A slightly
revised plan to add 127.5 acres to the Whitewater Creek community will
be presented to the Fayette County Planning Commission Thursday.
Plans for the
addition have been scaled down from 63 homes to 60. Members of the Whitewater
Creek Homeowners Association recently voted their support of the addition.
Clayton Gilley
of Cypress Development and Becky Moore of Integrated Science and Engineering
presented tentative plans last month to get commissioners' reaction before
firming up the plans.
Planning Commission
members didn't have a problem with adding to the community, but suggested
not only scaling back the plan but also varying the sizes of lots.
Under the plan,
about 50 acres would be devoted to green space and flood plain, but as
originally drawn, it wasn't fully in keeping with the concept envisioned
Unit Development.
Gilley and
Moore presented plans showing the homes arranged like most subdivisions,
but surrounded by green space. Plans included adding the acreage to Whitewater
Creek's existing PUD. The PUD designation allows developers to build on
smaller individual lots but requires them to show creativity in designing
neighborhoods that make use of green space, amenities and varied lot sizes.
Plans also
are for homeowners in the new section to be members of the Whitewater
Creek Country Club.
Commission
member Jim Graw said the developers should reduce the number of homes
and vary the lot sizes, and possibly include a recreation area devoted
to the new area.
The commission
will meet at 7 p.m. Thursday at the County Administrative Complex, 140
Stonewall Ave., Fayetteville. The public is invited and public comment
will be accepted on all rezoning proposals.
In addition
to the Whitewater request, on the agenda will be:
Mukut Gupta's
request for a change from A-R, which requires five-acre building lots,
to R-72, which requires two-acre lots, for 40.5 acres on Old Senoia Road.
Gupta plans
to build 18 homes.
A request
from 3D Properties to rezone 8.1 acres on Ga. Highway 54 west from A-R
to O-I (office-institutional) to allow a medical office.
Lynn Fedor's
request for O-I zoning on three quarters of an acre on Hwy. 54 east at
Plantation Drive. Fedor hopes to develop an insurance/financial planning
office.
