of Parvin Road and 2,070± feet east of FM 1385. (ZONE-24-0022) (DH)
Mr. Hill presented the item noting the proposed zoning case requires an amendment to
the Future Land Use Plan from Medium Density Residential to High Density Residential
if approved. The intent of the request is to construct a maximum of 800 single-family
homes. On the eastern tract of the property, would consist of 275 single-family homes,
and on the western tract of the property, the intent is to construct a maximum of 525
age -restricted single-family homes for residents 55 years of age and older. Mr. Hill
outlined the district regulations, the permitted uses by right and by Specific Use Permit,
and potential open space and amenities within each tract. The Planning and Zoning
Commission unanimously recommended denial at their August 5 meeting. Their
concerns were with the age -restricted single-family residential section specific to the
overall density being too high, the Type E Lots being too small, and the lack of
connectivity from the southern portion to the amenity center. The Town did receive two
letters of support regarding the item. Staff recommends approval.
