Planned Development 204 for Multifamily and Commercial Subdivision on N. Cockrell Hill Road
DeSoto
Summary
A developer wants to replace 45 acres of single-family zoning with 166 townhomes, 344 apartments, and commercial space at the gateway corner of Cockrell Hill and Wintergreen. Neighbors packed the chamber worried about traffic on two-lane Wintergreen, sewer and water capacity, four-story buildings near established homes, and property values. The commission recommended denial, but the City Council gets the final say.
