Description:                                          39 residential lots on 12.85 acres

 

Background:

The subject property is located on Conrads Lane, between FM 1102 (Hunter Road) and Goodwin Lane. A subdivision master plan was approved in 2006 and several units have been constructed. The preliminary plat for Unit 8 includes 39 buildable residential lots and two common area lots to be owned and maintained by the homeowners association.

 

This plat proposes some revisions to street and lot layout from the approved master plan. The applicant will submit a revised master plan for approval prior to final plat submission.

 

Drainage:

The Public Works Department reviewed the preliminary drainage report as required by Section 118-51e of the Platting Ordinance in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 143 Municipal Drainage Utility Systems, and the Drainage and Erosion Control and Design Manual. Detailed drainage review will occur with the construction plans prior to final plat submission. No portion of the subject property is within the 100-year floodplain.

 

Utilities:

Electric, water and wastewater services will be provided by New Braunfels Utilities. Utility Easements have been provided as requested. Utility service is existing for this subdivision and no public main line extension is required.

 

Transportation:

Regional Transportation Plan:

The plat is in compliance with the Regional Transportation Plan. The existing right-of-way width on Conrads Lane varies and is approximately 47 feet at this location. An additional  ten feet of right-of-way is indicated on the preliminary plat. Right-of-way for Conrads Lane will be dedicated with the final plat.

 

Hike and Bike:

The applicant is not proposing any trails and there are no trails identified on the City’s Hike and Bike Trails Plan within or adjacent to the subject site. Therefore, the proposed plat is in compliance with the Plan.

 

Sidewalks:

Four-foot wide sidewalks will be constructed by the developer or home builder along all internal streets within the subdivision.

 

Roadway Impact Fees:

The subject property will be assessed Roadway Impact Fees for Service Area 3 with approval of the final plat. Impact Fees are collected at time of building permit as indicated in the then current fee schedule for the intended use.

 

Parkland Dedication and Development:

This subdivision is subject to the 2006 Parkland Dedication and Development Ordinance. Dedication and development requirements have been met for 546 residential lots approved with the master plan. If the total number of residential lots platted exceeds 546, the developer will comply with the ordinance for each additional dwelling unit by payment of in-lieu fees.

 

Staff Recommendation:

Staff recommends approval of the applicant’s proposed preliminary plat, with the following conditions to meet the City’s Platting Ordinance and other adopted codes.

1.                     Move construction of the sidewalk along Hurricane Trl from Note 11B to Note 10D (at time of street construction) as Lot 7 Unit 3 is already developed.

2.                     Add Note 10D: Gray Cloud Dr - along Lot 107 Block 10

3.                     Add Gray Cloud Dr to Note 11A (along Lot 1 Block 11)

4.                     Provide a temporary turnaround at Twin Dish Way.

5.                     Record the referenced utility easements by separate document and add recording information to the final plat.

6.                     Correct Lot 111 to Lot 107 in Note 17.

7.                     Submit a revised master plan incorporating the proposed street and lot layout for approval prior to submitting a final plat for Unit 8.
