Planning staff presented both plats and described street extensions, cul‑de‑sac bulb designs and creek crossings associated with the proposals. \"This is a request for final final plat approval at the retreat at Finch Branch. And, this plat, this is section 4, and they're proposing 38 lots on 16.91 acres,\" staff member Logan said of Section 4. For Section 3, Logan described 40 lots on 20.75 acres, noting the extension of Spring Street and Purple Finch Court and the box culvert under construction for a roadway crossing.

A project representative confirmed that, except for the identified common areas, the lots are buildable. The commission asked about paving and bond estimates; city staff responded that the paving topping layer (one‑and‑one‑half‑inch asphalt) was the relevant bonded item and that staff used median/average comparisons with similar projects to validate the $210,000 estimate in the packet.

Commissioners moved to approve each final plat \"as submitted,\" and both motions carried by voice vote. Staff reminded the commission and applicants to remove \"review purposes only\" language from documents prior to final signatures.

Next steps include the applicant recording the plats and constructing the street and drainage improvements shown in the plans. The plats sit adjacent to industrially zoned land on several sides, but planning staff said mature landscaping and buffers currently separate the residential area from surrounding warehouses and distribution uses.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","La Vergne Planning Commission Meeting - 5/27/25","oneSentenceSummary","The commission approved final plats for Finch Branch Sections 3 and 4, totaling 78 lots on about 37.66 acres; staff said most lots are buildable, with common areas and cul‑de‑sac/bulb street extensions noted in the plat layouts.","taxTitle","Planning and Zoning Meetings, La Vergne City, Rutherford County, Tennessee","taxId",69733,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6224348,"Commission defers decision on 314 Old Nashville Hwy. retail site plan after owner requests time to address demolition/timing issue",600,1364000,1964000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda&start=1364&end=1964","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda/thumbnail_1364000.jpg","/articles/6224348/Tennessee/Commission-defers-decision-on-314-Old-Nashville-Hwy-retail-site-plan-after-owner-requests-time-to-address-demolitiontiming-issue","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6224348-cecc11122f7b77f9c65775f734a6607e/orig.mp4?Expires=1771028688&Signature=TY1ntZRfrhT0lR8lFttfHUCSiOUpHVh8FrBi1saQz8oh62qAdnSL5ATDSmaARODkKii0USRvMPrhZ5mtdvliIboncCObBhZHhhccil3npE5UXzQ~fYXcBg98LxiFeiy1~ndnjrpNam1YmcsNJVdtYN3PDS5tsXRG01XjepWUs956KZsUpDUfRm-qSHM9~FO9yqC5ExwKNugRokyqvCRk8aZmH6epfdC4z4d5FSNPjpP8783KWc~lUuLjQdpxvHJHID7RaJUfXBvmBr0LpAq6swzlwO1mj08TwKg9rPFNxHIcLkJe8FiAVIBPXgMXTgEPkqY8Vnjk4iVfz8glJ8jK0Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Planning Commission voted to defer action for one month on the site plan for a retail project at 314 Old Nashville Highway after the property owner asked for additional time to resolve whether the existing residence on the commercially zoned lot must be removed before commercial construction.

Planning staff explained that the property is zoned C2 for commercial use and that the city ordinance does not allow commercial and residential uses to remain on the same parcel once commercial construction begins. \"Once a commercial lot...the residential use has to go away,\" staff said when summarizing the planning comments.

Applicant representatives said they had discussed a possible development agreement at the workshop that would allow a timed trigger for demolition (for example, requiring the residential improvements to be removed six to nine months after the first phase is completed). Property owner Amin Zakir addressed the commission and said the timing affects a bank loan and his family's ability to complete the project. \"I just I just need need some allowance, need some some mercy, you know,\" Zakir said.

After discussion, the mayor proposed deferring the item one month so the applicant and engineer could attempt to prepare a submittal that addresses the ordinance and financing constraints. The commission approved the deferral by voice vote; the applicants agreed to the one‑month deferral.

