A company called Sunview Development, which is affiliated with Signature Homes, is asking for the city to rezone 3.8 acres at 3034 Green Valley Road between Green Valley Road and Sunview Drive to accommodate 19 detached single-family homes instead of the current nine existing lots.
The actual zoning change being requested is to rezone the property from an R-4 medium-density residential district and R-8 townhome district to an R-9 planned residential district. The proposed plan includes two entrances from Sunview Drive and a single interior street.

Lots would range from 50 to 60 feet wide, with the smallest lot being 6,900 square feet and the largest lot being 9,655 square feet, records show. The average home size would be about 3,000 square feet, said Bob Easley, an engineer representing Signature Homes.
Sidewalks are proposed to be built on both Sunview Drive and Green Valley Road.
The Vestavia Hills Planning and Zoning Commission on May 14 voted unanimously to recommend approval of the rezoning request.
The City Council also on June 15 will consider:
- A request to allow a drop-off donation center for the Vapor Ministries thrift stores at 3253 Cahaba Heights Road. This would be a drop-off center only with no sales taking place there, and there would be no outdoor storage or donation bins, the nonprofit said.
- A request to allow a Scenthound dog bathing and grooming business in a shopping center at 3155 Green Valley Road. There would be no boarding or veterinary services offered. There are four other Scenthound locations in the Birmingham area (Greystone, Hoover, Trussville and Mountain Brook/Homewood).
