Commission grants conceptual approval for two‑story proposal on East Crockett, asks for revised drawings
Summary
The commission granted conceptual approval for a two‑story multifamily project in the Woody Hill historic district but asked the applicant to return with revised porch, fenestration and materials details after a voicemail from a neighborhood group opposed staff recommendations.
The commission granted conceptual approval for a two‑story multifamily proposal on East Crockett in the Woody Hill historic district while directing the applicant to return with refined design details.
Staff recommended approval with conditions requiring materials that match new‑construction guidelines, revised porch and column designs, adjusted fenestration and a landscaping plan. A voicemail from Lourdes de Francois, representing Unity with Hill, opposed the staff recommendation and requested that the applicant provide new drawings addressing several design concerns before full approval.
Commissioners acknowledged the project as part of a pilot program intended to surface design and placement issues in future development; they approved conceptual acceptance with staff and HDRC stipulations and asked the applicant to present revised drawings to the design review committee (DRC) for follow‑up.
