Developer presents plan for 109‑room Home2 Suites; commissioners flag Comprehensive Plan conflict

Apr 22, 2025

A first reading was held for a request to rezone roughly 3.7 acres along Frogtown Connector Road for a four‑story, 109‑room Home2 Suites. Commissioner Chet Hand said the project conflicts with the Comprehensive Plan; the applicant will supply sight‑line materials ahead of the May 6 second reading.

The full story

At first reading on April 22, the Boone County Fiscal Court heard a presentation from developer David Whitley and county staff on a proposed Home2 Suites extended‑stay hotel along Frogtown Connector Road. The applicant described a four‑story design with 109 rooms; staff said a four‑story footprint was necessary for the franchise’s performa and room counts. County Administrator Matthew H. Webster and Deputy County Administrator Matt Dowling participated in the discussion.
