Tucker Northlake SLUPs
Tucker Northlake SLUPs
The site is currently developed as a vacant office building and parking deck. The office building is a
315,800 sq.ft., 9-story office building that was constructed in 2001 by AT&T. The property is fully
developed and is accessed via two full-access drive aisles on the adjacent property at 2245 Northlake
Parkway. The subject property is bounded to the north by the Habersham at Northlake Office Park. The
single-family detached subdivision, Winding Woods, is adjacent north and east. Located east and south
of the subject property is the Tucker Meridian Shopping Center. To the west is another vacant office
building, also previously occupied by AT&T, that has been rezoned to allow for an 80-unit for rent
townhome development, owned by the same entity as the subject property.
An adaptive reuse project is planned for the existing nine story (approximately 137’ tall) office building.
The request is to retrofit the building for a total of 216 multi-family residential units. The applicant is not
proposing to modify the exterior or add height to the existing office building, other than freshening up
the façade. It is possible that balconies will be added (recessed) to the front elevation but that has not
been decided at this point.
In discussions with the applicant, the unit breakdown of the 216 units will include approximately 151
one-bedroom units (approximately 765 sq.ft.) and approximately 65 two-bedroom apartments
(approximately 1,450 sq.ft.). The applicant is not proposing any three-bedroom units. Indoor amenities
(approximately 8,000 square feet) include a clubroom lounge, co-working style lounge (shared
conference and phone rooms), fitness center, and dog spa. A proposed outdoor amenity area, including
a pool and terrace (6,040 square feet), is shown near the southern property line, adjacent to the
southern side of the proposed residential building. All amenity areas would serve the proposed
apartment development and adjacent and entitled townhome development.
The submitted site plan shows approximately 3.77 acres of open space (59% of the site). While it should
be noted that the open space provided would be undisturbed, it is not a requirement that it be usable
open space, however usable open space would provide additional amenities to the proposed
development.
The applicant is proposing to use the existing seven level parking deck on the property, which contains
approximately 1,200 covered parking spaces, for the proposed multi-family development. From the
submitted site plan, a new raised path connecting the parking deck to the residential building would be
provided. It should be noted that the applicant is requesting a separate application, for the adjacent
properties to the west, to amend approved conditions of zoning (RZ-22-0002) to allow for a minimum of
23 guest parking spaces for the townhome development to be relocated from the southern portion of
the property to the parking deck.

SLUP-22-0002
Access would be provided to the multi-family building via two entrances along Northlake Parkway,
through the adjacent 80-unit for rent townhome development. The property owner has stated that while
the townhomes and office conversion would be done by different firms, all 296 units would be managed
by the same property management group. The southern entrance includes a tree-lined boulevard with
a pocket park. The northern entrance provides a direct connection to the existing 7-level parking deck
(1200 spaces).
Development strategies include encouraging a relatively high-density mix of retail, office, services, and
employment to serve a regional market area and developing a diverse mix of higher-density housing
types including multi-family. Because Northlake is readily accessible from the highway and is already
more developed, redeveloping and retrofitting the area to include more residential uses in this portion
of the city is considered both desirable and appropriate.
This community meeting was held in conjunction with the community meeting for the adjacent parcel,
2245 & 2247 Northlake Parkway (RZ-22-0002). Questions included rental price, location of the proposed
trail, parking, timeline for buildout, and number of bedrooms proposed.
It does not appear that any changes were made to the site plan as a result of the Public Participation
Meeting. However, only minor site changes are proposed to the existing site.

CRITERIA TO BE APPLIED – SPECIAL LAND USE PERMIT
Criteria (standards and factors) for special land use decisions are provided in Section 46-1594 of the City
of Tucker Zoning Ordinance. The applicant is required to address these criteria (see application); below
are staff’s findings which are independent of the applicant’s responses to these criteria.
1. Adequacy of the size of the site for the use contemplated and whether or not adequate land
area is available for the proposed use including provision of all required yards, open space, off-
street parking, and all other applicable requirements of the zoning district in which the use is
proposed to be located.
The subject property is approximately 6.44 acres and consists of an approximately 315,800-
square foot 9-story office building and 7-story parking deck. The site is adequate in terms of land
area and the applicant is proposing to retrofit the existing office building to allow for the
proposed 216 multi-family units.
No site work is proposed other than the alteration and expansion of the existing drive aisle, to
accommodate fire access requirements, and the addition of an elevated amenity area on the
southern side of the subject building.
The 1,200 space parking deck well exceeds the parking requirements for the development.
2. Compatibility of the proposed use with adjacent properties and land uses and with other
properties and land uses in the district.
From a land use standpoint, the proposed development is compatible with the land uses and
development of adjacent properties with the exception of the Winding Woods Subdivision.
However, only 2251 Northlake directly abuts Winding Woods and that parcel will remain
undeveloped if the SLUP is approved. The detention pond for the Meridian Development is
located in between the proposed multifamily conversion and the Winding Woods neighborhood.
3. Adequacy of public services, public facilities, and utilities to serve the proposed use.
Schools. When fully constructed, the proposed development would be expected to add 22
students to DeKalb Schools, which includes 9 at Midvale Elementary, 3 at Tucker Middle, 6 at
Tucker High, 4 at other DCSD schools, and 0 at private schools. The DeKalb County School District
stated that all three neighborhood schools have capacity for additional students.
Water and sewer. Water and sewer approval is required by the DeKalb County Department of
Watershed Management. Approval of the SLUP shall be conditional to Watershed approval.
4. Adequacy of the public street on which the use is proposed to be located and whether or not
there is sufficient traffic-carrying capacity for the use proposed so as not to unduly increase
traffic and create congestion in the area.
Page 139
Page 5of 316
SLUP-22-0002
The subject property has two existing full-access curb cuts along Northlake Parkway. The City
Engineer has reviewed the application and did not have any comments regarding inadequate
access to the site.
The applicant submitted a trip generation memo which analyzed the traffic generated by the
existing office building (if fully leased), the proposed development by itself, and proposed
development with the adjacent for-rent townhome development, to the west. In the memo, the
existing approximately 299,275-square foot office building, would generate a net of 3,078 total
daily trips, with 308 AM peak hour trips and 323 PM peak hour trips.
The expected trips generated by proposed development would generate approximately 1,088
total daily trips, with 68 AM peak hour trips and 86 PM peak hour trips. It should be noted that
the trip generation memo analyzed the impact of 200 multi-family units; however, 216 multi-
family units are proposed with this development.
The memo also included an analysis of the traffic generated by the townhomes and multifamily
units. The expected trips for both developments would result in approximately 1,652 total daily
trips, with 107 AM peak hour trips and 134 PM peak hour trips.
The traffic study that was submitted on May 13, 2022 states that “all study intersections currently
operate at acceptable LOS during both the AM and PM peak hours” and that under no build and
build conditions all “intersections are projected to continue to operate at acceptable LOS during
both the AM and PM peak hours.” Additionally, the study states that no off-site intersection or
site-access improvements are recommended.
5. Whether or not existing land uses located along access routes to the site will be adversely
affected by the character of the vehicles or the volume of traffic generated by the proposed
use.
It is not expected that Land Uses along Northlake Parkway would be adversely affected as the
proposed development has two access points, one of which is located at the intersection of
Northlake Parkway and Northlake Center Drive and contains a traffic signal. Additionally, the
proposed development is located approximately 400’ from the on-ramp to I-285 west. With the
proximity of the proposed development to the interstate, the proposed development should not
generate an exorbitant amount of traffic volume.
6. Adequacy of ingress and egress to the subject property and to all proposed buildings,
structures, and uses thereon, with particular reference to pedestrian and automotive safety
and convenience, traffic flow and control, and access in the event of fire or other emergency.
The proposed development meets this standard. The two development plans align and provide
sufficient pedestrian and automobile access throughout the site. Alterations have been proposed
to the ingress/egress for emergency vehicles to the south of the office building and amenity area.
The proposed expansion would provide sufficient access for emergency vehicles.

