Local brief
Two market-rate houses proposed on North Evelyn Place
The 0.456-acre request would create room for two single-family homes. Atlanta’s Zoning Review Board lists the case for Dec. 3.
A rezoning request listed at 785 North Evelyn Place NW would allow two market-rate single-family houses on a 0.456-acre property, according to documents before Atlanta’s zoning officials.[1]
Filed Oct. 2 as Z-26-58, the proposal would change the base zoning from R-4 to R-4A while retaining the Northwest Atlanta Affordable Workforce Housing Overlay designation. The attached legal description lays out two tracts of 0.228 acres each.[1]
The city’s housing impact statement describes both houses as market-rate and projects no added homes affordable to households at or below 80% of area median income. A completion date remains undetermined. The statement cautions that its analysis relies on applicant information and that proposed prices and unit counts can change before and during construction.[1]
The Zoning Review Board agenda lists the case for Dec. 3 at 6 p.m. in City Council Chambers on the second floor. This is a proposal, not an approval: the ordinance’s legislative workflow lists the request as pending.[1][2]
One address discrepancy remains unresolved. The ordinance caption and housing statement identify 785 North Evelyn Place NW, but the ordinance’s operative Section 1 says 784. The documents reviewed do not resolve that difference.[1]
