AND WE HAVE THE, UH, SEAT THAT WAS FORMALLY OCCUPIED BY JENNIFER RAMOS.
THAT'S THE SEAT WE'RE FILLING TODAY.
AND THEN THE, UH, ALTERNATE FOR THE PLANNING COMMISSION.
AND, AND WHY WE HAVE AN ALTERNATE IS IN CASE THE PRIMARY IS UNABLE TO MAKE IT, YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATE THAT, THAT THAT CAN TAKE YOUR PLACE.
'CAUSE WE DO RECOGNIZE THAT THAT IS A LOT OF TIME THAT YOU WOULD BE SACRIFICING THIS YEAR FOR THE U D C AMENDMENT PROCESS.
BUT THAT'S WHY WE HAVE ALTERNATES.
DID WE MAKE INQUIRY WITH THE, UH, ABSENTEE MEMBERS TODAY IF THEY HAD ANY INTEREST? YES.
ONE WHO IS NOT HERE IS INTERESTED IN BEING AN ALTERNATE ALREADY.

ANY OPPOSED? THERE BEING NONE? THAT PART OF THE MEETING IS DONE.
[13. 20-1581 19-11800167: Request by Christopher Gill, Heidelberg Mobile Home Park, for approval to replat a tract of land to establish Heidelberg Mobile Home Park, generally located south of the intersection of Heidelberg Street and South Weidner Road. Staff recommends Approval. (Chris McCollin, Senior Planner, (210) 207-5014, Christopher.Mccollin@sanantonio.gov, Development Services Department).]
ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 13.CHRIS MCCOLLINS, SENIOR PLANNER DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER 13 IS PLATINUM NUMBER 19 18 0 0 1 67 HEIDELBERG MOBILE HOME PARK, A REQUEST BY CHRISTOPHER GILL HEIDELBERG MOBILE HOME PARK FOR THE APPROVAL TO REPL ATTRACTIVE LAND TO ESTABLISH THE HEIDELBERG MOBILE HOME PARK.
[00:10:01]
OF THE INTERSECTION OF HEIDELBERG STREET AND SOUTH WEEDER ROAD.THE AREA IS ZONED MH MANUFACTURED HOUSING DISTRICT.
THERE WERE 14 NOTICES MAILED OUT.
I CURRENTLY HAVE, UH, EIGHT IN OPPOSITION.
UM, SEVEN OF THOSE WERE ACTUALLY ON THE MAILING LIST.
ONE CAME FROM THE, UH, MAIL OUT TO THE BRISTOL FOREST HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, WHICH IS TO THE WEST.
IS THE APPLICANT OR AN APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE PRESENT TODAY? YES.
WOULD YOU PLEASE, UH, JUST PRESENT THE, UH, PLATE TO THE COMMISSION? GOOD AFTERNOON PLANNING COMMISSION.
UH, I DID, UH, THE ENGINEERING ON THIS PROJECT.
UM, THE OWNER IS NOT HERE RIGHT NOW.
HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE WALKING IN ANY MINUTE NOW.
UM, THE PROJECT WAS TO TAKE THIS EXISTING SECTION OF MOBILE HOME TRACKS.
UH, IT'S CURRENTLY ALREADY A DEVELOPED MOBILE HOME PARK.
UH, THE CLIENT CHOSE TO SUBDIVIDE THE PROPERTY INTO ADDITIONAL PARCELS AND TAKE THE 20 LOTS INTO 45 LOTS TO STILL MEET THE MINIMUM, UH, WITH REQUIREMENT FOR THE PROPERTY AND OUT.
BASICALLY WHAT THE PROJECT IS TO DO IS TO SUBDIVIDE THE PROPERTY TO ADD SOME ADDITIONAL MOBILE HOMES.
NEXT WE'LL HAVE CITIZENS TO BE HEARD.
UH, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
UH, FIRST PERSON SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 13, IS RUTH PEYTON.
I LIVE AT 94 14 HOBERG STREET, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 3 3.
UH, I LIVE IN THE MOBILE HOME PARK AND MY OBJECTION BASICALLY IS IF THEY PUT AS MANY MOBILE HOMES AS THEY WANT TO DO, IT'LL BE LIKE SARDINES.
I MEAN, IT'D BE SO CRAMPED THAT THERE WON'T BE ENOUGH PARKING PLACES FOR THE CARS.
