Information

Subject

Ordinance 2018-05 proposes the rezoning of property located at 9714 Split Log Road. The requested change is from the SI-2 (Service Institution -- Educational) zoning district to the R-2 (Suburban Residential) zoning district The subject property includes a total of 12.78 acres and is located on the north side of Split Log Road, along the easterly boundary of the City.

Background

Williamson County Schools (WCS) requests consideration of a rezoning proposal for the property located at 9714 Split Log Road, which is situated along the eastern edge of the City. The property includes a total of 12.78 acres, and is the former Foster homestead that was purchased in 2017 for construction of Jordan Elementary School and the future construction of a middle school. WCS has determined that the 12.78-acres located east of the tributary to Owl Creek is surplus property not needed for school development. With the rezoning, WCS will be able to sell the property to another party, presumably to recoup some of its original land acquisition costs.

In April 2017, the Board of Commissioners approved Ordinance 2017-07, which changed the zoning on approximately 83.51 acres from R-2 to SI-2. This 12.78-acre remnant tract was included as part of the original rezoning. Construction continues on the new Jordan Elementary School, which is located on the remaining 70.7 +/- acre portion of the property

Presently, there is one house located on the remnant tract. According to the Property Assessor, the house includes an area of 3,224 square feet and was originally constructed in 1965. There are also several accessory structures on the property. As the property is currently owned by the school district, no development plan has been proposed to determine the potential number of developable lots.

The required community meeting was conducted on March 27th in the Annex Room. One citizen attended the meeting. The citizen along along Split Lag Road and wanted to learn more about the process for selling the property from the WCS representative who also attended the meeting.

On April 3, 2018, the Planning Commission voted ten for and zero against (10-0) to forward a recommendation of approval of Ordinance 2018-05 to the Board of Commissioners.

Second and final reading of the ordinance is scheduled for April 23, 2018.

Should you have any questions, or require additional information, please contact the Planning and Codes Director.
