Cobb Commissioners approved on Tuesday a five-member committee that will help decide redevelopment issues in the Mableton area.

Cobb began work last year on a new form-based code for Mableton that is designed to make the area a more livable community for seniors, and incorporates mixed uses.

The new Warrant Committee will hear development cases that deviate from the form-based code provisions, such as some building setbacks and parking areas.

The committee will include two community development and transportation staff, along with one water development staff member.
