Main St Georgetown, Tx 869-1 392 Agent: Jim Spence 8140 MoPac, Bld. 3 Suite 240 Austin, Tx 346-0152 VARIANCE - ROLLING MEADOWS Page 2 Request: As required by Section 4.03 Part 8 of the City Subdivision Ordinance, applicant has requested an extension of the approval given this plat on April 23, 1985 in order to have more time in which to complete the construction plans. Facts: Location: Approximately 3/4 mile southeast of Georgetown, along the west side of Hutto Rd. Is in ETJ and outside Edwards Recharge Area. History: Council may grant an extension not to exceed one year. Several previous requests of this type have been granted. The extensions allowed for previous requests have ranged from three to six months. The project under consideration involves considerable off-site utility improvements. MOKAN- On July 9, 1985 the City Council adopted a resolution which : 1) agreed to support the development of a facility known as the Mokan transportation corridor, 2.) Agreed to furnish all required right-of-way and adjust all utilities not furnished or adjusted by the Mokan transportation corporation. The conceptual roadway alignment map dated January 10, 1985 shows this future expressway with proposed R.O.W. of 300 to 400 feet along the eastern boundary of the proposed subdivision. Applicant should begin negotiation with the transportation corporation to determine impact on this proposal. Planning Staff Recommendation: Granting of request with a three month extension of approval. However, applicant shall be put on notice that due to the water availability policy no further extensions will be recommended by staff and that a final plat must be submitted for consideration prior to new expiration date of January 8, 1986. The impact of proposed Mokan Transit Corridor should be ascertained prior to submittal of final plat or the preliminary plats of other sections. City Council Actiok: (5-0) Granted with conditions stated above CRYSTAL KNOLL TERRACE UNIT III — FINAL PLAT iii 11 , THIS S1F rnY tom.•I 7 u v Location Map 1" = 2000' Applicant: The Jefferson Group PO Box 38 8 3 Beaumont, Tx 77704 409- 842-2358 Agent: Victor Turley 301 N. 3rd St. Temple, Tx 76501 817- 77 3-2400 a Request: Final Plat and Site Plan approval for Crystal Knoll Terrace PUD, Unit Three, a 28.86 acre subdivision out of a part of the Antonio Flores Survey being part of a 100 acre tract of Cecil M. Schneider, et ux, recorded in Vol. 517, Page 2:45. Variances are requested for Right Angle Lots 9-12 Blk 3, 4-6 Blk 5, and 29-3L Blk 6. Facts: Location: This tract comprises the Northeast corner of Crystalx'Knoll Terrace PUD which is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of County roads 151 and 152. This subdivision is within the E.T.J. and within the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Crystal Knoll Terrace Page 2 Surrounding Uses: Agricultural use exists to the north and east; a row of 10 duplexes adjoins the property ori the southeast. Single family use is proposed in the approved final plat of Unit One to the south; and multifamily use is proposed to the west in the preliminary plat of Crystal Knoll Terrace PUD. Proposed Use: 119 duplexes comprising 238 living units at a density of 8.25 units per acre. Development Plan: District 5C recommends normal residential 4 duplexes/acre) and thus the proposed use is not in strict conformance with the plan. However, use does conform to that approved on the preliminary plat. History: Preliminary plat was conditionally _ approved on April 9, 1985. All conditions of approval have been met or are being resolved with staff. Analysis: The density of Section Three exceeds the maximum allowable density of 8 dwelling units/acre by approximately 38. Calculations based on land use type that would include the 10 duplex lots platted in Unit One reduce the average density to 8.1 dwelling units/acre which is still in excess of ordinance standards by three dwelling units. However, since the revised lot arrangement in block 3 around the park site creates an overlapping of back yards and side yards among Lots 8-11 and minimizes the rear yards of Lots 9 and 10,and since it is desirable to create a pedestrian access to the park from the west, then the redesign of Lots 9-14 to eliminate one lot (2 dwelling units) would reduce the density to approximate ordinance requirements, improve park accessibility and yard layout at the corner. The developer of this tract has been involved in the development of one of the City's three wells in the area. Council approval of Unit Two was conditioned upon the execution of an agreement with applicant that off-site water improvements meet the City Engineer's requirements for the use of all three new City wells. Substantial off-site wastewater improvments are also required in conjunction with this development. Crystal Knoll Terrace Page 3 While the developer has met the preliminary plat condition that a non -detention area park be provided in this subdivision, improvments to the park have not been shown. Also a detailed landscaping plan for this unit was not submitted and it is assumed that the landscaping of individual lots will follow that established in Units One and Two. However, this portion of the development does have some existing tree cover which should be conserved if possible. Therefore, it is desirable that proposed landscape and improvement plans for the Park and Detention/ Recreation Area, including existing trees, be submitted for approval in conjunction with construction plan review. Variances have been requested for several situations where side yards abut rear yards. This condition can always be eliminated by reducing the number of lots to provide larger corner lots. Variance has also been requested to allow reduction of minimum lot area from 7000 sq. ft. to a minimum of 6000 sq. ft. Since the project is being developed under the P.U.D. guidelines with adequate landscaping and common open space being provided in addition to the use of common driveways as shown on the site plan, the liveability of the residences is not diminished. Planning Staff Recommendations: Approval of final plat and site plan and the variance to allow right angle lots 9-11 Block 3, 4-6 Block 5, and 29-31 Block 6; and to reduce minimum lot area to 6000 sq. ft. conditioned upon the following comments: 1. Plat and Site Plan meeting ordinance requirements, 2. Drainage requirements being met and a Drainage Facility Maintenance Agreement being required, 3. Utilities being adequate (water availability note shall apply), 4. T.D.W.R. approval of a Water Pollution Abatement Plan is required, 5. Block 3 shall be redesigned to provide pedestrian access to the park from Magnolia Drive and increase the depth of Lots 9 & 10 to 1251, 6. The final landscape plan shall show existing trees and include both detention areas and street parkways, and show proposed improvements to the park 7. The final landscape and site plans shall be included with the construction plans, 8. Plat shall be resubmitted for survey review prior to recordation, 9. Building Permits for this subdivision shall not be issued until 508 of off-site utility construction is complete, 10. Improvements to County Roads are needed, 11. Off-site improvments shall meet City Engineer's specifications for conditions reflecting development of the three City wells in this area, P & Z Recommendation:(3-0) Approval conditional upon above City 6ouncil Action: comments being satisfied. 5-0) Approved as recommended above SHELL ADDITION - RESUBDIVISON OF BLOCK 6 Location Map 1"= 2000' Applicant: Douglas L. Anderson PO Box 752 Georgetown, Tx 78627-752 86 3-565 3 Agent: Steger & Bizzell, Inc. PO Box 858 Georgetown, Tx 78627-858 86 3-4521 Request: Approval for Resubdivision of a .22 Acre part of Block 6 of Shell Addition, situated in the William Addison Survey, Abstract 21. Facts: . Location: On the northwest corner of 4th Street and Pine Street, within the City limits and Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Surrounding Uses: Single family residences occupy the adjoining properties to the north and east, and directly across 4th Street to the south. The property across Pine Street to the west (as well as the southwest corner of Pine and 4th) is vacant. Shell Addition Page 2 Analysis: According to the applicants engineer the lot represented by this plat was "deed divided" prior to 1968. Thus, it is likely that this could be considered under the long standing "grandfather" policy as a legally established lot. This policy developed due to the fact that while the City has had a Subdivision Ordinance since February 14, 1955 this ordinance was not rigorously enforced until after passage of the current ordinance in 1977. However, the Planning Department strongly encourages the proper platting of all property within the City's jurisdication to ensure uniform development and accurate records for the future. Staff Recommendation: Approval of the plat subject to the following conditions: 1. All ordinance requirements shall be met, 2. Drainage requirements shall be met, 3. Utilities being adequate,water availability note shall apply, 4. Utility Plan shall be revised per City Engineers Comments prior to recordation. P & Z Recommendation: (3-0) Approved conditional upon above comments being satisfied. City Council Action:(4-0) 1 abstention Approved as recommended above by Planning and Zoning UNIVERSITY PARK SECTION TWO PUD - PRELIMINARY PLAT AND SITE PLAN Request: Approval of preliminary plat and site plan of University Park Two, Planned Unit Development, a 81.18 acre tract in the William Addison Survey, Abstract No. 21. Facts: Location: South of Hwy 29 and northeast of Hutto Road. Surrounding Area: Undeveloped land and proposed normal and small lot single family residential. 4 • • I J1 M.

