The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning an annexation request and draft Plan of Services for several properties located east and west of Lewisburg Pike, north and south of the intersection at Stream Valley Boulevard.
Background
Properties included in the proposed development are contiguous to the city limits to the east of Lewisburg Pike, adjacent to the Stream Valley PUD Subdivision. Additional properties proposed to be annexed to the west of Lewisburg Pike would be contiguous to properties at the intersection of Stream Valley Boulevard, as well as property at the intersection of Bushnell Farm Drive. The northernmost subject property on the east side of Lewisburg is within the Single-Family Design Concept in Envision Franklin. The rest of the properties are within Conservation Subdivision Design Concept, and the applicant’s proposed uses would be supported by Envision Franklin. A preliminary plan of the development proposes approximately 700 residences, including single family residences, big house units and duplexes. The Conservation Subdivision Design Concept suggests a minimum of 50 percent natural open space.
