    SUMMARY OF CHANGES: Adopted April 28, 2020
 

Changes made to subdivision plat process 
In order to comply with recently passed state legislation, we have revised our submittal dates and checklist for subdivision plat/plan reviews. 

Plat Schedule: The new deadline for submittals will be the 1^st Monday of the month instead of the 15^th, effective for the January P&ZC meeting.  Staff review time is approximately 10 working days for the first submittal, and 5 working days for re-submittals.  Our policy is to ensure plats/plans are administratively complete, i.e. all items have been addressed, before moving forward to the P&ZC for consideration.  This ensures any issues are fully identified and addressed (or variance requested), before the plat is presented to the P&ZC/CC.  Keep our calendar on hand. 

Effective Sept. 1, 2019, use of specific building materials identified in Section IV - Building Design Standards, are not required, but are recommended. This is due to the passage of HB 2439 by the Texas State Legislature in their 86th regular session.
