Project Manager: Jennifer Reeves, Planner Report Date: March 9, 2006
Email: jreeves@cstx.gov Meeting Date: April 6, 2006
Project Number: 06-00500008
Item: Presentation, possible action, and discussion on a Final Plat for Sendera
Subdivision, consisting of 23 lots on approximately 98.7 acres located on FM
2154, just south of Bentwood Estates in the City's ETJ.
Applicant: Joe Schultz, Agent for Owner/Developer
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat as
submitted.
Item Summary: The property owner is proposing to develop a rural residential
subdivision consisting of 23 lots, ranging in size from 1.35 acres to 8.8 acres.
The Commission recently approved the Preliminary Plat in February with a
variance to Section 12-K.2 (Block Lengths) of the Subdivision Regulations.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Land Use Plan shows most of the
land in the ETJ to be developed at a rural density (very low density residential
development with agricultural and support uses). The City does not control land
use in the county, but does share platting authority. FM 2154 is designated as a
Major Arterial on the City's Thoroughfare Plan.
Item Background: The subject property was brought into the ETJ in 1995. To
the north adjacent to the subject property is Bentwood Estates which was platted
in 2003 and developed as rural residential lots. Across FM 2154 from the subject
property is Duck Haven Estates that was platted and developed in 2004 as rural
residential lots as well.
Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the final
plat. The options regarding the final plat are:
• Approval
• Denial
Supporting Materials:
1. Small Area Map (SAM) and Aerial Map
2. Application
3. Copy of Final Plat (provided in packet)