Page 6of 316
SLUP-22-0002
7. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of noise, smoke, odor, dust, or vibration generated by the proposed use.
The proposed development will not generate excessive noise, nor will it emit smoke, odor, dust
or vibration. Therefore, no adverse impacts on adjoining land uses are anticipated.
8. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of the hours of operation of the proposed use.
It is not expected that the proposed 216 multi-family units, if approved, would result in unusual
hours of activity.
9. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of the manner of operation of the proposed use.
Allowing a multi-family development at a density of 33.5 units per acre could affect the existing
use or usability of nearby properties. Ideally, you transition zoning and development from low
density single-family detached to a medium density residential (such as townhomes), to
commercial/office/high density residential (such as apartments). Providing a transition from
more intense development to less intense development is typical of traditional zoning as it
provides a step-down in intensity as you move away from the urban core of a city.
If this application is approved, that transition would not be provided as townhomes would be
located adjacent to Northlake Parkway and apartments would be adjacent to Winding Woods
subdivision. However, staff will note that only the undisturbed green space at the northeast side
of the property is immediately adjacent to Winding Woods. The detention pond for Meridian
separates the proposed multifamily building from Winding Woods.
The only patios that could be included on the building face away from Winding Woods.
10. Whether or not the proposed use is otherwise consistent with the requirements of the zoning
district classification in which the use is proposed to be located.
While the proposal for 216 multifamily units on 6.44 acres yields a density of 33.5 units per acre,
the density would be less if calculated using all four parcels that are owned by SDM Northlake.
Combined, there could be a total of 296 units (townhomes and multi-family rentals) on 13.73
acres. This yields a density of 21.56 units per acre which complies with the NL-2 zoning district.
The submitted site shows approximately 3.7 acres of undisturbed open space (exceeding the 20%
requirement), however; the only dedicated open space that is being proposed is the pool area,
located at the southern portion of the property. While providing more usable open space is not
a requirement of the zoning district it would offer an additional amenity for the proposed multi-
family development.
It should be noted that the development will require further review regarding landscaping,
proposed retaining walls, crosswalks, etc., at the time of Site & Land Development Review, if
approved.
Page 141
Page 7of 316
SLUP-22-0002
11. Whether or not the proposed use is consistent with the policies of the comprehensive plan.
The subject properties are located in the Regional Activity Center on the Future Land Use Map.
Primary land uses include townhomes, higher density multi-family, including apartments and
condominiums, retail and service commercial, office, entertainment and cultural facilities, and
public and private recreational uses.
While higher density developments are considered appropriate within the Regional Activity
Center Character Area, the transition of uses is not what is typically desired. Approving the SLUP
request would allow for a pocket of high density between the townhomes and the Winding
Woods neighborhood, but it would create a unique housing option that is not currently available
in the city.
The removal of all of the office space could have a negative impact on the regional market area.
12. Whether or not the proposed use provides for all required buffer zones and transitional buffer
zones where required by the regulations of the zoning district in which the use is proposed to
be located.
13. Whether or not there is adequate provision of refuse and service areas.
The submitted site plan does not specifically call out the proposed dumpster locations, however
the applicant’s letter of intent states adequate refuse and services areas are provided.
14. Whether the length of time for which the special land use permit is granted should be limited
in duration.
No limits on the length of time on the special land use permit are recommended, if granted.
15. Whether or not the size, scale and massing of proposed buildings are appropriate in relation to
the size of the subject property and in relation to the size, scale and massing of adjacent and
nearby lots and buildings.
The proposed development would not result in any new buildings. While the existing 137’ tall
office building may not be appropriate next to single-family detached residences, the applicant
is not proposing at add any additional height to the structure, should this application be
approved.
Page 142
Page 8of 316
SLUP-22-0002
16. Whether the proposed use will adversely affect historic buildings, sites, districts, or
archaeological resources.
There are no known historic buildings, sites, districts or archaeological resources on the subject
properties. Therefore, no adverse effects are anticipated (meets standard).
17. Whether the proposed use satisfies the requirements contained within the supplemental
regulations for such special land use permit.
Not applicable.
18. Whether or not the proposed use will create a negative shadow impact on any adjoining lot or
building as a result of the proposed building height.
A negative shadow would not be created as the office building that is proposed to be converted
into multi-family units is existing. It should also be noted that while the office building is nine
stories tall, the building is located more than 400’ from the nearest single-family home within the
Winding Woods subdivision. Although this would be a change in use, there is no proposed
development for the project that would create a negative shadow impact on the surrounding
properties.
19. Whether the proposed use would result in a disproportionate proliferation of that or similar
uses in the subject character area.
The proposed development could be considered a proliferation of this use in the area, as several
multifamily developments exist/are entitled in this quadrant of Northlake. However, this would
be the only adaptive reuse of an office building in this quadrant. The height, facades, and large
windows create more of an urban high rise feel than that of traditional multifamily buildings.
While rental townhomes were recently approved on the adjoining properties, this proposal may
appeal to a different type of resident as the proposed apartments would be limited to one and
two-bedroom units and the townhomes next door are three-bedrooms.
To the southwest of the subject property is The Reid, a multi-family development that consists
of 245 units on 8.65 acres (28.32 units per acre). Further south is Northlake Senior, which contains
90 units on 1.67 acres (53.89 units per acre).
20. Whether the proposed use would be consistent with the needs of the neighborhood or the
community as a whole, be compatible with the neighborhood, and would not be in conflict
with the overall objective of the comprehensive plan.
The proposed multi-family development provides a unique housing type and the adaptive reuse
of a vacant office building. However, the removal of all of the office space on these properties
could have a negative impact on the community as a whole. Preserving more office space would
allow for a reduced density more in keeping with the area and serve the regional market area as
a whole.
Page 143
Page 9of 316
SLUP-22-0002
CONCLUSION
The request meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan in terms of primary land use (multi-family), a
unique housing type, and the retrofit of vacant office. However, the incorporation of some office space
and more usable open space would make the proposal more desirable to future residents and the
regional activity center.

