Tree Conservation Analysis
A tree conservation analysis was submitted with the proposed plat revision application. The applicant has estimated tree cover once the remodel/addition is completed on the current residence
(56%) and the future residence (82%) on the proposed second lot. Tree protection plans will be required upon any application for building permits and must be consistent with the submitted
tree analysis shown.

Variance Requests
Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, as amended, Section 8.01.d states all side lot lines shall be perpendicular to the right of way lines or radial in the case of a cul-de-sac or curvilinear
design. The proposed lots do not meet the requirement for perpendicular or radial lot lines.
Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, as amended, Section 5.06.b.2.a states that sidewalks shall be required for all residential subdivisions platted or replatted. A minimum 4-foot sidewalk
for the proposed lots along Sam Bass Ridge Road is required with any house construction.
The applicant has requested two variances. One to allow the lot line as shown and the other requesting to pay into escrow in lieu of required sidewalk construction.

September 8, 2016; Approved (4-1) subject to the Staff Report dated September 2, 2016 and Plat Review Summary No. 2, dated September 2, 2016; specifically granting the two variances
requested within the application. However, with respect to the first variance requested, related to perpendicular lot lines we would note and include on that the applicant’s request
to exclude the panhandle portion of the line at the northern end of lot 10-R-1, and continue to extend the lines straight north. And, with respect to the second variance requested, grant
that variance, however, at the request of the applicant, the commission would ask that it be subject to the appropriate amount of funds escrowed with the City related to the cost of
construction of the subject sidewalk.

If the property to be replatted was limited by an interim or permanent zoning classification to residential use for not more than two units per lot during the preceding five years or
was limited by deed restrictions to residential use for no more than two units per lot then the following shall apply:
Texas Local Government Code
Section 212.015, Additional Requirements
for Certain Replats, Subsection (c)
If the proposed replat requires a variance and is protested in accordance with this subsection, the proposed replat must receive, in order to be approved,
the affirmative vote of at least three-fourths of the members present of the municipal planning commission or governing body, or both. For a legal protest, written instruments signed
by the owners of at least 20 percent of the area of the lots or land immediately adjoining the area covered by the proposed replat and extending 200 feet from that area, but within the
original subdivision, must be filed within the municipal planning commission or governing body, or both, prior to the close of the public hearing.
Legal notification letters were sent to all property owners within the platted subdivision as well as within 200 feet of the case parcel. The proposed plat revision resulted in 40 letters
sent. Five of the property owners within the 200 foot buffer (shown in orange) have filed opposition which has resulted in 66.55% opposed. Since the proposed plat revision does include
a variance request, and the property meets the Texas Code criteria as shown, the additional requirement for approval is applied.
