The developer of the $100 million Chattanooga Village proposal met with critics for nearly two hours Thursday as the sides sought to hammer out differences – with mixed results.

With a planned City Council vote on the project Tuesday, the sides agreed to disagree on some conditions on the huge apartment and commercial project proposed for Hixson.

On others, developer Duane Horton of Scenic Land Co. was to tweak the conditions and present them in writing for review by some nearby neighborhood residents and the North Chickamauga Creek Conservancy, who have questioned the project.

Greg Haynes of the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency said the document will help show staff and the council where the sides agree or don’t.

“We’ll see who blinks first,” he said.
