Commissioners table Revive Land Group’s Kegel Road residential rezoning for further right-of-way review
Summary
A proposed residential-mixed rezoning for about 101.57 acres on Kegel Road from Revive Land Group LLC was tabled to allow commissioners to review traffic and right-of-way implications; the applicant described a mixed product of single-family lots and townhomes and proffered on-street parking and amenities.
The Hall County Board of Commissioners on March 27 tabled a rezoning request from Revive Land Group LLC for a 101.57-acre site on Kegel Road to a future meeting so the commission could examine road and right-of-way issues.
Applicant presentation and discrepancy in lot counts: The applicant, Neville Allison, presented a proposal described in the record with differing lot counts: county staff summarized the request as a 248-lot residential development in the agenda summary, while the applicant described the project to commissioners as a 262-lot subdivision with 207 single-family detached homes and 55 townhomes and an amenity package. The applicant said the project adopts the county's recently updated Unified Development Code (RX category) and produces a mix of housing types intended to be lower-density than the maximum allowed by the comprehensive plan in that corridor.
Project features: The applicant said the plan includes 207 single-family lots with varied widths (including 54 lots wider than 50 feet) and 55 two-story townhomes, resort-style amenities including a pool, clubhouse and dog park, and about 51 on-street parking spaces added at stakeholders' request. The presentation emphasized market need for additional attainable housing and said the developer had incorporated planning and engineering input.
Why commissioners tabled it: After the presentation a commissioner said they had concerns about road impacts and right-of-way and moved to table the item to a later meeting (April 22) so the commission could discuss right-of-way needs and other traffic-management concerns. The item was tabled to April 22 for further review.
Next steps: The applicant and county staff will continue to work on traffic and right-of-way questions and the item will return for further consideration on April 22.
