The meeting focused on neighborhood association business, with participants discussing infrastructure issues and meeting attendance challenges. Chuck reported hearing running water in a drain pipe behind Ann Street but found no visible water source from the culvert, and requested contact information for Jim to report the issue. The group discussed low meeting attendance, with only five people present, and explored ways to improve community engagement beyond Facebook, including email outreach to specific residents. Paul mentioned sending an email to 290 people and noted that meeting recordings are now available on the website. The group also reviewed updates from a recent executive meeting, including presentations about potential property subdivisions and a large development proposal for Ellsworth location involving 290 apartment units in an 8-story building near the Beltline.
NPU-D Agenda for June 23 2026 7:30PM
The meeting focused on two main presentations and updates for the Bolton NPU community. Keith presented a subdivision application for 2266 Collins Drive, explaining plans to divide a single house into three lots as a minor subdivision to avoid sewer installation requirements before approval. Annie from Trees Atlanta then discussed proposed tree plantings along Whetstone Creek Trail, outlining plans to plant 30-40 trees between October and March to provide shade, beautify the area, and help with flooding issues. Keith provided additional context about ongoing Watershed projects in the area and offered to connect Annie with the appropriate Watershed contact. Jennifer provided an update on the mural project being completed by Ashley, which is scheduled to finish before June 1st with a celebration planned for June 18th. The conversation ended with a brief overview of upcoming MPUD meeting agenda items, including zoning proposals for the Logan Circle area and various wine distribution matters, though these would need to be deferred due to lack of quorum for voting.
(This month's meeting was skipped.)
The meeting focused on Ashley's presentation of her proposed mural project for the CSX wall on Bolton Road. Ashley shared her detailed design plans, which incorporate local history, nature, and community members, including plans for community participation through tile painting. The group discussed logistics around timing, with the mural presentation scheduled for the April MPUD meeting, followed by wall preparation and painting. The meeting also included a brief review of the organization's bylaws, with participants discussing the decision to follow Robert's Rules only for voting, while maintaining a roundtable discussion format for most meetings.
The meeting focused on two main topics: an update on a culvert replacement project and the introduction of new neighborhood association bylaws. Doug Voss provided details on the extensive culvert replacement work that will require closing the trail for approximately one month, with engineering review and contractor selection pending. The group then reviewed draft bylaws for a new neighborhood organization, which Andy explained were created to address issues with the existing Bolton Neighborhood Association. The bylaws outline a 501c4 organization with an executive committee structure, quarterly meetings. The conversation ended with a brief update on upcoming MPUD agenda items, including parking reduction requests and alcohol license applications for new businesses in the Westside Market area.
The Bolton neighborhood association held its inaugural meeting to establish communication lines and discuss plans for association bylaws and upcoming NPUD meetings. The board reviewed and approved various license change applications while discussing a variance request for a sports bar, which will be addressed at the NPU level. The group also explored options for preserving historic homes in the neighborhood and agreed to research different classifications and designations for potential solutions.
