MARIETTA — The Cobb Board of Commissioners unanimously approved an assisted senior living community off Powder Springs Road during this week’s zoning hearing.
Owner Chuck Owuzo is proposing a two-story senior-living building with 66 residential units between Horseshoe Bend and Pair Road on Powder Springs Road.
Earlier this month, Owuzo came before the Cobb Planning Commission and presented an updated site plan to address the Cobb Department of Transportation’s concerns and eliminate previously requested waivers.
Following his presentation, the Cobb Planning Commission recommended approval to the Board of Commissioners with a 5-0 vote.
According to the updated site plan, the 30-foot building will consist of 62,753 square feet of heated space across two stories and a basement.
The building’s exterior will be done in brick, stone and stucco with shingle roofing to be compatible with neighboring properties.
The 4,334-square-foot ground floor will house electric and mechanical utilities as well as a laundry room, employee break room and housekeeping office.
