The site is located on a capped landfill but has received approval by Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) to build upon the landfill, per the soil management plan. The rezoning to permit the multifamily residential use on this site (Ordinance 2015-42) was favorably recommended to the BOMA at the 9/27/2015 FMPC meeting.
Design Modification
The applicant requests a Design Modification from Section 5.3.5 (b) (ii) to allow for an attached residential building to be longer than 200 feet.
