Corinth council approves Saddle Brook plan development with brick-accent and buffer conditions

The City of Corinth City Council approved a rezoning and plan development for Saddle Brook, a proposed 97‑lot subdivision at 1960 Post Oak Drive, adopting conditions that 30 percent of homes must include brick accents and that a 15‑foot green buffer be extended, council members said.

The approval implements a planned development with a base SF‑4 single‑family zoning on about 17 acres and directs staff to prepare an ordinance for adoption at a future meeting. Planning and Zoning Director Melissa Daley recommended approval, saying the proposal is consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan and would include public infrastructure improvements that the applicant will construct.

Why it matters: Saddle Brook would add a mix of 30‑ and 45‑foot lots, roughly 25 percent open space and a tree‑preservation target above typical submittals; the developer also committed to building a segment of Creekside Drive identified in the city’s Master Thoroughfare Plan, a public cost the developer said it would fund under the project’s current layout.
