[c. Replats requiring Public Hearings with Notification (John Cedillo, Ken Calhoun, Aracely Rodriguez, and Dorianne Powe-Phlegm) ]

GOOD AFTERNOON, MADAM CHAIR, MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

MY NAME IS JOHN PHILLIPS CILLO.

ITEM 69 IS ALCON BERRY RESIDENCE.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS AN OVER 8,500 SQUARE FOOT PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE HOUSTON CITY LIMITS AT THE SOUTHEAST INTERSECTION OF COLIN BOULEVARD AND ALBERRY LANE NORTH OF OLD SPANISH TRAIL.

THE REASON FOR REPL IS TO CREATE TWO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LOTS.

THE APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED A VARIANCE TO NOT DEDICATE FIVE FEET OF WIDENING TO ALBERRY LANE.

ALL NOTIFICATION REQUIRES MINUTES HAVE BEEN MET AND STAFF HAS RECEIVED ADVANCED COMMENTS REGARDING LOT SIZE AND CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

THIS IS A PLT OF LOT 14 BLOCK ONE OF THE RIVERSIDE TERRACE ANNEX REVIEW BY LEGAL INDICATES THE PROPOSED PLAT DOES VIOLATE BUILDING LINE RESTRICTIONS FILED SEPARATELY.

THOSE BUILDING LINE CHANGES WOULD GREATLY IMPACT THE INTENDED LAYOUT FOR THE LOTS.

AS SUCH, THE APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED DEFERRAL TO ALLOW THEM TO COORDINATE WITH LEGAL AND TO CONSIDER POSSIBLE LAYOUTS TO COME INTO COMPLIANCE WITH THOSE DEED RESTRICTED BUILDING LINES.

SO STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS TO DEFER THE PLAT FOR TWO WEEKS PER APPLICANT REQUEST.

MA'AM, CHAIR PLEASE THE COMMISSION.

YOU MAY OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE ITEM AT THIS TIME.

THANK YOU.

THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR ITEM 69 IS OPEN.

I HAVE A SI SPEAKER SIGNED TO SPEAK RUSSELL JACKSON.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

MR. JACKSON.

JACKSON, IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND, UH, STATING YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD.

HI, MY NAME IS RUSSELL JACKSON AND I'M ON THE BOARD OF THE WEST MCGREGOR HOMEOWNER ASSOCIATION, UM, HERE REPRESENTING THAT ORGANIZATION, UH, WHICH REPRESENTS THIS AREA OF RIVERSIDE TOURISTS.

AND WE'VE BEEN ASKED BY RESIDENTS OF THE AREA TO TESTIFY AGAINST ALLOWING THE REPL OF THAT EXISTING 10,000 PLUS SQUARE FOOT, UH, LOT INTO TWO SMALLER LOTS FOR A COUPLE REASONS.

ONE OF 'EM IS THE CHARACTER OF THE, UH, THE CHARACTER OF THE LOTS THAT WOULD BE CREATED.

UH, THE 5,000 SQUARE FOOT LOT WOULD BE CREATED, WOULD BE SMALLER THAN ANY LOT, UH, ON ACOMB BERRY OR IN THE AREA.

WE THINK THAT THAT WILL CHANGE THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD BY CREATING SMALLER LOTS THAN ANY OTHER LOT.

AND THE AVERAGE SIZE OF THE LOTS ON AKIN BERRY ARE OVER 7,000 SQUARE FEET ALREADY.

SO CREATING TWO 5,000 SQUARE FEET LOTS, WE THINK IS OUTTA CHARACTER.

UH, WE'RE CONCERNED THAT THE REPL LOTS, ALTHOUGH THE CURRENT SINGLE LOT IS USED FOR MULTIFAMILY, UH, THE QUESTION IS WHETHER OR NOT THE TWO SINGLE, UH, LOTS THAT WOULD BE CREATED WOULD BE INDEED, UH, LIMITED TO US TO, UH, A SINGLE FAMILY USAGE.

IF IT'S NOT SPECIFICALLY INDICATED IN THE D RESTRICTIONS, WHAT IS THE BASIS BY WHICH, UH, WE COULD BE ASSURED THAT THE USAGE WOULD

[00:10:01]

AND WE ALSO ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE DENSITY BURDEN, ADDITIONAL, UH, CREATION OF, UH, DRAINAGE NEEDS, TRAFFIC NEEDS, FLOODING POTENTIAL.

WE THINK THAT IS A RISKY PROPOSITION, UH, WITH VERY LITTLE BENEFIT TO THE CURRENT NEIGHBORS, UH, IN THAT AREA.

UH, AND FINALLY, THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ATTEMPT TO JUST INCREASE THE HOUSING DENSITY, UH, AND PROFITS, WHICH WERE NOT APPROVED TO PROFITS, BUT TO DO IT AT THE EXPENSE OF THE EXISTING CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH IS PRI PRIMARILY SINGLE FAMILY.

LARGE LOT HOMES WE THINK IS, UH, UH, NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE, OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, AND THE RESIDENTS, LONG-TERM RESIDENTS OF THE AREA AS WELL AS THE, AS WELL AS THE CITY.

SO WE HAVE PROVIDED AS, UH, THE PLANNER SAID, UH, AS WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION OF OUR CONCERNS.

UH, WE HOPE THAT THE COMMISSION WILL, WHEN THIS APPLICATION IS, UH, REVISITED, UH, WE WILL, UH, LIMIT OR, OR, OR NOT ALLOW THAT REPL TO HAPPEN.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

COMMISSIONERS.

ANY QUESTIONS, MR. THE, THE POINT YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING AT IS THE SETBACK, IS THAT CORRECT? NOT THE DIVISION OF THE TWO LOTS, CORRECT? UH, THAT WOULD NOT BE A VIOLATION OF THE FILE D RESTRICTIONS.

IT IS THE BUILDING LINE, PRO BUILDING LINE IS PROPOSED BY THE PLAT AND SO THE APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED REFERRAL TO FIND A WAY TO KIND OF COME TO COMPLIANCE WITH THAT OR IF THEY, UH, YOU, IF YOU WORK THAT OUT WITH LEGAL.

OKAY.

ANYONE HAVE QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER BALDWIN? SO, SO THERE ARE NO SIZE LIMITATIONS ON THE LOTS NOR ANY DESIGNATION FOR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE.

SO, UH, NOT CURRENTLY THE THESE ARE THE, THE BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE EXPIRED, BUT I HAVE TO OVER DEFER TO LEGAL TO GET CONFIRMATION.

OKAY.

BUT I MEAN, THERE ARE EXISTING BUILDING LINE RESTRICTIONS, SO THOSE ARE ACTIVE.

SO I WOULD IMAGINE IF THERE WERE SINGLE FAMILY, THOSE WOULD BE PART OF THOSE RESTRICTIONS.

UM, THE ONLY VIOLATION WAS THE SETBACK VIOLATION.

THANK YOU.

UH, I DO HAVE A QUESTION.

YES.

COMMISSIONER HINES AND, UH, COUNSEL, UH, ARE THE DEED EX, UM, ARE THE DEED RESTRICTIONS EXPIRED? NO.

THERE ARE STILL ENFORCEABLE DEED RESTRICTIONS AS TO THE SETBACKS.

THANK YOU.

ANYONE ELSE? I HAVE A QUESTION ON DENSITY IF, UM, IT DOESN'T LIMIT ANY, UH, SORT OF DENSITY HERE.

SO ANYONE CAN BUILD WHATEVER SIZE MULTIFAMILY ON THIS LOT.

THERE IS NO DENSITY REQUIREMENT FOR THIS LOT AS SUCH, THIS WILL BE DEFINED AS A SINGLE FAMILY LOT, WHICH MEANS THE MOST THAT CAN BE DONE WOULD BE TO, UH, DWELLING SUCH AS A DUPLEX OR A HOME AND A SEPARATE, UH, ADJACENT GARAGE, UH, APARTMENT.

