Project Manager: Molly Hitchcock Date: November 18, 2004
Email: mhitchcock @cstx.gov
Item: Consideration, discussion, and possible action on a Final Plat for the Terrace
Pines Subdivision consisting of one lot on 8.986 acres located on the eastern corner of
the intersection of Dartmouth and Krenek Tap.
Applicant: Lankford Interests, LLC
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Final Plat with the
condition that the Plat be revised as needed to address the attached Staff Review
Comments #2.
Item Summary: The subject property is being platted for the development of an age -
restrictive (fifty -five and older) apartment community. The property is surrounded by
unplatted R -4 property to the east (developed as single family) and platted R -2 Duplex
and R -3 Townhouse property to the north (a mixture of undeveloped lots, duplexes, and
single family).
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: While the Land Use Plan designates the area
for Single Family Medium Density, the property is zoned R -4 Multi - Family. It is located
in the newly created Krenek Tap Overlay District, which will regulate design standards
at time of Site Plan. It was included in the original City Centre Plan, but the property on
the north side of Krenek Tap has since been removed from the plan.
Dartmouth is a minor arterial and Krenek Tap is a minor collector. The City has been
working with the applicant to gain landscape easements along Dartmouth and Krenek
Tap so that the City may provide plantings leading to the future entrance of the City
Centre.
Related Advisory Board Recommendations: At their November 9, 2004 meeting, the
Parks Board agreed to accept a fee in lieu of land for this project.
