Pflugerville planner outlines multiple private projects in Falcon Point, SH 45 and eastern corridors
Summary
City planner Preston Donald briefed the TIRZ board on private development activity across multiple subdistricts, reporting nearing completion of Colorado Sands roadway work, imminent hospital turnover, multifamily and senior housing subdivision work, and new retail/restaurant proposals including Keystone 12 and a Portillo's site.
Preston Donald, planner for the City of Pflugerville, presented the TIRZ board with the quarterly private-development update covering Falcon Point, SH 45, Skybox Phase 2 and the Downtown Pecan Corridor.
Donald said Colorado Sands roadway work is mostly finished and expected to be complete by the end of the summer. He reported that the Baylor Scott & White hospital near East Pflugerville Parkway is nearing finalization and staff anticipate closing out the hospital portion within a matter of weeks; medical office build-out adjacent to the hospital is expected to continue through the end of the year.
Donald described several active applications and projects: Northpointe developments (a multifamily project and a senior housing project) are proceeding through subdivision; Keystone 12 is proposed as a shell retail building with tenant spaces similar to adjacent commercial development; and new restaurant spaces—including a Portillo’s location and local coffee shops—have recently filed or shown interest. Skybox Phase 2 is reported almost complete and will resemble phase 1 once finished.
On the SH 45 subdistrict, staff noted an industrial project for Longhorn and multiple commercial-property subdivision efforts north of SH 45 to extend roadways and utilities ahead of vertical construction. Donald said a new planned-unit development (PUD) application contemplates a mix of multifamily, flex space and commercial uses and is starting staff review; approvals could proceed through planning-and-zoning and city council over the next several months.
Donald also reported that the Pecan District (West Pecan and Heather Wild areas) currently has no active applications, though staff continue to hold conversations with property owners. He pointed board members to an in-progress Downtown East project and said certain parcels remain flexible for future commercial or residential development.
The board did not take formal action on the development update; staff indicated they will return with additional progress items at a future meeting.
