Planning commission approval clears 10-acre workforce housing and Habitat homes; commissioners flag sewer and drainage details
Summary
Board members reported planning commission approval for a 10-acre TNH Investments development with 34 workforce units, a 50-child daycare and six Habitat homes; commissioners raised drainage, sewer extension and easement review and discussed reallocation of $850,000 in REDI funds.
Unidentified Speaker 4, a board member, said the planning commission approved a 10-acre project by TNH Investments that will include 34 apartments/townhomes and a separate daycare building designed for about 50 children; the developer plans six Habitat homes on the south portion after completing the apartments and daycare. "Theyre going to put in a workforce development housing," Speaker 4 said.
Board members emphasized drainage and sewer coordination: Speaker 3 said the county had approved an outlet to a ditch for the Habitat portion but would require reapproval if the drainage outlet location changes. Speaker 4 said engineering review remains pending (Bob Strader and Troy Swan were named as reviewers) and cautioned that project changes may require the developers to return for additional approvals.
Financial details mentioned included previously allocated REDI funds of about $850,000 that had been reallocated after planning commission actions. Speaker 4 also said the county planned meetings with 4 Star and United Engineering to discuss extending sewers to serve the development and intended to allocate roughly $1.2Mto1.5M for the water project to avoid returning funds.
Next steps: staff will continue engineering reviews, confirm drainage/outlet locations before final approvals, and coordinate sewer extension plans with 4 Star and United Engineering.
