Auburn council to update Indian Hills plan

»  Comments | Post a Comment

The Auburn City Council will meet at 7 p.m. today in the city council chambers at 141 N. Ross St. The pre-meeting planning session, or committee of the whole, will start at 6:45 p.m.

INDIAN HILLS SUBDIVISION: City Manager Charlie Duggan is scheduled to present an update on the Indian Hill Road issue.

The City of Auburn has talked with Scott Land Company about a planned office park in Opelika behind Auburn’s Indian Hills subdivision. The developer’s plans include connecting an access road to Indian Hill Road, currently a dead end.

The city has asked the developer for a master plan and later a traffic study.

If no solution can be found, the city could choose to end Indian Hill Road before the city limits, preventing the developer from connecting to the road.

CHALESTON SQUARE: A development agreement between the city and a developer for The Towns at North Dean Road, also called Charleston Square, is on the agenda.
The development, a 247-unit student apartment complex, will be built at the intersection of DeKalb Street and North Dean Road.

The plans require no city action other than a development agreement, a city official said last week.

The agreement requires the developer, North Carolina-based Auburn Investment Partners, L.L.C., to pay for a left turn lane and pay $75,000 for a traffic signal at the intersection of DeKalb Street and East Univer-sity Drive.

Under the agreement, the developer will connect North and South DeKalb streets and include a traffic circle.

TAX ABATEMENT: A resolution is on the agenda to provide ad valorem and sales tax abatements for new equipment to be used at CNJ, Inc. in Auburn Industrial Park.

The tax abatements will not include taxes that go toward education, hospitals and children’s homes.
