Litchford, City Attorney Ordinance No. 1251 Page 2 of 2 529 FRAWLEY ROAD REZONING NARRATIVE The applicant seeks to down zone the above property from RT-1 to RZ-1 to build single- family homes in lieu of building the approved townhomes. The site was zoned originally to be a compliment to Garland Estates I with single level townhomes on a private gated drive. The number of units shown on the original rezone was 77 single story townhomes. Subsequentially it was requested through preliminary plat to build 108 two-story townhomes. The preliminary plat was approved along with the 109 sewer taps to accommodate a potential clubhouse and 108 homes. The changes in the current market has now made it more attractive to return to building detached single-family homes. This request will be for a down zone to single-family and a reduction in the total number of units from 108 to the proposed 77 lots shown. The lots will be accessed from public right of way and have public utilities. The basic site layout remains essentially the same with the townhome buildings being swapped out for lots. The request will propose a condition that no building will be within 25’ of the peripheral boundary on all sides. With the peripheral buffer it is also requested that two variances be approved to bring the development in line with similar zoning in the Chattanooga region. 2026-0083 Rezoning from RT-1 to RZ-1 2026-0083 Rezoning from RT-1 to RZ-1 Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CASE NUMBER: 2026-0083 APPLICANT: Joseph Ingram with Ingram, PROPERTY OWNER: Bent Tree Gore and Associates Development PROPERTY ADDRESS: 529 Frawley Rd TAX MAP PARCEL ID: 170G-A-006.02 JURISDICTION: East Ridge SIZE OF PROPERTY: 25.81 acres REQUEST: Rezone from RT-1 Residential Townhouse District to RZ-1 Zero Lot Line Residential District to build single-unit detached residential structures.

To construct detached single-unit residential structures. No compatibility challenges were identified. 1. This rezoning request proposes a reduction in density, which would lead to fewer dwelling units per acre. The current zoning designation of RT-1 and proposed 108 units, resulting in a density of 4.04 dwelling units per acre (du/ac). If the request to change the zoning to RZ-1 is approved, the density would decrease to 2.98 du/ac, equating to 77 lots. (-31 lots) Adjacent density to the north is 1.82 du/ac, and to the south is 4.22 du/ac. 2. The reduction in dwelling units per acre and other general guidelines correspond with Resolution 3517, which outlines guiding principles for the City Council's review of a rezoning request. 3. The city council recently amended the RT-1 residential townhouse-zoned district through Ordinance 1200. This amendment stipulates that an RT-1 district must be bordered on at least one side by a C-1, C-2, R-2, or R-3 zoning district. This change facilitates better transitional zoning for high-density uses. Currently, the parcel of land does not border any of the aforementioned zoning districts. If it were designated as RZ- 1, it would then eliminate the RT-1 non-compatibility with bordering zoning districts per ordinance 1200. 4. No concerns about nuisances have been identified. The surrounding area features a mix of suburban residential development. To the north, there are single-unit detached homes within a residential district, while to the south, there are townhouse-style attached units. To the west of the property is undeveloped land that lies within the floodway, and to the east, across Frawley Road, there are more single-unit detached residences. The request to establish a residential district for single-unit detached homes is compatible with the existing development in the area. • The preliminary plat for the townhome development has been approved by the Planning Commission. The only modification to be made is an increase in the lot sizes, which will now be larger than those previously approved under the RT-1 zoning requirements. The infrastructure will remain unchanged.
