County commissioners approved a rezoning to allow 166 apartments in seven buildings on Naples Road a mile west of the AdventHealth campus.
The Henderson County Board of Commissioners on Wednesday granted a rezoning to allow a 166-unit apartment complex on Naples Road between Asheville Highway and AdventHealth hospital.
Developer Luis Graef, of Coral Springs, Florida, sought a conditional use rezoning to allow the one-, two- and three-bedroom rental units in seven three- and four-story buildings on 10.4 acres a mile west of the AdventHealth campus.
Plans include a clubhouse and pool, 5-foot sidewalks, parking lot landscaping and an existing buffer of trees along I-26. The site plan also includes space for a possible Apple Country Transit shelter. The site will have 53 percent pervious surface and 30 percent open space. In a traffic impact analysis it submitted to the NCDOT, the developer said the apartment complex would generate 1,140 car trips a day.
During the meeting on Wednesday, responding to a question from Commissioner Michael Edney, Graef said rents are expected to be $1,400 for a one-bedroom unit, $1,600 for two-bedroom and $1,900 for three-bedroom.
A rendering showed a multi-unit building constructed from wood with a shingled roof. Engineer Jared Deridder has described the look as “very similar to Brittany Place” on U.S. 64 East in Hendersonville. The Naples Road property is in a land-use category that “encourages mixed-use development, especially multistory units,” county planners said.
In two other requests, the Henderson County Planning Board is scheduled to take up two applications next month that would clear the way for residential development:
The Planning Board, which canceled its June 20 meeting for lack of a quorum, is next scheduled to meet on July 18.