Joint Venture 3415 Greystone, Suite 304 Austin, Tx 78731 512 345-5413 Agent: Planned Development Concepts(Jeff Eastman) 3415 Greystone, Suite 304 Austin, Tx 78731 512 345 5486 Request: Approval of preliminary plat and site plan of University Park Two, Planned Unit Development, a 81.18 acre tract in the William Addison Survey, Abstract No. 21. Facts: Location: South of Hwy 29 and northeast of Hutto Road. Surrounding Area: Undeveloped land and proposed normal and small lot single family residential. University Park Section Two PUD Page 2 Proposed Uses: a residential development of 404 small lot single family and townhouse apartment units with recreational facilities. Density is 5.66 dwelling units/acre. Development Plan: This area was designated as normal residential and schools and parks, thus the high residential densities planned do not strictly conform to the master plan. General Concerns: The primary issue on this project is the small lot size and non-standard configuration of the lot layout. Under the P.U.D. Ordinance it is up to the developer to demonstrate that any deviation from standard requirements will contribute to a "better" design. A second issue is the extent to which the street system will need to tie in to surrounding properties without destroying the unified neighborhood concept. Applicant must demonstrate that common areas and other amenities provide safe and usable recreational features in sufficient quantity and of sufficient quality to promote a superior neighborhood design. Staff Recommendation: The plat and site plan should be resubmitted with all informational requirements of the PUD Ordinance met and the following comments satisfied. 1. Plat and support documents should conform to requirements to PUD Ordinance 2. The following ordinance requirements concerning lots have not beehmet: a. Area less than 6000 sq. ft. b. Front width less than 60 feet and/or average depth less than 100 feet C. Lots fronting on two non -intersection streets d. Lots placed at right angles to other lots e. 25 ft. front yard setback is reduced to either 10 ft, or 15 ft. (variance is requested) f. 7 ft. side yard setback is reduced to 5 ft. or zero ft. (variance is requested) g. Elimination of public utility easements along rear and side lot limits. Complete evaluation of these variances cannot be completed until a more detailed site plan is reviewed. However, in general, it is the recommendation of the staff that the size and shape of lots be increased: to accomodate the residential units described in the "Product Justification" section of proposal; to provide a minimum 15 ft. front _-yard; to provide minimum side yards as required for spacing of structures; to conform to standards for maximum coverage University Park Section Two PUD Page 3 by structures, maximum impervious cover, and required private open space; and to reduce or make special provisions for lots at right angles and double frontage lots. Staff has no objection to elimination of rear and side utility easements.] 3. The following ordinance requirements regarding streets have not been met: a. Private streets are allowed in PUD's but should have a minimum 50 foot R.O.W. especially if they contain utilities. Complete review of substandard roadway widths will require submittal of typical street and utility layout cross-section. b. 75 ft. street center line radius on Rachel Court should be increased and requested variance not granted. C. Horn Court exceeds 600' maximum length for cul-de- sac and should be connected to Snyder Court and the request for variance not granted. Similar redesign should be considered for Hyer Court and Merritt Court. 4. Recommend providing street access to adjacent properties to the north, east and southeast. 5. Variance must be requested and justified for proposed reduction of off-street parking requirements for three bedroom units. 6. Additional water storage facilities are required to adequately accommodate the development. 7. Water Availability Note shall apply to this subdivision ie. No building permits shall be issued until the proposed water treatment facilities are operational or an acceptable alternate source is'provided) 8. The preliminary site plan and/or support documents should provide all informational requirements of Section 2.809 of PUD ordinance 9. The site plan, typical lot layout, and architectural illustrations should be co-ordinated to provide an accurate indication of all facets of the development. 10. A landscape plan should be submitted. P&Z Recommendation: (5-0) Approval of preliminary plat and site plan conditional upon the requirements of the PUD Ordinance being met as worked out with the Planning Dept. and described in the comments above. City Council Action (5-0) At meeting of July 23, request to approve preliminary plat and site plan was tabled and refered to staff for reconsiderat- ion after presentation by applicant regarding the concept of the Planned Unit Development and its proposed application at University Park. University Park Section Two PUD Page 4 Staff Reconsideration: At a meeting with Planning staff and applicant on July 30, see letter of July 31 attached to application for sub- division) certain criteria was established to serve as guidelines for further review in response to Comments 1 through 5 and 8 through 10. In summary these criteria are as follows: 1.) Comments 1, 8, and 9 shall be met by the submittal of required information 2.) Comment 2 a - Lot areas ranging from 4500 sq. ft. to 6000 sq. ft. are acceptable for product types 4 and 5. Lot areas ranging from 4000 sq. ft. to 4500 sq, ft. will be allowed on a case by case basis as judged by the "fit" of the building on the site. 3.) Comment 2 b - Minimum lot frontage shall be 35 ft. 4.) Comment 2 c - Double frontage lots shall have a minimum rear yard of 25 ft. 5.) Comment 2 d - Lots placed with side yards adjacent to rear yards shall be eliminated where possible 6.) Comment 2 e - 15 ft. setbacks from all street R.O.W. shall be established by plat. Variances may be recommended up to a minimum of 10 ft. for front yard setbacks on a case by case basis 7.) Comment 2 f - 5 ft.side yards shall be allowed 8.) Comment 2 g - Utilities shall be designed to allow for the elimination of side and rear P.U.E. 9.) Comment 3 a - Streets shall be redesigned to meet normal standards 10.) Comment 3 b - 75' centerline radius on Rachal Court should be increased to 200 ft. 11.) Comment 3 c - Recommend connecting long cul-de-sac to form "loop" 12.) Comment 9 - Future through streets shall be provided both to North and East (minimum ) and a second access provided for the present 13.) Comment 5 - Attempts to fulfill off-street parking requirements should be made 14.) Comment 6 - Water storage improvements are needed 15.) Comment 8 - Water Availability note shall apply 16.) Comment 8 & 9 - See discussion with comment 1 17.) Comment 10 - Landscape concept shall be submitted 18.) Additional requirements - the instruments regarding the deed back" of side yards must be approved by City Attorney. 