Pepper Square Rezoning Hearing – August 8

Henry S. Miller and their consultant Masterplan have released an updated proposal regarding their application to rezone Pepper Square from Community Retail to Mixed Use 2. This appears to be the final version that will be presented to the City Plan Commission at the upcoming hearing on Thursday, August 8th. In summary, they are seeking to build 752 residential units over 3 phases, in buildings that range from 5 stories to 12 stories. They would have the option to add an additional 116 units if they are designated as retirement housing and another additional 116 units if they are made available to households earning less than the area median family income. (It’s likely they would opt to pay a fee in lieu of offering the mixed-income housing units. There is no fee in lieu option for the retirement units). The total maximum number of dwelling units would be 984. Their most recent prior proposal had included a maximum number of dwelling units of 1,550. The first phase of their proposal would include a 5 story building with 300 units and two park spaces – one along Belt Line Rd and one interior to the site. The exact unit counts for [...]

April 2024 Alley Clean-Up

The first weekend in April is the Annual April Alley Clean-Up. Since Bulk Trash pickup for Northwood Hills begins Monday, April 8, this is the perfect opportunity to tend to your alley and dispose of any brush or debris you clear out. Each homeowner is responsible for maintaining the area from their back property line to the center of the alley. That includes trimming bushes so they don't scrape cars or obstruct the alley. Trees that overhang the alley are required to be trimmed up 15 feet to allow clearance for garbage collection trucks. If trucks have to maneuver to avoid your branches, trash, or other debris, chances are they will cause damage to your alley in the process! Let's keep it clean.

Pepper Square Redevelopment Update 3

Neighborhood leaders recently met with property owner Greg Miller, representatives from Masterplan (consulting firm), D11 Plan Commissioner Brandy Treadway, and D11 Council Member Jaynie Schultz to discuss the status of the rezoning request for the northeast corner of Belt Line & Preston Roads, referred to as Pepper Square. The seemingly final proposal presented for feedback included many of the same aspects as prior proposals we've seen, with some variation in building height this time. To review the presentation, please click here. Essentially, the rezoning request is seeking approval for a mixed-use development to be built over the next 10 years that would include retail and/or restaurant options on the main floor and residential units above them. It would be built in 3 phases, with a 2 acre publicly-accessible park to be included in the first phase. If full allowable build-out is achieved, there would potentially be 1,550 residential units on the site, most likely all rental units, but possibly some owner-occupied units depending on market demand at the time future phases are started. The renderings in the presentation linked earlier show two options the property owner is considering. One would involve a 5-story building and the park, followed by a 12-story [...]
