June 29, 2001 ■Model Transit-Oriented District Overlay Zoning Ordinanceat outlying MARTA stations. M On-site parking at Lindbergh costs $60 dollars per month, ratherthan being free as it would be in a typical suburban office park. Moreover, MARTA hasexpressed the desire to eliminate some parking as transit ridership numbers increase. NThis site was originally a hodgepodge of zoning designations from the 1960’s and 1970’s,including C-3, MF, and Industrial. The portions that were C-3 remain in the new plan, because itallows mixed-use development. The other zones were changed to a mixed-use designation toaccommodate office buildings with retail on the ground floor. In terms of zoning that relatesspecifically to the transit stations in the remaining part of the system MARTA is still workingwith the city to get a Special Public Interest Zoning District applied to the site. It will be the firsttime an SPI is located this far out from the center city, and although it does not affect the currentproject, any future development would occur under this designation.Figure 3.2: Office buildings and Parking Garages areorganized around a Central Boulevard.