The deferral leaves open multiple options: the applicant may submit a development agreement or other mechanism that meets city legal requirements, submit revised plans that remove the residence before commercial construction begins, or withdraw and resubmit. City planning staff advised that, under current code as explained in the meeting, commercial construction would necessitate the removal of the residence unless the city attorney and planning staff approve a different mechanism.

The commission did not make a final determination on the site's zoning status or permit issuance at the meeting; the matter will return to the commission after the applicant's next submittal or the applicant may withdraw and resubmit.","The commission deferred action for one month on a mixed-use conversion and site plan at 314 Old Nashville Highway after the property owner and applicant asked more time to resolve whether the existing residence on the commercially zoned lot must be removed before commercial construction begins.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6224355,"Commission approves subdivision and site plans for Chase Bank and Starbucks at Floyd Mayfield and Murfreesboro; permits conditional on easements",298,679000,977000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda&start=679&end=977","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda/thumbnail_679000.jpg","/articles/6224355/Tennessee/Commission-approves-subdivision-and-site-plans-for-Chase-Bank-and-Starbucks-at-Floyd-Mayfield-and-Murfreesboro-permits-conditional-on-easements","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6224355-df73077e46c323fd7ff03831c8aebf28/orig.mp4?Expires=1771028688&Signature=nj8bHUexAIn-HYWOkNa4Wjoy1bApdCFmlTeWtEudNWI1YE2iF8L7SF6cxfZyRdn4RPuBRDY07G2eweC9fIaz57FcW9g-w4SyMAUzVhff4GfpeRixH5I3r7dv9VhFoZNXfvK-5Olor3W~YzB7SxlkUEXQ7L2~mmreDO-Cix4bwU0YVAj9bdFTLP028Vb9gOXbqrkyQz4X4V50gXrUlY5y8e4nsO7RQmUjIzJHM-duk1nGlsSxlvJzqddbP16R3KteWhQrgpIA9KuHrhVbc0xozdSVlwLCJAeJZsdO1D4ztPb2EcW-0uI0p4p-9xyHzaPvl~b8HGBaye~xEokIxrZEHQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The La Verne Planning Commission on May 20 approved a two‑lot final plat and site plans for a Chase Bank and a Starbucks at 101 Floyd Mayfield Drive after staff said outstanding utility easements must be secured before permits are issued.

Planning staff member Logan described the subdivision that will create two lots at the intersection of Floyd Mayfield Drive and Murfreesboro Road. \"This applicant is requesting site plan approval for a Chase Bank, and it would be constructed at the corner of Floyd Mayfield Drive and Murfreesboro Road,\" Logan said. The agenda packet showed the Chase Bank as a 3,333‑square‑foot building with an attached drive‑through and a separate lot for a Starbucks (about 2,500 square feet).

City utilities staff read a formal condition into the record: \"No permits will be issued by the city until those easements have been acquired, or they have changed their design to get utilities deployed Mayfield,\" the utilities representative said. Planning and utilities staff reiterated that water and sewer access must be secured via recorded easements to the north or the design must be revised to access adjacent public rights of way.

Representatives for the applicants acknowledged the condition. Nick Madonia, a site representative for the Chase Bank applicant, said: \"We're working with David and his group to make sure all that gets settled.\" David Abbey of Development and Management Group, the Starbucks applicant, likewise told the commission the team would \"work through that.\" Both applicants also confirmed they will construct sidewalks to the property line.

The site plans show shared access between the two lots, separate dumpster enclosures for each business, and landscape buffers that meet city standards. Planning staff noted the Chase Bank materials comply with the city's architectural overlay requirements and that parking exceeds city minimums. Staff also said the design reflects a TDOT requirement to remove an auxiliary lane on Murfreesboro Road as part of the construction.

Commissioners approved the final plat and both site plans by voice vote after motions to accept the items \"as submitted.\" The approvals carry the utilities condition noted above; city staff told the record that building permits will not be issued until easements providing water and sewer access are obtained or design alternatives are accepted by the city.

