The developers of a commercial and residential development in Ooltewah are seeking to rezone a portion of the 140-acre project to build 60 attached, single-family villas.

The Village of Oakbrook, a decade-old development located along Hurricane Creek on Oakbrook Trail and East Brainerd Road on the west side and top of White Oak Mountain, is proposing to rezone about 12 acres to add more residential units.

“We’re excited about the future of this special community,” said Duane Horton, president of Scenic Land Co., and a partner in the development. “This is an extension of our plan to build a multi-use development with housing, retail and restaurant development while preserving and protecting the natural beauty of this area.”

The developers set aside nearly 100 acres for a conservation greenway that includes walking paths, wooded areas, an old mill site and even some historic Civil war encampment areas.
