Title
Approving a Preliminary Plat for Walden Square, 3 tracts of land totaled at 14.18 acres out of the Henry Blessing Survey No. 3, Abstract No. 99, in Pflugerville, Texas. (PP1410-01)
Summary
The proposed preliminary plan is comprised of 3 tracts totaling 14.18 acres and will establish sixty nine (69) single family lots located south of Pfennig Lane and just east of Rocky Creek Dr. The average lot size is 5,000 square feet in size and meets all requirements.
Approval by the administration has been granted for the site to meet the requirement of Subchapter 15 (X) (3) (t) that "residential subdivisions shall have at least one street stubbed out into every adjacent property which has not been subdivided and is not recorded in County records, unless determined otherwise by the Administrator." The lot in question is noted on the preliminary plat as 0.81 acres owned by Jill Collins and Jonea Raney, Document number 2007190869. A connection through this lot would be a detriment to the 0.81 acre lot as the roadway would bisect the property and create very shallow lots. The 0.81 acre property is served with a 30 foot public access easement located along the eastern lot line that will continue to serve as access to the tract.
Compliance with Subchapter 15 (x) (3) (t) would result in an unnecessary hardship of the proposed plan and future development of the tract. The request for a variance will not contradict the welfare of the general public.
Staff Recommendation
The proposed subdivision meets the minimum state and local requirements and staff recommends approval of the Walden Square Preliminary Plan.
