Decatur Residents
RE: South Decatur Village located at 814 South Columbia Drive
The City of Decatur would like residents to be aware of development activity at the intersection S. Columbia and Katie Kerr. South Decatur Village has received approval to build a mixture of townhomes and single family homes (50+ total).
After plan approval by the City Commission, plans were submitted for a land disturbance permit through the City’s Design, Environment & Construction Division. Staff has determined that the land disturbance plan meets all City requirements.
At this time, residents should expect to see a lot of activity at the building site starting with tree removal and site grading work.
While a number of trees will be removed from the site, 18 trees will be preserved on the site and 86 trees will be required to be planted at the site after construction. Total tree canopy at the site upon completion will be 78,604 square feet. Final approval of the development will depend in part on staff confirmation of all required tree replacement.
Residents can expect land clearing work to begin as soon as January 25th.
If you have any questions, please contact Design, Environment & Construction Division Director John Maximuk at John.Maximuk@decaturga.com or 678.553.6570.
