Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity House Addition

Oxford

Description

A proposed three-story, roughly 5,800-square-foot addition to the existing grandfathered Phi Kappa Tau house, adding 11 double-occupancy bedrooms, a dining/sitting area, and a house manager's suite, with a smaller parking area and one street cut eliminated.

Impact summary

Would add up to 22 residents to fraternity row, shrink parking, and require removing a large rear tree; commissioners want a redesigned, attached single-building scheme before voting.

A 3-story, 1,930-square-foot-per-floor addition with up to 22 occupants, connected by a breezeway, on the corner of Tallawanda Road and E Sycamore Street. Tabled so plans can be revised for the 20-foot fire-code driveway and the parking shortfall.
