Springside Road rezoning: staff says site plan largely unchanged; neighborhood talks ongoing
Summary
A conditional-zoning application to allow 36 single-family detached homes off Springside Road received a favorable Planning and Zoning recommendation; staff said the current site plan showed only minor modifications since the commission review and neighborhood and developer talks are continuing.
City planning staff told the council Thursday that a conditional-zoning application for property off Springside Road in South Asheville would allow 36 single-family detached homes and make technical modifications to lot dimensions and setbacks to increase density.
"The most recent version of the site plan ... was modified pretty minimally from the Planning and Zoning Commission review," Will Palmquist, planning staff, said. Commission conditions included adding a crosswalk across Springside Road (details to be determined later) and upsizing stormwater detention to handle the 10- to 25-year storm events.
Council members said neighborhood and applicant meetings are continuing and that some council members have met with neighbors and the project team. Palmquist said the applicant is still working with the neighborhood on plan adjustments and that no formal revised submission had been made as of the briefing.
Council member Esther Manheimer and others noted the Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation in favor of the project. No vote or formal decision was made in the briefing; the public hearing and final council action were scheduled for the Aug. 26 meeting.
