03-2025 — Conservation overlay adjustment to align HHO boundaries with revised Conservation Design Concept in Franklin, TN
This case involves revising the Hillside Hillcrest Overlay (HHO) district boundaries on a 202.60-acre Estate Residential property to align with an approved Envision Franklin Conservation Design Concept amendment, though the applicant omitted approximately 1.4 acres of protected area that the Planning Commission previously determined should be preserved. Staff recommends denial because the proposal does not fully implement the conservation boundaries established in the September 2025 Plan Amendment, particularly regarding protection of existing tree buffers and stone walls adjacent to residential properties on Ash Drive.
