Fairhope, Alabama
CALLED FAIRHOPE COMMONS
The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously approved the 62 unit single-story townhome development proposed by Trey Jinright of Jade Consulting Inc. for a 10 acre site on the south side of Gayfer Rd. roughly southeast from the Arbor Gates apartments.
The plan will only use 7 acres of the site and the existing natural storm water retention pond ("Grady" pond) will be supplemented by 10 bio-retention ponds around the site's perimeter to catch runoff. Jinright said the ponds should actually reduce runoff from the site from current levels.
The entrance will be on Gayfer, but the county must issue a "turnout permit" for it -- since some of the project is not within city limits.
Upon request of neighbors, it was decided to install a hedge between the development and the Rosa Acres subdivision, rather than a wooden fence as originally proposed.
A sidewalk is to be constructed along the south side of Gayfer as well.
