ISSUE:
Copper Ridge Subdivision is located on SH 46 West, approximately 1.5 miles outside the city limits in the ETJ. The North Addition of the subdivision was platted in 2018.
The purpose of this replat is to add approximately 4 acres of unplatted land to Lot 51, creating a single 5.376-acre residential lot.
Drainage:
The Public Works Department reviewed project drainage with the Letter of Certification process as required by Section 118-51e of the Platting Ordinance and in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 143 Municipal Drainage Utility Systems, and the Drainage and Erosion Control and Design Manual.
A small portion of this property is located within the 1% annual chance flood zone, along the Dry Comal Creek.
Utilities:
Electric service is provided by New Braunfels Utilities (NBU). Proposed Lot 51R will be served by private on-site septic and private water well, as allowed by Comal County for lots at least 5.01 acres in size.
Transportation Plan:
The plat is in compliance with the City's Regional Transportation Plan as there are no proposed new streets within or adjacent to the subject property.
Hike and Bike:
The City's Hike and Bike Trail Plan indicates an off-street trail along Dry Comal Creek, which is adjacent to the subject property. However, this portion of the proposed trail is not accessible from any public land or right-of-way. If the City is unable to accept and maintain a trail, the developer is not required to construct it.
Sidewalks:
Copper Ridge has rural residential street sections and minimum one-acre lots with at least 100 feet of street frontage; therefore, sidewalks are not required.
Roadway Impact Fees:
This subdivision is located outside of the Roadway Impact Fee Study Area and fees are not applicable.
Parkland Dedication and Development:
Parkland and amenities provided by the Copper Ridge development have been reviewed by Parks and Recreation Department staff and determined to meet the ordinance requirements. No additional park fees are applicable.
FISCAL IMPACT:

5. Draw a box around the existing lot configuration, label it "Area Being Replatted", and make it smaller for clarity of purpose. (NBCO 118-34)
6. Enlarge the Detail Drawing so the easement is legible. (NBCO 118-24)

Approval Compliance:
