Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning advancing the proposed annexation of 29.15 acres of property in the City's planning and development process.
Background
The applicant, Greg Gamble, has requested annexation of 29.15 acres of property located on the east side of South Carothers Road across from the Lockwood Glen Subdivision. The applicant is proposing to develop the site for residential uses only, and is also working to construct a roadway connection from South Carothers Road, through these properties, and connecting to the adjacent property to the north. The property to the north (herein called "the Adams Property") has already received a favorable vote from BOMA to initiate the annexation process, and the applicant is finalizing the development plan for the site. The current use of both sites is single family residential.
Plan of Services
The Plan of Services for this site has not yet been drafted; however it is expected that the Plan of Services would be similar to the draft Plan of Services provided with the Adams Property. A copy of the Adams Property draft Plan of Services is attached.
