Dunwoody Planning Commission meeting for Sept. 8, 2026

The Dunwoody Planning Commission held a meeting on September 8, 2026, primarily to discuss the zoning request RZ 2604 related to the High Street development project, specifically phase two's block six. The discussion focused on proposed changes to the building layout, parking configurations, pedestrian connectivity, and trail construction conditions. Key procurement-related topics included conditions for constructing a multi-use trail, design guidelines for the development, and easement agreements. The applicant expressed concerns about the floating easement condition and feasibility of trail construction due to environmental and jurisdictional challenges. Commissioners debated parking design, urban design elements, and loading area placements, ultimately agreeing on staff conditions with amendments to clarify language around loading areas and easement negotiations. The commission voted unanimously to approve the zoning request with these conditions and directed the applicant to continue working with city staff on finalizing trail easement language and pedestrian safety improvements.
