Industrial developer KMT Partners faced strong community resistance in South Fulton, Georgia, leading to the city's initial denial of their rezoning request for a large warehouse campus. This denial prompted KMT Partners to file a lawsuit against the City of South Fulton. Following the legal action, city leaders reversed their earlier decision regarding the rezoning. Further advancing the project, a Fulton County agency has since granted preliminary approval for a $9.3 million tax break to KMT Partners, despite the ongoing controversy surrounding the development.
