Commission waives two comments and accepts preliminary plat for San Jose Del Rio subdivision (130 lots)
Summary
Planning staff and the applicant presented a 130‑lot mixed residential and commercial preliminary plat in the ETJ; the commission accepted preliminary consideration and voted to waive planning and traffic comments 1 and 2 to allow the plat process to move forward.
The commission reviewed the preliminary plat for the San Jose Del Rio subdivision, a 130‑lot residential and commercial project located in the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Engineering representatives summarized staff comments and noted outstanding planning and traffic items; the applicant asked the commission to waive two specific comments to permit preliminary consideration to proceed.
Wayne Ness, the engineer representing the applicant, asked the commission to strike planning comment number 1 and a traffic comment that required a cul‑de‑sac or other reconfiguration at a short street terminus. Staff explained the traffic and planning rationales for the comments but acknowledged access issues can be addressed in the one‑stop shop review. Commissioners voted to accept the preliminary consideration and to waive planning comments 1 and 2 as requested; the motion carried by voice vote.
The waiver allows the applicant to continue through the preliminary plat review with the noted caveat that access and fire department requirements will be addressed during one‑stop shop submittal and final plat stages.