AND THERE, IT JUST, IT'S NOT FEASIBLE TO PUT THAT MANY MOBILE HOMES IN THE PARK IN ADDITION TO WHAT IS ALREADY THERE.
AND THAT'S MY OUTSTATION TO IT.
NEXT PERSON SIGNED UP TO SPEAK IS CHARLES ZICK JR.
I JUST WANT TO REITERATE WHAT SHE JUST SAID.
UH, MAINLY IT'S, UH, THERE'S TWO CROWD.
IT'S 94 18, AND I ACTUALLY, MY DAD OWNS ANOTHER LOT, SO I HAVE TWO PLACES FOR HIM.
BUT ANYWAY, UH, BUT OUR CONCERNS ARE PARKING, THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC, IT'S A DEAD END ROAD, SO EVERYBODY HAS TO COME IN AND OUT THE SAME WAY.
AND IT'S PLENTY OF DRY, YOU KNOW, PLENTY OF TRAFFIC ON IT RIGHT NOW.
AND SO THAT, THAT'S THE TWO BIGGIES.
UH, I THINK THEY'RE, FROM WHAT WE'RE UNDERSTANDING, AND WE'RE GETTING THIS AT A VERY LATE DATE, SO WE HAVEN'T HAD A LOT OF, UH, HOMEWORK TO DO.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO A LOT OF HOMEWORK YET, BUT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT TAKING ALL THE FENCES DOWN, WHICH WE HAVE DOUBLE WIDE MOBILE HOMES AND WE HAVE, UH, PEOPLE THAT HAVE KIDS AND A DOG OR SO, AND WITHOUT THAT THEY'RE, THAT'S ALL, THEY CAN'T KEEP 'EM IN THEIR YARD.
AND THAT'S A VERY BIG CONCERN FOR THE PEOPLE ON THE LOT.
AS LONG AS, UH, I THINK THAT'S JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.
MOST OF THE IS THE TRAFFIC AND THE FACT THAT WE NEED MOBILE HOMES ARE WIDE.
THESE LOTS WON'T EVEN TAKE, LIKE WE, ONE PERSON THAT HERE HAS GOT, WE GOT THREE DOUBLE WIDES RIGHT NOW, SO THEY'RE LIKE 28, 26 TO 28 FEET, NOT COUNTING PORCHES OR ANYTHING.
SO THAT'S, YOU KNOW, THE BIG CONCERN ABOUT DIVIDING THIS BACK UP AND MAKING THE LOTS TOO SMALL TO, TO FIT TO MOBILE HOMES.
AND THEN I'VE GOTTA BRING UP, UH, I HAVE SIGNATURES FROM LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND WE WANNA PRESENT THESE TO YOU BECAUSE THEY ARE REAL UPSET AND THEY GOT NO NOTICES THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING.
AND IN SOME CASES, BUT SOME THEY DID.
AND THEN, BUT THEY, THEY'VE, UH, PUT THEIR NAME AND EVERYTHING ON THIS LIST HERE BECAUSE THEY'RE, UH, SOME OF THESE ARE THE, UH, HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION.
[00:15:02]
HOMEOWNERS? DID THEY FINALLY EMAIL YOU? ONE GUY.WELL WE HAVE SEVERAL FROM THE HOUSING, WHICH IS RIGHT BEHIND LIKE AN ALLEYWAY.
AND, UH, THEY, THEY KNOW HOW MUCH IT'LL BE DISRUPTIVE TO THEIR LIFE OVER THEIR FENCE TOO.
AND SO WE HAVE SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE TAKEN THE TIME TO, TO, UH, PUT, PUT THEIR NAMES ON THIS AND, AND IN OPPOSITION TO THE SITUATION THAT'S GOING ON.
SO I'M THINKING I, UM, I HOPE I COVERED EVERYTHING.
IF, IF YOU WANTED TO GIVE THAT TO STAFF, THEY, THEY'LL PUT IT IN THE RECORD.
NEXT PERSON I TO SPEAK IS NORA ILLA, RODEO ELA.
MY NAME IS NORA ELA AND I'M NOT FOR IT.
THAT'S GONNA BE WAY TOO MANY TRAILERS AS IT IS.
THERE'S 24 AND THERE'S GONNA BE 46.
THE CONGESTION IN THAT STREET, IT'S A SHORT STREET.
