The Lilburn City Council recently approved the development of an auto/truck service center on the north side of the Plaza Las Americas mall at 733 Pleasant Hill Road. The former Lowe’s home improvement store was renovated as a mall in 2016.

The owner will develop the auto/truck service center on the north side of the mall within the 6,720 square foot freestanding greenhouse structure. The proposed space will accommodate four bay doors parallel to, but not visible from, Pleasant Hill Road. No addition to the building or parking is proposed. There is over 300 feet including a 90-foot vegetated buffer between the site and nearby neighborhoods.

Other conditions of approval prohibit body or paint repair, outside storage or outside displays. There was no objection from the public.