125 ft. street intersection off -sets shall be met. The nature of the proposed "ammenities" should be more fully described. Analysis: The latest version of the plat and site plan appeat to generally satisfy the conditions of approval recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission in conjunction with modified PUD Ordinance criteria established by agreement between planning staff and applicant. Gross residential density allowances have been met and the common recreational University Park Section Two PUD Page 5 spaces (at least in area terms) seem to off -set the small size of most lots. The key factors required to "improve the livability" of this development are; the successful integration of street, drainage, and utility systems with the landscaping and recreational facilities, the implimenta- tion of a uniform architectural theme with high quality, low maintenance construction, and the serving of a housing market with sufficient flexibility so that the "product mix" of each product type can be adjusted to successfully fit the variations of the individual lots created. Therefore, in order to provide this flexibility and yet maintain order and control, it is recommended that an additional level of site plan review be added to the approval process. This review should occur after the recording of final plat and prior to the issuance of building permits and would consist of a layout at appropriate scale of all lots fronting on individual residential streets and showing all improvements to be constructed along that street including landscaping, building layout, streets, drains, and utilities. The process shall insure conformance with normal City Codes and policies and the previously described criteria established for this project while also providing administrative variance authority for the reduction of the 15 ft. front building line to a minimum of 10 ft. and the off-street parking requirements for three and four bedroom units as requested by applicant. It is further suggested that the Planning Commission be established as the appeals body in the event that staff and applicant cannot successfully resolve these issues. Staff Recommendation: Approval of preliminary plat and site plan with the following conditions: 1.) All ordinance requirements being met, 2.) All drainage requirements being met, 3.) Utilities being adequate. Water Availability Note shall apply, 4.) Water Pollution Abatement Plan being approved, 5.) Additional water storage facilities are required to adequately accommodate this development, 6.) Preliminary landscape plan shall be submitted for staff approval prior to submittal of final plat, 7.) Final site plans shall be at a scale of 1"=50' for each product type and shall reflect the "ideal" product mix within each type, 8.) Construction phasing plan and schematic grading plan shall be submitted with final plat, 9.) Stormwater facility maintenance covenant shall be requested, 10.) Site plan for Product Type III "Townhouses" shall be subject to standard review process, 11.) The following variances shall be granted under the PUD Ordinance and as outlined in the analysis section of this report: University Park Section Two PUD Page 6 a.) lot area less than 6000 sq. ft. b.) lot frontage less than 60 ft. c.) lot depth less than 100 ft. d.) lots with frontage on two non -intersecting street e.) lots at right angles f.) reduction of front setback to 15 ft. g.) reduction of side setback to 5 ft. except for 15 ft. on corner lots h.) elimination of side and rear public utility easements i.) corner lot width less than 5 ft. wider than average interior lot j.) street centerline readius less than 300 ft. -on Rachel Court and Steel Court k.) street centerline readius less than 800 ft. -Morrow Drive 12.) Authorization shall be granted to planning staff to grant the following variances on a case by case basis in conjunction with streetscape plan review with Planning and Zoning Commission acting as appeals body: a.) further reduction of front building line to 10 ft. b.) Reduce off-street parking requirements for three and four bedroom units to two spaces/unit. City Council Action: (4-1) Approved as recommended by staff above with the exception that condition twelve (12) above be deleted EAGLE'S NEST APARTMENTS - VARIANCE REQUEST Location Map 1"=2000' Applicant: Clay St. Joint Venture G.L. Smith and David Dacy 3135 Honey Tree Lane Austin, Tx 78731 Agent: Cox/Croslin and Associates (Ron Kelley) 6907 Capitol of Tx. Hwy Austin, Tx 78731 346-8420 Request: Site plan approval for Eagle's Nest Apartments, a 1.22 acre tract out of the east side of Lot 1, Block 7, of the Gabriel Heights addition, cabinet B, slides 5-7. This approval requires the following variances: 1. to grant a reductic 25 feet to 15 feet. Request is yard from 2. Zoning Ordinance 6.106 Yard Regulations- Request is to grant approval for construction of three parking spaces in the requested 15 foot front yard. 3. Density Standards- Request is to grant an increase in the maximum allowable density standard recommended by the Planning Department from 20 Living Units per Acre to 26 Living Units per Acre. Eagle's Nest (page 2) Facts: Location: West of IH 35, east of Park Lane, on the south side of Clay Street. Surrounding Uses: Mini Storage warehouses and a duplex are to the northwest; Georgetown Inn is to the southwest; a Texaco service station is to the southeast; and across the street (NE) is vacant land. Surrounding Zoning: Residential Multifamily (RM -3) to the Northwest and Local Commercial District C-1) on all other sides. Existing Zoning: C-1 Local Commercial District Proposed Use: 32 one and two bedroom apartments at a density of 26 units per acre Development Plan: Commercial use is recommended, the proposed District 4b use and existing zoning are substantially in conformance with the plan. History: The site is a part of Lot 1, Block 7, of the Gabriel Heights Subdivision as recorded September 2, 1964. This lot was formed by metes and bounds on April 15, 1975, Vol. 608, page 390. The most recent research of the planning department reveals this to be an unplatted resubdivision, however in the pre - development conferences the applicant and staff had reason to believe that 1977 was the cut off date for metes and bounds resubdivision. The covenants filed on the record plat require a front building setback of 30 feet. These covenants can be changed by a majority vote of property owners after January 1, 1974. Analysis: All three requested variances revolve around one central issue, over utilization of the site. If the standard density of 20 units/acre is used, the number of units would be reduced to 25 and the required parking spaces reduced to 37. Thus, if the number of units proposed were reduced by 7 and the number of parking spaces reduced by 11, then no variances would be needed. It should also be noted that this reduction in impervious cover would reduce the amount of stormwater run-off and compliment applicants request for administrative variance from stormwater detention requirements. It should also be noted that if this property were rezoned to RM -3 District, which would allow the proposed use, then a 15 foot front yard would be allowed. However, the parking therein would still be in violation. Eagle's Nest page 3 With regard to the density standard, this project as proposed does meet the minimum lot size required for 32 living units under Ordinance Section 2.03032.(a) which requires 1.16 acre minimum lot area as compared to the 1.22 acres of this site. Clearly, the application of "standards" or guidelines in the review of development proposals carries less authority than do the "restrictions" of the Zoning Ordinance. However, they do serve an important role in the creation of a more consistant and uniform development climate throughout the community. The primary justification presented by the applicant for the granting of these variances is that "various City officials" have given direction that the development be reviewed under RM -3 District regulations. According to the applicant this direction was received intermittantly beginning in 1980 and as recently as 1984. Section 11.206 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes the Board of Adjustment City Council) as the authority to hear and decide appeals where there is alleged to be error in any determination by the administration official. Planning Staff Recommendation: Variance #1 Area Regulations- No objection Variance #2 Parking in front yard - Denial Variance #3 Density standards - Denial Council Action: Withdrawn at Council per request of Sept. 10, 1985 applicant. Council Action: