66 ENVISION FRANKLIN | Design Concepts MOBILITY Vehicular Vehicular connections should be provided through adjacent developments and connect to the existing street network. New development should provide an interconnected street and sidewalk network in a grid or modified grid pattern, where appropriate. If there are existing street connections or stubouts adjacent to proposed developments, then those in the proposed developments should connect to the existing street network. If there are no existing street or stubout connections, then other locations should be identified in order to increase connectivity between developments. Bicycle and Pedestrian New development should provide sidewalks, multi-use paths, and trails throughout its open spaces. They should connect to other conservation areas, paths, adjacent uses, and streets. These bicycle, pedestrian, and multi-use path connections should be designed and provided per Connect Franklin and the Parks Master Plan. Transit Transit stops and/or stations should be provided along existing or planned routes. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS Between Interstate 65 and Carothers Parkway and North of Upland Drive Existing assisted living facilities may be converted to multifamily residential units. Demolition of such buildings for the purposes of constructing new multifamily residential uses is not supported. Columbia Pike and Mack Hatcher Parkway, Southeast Quadrant New development should be designed to preserve the viewshed of Winstead Hill and should be set back 250 feet along Columbia Pike. Continuum of Care may be appropriate with agriculturally inspired architectural features. Building height should not exceed two stories to protect the viewshed of the historic Winstead Hill. East of Pratt Lane and Along Peytonsville Road Improvements to Pratt Lane or the construction of a new north/south local street connector should be provided to support the future development of this area. Due to the existing development constraints such as the limited street network and steep slopes, future development requests should include the assemblage of several parcels as part of an overall development to help with the buildout of this area. Continuum of care facilities may also be an appropriate future use, but only if the street network is constructed and adequate for emergency services. The Conservation Design Concept should be reevaluated once the final alignment for the proposed I-65 flyover connector road has been determined. New development along the future Carothers Parkway extension should have moderate setbacks of at least 50 feet from the right-of-way and include wood-plank fencing or stone walls, enhanced landscaping, and monument signage to help create community character along the corridor. Franklin Housing Authority Franklin Housing Authority properties may include a limited number of multifamily residential in accordance with their master plans. MIXED RESIDENTIAL
