Ms. Green stated that it appeared the changes are within the spirit of the conditions of approval
but needed the Planning Commission to determine if they are in fact consistent with the motion.
She asked for the Planning Commission to opine upon the request if it meets the conditions for
approval. If this approach is acceptable to the Planning Commission, staff would work with the
applicant to revise their pattern book to include the conditions of approval recommended by the
Planning Commission prior to the City Council public hearing.
Mr. Kevin Guenther, Mr. Matt Taylor, and Mr. Walt O’Shea were present for the meeting
representing the application. Mr. Matt Taylor stated that in Area 7 they would continue with their
commitment for the office use for the first three years. If the office use is not accomplished after
three years, then a maximum of 100 single-family attached townhomes would be developed. In
addition, they would be keeping the same commitment not to sell the townhomes to a rental
company. The Planning Commission discussed the changes and agreed the proposal was in the
spirit of their approval, decreasing from 890 total units to 620 units with the number of rental units
decreasing from 600 to 300.

PLANNING COMMISSION

this item, a copy which is maintained in the permanent files of the Planning Department and is
incorporated into these Minutes by reference. Ms. Green made known this proposal would be in
two phases within a six-month timeline. In addition, the plans do not meet City standards.
The Planning Commission discussed the proposed parking lot modifications. A portion of this
property is in the Gateway District Overlay with frontage along Northwest Broad Street. They
expressed their concerns about this site with the following:
City Building & Codes Department has been involved with the owner regarding
substandard conditions for a portion of the building that had caught on fire several months
ago. That portion of the building is still boarded up.
This would be a good opportunity for the owner to make improvements to this site being
located in the GDO.
The damaged building should be repaired before site improvements are made to the parking
lot.
Phase 1 landscaping plan should be completed first along Medical Center Parkway and the
front of the building. If the building is not repaired to the satisfaction of the Building and
Codes Department, the applicant would not be able to obtain a permit for the 10 additional
parking spaces.
Defer the site plan until the June 2, 2021, night meeting so the applicant would be able to
attend the meeting.
Mr. Bill Huddleston spoke briefly about the project.
There being no further discussion, Mr. Rick LaLance moved to defer until the June 2, 2021
meeting, contingent on the applicant being able to attend the meeting. If the applicant would not
be able to attend the meeting, it would be deferred until June 16, 2021. The motion was seconded
by Vice-Chairman Ken Halliburton and carried by the following vote:

Fortress Square [2021-2025] final plat for 2 lots on 5.8 acres zoned CH & GDO-1 located
along Fortress Boulevard and John R Rice Boulevard, Beaty Properties, LLC Inc.
developer. Ms. Margaret Ann Green presented the Staff Comments regarding this item, a copy
which is maintained in the permanent files of the Planning Department and is incorporated into
these Minutes by reference.
Mr. Matt Taylor distributed a Letter, exhibits from the Master Plan, a Site Plan, and a Landscape
Plan to the Planning Commission to request the Commission’s consideration of a variance. If
ultimately approved by the Board of Zoning Appeals, it would allow the required 8-foot planting
yard and 15-feet required between the access drive and property line along the new boundary to
be waived. They are trying to mitigate any effects the variances may have by committing to place
the required landscape plantings in the nearest planting areas on the south side of the drive aisle
when the site to the south develops. All other areas have previously been planted with the required
trees.
He explained that the drive aisle had been placed in its current location due to the necessity to
align with the drive aisle on the west side of Fortress Boulevard when this project was planned.
The width of the shared drive aisle was dictated by the City Transportation Staff to facilitate turns
into and out of the site. If the property line were forced to be south of the access drive it could
create a hardship on the remaining land by making it so narrow it becomes impractical to use.
The remaining land would be approximately 75-105 feet wide before removing landscape yards.

reasonable.

plat subject to all staff comments; the motion was seconded by Mr. Shawn Wright and carried by
the following vote:

of the buildings. In addition, he would work with staff on a modern six-foot privacy fence located
at the back of each Villa.
Continuing, Mr. Burns explained they would have a private hauler for solid waste. Each Villa
would have their own private carts. This site plan does not have Dumpsters; however, they would
include a Dumpster pad in case it would be needed in the future. Ms. Rush commented there
were questions as to how the solid waste was going to be managed. She made known there needs
to be more information regarding where the private carts would be stored and how solid waste
would be managed each week.
Chair Jones stated that the applicant needs to provide a dedicated space for the private carts for
storage when solid waste is picked up each week. She recommended more information to be
provided to explain solid waste management.
There being no further discussion, Vice-Chairman Ken Halliburton moved to approve the site plan
subject to all staff comments; and, for the applicant to continue working with Ms. Rush on

been trash on this property. The applicant is prepared to add additional Dumpsters throughout
their site.
Continuing, Ms. Smyth stated that Staff was supportive of this rezoning request for the following
reasons so long as Staff Comments are incorporated into the pattern book, because the proposed
reconfiguration and renovations would allow reinvestment into an existing complex in disrepair
and would bring onsite management that would promote the creation of a safe and desirable living
environment for residential areas characterized by a unified site and development program.
Mr. Brick Murfree and Mr. Christopher Mouron were in attendance representing the application
and spoke briefly about the project. Mr. Mouron described the proposal from the Pattern Book,

convert this failed student housing complex into a vibrant, fully upgraded, conventional

from one of their developments to send to Ms. Smyth for her to share.
