The Petitioner requests consideration to rezone 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.
