February 11, 2013 (Original Application) ûììðóùûèóíîéçúïóèèûðøûè÷ March 1, 2013 (Revised Submittal) March 6, 2013 (Revised Submittal) The applicant is proposing to preliminary plat 22.49+ acres of land establishing 68 single óè÷ïéçïïûêã family residential lots with a minimum lot size of 6,600 square feet as dictated by the zoning district. The site is zoned Single Family Residential District-6 (R-6). The subject property is currently undeveloped and located õ÷î÷êûððíùûèóíîûîøéóè÷ø÷éùêóìèóíî on the generally west of the intersection of Schaefer Road and FM 1518. The UDC, Article 14, requires that all residential subdivisions have a minimum ûùù÷ééûîøùóêùçðûèóíî of two (2) locations accessing existing public streets. This development is designed to have two (2) points of access via FM 1518, via Arbor Park Lane which was constructed as part of Willow Grave Unit 1, and Schaefer Road. The applicant will be responsible for complying with Unified èê÷÷ïóèóõûèóíîûîøìê÷é÷êæûèóíî Development Code (UDC), Section 21.9.9 Tree Preservation and Mitigation. The applicant has submitted a Tree affidavit which indicates that protected or heritage trees will be removed from the site. A tree survey is required to be submitted at the time of final plat. : A 2.61+ acre private park is being provided for this subdivision; however, because the private park ìûêñé does not meet the minimum development standards of the UDC the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department has determined that a fee-in lieu of parkland dedication in the amount of $1000 per dwelling unit will be paid by the Developer prior to recording of the final plat. This application was reviewed under UDC, Ordinance 11-S-15. The site is serviced by Schertz water and sewer, CPS, AT&T, and Time Warner Cable. ìçúðóùé÷êæóù÷é All public improvements required for this subdivision are required to be installed ìçúðóùóïìêíæ÷ï÷îèé prior to recording of the final plat per UDC, Section 21.4.15., unless otherwise specified in an approved development agreement. The civil construction plans have been reviewed by the Public Works and Engineering Departments. Water and Sewer: This site is serviced through 8? water lines and 8? sewer lines that will be extended throughout the subdivision and stubbed for future development. Drainage: The applicant is responsible for all drainage associated with the subject property, and for compliance with the Storm Water regulations. Drainage report has been reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. The subdivision will provide onsite detention. Sidewalks, Hike and Bike Trails: Sidewalks will be constructed along both sides of the street throughout the subdivision and along Schaefer Road. All sidewalks are designed to meet the City of Schertz specifications. Road Improvements: All streets will be developed to City of Schertz specifications. Unit 2 is located adjacent to Schaefer Road. A 7.5? street dedication has been provided for expansion along Schaefer Road. Per the UDC the applicant is responsible for improving half the width of Schaefer Road adjacent to the subject property, approximately 330 linear feet. Construction plans for all public improvements will be submitted and approved by Public Works and Engineering prior to approval of the final plat. éèûööûîûðãéóéûîøê÷ùíïï÷îøûèóíî The proposed preliminary plat is consistent with applicable requirements for the property, ordinances and regulations except for the minimum lot depth according to the UDC, Table 21.5.7A. Lot depth is measured as the distance of a line connecting the midpoints of the front and rear lot lines. It appears that Block 6, Lot 8, 14, 15; Block 2, Lot 29; Block 5, Lot 1 and Block 7 Lot 2 do not meet the minimum lot depth requirement. The UDC is specific that all lots shall have at least the minimum area, width, and depth indicated in the dimensional requirements table. Staff has reviewed the previously approved Unit 1 and Master Plan and it appears that both documents were approved with lots that do not meet the minimum lot depths within the subdivision. Unit 1 has been filed for record, so nothing can be done at this point and staff is not proposing to withhold building permits for those lots. Staff is proposing to add this Unit 1 to the validation Sec. 21.7.10 of the UDC to address this situation. Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat with the condition that all minimum lot dimension are met within Unit 2. ìÐÛÎÎÓÎÕø×ÌÛÊÈÏ×ÎÈê×ÙÍÏÏ×ÎØÛÈÓÍÎ Approve as submitted XApprovewithconditions* Denial * While the Commission can impose conditions; conditions should only be imposed to meet requirements of the UDC. 2 The Planning and Zoning Commission is the final ùíïïóééóíî÷êéùêóè÷êóûöíêùíîéóø÷êûèóíî approval authority of the proposed preliminary plat. In considering final action on a preliminary plat, the Commission should consider the criteria within UDC, Section 21.12.8 D. ûÈÈÛÙÔÏ×ÎÈÉ Aerial (Maps) Lot dimension chart Exhibit 3
