Date:  Application Submittal Type:

ITEM SUMMARY:

The applicant is requesting to replat approximately 75 acres of land in order to subdivide 1 lot and establish four (4) lots. Royal Manufacturing Phase III Lots 1 & 2, Block 3 was previously recorded at the County. The applicant is proposing to subdivide what was previously Lot 2 into Lots 3-6. The subject property is currently zoned Manufacturing - Light District (M-1).

UDC Section 21.9.3.J states: Every lot shall be provided with adequate access to a public street, either by direct frontage on such street, or by public access easement approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

This replat is being heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission because two lots in the proposed subdivision only have access through a public access easement.

GENERAL LOCATION AND SITE DESCRIPTION:

This site is generally located 1,860 feet to the west of the Tejas Way and Doerr Lane intersection.

ACCESS AND CIRCULATION:

The portions of the proposed subdivision will have frontage along Tejas Way. There is a cross access easement that parallels the frontage of Tejas Way. The applicant is proposing Lots 4 and 6 to be abutting Tejas Way, and Lots 3 and 5 to be accessed through easements, if the Planning and Zoning Commission approves the subdivision in accordance with UDC 21.9.3.J. 

TREE MITIGATION AND PRESERVATION:

The applicant is intending to remove trees and will be responsible for complying with Unified Development Code (UDC), Section 21.9.9 Tree Preservation and Mitigation.

PUBLIC SERVICES:

The site is serviced by Schertz water and sewer, Cibolo Creek Municipal Authority (CCMA), CPS Energy, AT&T, Spectrum, and Center Point Energy.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS:

The previous Royal Manufacturing Phase III Lots 1 & 2, Block 3 subdivision had an approved Subdivision Improvement Agreement that allowed the applicant to record the previous final plat. Any additional public improvements required for this subdivision are required to be installed prior to recording of the replat per UDC, Section 21.4.15.

Water: The property will be serviced by the City of Schertz for water. A 12-inch water line runs along Tejas Way.

Sewer: The property will be serviced by the City of Schertz for sewer. A 8-inch gravity line runs along the south of the property parallel to the Union Pacific railroad tracks.

Drainage: The applicant is responsible for all drainage associated with the subject property, and for compliance with Stormwater regulations. A drainage report has been reviewed and approved by the City Engineer.

Sidewalks, Hike and Bike Trails: Sidewalks have been constructed along both sides of Tejas Way throughout the subdivision. 

Road Improvements: Tejas Way has been constructed with curbing and sidewalks. Any further construction plans for public improvements have been submitted and reviewed with no objection from the Engineering Departments.

STAFF ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATION:

The replat is consistent with the applicable requirements, ordinances, and regulations for this property. It has been reviewed with no objections by the Engineering, Fire, and Planning Departments. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the replat as presented.