YEAH.

ANYONE ELSE? OKAY.

SO I WILL CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE HAVE A RECOMMENDATION OF DEFERRAL.

DO I HAVE A MOTION? MOTION TO DEFER GARZA.

MOTION GARZA.

SECOND BALLARD.

ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.

OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU.

THE PURPOSE OF THE REPL IS TO CREATE FIVE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LOTS ALONG AN 18 FOOT SHARED DRIVEWAY.

THERE ARE NO VARIANCE REQUESTED WITH THIS ITEM AND THE APPLICANT HAS MET ALL NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS.

REVIEW BY LEGAL INDICATES THAT THIS PLAT WILL NOT VIOLATE RESTRICTIONS ON THE FACE OF THE PLAT OR THOSE FILED SEPARATELY.

WE HAVE RECEIVED A HANDFUL OF OPPOSITION FROM RESIDENTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD REGARDING DEED RESTRICTIONS.

STATUTE RECOMMENDATION IS TO APPROVE THE PLAT SUBJECT TO CPC 1 0 1 FORM CONDITIONS.

MADAM CHAIR, IF IT PLEASES THE COMMISSION, YOU MAY OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS ITEM AT THIS TIME.

THANK YOU.

THE PUBLIC HEARING IS OPEN FOR ITEM 71.

[00:15:02]

OUR FIRST SPEAKER IS JOE POWERS.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

MY NAME'S JOE POWERS.

I'M THE CHAIR OF THE NORWOOD VILLAGE, UH, ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL COMMITTEE AND I'M SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF MYSELF, MY COMMITTEE, AND MANY OF OUR NEIGHBORS WHO OPPOSE THIS REPL.

THE CORE ISSUE I THINK IS FAIRLY SIMPLE.

THE PROPOSED REPL DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE DEED RESTRICTIONS OF FOR NORWOOD VILLAGE.

SECTION EIGHT, DEED RESTRICTION NUMBER THREE CLEARLY REQUIRES THAT EVERY RESIDENTIAL LOT BE AT LEAST 6,000 SQUARE FEET, 60 FEET WIDE AT THE FRONT SETBACK AS SHOWN IN THE ORIGINAL 1953 PLOT.

THESE ORIGINAL LOTS, THOSE ORIGINAL LOTS, ALL EXCEEDED 6,000 SQUARE FEET EXCLUDING STREET ACCESS.

THIS, THE REPL ATTEMPTS TO MEET THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE BY COUNTING THE SHARED DRIVEWAY AS PART OF EACH LOT SQUARE FOOTAGE THAT DRIVEWAY FUNCTIONS OF THE STREET LOOKS LIKE A STREET AND SHARING A PORTION OF EACH LOT SQUARE FOOT WITH IT IS ENTIRELY OUTTA CHARACTER WITH THE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD.

MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE STREET HAS NEVER BEEN CONSIDERED PART OF A BILLABLE LOT UNDER THE DEED RESTRICTIONS FOR ANY OTHER PART OF OUR, OUR THAT SECTION.

IF SOMEONE SIMPLY DIVIDE, TRIED TO DIVIDE ONE SECTION EIGHT LOT INTO TWO, THE NON-COMPLIANCE WOULD BE OBVIOUS.

SINCE THERE ARE NO 120 FOOT WIDE, 12,000 SQUARE FOOT LOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THAT REPL WOULD BE JE REJECTED IMMEDIATELY.

THE DE RESTRICTIONS DON'T CHANGE JUST BECAUSE THE APPLICANT HAS WRAPPED THE SAME VIOLATION IN A MORE COMPLICATED LAYOUT, REMOVE THE PRIVATE DRIVEWAY OR TREAT IT AS A STREET.

IT EFFECTIVELY IS AND THE UNDERLYING LOTS FALL WELL SHORT OF THE REQUIRED SIZE.

