Letter from the Applicant
November 9, 2015
Dennis Killough
Chief Planner
City of Southlake
Southlake, Texas
Re: Saddleback Ridge Estates Plat Extension Request
Dear Dennis,
This letter is to request extensions for the Final Plat of Saddleback Ridge Estates, set to expire Jan 2016
and Preliminary Plat set to expire June 2016.
The reason for the request is due to the market rebound and liquidity in the estate luxury housing market.
While the market is steadily improving for this segment, return to normalized liquidity for speculative
lending to custom homes has been slow.
However, the market trend is positive ...We have been working with local custom home builders and
the city engineering staff with the intent and goal to start this project mid-2016, barring any unforeseen
economic macro events similar to 2008-2009.
We are very excited about bringing forward this 32 one acre lot community and are fully committed to
delivering a high quality project.
Enclosed is a check for $100 for the extension application fee.
Please do not hesitate to call should you have any questions.
Kind Regards,
Tom LaHoda