Next steps include recording the subdivision plat and the applicants resolving the easement and permitting items with city engineering and utilities staff before permit issuance.","The Planning Commission approved a two‑lot subdivision and site plans to accommodate a Chase Bank and a Starbucks at 101 Floyd Mayfield Drive, but city staff said no building permits will issue until required water/sewer easements are acquired or designs are revised.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6224358,"Planning Commission approves final plats for three new Arbor Ridge sections totaling 147 lots",584,72000,656000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda&start=72&end=656","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3551008-b08aa4136115a0eb16ae142a9b541dda/thumbnail_72000.jpg","/articles/6224358/Tennessee/Planning-Commission-approves-final-plats-for-three-new-Arbor-Ridge-sections-totaling-147-lots","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6224358-63e5cc20c7072ada4fbba9110ebb7064/orig.mp4?Expires=1771028688&Signature=E~KYuiMw7WSB5IaPDeyNxSotqX52Qr0amLp0uFs4GmA8sJF4Q3V71LdlZD8wqep4jSSj78Y2kSbJE94MyMJWKLA-5J1Jf-4Fu1jfcYyDFX07j59JWznIWrveBGnlMgmWzEoaB8zH56INPiuXX2gUbWpen-bi4MaigEKFn6dTOCuZSdUsAAP-sqMvijce4RowIv5UcJKqr08TZnF-GH2a5TKnENr041gOK9fxj~jtsbuEmpaPwtfNwYBuHSIVvZ5LWI45~rgm7hDTTds-sSfiZiYVIKCSF7KuYu3woPlpkOHsXP9DRuVjEZB9KRe5TGKehNk8Mh~qYDqR1~WRK4nOsw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The La Verne Planning Commission on May 20 approved final plats for three sections of the Arbor Ridge subdivision — Sections 9A, 9B and 12 — that together propose 147 residential lots on roughly 51.33 acres.

City planning staff presented the three plat requests during the meeting. \"This phase is proposing 44 new residential lots and, this is about 22.4 acres total,\" Planning staff member Logan said when introducing Section 9A. For Section 9B, Logan said the phase proposes 38 lots on 12.69 acres, and for Section 12 he described 65 lots on 16.23 acres and noted ongoing grading and earthwork near Walden Road.

The commission heard details about street layouts and emergency access. A representative for the Arbor Ridge developer confirmed that temporary turnarounds would be provided on Jasmine Way and Carnation Drive and that the hammerhead turnaround shown on the recorded sheet would be constructed to meet the city street standards. \"Yes, sir. There will be temporary turnarounds,\" the developer's representative said about the stub streets.

Staff reported that sidewalks are shown on both sides of all new streets and that outstanding departmental comments had been addressed. During the Section 9B discussion, staff and the applicant clarified that a hammerhead would be recorded and built consistent with the previously approved PDR (planned density residential) layout; the applicant said the hammerhead was included to avoid connecting a new road into an existing subdivision after neighbors objected during the PDR stage.

Commissioners moved and seconded motions to accept each final plat \"as submitted.\" Each motion carried by voice vote; no roll-call tallies were read into the record. The record shows unanimous vocal approval for each item.

The plats and staff reports note common-area tracts that are not buildable; otherwise staff said the newly platted lots are buildable. The project files list Brookfield Holdings Arbor LLC as the property owner and SEC Inc. as the applicant for the Arbor Ridge submittals.

Commissioners had no additional conditions beyond standard recording requirements and the construction of required street improvements and sidewalks. The approvals conclude the commission's role in plat review; subsequent permitting and inspections will be managed by city departments.

Looking ahead, the developer will record the plats and proceed with construction and lot sales according to the city's subdivision and street standards. The commission did not set additional deadlines or special conditions beyond the items described in staff reports and the recorded plats.","La Verne Planning Commission approved final plats for Arbor Ridge sections 9A, 9B and 12, adding 147 residential lots across about 51.33 acres; staff said sidewalks and other conditions were addressed and lots are buildable except for designated common areas.","actionData","errors"]
