Developer Meetings Regarding the Lively

The Lively is a proposed apartment complex on Folly Road.   The current zoning on the site allows for 120 apartments, but the developers are seeking a rezoning to allow 340 apartments.   The developer has scheduled four meetings.  One was already held.  The second is tonight.

Here is the link.

COMMUNITY MEETINGS TOPICS

April 26 at 7pm    James Island Elementary     Project
May 12 at 7pm     James Island Elementary    Stormwater
May 24 at 7pm     James Island Elementary    Traffic
June 2 at 7pm      James Island Elementary    Architecture

Somewhat more important will be the meeting of the Charleston County Planning Commission which will make a recommendation to County Council on the rezoning.   That meeting has not been scheduled yet.

Even more important will be the meeting where County Council considers the proposed rezoning.   There will be a public hearing.  This is where concerns about this rezoning and the added congestion it will cause on Folly Road will be heard.

If County Council votes against the rezoning, then only a much scaled down version of the development would be possible--approximately 120 apartments.   More likely there would be nothing right away but sooner or later something entirely different--one of the many commercial uses permitted on the parcel given its current  zoning.   Permanently leaving it as woods or having it developed as single family residences would be highly unlikely.
