Request
We received an application for changes to the planned community at the Links at Brunello in Timberlea. If approved, the changes would:
- Move the "Golf Course Safety Margin" shown in the existing comprehensive development agreement;
- Modify some locations approved for residential development; and
- Change the mix of houses, duplexes and townhouses permitted around holes 1, 2, 9 and 16 of the golf course.
The development plans linked below describe the requested changes.
Existing Development Agreement
The planned community was permitted through a development agreement originally approved in 2002. It permits a mixed-use golf community including different types of dwellings (apartment buildings, duplexes, townhouses and houses) and commercial uses surrounding the Links at Brunello golf course in Timberlea.