Withdrawn at Council per request of Oct. 8, 1985 applicant. RIVER HILLS - CONCEPT PLAN Locat Applicant: Walter Carrington Company 5609 Adams Austin, Tx 512 454-6601 Agent: David Holt - Holford Group 9501 Capital of Tx Hwy North Austin, Tx `7Y 75 °r 512 346-8181 Request: 2000' Concept Plan approval for River Hills of Georgetown, a57.7 acre multiuse development, out of the C. StubblefieldSurveyandtheJ.B. Pulsifer Survey No. 36. Facts: Location: Bordering on the west side of IH -35 between theN. San Gabriel River and Hwy 29. Outside of, but contiguous to City limits and within Edwards RechargeZone. Surrounding Uses: Undeveloped land and large lot single-family and duplex residential Proposed Use: 15.2 acres of multi -family, 4.7 acreas of professional office, 7.6 acres of local retailcommercial, 2.5 acres of commercial, and 27.7 acres of large lot single family residential. River Hills Page 2 Development Plan: District 3A- Large residential is recommended. Proposal does not conform to plan but Council approval of IH -35 utility agreement implies flexibility in this area. History: Site is part of the IH 35 Joint Venture Utility Agreement and requires City approval of concept plan to fulfill requirements of contract. At the P & Z meeting of June 4, 1985, the Concept Plan evoked considerable objections from the adjacent home owners (large lot single family area). They protested that developer had sold them lots with assurances that surrounding uses would be similar to theirs. It was their contention that the change of land use to multifamily, office and commercial was detrimental to their property values as well as the quality of life they had been led to expect when they purchased their property. Resubmittal was recommended in order that objections regarding land use incompatibility be addressed. The portions of the plan labeled Section One, Section Two, and Section Three are existing recorded plats. Section Four was a portion of the overall concept plan but has not been filed for record. Analysis: This plan was presented and discussed at both the August and September Planning and Zoning Commission hearings. No action was taken at either of those meetings pending a written opinion from City Attorney relatve to a petition filed in District Court concerning the project. Attorney has advised staff to proceed as normal with this proposal. Concept Plan has not been changed since first put on hold. The proposal submitted covers the non-residential frontage strip of Section One (i.e. Parcel One, Two, and Four), Section Two (i.e. Parcel Three), and Section Four (i.e. Parcel Five and Six). Parcel Three is shown to remain in its current platted configuration with no change in land use. Parcels On Two, and Four are to remain in the same con- figuration the only difference being a greater 101el of specificity of the proposed commercial use and an associated utility allocation. Staff has no problem with Parcel Three as is. The primary concerns relative to Parcels One and Two -are that an attractive "Front" is secured along IH -35, that traffic conflicts be reduced, that buffering of adjacent residential lots be accomplished and that site development be sensitive to the environment. The same general concerns hold for Parcels Four, Five, and Six but are deemed to be mgre critical because of existing homes on adjacent Tots. Therefore, consideration should be given to specific controls for this area in the form of use restrictions, height and setback limits, and a 50 foot wide natural greenbelt. River Hills Page 3 Staff Recommendation: Approval of Concept Plan for land use type with the following conditions: 1. All ordinance requirements being met 2. All provisions of the _Agreement Regarding Water and Wastewater Facilities and Services shall be met 3. The document entitled "Environmental Standards Criteria" shall be used to evaluate future plats and plans 4. Access along IH -35 shall be restricted and coordinated with T.D.H.P.T. Plans 5. A uniform architectural and landscaping theme shall be maintained on lots fronting on IH -35 and implimented through site plan review 6. The following conditions should apply to parcels 4,5,& 6: A. The 50 ft. greenbelt shall remain in its existing natural condition, and be extended through parcel four B. The 100 ft strip adjacent and parallel to this greenbelt shall be used for landscaping, parking and driveways only. Construction in the west half of this area shall avoid the destruction of existing trees C. RM -3 District zoning should be requested upon annexation and used to evaluate site plans 7. Actual density of development shown shall not be approved except in conjunction with site plan review 8. A landscaped buffer shall be established between Parcels One and Two and adjacent residential lots 9.

City Council Action: Withdrawn at Council per request of applicant' MEMO To: Mayor and Members of the City Council From: Edward J. Barry, AICP Director, Divi on of Community Development and Planning Date: October 15, 1985 Re: Legal lot status of Unrestricted Reserve B of Thousand Oaks Subdivision Sometime ago a question arose as to whether or not Unrestricted Reserve B of Thousand Oaks Subdivision was a legal lot in compliance with the requirements of the City of Georgetown's subdivision ordinance. In order to resolve the issue the City Council directed then City Attorney Joe B. McMaster to research the matter and render an opinion. This he did in a letter addressed to the Mayor, City Council and City Manager, dated September 3, 1985. (see attached) Essentially Mr. McMaster said the Unrestricted Reserve B is not a part of the approved subdivision and therefore is required to satisfy the requirements of the City's subdivision regulations by obtaining an approved subdivision plat prior to a building permit or utility service connection being issued for the property. Mr. McMaster's opinion is consistent with the Planning Department's interpretation of the facts and requirements in this case. Consequently, the Planning Department's position has been that a plat for the property known as Unrestricted Reserve B must be submitted and approved before a building permit or utility service connection will be issued for this land. As you also know the City is currently involved in attempting to secure additional road right-of-way off of this tract of land for the Leander Road widening project. In recent weeks discussions have been held with Mr. Jerry Katz, one of the owners of this property, regarding the issues of platting and right-of-way acquisition. Of course Mr. Katz and his partners differ with Mr. McMasters decision in this case and contend that their property is a legal lot and platting is not required. Mr. Katz requested that since Mr. McMaster is no longer City Attorney that this case be re -reviewed by our current legal council Stump & Stump. After discussing the request with City Manager Frank Reed it was decided that further legal review of the matter was not necessary. Mr. Katz was informed of this decision in a letter dated September 27, 1985. The property owner's main concern in this matter is the application of the water note which would be placed on the property through platting. There is also the concern with the amount of time involved in processing a plat. The owners wish to proceed with the development of their commercial project, for which a site plan is currently under review, in the shortest time possible. This memo was prepared to make you aware of the status of this case and also because Mr. Katz has indicated his desire to make a presentation on this matter to the City Council at your meeting of October 22, 1985. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have concerning this case. LAW OFFICES Or JOE 8. MCMASTER, PC JOE 8. NC -ASTER LEE NORTON GAIN CYNTHIA WHITLOW JOHN 6, MCMASTER Mayor Carl J.