RE: Letter of intent for Special Land Use Permit (SLUP) at 2247 & 2251 Northlake
Parkway, Tucker Georgia (the “Property”).
To Whom it May Concern:
This application seeks approval of a SLUP request to accommodate the adaptive reuse of
the existing office building located on the Property. Per the pre-application meeting held on March
2, 2022, this request is being made to allow the site to be developed with a density that is greater
than 24 dwelling units per acre. Under the existing zoning, the property could contain a total of
148 multifamily units as a matter of right and this request proposes a total of 216 units. By granting
the request herein, the existing office building will be repurposed for the multifamily use with
parking accommodated in an existing parking structure on site.

1. Adequacy of the size of the site for the use contemplated and whether or not adequate land area
is available for the proposed use including provision of all required yards, open space, off-street
parking, and all other applicable requirements of the zoning district in which the use is proposed
to be located.
The site is adequately sized to accommodate the use contemplated. The subject property is
approximately 6.25 acres that is already improved with an existing office building and accessory
parking structure with no additional development proposed. Both the office building and parking
structure will remain as a part of the proposed development with the office building being adaptively
reused and converted to multifamily. All other applicable zoning district requirements will be met by
the proposed project.
2. Compatibility of the proposed use with adjacent properties and land uses and with other
properties and land uses in the district.
The proposed use is compatible with the adjacent properties and land uses in the area. To the immediate
south is a large commercial strip center with a variety of retail uses. To the east is a single family
residential development. To the north are a cluster of various office uses. To the immediate west is a
property under common ownership with the applicant of the subject property that was recently granted
a rezoning in 2021 for the development of an 80 unit townhome community. The proposed multifamily
use in the existing office building is compatible with the surrounding uses.
3. Adequacy of public services, public facilities, and utilities to serve the proposed use.
The property is adequately served by public infrastructure and utilities as the property is already
improved and located in a developed area.
4. Adequacy of the public street on which the use is proposed to be located and whether or not there
is sufficient traffic-carrying capacity for the use proposed so as not to unduly increase traffic and
create congestion in the area.
Applicant is providing a traffic study as a part of this application that will address traffic and congestion
issues in the area. It is anticipated that the street system is adequate to handle the trips generated by the
proposed use even when combined with the trips generated from the townhome development.
Regardless, there will be much fewer occupants and thus trips as a result of the conversion to
multifamily from office.
5. Whether or not existing land uses located along access routes to the site will be adversely affected
by the character of the vehicles or the volume of traffic generated by the proposed use.
The traffic study will address traffic volume in detail but it is not anticipated that there will be any
adverse effects resulting from the traffic generated by the proposed use.
6. Adequacy of ingress and egress to the subject property and to all proposed buildings, structures,
and uses thereon, with particular reference to pedestrian and automotive safety and convenience,
traffic flow and control, and access in the event of fire or other emergency. RECEIVED
CITY OF TUCKER
04/19/2022
7. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of noise, smoke, odor, dust, or vibration generated by the proposed use.
The proposed redevelopment of the office building into a multifamily use will not create adverse
impacts upon any adjacent land uses by reason of noise, smoke or odor.
8. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of the hours of operation of the proposed use.
The proposed use will not create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by reason of the hours
of operation of the proposed use. The proposed use of the property is multifamily, which does not have
hours of operation in the traditional sense.
9. Whether or not the proposed use will create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by
reason of the manner of operation of the proposed use.
The proposed multifamily use will not create adverse impacts upon any adjoining land use by reason
of the manner of operation. The property currently contains a vacant office building. If the office
building was repopulated with new tenants, the use would be much more intense and impactful on the
adjacent uses than the proposed multifamily use.
10. Whether or not the proposed use is otherwise consistent with the requirements of the zoning
district classification in which the use is proposed to be located.
The proposed use is a permitted use in the zoning district. The only reason for the request proposed by
this application is the density. By right, the property is permitted 148 units and this request increases
that number to 216 units. Combining the 216 units with the 80 units from the immediately adjacent
parcel to the west creates a density for the overall development under common control that is
approximately 22 units per acre which would be less than the maximum 24 unit per acre requirement.
11. Whether or not the proposed use is consistent with the policies of the comprehensive plan.
The property is located in the Regional Activity Center character area. The stated goals of the Regional
Activity Center include developing a higher density mix of retail, office, housing and services. Further,
the character area includes a strategy to develop higher density housing types that specifically includes
multifamily townhomes and apartments. The development proposed by this application is directly
aligned with the policies of the comprehensive plan for the area.
12. Whether or not the proposed use provides for all required buffer zones and transitional buffer
zones where required by the regulations of the zoning district in which the use is proposed to be
located.
The property contains existing improvements that includes an office building and parking garage. No
redevelopment of the property will occur as a part of this special land use permit request. Nonetheless,
there is no encroachment or planned encroachment into the required 50 foot buffer zones and RECEIVED

DEPARTMENT
transitional buffer. There are no improvements planned between the existing improvements and
adjacent residential areas.
13. Whether or not there is adequate provision of refuse and service areas.
Refuse and service areas are adequately accommodated as shown on the site plan.
14. Whether the length of time for which the special land use permit is granted should be limited in
duration.
The special land use permit should be granted for an unlimited duration.
15. Whether or not the size, scale and massing of proposed buildings are appropriate in relation to
the size of the subject property and in relation to the size, scale and massing of adjacent and
nearby lots and buildings.
As stated previously, this application proposes the adaptive reuse of an existing office building and
parking structure. There will be no redevelopment of the existing improvements. Nonetheless,
considering the surrounding area and proximity to significant commercial centers, the size and scale of
the buildings are appropriate.
16. Whether the proposed use will adversely affect historic buildings, sites, districts, or
archaeological resources.
There are no historic buildings, sites, districts or archaeological resources that will be affected by the
proposed redevelopment of the property.
17. Whether the proposed use satisfies the requirements contained within the supplemental
regulations for such special land use permit.
18. Whether or not the proposed use will create a negative shadow impact on any adjoining lot or
building as a result of the proposed building height.
The buildings are existing and currently do not cast a negative shadow impact on adjoining lots.
19. Whether the proposed use would result in a disproportionate proliferation of that or similar uses
in the subject character area.
While there are other multifamily developments located within the character area, the proposed use will
not result in a disproportionate proliferation of such uses. Other multifamily projects located in the
immediate area are not within the city limits.
20. Whether the proposed use would be consistent with the needs of the neighborhood or the
community as a whole, be compatible with the neighborhood, and would not be in conflict with
the overall objective of the comprehensive plan.
As stated previously, the proposed project furthers the goal of the comprehensive plan by adding
RECEIVED
multifamily density. Additionally, considering the location of the property in an area that is highly
CITY OF TUCKER
developed with a variety of uses, the proposed use offers an opportunity to provide infill development

SLUP-22-0002 PLANNING & ZONING
DEPARTMENT
in area that would otherwise be used as office space. Demand in the office market is not sufficient
enough at this location to support repopulating the office with new tenants. The proposed use is
consistent with the needs of the neighborhood and community as a whole as underutilized property is
being reactivated with a needed new housing product. This use is compatible with the neighborhood
as it adds housing product type and contributes to the overall mix of uses in the area that creates a true
neighborhood. One of the overarching policies for the City of Tucker Comprehensive Plan is to
preserve and improve neighborhoods. The proposed adaptive re-use helps to preserve and improve on
this existing neighborhood by taking an existing underutilized property and reinvigorating it with a
fresh and new use in the community landscape. Further, the proposed use is consistent with the
conversion of underutilized office buildings into residential uses in the broader market. Removal of
this building from the area office market should have a beneficial effect on the market.