UM, IT'S A VERY NARROW STREET AS IT IS WHEN ONE'S COMING, ONE'S GOING.
'CAUSE IT'S A DEAD END STREET, AND IT'S A ONE WAY IN, ONE WAY OUT.
ONE CAR ALWAYS HAS TO GO TO THE EDGE OF THE ROAD TO MAKE.
SO THIS IS REALLY GONNA BRING A LOT, A LOT OF TRAFFIC.
AND I MEAN, BRINGING IN, KNOCKING DOWN ALL THE TREES, THE FENCES, I MEAN, NO ONE'S HAPPY WITH IT.
ALL THE HOMEOWNERS THAT DIDN'T GET THE PAPER, DIDN'T MAKE THE 200 FEET.
UM, THEY'RE UPSET BECAUSE AS IT IS, THERE'S, IT'S JUST SMALL.
IT'S JUST REALLY, REALLY BAD AS IT IS RIGHT NOW.
NEXT PERSON SIGNED UP TO SPEAK IS LAURA SIMMONS.
UH, NEXT PERSON SIGNED TO SPEAK IS SHEA ELIZONDO NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
I'M ONE OF THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVES ON THIS PROJECT.
WANTED TO JUST KIND OF GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND AND HISTORY ON, UM, OUR INVOLVEMENT WITH THE PROPERTY AND KIND OF MAKE SURE THE RECORD'S BEEN SET STRAIGHT ABOUT WHAT THE PLANS ARE AND PROPER.
UM, JUST HOW, WHAT, WHAT THE PLANS WITH THE PROPERTY AND TAKING IT FORWARD.
UM, WE PURCHASED THE PROPERTY ABOUT 12 MONTHS AGO FROM AN ABSENTEE OWNER WHO HADN'T SPENT MUCH TIME ON THE PROPERTY RECENTLY.
THERE WERE CODE VIOLATIONS IN THE PLACE.
THERE WAS TRASH, THERE WAS, UM, DOGS ROAMING FREE.
THERE WERE CARS THAT DIDN'T WORK.
AND, YOU KNOW, KIND OF TYPICAL FOR A, SADLY FOR AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTION, THAT'S, THAT'S NOT BEING WELL MAINTAINED.
UM, AND OUR GOAL FROM THE BEGINNING WAS TO COME IN AND TO TAKE THE PROPERTY TO CLEAN IT UP, TO OBVIOUSLY CURE ALL THE VIOLATIONS.
WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE STATE TO DO THAT AND TO MAINTAIN AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTION WITH, YOU KNOW, LOT RENTS OF 300 TO 400 BUCKS A MONTH, AND WHERE YOU CAN HAVE AN ENTIRE HOME INSTEAD OF TURNING THIS INTO A DEVELOPMENT OR SOMETHING SIMILAR TO WHAT'S DIRECTLY BEHIND US.
UM, IN REGARDS TO THE, THE, BASICALLY THE SIZE AND WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH THE, WITH THE CHANGE OF THE LOTS.
SO WHEN WE PURCHASED, THE AVERAGE LOT SIZE WAS ABOUT A 73 BY 162 FOOT WIDE LOT, WHICH IS ABOUT A QUARTER OF AN ACRE.
UM, WHICH A VERY LARGE LOT FOR A SINGLE WIDE, OR EVEN A DOUBLE WIDE MOBILE HOME IN COMPARISON TO LOTS DIRECTLY BEHIND THIS DEVELOPMENT ARE ALL UNDER 3000 SQUARE FOOT LOTS.
AND THEY HAVE SINGLE FAMILY, THREE BEDROOM, TWO BATH, THREE BEDROOM, THREE BATH HOMES ON 'EM.
SO THE, THE SIZE THAT THESE WILL BE CHANGED TO WILL STILL BE, YOU KNOW, LARGER THAN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE DEVELOPMENT THAT'S DIRECTLY BEHIND US.
THEY'LL ALL BE CLOSE TO 4,000 SQUARE FOOT LOTS.
UM, AND SO THERE'S STILL GONNA BE A LOT OF ROOM.
THEY'RE, THEY'RE VERY LONG LOTS.
SO THERE'LL BE AMPLE FRONT YARD, THERE'LL BE AMPLE BACKYARD AREAS.
UM, THERE'LL BE, YOU KNOW, TWO TO FOUR CAR PARKING OPTIONS PER HOME.
