body

BACKGROUND:

This conceptual subdivision is for Mockingbird Ridge Phases 1-3 of the four-phase Mockingbird Ridge Planned Development.  Proposed Phases 1-3 comprise a single-family residential subdivision with 493 lots, five tracts, and 3.74 miles of roadway on 169.38 acres.

 

The developer is Boyd Development LLC.

 

The plan was prepared by Kimley-Horn & Associates.

 

The property is zoned Planned Development (PD) and is part of the Heathbrook Development of Regional Impact.

 

Key Points:

•                     The concept plan identifies three phases for the development of this subdivision.

 

•                     Lot Setbacks:                     Front - 20 feet

                                Side - five feet (20 feet for street side-yard setback)

                                          Rear - 10 feet

 

•                     Lots will be a minimum of 50 feet wide, with a minimum lot area of 6,000 square feet.

 

•                     The typical residential right-of-way is 50 feet with curb and gutter, 10-foot utility easements, and five-foot sidewalks on both sides.

 

•                     Roadways, drainage retention areas, and the conveyance system are proposed for private maintenance by the Homeowners’ Association (HOA) and Community Development District (CDD).

 

•                     Potable water and sanitary sewer systems will be publicly maintained following the standard one-year maintenance period.

 

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS:

•                     The conceptual subdivision plan is designed in accordance with the approved PD plan and Standards Book.

 

•                     A developer’s agreement for the subdivision is required with the improvement plan submittal and must be approved and recorded prior to submitting the final plat application.

 

•                     The amenity center, shown as Tract C, requires a site plan for development.

 

•                     The conceptual subdivision plan (Case No. SUB25-0016) was recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission on June 8, 2026.

 

Staff recommends approval.

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will assume responsibility for maintenance of the potable water and sanitary sewer systems following the standard maintenance period.
