Planning Commission approves Mosley and Woodlands final plats to create new lots in urban growth area

The Planning Commission voted to approve two final subdivision plats, clearing the way for new lots in the city’s urban growth boundary.

Mandy Bobo, speaking for applicant Nicholas Northcutt, described the Mosley final plat at 451 Copperas Creek Road as a conversion of an earlier four-lot proposal into three lots after soil studies showed adequate soils areas only for three lots. Staff told commissioners the plat had been delayed while soils reports were completed and that reconfiguration ensured each lot could accommodate a future home. After a motion and second, the commission approved the Mosley final plat.

Staff presented the Woodland Part 2 Phase 2 final plat as the remaining 18 lots of the Woodlands subdivision, noting Phase 1 of Part 2 had been approved previously and that civil and stormwater plans had been reviewed and accepted by public works. A commissioner asked whether a site plan showing drainage had been provided; staff said civil drawings had been reviewed and approved by public works and offered to provide signed civil drawings and any topo materials for the commission’s files. Following brief discussion, the commission moved, seconded and approved the Woodland Part 2 Phase 2 final plat.

Both approvals carry the standard requirement that applicants satisfy any outstanding permitting conditions — including stormwater and construction permits — before land disturbance or building permits are issued. The commission recorded the motions and closed both items with unanimous approval.

The Planning Commission will next meet on July 20 (date amended on the agenda during this meeting).
