U88-74 — Private K-12 school (school building renovation and expansion, including new parish life center, renovated church, new gymnatorium, and new middle school wing) in Sandy Springs, GA

Request for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a private K-12 school (St. Jude the Apostle Catholic School) in an RE zoning district, with campus expansion and renovation plans. The use has been established since 1960 with no change to operational characteristics; however, several existing site elements (refuse area, outdoor recreation area, and parking areas) are located within required setbacks from Protected Neighborhoods and may require variances to remain in place.
