Christopher Carley distributed booklets to members of the PIan
Commission. The contents were: color photographs of models of the
proposed buildings; alternate proposals to the preliminary site plans;
a letter from the Metro Transportation Group addressing the recommended
office use parking ratios; development charts illustrating open space
calculations; and a copy of the preliminary site plan.
Carley reiterated Crow-Chasewood's position that their mixed
use, low density (12.7 units/acre versus 20 units/acre permitted in
A-2) quality development would be a plus for the community. He
explained that in keeping residential density low, they need O-T and
B-2 uses to make the economics of the development work. The variations
would, according to Carley, allow a more attractive product line and
development.
Bruce White explained the open space calculations on charts
for a hypothetical 10 acre site. The developer has requested a
variation to allow a 10 foot envelope rather than a 30 foot envelope
• in order to allow small clustered buildings versus larger, taller
buildings or buildings more spread out. Leah Cummins challenged
the philosophy that fewer, taller buildings are more aesthetically
pleasing than more, smaller buildings.
