Nolensville approves Town Square revision that cuts units, removes parking deck
Summary
The Planning Commission approved a revision to the Nolensville Town Square plan that removes a 273‑unit apartment building and parking deck, replacing them with lower‑density townhomes and mixed‑use buildings and reducing total units from 404 to 205.
The Planning Commission approved Revision 1 to the Nolensville Town Square site development plan, a substantial change that eliminates an approved 273‑unit apartment building and associated parking deck and replaces that area with a mix of townhomes and mixed‑use buildings with surface parking.
Staff said the revision affects phases 1–3 and reduces the total number of units in the project from 404 to 205. Trey Rodford, identifying himself as representing the NTS developer, explained the change and answered commissioner questions about topography, massing and parking. Commissioners discussed visibility of three‑story townhomes from Nolensville Road and asked whether three‑story units were truly three stories on both sides of the building; Rodford and his project manager explained that, in some locations, the design appears as a three‑story building from one side and two‑story from the other because of the site's slope.
Several commissioners asked about the effect on parking after the removal of the garage. Rodford said the project team completed parking calculations and that the lower unit count helps meet parking requirements; he said commercial and residential parking needs were evaluated and staff confirmed standards would be met.
The commission voted unanimously to approve the site development plan revision with staff recommendations.
What happens next: With the revision approved, the applicant can proceed with permitting under the revised site plan and the town will enforce conditions in the staff report. If the applicant later wishes to change PD entitlements (such as tree canopy percentages), that would require a formal amendment to the PD and additional approvals.
