Forsyth County has called three “listening sessions” for August to seek public comment on residential design standards in the southeast part of the county.
The meetings are 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Aug. 1, at the Sharon Forks Library, 2820 Old Atlanta Road; and 6-8 p.m., Aug. 6 and 9, at the Old Atlanta Park Recreation Center, 810 Nichols Road.
“Public feedback is needed to assist with the establishment of standards that reflect distinctive character for future development” in the area bounded, approximately, by Ga. 400 on the west, McGinnis Ferry Road on the south and the vicinity of Buford Highway (Ga. 20) on the north, according to a county announcement.
The meetings will include “exercises addressing different design concepts and potential strategies to highlight community identity, so that community priorities may be integrated into the draft requirements,” the county said.
