The Brookhaven City Council recently approved updates to the Peachtree Overlay District with the intent of providing more user-friendly regulations that reflect the unique needs of the area along Peachtree Road from the Atlanta border to Ashford Dunwoody Road.

In place of one overlay that provides overall zoning and use regulations for the entire area, the update provides “streetscape only” guidelines for the whole area, with new “Peachtree Road Districts” that will further regulate use, density and design in specific parts of the overlay.
