PUBLIC HEARING: Consideration Of Resolution 2019-131, A Resolution Initiating The Annexation Process And Draft Plan Of Services, For The Annexation Of 841 Old Charlotte Pike. (WS 2/11/20)
body
Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information to the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen (BOMA) concerning an annexation request for the property located at 841 Old Charlotte Pike.
Background
The property being considered is contiguous to the City limits at the southern border of the property and is within the City’s Urban Growth Boundary (UGB).
The subject property is within the Conversation Subdivision Design Concept. The applicant has not submitted plans, but in preliminary discussions, indicates that they will be proposing 154 single family detached and attached townhome units within their development, should the property be annexed. This type land use would be generally supported by Envision Franklin, although full details remain to be worked out.
Connect Franklin identifies a north/south collector street in this area, and right-of-way dedication would be required from the property owner upon development of the site.
Sewer capacity will need to be a consideration in the annexation of this property. A study of the Westhaven Sanitary Sewer Lift Station will need to be completed in order to verify capacity for additional flows generated from potential development of the site.
Recommendation
rec
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2019-131, initiating the annexation process and draft plan of services.
