Commission approves preliminary plat for Maverick Benbrook Subdivision
Summary
The Benbrook Planning and Zoning Commission approved a preliminary plat for the 16-acre Maverick Benbrook Subdivision (10 estate lots) on May 14, 2026, subject to staff conditions including correcting the front building setback to 25 feet and completing final engineering and FEMA CLOMR/LOMR review.
The Benbrook Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve the preliminary plat for the Maverick Benbrook Subdivision during its May 14, 2026 meeting, following a staff recommendation that conditions be met on the final plat.
Mr. Howard, presenting the staff report, said, "this request is for a preliminary plat for the Maverick, Benbrook Subdivision" and recommended approval subject to the staff-identified conditions, including ensuring the final plat displays a 25-foot front building setback. The staff report described the site as approximately 16 acres northwest of the Hawkins Home Boulevard and Benbrook Boulevard intersection and noted the rezoning from multifamily to a planned-development single-family layout to allow 10 estate lots.
Applicant representative Burgess said the developer is "the owner and developer of Maverick" and summarized project features: private internal streets and a storm drain system maintained by an HOA, oversized wet detention ponds intended to reduce runoff, and recent acceptance of a traffic signal at Bear Creek Parkway and Highway 377. Burgess said preliminary engineering packages, including a traffic impact analysis, have been submitted and accepted.
Commissioners asked staff and the applicant for technical clarifications about drainage and federal mapping processes. Staff explained the CLOMR/LOMR (conditional letter of map revision and letter of map revision) pathway with FEMA and said final engineering, signed and sealed by licensed engineers and reviewed by city engineers (and FEMA/TXDOT where applicable), must be completed before final plat approval.
Commissioner Wallace moved to approve the preliminary plat "subject to the conditions recommended by staff." Commissioner Craver seconded and the motion passed. The approval is ministerial if the plat meets the applicable ordinance requirements; the developer must submit final civil and drainage plans and update the final plat to show the 25-foot front building setback before proceeding to final plat approval.
