Mark Linenschmidt, Senior Planner restated the staff
report for this item.
Mr. Linenschmidt provided a brief description of each
tract request and descriptions of the proposed zoning districts.
Mr. Linenschmidt informed the Commission that tracts 1
and 2 essentially “shift” a park area from a location along the border of the
development to a more centralized location. Acreage not accounted for in the
“shift” will be used for additional park areas throughout the master plan.
Overall, parks uses increase 13.8 acres to 26.5 acres from 12.7 acres. The
applicant indicates that by placing the parks in a centralized area, 95% of the
lots within the subdivision would be within a ¼-mile walking distance. The “OS”
zoning district is intended to provide for appropriate use and development
within lands which include drainage ways, utility easements, undeveloped open
space and parklands.
Mr.
Linenschmidt further informed the Commission that tracts 3, 4 and 5 are to
redistribute the park areas throughout the subdivision in order for greater
flexibility. If approved, the zoning of the property will not immediately
coincide with the proposed master plan. Over time, the parks and open space
tracts will be defined and located as each section is designed, constructed and
platted. The “RSF-7” zoning district is intended for single-family residential
development with a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet. This zoning district
is the most utilized residential zoning district within League City.

Froeschner opened the public hearing at 6:32pm.
