A $30 million townhouse project is planned in Ooltewah as developers keep proposing new housing in the fast-growing part of Hamilton County.

“It’s in a great location,” Joseph Ingram of the engineering group Ingram, Gore & Associates said by phone.

He’s seeking the OK from the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Commission in October for the project at the 13-acre tract at 8417 Old Lee Highway.

The 104-unit development, with townhouses selling in the mid-$300,000 range, is one of several new housing options for the Ooltewah-Collegedale area proposed in recent months.
