Cobb commissioners allow accessory dwelling units and adopt data center standards
The Cobb Board of Commissioners voted 3-2 to allow accessory dwelling units by special land use permit, capped at 850 square feet and half the main home's floor area. The board also adopted a data center definition with 300-foot setbacks from residential, church and school property lines and noise limits of 65 decibels by day and 55 at night. The action follows a six-month data center moratorium that was extended in August.
Why it matters: Backyard units add a new, case-by-case path for small rental or multigenerational-use housing in Cobb, while the setback and noise rules shape where large data center campuses can locate relative to existing neighborhoods. The site is about 6 miles south of Chastain Lakes.
Cobb sets 50 units per acre cap and bedroom-based counting for student housing
Cobb commissioners voted 3-2 to count density at student housing developments by bedroom, with two bedrooms equal to one dwelling unit, and to cap it at 50 units per acre, or about 100 bedrooms per acre. Such projects still need a special land use permit and a public hearing. Earlier drafts proposed 60 units per acre, and two commissioners sought 30.
Why it matters: A defined density ceiling gives developers of purpose-built student housing near Cobb campuses a clearer standard and affects how much of this housing type can be added per site. The site is about 7 miles south of Chastain Lakes.
French bistro Brasserie Genevieve to open on Marietta Square in November
Brasserie Genevieve, a French bistro and bar, is set to open at 45 West Park Square in Marietta, in the building that previously housed Piastra. Owners Georganne Rose and Salem Makhlouf plan breakfast service from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. the week before Thanksgiving, with dinner to follow once a liquor license is issued.
Why it matters: Another sit-down dining option on the Square adds to the walkable restaurant mix and keeps a prominent corner building in use. The project is about 6 miles south of Chastain Lakes, elsewhere in Cobb County.
Cobb commissioners approve CobbLinc Go microtransit expansion to Acworth and Kennesaw
Cobb County commissioners voted 3-2 to expand the on-demand CobbLinc Go pilot, which has run for two years in south Cobb, to Acworth and Kennesaw. The county DOT expects about 90 percent of funding to come from a trust and grants, and service is planned for October.
Why it matters: On-demand rides in northwest Cobb would add a low-cost transit option for trips to jobs, shopping and rail or bus connections for residents without a car. The site is about 5 miles southwest of Chastain Lakes.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 147 Lakeside Drive and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 147 Lakeside Drive was built in 1985 and has 2,938 sq ft of living area, 4 bedrooms and 3.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 147 Lakeside Drive in?
147 Lakeside Drive is in Chastain Lakes in Kennesaw, Cobb County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
How are property taxes on 147 Lakeside Drive estimated?
The estimate on this page (about $5,775 per year) assumes the county reassesses at the list price. Georgia counties reassess after a sale and exemptions such as homestead must be applied for by the new owner, so the seller's current bill is not a guide. Confirm with the county tax assessor.
Is 147 Lakeside Drive in a flood zone?
The FEMA flood map places this parcel in Zone X, outside the special flood hazard area, so flood insurance is not usually required by a lender. It is still available and worth quoting; confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