Stubblefield Survey, Williamson County, Texas The question has been presented to me for an opinion on whether or not the subject tract is "platted" in compliance withVernon's Annotated Civil Statutes Article 974a, Section 8. Said section prohibits the City from furnishing utilities to any tractwithintheCitywhichhasnotbeenplattedfirst. In my opinion said tract is not platted and therefore 974a, Section 8 prohibits the City from serving said tract withutilitiesuntilitisplatted. The basis for this opinion is as follows: 1) In April, 1980, the 147th Judicial District Court ofTravisCounty, Texas, rendered its judgment holding among otherthingsthefollowing: 1. That Unrestricted Reserve "A" is not a lot withinthesubdivision (Thousand Oaks) and is not included within thePlatofthesubdivision (Thousand Oaks); and 2. That the Unrestricted Reserve "A" was excluded fromtheThousandOaksSubdivisionwithoutrestrictionastothefuturesubdivisionanddevelopmentofUnrestrictedReserve "A", which can be undertaken unilaterally (without the consent fromownersofThousandOaks) by the owner of said tract and; 3. That since Unrestricted Reserve "A" was not a partoftheplatorsubdivision (Thousand Oaks) no consent from theownerofUnrestrictedReserve "A" was required in order forThousandOaksSubdivisiontobevacatedandreplatted. Since the Court interpreted the dedication language andotherfactsandproofsasindicatedaboverelativetoUnrestrictedReserve "A" and since the exact language is found inallthedocumentationsrelativetoUnrestrictedReserve "B" (thetractinquestion) the determinations made by the Court regarding Mayor Carl J. Doering City Counsil Members City Manager September 3, 1985 k Unrestricted Reserve "A" would apply equally to UnrestrictedReserve "B". In short the Court found that Unrestricted ReserveA" was not a part of Thousand Oaks Subdivision but was insteadexcludedtherefrom. Some time ago the owners of UnrestrictedReserve "A" sought to plat (not replat) the 18.5787 acre tractandpresentedtheCitywithacopyoftheCourt's judgment whichIamincludingalongwiththisreportforyourexaminationasthebasisfortheCitvofGeorgetown's considering the 18.5787 acretractasunplattedandsubjecttobeingplatted (not replatted). It is true that the Court judgment mentions onlyUnrestrictedReserve "A" (18.5787 acres) and makes no mention ofUnrestrictedReserve "B" (3.6396 acres) but since the languagethroughoutthehistoryofthededicationprocessrecordsisidenticalwithrespecttothetwotractsandsincebothownersofthetwotracts, Carl Burnett and Wallace Luerson, were parties to that suit, in my opinion, the judgment settlesthematteranditsettlesitonthesideofneitherofthosetractsbeingapartofThousandOaksSubdivision.

McMaster JBM:lp Enclosure CC: Renee Hanson City Planning Department MEMO To: Mayor and Members of the City Council From: Edward J. Barry, AICP Director, Divi Community Development and Pla Date: October 15, 1985 Re: Establishing a Development Regulation Study Committee The City of Georgetown has experienced a great deal of change over the past few years as the result of increased urban development. These changes have forced the community to adopt new ways of doing things. One such example is the method of reviewing and approving requests for development permission. The procedures followed are those that have been established by City Ordinance and which are found to a large extent in the zoning ordinance and subdivision regulations ordinance. Originally the existing zoning ordinance was adopted in 1968 while a new subdivision regulation ordiannce was passed in the early 1980's. Over time these ordinances have been amended in order to keep pace with current needs and address new areas of concern. As these documents are revised there very often arise problems with internal consistency and these are usually not found until after the change is adopted. These problems then require additional amendments to correct the situation. Eventually the problems are compounded and the ordinances become rather unwieldy. In order to correct this type of situation it becomes necessary to address the problem in a comprehensive fashion. The "Goals and Objective" document approved by the City Council contains seventeen separetely listed goal statements relating do the need to address possible deficiencies in our current zoning and subdivision ordinances. Due to the number and range of these goals statements there appears to be an iM entified need to review the adequacy of the City's current development regulations. Even though it would entail an 'enormous amount of work, it is my suggestion that because of the interrelations of these two sets of ordinances we attempt to tackle both of them at the same time. I would recommend the following format be followed in undertaking this project. First, a study committee composed of area citizens representing all segments and interests in the community be appointed to provide direction to the staff in the preparation of the revised ordinances. Attached is a listing of groups/interests to be represented on the committee with the number of persons to be appointed. It is strongly urged that this be an advisory sub -committee of the Planning Commission with one of the Planning Commissioners in the role of Chairing the Committee. If the Council wishes to follow this approach then applications can be taken for membership on this committee in accordance with adopted City policy and the group officially appointed in late November. An organizational meeting would be held in early December to review the general purpose and responsibility of the Committee. The next meeting would most likely be scheduled for after the holidays in early January 1986. At this second meeting the staff would review some particular areas of concerd involving the ordinances and discuss possible elements to be covered in the revised codes. A third session in late January would be to obtain comments from the committee as to what they think needs to be included in the ordinances. Then staff would begin to draft proposed ordinances responding to these comments and general planning requirements. Additional committee meetings could be held as needed during this ordinance preparation stage. Drafts of the ordinances would be scheduled for completion by late April or early May at which time they would be presented to the committee for review and comment. From this point on the process becomes more open ended. Several revisions to the documents may be necessary to reach a generally supported set of proposed regulations. Public comment may also be included at this stage. After the committee reaches a consensus the ordinances would be given to the Planning and Zoning Commission to hold public hearings and make a recommendation to the City Council. The Council may also wish to hold additional public hearings before making a decision about the proposed codes. Of course, at any point in the review process revisions could be made to the proposals. Following this process and with the support of City staff it is felt that we could develop a set of complimentary developmept regulations which will satisfy local citizens concerns and insure the continued quality development of our community. I would be happy to discuss this with you at your conv4nience. 2 Proposed Structure of the Development Regulation Study Committee Interest City k Planning & Zoning Commission City Council Park & Recreation Board Preservation Review Committee Parking & Traffic Committee Airport Board Business & Development Developers Real Estate Banking & Finance Chamber/KGB Downtown Georgetown Assoc.

