Commissioners approve three final plats for small subdivisions in Precinct 4 and a plat revision in Precinct 2
Summary
The court unanimously approved final plats for Arlange Subdivision and C and R Lang Subdivision (both one-lot plats in Precinct 4) and a revision to Elm Pass Ranch No. 2 (lots 105, 107–115) that converts a portion of right-of-way from public to private use and reduces county-maintained road length.
Kerr County Commissioners on Tuesday approved several land-division matters, including two one-lot final plats in Precinct 4 and a revision of a plat in Precinct 2.
County Engineer presented the Arlange Subdivision final plat and the C and R Lang Subdivision final plat. Each creates a single lot of roughly five acres on Lower Reservation Road and relies on a submitted report of an existing well as credible evidence of water availability; the Headwaters Groundwater Conservation District has signed both plats. Because each proposal was a single-lot subdivision, the court accepted credible evidence in lieu of a formal water-availability study and approved both final plats unanimously.
The court also approved a revision of plat for Elm Pass Ranch Number 2, lots 105 and 107 through 115, which revises portions of the easement for Ingot/Lehman Drive and converts a portion of the public right-of-way to private use. The revision reduces the length of county-maintained roadway by approximately 500 feet and includes an added area reserved for a future turnaround if required. A public hearing on that matter occurred April 28; the county engineer recommended approval and the court approved the revision unanimously.
Commissioners noted the county—s subdivision rules include an exception for small, single-lot developments and that the credible-evidence approach has been used to minimize unnecessary expense for rural one-lot plats.
