Summary

Council unanimously approved a series of variance requests with conditions (including items at Sexton Woods, 3645 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, 1974/1985th Street, and 4847 Peachtree Road), authorized a $39,283.10 crosswalk contract and a Jacobs call-center amendment for $15,946.16, and deferred a separate Peachtree Road item to January 2026.

Council handled a block of planning and contract items in rapid succession. Motions approved unanimously included a contract authorization for Gracie Gray contractors to install the Sexton Woods crosswalk at a cost not to exceed $39,283.10 and a Jacobs call center agreement amendment not to exceed $15,946.16.

Several variance motions were approved with conditions: a variance for 3641 (conditions around site plan conformity and dumpster access); approval of the 3645 Chamblee Dunwoody Road variance (including masonry/dumpster surface requirements); approvals and denials of multiple variances and waivers for projects at 3525 Broad Street (covered in a separate article); rooftop sign variance approval at 4847 Peachtree Road; and a package of approvals/conditions for 1974/1985th Street that included pedestrian walkways and a minimum 5-foot crosswalk within a proposed drive aisle. The council also deferred the 4900 Peachtree Road item to the January 2026 meeting cycle to allow time to review late-submitted drawings.

Each motion was moved and seconded and recorded as unanimous in the public meeting transcript; the council read conditions for many variances into the public record and empowered planning staff to ensure compliance before issuance of final approvals.
