Each month there is a public meeting of the Midtown Development Review Committee – comprised of 10 individuals representing residents, property and business owners, institutions, neighborhood associations, and MARTA. The committee, appointed by the City of Atlanta, provides formal recommendations to the Office of Planning on all Special Administrative Permit (SAP) applications within the Midtown SPI-16 and SPI-17 zoning districts.
The Midtown residential community is represented by two members of the DRC. Midtown Neighbors’ Association, currently represented by Jenny Williams, and NPU-E, currently represented by Coleman Morris, advocate for the interests of the community in the review of both large scale major developments and smaller renovations within the Midtown Improvement District (a part of the Midtown Neighborhood.)
Midtown DRC meetings are managed by the Midtown Alliance and are scheduled on the second Tuesday of each month. The meetings are held in person on the 5th Floor of 999 Peachtree at 5:30 PM. Applicants must submit project information (project narrative, site plan, elevations, renderings) one week in advance in order to be placed on the agenda.

The City of Atlanta is divided into twenty-five (25) Neighborhood Planning Units (NPUs), which are citizen advisory councils that make recommendations to the Mayor and City Council on zoning, land use, and other planning-related matters. The NPU system was established in 1974 by the late Mayor Maynard Jackson to provide an opportunity for all citizens to actively participate in the Comprehensive Development Plan, which is the City’s vision for the next five, ten, and fifteen years. Since then the NPU system has evolved into what it is today – the official avenue for residents to receive updates concerning all functions of City government. Enabling residents to express concerns and provide input helps the City in developing plans that best meet the needs of each neighborhood.
​Midtown resides in NPU-E which meets on the first Tuesday of every month.
You can find the current agenda and link to join the virtual meeting on the City of Atlanta NPU directory one week before the meeting.
Midtown is represented on the NPU-E Board by Midtown Neighbors’ Association. The Board of Directors appoints a representative from MNA to serve on the NPU- E Board.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR!
Calling all Midtown residents! Property owners and renters alike. Students, retirees, families, professionals. Each of us has an interest in zoning. You may not realize this but zoning is the greatest shaper of our neighborhood landscape. Density, scale, watershed management, architectural fabric, type variety. These elements drive affordability, transit access, street level vibrancy. Whether at a small and specific level or a big and comprehensive level – we want you to engage and provide feedback on the aspects of Midtown’s future zoning that matter to you.
You can attend in person or on zoom. See the flyer below for all the details.
