Peachtree Corners approves Korean Church on Medlock Bridge Road

The Peachtree Corners City Council recently approved a special use permit for a religious facility in an existing building at 3274 Medlock Bridge Rd. The office building is part of the Medlock Bridge Business Center, which includes four buildings.

Grace Korean Church will occupy a 16,740-square-foot building to serve approximately 200 congregants. No additions or alterations to the exterior of the building or site are being requested.

The city approved the request with several conditions including a shared parking agreement will be established between the church and the office park condominium association. Required inspections and interior finish permits will be obtained before occupancy.

If the city determines that church activities impact existing traffic, the city will notify the church and the church will be required to provide an off-duty police officer during those times when church related traffic needs to be managed.
