by the City on February 12, 2019 3pm and February 12, 2019 6pm in accordance with Section
43.056(j) of the LGC.
II. TERM OF SERVICE PLAN
Pursuant to Section 43.056(l) of the LGC, this Plan shall be in effect for a ten-year period

III. INTENT
It is the intent of the City that municipal services under this Plan shall provide municipal
services in accordance with the timetables required by the LGC. The City reserves the rights
guaranteed to it by the LGC to amend this Plan if the City Council determines that changed
conditions, subsequent occurrences, or any other legally sufficient circumstances exist under the
LGC or other Texas laws that make this Plan unworkable, obsolete, or unlawful.
IV. CATEGORIZATION OF MUNICIPAL SERVICES

service organizations to provide such services by contract, in whole or in part, and may include
duties on the part of a private landowner with regard to such services.
In addition, in accordance with Section 43.056(g) of the LGC, if before annexation the annexed
area had a lower level of services, infrastructure, and infrastructure maintenance than the same
being provided by the City to other areas within the City limits, this Plan shall be construed to
allow for the provision to the annexed area of a level of services, infrastructure, and
infrastructure maintenance that is comparable to the level of services, infrastructure, and
infrastructure maintenance in other parts of the City with topography, land use, and population
density similar to those reasonably contemplated or projected in the annexed area.

for providing municipal services for the annexation area as necessary for services that
are provided directly by the City.
2. Water and Wastewater Services– Water and wastewater services are only provided to
occupied lots that have been legally subdivided and platted or are otherwise a legal lot,
and that are located within the boundaries of the City’s authorized service areas.
Further, existing residences in the annexed area that were served by a functioning onsite
sewer system (septic system) shall continue to use such private system for wastewater
services in conformance with the provisions of Section 13.20 of the City Code of
Ordinances. Existing non-residential establishments in the annexed area may continue
to use an onsite sewer system (septic system) for sewage disposal in conformance with
the provisions of Section 13.20 of the City Code of Ordinances. Upon the Development
of any property in the annexed area, the provisions of Chapter 13 of the UDC shall

Page 16 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 5 of 13
Area: Shell Road Development
of water and wastewater services will be provided in accordance with the policies
summarized in Section X of this Plan and with any applicable construction and design
standards manuals adopted by the City.
3. Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements Schedule – Because of the time required
to design and construct the necessary water and wastewater facilities to serve the
annexed area, certain services cannot be reasonably provided within 2½ years of the
effective date of annexation. Therefore, in accordance with Sections 43.065(b) and (e) of
the LGC, the City shall implement a program, which will be initiated after the effective
date of the annexation and include the acquisition or construction of capital
improvements necessary for providing water and wastewater services to the area. The
following schedule for improvements is proposed: construction will commence within 2
½ years from the effective date of annexation and will be substantially complete within 4
½ years from the effective date of annexation. However, the provisions of Section VII of
this Plan shall apply to the schedule for completion of all capital improvements. In
addition, the acquisition or construction of the improvements shall be accomplished by
purchase, lease, or other contract or by the City succeeding to the powers, duties, assets,
and obligations of a conservation and reclamation district as authorized or required by
law.
4. Roads and Streets – No road or street related capital improvements are necessary at this
time. Future extension of roads or streets and installation of traffic control devices will
be governed by the City’s Comprehensive Plan, the City’s Overall Transportation Plan,
the City’s Capital Improvements Plan; the City’s regular or non-impact fee Capital
Improvements Program, and any applicable City ordinances, policies, and procedures,
which may require that the property owner or developer install roads and streets at the
property owner’s or developer’s expense. It is anticipated that the developer of new
subdivisions in the area will install street lighting in accordance with the City’s standard
policies and procedures. Provision of street lighting will be in accordance with the
City’s street lighting policies.
5. Capital Improvements for Other Municipal Services – No capital improvements are
necessary at this time to provide municipal Police; Fire Protection; Emergency Medical
Services; Solid Waste Collection; Public Parks, Playgrounds, or Swimming Pools; Public
Buildings or Facilities; or Library Services. The annexed area will be included in the
City’s future planning for new or expanded capital improvements and evaluated on the
same basis and in accordance with the same standards as similarly situated areas of the
City.

