Description

The Petitioner requests an amendment of the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) from ‘Residential Suburban Single-Family’ to ‘Planned Development’ for portions of two parcels already designated predominantly for Planned Development use. The request includes portions of land totaling approximately 7 acres out of 159 acres proposed for development.

 

This petition is filed concurrently with requests to annex and to rezone (25-001312-ZA) the subject properties from Residential Agriculture (R-A) under the Chatham County Zoning Ordinance to a Planned Development (PD) designation within the City of Savannah. Proposed is an approximately 159-acre mixed-use residential and neighborhood-scale commercial development. Upon completion, the project would see the construction of up to 1,665 dwelling units with up to 50,000 square feet of commercial floor area.

 

Recommendation

On April 22, 2025, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the requested Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment from ‘Residential Suburban Single-family’ to ‘Planned Development’ for the identified portions of the subject properties.
