Dar Thompson’s residential and retail proposal at Lexington Circle will finally be heard Aug. 18 by the Peachtree City Council.
The City Council will hold a public hearing on a rezoning request for the Lexington Circle Lofts and Retail development proposed by fitness business owner Dar Thompson. He also developed the Sprouts Farmers Market project in the same area.
The proposal to construct a four-story retail and residential building with approximately 75 condo units received an unfavorable response by the Peachtree City Planning Commission in June.
Thompson is proposing 72-78 residential units ranging from 1,200-1,800 sq. ft. All units will be for sale, he said, adding that the average price of a fee simple condo in the $22-24 million project would be $379,000 and would include on-site concierge services.
The council on Aug. 18 will also consider an amendment to the ethics ordinance. If adopted, the amendment would carry the potential for a person filing a complaint subsequently judged to be frivolous to reimburse the city for the expenses incurred.
The amendment would not mandate reimbursement but would provide the council with the ability to impose such a requirement.
The council earlier this month approved and accepted the findings of the hearing officer who ruled that an ethics complaint by John Dufresne against City Councilman Mike King was unjustified, frivolous and patently unfounded.