of nature including landslides, lightening, earthquakes, fires, storms, floods, washouts,
droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes; arrest and restraint of government; explosions;
collisions, and all other inabilities of the City, whether similar to those enumerated or
otherwise, which are not within the control of the City. Any deadlines or other
provisions of this Plan that are affected by a Force Majeure Event shall be automatically
extended to account for delays caused by such Force Majeure Event.
2. In accordance with Section 43.056(e) of the LGC, this Plan and the schedules for capital
improvements necessary to provide full municipal services to the annexed area may be
amended by the City to extend the period for construction if the construction is
proceeding with all deliberate speed. The construction of the improvements shall be
accomplished in a continuous process and shall be completed as soon as reasonably
possible, consistent with generally accepted local engineering and architectural
standards and practices. However, the City does not violate this Plan if the construction
process is interrupted for any reason by circumstances beyond the direct control of the
City.
VIII. AMENDMENTS
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 43.056(k) of the LGC, on approval by the City Council, the
Plan is a contractual obligation that is not subject to amendment or repeal except as provided by
state law. Section 43.056(k) of the LGC provides that if the City Council determines, after public
hearings, that changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make the Plan unworkable or
obsolete, the City Council may amend the Plan to conform to the changed conditions or
subsequent occurrences. An amended Plan must provide for services that are comparable to or
better than those established in the Plan before amendment. Before any Plan amendments are
adopted, the City Council must provide an opportunity for interested persons to be heard at
public hearings called and held in the manner provided by Section 43.0561 of the LGC.
IX. FEES
The City may impose a fee for any municipal service in the area annexed if the same type of fee
is imposed within the corporate boundaries of the City. All City fees are subject to revision
from time to time by the City in its sole discretion.
X. SUMMARY OF CURRENT WATER AND WASTEWATER SERVICE EXTENSION POLICIES
Per the requirements of Section 43.056(e) of the LGC, the following summary is provided
regarding the City’s current service extension policies for water and wastewater service.
However, this is a summary of the current policies, and the policies and regulations related to
water and wastewater utility extensions that are included in the City Code of Ordinances, the
Unified Development Code, the City’s Construction and Specifications Manual; Drainage
Page 18 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 7 of 13
Area: Shell Road Development
Manual, and other published policies and technical manuals, as the same may be amended from
time to time, shall control the extension of water and wastewater services to the annexed area.
In addition, these policies and ordinances are set by City Council and can be amended in the
future:
1. In General -- The provisions of Chapter 13 of the City’s Unified Development Code
(“UDC”) shall apply in the annexed area and Chapter 13 of the City Code of Ordinances.
Portions of the current Chapter 13 of the UDC and the current Chapter 13 of the Code of
Ordinances are summarized below. Note that these provisions are established by
ordinance of the City Council and are subject to change from time to time.
A. The City shall not repair, maintain, install or provide any water services,
wastewater service, gas, electricity or any other public utilities or services to any
property that has not been legally subdivided or is a non-legal lot.
B. For property that is required by the City’s UDC or other City regulations to
construct water or wastewater facilities, funding and construction of those
facilities are the responsibility of the property owner or developer (the
“subdivider”).
C. Subdividers shall be responsible for providing an approved public water supply
system for fire protection and domestic/ commercial/ industrial usage consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan. Where an approved public water supply or
distribution main is within reasonable distance of the subdivision, but in no case
less than one-quarter mile away, and connection to the system is both possible
and permissible (including adequate system capacity), the subdivider shall be
required to bear the cost of connecting the subdivision to such existing water
supply. The subdivider shall, consistent with all existing ordinances, make a pro-
rata contribution to funding of needed storage facilities, treatment facilities, and
specific distribution lines as determined necessary by the City.
D. Subdividers shall be responsible for providing an approved public sanitary
sewer system, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, throughout the entire
subdivision such that all lots, parcels, or tracts of land will be capable of
connecting to the sanitary sewer system except as otherwise provided herein.
