Email: chartl@cstx.gov Meeting Date: September 21, 2006
Project Number: 06-00500178
Item: Presentation, possible action, and discussion on a Preliminary Plat for Oakland Ridge
consisting of 142 lots on 39.873 acres generally located just north of Cain Road on Jones-Butler
Road in the City's Extra-territorial Jurisdiction.
Applicant: David Borsack, Owner
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat.
ETJ Plats - Brazos County's comments and recommendations: The applicant will be
required to address and possibly request variances to a number of issues including lot size, lot
width, and street and alley right-of-way widths.
Item Summary: This item is for consideration of a Preliminary Plat for 39.873 acres in the City's
Extra-territorial Jurisdiction. The plat includes five phases of development, including 77 single
family lots, 63 town home lots, and two larger lots intended for future condominium and
commercial development. The average density across the development is 6.12 lots per acre.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Land Use Plan projects Rural Density Residential
for this area, but the City has no authority over land use in the ETJ. Jones-Butler Road is
shown as a major collector on the City's Thoroughfare Plan. This request is in compliance with
the City's Comprehensive Plan and with the recently approved Master Plan.
Item Background: The Commission recently heard a request for a Master Plan for the Oakland
Ridge subdivision on July 20, 2006. The Master Plan was approved after the applicant and
neighboring developer agreed on a street connection between the two properties. This
Preliminary Plat is in compliance with all minimum standards of the City's Subdivision
Regulations.
Budgetary & Financial Summary: None
Related Advisory Board Recommendations:
Parks Board: Since the property is in the ETJ, the Parks and Recreation Board does not
review this Master Plan.
Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the preliminary plat.
The options regarding the preliminary plat are:
• Approval
■ Denial