SO, AND THOSE WILL ALL BE OFF STREETS.
THERE'S NOT GONNA BE PARKING ON THE STREET.
AND THE GOAL IS TO REALLY JUST MAINTAIN THIS PROPERTY AND MAKE SURE IT'S WELL TAKEN CARE OF.
WE BROUGHT IN A MANAGER WHO'S DONE A, A GOOD JOB OF, OF CLEANING UP THE PROPERTY.
A LOT OF TRASH HAS BEEN CLEANED OUT.
UM, THERE WERE ISSUES AT THE TOP OF HEIDELBERG STREET.
WE'VE WORKED WITH THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO'S POLICE DEPARTMENT TO CLEAR
[00:20:01]
OUT SOME BRUSH AREAS TO HOPEFULLY HAVE LESS VAGRANT.UM, SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE SPECIFICALLY.
SO, YEAH, I MEAN, DOGS WILL, WILL, WILL NEVER BE ALLOWED TO 30 SECONDS.
DOGS WILL NEVER BE ALLOWED TO ROAM FREE WHILE THE PROPERTY THERE, THERE ARE, THERE ARE RULES WE'RE BRINGING IN A BUNCH OF NEW HOMES THAT WE'LL BE ABLE TO OFFER AS A RENT TO HOME OPTION FOR FOLKS WHO AREN'T ABLE TO AFFORD THE MORTGAGE ON A HOME.
AND, AND WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT, AGAIN, JUST KEEPING A REAL CENTRALIZED, AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTION WHERE YOU CAN GO AND RENT A WHOLE HOME FOR, AGAIN, THREE 50 TO 400 BUCKS A MONTH IS PRETTY RARE IN THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO AT THIS POINT.
SIGN UP TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER 13.
THE, THE NUMBER WRITTEN HERE CORRESPONDED WITH ANOTHER ONE, BUT YOU'RE FOR ITEM NUMBER 13.
NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
HERE'S MY NAME IS MICHAEL HOPPER.
I LIVE IN THE MOBILE HOME PARK.
UH, UNLIKE MY NEIGHBORS WHO ALL LIVE NEXT TO THE HO MOBILE HOME PARK.
UM, I'M AGAINST THIS MOTION BECAUSE, UH, I HAVE A DOUBLE WIDE MOBILE HOME AND IT WILL NOT FIT IN ANY OF THE SPACES THAT ARE, UH, UH, PROPOSED WITH THE NEW, UH, ZONING.
UM, I'VE BEEN LIVING THERE FOR OVER 10 YEARS, UH, AT $250 A MONTH.
AND, UH, IT'S, IT'S BEEN A, A, A PLEASANT PLACE.
I, I, THE, THE OWNER, UH, HAD ALL THE, UH, UH, THE, ALL OF THE LANDSCAPING DONE, KEPT TRACK, CUT SEVERAL TREES FOR ME IF I NEEDED THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE IN DANGER OF FALLING ON MY, ON MY HOUSE.
AND SO, UH, THE NEW OWNERS, UH, EXCUSE ME, I HAVE MOVED, UH, UH, TOOK CONTROL ABOUT 18 MONTHS AGO.
AND OF COURSE THE RENT HAS GONE UP.
UH, AND LIKE WE SAID BEFORE, THE, THIS IS A, A, A LONG, HALF MILE LONG DEAD END STREET.
ALL OF THE LOTS ARE ABOUT THE SAME SIZE, THE HOUSES FOR THE FIRST HALF AND THEN TRAILERS IN THE SECOND HALF AND, UH, THE, THE TRAFFIC, I MEAN, SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS, UH, MAYBE YOU COULD PUT A NEW ELECTRICAL AND WATER AND HEATING, BUT THERE'S NO ACCESS.
THERE'S ANOTHER CITY AT THE SOUTH END, ANOTHER HOUSING DISTRICT ON THE WEST END.
AND THEN THE EAST END IS PARTLY, UH, A WATER, UH, UH, UH, TOWER KIND OF AFFAIR.
UH, AND, UH, I DON'T THINK, UH, AT ABOUT, THERE'S ABOUT 40 LOTS ON THIS STREET AND ANOTHER 24 WOULD BE A CONSIDERABLE, UH, I THINK IT'S MUCH TOO, UH, AGGRESSIVE OF, UH, UH, UH, EXPANSION AND, UH, AND AGAINST THIS PROPOSAL.
