2026-10-19 - City Council

Bill 2026-041 passed on roll call, with one member voting no. The first phase is 55 lots with 21 acres of open space, on Leeds Drive and Goldammer Court south of Covington Gardens off Rock Ridge Road; later phases would add about 85 lots for 140 in total. The preliminary plan was approved in March 2026 and Planning and Zoning passed the final plat 6-0 on September 10. Parking would be allowed on one side of the street only, opposite the fire hydrants, because of driveway layout on 28-foot streets in a 50-foot right-of-way. Several council members worried residents would park on both sides anyway and constrict emergency access; others said one-side parking is safer than the crowding seen in the developer's other subdivisions.
