Staff summary and rationale
Planning staff said the site had not been completed or stabilized as required by the approved plans. The developer’s bank notified the city that it would not renew the letter of credit. Staff recommended calling the letter of credit so the city could use the funds to complete stabilization work and prevent runoff onto adjacent properties.

Key specifics
- Surety amount: $451,089.12 (staff reported the letter of credit value in the meeting).
- Scope of corrective work: staff indicated work would include stabilization and minor grading to control runoff and address temporary sediment leaving the lot; staff had obtained preliminary quotes to include work to remedy impacts to adjacent properties.

Motion and outcome
Motion: instruct staff to call the surety. Motion made by Commissioner Pereira; seconded (second recorded). All those in favor said aye; the commission approved the action.

What happens next
Staff will issue the notice to call the letter of credit and use the site surety to stabilize the property and address any affected adjacent properties; the city will solicit quotes and proceed under its established surety procedures.

The applicant requested the deferral to continue negotiations about a planned connection to the adjacent hospital property and to refine conditions.

The proposal covers about 83 acres annexed into the city and requests multiple zoning districts (planned general commercial/PGC, mixed-use/MU and residential PRD) and a mix of uses including retail/office fronting Station Camp, a 300-unit apartment complex, townhomes, a senior living facility (which could include assisted living), medical offices adjacent to the hospital, and open space with pickleball courts under an existing TVA easement. Staff summarized net residential density for the residential areas at about 9.53 units per acre (excluding PGC and half the mapped flood plain).

Why it matters: Commissioners focused on a proposed signalized connection through property adjacent to High Point Health Systems. Several commissioners said the plan would not function without that connection and recommended any approval contain binding timing or construction requirements. Staff and the applicant agreed the PMDP conditions could be refined; the applicant asked the commission to allow time to continue negotiations with the hospital’s real-estate team.

Key technical and policy points discussed
- Height and materials exceptions: The applicant sought height exceptions (55 feet for PGC/medical office and 50 feet for multi-family/senior living; typical zoning limits are 35–40 feet) and exceptions for façade materials in some residential areas that would later be evaluated at the final master plan stage.
- Access to hospital property: The applicant and staff said the project’s viability depended on obtaining property or an easement from High Point Health Systems to create the second primary access. Commissioners debated whether zoning should be approved before that access is secured and whether the PMDP should require the road to be built in phase 1.
- Flooding and Lower Station Camp Road: Commissioners raised repeated concerns about Lower Station Camp Road’s frequent flooding; some members argued a connection could provide an alternate route if flooding occurs, while others cautioned against direct access into a flood-prone corridor.
- Entitlements and PMDP term: Staff noted a PMDP is valid for three years; commissioners discussed long-term risks of rezoning before access agreements are finalized and ways to structure conditions so the plan cannot be executed unless key access conditions are satisfied.

Motion and outcome
The applicant requested deferral; motion to grant the applicant’s request to defer the Station Camp Master Development Plan was made by Chair Harris and seconded by Commissioner Albert. Vote: approved (ayes recorded; no opposing votes noted).

What’s next
The applicant (represented at the meeting) said it would continue working with city engineering and the hospital’s real-estate staff and return with clarified conditions related to timing and construction of the hospital connection. Staff advised that if the connection cannot be secured the applicant would need to return with an amended PMDP; commissioners flagged that they would expect the access to be built with phase 1 if it is a condition of approval.

The amendment under review adds a dry-storage building and a mixed-use hotel/condo/restaurant building to previously approved marina plans. Planning staff reported the dry-storage building would contain 200 covered slips and the mixed-use building’s preliminary layout showed about 10 hotel rooms, 20 condominiums and roughly 5,000 square feet of commercial space (about 3,500 square feet of that proposed as a restaurant and roughly 1,600 square feet as retail). Staff noted the applicant requested height exceptions and alternative building materials; staff recommended the change be treated as a major amendment and included conditions requiring masonry (brick/stone) facades that match existing nearby buildings.

Why it matters: Neighbors said the scale and commercial character of the revised plan conflict with Foxland and Fairview’s predominantly residential character. Speakers raised traffic safety on Douglas Bend Road, concerns about parking and trailer storage, shoreline and water-safety effects, and the adequacy and impartiality of prior studies. Planning commissioners said they needed more time and more detail on architecture, traffic mitigation and access before making a recommendation to the city council.

Details of community objections and developer response
- Multiple residents said the revised plan represents a substantial change from earlier presentations and urged the commission to treat it as a \"major\" change rather than a minor amendment. Public speakers included Nick Meder (1443 Boardwalk Place), Robert Shellis (1231 Orton Circle), Mike Schulte (1489 Boardwalk Place), John Gardner (1145 McCroy Circle), David Shearer (Albatross Way), Barry Gray (original investor), Chandra Waller (Albatross Way), Edwin Mims (905 Ramsey Drive) and Lois Strong (end of Foxland Boulevard). Many warned that Douglas Bend Road is narrow and already congested, and that adding hotel, restaurants and a large marina would worsen public-safety and traffic access for emergency vehicles.
- Friends of Old Hickory Lake, represented by attorney Tom Lee, submitted formal objections and asked the commission to treat the amendment as a major revision because of height exceptions, material waivers and other departures from the existing Foxland master plan. Lee also recommended the resolution language be revised to reflect the staff recommendation that the change is a major amendment.
- Residents pressed the commission for a traffic study, argued that counting of parking spaces relied on existing public boat-ramp stalls that are unavailable at peak times, and urged protections to prevent storage of empty boat trailers in visible community parking areas.
- The applicant (Goodall) and project team said the expanded plan became possible after acquiring additional land and that adding the dry-storage product was intended to make the project financially viable and to fund necessary roadway improvements (including a proposed access/turn lanes on Douglas Bend Road). The applicant said the public boat ramp will remain public under the current lease and that the developer would fund traffic improvements recommended by city engineering. The applicant agreed to work with staff on masonry requirements and said they would provide additional architectural elevations and lake- and street-level renderings at the final master development plan stage.

Commission discussion and outcome
Commissioners repeatedly returned to a single planning question: whether the proposed plan can be reasonably conditioned to protect neighborhood circulation and character or whether the scope of changes requires more detailed materials, traffic analysis and a full major-amendment review before a recommendation to city council. Commissioners emphasized they were not opposed to a waterfront amenity but wanted the applicant to return with clearer elevations and binding traffic/access agreements.

Motion and outcome
The commission accepted the applicant’s request to defer the amended PMDP. Motion to grant deferral: motion made by Chair Harris; seconded by Commissioner Thompson. Vote: approved (ayes recorded; no opposing votes noted). Public comment and staff presentations on the item were extensive and will be part of the record for the next hearing.

What’s next
The applicant said it will work with staff to produce additional architecture, lake- and street-level visuals, and to pursue the access and traffic agreements discussed. The matter will return to the planning commission after those materials are submitted.