Barry, AICP-Director, Div is' 1of ommunity Development and Pla i !v Date:October 15, 1985 1 Re: Rezoning of City Property within Block 16 of the Revised City of Georgetown Map As requested at the September 24, 1985 Council Meeting, this office has investigated the feasibility of the referenced action. The purpose of this investigation is: 1. To determine the restrictions currently existing on this property as set forth in the "Urban Renewal Plan" and the method by which these restrictions may be altered. 2. To recommend a course of action regarding the rezoning. 1. The area in question is that portion of Block 16 Revised Georgetown Map which is currently owned by the City. This area is located between 3rd and 4th Streets and between Forest St. and Martin Luther King Ave. (see attached Map 1) This property was apparently acquired through the Urban Renewal Program of the 1970's. The exact boundaries of City owned property in this block have not been determined due to a conflict in information between the City Tax Office and the Williamson County Appraisal District records. This determination is the first step required for any zoning change proposal. However, Block 16 of the City Map corresponds exactly with Block W of the recorded Urban Revewal Plan. A cursory search of the Williamson County Plat records indicates that the resubdivision plat for Block "W" was never filed, but the restrictions on the property as established through the Urban Renewal Plan as adopted by City Council on June 12, 1972 and as amended by City Council on May 13, 1980 do apply and, according to a ruling by the City Attorney,in a letter dated May 28, 1985, do superceed the City Zoning Ordinance. The following is a summary of existing restrictions: 1. Zoning District is RL -Residential which is generally restricted as "no building or land shall be used except for uses allowed in the RS District of the City of Georgetown Zoning Ordinance." For a complete list of these uses see the attached copy of Zoning Ordinance attached. The following is a summary of maximum allowable restrictions under the Urban Renewal Plan: I. Zoning District is which is generally land shall be used, shall be erected or otherwise provided allowed in the C-1 Zoning Ordinance." designated as B -Commercial restricted as "no building or and no building hereafter structurally altered unless in this plan, except for uses District of the City of Georgetown For a complete list of these uses see copy of Zoning Ordinances attached. It should be noted that public use buildings such as the proposed County Judical Annex are allowed under both the above City Zoning Districts. This land is currently RS through the City Zoning scheme. The City owned property in question is currently zoned RL by the Urban Renewal Plan. Thus the intended use by the county would be a use permitted by right at the present time and negating the need to rezone the property. While reclassification to a B district as outlined in the Urban Renewal Plan is not required to accomodate the judicial annex, if the property was rezoned" as such the proposed use would still be allowed. The method for amending the Urban Renewal Plan "zoning" classification is established by the Plan as having to follow the City zoning amendment process as set forth in the City's adopted zoning ordinance. However, there is question as to whether or not the Urban Renewal scheme can be amended only within the limits of the classification system imposed by the Urban Renewal Plan or if we can change the Urban Renewal districts to one of the zones under the City zoning format (i.e. can we only change from RL to RH or B -Urban Renewal Plan System or is it possible to go from RL/RH/B - Urban Renewal to RM-3/C2A/C2B/I as allowed by Georgetown's zoning ordinance.) Consequently, a more thorough analysis of the Urban Renewal Plan and possibly consultation with the City Attorney will be required to determine if the standard District Amendment process is sufficient or if other criteria must be followed. 2. Regarding a recommended course of action relative to the rezoning, it appears that rezoning of this area is not required to allow the use currently being proposed by the County. Furthermore, rezoning to the highest designation allowed within the Urban Renewal Area would permit some uses which would be both obnoxious to surrounding residential areas and inconsistent with any plans to create a "Planned District" which uses the proposed judicial annex as the "anchor" and encourages compatible support uses physically limited by a pedestrian corridor. Additionally, it would be inconsistent with good zoning practice to rezone small portions of the block as commercial, leaving others as residential. Therefore, if the City approves a zoning change on its own property, then a similar zoning change approval would be expected for other lots within the general area. Therefore, any changes in the zoning of the City property within Block 16 of the Revised City of Georgetown Map is not recommended unless the change is consistant with an overall development plan as proposed with the rezoning proposal for 414 Rock St, and is defined by the area from 3th Street to the San Gabriel River between Austin Ave and Martin Luther King Drive. s v a y. 77-s1 I ' Li C, pas a F t r d r Fs -- F Ct r.. tJ Jr1 1J.__.._._ _ _ _.__1 L 70 I U 9 ? f•• 70 upy r 70 _ jTp AI gpUI111 1 il...l,...i ll l i Section 2.02: R -S Single -Family District Regulations.' r 2.0201 Use Regulations.

Barry, AICP -JDir, Division of ity Development and Planning Date: October 16, 1985 Re: River Oaks of Georgetown Office Park - Concept Plan Applicant for the referenced project which was conditionally approved by Council on June 25, 1985 has requested that the project be reconsidered in order to modify the conditions of approval associated with the plat. The applicant contends that he was unaware that any of the comments of the planning report (see copy attached) were attached as conditions of plan approval. It appears that this "misunderstanding" has arisen primarily due to the fact that the Council minutes of the June 11, 1985 meeting indicated that no conditions of approval were attached to the Concept Plan for River Oaks - San Gabriel Plaza which lies immediately adjacent and south of the Office Park (see copy attached).

Barry, AICP - Direct 0 ivision of Commun Development and Planning Date: October 16, 1985 Re: Proposed Annexation - IH 35 North from existing City Limits to Highway 195 Per Council request of October 2, 1985 this office has investigated the feasibility of the referenced action. As shown on the attached maps there is a section of the IH -35 R.O.W. which is less than the required 500 foot width. Thus, in order to conform to the criteria of the Municiple Annexation Act the annexation of some privately owned land will be needed. Two basic options in this regard are avail- able. One is to annex the full width needed (i.e. 34 ft) from one side of the highway. The other is to annex a portion from each side (for example, 17 ft. from each side). A field inspection of this area indicates that the subject property each side of IH -35 is currently undeveloped farm land. Another restriction on the annexation proposed involves the requirement that all territory annexed must first be within a municipalities E.T.J. Thus the portion of the area proposed for annexation which lies roughly north of Berry's Creek Bridge to Highway 195 will need to be annexed under separate ordinance. The minimum time separation between the two annexation ordinances is not specified in the Municiple Annexation Act and thus may be subject to an interpretation by T.D.C.A. in the event of a protest to this annexation. n. • •._' ''t `jtl ia! ,v;:'f s^`4°' 'J;.r,J'/ ' .^-.Gtc _ ` ,:, 'i.t qv' to 4 tog T Oil rL, J F kk J 1( ' kms' atc ""'! fir rm'p •• - > Y 6.

