Commission backs TFCC Coyote LLC zoning amendment to swap townhomes for larger single‑family lots; related replats approved
Summary
The Planning and Zoning Commission on Aug. 4 recommended approval of a planned‑development amendment for TFCC Coyote LLC to replace a portion of 93 townhome lots with 49 larger single‑family detached (SF60) lots and approved related replat and preliminary‑plat items for Coyote Meadows.
The City of Anna Planning and Zoning Commission on Aug. 4 recommended approval of an amendment to an existing planned development for property owned by TFCC Coyote LLC that would convert a portion of a previously approved townhome product (single‑family attached) to single‑family detached (SF60) lots.
Planning staff said the proposal would reduce density in the affected area — from 93 townhome lots to 49 single‑family detached lots — by creating larger lots. Staff described three minor text amendments associated with the planned‑development change: correcting wording that currently reads as a "maximum number of SF60 lots as 250" (staff said the intent was to reference a minimum), adjusting lot‑depth standards (the area had been platted as an SF‑townhome product with shorter depth), and ensuring lot areas meet a 120‑foot depth and 6,000‑square‑foot area where required. Staff recommended approval of the ordinance amendment as submitted, and noted the request conformed to the future land‑use plan and the downtown master plan.
The commission opened the public hearing; no public comments or speaker cards were received. Commissioners asked technical questions about street connections and plan details; staff replied that a road connection to FM 2862 had been removed and a street alignment shifted during civil plan revisions, and that one of the previously requested over‑length street waivers had been handled in earlier civil plans.
Related plat items were considered in sequence. The commission held a public hearing for Coyote Meadows Phase 1C (a replat) because that plat had already been recorded; staff said it is associated with the zoning request and recommended approval. The commission also considered Coyote Meadows Phase 2B (preliminary plat), which staff said does not require a public hearing because it has not yet been filed; staff recommended approval contingent on the zoning amendment. Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the zoning amendment, the Phase 1C replat and the Phase 2B preliminary plat; roll‑call votes recorded support from the commissioners present and the motions passed.
Ending: Staff will forward the commission's recommendations to City Council where required for final action on zoning and any recorded‑plat corrections.
