The Planning Commission had
recommended approval of this proposal with conditions.
There are two conditions clarified. The square footage
requirement for the fee simple town homes stated a
minimum of 2000 square feet of heated floor space, but
because of garages, two story and sloping ceilings in
foyers and great rooms we requested a minimum of 1400
square feet of heated floor to build the submitted
designs. The other condition was the 30% green space in
our single family residential developments which would
includes open space, buffers, and landscape areas
combined equaling more than 70% as submitted.
