42.87 acres, located on FM 2252 approximately 400 + feet north of FM 482.
Ms. Nichols began the presentation on the item by stating that this property is located on the east side
of FM 2252 approximately 400 feet north of FM 482. One access point has been approved by TXDOT
based on the property having approximately 420 feet of frontage on FM 2252. The developer is
accounting for drainage by dedicating a 30? drainage easement through his property.
The Director of Parks and Recreation has determined that a hike and bike trail would be better suited on
the east side of FM 2252, therefore sidewalks will be required in front of this property at time of
development. The plat does show a right-of-way dedication of 15 feet along FM 2252, which is
designated by the Master Thoroughfare Plan (MTP) as a Principal Arterial, 120 foot, as are all Farm to
Market roads.
An existing 12? water line provides service to this property. No construction of water lines is required
per this plat. The property lies within two sewer shed areas. The front of the property from FM 2252 to
approximately 400 feet to the west drains to FM 2252. Depending on the development of the sewer
system, the property may be able to be served by the future sewer line to the west. Currently, sewer
service is approximately 2.5 miles from this property.The applicant is requesting a waiver to not
provide sewer service, but instead utilize an onsite septic system.
The applicant will be responsible for all drainage associated with the subject property, and for
compliance with the Storm Water regulations, which may require onsite detention at the time of site
plan/development. Grading and drainage plans are subject to review and approval by the City Engineer.
Staff supports the waiver, given the significant distance of the existing sewer lines, contingent upon the
applicant entering into a subdivision agreement requiring the developer to provide for the cost of the
sewer line improvements that are planned through the property. The development can function with an
OSSF (onsite septic system) until such time as the sewer line is extended to the property, atwhich time
the applicant would be required to connect to the available sewer. If the City has not constructed a line
to this property within 10 years, the owner will be reimbursed the total he paid for the line across his
property.
Discussion followed between the Staff and Commission. Mr. Dahlemoved to approve this item as
presented including the waiver for the onsite sewage facility. Mr. Braud seconded the motion. Vote
was 6-0. Motion carried.