Where an approved public sanitary sewer collection main or outfall line is in no
case less than one-half mile away, and connection to the system is both possible
and permissible (including adequate system capacity), the subdivider shall be
required to bear the cost of connecting the subdivision to such existing sanitary
sewer system. Where an approved public wastewater collection main or outfall
line is more than one-half mile away from the property boundary, and where
extension of a sanitary sewer collection main or outfall line is scheduled in the
City’s Capital Improvements Plan to be completed to a point within one-half
mile of the property boundary within five (5) years from the date of the
Preliminary Plat approval, the subdivider shall be required to install a public
Page 19 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 8 of 13
Area: Shell Road Development
wastewater collection system. The design and construction of a public sanitary
sewer system shall comply with regulations covering extension of public sanitary
sewer systems adopted by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
E. All infrastructure and public improvements must be designed and installed in
accordance with all of the elements of the Comprehensive Plan and shall meet
the minimum requirements established by the UDC, the City's Construction
Standards and Specifications for Roads, Streets, Structures and Utilities, and any
other adopted City design or technical criteria. No main water line extension
shall be less than eight inches. All new public sanitary sewer systems shall be
designed and constructed to conform with the City’s Construction Standards and
Specifications and to operate on a gravity flow basis by taking advantage of
natural topographic conditions and thereby reducing the need for lift stations
and force mains.
2. If the specific undeveloped property does not have City water or wastewater facilities
and capacity fronting the property – the owner may make an application for an
extension of service to the property. If the Assistant City Manager for Utilities
determines in writing that adequate water or wastewater capacity is available, or will be
available, and if the project does not include City cost participation or reimbursement, if
the proposed facilities are depicted on the City’s Water and Wastewater Master Plans,
and the requested service otherwise meets the City’s requirements, the extension size,
capacity, and routing may be approved by the Assistant City Manager for Utilities for
construction by the developer at the developer’s cost and expense.
3. If the specific undeveloped property does have adequate City water or wastewater
facilities and capacity fronting the property – the owner may receive water or
wastewater service from the City by applying for a tap permit and paying the required
fees.
4. If any property in the annexed area is using a septic system – the property owner
remains responsible for the operation and maintenance of the septic system. If the
property is in a Rural Residential Subdivision as defined in Chapter 13 of the UDC, or is
a legal lot greater than one acre in size and used for single family residential purposes,
the property shall continue the use of a septic system after annexation until such time
that the use of the property changes, the property is further subdivided or developed, or
a public sanitary sewer line has been extended to within 200 feet of the property
boundary and the property owner has received notification from the City of the City’s
desire for the property to be connected to the public sanitary sewer line. If the septic
system fails before the City’s centralized wastewater service is extended to within 200
feet of the property and the City determines that the provision of centralized wastewater
service is not feasible or practical at that time, then the property owner must either
repair or replace the septic system in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.20 of
the City Code of Ordinances. Properties using a septic system that are not in a Rural
Residential Subdivision , or are not legal lots greater than one acre in size and used for
Page 20 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 9 of 13
Area: Shell Road Development
single family residential purposes at the time of annexation, but that are designated as
either residential, open space or agricultural on the City’s Future Land Use Plan shall
continue the use of a septic system until such time that the use of the property changes,
the property is further subdivided or developed, or a public sanitary sewer line has been
extended to within 200 feet of the property boundary and the property owner has
received notification from the City of the City’s desire for the property to be connected
to the public sanitary sewer line.
5. Reimbursement and cost participation by the City – Pursuant to Section 13.09.030 of
the UDC, the City, in its sole discretion and with City Council approval, may participate
with a property owner or developer in the cost of oversized facilities or line extensions.
The actual calculation of the cost participation and reimbursement amounts, including
limits and schedules for the payments, are set forth in the UDC.
6. City Code of Ordinances: (The following provisions are set by the City Council and can
be amended in the future by ordinance.)
Chapter 13.10 of the City Code of Ordinances currently provides as follows:
Section 13.10.010 Policy established.
This policy shall apply to improvements to the City's utility systems, including system upgrades,
system expansion, and plant capacity additions. In this Section, the term “utility system” shall
mean the City’s water system, wastewater system, reuse irrigation system, and stormwater
drainage system.
Section 13.10.020 System Planning.
