Sandy Springs has extended the comment period for its Crossroads Small Area Urban Design Draft Plan through Sunday, Sept. 24.
The city presented its latest proposals for the plan during a public open house on Aug. 30. Planning and design principles to guide development included protecting and rehabilitating workforce housing; showing feasible redevelopment options for opportunities sites, including the Prado; establishing a connected grid of streets as a framework for new development; creating compatible transitions between existing and new development; and transforming the Long Island grid floodway into linear parkland.
The Urban Design Concept presentation can be viewed online. Comments also can be made online in English or in Spanish.
