The Navarro Unit 3B Subdivision is a single-family residential development located on the south side of FM 758 and west side of SH 123, east of the city, within the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). The approved master plan for the Navarro Subdivision consists of a total of 8 units/phases, 324.27-acres, and a total of 1,448 residential lots.
ISSUE:
This final plat is approximately 23 acres and proposes the establishment of 67 residential lots, dedication of rights-of-way, and common area lots for the purpose of drainage.
Drainage:
The Public Works Department reviewed project drainage with the approved construction documents as required by Section 118-51(e)r of the Platting Ordinance and in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 143 Municipal Drainage Utility Systems and the Drainage and Erosion Control Design Manual. Drainage improvements will be constructed at the time of subdivision construction.
Utilities:
Water will be provided by Crystal Clear SUD and wastewater will be provided by the City of Sequin. 15-foot wide and 20-foot wide public utility easements are being dedicated along street frontages. Utilities will be extended as part of this plat in accordance with the approved construction plans.
Transportation Plan:
The proposed plat is in compliance with the City’s Regional Transportation Plan (RTP)and the approved Master Plan.
All streets being dedicated and constructed will be local streets and are proposed to be 50-feet wide rights-of-way. Street names have been approved by Guadalupe County and are indicated on the plat.
Hike and Bike:
This proposed plat is in compliance with the City’s Hike and Bike Trails Plan. No hike or bike trails are required to be dedicated with this final plat.
Sidewalks
Four (4) foot wide sidewalks will be constructed by the developer per city standards at the time of street construction along all frontages abutting common area lots. Four (4) foot wide sidewalks will be constructed by the home builder per city standards at the time of building construction along all other street frontages.
Roadway Impact Fees:
The subdivision is located entirely within the City’s ETJ. Therefore, no roadway impact fees will be required.
Parkland Dedication and Development:
This final plat is subject to the 2018 Parkland Dedication and Development Ordinance. Per the approved Master Plan for this subdivision, land has been set aside for a private park, as required by the ordinance. The developer intends to construct park improvements on the private park to be used as credit toward park land ordinance requirements. As fiscal surety, the developer is required to pay parkland dedication and development fees for the proposed single-family residential dwelling units prior to plat recordation. With the development of up to 67 single-family residential dwelling units, park fees in the amount of $150,482 are required to be paid prior to plat recordation.
