The UPRR <br />is adjacent to the property to the northeast. Houston Lighting and Power <br />Company (now Centerpoint Energy) owns approx. 19 acres of land <br />adjacent to the subject tract to the south. Currently, 123 acres of land is <br />being subdivided into six reserves (restricted reserves A-F), <br />unsubdivided tract consisting of 84 acres will be platted later. The <br />facility will have an entrance along Old Underwood Road and access <br />through East 13~' Street and Battleground Road off State Highway 225. <br />The subject property is zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD). The <br />PUD zoning assigned to this tract is, to a great extent, based on the large <br />amount of undeveloped, unsubdivided acreage located in this area. <br />Development in a PUD zoning district requires that an application for <br />a general plan shall be filed and processed simultaneously with the <br />Special Conditional Use Permit. At the January 20, 2005, meeting, <br />the Commission held a public hearing for Special Conditional Use <br />Permit #SCU05-002 with a General Plan for the entire area. City <br />Council approved your recommendation at the February 14, 2005, <br />meeting. Later, the developer submitted a preliminary plat, which was <br />approved by the Commission on February 17, 2005. <br />Under the terms of Development Ordinance 1444, the proposed <br />development is considered to be a major subdivision. The <br />Development Ordinance requires atwo-stage approval process for <br />major subdivisions. The first stage is preliminary plat review and its <br />formal approval followed by submittal of a final plat, along with the <br />construction drawings and other applicable documents. Once the final <br />plat is approved, the applicant will proceed for the site development. <br />~~~~~ ~ <br />
