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.

Commission should consider the criteria within UDC, Section 21.12.8 D.
