A Burger King on Ga. Highway 74 at the Wilshire Pavilion? Not so fast, said the Peachtree City Planning Commission on Aug. 8. The request was continued to give the applicant time to meet with neighbors.
The request by Premier Kings, Inc. seeks to construct a Burger King restaurant along Hwy. 74 South on a 1.6-acre lot adjacent to the Zaxby’s restaurant. The sticking point was that the ordinance for the Wilshire Village retail area specifies that only one freestanding restaurant with a drive-thru be permitted in that area.
Project representatives said they had not met with Wilshire Estates neighbors about their plans. A representative from the homeowners’ association present at the meeting confirmed that. Planning commissioners voted to continue the item until Sept. 12 to provide time for the meeting between the two groups to be held.