RE: SDM Northlake Multifamily – City of Tucker, Georgia – Trip Generation Comparison
Kimley-Horn is pleased to provide this memorandum regarding the project trip generation for the
proposed SDM Northlake Multifamily development in the City of Tucker, Georgia.
The SDM Northlake Multifamily development is a proposed conversion of an unoccupied 9-story office
building (299,775 SF) to a multifamily residential development located on 5.04 acres at 2247 Northlake
Parkway in the City of Tucker, Georgia. Please see Figure 1 for an aerial of the site. Adjacent to the
multifamily development, a separate 80-townhome development (new construction) is proposed.
TRIP GENERATIO N
Project traffic, for the purposes of this evaluation, is defined as the vehicle trips expected to be
generated by the proposed development. Anticipated trip generation for the Northlake Parkway
development was calculated using rates and equations contained in the Institute of Transportation
Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, 2017.
The density and the anticipated project trip generation are summarized in Table 1.

Based on Table 1, the proposed SDM Northlake Multifamily development is projected to generate
approximately 1,990 fewer total daily trips (995 in; 995 out), 240 fewer AM peak hour trips, and 237
fewer PM peak hour trips than the trip generation potential of the existing 9-story office building. The
proposed SDM Northlake Multifamily and adjacent townhome development together are projected to
generate approximately 1,426 fewer total daily trips (713 in; 713 out), 201 fewer AM peak hour trips,
and 189 fewer PM peak hour trips than the trip generation potential of the existing 9-story office building.

SDM Northlake
City of Tucker, Georgia
April 2022
04/19/2022
SDM Northlake seeks to redevelop the existing Office property along of Northlake Parkway and Northlake Center Drive,
including two (2) office buildings and one (1) parking deck. The site is located adjacent to commercial and residential areas.
According to the site review, there are no FEMA floodplains, jurisdictional streams, wildlife habitat, or environmentally
sensitive areas located within the property boundary.
SDM Northlake is seeking to demolish one (1) existing office building and to re-develop the front portion of the property in
its location with approximately 80 Townhome Residential units. The second existing office building and parking deck are
proposed to remain and are proposed to be converted to 216 Multifamily Residential units. Please refer to the site plan
included for additional detail (Figure 5).
In accordance with the City of Tucker’s Comprehensive Plan approved on April 23, 2018, the future use of the SDM Northlake
property will maintain the City’s vision of “preserving and improving neighborhoods” as well as “bolstering [the City’s}
economic base.” The property seeks to repurpose an underutilized commercial development to further align with the City’s
vision.
The subject property totals approximately 14+/- acres and is located along of Northlake Parkway and Northlake Center Drive
within the City of Tucker in DeKalb County, Georgia (Figure 1). An existing site survey was completed by Moreland Altobelli
Associates, Inc. on August 24, 2017 (Figure 4).
A desktop analysis was performed using various online and GIS data sources to gain an understanding of the property’s
conditions and potential resources. These sources include wetlands, floodplains, streams/stream buffers, topography, slope,
vegetation, and documented protected species and cultural resources. A detailed site delineation of streams and wetlands
was not performed.
a. Wetlands
According to the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), there are no mapped wetlands located within or adjacent to the property
boundary. Known and potential aquatic resources are illustrated on Figure 2.
b. Floodplain
Areas classified as 100-year floodplains are subject to regulations that limit the extent to which development and fill activities
can occur. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)
Information, the subject property does not contain 100-year floodplains (Zone A) and is illustrated on Figure 2.
c. Streams/Stream Buffers
Possible streams were identified using vegetative signatures on aerial photographs, topographic maps, and National
Hydrography Datasets (NHD) (Figures 2 & 3). No jurisdictional streams or their respective stream buffers are located within
the project boundary. A detailed stream delineation and official jurisdictional determination was not performed.

Using the Stone Mountain, GA USGS 7.5-Minute quadrangle topographic maps, slopes and draws were identified within
the site boundaries (Figure 3). The land surface generally slopes from higher points in the southern portion of the property
towards the northern portion of the site.
e. Vegetation
The subject site is dominated by urban development with associated parking lots with surrounding mixed pine/hardwood
forests within the property boundary (Figure 2). The subject site is located within the Southern Outer Piedmont Ecoregion
(Level IV) of Georgia.
f. Wildlife
An online review of protected wildlife and plant species was performed to assess threatened or endangered State and
Federal species that have known occurrences on or near the site. The Federal list of species within the property boundary
in DeKalb County was generated through the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and
Consultation (IPaC) system query report and the State list was generated through the Georgia Department of Natural
Resources (GADNR) Natural Heritage Program (NHP) Species of Concern list. These reports are included in Attachment B.
The IPaC report documented one (1) plant on the federal list in DeKalb County.
The Stone Mountain, GA, NW Quarter Quad reports did not document any species with state protection. Based on the
desktop analysis of the subject project site, critical habitat for State and Federally protected species was not observed within
the property boundary.
At the present time, the State of Georgia does not have state regulations that require State protected species investigations
for privately funded projects. The list of State species both with and without protection are intended to provide the project
with a level of due diligence to satisfy decision making. Based on the information provided by USFWS and GADNR, no
suitable habitat for protected species is not located within the property boundary.
g. Archeological/Historical Sites
An online review of available resources was performed to assess known listed sites that may have cultural or historic
significance (Attachment C). The restricted public access database of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), did
not result in any historic sites within one (1) mile of the property. A review of the Georgia Natural, Archaeological, and Historic
Resources Geographic Information System (GNAHRGIS) database was performed and did not result in any designated or
listed cultural resource located within one (1) mile of the proposed project site. Based on the current land use plan, it is
reasonably probable that direct impacts to cultural resources and their viewsheds are not expected to occur.

The site does not contain any additional environmentally sensitive areas i.e. floodplains, slopes exceeding 25 percent, river
corridors, etc.
The site utilizes existing stormwater management and will continue to utilize onsite stormwater management.
The project proposes to demolish one (1) existing office building in order to re-develop to property and construct
townhomes. One (1) parking garage and one (1) existing office building will remain onsite and are proposed to be
converted to multifamily residential use.
There are no known archeological/historically significant areas within the property boundary.
Proposed improvements to the site will avoid environmental impacts. There are no indications that the site contains
environmentally stressed communities.
There is no net change in the allotment of green space and open space on the site.
The site is currently developed and proposes re-zoning/development. Impacts to noise or lighting impacts to citizens will be
minimized and avoided if possible.
The property is currently developed and proposes re-zoning/development. Existing parks and recreational green space
surrounding the site will not be impacted by the property.
The site is currently developed and proposes re-zoning/development. No suitable habitat of Federally or State Listed

