A request to annex a 75-acre parcel of property in the New Holland area of Gainesville is scheduled to go before the Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board again Tuesday.
The matter was put on hold for a month by the board at its May 9 meeting.
The Board had been set to consider the request of Limestone Greenway LLC at that meeting, but, the developer sent a last-minute letter asking that the request be tabled for a month. Gainesville Planning Director Matt Tate said at the time no reason was given for the request for the delay.
Planning board members voted unanimously to accept the developer's request to table the proposal and agreed to hear the application June 12.
The proposed project includes more than 189,000 square feet of office, retail, restaurant and hotel space, as well as apartment and single family homes for a piece of property at the intersection of Limestone Parkway at Jesse Jewell Parkway. The project would be located in the booming New Holland section of the city near I-985. The city planning staff has recommended approval of the project with some conditions.
