Project Information
COF Project Number: 7068
Applicant: Greg Gamble, Gamble Design Collaborative
Owner: Drees Homes
Background/Staff Comments
The Development plan consists of 20 lots and was previously approved by the Board of Mayor and Alderman on January 12, 2016. The revision the applicant is seeking will affect 11 of those lots, changing the elevations from street-facing garages to be located at the rear of the lot, behind the proposed homes to elevations with front-loaded garages. The lot widths, which were previously approved and are not proposed to change, do not meet the standards of Envision Franklin for front-loaded garages because they are less than 65 feet in width. The remaining lots 12-20 are not affected by this change and no other changes are requested by the applicant.
Because the elevations proposed do not meet the lot minimums in Envision Franklin, staff must recommend disapproval. However, it is important to note that the original development plan was approved prior to the adoption of Envision Franklin, and while infrastructure has been constructed in the last 4 years, the property still remains vacant. Drees Homes proposes this change in order to begin construction activity again and to allow for their home types.
This level of revision to the Development Plan requires FMPC approval only and will not be considered by the BOMA, per the Franklin Zoning Ordinance.