Section 5.01-12 Reverse Curves: Eliminate the required 100 ft. tangent between reverse curves - Ridge Run Drive, Ridge Run Court, Rimrock Dr. 2. Section 5.02-8.c. Front Facing: Allow adjacent lots to be placed at right angles - Block "Y", Lots 14-17 and 33-35 Block "W", Lots 32-34. RIVER RIDGE SECTIONS THREE B AND THREE C - FINAL PLATS page2 Facts: Location: West of River Ridge Two between Leander Road and the South fork San Gabriel River. Is in the E.T.J. and Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. Surrounding Uses: Single family to the east; south and west- Riverview Estates; undeveloped to the north. Proposed Use: Section III B - 90 single family lots, with a density of 3.9 dwelling units/acre. Section III C - 72 single family lots with a density of 3.2 dwelling units/acre. Development Plan: District 9-B. Normal residential is recommended by the plan. Proposal conforms to the plan. History: The preliminary plat of River Ridge III was passed on June 25, 1985 by the City Council. Comments I-V have been satisfactorily addressed; comments VI and VII to be completed with construct- ion stage. The following variances were granted at preliminary plat stage: B. Street Centerline Radii less than 800' - River Ridge Dr. D. Block length over 1200 feet - Block "V" E. Cul-de-sac in excess of 600 feet -River View Cove. F. Exceed depth to width ratio- Lots 7-21, Block U (III C); Lots 31-32, Block Y (III B) G. Lots at right angles- Block "U", Lots 22, 27 (III C);Block "V", Lot 21-23 (III C); Block "V" Lot 10 (III B). Analysis: A condition of approval of preliminary plat was to redesign where feasible" streets with reverse curves to provide the required 100' tangent between curves. Some of these situations have been eliminated, but three instances remain. City engineer has recommended that these curves be redesigned to provide some tangent even if the full 100 ft. cannot be met. Another preliminary condition was that those lots placed at right angles in Block "W" and Block "Y" be redesigned to avoid this situation. In Block "W" Lot 33 can easily be enlarged so that this is eliminated with the resulting loss in area being absorbed by Lots 37 through 34 but with no loss in number of lots. In Block "Y" the elimination of Lots 14 and 17 and redistribution of area gained through other lots on the block can achieve elimination of lots at right angles. Lots 33-34 cannot be readily redesigned to avoid this situation, however the elimiation of one lot would increase the buildable area to more closely approximate other lots in the block. RIVER RIDGE SECTIONS THREE B & C page 3 A significant change has been made on the final plats for both subdivisions, in that the flood plain area formerly shown as common area/park has been eliminated. Applicant has indicated that this was done to avoid the need to establish a Homeowners Association for future maintenance of the area, and to avoid limiting its use by the general public. Applicant desires to dedicate this area to City for a public park.However, it seems unlikely that City will accept such dedication until the area is annexed. Therefore, the issue becomes what is the best mechanism to accomplish this goal. It appears that rather than leave this as unplatted area it would be better to designate it as a restricted lot with the 50 ft. frontage on River Down Road as shown on plat of Section Three C. The lot should be labled as Flood Plain, Drainage and Access Easement. This provides continuity with the similar situation in River Ridge Two and provides an accurate legal description for future acceptance as a public park. Staff Recommendation: Approval of the plat of River Ridge Section Three B with the following conditions: 1. All ordinance requirements shall be met, 2. Drainage Requirements shall be met, 3. Utilities being adequate, 4. A Water Pollution Abatement Plan being approved by T.D.W.R., 5. Street, lot and utility layouts shall tie in to proposed Riverview Estates Subdivision, 6. Acknowledgment that Leander Road elevated tank is required to serve this development, 7. Downstream improvments to Smith Branch Sewer Interceptor may be required, 8.

Surrounding Uses: Undeveloped land and large lot single-familyandduplexresidential Proposed Use: 15.2 acres of multi -family, 4.7 acreas ofprofessionaloffice, 7.6 acres of local retailcommercial, 2.5 acres of commercial, and27.7 acres of large lot single family residential. River Hills Page 2 Development Plan: District 3A- Large residential is recommended. Proposal does not conform to plan but Council approval of IH -35 utility agreement implies flexibility in this area. History: Site is part of the IH 35 Joigt Venture Utility Agreement and requires City approval of concept plan to fulfill requirements of contract. At the P & Z meeting of June 4, 1985, the Concept Plan evoked considerable objections from the adjacent home owners (large lot single family area). They protested that developer had sold them lots with assurances that surrounding uses would be similar to theirs. It was their contention that the change of land use to multifamily, office and commercial was detrimental to their property values as well as the quality of life they had been led to expect when they purchased their property. Resubmittal was recommended in order that objections regarding land use incompatibility be addressed. The portions of the plan labeled Section One, Section Two, and Section Three are existing recorded plats. Section Four was a portion of the overall concept plan but has not been filed for record. Analysis: This plan was presented and discussed at both the August and September Planning and Zoning Commission hearings. No action was taken at either of those meetings pending a written opinion from City Attorney relatve to a petition filed in District Court concerning the project. Attorney has advised staff to proceed as normal with this proposal. Concept Plan has not been changed since first put on hold. The proposal submitted covers the non-residential frontage strip of Section One (i.e. Parcel One, Two, and Four), Section Two (i.e. Parcel Three), and Section Four (i.e. Parcel Five and Six). Parcel Three is shown to remain in its current platted configuration with no change in land use. Parcels Ones Two, and Four are to remain in the same con- figuration the only difference being a greater level of specificity of the proposed commercial use and an associated utility allocation. Staff has no problem with Parcel Three as is. The primary concerns relative to Parcels One and Two are that an attractive "Front" is secured along IH -35, that traffic conflicts be reduced, that buffering of adjacent residential lots be accomplished and that site development be sensitive to the environment. The same general concerns hold for Parcels Four, Five, and Six but are deemed to be mare critical because of existing homes on adjacent lots. Therefore, considerationshouldbegiventospecificcontrolsforthisareaintheformofuserestrictions, height and setbabk limits, and a 50 foot wide natural greenbelt.

