The new proposal will require an amendment to the zoning for the property. The rezoning will require Collins to go before the Planning Commission and City Council for approval.
Proposed site plan including apartments to the bottom right and townhouses to the left
Collins’ current zoning allows for 385 multifamily dwellings which could either be apartments or condos. There are currently 12 condos constructed in the northeast corner of the site.
The new proposal calls for 318 total units of which 180 are to be apartments, 68 townhouses, and 70 condos (including the already constructed 12 condos).
Proposed townhouse design ideas
The new proposal calls for a pool and clubhouse for the townhouses and what appears to be a second pool and clubhouse for the apartments.
