Approve the development plan for up to 85 attached houses on individual lots and a peripheral setback reduction to 25 ft along the eastern property line as shown on the development plan, subject to 3 conditions.

Approve the requested variance to provide a turnaround other than a cul-de-sac at the end of Road A.
A. The particular surroundings of this site include a townhouse development to the south with a singular access point that is off of Pellissippi Parkway. The proposed development will be connected to Parkway Heights upon its completion to enable the Pellissippi Parkway access point to be closed. The turnaround would not be required after that fact and is only temporary.
B. The rezoning condition from case 12-F-23-RZ requires a right-of-way stub-out to Parkway Heights. The rezoning condition is unique to this site as a connection point would not normally be required. Since it is, the turnaround space is temporary and would not be required after the connection point is made.
C. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to public safety, health, or welfare because a turnaround which meets AASHTO standards for roads less than 150 ft has been provided. The road connection to the adjacent subdivision will result in safer access to the Parkway Heights community.

Approve the requested variance to reduce the vertical curve length from 300 ft to 240 ft, STA 1+0 Road "F" (K values from 25 to 20).
A. The steep topography along Bob Gray Road causes a deviation with the vertical curve.
B. The required access from Bob Gray Road causes the roadway to wind through steep topography.
C. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to public safety, health, or welfare because the shortened vertical curve meets AASHTO standards and still allows adequate sight distance.
