Project Overview
Special Public Interest District 12 covers the commercial core of the Buckhead community surrounding the two malls and the major high rise office developments. This zoning overlay district was one of the first ever written in the City and one of the last to be incorporated into the underlying zoning. The Buckhead CID is currently seeking funding through the Atlanta Regional Commission to update this district to achieve the following goals:
- Ensure high quality redevelopment consistent with current market offerings
- Maintain high density mixed-use transit oriented node
- Simplify administration Simplify general understanding – consolidate zoning, SPI-12 and SPI-19 where overlaid
- Use SPI-1 (downtown CBD) as a model for revision
- Protect adjacent neighborhoods
- Address quality of life issues necessary to create more defined sense of community
- Identify potential common elements that can be incorporated to help achieve cohesive community identity and sense of place
- Incorporate a combination of regulations and incentives to achieve the type of development consistent with the character and value expected for Buckhead.
