Planning Commission approves storage lot and limited truck parking at Road Atlanta Technology Park with buffers and fencing
Summary
Top‑End Motor Storage asked to amend I‑2 conditions to allow outdoor storage and tractor‑trailer parking on 17.08± acres; the Commission approved the request 3‑1 with conditions including a 50‑foot undisturbed buffer, an 8‑foot opaque fence, and a limit of nine tractor‑trailer parking spaces.
Top‑End Motor Storage, LLC requested amendments to the Heavy Industrial (I‑2) zoning conditions for two parcels (5481 & 5489 Technology Parkway) inside Road Atlanta Technology Park to allow outdoor storage of equipment and tractor‑trailer parking. The applicant described plans to improve aesthetics and use the site for equipment and supply storage and occasional tractor‑trailer parking.
One neighbor spoke in favor of the applicant’s operation; another neighbor raised environmental, noise, and safety concerns and asked whether the approval would cover both lots. Commissioners required an 8‑foot solid opaque fence around the outdoor storage area, a 50‑foot undisturbed buffer along residentially‑zoned property lines, a maximum of nine tractor‑trailer parking spaces, and denied further subdivision. The motion to approve passed 3‑1 (Davidson opposed).
