Peach Creek Development Revised Master Plan
MBESI No. 10570007
DearJennifer:
PLANNING : (Jennifer Prochazka & Josh Norton, Date: December 21, 2009)
COMMENT #1: As an FYI, the proposed Master Plan is not in compliance with the
Comprehensive Plan. The Land Use and Character portion of the Plan
designates the property as rural. The proposed Thoroughfare locations
also do not correspond with the Thoroughfare Plan contained in the
Comprehensive Plan.
ACTION: Duly noted.
COMMENT #2: As an FYI, it appears that the Master Plan, as submitted, will require a
number of variances during the platting of the property and, if granted, the
facilities may be inadequate for the development. Approval of the Master
Plan does not indicate future approval of variances by the Planning and
Zoning Commission. All subsequent plat submittals will need to meet
minimum standards (or have variances approved.)
ACTION: Duly noted.
COMMENT #3: There is a hatching used on a small portion of the plan that is not shown in
the legend. On the previous plan this area was shown for commercial.
ACTION: The hatching for this area has been changed to the appropriate land use,
commercial.
COMMENT #4: Please more distinctly show the Phase 1 area on sheet 1. It is difficult to
tell what area it includes as it gets closer to SH6. You'll need to revise the
phase line shown on sheet 2, since Phase 1 would not have any access.
ACTION: Phase 1 has been more distinctly shown on sheet 1. If more detail for
Phase 1 is needed, please refer to sheet 2. The phase line for Phase 1
has been revised to show the access to SH 6.

TXDOT
Access driveways to SH 6 & FM 2154 must meet TxDOT's current "Regulations for Access
Driveways to State Highways". Regulations are "primarily" based on posted speed limits and
distances between proposed & adjacent access points. Where the posted speed limit is 50
MPH or greater the required minimum spacing between access points is 425'; @ 45 MPH
spacing is 360'. Where access spacing is insufficient joint access will be required or access to
internal/external streets. Any proposed Access driveways should take into account the
location of the ramps along the west ROW of SH 6. Appropriate data, including drainage will be
required for any future work/permits in the ROW @ this development site.
