Group raises concerns that owner of the Midtown convenience store "has consistently failed to produce a comprehensive set of plans, been unable to provide adequate answers to concerns raised and more recently been unwilling to meet with the community."
The Midtown Neighbors' Association (MNA) has voted to oppose a Special Administrative Permit (SAP) for the “Uptown Station,” located at the edge of the Ansley Park neighborhood at 1521 Peachtree Street, on the grounds that the applicant has consistently failed to present a set of comprehensive plans to the community.
