The Duluth City Council voted recently to approve a special use permit by applicant Yong Soo Oh and property owner William Hsu Wu to operate a language school business at 3545 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard.

The CCB School of Atlanta relocated in 2010 from 4317 Abbotts Bridge Road to the building on 11.43 acres on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard. They currently occupy 4 of the 12 suites in the Howell Crossing shopping center.

The proposed 3,100 square foot expansion would contribute to an overall square footage of approximately 12,000-square feet of a 45,000 square foot building. Because the new location falls within the city’s Unified Development Code, a special permit is needed to operate a language school.

Current nearby tenants include Taco Mac, Waffle House, Chick-fil-A, Fat Crab Seafood Grill and a fitness studio. According to the city’s planning commission documents, “the CCB School of Atlanta provides a desirable daytime population to support the existing restaurant, retail and fitness uses in the shopping center.”
