Planning Commission clears Windridge Unit 1 final plat and Unit 2 preliminary plat with standard conditions

The Kerrville Planning and Zoning Commission approved the Windridge Unit 1 final plat and the Windridge Unit 2 preliminary plat, subject to staff-recommended conditions that must be satisfied before final recording and building permits.

Why it matters: The approvals allow the developer to proceed to the next stages of development while ensuring required public-safety and utility conditions are met. Staff emphasized these approvals are consistent with the previously approved preliminary plat and spelled out a checklist of items to complete before recording.

What the staff and commission said: Planning staff described Unit 1 as consistent with the previously approved preliminary plat and listed conditions including recording the final plat, address assignment, completion of civil infrastructure for fire safety, and confirmation that the Travis Booster Station has capacity to supply domestic water service for Unit 1. For Unit 2 (preliminary plat), staff recommended that the developer obtain an adequate facilities plan approval, coordinate with the Fire Department on emergency access as the project phases, secure civil construction plan approvals prior to final plat, and complete the standard steps before building permits.

Outcome and next steps: The Commission approved both items by motion and second; staff will verify completion of the listed conditions before recording plats and before issuing building permits. The civil plans and final submittals will be reviewed by engineering and building staff per typical process.

Ending: The approvals allow the Windridge development to continue through civil construction and permitting, with staff oversight to confirm compliance with fire, water and infrastructure requirements.
