Smyrna will ask for public opinion about development on Concord Road at a meeting 7-8:30 p.m. Wednesday at Brawner Hall, 3180 Atlanta Road.

The city proposes a 5-acre green space park west of the Hollis Street intersection and retail development on an acre west of Hollis Street. The city acquired the property during right of way acquisitions during a $17 million road improvement project that included adding a median on Concord Road from South Cobb Drive to Atlanta Road.
