A message from Caleb Racicot, chair of our Planning Zoning
and Land Use Committee.
Feb. 13, 2003
Dear Neighbors,
As you may know, the Downtown Neighborhood Association recently
established committees to address various concerns in our
neighborhood. One such committee is the Planning, Zoning,
and Land Use Committee, for which I am the Chair.
There are several core roles for this committee. These include:
- Ensuring that the ADNA is represented on Neighborhood
Planning Unit M;
- Monitoring liquor license applications and activities;
- Working with the City
and Central Atlanta
Progress to provide input on potential development activities;
- Working with the City
and Central Atlanta
Progress to provide input on streetscape and other public
infrastructure initiatives;
- Assessing the need for locally designated historic buildings
and districts and working with the Atlanta
Urban Design Commission to protect our neighborhood's
architectural treasures, as deemed appropriate; and
- Keeping the ADNA informed on all of the above activities
and soliciting support on an as-needed basis.
Meeting times or frequencies have not been established, but
will probably be once a month.
If you are interested in joining this committee please let
me know as soon as possible by sending e-mail to cracicot@biltmorecomm.com.
With several major upcoming initiatives and projects in our
neighborhood, including the Georgia Aquarium, The World of
Coca-Cola move, the Downtown
Livability Code, and continued residential and commercial
development, our input and proactive relationship with the
City, the State, Central Atlanta Progress and private developers
will be key to ensuring that Downtown's needs as an urban
neighborhood are balanced with its larger role as heart of
the greater Atlanta region.
Regards,
Caleb Racicot
