Library Rezoning, Senior Health Screenings and More

What's new in the North Druid Hills-Briarcliff area? Here are five things to know as you start your day.

Briarcliff Library meeting. There will be a follow-up meeting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday on the proposed rezoning of the former Briarcliff Library, 2775 Briarcliff Road. The Library wants to sell the property and seeks to rezone it from RM-150 to O-I (Office & Institutional).

The Thursday meeting follows up on a previous community meeting as part of the overall rezoning process. DeKalb County Public Library Director Alison Weissinger said nearby residents were invited to tonight's meeting after concerns over the zoning had been raised in the last meeting.

Weissinger said that a proposal to relocate the Dresden Drive county tag office to the Briarcliff location was "not an option" and that it was simply "an idea at one point." The rezoning is necessary for the Library to sell the property.
