438 Units Granted Nod By Commission

The City Planning Commission recommended approval Thursday night for two condo town house projects totaling 438 living units and valued at $87 million. One project faced protests from 25 nearby single family homeowners over devalued property and blocked alleys. The plan shifts from rental apartments to townhouses under planned unit development zoning. The other project in Charleston Heights proposes 278 units on 16 acres with a $5.5 million value. The commission also approved other residential developments and denied a professional office proposal at 1105 Franklin Ave, citing street frontage concerns.
