The ordinance rezones 0.95 acres at 1725 South Hamilton Road and 3195 & 3199 Doak Avenue from RS10 to R10. This change allows for the development of duplexes by right, increasing housing density in the area. The properties, located at the northwest corner of Doak Avenue and South Hamilton Road, previously only permitted single-family homes. This zoning amendment aligns with Nashville’s urban planning goals to encourage higher-density residential development where infrastructure supports it. The rezoning supports greater flexibility in housing options while maintaining the neighborhood's character.
This rezoning increases housing opportunities by permitting duplexes, supporting urban infill and Nashville’s broader housing goals. It promotes better land use efficiency in a growing residential district.
