21-0756 — Residential (1,594 dwelling units), Commercial (1,655,000 SF), and Hotel (350 keys) in Franklin, TN
This is a revision to the Ovation PUD Development Plan (Revision 3) involving updates to internal roadway design, building placement, distribution of uses, and building heights on a 104-acre mixed-use development. No entitlement changes or rezoning is required; the parking structure along Carothers Parkway is now screened by a building, eliminating a prior Modification of Standards request. The uses remain residential, commercial, and hotel, maintaining alignment with Envision Franklin and zoning requirements.
