TRC will carefully examine all of the technical aspects of the proposal to ensure that Amarx is following city regulations to the letter. This is where issues including stormwater runoff, traffic, and certain environmental concerns will be addressed.
 

Attendance at the TRC meeting: This is an open meeting that we are able to attend. There will NOT be an opportunity for questions or comments, so please do not attend with the expectation that you will be able to speak.

It could also be beneficial to you personally to attend if you have an interest in hearing a first-hand account of the proceedings.

NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING ON MARCH 24, 2021

To satisfy a condition of the approval process for Level II project, the developer, Amarx Construction, invited neighbors within 200 ft of the development to participate in a virtual call for proposed plans to be presented. Due to the grave impact of the project, a total of approx. 70 neighbors joined the call.  Representatives from Amarx Construction, Brooks Engineering and Siteworks Studios participated in the call. They presented various details including size, design, access, tree buffer, storm water and grading.  Neighbors asked important questions regarding access, streetlights, water pressure, utility outages during construction, sewer, traffic study, erosion, wildlife, right of way, natural springs and timing.  Neighbors were hoping that input would be well received by developer and changes could be made to make it a mutually beneficial development for both existing community as well as developer.  Developer indicated that their intention is to proceed with submitting the existing proposed site plan with some minor tweaks to TRC for approval.  Basically, what neighbors had to say was irrelevant. The next step  in the approval process is submission to Technical Review Committee which will include summary of neighborhood meeting. The review plans are due to be submitted end of April and TRC meeting will take place on May 17th. TRC meeting will be open to the public and comments are welcome. After application submission all documents and drawings will be available online @ (simplicity.ashevillenc.gov).
