Planning commission approves Farrington Phase 2 plats and reapproves Village Green final plat; votes unanimous
Summary
The Planning Commission unanimously approved final plats for Farrington Phase 2 and Phase 2b and reapproved the previously lapsed Village Green final plat (recording deadline lapsed). Staff conditions and questions about a retention pond and street name corrections were discussed.
The Town of Nolensville Planning Commission on Aug. 12 approved three subdivision‑related items on the consent and new‑business agenda: final plats for Farrington Phase 2 and Farrington Phase 2b, and a reapproval of the Village Green final plat after the 90‑day recording window lapsed. All actions passed unanimously.
Farrington Phase 2 final plat: Planning staff described the Phase 2 final plat as approximately 33.92 acres; staff said the phase is a portion of the larger 372‑acre Farrington development (formerly known as Goodall; the development was previously approved as Storyville). Staff said Phase 2 will create residential lots (staff presentation transcribed as "55, 59 residential lots") and five open‑space lots and dedicates about 7.7 acres of right of way. Staff recommended approval with conditions including correcting a street‑name error (Fly Road incorrectly labeled as Fly Lane in the plat materials). Commissioners approved the final plat with staff recommendations.
Farrington Phase 2b final plat: Staff said Phase 2b is approximately 7.81 acres (a portion of the 372‑acre overall development), and the final plat calls for 28 residential lots, 2 commercial lots, and 4 open‑space lots; it dedicates about 2.5 acres of right of way. The commission approved Phase 2b with staff comments.
Village Green final plat reapproval: Staff explained county recording rules require final plats to be recorded within 90 days of approval, and Village Green’s recording deadline lapsed. The applicant requested reapproval of the previously approved final plat; staff recommended approval. Commissioners asked about a detention/retention pond behind the Publix site; staff said that lot (identified in discussion as Lot 3) was intended to be dedicated or transferred to the town and that the temporary construction detention areas would be graded and landscaped per the development and landscaping plans before final ownership. Commissioners amended the motion to include staff comments and reapproved the Village Green final plat.
Votes at a glance: - Farrington Phase 2 final plat (approx. 33.92 acres; staff recommended conditions including street name correction): Approved unanimously by voice vote. - Farrington Phase 2b final plat (approx. 7.81 acres; 28 residential lots; 2 commercial lots; 4 open‑space lots; staff recommended conditions): Approved unanimously by voice vote. - Village Green final plat reapproval (requested after 90‑day recording window lapsed): Approved unanimously, amended to include staff comments. Staff noted a remediation/dedication condition for a retention/detention area and that final grading/landscaping would be addressed in construction documents.
Applicant attendance: Planning staff noted the applicant was not present for the Farrington items and the Village Green hearing; the commission proceeded based on staff recommendation.
Ending: Staff will ensure the plat corrections noted by the commission (street‑name fix and any final dedication documents) are completed during recordation and construction permitting.
