Inverness subdivision
plan to be studied by PTC Planning Commission Monday
MUNFORD
The latest
concept plan for the new Inverness subdivision for John Wieland Homes
on the west side of Peachtree City will be reviewed by the Peachtree City
Planning Commission at its meeting Monday night.
The plan has
changed "quite a bit" from its original design, said City Planner
David Rast. It now includes more open space for small park-type areas
and a very nice amenity center for residents of the subdivision.
To gain the
open space the plan had to be re-designed to include 110 townhomes. That
required the City Council to lift its moratorium on multi-family housing,
which it did at its last meeting.
In September,
council approved a plan to have no more than 350 homes on the 101 acres
inside the city and an additional 80 acres adjacent to the property that
are in unincorporated Fayette County.
Simultaneously,
council agreed to rezone the property from general industrial to general
residential despite a recommendation to deny the rezoning from the planning
commission.
The townhomes
cover approximately a third of the proposed subdivision, according to
Dan Fields of John Wieland Homes.
Fields agreed
to design covenants that would strictly limit the townhomes from become
rental properties. John Wieland Homes hopes to have the first homes occupied
in the spring of 2002.
