Peachtree Park Neighborhood Plan

Update #5 - April 20th, 2026

What is a Neighborhood Plan and why Peachtree Park?

The purpose of a neighborhood plan is to provide a guide for land use in the neighborhood, including greenspace, and provide overall recommendations for future improvements, including infrastructure needs, such as sidewalks and safer streets. When completed, the plan will be adopted by the Atlanta City Council and incorporated in the City’s Comprehensive Development Plan.

Peachtree Park goals are guided by the following principles for the plan:

  • Guiding Principle #1: Preservation of Peachtree Park as a single-family neighborhood

  • Guiding Principle #2: Encourage neighborhood-friendly businesses on Peachtree and Piedmont Roads – in both existing and future buildings

  • Guiding Principle #3: Provide safe conditions for pedestrians/cyclists in neighborhood 

  • Guiding Principle #4: Enhance greenspaces within the neighborhood

  • Guiding Principle #5: Encourage efficient and safe intersections along Piedmont Road 

Thanks for your input!

The planning process began in August 2025 and has included two Community Forums in September and November 2025 as well as posting presentations and surveys on the Peachtree Park Website. The draft plan reflects input from these sessions as well as from a steering committee composed of Peachtree Park residents and local area business representatives. The PPCA board approved the attached plan at their April 15, 2026 meeting with the following edits:

1. Page 13- Greenspace, paragraph 3, last sentence- "an" greenspace should be "a" greenspace

2. Page 28- the PPCA board approval date should be April 15, 2026 rather than March 18, 2026

3. Page 41- UD7 recommendation should read "What We Want" rather than "What We Don't Want"

4. Page 54- sentence 3- delete "Steering" in the committee name

5. Page 58- CC9- "No Parking Intersections" should be in blue font to be consistent with the rest of the headings
