We noted earlier this month that rezoning requests for a Northeast Cobb Lidl grocery store and an expanded Starbucks at Paper Mill Village won’t be heard until February at the earliest.
But there are a couple of other development cases of interest in the East Cobb area that will be heard Tuesday by the Cobb Board of Commissioners.
Both are proposed revisions to stipulations for existing zoning categories.
One of them would permit a King’s Hawaiian fast-casual restaurant at the site of the former GTC Cobb Park 12 Cinema on Gordy Parkway at Shallowford Road (staff filing and renderings here).
That request by Stein Investment Group comes a year after the applicant got rezoning to convert the movie theater into a self-storage facility.
The current request would use a portion of that land for a 3,200-square-foot restaurant with 29 parking spaces. Since it’s a site plan amendment and not a full rezoning case, the application didn’t have to go before the Cobb Planning Commission.
The Cobb zoning staff didn’t make any comments on the site plan review, but Cobb DOT is recommending that the access points should be on Gordy Parkway on a right-in, left-out and right-out basis due to its proximity to Shallowford Road.
Another item on the Other Business agenda includes a revision in stipulations for the use of what’s a Walgreen’s pharmacy at 3033 Johnson Ferry Road.
That’s at the intersection of Johnson Ferry and Waterfront Drive, what will be the main access point for a residential area of a mixed-use development approved last year and that will include the East Cobb Church.
Mid-Atlantic Commercial Properties wants to change a stipulation in the neighborhood retail commercial (NRC) category that limits usage of the 1.28-acre tract for a pharmacy or drug store only.
The proposed future uses of that land, according to the agenda filing (you can read it here) would “include but not be limited to drug store/pharmacy, banking, restaurant, medical use.”
The property was zoned NRC in 2000 and is located on one of several outparcels on Johnson Ferry that were not part of the East Cobb Church (Northpoint Ministries) rezoning case.
Another is the adjacent Take 5 oil change business and unoccupied tracts located in a flood plain.
The full agenda for Tuesday’s zoning hearing can be found by clicking here. The meeting starts at 9 a.m. in the second floor board room of the Cobb government building (100 Cherokee St., downtown Marietta).