The City shall maintain and periodically update system plans for each utility so that system
improvements are implemented to maintain adequate capacity for growth while maintaining
proper service levels to existing customers.
Section 13.10.030 Project Timing.
A. Projects designed to expand or upgrade a utility system must be completed and
ready for operations such that capacity requirements by state regulatory agencies and City
system plans are met.
B. When possible, the City should coordinate the construction of system
improvements in a particular location with the expansion or maintenance of other utility
infrastructure to minimize the future impact on each utility.
C. Projects should begin the design phase when existing demand at a specific
location exceeds 75% of current capacity and future demand is expected to exceed the
current total capacity.
Page 21 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 10 of 13
Area: Shell Road Development
D. Projects should begin the construction phase when existing demand at a specific
location exceeds 90% of current capacity and future demand is expected to exceed the
current total capacity.
E. Projects required to facilitate the development of a specific tract shall be done in
accordance with the Unified Development Code.
F. Projects required as a result of an annexation service plan shall be provided as
stated in the approved Service Plan for such annexed tracts.
Section 13.10.040 Project Financing.
A. Projects required to facilitate the subdivision of a specific tract shall be paid by
the subdivider in accordance with the Unified Development Code, unless otherwise
authorized in writing and approved by the City Council in accordance with the terms of
Section 13.09 of the Unified Development Code or other applicable law.
B. When utility expansion is requested within a portion of the City’s utility service
area, but the City is not otherwise required to provide service or planning to provide
service as reflected in the City’s Capital Improvements Plan, the City may nonetheless, at
the City’s sole option, facilitate the design and construction of the required utility
extensions or upgrades by managing the project with the cost of such extensions to be
shared and fully paid by the requesting landowners or subdividers prior to
commencement of the project.
C. When utility expansion is requested within a portion of the City’s utility service
area, the City shall evaluate degree to which the project 1) facilitates contiguous growth,
2) maximizes the provision of service to the service area, 3) enhances economic
development, 4) improves system operations, 5) contributes to conservation or other
environmental concern, and 6) facilitates the completion of the utility master plan.
D. At the City’s sole option, the City may also facilitate the installation of utility
expansion requests through 1) financial cost contribution, 2) financing of the
improvement using individual contracts between the City and each landowner for a
proportionate share of the project cost to be paid out over a specified period of time at a
specified rate of interest, 3) Impact Fee or connection fee reduction or waiver.
Chapter 13.20 of the City Code of Ordinances currently provides as follows:
Sec. 13.20.010. General.
A. It is unlawful for any owner or lessee, tenant or other person in possession of any

Overview of Applicant’s Request
The applicant is requesting to zone 23.10 acres of land to the Residential Estate (RE) zoning district
upon annexation in lieu of the default Agriculture (AG) zoning designation. The annexation petition
was accepted by the City Council on January 8, 2019. The applicant intends to subdivide the property
into 19, 1-acre residential lots. See Exhibit 5 for the applicant’s letter of intent.
Site Information
Location:
The property is located east of DB Wood Road, north of State Highway 29 (University Ave). The
property is situated between the River Chase neighborhood and the Wolf Ranch West neighborhood,
which is currently in development.
Physical and Natural Features:
The Middle Fork San Gabriel River runs along the western boundary of the property, and because of
this the eastern portion of the property slopes toward the river. The property also has heavy tree cover.
Future Land Use and Zoning Designations:
The subject property is split between two Future Land Use designations, Low Density Residential and
Moderate Density Residential. There is not a zoning designation because the property is currently in
the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ).
Surrounding Properties:
The area surrounding the property is entirely used for single-family residential. There are residential
acre lots and rural residential subdivisions to the north. To the east and south, the area has grown and
developed with higher density single-family residential, as well as multi-family and commercial along
the major corridors such as Wolf Ranch Pkwy and University Ave.
The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the
north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below:

Property History:
There is no notable property history. The property is located in the ETJ.
Comprehensive Plan Guidance
Future Land Use Map:
The property is split between two Future Land Use designations, Low Density Residential and
Moderate Density Residential.
