Creekside Custom Homes seeks future land use amendment for 46-home subdivision in Conway
Summary
Creekside Custom Homes proposed a future land use amendment and rezoning for roughly 7.70 acres to allow 46 single-family homes on Highway 19 in Conway; applicant and staff discussed buffers, lot size, wetlands and traffic thresholds; the commission continued the item for engineering follow-up.
Staff described a request to amend future land use designations and rezone approximately 7.70 acres from AG2 to MRD1 to allow 46 single-family homes along Highway 19 in Conway.
Staff noted the proposal calls for 10,000-square-foot minimum lots, a gross density cited at about 0.66 units per acre and a net density near 1.45 units per acre, perimeter buffers and one wetland crossing estimated at less than 0.1 acre. The applicant said the MRD option was reconsidered because large required buffers would eliminate building area and instead proposed MRD1 with voluntary 50-foot buffers to screen development; the applicant described the plan as "46, 10,000 square foot lots" and characterized the design as relatively low-impact.
Commissioners asked questions about setbacks, wetlands and traffic thresholds. The applicant and staff said final yield and engineering — including stormwater and potential Army Corps of Engineers permitting for the small wetland impact — will determine the project’s final configuration; the commission continued the matter to the next meeting for additional engineering details.
