...sorry about the delay in reporting this (sick kids/out of town) but I still haven't seen it reported elsewhere so here goes:
Last Monday, at the Pike Road town council meeting, several big pieces of news were announced. In terms of smart growth, the most important was easily the annexation of the Lafayette Traditional Neighborhood Development into the Town of Pike Road.
This makes two TNDs for Pike Road with Lafayette being the first that will actually be permitted under the SmartCode (The Waters is the other and, while built according to SmartCode principles, has not actually been permitted under it).
Regarding Lafayette, it a roughly 45 acre project located near the intersection of Vaughn Road and Chantilly Parkway. We're told that construction should begin in early 2008 with several experienced TND builders likely participating in the project.
The land is owned by Andrew Hall (publisher of the King Kudzu periodical) with the lead land planning consultant being the Brown, Chambless architecture firm (we're told that this is their first subdivision development in the Town of Pike Road).
If anyone has any additional details, feel free to forward them to cemerson@faulkner.edu.
