Summary
Metro Christian Academy was granted a special exception to operate a private school at a leased site, 7735 Atlanta Highway (B‑2 district). The representative said the fire marshal signed off on daycare areas and classes are expected to start in March pending final inspections and licensing.
The Montgomery City Board of Justice approved a special exception for Metro Christian Academy to operate a private school at 7735 Atlanta Highway in a B‑2 zoning district.
Latoya Pierce, representing Metro Christian Academy, told the board the organization is leasing the building and expects to begin classes in March while transitioning from its current Monticello Drive location. Pierce said the fire marshal had signed off on the daycare portion of the site but not specifically on the education special exception, and the academy acknowledged it will need required inspections and licensing before operations begin. “We expect classes to start in March,” Pierce said.
Board members asked whether the building is leased or being purchased and discussed licensing and fire-marshal inspections; staff confirmed inspections and licensing procedures are required before final operation. A motion to approve the special exception as presented was made and seconded; the board approved the request by voice.
No additional limits or conditions were recorded in the transcript beyond the standard inspection and licensing requirements referenced on the record.
