The Fayetteville City Council met with project organizers at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting on June 26 to review an order to approve a special use permit that would allow for the construction of 42 townhomes along Old Bunce Road. 

According to City records, this is the latest progress on the project. The City Council held an evidentiary hearing on May 22, 2023, to consider a Special Use Permit request filed by Scott Brown, 4D Site Solutions, Inc., (“Applicant”) on behalf of King Model Homes Construction Co. Inc., (“Property Owner”) and Ben Stout, Stout Land Development, LLC., (“Developer”) to issue a Special Use Permit to allow 42 townhomes (single-family attached dwellings) on property located on Old Bunce Road, Fayetteville, NC (“Subject Property”). The Subject Property is presently zoned as Single-Family Residential 6 (SF-6). 

On May 8, 2023, a notice of evidentiary hearing was mailed to the Property Owner and

all of the owners of property within 1,000 feet of the Subject Property. On May 8, 2023,

a notice of evidentiary hearing sign was placed on the Subject Property. On May 12and

19, 2023, a notice of evidentiary hearing advertisement was placed in the legal section of

The Fayetteville Observer.

After considering all of the sworn testimony, evidence, and oral arguments submitted at

the hearing from the parties, the City Council proceeded with a Findings of Fact before approving the Special Use Permit needed to continue with the project. 

Some of the findings include:
