Project Information
COF Project Number: 6438
Applicant: Jonathan Sanders, Earthworks Design LLC
Owner: George Tomlin
Background/Staff Comments
The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from R-1 to R-2. This property is within the Single-Family Residential Design Concept of Envision Franklin, which supports single-family, detached residential lots, specifically when compatibly sized to the established residential development pattern of the surrounding area. Therefore, R-2 zoning is supported for this property.
Project Considerations
Substantial off-site sewer work will be necessary in order to serve the subject property with sanitary sewer. As discussed in the preliminary meeting, the existing low-pressure sewer serving the existing property is only sufficient for serving the current single-family residence that exists on the property and will not support further subdivision. The applicant shall be aware that successful rezoning of the property does not guarantee sewer availability.
Recommendation
recommendation
Recommend Favorably To The Board Of Mayor And Aldermen.
