The city-parish Planning Commission is schedule to vote on final development plans for three projects—Howell Place South, Southgate Towers and Trinity Oaks—at its meeting this afternoon. Howell Place South will consist of 448 medium- and high-density residential units and 240,000 square feet of commercial space at Airline Highway and 72nd Avenue. Plans are to build an apartment complex for elderly tenants in the mixed-use Howell Place development. Southgate Towers developer Robert Day wants to relocate 46,000 square feet of commercial space in his mixed-use development along Nicholson Drive, bumping an office building from two stories to five stories. Trinity Lutheran Church wants to build a 24-acre church campus at South Harrell’s Ferry Road and Bernwood Drive. The campus would include a chapel, family life center and a school. The commission staff has recommended approving all three projects.