The Low Density Residential category includes the city’s predominantly single-family neighborhoods
that can be accommodated at a density between 1.1 and 3 dwelling units per gross acre. Conservation
subdivisions are also encouraged in this land use district. Modifications to development standards
applicable to this category could address minimum open space requirements, public facility impacts,
and greater roadway connectivity. This category may also support complementary non-residential uses
along arterial roadways such as neighborhood-serving retail, office, institutional, and civic uses,
although such uses may not be depicted on the Future Land Use Map. Standards should be established
to maximize compatibility of these uses with adjacent land uses, minimize traffic congestion and
overloading of public infrastructure, and also ensure a high standard of site, landscape, and
architectural design.
The Moderate Density Residential category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as comprising
River Chase Wolf Ranch
West
Residential
Area in the ETJ
Page 29 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
ANX-2018-009
Maravilla Rezoning Page 4 of 7
single family neighborhoods that can be accommodated at a density ranging between 3.1 and 6
dwelling units per gross acre, with housing types including small-lot detached and attached single-
family dwellings (such as townhomes). This category may also support complementary non-residential
uses along major roadways such as neighborhood-serving retail, office, institutional, and civic uses,
although such uses may not be depicted on the Future Land Use Map.
Growth Tier:
The property is located within Growth Tier 2.
Tier 2 lies outside the city limits, but within the City’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Until
annexation occurs, land use and development controls are limited to subdivision review and signage,
and in some cases building permits where City utilities are connected to new construction. However,
the City may consider requests for annexation, extension of City services, and rezonings in this area.
Utilities
The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water and electric. Upon annexation,
the subject property would also be within the City’s service area for wastewater; however, wastewater
services are proposed to be provided through on-site sewage facilities (OSSF). It is anticipated that there
is adequate water capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation may be
required at time of Subdivision Plat to determine capacity and any necessary utility improvements.
Transportation
The property has frontage on Skyline Road, which is a private local street where adjacent to the subject
property. The roadway provides access to DB Wood Road (Minor Arterial, south of Oakridge Rd; Major
Arterial north of Oakridge Rd). Skyline Road currently terminates near the property. The Wolf Ranch
West development will be connecting to Skyline Road north of the subject property and this will create
a route to Wolf Ranch Parkway (Major Collector).
Skyline Road is currently a public street up until the property owned by Hillwood and is private for
the portion adjacent to the subject property. It will remain private prior to the subdivision of the subject
property. During the platting process, Skyline Road will need to be extended as a public street along
the entire length of the property. The UDC would allow the roadway to be extended as a rural/local
street.
Additional local streets would need to be constructed on the property to support residential
development.
Proposed Zoning district
The Residential Estate District (RE) is intended for areas of very low density single-family residential
use and associated uses. The district has a lot size minimum of one acre to retain a rural character and
is appropriate where topography or lack of public utilities and services may necessitate a low density.
Permitted land uses within the district include detached single-famil, group homes with six residents
or less, and minor utilities. Elementary schools, churches, neighborhood amenity centers, and golf
Page 30 of 54

ANX-2018-009
Maravilla Rezoning Page 5 of 7
courses are permitted subject to specific design limitations to ensure compatibility with the
surrounding properties. Other uses such as accessory dwelling units, bed and breakfasts, group day
cares, and youth or senior activity centers may be permitted subject to approval of a Special Use Permit
(SUP). Exhibit 4 contains a comprehensive list of RE district permitted uses and development
standards.
Interdepartmental Review
The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the
appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding
the zoning request.
Approval Criteria
Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with 4 of the 5 criteria
established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below:
REZONING APPROVAL CRITERIA FINDINGS STAFF COMMENTS
1. The application is complete
and the information
contained within the
application is sufficient and
correct enough to allow
adequate review and final
action.
Complies
An application must provide the
necessary information to review and
make a knowledgeable decision in order
for staff to schedule an application for
consideration by the Planning and
Zoning Commission and City Council.
This application was reviewed by staff
and deemed to be complete.
2. The zoning change is
consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
Does Not Comply
The majority of the subject property is
designated as Low Density Residential
on the Future Land Use Map. This
category includes the city’s
predominantly single-family
neighborhoods that can be
accommodated at a density between 1.1
and 3 dwelling units per gross acre.
The Rural Estate (RE) zoning district has
a minimum lot size of 1 acre, which
allows 1 dwelling unit per gross acre.
