Alex Brock presents plan for Dutch Brothers drive‑through at 8483 Holcomb Bridge Road

Alex Brock, a land-use attorney with Smith Gambrell Russell representing Rivermont Station 2 LLC, told the Johns Creek meeting that the applicant seeks a site-plan amendment and a concurrent variance to add a 950-square-foot Dutch Brothers drive-through at 8483 Holcomb Bridge Road. "My name is Alex Brock with Smith Gambrell Russell. I'm the land use attorney for the applicant, Rivermont Station 2 LLC," he said during the presentation.

Brock said the parcel in question is a parking-lot outparcel adjacent to the entrance drive of the Rivermont Shopping Center, located between Nesbitt Ferry Road and Bridal Road, and that the overall property totals about 10.428 acres and retains C‑1 zoning. He described existing uses on the small parcel as an emissions testing facility and an ATM (which he indicated is believed to be inoperable). The proposal would not change the C‑1 district but would amend the 2008 site plan to show a 950‑square‑foot coffee building with a drive‑through, a sidewalk connection to Holcomb Bridge Road, a small outdoor patio and a walk‑up service window; some existing parking along the left side of the plan would remain.

Brock also said the application includes a concurrent variance to Johns Creek code section 4.13 to reduce the out‑parcel frontage to accommodate the proposed building and drive aisle. He displayed architectural elevations and noted the design reflects Johns Creek code requirements; he also said this would be Dutch Brothers' second site in the Atlanta area, referencing an existing location off Medlock Bridge. Brock closed by offering his contact information for follow-up questions. The Chair ended the live-stream portion of the meeting after the presentation; no formal motion or vote on the rezoning conditions or variance was recorded in the presented transcript.
