Project Information
COF Project Number: 6250
Applicant: Greg Gamble, Gamble Design Collaborative
Owner: Goodall Homes Inc.
Land Use Plan
The property is located within the West Harpeth Character Overlay 3 (WHCO-3). The West Harpeth Character Area states:
1. This area is appropriate for a Hamlet, a Conservation Subdivision or a TND pursuant to a Master Plan and that at least fifty percent of the area-targeted towards environmentally sensitive or scenic areas and vistas-is preserved as permanent open space.
Background/Staff Comments
This site is vacant and zoned for the Agriculture (AG) District. The proposed zoning is consistent with the neighboring subdivisions. The applicant is requesting to rezone only a 14.04-acre portion of the parcel since 23.53 acres of the parcel are undevelopable and located solely in the 100-year floodplain or floodway. For maintenance purposes, the 23.53-acre tract will not be included in the subdivision. Due to the significant open space provided by the separate, undevelopable acreage, the plan meets the spirit and intent of the Land Use Plan.
Recommendation
recommendation
