Alternatives: None PH2019-003 CITY OF PEACHTREE CORNERS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT APPLICATION FOR METROPOLITAN RIVER PROTECTION ACT CERTIFICATE CASE NUMBER: PH2019-003 LOCATION: E. Jones Bridge Road PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT: 115-acre new retirement home community CONTACT: Warren Jolly PHONE: 770-218-1725 OWNER: Ty White 2494 Jett Ferry Road Suite 202 Dunwoody, GA 30338 REQUEST SUMMARY: The proposed development in question is 115 acres, composed of 6 different parcels, 5 of which are in the River Corridor. The property has a stream and floodplain located on its property. The applicant received approval for a special use permit to allow for development of a retirement community in a combination of new and existing buildings at this property which was formerly home to FiServ offices. The development was approved for a maximum of 916 residential units of varying types through reuse of some existing buildings and new construction of others. The primary one-way entrance and exit roadways were conditioned to be maintained in their current configuration and some new, internal roadways were proposed to be added. The owner wishes to demo 2 out the 4 existing buildings and build a new retirement home community. This property is within 2,000 feet of the Chattahoochee River and therefore, requires a MRPA certification by the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC). Clearing and impervious area restrictions were recently conducted by AEC, Inc. The applicant requests certification of this property in accordance with the Metropolitan River Corridor Protection Act (MRPA). HISTORY: In 1973, in response to growing concerns about the Chattahoochee River, the Georgia General Assembly enacted the Metropolitan River Protection Act (Georgia Code 12-5-440 et seq.). It established a 2000-foot corridor along both banks of the Chattahoochee and its impoundments for the 48 miles between Buford Dam and Peachtree Creek. The act requires the ARC to protect the Chattahoochee River Corridor and to review new development proposals. The act requires local governments along the corridor to implement the ARC plan by issuing permits based on ARC findings, monitoring land- disturbing activity in the corridor and enforcing the act and the plan. Permit submittals for new homes and additions within the Chattahoochee River Corridor must show legal compliance with the plan. 1 A portion of the land being submitted for the proposed retirement community off East Jones Bridge was included in a 1991 Metro River review after it had been reviewed as part of SSI- Simmons (FISERV) review in 1987 (RC-87-03GC). The land in question is the area between Farrell Creek and East Jones Bridge. The subdivision review included a 500-foot setback along a small stretch of riverfront to allow for upgrading. The extended buffer is on the land between East Jones Bridge and Farrell Creek. This parcel was the site of the proposed office park (outside the buffer), which was never developed. The owner wishes to combine the parcels, demo 2 out of the 4 existing buildings, and build a new retirement home community using the proposed ARC clearing and impervious area development restrictions AEC determined in their analysis of the property. The proposed development would disturb 63.43 acres, requiring the EPD’s approval. The MRPA Application and Construction documents for the proposed E. Jones Bridge Road Development were submitted to the ARC to conduct an ARC Regional Review Finding on April 12, 2019 and then a revised package was re-submitted on June 24, 2019 following a meeting with the City, ARC, and project developers on May 31, 2019. The ARC has not completed their regional review and the plans are still pending their approval. 2 METROPOLITAN RIVER PROTECTION ACT CERTIFICATE E. Jones Bridge Road Parcel Pins: R6331 001, R6349 001, R348 093, R6331 006, R6349 003 The applicant is requesting formal City approval prior to obtaining ARC approval. If approved by the Mayor & City Council, staff recommends that the Metropolitan River Protection Act Certificate for the E. Jones Bridge Development stipulate the following conditions: 1. Mayor & Council reserve the right to approve a site plan that is altered significantly from the site plan which was approved as part of the City’s May 2018 Special Use Permit for this property. 2. The final iteration of the MRPA site plans must be found in compliance by City staff. 3. The ARC must find the plans in compliance with MRPA and issue them a MRPA certificate. 4. The Applicant shall apply for a Land Disturbance Permit and any development must meet all ordinance and engineering requirements determined by City Staff. 5. Applicant shall provide as-built surveys prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy.
