Jessica, city staff, presented the preliminary plat as the first residential section of the Rye Hill development and explained that a preliminary plat lays out lots and streets to confirm minimum lot sizes and right-of-way widths. The section covers 61.74 acres and proposes 166 residential lots, 18 reserves and seven blocks; proposed lot widths include 40-, 50- and 65-foot lots, with corner lots carrying an additional 10 feet.

Staff said the larger Rye Hill development is approximately 960 acres overall and will be a mixed-use project that includes about 2,335 single-family and Del Webb residential lots and roughly 60 acres of commercial land north of FM 2759. The Del Webb portion is the brighter-yellow area on the plan and is an age-restricted, gated community limited to residents 55 and older; municipal code and the development agreement identify different minimum lot standards for the Del Webb lots versus the non–age-restricted single-family lots.

Jessica described required box exhibits for the preliminary plat (to show minimum lot widths at the front building line for nonperpendicular lots) and noted a repeated reserve label across the two-sheet plat; staff confirmed reserve E spans both sheets and the correct reserve count for the section is 18. The commission reviewed questions about what “restricted reserve” means for private/emergency access and staff confirmed the gated nature of the development and the intended access uses.

Staff recommended approval with the standard options available to the commission (approve, approve with conditions, or disapprove with explanation). A motion to recommend approval was made and seconded; the transcript records the motion passed but does not include a roll-call tally for this item.

Discussion vs. decision: the discussion focused on plat technicalities (box exhibits, reserve counts, access restrictions) and age restrictions for Del Webb lots; the commission’s action was a recommendation to City Council to allow the developer to proceed toward final plat submittal and subsequent permitting steps.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Sugar Land: Planning and Zoning Meeting - April 24th 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the Del Webb Sugar Land at Rye Hill Section 1 preliminary plat, a 61.74-acre first residential section with 166 lots.

Jessica, city staff, told commissioners the extension request is procedural: under the city’s development code a final development plan (FDP) expires if a building permit is not issued within two years of plan approval unless the commission recommends an extension and council approves it. City Council approved the FDP on May 16, 2023, and the plan is set to expire on May 16, 2025; the requested extension would move expiration to May 16, 2026.

The project as approved would include 371 multifamily units (one- and two-bedroom), five ground-floor live-work units along Creek Bend Drive, a structured parking garage integrated within the building, a coworking/office space, a leasing office with fitness and gaming amenities, a café/coffee shop, and a resident dog park. Jessica said the applicant has concurrent reviews under way for a minor plat, site plan and building permit, but the building permit cannot be approved until a minor plat is recorded and a site plan is approved; the applicant is working through an easement abandonment for a CenterPoint easement that runs through the property.

Staff recommended approval of the one-year extension to City Council, citing the pending easement action and the status of permit reviews. The commission made a motion to recommend approval and the motion passed; the transcript does not record the motion maker, the seconder, or a roll-call tally for this item.

Discussion vs. decision: commissioners asked clarifying questions about unit counts and project status; staff confirmed the development is allowed up to 380 dwelling units and that the applicant’s current proposal lists 371 units with flexibility tied to the live-work/commercial conversion. No changes to Ordinance No. 2305 were proposed; the extension only delays the FDP’s expiration date.

The commission’s recommendation will be forwarded to Sugar Land City Council for final action.","The Sugar Land Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend a one-year extension of Ordinance No. 2305, which would move the Pearl at Lake Pointe final development plan expiration date from May 16, 2025, to May 16, 2026. Staff said the delay is tied to easement abandonment required before building permits can be issued.","actionData","errors"]
