    New developer proposal for 79 townhomes (tentatively 22 masters on main/57 with elevators) over 8+ acres.
    Project will require zoning variance for less than 20ft. driveways accessed via back alleys. DHA objected to potential use of Hardy Plank with Stone in favor of brick. Developer also proposing 24 guest parking spots, double required by code. DHA suggested adhering to code and adding more green space.
  5. Review of Hines restaurant development proposal at the corner of Ashford-Dunwoody Road and Ravinia Parkway – Vickie Chung, Smith, Gambrell & Russell
