Appearance Review Board adopts amendment to Briley Farm Phase 1 that adds Lot 12 and increases allowable lots to 55

The Appearance Review Board voted to adopt Ordinance 20 26 0 4 on June 2, 2026, approving an amendment to the Briley Farm Phase 1 planned development that brings 302 Briley Ave (identified in the record as Lot 12) into the PD and allows Lots 10 and 12 to be split into three parcels, increasing the total allowable single-family lots from 53 to 55.

Planning staff recommended the change. "Based on our review, staff recommends that the appearance review board recommend approval of ordinance number 20 26 0 4 to amend the Briley Farm Phase 1 PD, and the development agreement to bring in 302 Briley Ave into the planned development and allow for a new total of 55 single family lots," said a planning staff member who identified themselves in the record as Michael Blood. The presentation noted the Phase 1 property totals approximately 36 acres, lies within a traditional neighborhood design district, and that the proposed three-lot configuration meets the minimum lot size requirements under the district standards.

Board members asked several procedural and design questions before the vote. One member sought assurance that proposed Lot D would meet design standards and heard that the new lots would be subject to the PD's lot-size standards, streetscape guidelines and applicable impact fees. A representative of the applicant, who identified himself as Bobby Johnson of Gemini Land Development, confirmed that water and sewer connection capacity is adequate and that the developer will bring any subsequent subdivision or builder assignments through the town's separate approval processes.

A board member moved to adopt the ordinance; the motion was seconded and the chair announced the motion passed. The meeting adjourned at 6:41 p.m.
