Summary

The council approved an appeal of an ARB approval for a project at 50 Barton Street, attaching conditions including adherence to ARB design guidelines and stormwater/impervious-surface requirements; the motion to approve carried after council moved to question and voted in favor.

At its meeting the Norcross City Council voted to approve an appeal of an Architectural Review Board (ARB) decision concerning a project at 50 Barton Street, subject to the conditions the council had previously set.

Appellants and their representative told the council the project meets the ARB standards for design, color and spot, and that they had shown color renderings at a prior policy session. The appellants also acknowledged conditions the council mentioned, including a 35% impervious-surface limit and compliance with stormwater guidelines. The appellants asked that the certificate of appropriateness be granted based on the UDO/design code, while stormwater engineering would be handled through land-disturbance permitting.

A motion to approve the appeal with the stated conditions was made and seconded, the council moved to question, and the motion passed by voice vote. The record does not specify individual member votes or a roll-call tally in the transcript.

Next steps: staff and the applicant indicated they will continue engineering review during permitting; if any conditions require further documentation, staff will track those during plan review.
