Held over: Annexation for residential development
Council held over an ordinance annexing a 4.68-acre parcel at 770 Brockman McClimon Road into the city and establishing an initial zoning classification of traditional neighborhood.
The applicant, Carolyn B. Hamby plans to combine the property with four adjacent parcels totaling 20 acres for a mixed single-family detached/townhome residential development. If approved, the measure would pave the way for all five properties to be joined in a 25-acre project involving a projected total of 166 units.
This item will go before the City Council for final approval Jan. 28.
