The Peachtree Corners City Council recently approved a special use permit to allow for an auto repair and storage facility on 6.89 acres at 4285 South Old Peachtree Road.
The property, bounded by Buford Highway, South Old Peachtree Road and North Berkeley Lake Road was not zoned for automobile service/repair shops.
The City council approved the permit with conditions including a requirement that no vehicle storage will be allowed in the front yard. Vehicle storage will be screened by a solid wood fence, masonry wall, or slatted chain-link fence at least eight feet high. All vehicle maintenance and mechanical work must be conducted within an enclosed building. The existing magnolia trees at the front of the property must be preserved and no new parking spaces may be constructed between the existing office structure and South Old Peachtree Road.
