Lindale board approves Birch Hollow preliminary plat with conditions on street names and easements
Summary
The Lindale Planning and Zoning Board approved the preliminary plat for the Birch Hollow subdivision at 14955 CR 411 (Tyler, Smith County) on Feb. 9, contingent on adding roadway names and resolving potential easements; the motion passed 5-0.
The Lindale Planning and Zoning Board voted 5-0 on Feb. 9 to approve the preliminary plat for the Birch Hollow subdivision at 14955 CR 411 in Tyler, Smith County, contingent on the addition of missing roadway names and any necessary easements. Jerry Terry moved for approval; Paul Ray seconded, and the motion carried unanimously.
Steven Lloyd, Lindale director of planning and development, introduced the item and noted the property had been annexed by the City Council. Lloyd told the board the preliminary plat as submitted by Nicholas Allegretto was missing some street names and that one or two lots “could potentially become easements.” He also said the owner had spoken with the property owner to the north about that neighbor possibly annexing into the city for future development.
Board discussion centered on addressing the missing street-name information and clarifying whether specific lots would be dedicated as easements before final plat approval. The board’s approval was explicitly contingent on those roadway names and easement notations being added to the plat where necessary.
There were no public comments on the item during the meeting. The board did not record amendments to the motion; the vote was recorded as 5-0 in favor of the contingent approval.