However, this zoning district may also
allow lots that have less than 1 dwelling
unit per gross acre as the 1-acre lot size is
a minimum requirement in order to
retain a rural character.
Due to the purpose of the RE zoning
Page 31 of 54

REZONING APPROVAL CRITERIA FINDINGS STAFF COMMENTS
district, this district is most appropriate
in the Agricultural/Rural Residential
Future Land Use Designation, which is
intended to accommodate very low levels
of population and require very limited
array of public services. Because of this,
this designation is generally located in
the outer portion of the ETJ.
3. The zoning change
promotes the health, safety
or general welfare of the
City and the safe orderly,
and healthful development
of the City.
Complies
There is currently not a zoning
designation on the subject property;
however, it is located at the end of rural
local street that has been primarily
developed with rural residential
subdivisions within the ETJ. The
proposed RE zoning district allows for an
orderly development due to the decrease
in density closer to and adjacent to the
ETJ residential subdivision to the north.
Additionally, the subject property is
situated between two single-family
residential neighborhoods, one of which
is a one-acre lot subdivision (River Chase
to the west). Access to the property
would be primarily through the ETJ
subdivisions, or through one of the Wolf
Ranch West subdivision to the east, once
the connection to Skyline Rd is
completed.
4. The zoning change is
compatible with the present
zoning and conforming uses
of nearby property and with
the character of the
neighborhood.
Complies
The subject property is compatible with
the present zoning and land uses because
it is completely surrounded by single-
family residential areas. To the east and
west of the property are Residential
Single-Family (RS) zoned areas and to the
north and south are rural residential
subdivisions within the ETJ. The
proposed zoning district, should it be
approved, would allow the subject
property to develop at a density
consistent with the residential
neighborhoods to the north and west (1-
ac lot subdivisions)
5. The property to be rezoned
is suitable for uses Complies The subject property is suitable for the
permitted uses of the Rural Estate (RE)

permitted by the District
that would be applied by
the proposed amendment.
district because it has sufficient acreage
to create lots that conform to the required
dimensional standards.
Based on the findings listed above, the zoning of the property to Residential Estate (RE) is generally
appropriate because is maintains the character of the area, fills a gap between two residential areas, and
location of the property at the end of a rural street. However, it is important to note that that the request
does not comply with the Comprehensive Plan because the intent of the RE zoning district was for the
outer fringe of the City/ETJ where a lack of public utilities and services may necessitate a low density,
as well as to retain the rural character.

and that are located within the boundaries of the City’s authorized service areas.
Further, existing residences in the annexed area that were served by a functioning onsite
sewer system (septic system) shall continue to use such private system for wastewater
services in conformance with the provisions of Section 13.20 of the City Code of

Annexation Service Plan Page 5 of 13
Area: Maravilla
of water and wastewater services will be provided in accordance with the policies
summarized in Section X of this Plan and with any applicable construction and design
standards manuals adopted by the City.
3. Water and Wastewater Capital Improvements Schedule – Because of the time required
to design and construct the necessary water and wastewater facilities to serve the
annexed area, certain services cannot be reasonably provided within 2½ years of the
effective date of annexation. Therefore, in accordance with Sections 43.065(b) and (e) of
the LGC, the City shall implement a program, which will be initiated after the effective
date of the annexation and include the acquisition or construction of capital
improvements necessary for providing water and wastewater services to the area. The
following schedule for improvements is proposed: construction will commence within 2
½ years from the effective date of annexation and will be substantially complete within 4
½ years from the effective date of annexation. However, the provisions of Section VII of
this Plan shall apply to the schedule for completion of all capital improvements. In
addition, the acquisition or construction of the improvements shall be accomplished by
purchase, lease, or other contract or by the City succeeding to the powers, duties, assets,
and obligations of a conservation and reclamation district as authorized or required by
law.
