Ashley Circle development agreement would cap project at 43 homes; applicant says cemetery access preserved
Summary
A development agreement tied to an Ashley Circle rezoning would cap the project at 43 single-family homes and 35-foot heights; staff noted a cemetery on the site and the applicant said the graveyard is not part of this phase and easements will be relocated to preserve access.
Staff presented a rezoning request for 33.69 acres on Ashley Circle and said there is a cemetery on the site, though the portion proposed for rezoning does not contain wetlands. The development agreement accompanying the request would cap the project at 43 single-family detached homes and limit home heights to 35 feet. The applicant said the agreement primarily exists to limit density and described prior drainage concerns the parties worked through with USDA assistance.
The applicant also addressed community concern about the cemetery, stating, "The graveyard is not part of this phase of development, so there's no intent to disturb that. The easement that gets to the graveyard will be relocated as part of this development. Nothing will compromise their access there." The applicant told the commission they expect some opposition at the public hearing next week. No final action was taken at the workshop.