Endangered species
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of
project level impacts.
The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species.
Additional areas of in uence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of
the species range if the species could be indirectly a ected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a
dam upstream of a sh population even if that sh does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly
impact the species by reducing or eliminating water ow downstream). Because species can move,
and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near
the project area. To fully determine any potential e ects to species, additional site-speci c and
project-speci c information is often required.
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary
information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area
of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any
Federal agency. A letter from the local o ce and a species list which ful lls this requirement can
only be obtained by requesting an o cial species list from either the Regulatory Review section in
IPaC (see directions below) or from the local eld o ce directly.
For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website
and request an o cial species list by doing the following:
Listed species1 and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the sheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA Fisheries2).
Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not shown on this
list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under their jurisdiction.
1. Species listed under the Endangered Species Act are threatened or endangered; IPaC also shows
species that are candidates, or proposed, for listing. See the listing status page for more
information. IPaC only shows species that are regulated by USFWS (see FAQ). RECEIVED
2. NOAA Fisheries, also known as the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), is an o ce of the
CITY OF TUCKER
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration within the Department of Commerce.
The following species are potentially a ected by activities in this location: 04/19/2022
Critical habitats
Potential e ects to critical habitat(s) in this location must be analyzed along with the endangered
species themselves.
Migratory birds
Certain birds are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act1 and the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act2.
Any person or organization who plans or conducts activities that may result in impacts to migratory
birds, eagles, and their habitats should follow appropriate regulations and consider implementing
appropriate conservation measures, as described below.
The birds listed below are birds of particular concern either because they occur on the USFWS Birds
of Conservation Concern (BCC) list or warrant special attention in your project location. To learn
more about the levels of concern for birds on your list and how this list is generated, see the FAQ
below. This is not a list of every bird you may nd in this location, nor a guarantee that every bird on
this list will be found in your project area. To see exact locations of where birders and the general
public have sighted birds in and around your project area, visit the E-bird data mapping tool RECEIVED
(Tip:
enter your location, desired date range and a species on your list). For projects that occurCITY

For guidance on when to schedule activities or implement avoidance and minimization measures to
reduce impacts to migratory birds on your list, click on the PROBABILITY OF PRESENCE SUMMARY at
the top of your list to see when these birds are most likely to be present and breeding in your
project area.
Probability of Presence ( )
Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your
project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4-week months.)
A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey e ort (see below) can be
used to establish a level of con dence in the presence score. One can have higher con dence in the
presence score if the corresponding survey e ort is also high.
How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:
1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the
week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that
week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was
found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25.
2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence
is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence
across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted
Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any
week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is
0.05/0.25 = 0.2.
3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical
conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of
presence score.
To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
Breeding Season ( )
RECEIVED
Yellow bars denote a very liberal estimate of the time-frame inside which the bird breeds across its
CITY OF TUCKER
entire range. If there are no yellow bars shown for a bird, it does not breed in your project area.
To see a bar's survey e ort range, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.
No Data ( )
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.
Survey Timeframe
Surveys from only the last 10 years are used in order to ensure delivery of currently relevant
information. The exception to this is areas o the Atlantic coast, where bird returns are based on all
years of available data, since data in these areas is currently much more sparse.
Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.
Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at
any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to
occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and
avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to
occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or
permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or
bird species present on your project site.
What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my speci ed location?
The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) and other species
that may warrant special attention in your project location.
The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network
(AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is
queried and ltered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project
intersects, and that have been identi ed as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that
area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to o shore
activities or development.
Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not
representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your
project area, please visit the AKN Phenology Tool.
What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially
occurring in my speci ed location?
The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the
Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen
science datasets .
Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To
learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the
Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.
How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area?
RECEIVED
To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating
CITY OF or TUCKER
year-round), you may refer to the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird Guide, or
(if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds
04/19/2022
guide. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that bird does occur
in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe speci ed. If "Breeds
PLANNING & ZONING
elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:
1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range
anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Paci c Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);
2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the

3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of
the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in o shore areas from
certain types of development or activities (e.g. o shore energy development or longline shing).
Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, e orts should be made, in particular, to
avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For
more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird
impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.
For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of
bird species within your project area o the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal
also o ers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review.
Alternately, you may download the bird model results les underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS
Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic
Outer Continental Shelf project webpage.
Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year,
including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on
marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam
Loring.
If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the
Eagle Act should such impacts occur.
The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority
concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be
in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring
in my speci ed location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10
km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look
carefully at the survey e ort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a
red horizontal bar). A high survey e ort is the key component. If the survey e ort is high, then the probability of
presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey e ort bar or no data bar means a lack
of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting
point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there,
and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to
con rm presence, and helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or
minimize potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be con rmed. To learn more about

Data limitations
The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level
information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high
altitude imagery. Wetlands are identi ed based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error
is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in
revision of the wetland boundaries or classi cation established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts,
the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth veri cation work conducted.
Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or eld work. There may be
occasional di erences in polygon boundaries or classi cations between the information depicted on the map and
the actual conditions on site. RECEIVED

Data exclusions
04/19/2022
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial
imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged

In January 2022, a Land Disturbance Permit (LDP) for the site was submitted to the City of Tucker. (PLD22-
0002). The LDP has not been issued yet.
In February 2022, the applicant discussed the potential of turning the existing office building on the
adjacent property into a multi-family development at a density of more than 24 units per acre, which
would require a Special Land Use Permit (SLUP). In April 2022, the applicant submitted a SLUP application
(SLUP-22-0002) to allow for the development of 216 multi-family apartment units within the existing 9-
story office building on the parcels to the east of the subject property.
All four parcels, 2245 and 2249 Northlake Property (RZ-22-0002) and 2247 and 2251 Northlake Parkway
(SLUP-22-0002) are currently owned by the same entity.
PROJECT DATA
The applicant is requesting a major modification to amend two conditions of zoning that currently exist
on the properties. The requested amendments specifically relate to relocating the 23 proposed guest
parking spaces for the townhome development from the southeastern corner of the subject property to
the existing parking deck.
The applicant is proposing to amend condition 2 to reflect the updated site plan and condition 8 to allow
visitor parking to be located within the adjacent, approximately 1,200 space parking deck as opposed to
the adjacent surface lot. The existing conditions state:
2. The property should be developed in general conformance with the site plan submitted on March
8, 2021 to the Planning and Zoning Department, with revisions to meet these conditions.
8. The 23 surface parking spaces at the southeast corner shall be reserved for guest parking for the
townhome development.
If approved, an access easement would be required to be recorded with DeKalb Superior Court in order
for guests of the townhome development to legally access the parking deck at 2247 Northlake. Staff has
included this as a condition.
Page 226
Page 2of 316
RZ-22-0002
Page 227
Page 3of 316
RZ-22-0002
including affordable and workforce housing; designing streetscapes to be pedestrian-oriented; and
making connections to nearby networks of greenspace or trails.
This community meeting was held in conjunction with the community meeting for the adjacent parcels,
2247 & 2251 Northlake Parkway (SLUP-22-0002). While the applicant spoke on the proposed
modification for the relocation of visitor parking, no community meeting attendees had
questions/comments/or concerns regarding this portion of the project.

