City annexes 22.78 acres and approves Poplar Reserve subdivision with street‑connectivity MOSs and added setback/turn‑lane conditions
Summary
The board approved annexation of 22.78 acres north of Clovercroft Road, rezoned the property to a Planned PD for Poplar Reserve (41 single‑family lots), allowed three modification requests on street stub/connection alignment/cul‑de‑sac, and adopted two conditions: a 50‑ft setback on Clovercroft and developer road improvements (turn lane) before first certificate of occupancy.
The board considered a multi‑item package: a plan of services for the annexation of 22.78 acres near Clovercroft Road (resolution 2026‑48), rezoning the same land to Planned PD (ordinance 2026‑17), and the Poplar Reserve development plan (resolution 2026‑52) for 41 single‑family lots. The applicant's representative described right‑of‑way dedication for a future five‑lane Clovercroft and site‑specific MOS exhibits. Staff noted some MOS requests were unusual; planning commission recommended approval overall though staff flagged connectivity concerns for two MOSs.
After debate the board approved annexation and zoning and ultimately approved the development plan along with three MOS approvals. Board members added two conditions of approval after negotiation with the developer: increase the street setback on Clovercroft from about 28.5 feet to 50 feet for the first row of homes, and require the developer to install turn‑lane/road improvements (in coordination with adjacent Navarro work) before issuing the first certificate of occupancy. The actions passed largely by 7–1 votes where recorded.
