A development company that is presently converting the former GTC Cobb Park 12 Cinema complex in East Cobb for a self-storage facility wants to use a portion of that property to build a standalone restaurant.
Filings with the Cobb Zoning Office show a request by Stein Investment Group to amend a site plan for a special land-use request approved in 2021 at the northeast intersection of Gordy Parkway near Shallowford Road.
The request, which is scheduled to be heard by Cobb commissioners Oct. 18, calls for taking out part of the former cinema parking lot for the restaurant (see site plan below), which would contain 3,200 square feet and have 29 parking spaces.
The application was filed Sept. 13 (you can read through it here) and there isn’t a staff analysis and recommendation yet; site plan changes don’t have to go before the Cobb Planning Commission.
Stein Investment received a special land-use permit required in Cobb for storage facilities to build 101,190 square feet of self-storage space. Plans also called for the building of a 33,785-square-foot-building adjacent to that, with a basement.
There aren’t many other details yet about the restaurant; the site plan notes that there will be two-way access on Gordy Parkway and right-in and right-out access on Shallowford Road. The site plan and accompanying renderings also show a double canopied drive-through for the restaurant.
Stein has retained noted Cobb zoning attorney Garvis Sams, who handled the self-storage request last year. He’s also representing S & B Investments which is proposing a two-story Starbucks at Paper Mill Village.
That request will get its first hearing next Tuesday before the planning commission.
