Acting at the request of developer David C. Slaughter, the East Baton Rouge Parish Planning and Zoning Commission on Monday deferred until July 22 action on a proposal to build a 115-unit apartment development in Spanish Town.

Slaughter’s plan for a six-story apartment building on land at State Capitol Drive, North Seventh Street, Lakeland Drive and North Sixth Street, would require rezoning the property from medium-density residential to high-density residential.

He said before the well-attended meeting that he wants to try to allay the concerns of the Historic Spanish Town Civic Association.

Holley Vaughn, a civic association board member, said Slaughter can revamp his plans, but any plan requiring a rezoning to high-density residential would be unacceptable.
