About Us
The volunteer officers guiding NPU-G's city planning recommendations to Atlanta City Council and the Mayor.
City Council Districts
NPU-G brings together 13 Westside neighborhoods as one community, reviewing decisions for land use & licenses. Neighborhood Planning Units are Atlanta's official community voice on city planning.
Each month, NPUs review rezoning and variance requests, liquor licenses, festivals and parades, fee changes, Comprehensive Development Plan updates, and zoning ordinance amendments, then send a formal community recommendation to the city.
Atlanta’s NPU system was created in 1974 so historically disenfranchised residents would have a durable seat in planning. This lives in the City Charter and cannot be casually removed.
