CITY COUNCIL ACTION
AGENDA ITEM: 9C
CASE NO: ZA19-0027
MEETING DATE: February 4, 2020
This item has been Disapproved
MOTION: A motion to approve this item passed 5 votes in favor and 2 votes against. However,
a supermajority vote (three-fourths of the members present or 6 affirmative votes by
City Council) was required for approval of the Plat Revision due to opposition within
the platted subdivision being greater than 20%. Since there were only 5 affirmative
City Council votes the motion did not carry per Texas Local Government Code
Section 212.015.
REASONS FOR
DISAPPROVAL: Per discussion of the City Council, the dissenting votes appear to be due to non-
compliance with the Subdivision Ordinance No. 483, as amended, Sections
8.01(A) and 5.04 requiring that every lot shall front on a public street.
Also, the property 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, submitted response forms in
opposition per the subsection of the Texas Local Government Code, Section 212
below:
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.
The vote (5 for and 2 against) did not meet the affirmative vote requirements of the
Texas local Government Code Section 212.015.