UM, NEXT WE'LL HAVE THE APPLICANT, IF YOU WISH TO MAKE A REBUTTAL.
YEAH, I GUESS NOTHING ELSE SUPER SPECIFIC TO ADD.
UM, OTHER THAN THE LAW, IT'S STARTED, YOU KNOW, MUCH LARGER, UM, THAN THEY, AND THEY REALLY NEEDED TO BE OR WERE EVEN USED BY THE RESIDENTS OF THE PROPERTY.
YOU KNOW, MAINTAINING LARGER LOTS IS, IS CERTAINLY AN OPTION, BUT REALLY GOES AGAINST OUR DESIRE TO KEEP SOMETHING AS AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
JUST OUR, OUR EXIT, OUR ENTRANCE PRICE INTO THIS PROJECT WOULD BY MAINTAIN THE LARGER LOTS, MAKE THE RENT HAVE TO GO UP CONSIDERABLY MORE.
SO THIS IS A, HOPEFULLY A, A WORKABLE SOLUTION TO AGAIN, INCREASE THE DENSITY OF THE SIZE OF THE PARK.
AGAIN, WE'RE NOT BRINGING IN A BUNCH OF NEW DOUBLE WIDE TRAILERS, SO THERE WILL BE SINGLE WIDE TRAILER OPTIONS.
UM, AND, AND I THINK WITH THE, WITH US ACTIVELY BRINGING IN SOME ADDITIONAL UNITS, I THINK, AND THEN WORKING ON SOME RENT OWN SITUATIONS WITH THE RESIDENTS AND OTHER PEOPLE THAT WANNA LIVE THERE, HOPEFULLY WE'LL BE ABLE TO AGAIN, FIND A BALANCE BETWEEN BRINGING IN, INCREASING THE DENSITY, BUT KEEPING THE, THE LOT RENT THE COST TO LIVE HERE AS ECONOMICALLY AS POSSIBLE.
UH, WE'LL NOW CLOSE THE PUBLIC PORTION OF THE MEETING AND MOVE ON TO COMMISSIONER'S QUESTIONS.
WE'LL START AT THE RIGHT WITH COMMISSIONER MICHAEL GARCIA.
I HAD A QUESTION FOR THE DEVELOPER.
HOW WELL YOU, UH, GET THE UNITS IN THERE? YOU GONNA CONSTRUCT THEM ON SITE OR DO YOU
[00:25:01]
BACK 'EM UP IN THERE SINCE THEY'RE VERY NARROW? LOTS.YEAH, THERE, THERE'S ROOM ON THE FRONT.
SO THE, THE, THE NEW UNITS WON'T BE RIGHT AT THE VERY FRONT OF THE PROPERTY AND ALL THE UNITS ARE CURRENTLY SET BACK A LITTLE BIT INTO THE PROPERTY.
SO THERE'LL BE AMPLE ROOM TO, TO MANEUVER THE NEW UNITS INTO, INTO PLACE.
I HAVE A QUESTION ALSO FOR THE, UM, PROPERTY OWNER.
SO IF THERE ARE EXISTING TRAILERS THAT ARE DOUBLE WIDE, DO, UM, I I TYPICALLY, HOW WIDE IS IT? DOUBLE WIDE? I MEAN, IT LOOKS LIKE SOME OF THESE LOTS ARE AS NARROW AS 26 FEET.
SOME GO UP TO, I THINK I SAW 33, 35 FEET.
UM, IF, IF THERE IS AN EXISTING TRAILER THAT IS BIGGER THAN THE LOT SIZE OR RIGHT UP AGAINST THE PROPERTY LINES, HOW DO YOU ACCOMMODATE THAT? I DON'T KNOW IF THERE ARE THERE CITY REQUIRED SETBACKS IN BETWEEN PROPERTY LINES WHEN IT COMES TO MOBILE HOMES.
THERE WOULD BE FIVE FOOT SIDE SETBACKS FROM EACH OF THOSE SIDE PROPERTY LINES ON THESE LOTS.
