In a unanimous decision, Develop Fulton’s Board of Directors has greenlit a $149 million economic package for Hutch Development LLC, paving the way for a landmark mixed-use development poised to inject fresh investment and catalyze economic momentum along the Campbellton Road corridor in South Fulton.
Develop Fulton officials hail Sandtown Village—at 5746 Campbellton Road—as a pivotal advancement in enriching South Fulton’s residential, commercial, and leisure offerings.
Panel OKs South Fulton Development Plan for Sandtown Village
The initiative encompasses roughly 288 multifamily apartment units alongside up to 120,000 square feet of retail and commercial space.
It further dedicates over 10 acres to lush greenspace, complete with preserved wetlands, scenic boardwalks, and winding nature trails.
Beyond the incentive scope, the developer plans to add 74 single-family homes and 58 townhomes, injecting an extra $60 million in private capital.
Crafted to harmonize expansion with everyday quality of life, Sandtown Village promises substantial upgrades in infrastructure and sustainability, including:
- A $5.5 million commitment to greenspace and eco-friendly features;
- $1.3 million for addressing complex terrain and wetland restoration;
- And $7 million in road improvements, highlighted by a multi-lane roundabout endorsed by the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority to enhance safety and ease congestion.
“This is yet another dynamic venture in Fulton County, weaving together diverse housing options, economic momentum, and robust community alliances,” said Develop Fulton Chairman Kwanza Hall. “Sandtown Village signals a major infusion of resources that will revitalize this vital corridor, creating a vibrant hub where people live, work, and flourish amid innovative, community-centric design.”
Aligning seamlessly with Develop Fulton’s mission to promote intelligent, equitable progress across the county, the completed project is forecasted to generate 366 full-time positions, 191 part-time roles, and 1,800 construction opportunities—bolstering the local labor market and commercial ecosystem.
Financial forecasts underscore the project’s fiscal impact: The site presently yields about $18,199 in yearly ad valorem taxes. During the incentive term, it’s anticipated to surge to over $16.5 million in annual revenue, fortifying Fulton County’s budgetary resilience.
“Sandtown Village stands as a prime example of how strategic development can uplift an entire neighborhood and supercharge Fulton’s revenue streams,” said Develop Fulton Executive Director Sarah-Elizabeth Langford. “Backed by unanimous endorsement from the City of South Fulton, this endeavor fuses creative planning, stakeholder input, and critical infrastructure to reflect deep-rooted community and civic backing for its progressive blueprint.”