4. Roads and Streets – No road or street related capital improvements are necessary at this
time. Future extension of roads or streets and installation of traffic control devices will
be governed by the City’s Comprehensive Plan, the City’s Overall Transportation Plan,
the City’s Capital Improvements Plan; the City’s regular or non-impact fee Capital
Improvements Program, and any applicable City ordinances, policies, and procedures,
which may require that the property owner or developer install roads and s treets at the
property owner’s or developer’s expense. It is anticipated that the developer of new
subdivisions in the area will install street lighting in accordance with the City’s standard
policies and procedures. Provision of street lighting will be in accordance with the
City’s street lighting policies.
5. Capital Improvements for Other Municipal Services – No capital improvements are
necessary at this time to provide municipal Police; Fire Protection; Emergency Medical
Services; Solid Waste Collection; Public Parks, Playgrounds, or Swimming Pools; Public
Buildings or Facilities; or Library Services. The annexed area will be included in the
City’s future planning for new or expanded capital improvements and evaluated on the
same basis and in accordance with the same standards as similarly situated areas of the
City.

of nature including landslides, lightening, earthquakes, fires, storms, floods, washouts,
droughts, tornadoes, hurricanes; arrest and restraint of government; explosions;
collisions, and all other inabilities of the City, whether similar to those enumerated or
otherwise, which are not within the control of the City. Any deadlines or other
provisions of this Plan that are affected by a Force Majeure Event shall be automatically
extended to account for delays caused by such Force Majeure Event.
2. In accordance with Section 43.056(e) of the LGC, this Plan and the schedules for capital
improvements necessary to provide full municipal services to the annexed area may be
amended by the City to extend the period for construction if the construction is
proceeding with all deliberate speed. The construction of the improvements shall be
accomplished in a continuous process and shall be completed as soon as reasonably
possible, consistent with generally accepted local engineering and architectural
standards and practices. However, the City does not violate this Plan if the construction
process is interrupted for any reason by circumstances beyond the direct control of the
City.
VIII. AMENDMENTS
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 43.056(k) of the LGC, on approval by the City Council, the
Plan is a contractual obligation that is not subject to amendment or repeal except as provided by
state law. Section 43.056(k) of the LGC provides that if the City Council determines, after public
hearings, that changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make the Plan unworkable or
obsolete, the City Council may amend the Plan to conform to the changed conditions or
subsequent occurrences. An amended Plan must provide for services that are comparable to or
better than those established in the Plan before amendment. Before any Plan amendments are
adopted, the City Council must provide an opportunity for interested persons to be heard at
public hearings called and held in the manner provided by Section 43.0561 of the LGC.
IX. FEES
The City may impose a fee for any municipal service in the area annexed if the same type of fee
is imposed within the corporate boundaries of the City. All City fees are subject to revision
from time to time by the City in its sole discretion.
X. SUMMARY OF CURRENT WATER AND WASTEWATER SERVICE EXTENSION POLICIES
Per the requirements of Section 43.056(e) of the LGC, the following summary is provided
regarding the City’s current service extension policies for water and wastewater service.
However, this is a summary of the current policies, and the policies and regulations related to
water and wastewater utility extensions that are included in the City Code of Ordinances, the
Unified Development Code, the City’s Construction and Specifications Manual; Drainage
Page 47 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 7 of 13
Area: Maravilla
Manual, and other published policies and technical manuals, as the same may be amended from
time to time, shall control the extension of water and wastewater services to the annexed area.
In addition, these policies and ordinances are set by City Council and can be amended in the
future:
1. In General -- The provisions of Chapter 13 of the City’s Unified Development Code
(“UDC”) shall apply in the annexed area and Chapter 13 of the City Code of Ordinances.
Portions of the current Chapter 13 of the UDC and the current Chapter 13 of the Code of
Ordinances are summarized below. Note that these provisions are established by
ordinance of the City Council and are subject to change from time to time.
A. The City shall not repair, maintain, install or provide any water services,
wastewater service, gas, electricity or any other public utilities or services to any
property that has not been legally subdivided or is a non-legal lot.
B. For property that is required by the City’s UDC or other City regulations to
construct water or wastewater facilities, funding and construction of those
facilities are the responsibility of the property owner or developer (the
“subdivider”).
