Planning commission approves final plats for Pumalala Addition Lot 1 and London Town Unit 12
Summary
The City Planning Commission approved two final plats on the consent agenda — Pumalala Addition Lot 1 (2.06 acres) and London Town Unit 12 (5.69 acres) — after staff said both meet the Unified Development Code and Texas Local Government Code. Commissioners asked about lot shapes, future rezoning and public improvements such as a bridge crossing.
The City Planning Commission approved final plats for Pumalala Addition Lot 1 and London Town Unit 12 at its meeting after staff said both plats meet the requirements of the local development code and state law.
Andrew Demaswood, Development Services, presented the consent agenda items, describing item 2 as “Pumalala addition lot 1, a final of 2.06 acres, and item 3, London Town unit 12, a final plat of 5.69 acres.” He told commissioners, “Staff recommends approval of both of these plats as they meet the requirements of the UDC and the Texas local government code.”
The recommendation led to questions from Commissioner Miller about several larger, irregularly shaped lots in London Town Unit 12. “I'm just curious what those are gonna be used for because they're a lot larger than just your, you know, RS 4.5 lots,” Miller said. Demaswood replied that, unless marked nonbuildable, the lots “are eligible for to be single family homes as the property zone r s 4.5,” and that developers could return later to request rezoning.
Miller also asked whether a bridge over a nearby ditch would be constructed to connect to Lady Claudia. Demaswood said that crossing would be handled as a separate public improvement: “that would be a separate public improvement that would happen after the approval of the plat.” He added that public-improvement plans — including any right-of-way or bridge design and funding — are reviewed during the public improvement stage following plat approval.
With no public commenters on the items, the commission moved and seconded approval of the consent agenda. A voice vote followed with chair and commissioners answering “Aye,” and the motion passed.
The approvals clear the plats to proceed to any subsequent public-improvement and building-permit stages required by the Unified Development Code and applicable state rules. Specific timelines for infrastructure work and any rezoning requests were not specified during the meeting.
