Three community development cases were heard by the McDonough City Council at its April 7 regular meeting.

A preliminary plat was approved for The Enclave at Brookstone on Hwy. 42 and McDonough Parkway, formerly known as Highway 42 Townhomes.

A three-acre parcel on Hampton Street, part of the second phase of the Eagles Rest development, is the subject of a request for rezoning from single-family residential to residential townhouse district zoning.

A variance request is in place for a parcel at 239 Hwy. 81 West, asking to permit a height increase from 40 to 50 feet to allow a four-story hotel.

The rezoning and variance are scheduled to be addressed at the council’s April 18 meeting with a public hearing and vote.