SO ARE YOU ACCOMMODATING FOR THAT WHERE THERE ARE, UM, EXISTING DOUBLE LINES, EXISTING DOUBLE WIDES? YEAH, SO I MEAN OUR GOAL, IF YOU'LL NOTICE THERE'S A KIND OF A WIDE RANGE OF LOT SIZES AND THAT'S BECAUSE THE GOAL WAS TO NOT DISTURB THE EXISTING HOMES AND THE EXISTING RESIDENTS IN THE PARK AND SIMPLY TO FILL IN BETWEEN THEM.
AND MAYBE THAT'S PART OF THE CONCERN ABOUT TAKING DOWN AND MOVING AROUND THE FENCE LINES BECAUSE THEY WON'T BE EXACTLY MAINTAINED.
BUT THE IDEA WAS TO COME IN AND, AND TRULY INFILL THE PROJECT AND NOT CLEAR THE PROPERTY AND THEN START ALL OVER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THAT WOULD FORCE EXISTING PEOPLE OUT OF THERE.
SO ANYONE THAT WANTS TO STAY, WE'VE DONE WHAT WE CAN TO ACCOMMODATE THE LOT SIZES AND TO ACCOMMODATE THE UNITS THAT ARE, THAT ARE ALREADY IN PLACE.
NO FURTHER QUESTIONS RIGHT NOW.
OH, JUST A QUICK QUESTION FOR STAFF.
DOES THIS PLATT MEET, UH, ALL REQUIREMENTS AS SPECIFIED IN THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE? YES, IT DOES.
JUST WANNA REMIND EVERYBODY THAT WE BY STATE LAW HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO APPROVE THIS PLATT BECAUSE IT MEETS CODE.
UM, JUST UM, BECAUSE I'M STILL GETTING USED TO IT.
UM, CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE REQUIREMENTS, UM, FOR, TO MEET CODE? SURE.
SO WITHIN THE MH MANUFACTURED HOUSING DISTRICT, EACH LOT HAS TO MEET THE SAME LOT DIMENSIONS AS THE R M FOUR RESIDENTIAL MIXED ZONING DISTRICT.
UH, THE REQUIREMENT IS A MINIMUM LOT SIZE OF 4,000 SQUARE FEET.
THESE LOTS ARE BETWEEN 4,150 AND 4,500 SQUARE FEET.
UH, AND THEN AS FAR AS BOTH STREET FRONTAGE AND WIDTH ARE CONCERNED, THE RMM FOUR DISTRICT REQUIRES AT LEAST 15 FEET.
SO THAT WOULD BE TO ACCOMMODATE A FLAG LOT.
UH, SO THE WIDTHS PROPOSED BY THIS PLATT ARE ALL COMPLIANT WITH THE CODE AS WELL.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? IF NOT, UM, WE HEARD, UH, SOME CONCERNS ABOUT TOO MANY MOBILE HOMES.
IS THERE ANYTHING REGARDING DENSITY OR SPACING? WELL, THE SPACING WOULD BE THE SETBACKS.
SPACING WOULD BE SETBACKS AND THE DENSITY WOULD BE EFFECTIVELY REGULATED BY THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE, WHICH AGAIN, THIS DOES COMPLY WITH THAT REQUIREMENT.
THE PUBLIC PORTIONS CLOSED AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
UM, IS THE TRAFFIC STUDY REQUIRED FOR THIS KIND OF A DEVELOPMENT? WE ARE CONCERNS ABOUT TRAFFIC.
THIS, THIS PLATT WOULD'VE BEEN REVIEWED BY BOTH OUR STREETS AND OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEERING DIVISIONS.
AND TO BE ELIGIBLE TO BE CONSIDERED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION, THEY WOULD'VE BEEN APPROVED BY EACH OF THOSE FOLKS BEFORE IT GOT HERE.
ANY OTHER COMMISSIONERS HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? UH, THERE BEING NONE AS YOU HEARD BEFORE, UH, STATE STATUTE REQUIRES APPROVAL OF THIS PLATT.
SO DO WE HAVE A MOTION MOVE FOR APPROVAL? SECOND TO, WE HAVE A MOTION FOR COMMISSIONER PECK AND A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER PROPHET, UH, STAFFING.
COMMISSIONER CHRISTOPHER GARCIA? YES.
[00:30:01]
YES.[15. 20-1475 19-11800287: Request by Brian Barron, Lennar Homes of Texas Land & Construction, LTD., for approval to replat and subdivide a tract of land to establish Silos Subdivision, Units 2C & 3C, generally located southwest of the intersection of US Highway 90 and Masterson Road.