THE RE PLAT DOES NOT MEET THE, THESE RESTRICTIONS OF SECTION EIGHT REGARDLESS OF HOW THE LIVE DRIVEWAY IS LABELED.

FOR THESE REASONS, I RESPECTFULLY ASK THE COMMISSION TO DENY THE PROPOSED PLAT RELA.

THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS.

ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS, UH, DAVID FELDMAN.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

MY NAME IS DAVID FELDMAN.

I LIVE AT 28 10 CONWAY STREET.

THIS IS THE HOME WHERE I GREW UP, WHERE MY PARENTS LIVED FOR MORE THAN 50 YEARS AND WHERE MY WIFE AND I LIVED TODAY.

OTHERS HAVE SPOKEN ABOUT THE DEED RESTRICTIONS AND COMPLIANCE ISSUES, WHICH I THINK ARE COMPELLING ENOUGH SURROUNDING THIS APPLICATION, I WOULD SIMPLY LIKE TO OFFER A MORE PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE.

THE PROPOSED RELA IS IMMEDIATELY BEHIND MY HOME ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MY BACK FENCE AND WOULD DIRECTLY AFFECT MY PROPERTY MORE THAN ANY OTHERS.

THESE LOTS ARE LITERALLY THE ONLY SPACE BETWEEN MY BACKYARD AND BRAISED BAYOU.

MY HOME IS ALREADY FLOODED TWICE AND ADDING MORE CONCRETE AND ADDITIONAL MULTIPLE HOMES BETWEEN US AND THE BAYOU ONLY INCREASES THE CONCERN AND RISK FOR FUTURE FLOODING.

IF THIS REPL IS APPROVED, I WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS HIGHER DENSITY DEVELOPMENT EVERY DAY FROM MY BACK WINDOWS AND FROM MY BACKYARD.

IT WOULD PERMANENTLY CHANGE MY HOME.

MY FAMILY HAVE LIVED IN ACROSS GENERATIONS AND EROS THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT HAS BEEN NEARLY EXCLUSIVELY DEFINED BY ONE HOME ON ONE LOT.

I RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT THIS APPLICATION BE JUDGED ON THE LONG-TERM IMPACT IT WILL HAVE ON THE SURROUNDING HOMEOWNERS AND THE CHARACTER OF OUR COMMUNITY.

FOR THESE REASONS, I RESPECTFULLY ASK TO DENY THIS REPL APPLICATION.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR COMMENTS WITH US.

MR. FELDMAN.

I HAVE NO ONE ELSE SIGNED TO SPEAK.

IS THERE ANYONE THAT WISHES TO OKAY.

HEARING NONE, I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

UH, COMMISSIONERS, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE TAKE A MOTION? I DO, YES.

COMMISSIONER GARZA.

SO, UM, AGAIN, THERE'S SOME DISCUSSION HERE ABOUT DEED RESTRICTIONS.

UM, COULD COULD YOU GIVE US MORE DETAIL, MR. CALHOUN, ABOUT WHAT IS AND WHAT ISN'T? IN OTHER WORDS, DO THESE MEET DEED RESTRICTIONS, DO THEY NOT? AND IF NOT, WHY NOT? UH, I REFER TO LEGAL ON THAT ONE.

I WAS GONNA SAY YES.

UM, AS I UNDERSTAND THE, THE WRITTEN COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN PROVIDED AND, AND THE STATEMENT FROM THE SPEAKERS TODAY, UM, THERE'S CONCERN THAT THE LOTS DO NOT COMPLY WITH THE 6,000 SQUARE FOOT MINIMUM LOT SIZE REQUIREMENT OR THE 60 FOOT FRONTAGE REQUIREMENT.

HOWEVER, YOU CAN SEE ON THE FACE OF THE PLAT THAT THEY DO, SO THEY DO MEET DEED RESTRICTIONS.

THEY DO MEET DEED RESTRICTIONS.

YES.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY.

I NEED A MOTION FOR STAFF RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE THE PLAT SUBJECT TO THE CONDITIONS LISTED.