C. Subdividers shall be responsible for providing an approved public water supply
system for fire protection and domestic/ commercial/ industrial usage consistent
with the Comprehensive Plan. Where an approved public water supply or
distribution main is within reasonable distance of the subdivision, but in no case
less than one-quarter mile away, and connection to the system is both possible
and permissible (including adequate system capacity), the subdivider shall be
required to bear the cost of connecting the subdivision to such existing water
supply. The subdivider shall, consistent with all existing ordinances, make a pro-
rata contribution to funding of needed storage facilities, treatment facilities, and
specific distribution lines as determined necessary by the City.
D. Subdividers shall be responsible for providing an approved public sanitary
sewer system, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, throughout the entire
subdivision such that all lots, parcels, or tracts of land will be capable of
connecting to the sanitary sewer system except as otherwise provided herein.
Where an approved public sanitary sewer collection main or outfall line is in no
case less than one-half mile away, and connection to the system is both possible
and permissible (including adequate system capacity), the subdivider shall be
required to bear the cost of connecting the subdivision to such existing sanitary
sewer system. Where an approved public wastewater collection main or outfall
line is more than one-half mile away from the property boundary, and where
extension of a sanitary sewer collection main or outfall line is scheduled in the
City’s Capital Improvements Plan to be completed to a point within one -half
mile of the property boundary within five (5) years from the date of the
Preliminary Plat approval, the subdivider shall be required to install a public
Page 48 of 54
Annexation Service Plan Page 8 of 13
Area: Maravilla
wastewater collection system. The design and construction of a public sanitary
sewer system shall comply with regulations covering extension of public sanitary
sewer systems adopted by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
E. All infrastructure and public improvements must be designed and installed in
accordance with all of the elements of the Comprehensive Plan and shall meet
the minimum requirements established by the UDC, the City's Construction
Standards and Specifications for Roads, Streets, Structures and Utilities, and any
other adopted City design or technical criteria. No main water line extensi on
shall be less than eight inches. All new public sanitary sewer systems shall be
designed and constructed to conform with the City’s Construction Standards and
Specifications and to operate on a gravity flow basis by taking advantage of
natural topographic conditions and thereby reducing the need for lift stations
and force mains.
2. If the specific undeveloped property does not have City water or wastewater facilities
and capacity fronting the property – the owner may make an application for an
extension of service to the property. If the Assistant City Manager for Utilities
determines in writing that adequate water or wastewater capacity is available, or will be
available, and if the project does not include City cost participation or reimbursement, if
the proposed facilities are depicted on the City’s Water and Wastewater Master Plans,
and the requested service otherwise meets the City’s requirements, the extension size,
capacity, and routing may be approved by the Assistant City Manager for Utilities fo r
construction by the developer at the developer’s cost and expense.
3. If the specific undeveloped property does have adequate City water or wastewater
facilities and capacity fronting the property – the owner may receive water or
wastewater service from the City by applying for a tap permit and paying the required
fees.
4. If any property in the annexed area is using a septic system – the property owner
remains responsible for the operation and maintenance of the septic system. If the
property is in a Rural Residential Subdivision as defined in Chapter 13 of the UDC, or is
a legal lot greater than one acre in size and used for single family residential purposes,
the property shall continue the use of a septic system after annexation until such time
that the use of the property changes, the property is further subdivided or developed, or
a public sanitary sewer line has been extended to within 200 feet of the property
boundary and the property owner has received notification from the City of the City’s
desire for the property to be connected to the public sanitary sewer line. If the septic
system fails before the City’s centralized wastewater service is extended to within 200
feet of the property and the City determines that the provision of centralized wa stewater
service is not feasible or practical at that time, then the property owner must either
repair or replace the septic system in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.20 of
the City Code of Ordinances. Properties using a septic system that are not in a Rural
Residential Subdivision , or are not legal lots greater than one acre in size and used for

single family residential purposes at the time of annexation, but that are designated as
either residential, open space or agricultural on the City’s Future Land Use Plan shall
continue the use of a septic system until such time that the use of the property changes,
the property is further subdivided or developed, or a public sanitary sewer line has been
extended to within 200 feet of the property boundary and the property owner has
received notification from the City of the City’s desire for the property to be connected
to the public sanitary sewer line.
5. Reimbursement and cost participation by the City – Pursuant to Section 13.09.030 of
the UDC, the City, in its sole discretion and with City Council approval, may participate
