SUBJECT: REPLAT for VILLAGES OF INDIAN LAKES PH 1 LOTS 7 -9 BILK 8
Item: Public hearing, discussion, and possible action on a Replat for the Village of
Indian Lakes Phase 1 Lots 7 -9 Block 8 consisting of 3 lots on 5 acres generally located
at 3697 Calusa Springs Drive. (04- 00500229)
Applicant: Paul Clarke, Owner/ Developer
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval, with the condition that a public
water line is constructed in accordance with city standards, including city- approved
construction plans and a fire flow analysis.
Item Summary: This item is a public hearing. The owner is proposing to replat 3
existing lots into 2 lots along Calusa Springs Drive. Both proposed lots have access to
streets and utilities. Construction plans and a fire flow analysis have not been
submitted for review at this time.
The applicant contends that this replat is not subject to fire flow requirements, which
were adopted as an amendment to the Subdivision Regulations in August 2004, due to
the Vesting Statute, outlined in Chapter 245 of the Texas Local Government Code.
However, city staff has made a determination that replats are considered new projects,
and are therefore not vested under Chapter 245.
The applicant and his representative will be present to present their opinion regarding
vesting and fire flow requirements. Under the UDO, the applicant has the ability to
appeal staff's determination, which may be placed as a separate item on a subsequent
Planning & Zoning Commission agenda.
Land Use Plan: Rural Residential
Thoroughfare Plan: A Minor Arterial is shown just to the north of the subject property.