1. Whether the zoning proposal is in conformity with the policy and intent of the comprehensive
plan.
The proposed development meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan in terms of promoting
adaptive reuse and infill development in the office park at Northlake, specifically by “expanding
services and conveniences for tenants within the Northlake Area.” By providing guest parking that
is covered and in closer proximity to the townhomes than in an uncovered parking area, the
applicant is able to create a safer and more pedestrian friendly environment for the townhome
development.
2. Whether the zoning proposal will permit a use that is suitable in view of the use and development
of adjacent and nearby property or properties.
Amending a condition of zoning to allow for the relocation of the required guest parking from a
surface lot to the adjacent parking deck is suitable in the view of the use and development of
adjacent and nearby properties at the present time. The surrounding properties include office and
retail uses as well as a multi-family development. The relocation of the proposed parking, so long
as an access easement is agreed upon and recorded by the property owners, would benefit the
townhome community as it would provide guest parking that is covered, as opposed to providing
surface parking, which would expose vehicles to the elements.
3. Whether the property to be affected by the zoning proposal has a reasonable economic use as
currently zoned.
The subject property does have a reasonable economic use as currently zoned. The proposed
modification, to relocate guest parking from the 23 uncovered spaces at the southeastern corner of
the parcel to the adjacent parking deck, is not expected to change the economic use of the property
but would provide an amenity for the townhome development not currently offered.
4. Whether the zoning proposal will adversely affect the existing use or usability of adjacent or
nearby property or properties.
The modification is not anticipated to adversely affect the existing use or usability of nearby
properties. The parking deck has approximately 1,219 parking spaces. Granting the townhome
development to use 23 of the 1,219 parking spaces would not significantly impact the existing office
Page 229
Page 5of 316
RZ-22-0002
building/proposed multi-family building but would provide an amenity and safer parking options for
the townhome guests.
5. Whether there are other existing or changing conditions affecting the use and development of the
property which give supporting grounds for either approval or disapproval of the zoning proposal.
There are no known existing or changing conditions that affect the use and development of the
parcels that are a part of this rezoning application. However, the intent when this rezoning first
went through the process was to leave the 9-story office building at the real as office use. This
modification is required due to site changes created by the proposed office conversion.
6. Whether the zoning proposal will adversely affect historic buildings, site, districts, or
archaeological resources.
There are no known historic buildings, sites, districts or archaeological resources on the subject
properties.
7. Whether the zoning proposal will result in a use which will or could cause an excessive or
burdensome use of existing streets, transportation facilities, utilities, or schools.
The requested zoning modification would not cause any additional impact to streets, transportation
facilities, utilities, or schools.
8. Whether the zoning proposal adversely impacts the environment or surrounding natural
resources.
The proposed zoning modification request will not adversely impact the environment or
surrounding natural resources.
CONCLUSION
The proposed development and the modification request meet the intent of the comprehensive plan to
promote adaptive reuse and infill development in the office park at Northlake, specifically by providing
expanded services and conveniences for tenants. The condition change that has been requested meets
the intent of the original condition and provides a safer, more attractive option/amenity for the
townhome development.

MODIFICATION JUSTIFICATION
2245 Northlake Parkway
1. Whether the zoning proposal is in conformity with the policy and intent of the comprehensive
plan.
The zoning proposal is in conformity with the policy and intent of the comprehensive plan. The
property is currently zoned NL-4 with conditions as approved on June 14, 2021 in Ordinance No.
O2021-05-08. The request by this application is to revise Condition #8 to allow visitor parking to
be located in the parking garage as opposed to the surface lot on the adjacent parcel at 2247
Northlake Parkway that is the subject of an SLUP application being filed simultaneously herewith,
which will allow parking and other amenities available for the townhome development on the
subject property.
2. Whether the zoning proposal will permit a use that is suitable in view of the use and
development of adjacent and nearby property or properties.
The zoning proposal requests only to change Condition #8 as stated above. Nothing else about the
property or the development is being revised or otherwise modified. To accommodate the adaptive
reuse of the adjacent office building, the visitor parking needs to be moved to the parking garage
to accommodate the development of a fire lane in that location. This request does not change the
previously approved use and is suitable in view of the adjacent and nearby properties.
3. Whether the property to be affected by the zoning proposal has a reasonable economic use as
currently zoned.
The property has a reasonable economic use as currently zoned and there are no changes being
proposed to the current zoning. Only a change to the existing conditions of approval is proposed
to allow movement of the visitor parking to the parking deck on the adjacent office parcel.
4. Whether the zoning proposal will adversely affect the existing use or usability of adjacent or
nearby property or properties.
The proposal to modify Condition #8 will not adversely affect the existing uses or usability of the
adjacent or nearby properties.
5. Whether there are other existing or changing conditions affecting the use and development
of the property which give supporting grounds for either approval or disapproval of the
zoning proposal.
The proposed adaptive reuse of the adjacent office building directly affects the development of the
subject property and allows for a more cohesive development between the two parcels. As such,
the proposed modification to Condition #8 to allow visitor parking to be moved to the parking
garage is aligned with this cohesion and allows the fire lane to be located where the visitor parking
was originally approved. Once completed, the residents and visitors of the subject property will
have access to the features and amenities of the rear office parcel. RECEIVED

7. Whether the zoning proposal will result in a use which will or could cause an excessive or
burdensome use of existing streets, transportation facilities, utilities, or schools.
The proposed change of conditions does not impact the prior approved zoning on this property as
it relates to this criteria.
8. Whether the zoning proposal adversely impacts the environment or surrounding natural

Kimley-Horn is pleased to provide this memorandum regarding the project trip generation for the
proposed Northlake Parkway development in the City of Tucker, Georgia.
The site currently consists of an approximately 148,000 square foot (SF) office building which will be
demolished. As currently envisioned, Northlake Parkway development will consist of 80 townhomes.
The trip generation comparison will be based on the following scenarios:
The purpose of this memorandum is to compare the trip generation potential of the current land use
versus the proposed land use.
TRIP GENERATIO N
Project traffic, for the purposes of this evaluation, is defined as the vehicle trips expected to be
generated by the proposed development. Anticipated trip generation for the Northlake Parkway
development was calculated using rates and equations contained in the Institute of Transportation
Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, 2017. RECEIVED

RE: SDM Northlake Multifamily – City of Tucker, Georgia – Trip Generation Comparison
Kimley-Horn is pleased to provide this memorandum regarding the project trip generation for the
proposed SDM Northlake Multifamily development in the City of Tucker, Georgia.
The SDM Northlake Multifamily development is a proposed conversion of an unoccupied 9-story office
building (299,775 SF) to a multifamily residential development located on 5.04 acres at 2247 Northlake
Parkway in the City of Tucker, Georgia. Please see Figure 1 for an aerial of the site. Adjacent to the
multifamily development, a separate 80-townhome development (new construction) is proposed.
TRIP GENERATIO N
Project traffic, for the purposes of this evaluation, is defined as the vehicle trips expected to be
generated by the proposed development. Anticipated trip generation for the Northlake Parkway
development was calculated using rates and equations contained in the Institute of Transportation
Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, 2017. RECEIVED

