No Summary & Background (First sentence includes Agency recommendation. Provide an executive summary of the action that gives an overview of the relevant details for the item.) Fulton County received a notice of annexation letter dated April 8, 2015 from the City of Atlanta requesting to annex approximately 271 acres of property in unincorporated South Fulton County and referred to as the Loch Lomond community. The approximately 271 acres area proposed for annexation is zoned R-3 (Residential) and is designated on the 2030 Fulton County Comprehensive Plan Map as Suburban Neighborhood. O.C.G.A. § 36-36-113 provides that Fulton County may by majority vote object to an annexation within 30 days of receipt of the notice of proposed annexation. O.C.G.A. § 36-36-113 further establishes the grounds upon which Fulton County may object to a proposed annexation. Fulton County may object to an annexation because of a material increase in burden upon the County directly related to any one or more of the following: (1) (2) (3) The proposed change in zoning or land use; Proposed increase in density; and Infrastructure demands related to the proposed change in zoning or land use. The City of Atlanta proposed zoning of R-3 (single family residential) and land use designation of single family are consistent with the current Fulton County zoning and the County’s land use designation, therefore based on the criteria set forth in 36-36-113, staff has found no basis upon which to file a valid objection and seeks the Board’s approval to notify the City of Atlanta accordingly.