GOOD AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR, MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

MY NAME IS TAMMY WILLIAMSON.

ITEM 80 IS BRIDGELAND CREEK LANE VILLAGE GP.

THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A 2000 ACRE GENERAL PLAN AND REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO ALLOW MORE THAN 150 LOTS TO HAVE A SINGLE POINT OF ACCESS.

STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO DEFER THE APPLICATION FOR TWO WEEKS TO ALLOW FURTHER TIME FOR COORDINATION BETWEEN THE COUNTY AND THE APPLICANT.

AS THIS WILL BE THE SECOND DEFERRAL.

STAFF WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A BRIEF PRESENTATION PLEASE.

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING TO BE ALLOWED TO RECORD SECTIONS 23 AND 24, WHICH COMBINED WITH THE OTHER RECORDED SECTIONS THERE WILL BE 509 LOTS THAT ONLY ACCESS STARGAZING TRAIL NORTH TO JACK ROAD INSTEAD OF BEING REQUIRED TO RECORD PEAK ROAD, WHICH WOULD PROVIDE THE REQUIRED SECOND POINT OF ACCESS.

THE PEAK ROAD STREET DEDICATION PLAT IS APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION BUT PER THE APPLICANT HAS MORE COMPLICATED PERMITTING REQUIREMENTS, WHICH IS DELAYING THE READINESS OF ITS RECORDATION.

THE COMPROMISE PUT FORWARD BY THE APPLICANT IS TO ALLOW THE SECTION PLATS TO BE RECORDED BUT TO HAVE HARRIS COUNTY PERMITTING PLACE A HOLD ONLY ALLOWING 150 LOTS TO BE PERMITTED UNTIL THAT THIS SECTION OF PEAK ROAD IS PROVIDED.

HARRIS COUNTY ENGINEERING HAS BEEN WORKING TO DETERMINE IF THIS PROPOSED COMPROMISE IS POSSIBLE AND DESIRED AND HAS BEEN COORDINATING WITH THE APPLICANT ABOUT POSSIBLE CONDITIONS.

ADDITIONAL TIME IS REQUESTED TO SEE IF A FINAL SOLUTION IS REACHABLE BY ALL PARTIES THAT WILL STILL PROVIDE FOR SAFE DEVELOPMENT.

THEREFORE STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION IS TO DEFER THE APPLICATION.

AND THIS CONCLUDES STAFF'S PRESENTATION.

THANK YOU.

I DON'T HAVE ANYONE SIGNED TO SPEAK ON ITEM 80.

IS THERE ANYONE THAT WISHES TO MADAM CHAIR? YES.

[00:40:01]

UM, BUT FOR THE REST OF THAT AND KIND OF CONDITIONS AND WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT, I WOULD DEFER TO HARRIS COUNTY.

GOOD AFTERNOON, MADAM CHAIR, MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

MY NAME IS MATT TANGAN.

SO I BELIEVE YOUR QUESTION WAS WHO WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BUILDING? UH, THAT WOULD BE THE DEVELOPER AND THEN LIKE, UH, MS. WILLIAMSON SAID THEIR TARGET RIGHT NOW IS TOWARDS THE END OF 2027.

DEBIT CONSTRUCTED.

THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY.

I HAVE NO ONE ELSE SIGNED TO SPEAK, SO I WILL CONTINUE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND YEAH, WE'RE OUT.

MOVING ON TO ITEM 81.

GOOD AFTERNOON, MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSTON PLANNING COMMISSION.

MY NAME IS DEVIN CRIDDLE.

ITEM 81 IS FRANZ RESERVES.

UH, THE SITE IS LOCATED IN NORTHWEST, EXCUSE ME.

THE SITE IS LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST INTERSECTION OF FRANZ ROAD IN THE GRAND PARKWAY AND HOUSTON'S ETJF HARRIS COUNTY.

