Project Information
COF Project Number: 6875
Applicant: Greg Gamble, Gamble Design
Owner: Evan Vlaeminck, GCI Residential
Background/Staff Comments
This property is currently a 12+/- acre tract within a larger parcel being considered by FMPC and the BOMA as part of the Huffines Property PUD Subdivision. For this portion of the parcel, Envision Franklin recommends a Regional Commerce design concept.
The Regional Commerce design concept contains high-intensity activity centers that attract large numbers of people and employers from both within and outside the City. These areas include major employment and revenue generators that are valuable community resources.
The proposed mix of uses (Attached Residential, Office, and Hotel) as outlined in the Huffines Property PUD Development Plan (Resolution 2019-09) combined with the area for Conservation (Ordinance 2019-02) meet the intent of Envision Franklin.
