The City Planning and Zoning commission granted approval Monday for a minor general plan amendment and the rezoning of 16.1 acres for a multi-family townhome development.
The action was an initial step in the process of developing the 318-unit Villas at Stonegate project at the southeast corner of Stonegate Road and Alan Stephens Parkway, just west of A+ Charter School. The development would be a mix of two- and three-bedroom homes.
The property was rezoned High Density Residential from Light Industry & Warehouse. The vacant land has not been previously developed. The development is being proposed at a density of 19.75 dwelling units per acre and would be home to more than 1,000 residents based on the city’s figure of 3.2 residents per home.
