Title
Approving a Preliminary Plan for Carmel West Phase 2; a 191.623-acre tract of land out of the Joseph Weihl Survey No. 8, Abstract No. 802 and the William Caldwell Survey No. 66, Abstract No. 162 in Travis County, Texas.
Summary
The property is located within the city limits, generally east of Weiss Lane, west of a tributary of Wilbarger Creek, north of Cameron Road, south of Jesse Bohls, generally southeast of Weiss High School. The land encompassing the overall Carmel development, formally known as “Wildflower”, has been located in the City’s ETJ until recently, and planned as a single family development within a Municipal Utility District (MUD).

A preliminary plan called Carmel West Phase 1 was approved in December 2016, and included 282 single-family lots located generally along the south and west boundary of Weiss Lane High School property, west of Wilbarger Creek. The proposed preliminary plan is a continuation of what the development agreement identifies as “Phase 1”, located west of Wilbarger Creek.

Land within the proposed preliminary plan is located in the SF-R and SF-MU districts, providing a variety of lot sizes and opportunities for a diversity of housing types. A total of 458 lots are proposed in the SF-R distri...
