Consideration of Resolution No. 2018-42, To Be Entitled: “A Resolution to Initiate a Plan Amendment to Envision Franklin for the City-Owned Property at 403 and 405 5th Avenue North, known as “The Hill Property.” (04/24/18 WS, 05/22/18 WS)

Purpose

The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning the future use of the Hill Property located at the City-owned property at 403 and 405 5th Avenue North.

 

Background

Three design scenarios were discussed and reviewed at the 4/24/2018 BOMA work session.  Since time at the work session was compressed, a continued BOMA discussion and public comment was conducted at the 5/22/2018 work session.  A draft resolution has been created with three options for the BOMA to choose from to give authority to staff to initiate moving forward with Envision Franklin.  To clarify, both residential design concept options would also support civic and institutional uses on this property.

 

The consultant, Tuck-Hinton Architects, developed the concepts focused on each of the following uses: recreation, compact housing, and mixed residential. A neighborhood meeting was held on February 15, 2018 where the design scenarios were presented and a paper survey was provided.  On the same day, an online survey was distributed and remained open until March 14, 2018.  The neighborhood meeting resulted in 101 people in attendance and 80 returned survey responses, and the online survey resulted in 1,517 survey responses.  Survey results and responses are attached.
