Plans for a
53-home subdivision on 20 acres just south of downtown
Fayetteville will sink or swim Tuesday.
Fayetteville
City Council will vote on zoning for Charles and Mary
Alice Odom's proposed Apple Orchard subdivision at 7 p.m.
at City Hall. The site of the proposed development is the
southeast corner of Grady Avenue and Beauregard
Boulevard.
Council
meetings usually are conducted on Mondays, but this
week's meeting has been moved to Tuesday because of Labor
Day.
Last
Wednesday, Dan Odom, son of the petitioners, and Becky
Morris of Integrated Science and Engineers spread plans
for the subdivision on the hood of a black Chevrolet
pickup truck and scratched out revisions following a work
session in which council members expressed new objections
to the subdivision plan.
The Odoms
proposed 100 homes for the neighborhood last year, and
withdrew the petition after Planning Commission and
council members objected to the density. The new plan has
faced similar objections, and the family has made
revisions prior to each meeting of commission and
council.
City staff
has recommended that approval of the subdivision be
conditioned on reducing the number of lots still further,
to 50, and having two entrances on Beauregard, one across
from Medford Drive and one across from Bates Avenue.
Also on the
agenda Tuesday, council will consider Jeff Landrum's
request for office and institutional zoning for .67 acres
on Ga. Highway 54 east of town.
