The commission also approved an extension for site development case SDD-23-0105 (Treviso Village C store), identified by the same appraisal‑district parcel number in the staff reading and commonly known as 2940 Treviso Parkway.

Commissioner Morales moved to approve items 6 and 7 on the consent agenda together earlier and later moved the approvals for items 8 and 9 after those items were pulled for separate votes. Commissioner Colon seconded the motion on items 8 and 9; both motions passed unanimously.

Justin Hunt, planning department staff, said the request is the second step in the subdivision process and the first step in the tree‑removal review. The project covers approximately 289 acres southeast of the Ronald Reagan Boulevard and Journey Parkway intersection in Williamson County. The preliminary plat includes nine commercial lots and 554 residential lots, to be developed in four phases.

Hunt told the commission the application proposes removal of heritage trees and significant trees while preserving a majority of on‑site trees. He reported that, in the presenter’s summary, the project would remove 36 heritage trees totaling 1,244.5 caliper inches and would preserve 74.3% of heritage‑tree caliper (3,698.5 caliper inches preserved). He also summarized that 88 significant trees were proposed for removal totaling 4,290 caliper inches and that the project would preserve 69% of significant trees (9,570 caliper inches total preserved). On a later slide the presenter listed a site total of 55 heritage trees, with 35 removed and 19 saved (the presenter’s slide and spoken counts vary slightly); significant trees were described as 669 total, with 31% (188 trees) removed and 69% (481 trees) saved. The planning staff said most removals are attributed to public‑utility easements, rights‑of‑way or grading needs.

Applicant representative John Bonin said the project team has worked with staff since the zoning approval and that they had adjusted the design to work around existing trees where possible.

Commission discussion was broadly supportive of the preservation percentages; several commissioners encouraged saving any additional trees where feasible. Commissioner Rauce moved to approve; Vice Chair Colomba seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

The record shows commission review as required by Article 6, Section 1(c)(5) of the composite zoning ordinance for trees over specified caliper sizes and that final heritage‑tree removal decisions will be reviewed by City Council. Staff said administrative approval of the preliminary plat may follow once the tree‑removal process is completed.

Staff said the applicant has submitted a request to change the site’s zoning from interim SFR-1-B (single-family rural) to SFR-2-B (single-family rural) for seven parcels totaling about 337.292 acres west of Nameless Road. Marilee Van Lubin, planning department staff, told the commission the annexation must be approved before the zoning request may be acted on by City Council and that a resolution to adopt an annexation schedule is scheduled to be heard by council on March 6.

The zoning request would allow development of a large-lot single-family neighborhood; staff said the proposal is compatible with the future land-use category referenced in the staff report and recommended approval contingent on annexation. The applicant, Luke Carraway, president of Viewpoint Engineering, said the development would build roughly 205 lots at about 1 acre each; he said the project proposes to extend water service to the site but that most lots would use on-site septic systems. Carraway described the homes as higher-end and estimated prices (as his observation) roughly in a $1 million–$2 million range.

During discussion, several commissioners voiced no objection. One commissioner noted the property’s proximity to the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge and urged preserving mature junipers as well as hardwoods when tree-removal permits are submitted. The applicant said large-lot development typically limits grading and that preserving wooded vegetation is a priority for the proposed community.

Vice Chair Colomba moved to approve the rezoning; Commissioner Landrip seconded. The motion passed unanimously.

Because staff recommended approval only after annexation, the decision recorded by the commission will not be final until the City Council completes the annexation process and acts on the zoning ordinance. The staff report noted that utility extensions (water) will be required and that wastewater is proposed to be handled by septic on individual lots.
