ZC24-016 — Mixed-use development with commercial, residential, institutional, office, hospitality, and civic uses organized around a connected canal system across four sub-districts
A 153-acre PD-to-PD rezoning ("The Reserve") that would replace the existing Planned Development standards with a new four-sub-district, form-based mixed-use framework (Canals, Broad Street, Employment, and Neighborhood) supporting commercial, residential, office, hospitality, institutional, and civic uses around a navigable canal system. Notably, the draft sets minimum but no maximum building heights, imposes no overall cap on residential units or townhome density, and allows up to three apartment projects plus uncapped age-restricted senior living (max 400 units/project), offering significant density flexibility for developers. However, the case is being recommended for continuance to August 6, 2026 while key terms (administrative modification authority, residential entitlements, parking, commercial-ready frontage, and open-space phasing/maintenance) are still being negotiated, so entitlements are not yet finalized.
SD26-021 — Low-density single-family residential subdivision (Munoz Tract) with 29 residential lots and open space/drainage lots
This is a preliminary plat for a 15.47-acre single-family residential subdivision (Munoz Tract) of 29 lots on the west side of Gertie Barrett Road, developed by D.R. Horton under the existing PR/SF-12/22 zoning; it does not change the zoning. Approval is recommended with conditions and requires three Subdivision Ordinance variances (a single rather than two street connections, corner lot width, and cul-de-sac length) that the Development Review Committee supports, though numerous technical revisions must be addressed before construction plans or a final plat can be submitted. For a developer, the site is heavily constrained by surrounding existing subdivisions with limited frontage, and preliminary approval does not authorize construction or create legal lots.
