Comal County approves restrictive covenant to keep county parcel as open space
Summary
The court approved a restrictive covenant limiting use of a 2.609‑acre county parcel on Ammon West to passive open space (no 4‑walled structures, no RV parks) because the tract lies in the regulatory floodplain.
Comal County Commissioners approved a restrictive covenant for a 2.609‑acre county‑owned parcel on Ammon West to restrict use to passive open space due to its location within the regulatory floodplain. County Engineer Robert Boyd explained the county had previously abandoned the old alignment of Ammon Road and retained this parcel; staff proposed covenant language prohibiting 4‑walled structures and RV parks and directing the property to be placed for auction by the purchasing office under those restrictions.
Commissioners voted to approve the restrictive covenant and authorized the county judge to sign the document. Staff said the covenant preserves floodplain function and prevents incompatible development on the tract before the property is marketed.
