Planning commission approves Duncan Track master plan revision reducing rec center and shifting lots
Summary
The League City Planning Commission approved the sixth revision to the Duncan Track master plan (MP-2400004), which shifts acreage between single-family, multifamily, landscaped areas and the recreational center while remaining within the property's PUD limits.
The League City Planning Commission voted to approve Duncan Track master plan revision number 6 (MP-2400004), a minor zoning and land-use adjustment that reduces the size of a recreational center to add single-family lots and expanded landscaping.
Planning staff told commissioners the change is limited to the Vida Mar section 3 portion of the plan and does not alter the project's compliance with the site's planned unit development (PUD). "Yes. Everything is in compliance with the PUD," the planner said during the presentation.
Under the revision, single-family residential acreage increases by 2.2 acres, producing 13 additional lots; the recreational-center acreage decreases by 2.2 acres. Multifamily acreage decreases by 2.3 acres while landscaped area increases by 2.3 acres to create a landscape buffer in the urban-village portion of the site. Townhome units decrease by 14. Planning staff said all changes remain within the ranges allowed under the property's PUD.
Commission leadership moved to approve the revision as recommended by staff; another commissioner seconded the motion. The motion carried with the four commissioners present voting in favor; two members were absent. The commission had established a quorum at the start of the meeting.
After the vote, staff noted a related item that had advanced to the City Council: a Lawrence Road special-use permit request was approved on first reading and is scheduled for second reading on March 11. A member of the public asked about the difference between first and second readings; staff explained that ordinances generally require two readings, the first includes a public hearing and the second is typically an administrative approval and may appear on the council's consent agenda if there are no objections.
The revision affects land around Bridal Lakes Subdivision and west of Sedona Subdivision and is recorded as MP-2400004 in city planning files. No changes to city policy or new funding were announced at the meeting.
