Panda Express coming to Hendersonville next year
When it will open is subject to change and an exact address wasn t given.
The city of Hendersonville hasn t received an application or site plans for the restaurant. The city has talked to an engineer about a proposed development off of Old Chimney Rock Road, but haven t heard anything else about it since the summer of 2020, according to City Planner Tyler Morrow.
Depending on the size of the building, Panda Express likely won t need approval from the Planning Board or City Council to open; just Planning staff approval would be necessary, Morrow said.
Board recommends rezoning for Duncan Hill Road apartments
The Hendersonville Planning Board unanimously recommended City Council rezone property that would allow a proposed apartment development on Duncan Hill Road to move forward.
At the same meeting earlier this week, the board didn t make a recommendation on a proposal to add more parking spaces at Pardee Hospital.
If approved, the apartment development would include seven three-story, 12-unit buildings on 8.6 acres. There would be 15 one-bedroom, 48 two-bedroom and 21 three-bedroom apartments.
There would also be a gazebo, playgrounds and a community center. A community center would house the office, laundry facility and a computer lab. All areas of the development would be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
