A developer with a vision to convert the old Quality Inn on State Highway 31 East to efficiency apartments came before the Athens City Council on Monday, seeking a zoning change.
The agenda item was the first reading of a request from Profectus Multifamily Capital of Dallas to change the zoning from commercial to Planned Development.
âWe think itâs an amazing opportunity, both for the city and us,â Managing Partner Paul Yazbeck said.
The hilltop site is similar to a property they currently own in Copperas Cove, which has been a successful project, Yazbeck said.
