Commission approves replat to create three lots in R-2 district; Lot 1R shown as 1.169 acres
Summary
The City of Joshua Planning and Zoning Commission approved a replat to split a single lot into three R-2 lots to allow zero-lot-line single-family construction; staff said utilities and floodplain surveys are in place.
The City of Joshua Planning and Zoning Commission approved a replat to divide an existing lot into three separate R-2 (moderate-density residential) lots, enabling construction of zero-lot-line single-family detached units.
Planning staff reported the subject property is zoned R-2 and that a minor plat had been approved in August 2023. The replat will create three lots; staff said Lot 1R will be 1.169 acres. Water service is provided by Johnson County Special Utility District, and staff said a letter from that utility has been submitted. Staff recommended approval, saying the plan meets the minimum requirements set by the City of Joshua subdivision ordinance.
During discussion the applicant and staff noted the design keeps development out of the surveyed floodplain and that there is a 12- to 15-foot access path to Block 1R. Commissioners asked about building footprints and minimum building size; the transcript records an uncertain exchange about a minimum of roughly 1,000 square feet but the precise minimum was not specified in the record. A motion to approve the replat was made, seconded and the chair confirmed the motion carried.
No roll-call vote totals were provided in the transcript.
