Planning commission approves rezoning and PUD for 120‑unit Crossing at Harrell Farms
Summary
The Morristown Regional Planning Commission approved rezoning Lot 3 of The Crossing at Harrell Farms from IB to R‑3 and a Planned Unit Development that would allow 120 multi‑family units across 30 quadplexes on a 10.3‑acre lot; staff cited surrounding zoning and access from Westowne Plaza.
The Morristown Regional Planning Commission voted to approve a rezoning and Planned Unit Development (PUD) for Lot 3 of The Crossing at Harrell Farms, clearing the way for a multi‑family townhouse development. Josh Cole, Senior Planner, presented the request and recommended approval, citing the parcel's proximity to W. Andrew Johnson Highway, existing surrounding zones and access from the recently constructed frontage at Westowne Plaza. The motion to approve was made by Vice‑Chairman Jack Kennerly and seconded by Commissioner Ventrus Norfolk; the minutes record a 9‑yes, 0‑no vote and state the motion carried.
The parcel is recorded in the minutes as 10.3 acres, with the submitted concept plan showing 120 units spread across 30 quadplexes and an overall density of 11.3 units per acre. Cole described the unit mix as two‑ and three‑bedroom townhouses and said all vehicle access would be from Westowne Plaza. The commission also approved the PUD/site‑plan requirement under the Morristown zoning code. The action will be forwarded to City Council as the next step, per the commission's routine referral process.
