DRC meetings are open to the public and take place on the first Wednesday of each month via Zoom. The SPI-9 DRC meeting begins at 1:00pm.
About SPI-9:
Buckhead Community Improvement District partnered with the City of Atlanta, sister organization BATMA (organization preceding Livable Buckhead), and local resident neighbors through Neighborhood Planning Unit B to develop a new zoning ordinance that covers a significant part of the Buckhead commercial area.
The zoning, adopted by Atlanta City Council on October 4, 2010, sets the stage for a more walkable, urban community enriched with public art and parks, wide sidewalks, greenspace, transportation options, and outdoor dining, all designed to have international appeal.

In 2011, the Buckhead Community Improvement District and sister organization, BATMA (organization preceding Livable Buckhead), began updating this district to incorporate public art, transportation options, connectivity and greenspace among other changes, with all changes having been completed in Summer of 2012.