SDM Northlake
City of Tucker, Georgia
April 2022
04/19/2022
SDM Northlake seeks to redevelop the existing Office property along of Northlake Parkway and Northlake Center Drive,
including two (2) office buildings and one (1) parking deck. The site is located adjacent to commercial and residential areas.
According to the site review, there are no FEMA floodplains, jurisdictional streams, wildlife habitat, or environmentally
sensitive areas located within the property boundary.
SDM Northlake is seeking to demolish one (1) existing office building and to re-develop the front portion of the property in
its location with approximately 80 Townhome Residential units. The second existing office building and parking deck are
proposed to remain and are proposed to be converted to 200 Multifamily Residential units. Please refer to the site plan
included for additional detail (Figure 5).
In accordance with the City of Tucker’s Comprehensive Plan approved on April 23, 2018, the future use of the SDM Northlake
property will maintain the City’s vision of “preserving and improving neighborhoods” as well as “bolstering [the City’s}
economic base.” The property seeks to repurpose an underutilized commercial development to further align with the City’s
vision.
The subject property totals approximately 14+/- acres and is located along of Northlake Parkway and Northlake Center Drive
within the City of Tucker in DeKalb County, Georgia (Figure 1). An existing site survey was completed by Moreland Altobelli
Associates, Inc. on August 24, 2017 (Figure 4).
A desktop analysis was performed using various online and GIS data sources to gain an understanding of the property’s
conditions and potential resources. These sources include wetlands, floodplains, streams/stream buffers, topography, slope,
vegetation, and documented protected species and cultural resources. A detailed site delineation of streams and wetlands
was not performed.
a. Wetlands
According to the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), there are no mapped wetlands located within or adjacent to the property
boundary. Known and potential aquatic resources are illustrated on Figure 2.
b. Floodplain
Areas classified as 100-year floodplains are subject to regulations that limit the extent to which development and fill activities
can occur. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM)
Information, the subject property does not contain 100-year floodplains (Zone A) and is illustrated on Figure 2.
c. Streams/Stream Buffers
Possible streams were identified using vegetative signatures on aerial photographs, topographic maps, and National
Hydrography Datasets (NHD) (Figures 2 & 3). No jurisdictional streams or their respective stream buffers are located within
the project boundary. A detailed stream delineation and official jurisdictional determination was not performed.

Using the Stone Mountain, GA USGS 7.5-Minute quadrangle topographic maps, slopes and draws were identified within
the site boundaries (Figure 3). The land surface generally slopes from higher points in the southern portion of the property
towards the northern portion of the site.
e. Vegetation
The subject site is dominated by urban development with associated parking lots with surrounding mixed pine/hardwood
forests within the property boundary (Figure 2). The subject site is located within the Southern Outer Piedmont Ecoregion
(Level IV) of Georgia.
f. Wildlife
An online review of protected wildlife and plant species was performed to assess threatened or endangered State and
Federal species that have known occurrences on or near the site. The Federal list of species within the property boundary
in DeKalb County was generated through the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Information for Planning and
Consultation (IPaC) system query report and the State list was generated through the Georgia Department of Natural
Resources (GADNR) Natural Heritage Program (NHP) Species of Concern list. These reports are included in Attachment B.
The IPaC report documented one (1) plant on the federal list in DeKalb County.
The Stone Mountain, GA, NW Quarter Quad reports did not document any species with state protection. Based on the
desktop analysis of the subject project site, critical habitat for State and Federally protected species was not observed within
the property boundary.
At the present time, the State of Georgia does not have state regulations that require State protected species investigations
for privately funded projects. The list of State species both with and without protection are intended to provide the project
with a level of due diligence to satisfy decision making. Based on the information provided by USFWS and GADNR, no
suitable habitat for protected species is not located within the property boundary.
g. Archeological/Historical Sites
An online review of available resources was performed to assess known listed sites that may have cultural or historic
significance (Attachment C). The restricted public access database of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), did
not result in any historic sites within one (1) mile of the property. A review of the Georgia Natural, Archaeological, and Historic
Resources Geographic Information System (GNAHRGIS) database was performed and did not result in any designated or
listed cultural resource located within one (1) mile of the proposed project site. Based on the current land use plan, it is
reasonably probable that direct impacts to cultural resources and their viewsheds are not expected to occur.

Endangered species
This resource list is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an analysis of
project level impacts.
The primary information used to generate this list is the known or expected range of each species.
Additional areas of in uence (AOI) for species are also considered. An AOI includes areas outside of
the species range if the species could be indirectly a ected by activities in that area (e.g., placing a
dam upstream of a sh population even if that sh does not occur at the dam site, may indirectly
impact the species by reducing or eliminating water ow downstream). Because species can move,
and site conditions can change, the species on this list are not guaranteed to be found on or near
the project area. To fully determine any potential e ects to species, additional site-speci c and
project-speci c information is often required.
Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act requires Federal agencies to "request of the Secretary
information whether any species which is listed or proposed to be listed may be present in the area
of such proposed action" for any project that is conducted, permitted, funded, or licensed by any
Federal agency. A letter from the local o ce and a species list which ful lls this requirement can
only be obtained by requesting an o cial species list from either the Regulatory Review section in
IPaC (see directions below) or from the local eld o ce directly.
For project evaluations that require USFWS concurrence/review, please return to the IPaC website
and request an o cial species list by doing the following:
Listed species1 and their critical habitats are managed by the Ecological Services Program of the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the sheries division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA Fisheries2).
Species and critical habitats under the sole responsibility of NOAA Fisheries are not shown on this
list. Please contact NOAA Fisheries for species under their jurisdiction.
1. Species listed under the Endangered Species Act are threatened or endangered; IPaC also shows
species that are candidates, or proposed, for listing. See the listing status page for more
information. IPaC only shows species that are regulated by USFWS (see FAQ).
2. NOAA Fisheries, also known as the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), is an o ce of the

Critical habitats
Potential e ects to critical habitat(s) in this location must be analyzed along with the endangered
species themselves.
Migratory birds
Certain birds are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act1 and the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act2.
Any person or organization who plans or conducts activities that may result in impacts to migratory
birds, eagles, and their habitats should follow appropriate regulations and consider implementing
appropriate conservation measures, as described below.
The birds listed below are birds of particular concern either because they occur on the USFWS Birds
of Conservation Concern (BCC) list or warrant special attention in your project location. To learn
more about the levels of concern for birds on your list and how this list is generated, see the FAQ
below. This is not a list of every bird you may nd in this location, nor a guarantee that every bird on
this list will be found in your project area. To see exact locations of where birders and the general
public have sighted birds in and around your project area, visit the E-bird data mapping tool (Tip:
enter your location, desired date range and a species on your list). For projects that occur o the

Probability of Presence ( )
Each green bar represents the bird's relative probability of presence in the 10km grid cell(s) your
project overlaps during a particular week of the year. (A year is represented as 12 4-week months.)
A taller bar indicates a higher probability of species presence. The survey e ort (see below) can be
used to establish a level of con dence in the presence score. One can have higher con dence in the
presence score if the corresponding survey e ort is also high.
How is the probability of presence score calculated? The calculation is done in three steps:
1. The probability of presence for each week is calculated as the number of survey events in the
week where the species was detected divided by the total number of survey events for that
week. For example, if in week 12 there were 20 survey events and the Spotted Towhee was
found in 5 of them, the probability of presence of the Spotted Towhee in week 12 is 0.25.
2. To properly present the pattern of presence across the year, the relative probability of presence
is calculated. This is the probability of presence divided by the maximum probability of presence
across all weeks. For example, imagine the probability of presence in week 20 for the Spotted
Towhee is 0.05, and that the probability of presence at week 12 (0.25) is the maximum of any
week of the year. The relative probability of presence on week 12 is 0.25/0.25 = 1; at week 20 it is
0.05/0.25 = 0.2.
3. The relative probability of presence calculated in the previous step undergoes a statistical
conversion so that all possible values fall between 0 and 10, inclusive. This is the probability of
presence score.
To see a bar's probability of presence score, simply hover your mouse cursor over the bar.

