ABOUT ANSLEY PARK AND APCA

First developed in 1904, Ansley Park was the dream of Edwin P. Ansley who along with several prominent businessmen of the time, purchased a large plot of land north of the city from longtime owner George Washington Collier. Ansley envisioned a new motorcar-oriented suburb of wide winding streets and green parks.

Ansley's vision of a gracious, harmonious neighborhood that would be an oasis in the midst of the bustling city of Atlanta lives on today, in great part thanks to the efforts of the Ansley Park Civic Association (APCA) . Since the 1960's, the Association has been an active force in maintaining the neighborhood's integrity, safety, and sense of community.

Ansley Park in Peril

20% of Ansley Park to be rezoned multi-family, other changes to R4 requirements

What is happening?

Drastic changes in the zoning ordinances governing Ansley Park have been introduced by Councilmember Amir Farokhi in conjunction with the City's Planning Department. These changes would totally change the ambiance of our neighborhood. Here are the facts and a call to action.

21-O-0454 / Z-21-73 – Rezones select parcels within a half mile of walking distance of MARTA stations from R4 (single family residential) to MR/MU including a significant portion of Ansley Park – FACT SHEET - ORDINANCE
21-O-0455 / Z-21-73 – Amends the future land use of certain parcels in the comprehensive development plan (CDP) from single family to medium density residential. The stated goal is to allow the rezoning proposed in 21-O-0454; it should be noted, however, that medium density residential also allows various other zoning categories including RG3 (see recent examples on Piedmont) and categories with some limited commercial usage - ORDINANCE
21-O-0456 / Z-21-74 – Includes various changes MR/MU, removes requirements for off-street parking, allows subdividing of lots, to separately sell Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). FACT SHEET - ORDINANCE

Upcoming Events

Ansley Park Forever has put together what we are calling a “learning tool”; a treasure trove of information to educate neighbors about change that affects Ansley Park; what is at risk, our history of community involvement and great neighborhood planning, an explanation and examples of Historic/Landmark Districts in Atlanta. It contains a lot of information, so, we want to allow all residents the time to read what we’ve written, click the links to articles, web sites and studies, and then do their own research. Then we want to start a conversation to see if our community wants to explore further.