N. 971 P NNN9TD11 9NAVEL- 9EON wN MI l ,J a/ PIT _ t r Location Map 1"= 2000' Applicant: The Jefferson Group PO BOX 3883 Beaumont, Tx 77704 409 842-2358 Agent: Turley Associates, Inc 301 N. 3rd St Temple, Tx 76501 817 773-2400 Request: Consideration of Concept Plan for Pecan Branch a 120.63 acre subdivision Facts: Location: Northeast corner of the intersection of F.M. 971 and County Road 152. Surrounding Uses: Agricultural and large lot residences and proposed industrial park Proposed Use: 340 multifamily units at a density of 20 dwelling units/acre; 62 duplex residential units at a density of 6.9 dwelling units/acre; 155 patio homes at a density of 6.3 dwelling units/acre; and 160 single family residences at a density of 4 units/acre; a total of 717 units are proposed at an average density of 6.9 dwelling units/residential acre. PECAN BRANCH Page 2 Development Plan: District 5C. Area is not specified in the development plan but public use and normal single family residential use at 4 units/acre is recommended for adjacent areas. The proposed uses are not in conformance with the plan for adjacent areas. Analysis: Density- The gross overall density of this subdivision is 5.94 dwelling units/acre. Excluding the 16.7 acres of proposed commercial use, the density of the proposal is 6.9 dwelling units per acre. The development plan recommends 4 dwelling units/acre on adjacent land; to reach this density a reduction from 717 units to 483 dwelling units would be required. High density development generally reduces the costs of service provision on a per unit basis for both the developer and consumer. These savings are usually countered by the expense incurred by the public sector through the resulting increased demand placed on infrastructure (roads, utilities, etc.) and service (police, fire, etc.) functions as well as the natural environment. High density housing achieves efficiencies for the developers with minimal impact on the environment and public expenditures only when enough open space is provided to maintain overall densities at a reasonable level. While densities in excess of those set out in the development plan have been approved in the past, the deviations have complicated utility planning and in conjunction with widespread non- contiguous development proposals have contributed to existing water distribution and waste water collection problems. Land Use- While the developers of this tract have set aside 13.3 acres of "park" land, 100% of this land is within a narrow belt of the flood plain adjacent to single family residents. To serve the needs of the more intensively developed portion of the tract, a centrally located park is desireable. The parkland dedication ordinance proposed in the City's Parks and Recreation Plan does not consider flood plain land to be acceptable park land. Assuming an overall density of 4 units/acre, the proposed ordinance would require a park site of 3.62 acres outside of the floodplain. Provision of this park land, while not meeting the 5 acre minimum recommended by the study, would provide a site large enough for a large playing field and a playground/picnic area. The commercial lots proposed on the western portion of this tract should be designed to primarily serve the residential neighborhood proposed. In general 3-52 of a 100 acre residential tract should be dedicated to local PECAN BRANCH Page 3 commercial use. The developer's proposal of almost 14% of the 120 acre tract for commercial purposes exceeds this standard. Due to the relatively isolated nature and high populations proposed for Crystal Knoll Terrace and Pecan Branch, use of some of the proposed commercial tract for a day care center would seem appropriate. The proposal requests permission to develop patio homes on 4500 square foot lots. Deviation from the required 6000 square foot lots would necessitate the formation of a P.U.D. However, increasing lot sizes would reduce the overall density and reduce the need for P.U.D. restriction. Infrastructure- Road widening dedications will be required along both FM 971 (20 ft) and County Road 151 15 ft). Improvements to County Road 152 should be required in conjunction with this development. Interior streets should be redesigned to meet ordinance requirements and to provide access across Pecan Branch to the north. Failure to provide this access would significantly reduce accessibility for future development in this area. City of Georgetown utilities are requested on the application. Due to system wide supply problems, the water availability note shall apply. While the developer is assisting the City in the development of a well, the work was done so that another subdivision, Crystal Knoll Terrace P.U.D. could be served before the new water treatment plant becomes operational. Any capacity from the well that is allocated to this subdivision should be the difference between the peak demand of Crystal Knoll and the average yield of the well. The parameters of this allocation should be approved before the preliminary plat is submitted. According to City Engineers comments, the service population assuming full build out of all approved final plats to date exceeds the design capacity of the wastewater treatment plant. The addition of Pecan Branch to this demand will increase this differential by at least 10% of current capacity. When compared against the sewer service demand estimated from total building permits issued through March, 1985 approximately 15% of the treatment capacity is available. Full build out of Pecan Branch Subdivision will use about 60% of the remaining treatment capacity. It also seems likely that this proposal will require the addition of another lift station to the wastewater system. MOKAN- On July 9, 1985 the City Council adopted a resolution which: 1.) Agreed to support the development of a facility known as the Mokan transportation corridor, 2.) Agreed to furnish all required right-of-way and adjust all utilities not furnished or adjusted by the Mokan transportation corporation. The conceptual roadway alignment man dated January 10, 1985 (See attached map) show this future expressway with proposed R.O.W. of 300 to 400 feet bisecting the proposed subdivision. Applicant should begin negotiation with the transportation corporation to determine impact on this proposal. Applicant should also consider voluntary addition to Georgetown's E.T.J. Pecan Branch Page 4 The concept plan should be redesigned to address the following comments and resubmitted with the preliminary plat. 1. All ordinance requirements shall be met, 2. Drainage requirements shall be met, 3. Utilities being adequate, 4. A Water Pollution Abatement Plan being approved by T.D.W.R., 5. Gross overall density should be reduced to 4 dwelling units/acre, 6. Additional park land should be developed central to the residential areas, 7. A 20 ft. road widening easement shall be required along FM 971, 8. A 15 ft. road widening easement and roadway improvements to County Road 152 shall be required, 9. Commercial acreage should be reduced to approximately 10% of the site and a day care facility provided, unless more area can be justified by applicant, 10. The concept of lots less than 6000 sq. ft. shall not be approved unless justified with appropriate information and established design controls, 11. One east/west and one north/south secondary collector street shall be provided with the north/south street crossing Pecan Branch,providing access to future development to the north. 12. Impact o f proposed Mokan Transit Corridor should be ascertained prior to submittal of preliminary plat. P & Z Recommendation: (3-0) Approved :conditional upon above comments being satisfied. NOTE: At P&Z hearing applicant indicated that he would be willing to develop this project under the "PUD Ordinance".and provide a "substantial" amenities packaee in exchange for approval of an increase in gross density from 4 dwelling units/acre to that shown on the concept submitted which is approximately 6 dwelling units/acre. City Council Action: (5-0) Approval as recommended above with the exception that comment X15 shall be amended to read "Gross overall density should conform to P.U.D. Ordinance requirements and the project shall be designated as a P.U.D."

P S Z Recommendation: (4-0) 1 abstention Approved conditional upon above comments being met. Edenparc - page 3 development", these forecasts appear to be approaching reality with the advent of Edenparc. The City's acceptance of such a development in this area will help to control growth through the issuance of utility and building permits. However, evaluating the demands on its water and wastewater systems - which far outstrip even the most recent forecasts - creates problems for utility planning which only a much more specific description of actual demands and the time of construction can alleviate. The proposed residential densities average 21 dwelling units/acre for multi -family and 8 dwelling units/acre for single family, the latter being twice the Development Plan standard for normal residential. The location of such intensive land use bordering the Smith Branch flood plain in an area immediately upsteam of its confluence with the San Gabriel River, is further complicated by the steep slopes which constitute a significant percentage of the 31.50 acre "Village Cluster" area. The positioning of the 14.25 acre Multi -family tract, with its associated parking lots and other impervious coverage, immediately above this steep area, would seem to create potential hazards in runoff especially when added to the highly dense single-family (Village cluster) area below. A reduction in the number of dwelling units seems to be reasonable due to topographic constraints and extremely close scrutiny given to drainage and erosion control, expecially from the multi -family units. Satisfactory determination of these conditions will require detailed site plan review. The City engineers have found the street network to be insufficient to handle the amount of traffic generated, particularly until such time as the completion of MOKAN and the extensions of Riverparc Drive to the east and west provides additional access. They recommend the following changes and/or additions regarding roadways: 1) A minimum two-lane extension from Hwy 29 be constructed until the MOKAN roadway is built. 2) Jeremy Ave, be expanded to 80 feet of R.O.W. and shifted to the east. 3) Extending Edenparc Drive with a 50' R.O.W. from Parc Drive to Riverparc Drive 4) A 60 ft. R.O.W. east -west roadway be provided between the 7.35 acre multi -family tract through the 17.45 acre Commercial tract from Reinhardt Blvd. to MOKAN R.O.W. 5) Pascale Dr•be upgraded to 60' R.O.W. 6) The 19.2 acre "Village Cluster" tract be provided with a second access.
