Commissioners grant variance for 56-acre parcel to allow one house despite frontage shortfall
Summary
After staff explained a 6-foot shortfall to the 150-foot paved frontage requirement for parcel ID 1911053, the court approved a variance with three conditions (exclusive access from East Meadow, precinct-commissioner approval for other access, and future platting requirements).
Alberto Maras, Director of Development, told the court the applicant seeks a variance from the county's 150-foot minimum paved road-frontage requirement for parcel ID 1911053, a roughly 56.41-acre tract east of East Meadow Lane and Lazy Spring Drive in the ETJ near Red Oak. A recent survey shows the site falls about 6 feet short of Meadowlane frontage; staff recommended approval with three conditions: exclusive access from East Meadow, any other access must be approved by the precinct commissioner, and any further subdivision must meet then-current platting requirements.
Commissioners discussed timing relative to planned road work and the site's dead-end access configuration. Commissioner Butler moved to approve the variance with the stated conditions; Commissioner Ponder seconded and the court approved the variance unanimously.
