Victoria County Commissioners Court on July 7 approved a plat‑exemption request for Garland R. Smith Jr. and Anna M. Smith at 1774 Reineke Road (Precinct 2), finding the request complies with the county’s development standards and Texas Local Government Code Chapter 232, Section 15, and imposing standard conditions on the exemption.
Avery, a county planning staff member, told the court the exemption was reviewed and found to comply with section 1.c.3 of the Victoria County Development Standards Manual (the exemption that permits boundary adjustments between adjacent landowners when the same number of tracts remains). Avery recommended approval and listed required conditions: secure and verify 911 addresses with the Golden Crescent Regional Planning Commission; no future tracts created by this action shall be less than one acre (excluding easements); all revised deeds and ingress/egress easements must be filed with the county clerk’s public records; each tract must have its own water well and on‑site sanitary sewer facility; and each tract must have public right‑of‑way frontage or access through an ingress/egress easement.
A court member moved for approval, a second was made, and the motion carried by voice vote with no oppositions recorded in the minutes. The approval was made under the allowed exemption in the county development standards manual and under the cited Texas Local Government Code provisions; staff will ensure the listed conditions are met before recording revisions to property records.
No variances to setback or subdivision standards were discussed at the meeting.
