Park Projects Summary
In Process Park Projects
Completed Park Projects
Dedications of Less than Five Acres
12 at Rock Prairie Subdivision Phase 1 (Neighborhood Zone 15, Community Zone B): this final plat proposes 51 townhouse lots along Rock Prairie Road West next the Buena Vida and Barracks
II Subdivisions. The project was previously called Equinox Subdivision and has changed its name to 12 at Rock Prairie. The parkland form for the Equinox preliminary plan was sent back
in September 2014. This final plat is scheduled for approval by the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting at their January 5th meeting.
The Barracks II Subdivision Phase 108 (Neighborhood Zone 15, Community Zone B): this final plat adds 63 townhouse lots to the subdivision. As neighborhood parkland has been dedicated
and park improvements have been built or a financial surety has been provided, only Community Park fee in lieu is due. The final plat is tentatively scheduled for approval at the January
15th Planning & Zoning Commission meeting.
Copper Creek Condos site plan (Neighborhood Zone 6, Community Zone B): this is a revised parkland form for this project that was originally provided in July 2013. The project on Southwest
Parkway near Wellborn Road, is required to build a public multi-use path and the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board approved the use of Neighborhood Park and Community Park development
fees for the construction of the path at their April 2010 meeting. The original form showed fee in lieu for all parkland so the updated form shows credit given to the development fees
with construction of the path as previously approved. Building permits for slab only have been issued for two buildings. To receive full building permits, the remaining fees need to
be paid and a financial surety provided for the multi-use path.
Presentation, possible action, and discussion on future agenda items: A Board Member may inquire about a subject for which notice has not been given. A statement of specific factual
information or the recitation of existing policy may be given. Any deliberation shall be limited to a proposal to place the subject on an agenda for a subsequent meeting.
