unamimously voted to deny this large 3-story facility near Publix, concerned about the long-term consequences to the shopping center as a whole.
A developer would like to build a massive 4 story commercial storage facility which will be over 100,000 square ft and contain 800 storage units in the Orchard Square Shopping Complex on Bells Ferry Road next to I-575. The building would be located between the Car Wash and the GA Elite Realty building. Almost all the buildings in this complex are one story and this 4-story building would tower over the area and be seen by “The Park at Bells Ferry” Subdivision. There are already 16 storage facilities in 30144, including one across the street from this shopping center.
The majority of businesses in the Orchard Square Shopping Center have expressed serious concerns with the size and nature of this business. This neighborhood shopping center is already struggling to attract more customers and this storage facility would be a deterrent, not an enhancement, to tenants of the complex. The shopping square businesses and residents surrounding it would benefit from a retail business that would complement the area, one that does not block or isn't a blight in the area, and is actually wanted by area residents.