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO EXCEED INTERSECTION SPACING ALONG THE GRAND PARKWAY BY NOT PROVIDING A EAST WEST STREET THROUGH THE TRACK AND A SPECIAL EXCEPTION TO ALLOW MINIMUM INTERSECTION SPACING ALONG FRANZ ROAD STAFF IS IN SUPPORT OF BOTH REQUESTS.

THE APPLICANT'S PROPOSING THREE UNRESTRICTED RESERVES FOR FUTURE COMMERCIAL AND LIGHT INDUSTRIAL USE.

THE APPLICANT IS DEDICATING A 70 FOOT PEAK, EXCUSE ME, THE APPLICANT IS DEDICATING THE 70 FOOT WIDE PEAK RIDGE ROAD COLLECTOR STREET AS SHOWN ON THE MAJOR AIRFARE FREEWAY PLAN.

THE SITE IS THE REPL OF THE FORBIDDEN GARDEN SUBDIVISION FIRST RECORDED IN 1994.

THAT DEVELOPMENT CONSISTED OF A RESERVE RESTRICTED TO MUSEUM AND TO NON-RESIDENTIAL RESERVES.

AT THE TIME, THE PLANET COMMISSION GRANTED A VARIANCE TO EXCEED INTERSECTION SPACING BY NOT PROVIDING THE EAST WEST STREET.

SINCE, SINCE THE LAND USE IS CHANGING, THE APPLICANT MUST READDRESS THE VARIANCE INTERSECTION SPACING ALONG GRAND PARKWAY IS ROUGHLY 3,800 FEET AND EXTENDING THE EAST WEST STREET THROUGH THE TRACK WILL NOT DRASTICALLY ENHANCE TRAFFIC CIRCULATION FOR THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENTS.

IN ADDITION, THE EXISTING SUBDIVISION TO THE WEST HAS MULTIPLE ACCESS POINTS TO FRANZ ROAD.

ALSO, THE GRAND PARKWAY IS A CONTROLLED HIGHWAY THAT DOES NOT ALLOW A STREET CROSSING UNTIL YOU GET TO THE SOUTHERN INTERSECTION OF FRAN ROAD.

HARRIS COUNTY ENGINEER'S OFFICE HAS VOICED NO OBJECTION TO THIS REQUEST AND STAFF RECOMMENDS GRANTED THE REQUEST OF VARIANCE IN APPROVING THE PLAT SUBJECT TO THE CCP CPC 1 0 1 FORM CONDITIONS.

THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

THANK YOU.

APPRECIATE THAT.

THE GENERAL PLAN AND DETENTION RESERVE ARE 1100 ACRES AND 14 ACRES RESPECTIVELY LOCATED IN THE HARRIS COUNTY, EXTRA TERRITORIAL JURISDICTION EAST ALONG 99 GRAND PARKWAY AND SOUTH OF WEST ROAD.

THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A GENERAL PLAN INTENDED FOR SINGLE-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT ALONG WITH AMENITIES AND DRAINAGE AND DETENTION.

THEY ARE REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO NOT EXTEND NOR TERMINATE WITH A CUL-DE-SAC STOCK DICK SCHOOL ROAD ALONG ITS WESTERN BOUNDARY.

THE EASTERN HALF OF THE RIGHT OF WAY STUBS INTO THE GENERAL PLANS BOUNDARY WHILE THE WESTERN HALF STUBS INTO PRIVATELY OWNED LOTS SHOWN IN YELLOW STOCK.

DICK SCHOOL ROAD CURRENTLY EXISTS AS A DIRT TRAIL THAT GIVES MAINTENANCE ACCESS TO THE PIPELINE AND CENTER POINT POWER LINE CORRIDOR THAT INTERSECT THE RIGHT OF WAY IS SAH HARRIS COUNTY ENGINEERING HAS NO OBJECTION TO THE VARIANCE.

SO STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS TO GRANT THE REQUEST OF VARIANCE AND APPROVE THE PLA SUBJECT TO CCP C 1 0 1 FORM CONDITIONS.
