Following a special called work session on Monday to discuss proposed revisions to the Pinewood Forrest Development Agreement, the Fayetteville City Council voted 5-0 Tuesday night to accept the plan.

The agreement spells out terms for rezoning and developing three parcels totaling about 135 acres along Veterans Parkway and Hood Avenue for residential and mixed use. Some of the changes pertained to setbacks, dwelling unit sizes and fire code standards. Mayor Ed Johnson thanked all the parties involved for their “patience and understanding” in working together to finalize the terms.
