Johns Creek residents will have a chance to comment Monday, Nov. 16, on a proposal for seven detached homes at 5700 Abbotts Bridge Road.
According to the City Council agenda, the public hearing is scheduled during the 7 p.m. meeting at City Hall, 11360 Lakefield Drive.
Aztec Eagle Properties LLC, represented by Eric Johansen, is seeking to rezone approximately 4.02 acres from AG-1, an agricultural district, to R-4, a single-family dwelling district. The application is identified as RZ-26-0003.
In its letter of intent, the applicant proposes homes with at least 3,000 square feet of heated living space and estimates values starting around $1 million.
Seven homes on the stated acreage would represent approximately 1.74 homes per acre. The applicant says the proposal falls within the Medlock Character Area’s allowance of up to two homes per acre for infill development.
The applicant estimates the subdivision would generate about 87 daily vehicle trips. That figure is a projection rather than a count of existing traffic.
The application’s environmental analysis identifies wetlands on the eastern portion of the property and a stream subject to state and city buffers. The applicant states that any wetland encroachment would require permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
The surrounding area includes established residential subdivisions and Abbotts Hill Elementary School, located at 5575 Abbotts Bridge Road.
The council agenda also lists three consent items: renewal of a radio agreement with Fulton County, adoption of a Public Art Master Plan and an office lease with the Department of Veterans Services at the Community Clubhouse at Newtown Park.
Residents wishing to speak can submit a comment card to the city clerk. Anyone needing accessibility assistance should contact the clerk’s office promptly at 678-512-3212.
