Summary

The commission approved preliminary and final plat for Reyes Estates (336 Brown Road) and granted a waiver to defer storm drainage and soil analysis until building‑permit submittal, provided those reports are submitted at that time.

Planning staff presented Reyes Estates, a preliminary and final plat for a roughly 1.255‑acre tract at 336 Brown Road (Track 4A, Block 9, Socorro Grant). Staff said the owner is not currently planning to build and requested a waiver to postpone submitting a storm drainage plan and soil analysis until the time of building‑permit application. Staff recommended approval of the plat and the waiver conditioned on submittal of those reports at permit stage.

Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the waiver and staff confirmed the waiver is appropriate for an agricultural tract where no immediate construction is planned; they emphasized that if an owner later seeks building permits, the required engineering reports must be submitted at that time. A motion to approve the preliminary and final plat and the waiver, with the staff’s condition, was moved, seconded and carried.
