Planning commission approves Enclave at Maxwell Creek Phase 2 plat, contingent on review comments
Summary
The Planning and Zoning Commission approved a construction plat for the Enclave at Maxwell Creek Phase 2 (11.978 acres) contingent on satisfying all review summary comments; commissioners flagged floodplain mitigation, detention ponds and trail easement coordination with HEB.
The Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve a construction plat for the Enclave at Maxwell Creek Phase 2 (case no. 2026-005), a 11.978-acre subdivision within the Henry Maxwell survey abstract no. 579, contingent on completing the items listed in review summary number 2.
Morgan, the staff presenter, summarized the scope and timeline for the proposed phase: "The construction plat, as you know, allows them to continue with civil review. And in the event that civil review is approved, they'll be able to start moving on actual construction of the utilities," Morgan said. Commissioners stressed that the approval should explicitly incorporate the review comments so red-line items become part of the legal record.
The application covers the remainder of the enclave previously approved in Phase 1 and adds approximately the second half of the overall lots (projected to create a total of about 104 lots across phases). Staff and the applicant said civil plans remain under review, including floodplain and detention-pond designs; the commission made approval contingent on addressing those review items. A motion to approve the construction plat, contingent on review summary number 2, was moved and seconded and passed (motion will proceed to council).
The record includes a requirement for the developer to solidify an easement for a public trail connection that will tie into the adjacent HEB property; staff said the exact trail alignment awaits HEB's intersection work so the connections match across properties. The commission also discussed fire-hydrant spacing and missing sanitary sewer lines called out in red-line comments and asked staff to ensure those items are reflected in the approval language.
The commission's action is procedural approval of the construction plat; final legal recording and site work depend on subsequent civil-plan approvals and any required LOMR (Letter of Map Revision) steps for floodplain changes.
