Project Information
COF Project Number: 6254
Applicant: Matt Taylor, Studio 8 Design
Owner: Crews West Main, LLC
Background/Staff Comments
The site plan for Arlington at West Main includes 8 condominium units. The applicant is requesting one design modification for attached residential building length. The rezoning and development plan were favorably recommended to the BOMA on the June FMPC meeting (COF # 6147 & #6148). The building elevations received a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Zoning Commission on September 12, 2016.
Modifications of Standards
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. Staff finds that this is appropriate because the applicant has suitable architectural detailing along their facades. The proposed building length matches the approved development plan.
Staff recommends approval of this Design Modification.
