An increased offer of financial contributions to Chapel Hill’s affordable housing efforts helped save a new apartment community along South Elliott Road from falling short in a town council vote Wednesday night.

Town council members ultimately approved the conditional zoning application for 200 South Elliott Road with a 7-2 vote, with Camille Berry and Adam Searing dissenting, which will bring an apartment community of up to 350 units, at least 4,000 square feet of commercial space, a mixed-use path and a stormwater retention area to the site. The property — which is partially zoned in the Blue Hill District’s office/institutional space and partially zoned in the residential space off Couch Road — is now officially zoned for mixed-use development and will lead to the demolition of the building currently housing the nonprofit Extraordinary Ventures in favor of five-to-six story mixed-use buildings surrounding a parking deck.

Wednesday’s vote was an unceremonious affair, with few council members expressing much excitement for the proposal and the development representation having changed since its last appearance in front of the elected officials. Trinisic Residential Group, which was the initial applicant and which is behind two other projects in Chapel Hill, dropped out of the 200 South Elliott Road planning in recent weeks. In its stead, the locally based Rockwood Development Group hopped in alongside McAdams and Cline Design Associates.
