Johnson Ferry Road rezoning seeks smaller residential lots; Oct. 5 meeting listed

A Johnson Ferry Road rezoning request would change the minimum residential lot size from two acres to 18,000 square feet. Sandy Springs’ case register lists RZ-26-1 as under staff review and schedules a second community meeting for Oct. 5, 2026, at 6 p.m. at City Hall, 1 Galambos Way.

The request seeks a change from Residential Estate RE-2 to Residential Detached RD-18 zoning. The register lists Planning Commission consideration for Nov. 18 and City Council consideration for Dec. 15, both at 6 p.m. These are scheduled checkpoints for the requested zoning change, not an approval.
