Brookhaven Calling Special Meeting For Moratorium on Rezonings

BROOKHAVEN, GA — The Brookhaven City Council has called a special meeting for Friday, August 19, at 3:30 to consider a 180-day moratorium on development rezoning requests.

The meeting announcement was posted on the city's website.

The proposal will not impact any requests that are under consideration, including a proposed Brookhaven MARTA station redevelopment.

Several high-profile projects proposed along Dresden Drive and in other areas of the city have been strongly opposed by residents, including the controversial Dresden Village, as reported by the Brookhaven Post. The project, which would be located on a site now housing the DeKalb Tax Commissioner's office, will come before a full vote before the city council on August 23.
