Impact analysis
Parkland dedication and park development fees will be paid per unit at permitting, and a traffic study could require turn-lane improvements on Friendship Lane.
Future residents get new apartments near shopping, and the city gains housing stock and fee revenue.
Neighbors may see more traffic on Friendship Lane and continued south-side drainage pressure.