No Data ( )
A week is marked as having no data if there were no survey events for that week.
Survey Timeframe
Surveys from only the last 10 years are used in order to ensure delivery of currently relevant
information. The exception to this is areas o the Atlantic coast, where bird returns are based on all
years of available data, since data in these areas is currently much more sparse.
Tell me more about conservation measures I can implement to avoid or minimize impacts to migratory birds.
Nationwide Conservation Measures describes measures that can help avoid and minimize impacts to all birds at
any location year round. Implementation of these measures is particularly important when birds are most likely to
occur in the project area. When birds may be breeding in the area, identifying the locations of any active nests and
avoiding their destruction is a very helpful impact minimization measure. To see when birds are most likely to
occur and be breeding in your project area, view the Probability of Presence Summary. Additional measures or
permits may be advisable depending on the type of activity you are conducting and the type of infrastructure or
bird species present on your project site.
What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring in my speci ed location?
The Migratory Bird Resource List is comprised of USFWS Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) and other species
that may warrant special attention in your project location.
The migratory bird list generated for your project is derived from data provided by the Avian Knowledge Network
(AKN). The AKN data is based on a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen science datasets and is
queried and ltered to return a list of those birds reported as occurring in the 10km grid cell(s) which your project
intersects, and that have been identi ed as warranting special attention because they are a BCC species in that
area, an eagle (Eagle Act requirements may apply), or a species that has a particular vulnerability to o shore
activities or development.
Again, the Migratory Bird Resource list includes only a subset of birds that may occur in your project area. It is not
representative of all birds that may occur in your project area. To get a list of all birds potentially present in your
project area, please visit the AKN Phenology Tool.
What does IPaC use to generate the probability of presence graphs for the migratory birds potentially
occurring in my speci ed location?
The probability of presence graphs associated with your migratory bird list are based on data provided by the
Avian Knowledge Network (AKN). This data is derived from a growing collection of survey, banding, and citizen
science datasets .
Probability of presence data is continuously being updated as new and better information becomes available. To
learn more about how the probability of presence graphs are produced and how to interpret them, go the
Probability of Presence Summary and then click on the "Tell me about these graphs" link.

How do I know if a bird is breeding, wintering, migrating or present year-round in my project area?
To see what part of a particular bird's range your project area falls within (i.e. breeding, wintering, migrating or
year-round), you may refer to the following resources: The Cornell Lab of Ornithology All About Birds Bird 04/19/2022
Guide, or
(if you are unsuccessful in locating the bird of interest there), the Cornell Lab of Ornithology Neotropical Birds
guide. If a bird on your migratory bird species list has a breeding season associated with it, if that birdPLANNING
does occur& ZONING
in your project area, there may be nests present at some point within the timeframe speci ed. If "BreedsDEPARTMENT
elsewhere" is indicated, then the bird likely does not breed in your project area.

Migratory birds delivered through IPaC fall into the following distinct categories of concern:
1. "BCC Rangewide" birds are Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) that are of concern throughout their range
anywhere within the USA (including Hawaii, the Paci c Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands);
2. "BCC - BCR" birds are BCCs that are of concern only in particular Bird Conservation Regions (BCRs) in the
continental USA; and
3. "Non-BCC - Vulnerable" birds are not BCC species in your project area, but appear on your list either because of
the Eagle Act requirements (for eagles) or (for non-eagles) potential susceptibilities in o shore areas from
certain types of development or activities (e.g. o shore energy development or longline shing).
Although it is important to try to avoid and minimize impacts to all birds, e orts should be made, in particular, to
avoid and minimize impacts to the birds on this list, especially eagles and BCC species of rangewide concern. For
more information on conservation measures you can implement to help avoid and minimize migratory bird
impacts and requirements for eagles, please see the FAQs for these topics.
For additional details about the relative occurrence and abundance of both individual bird species and groups of
bird species within your project area o the Atlantic Coast, please visit the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The Portal
also o ers data and information about other taxa besides birds that may be helpful to you in your project review.
Alternately, you may download the bird model results les underlying the portal maps through the NOAA NCCOS
Integrative Statistical Modeling and Predictive Mapping of Marine Bird Distributions and Abundance on the Atlantic
Outer Continental Shelf project webpage.
Bird tracking data can also provide additional details about occurrence and habitat use throughout the year,
including migration. Models relying on survey data may not include this information. For additional information on
marine bird tracking data, see the Diving Bird Study and the nanotag studies or contact Caleb Spiegel or Pam
Loring.
If your project has the potential to disturb or kill eagles, you may need to obtain a permit to avoid violating the
Eagle Act should such impacts occur.
The migratory bird list generated is not a list of all birds in your project area, only a subset of birds of priority
concern. To learn more about how your list is generated, and see options for identifying what other birds may be
in your project area, please see the FAQ "What does IPaC use to generate the migratory birds potentially occurring
in my speci ed location". Please be aware this report provides the "probability of presence" of birds within the 10
km grid cell(s) that overlap your project; not your exact project footprint. On the graphs provided, please also look
carefully at the survey e ort (indicated by the black vertical bar) and for the existence of the "no data" indicator (a
red horizontal bar). A high survey e ort is the key component. If the survey e ort is high, then the probability of
presence score can be viewed as more dependable. In contrast, a low survey e ort bar or no data bar means a lack
of data and, therefore, a lack of certainty about presence of the species. This list is not perfect; it is simply a starting
point for identifying what birds of concern have the potential to be in your project area, when they might be there,
and if they might be breeding (which means nests might be present). The list helps you know what to look for to
con rm presence, and helps guide you in knowing when to implement conservation measures to avoid or
minimize potential impacts from your project activities, should presence be con rmed. To learn more about RECEIVED

Data limitations
The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level
information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high
altitude imagery. Wetlands are identi ed based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error
is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in
revision of the wetland boundaries or classi cation established through image analysis.
The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts,
the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth veri cation work conducted.
Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.
Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or eld work. There may be
occasional di erences in polygon boundaries or classi cations between the information depicted on the map and
the actual conditions on site.

Data exclusions CITY OF TUCKER
Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial
04/19/2022
imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged
aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters.

Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuber cid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory.
These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.
Data precautions
Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may de ne and describe wetlands in a
di erent manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this
inventory, to de ne the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish
the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in
activities involving modi cations within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal,
state, or local agencies concerning speci ed agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may
a ect such activities.
