3. Discussion & Action: to consider a request for change in rezoning of “PD”
Planned Development District for Red River Development’s single-family
dwelling subdivision of Country Hollow of 19.16 acres John H. Phelps Survey,
Abstract No. 1046, City of Willow Park, Parker County, Texas.
Changes to the Planned Development (zoning) were presented to Commissioners by
Staff, as per the packet's brief.
Rob McClain, developer for History Maker Homes, provided a slideshow presentation
to the Commission which reviewed the company profile for History Maker Homes and
sample floor plans for Country Hollow, and he reviewed the requested changes to the
PD and reasoning.
In response to Commissioners' questions, Mr. McClain stated that the homes are
targeted for sale; intended to only be built by History Maker Homes; construction to
begin at end of this calendar year to January 2024 with an anticipated build-out in 12-
18 months; and sizes would range from 1,700 square feet (per PD) to potentially 2,800
square feet, although that was not definitive.
It was questioned by Commissioners as to whether the revision of the 20' setback was
posing a problem, to which Mr. McClain stated no issues; construction of sidewalks
along the streets was confirmed by Chris Hartke of TNP Engineering, and sidewalks
around the retention areas' right-of-way was still being considered by the potential new
owners of History Maker.
There was also mention of the [previous developer's commitment to] aeration in the
ponds, if they hold water consistently, with no continued discussion. Fencing around
the rear of the retention areas was also questioned by Commissioners, to which Mr.
Hartke replied that there are existing privacy fencing along the rear, and that a "shelf"
is typically designed around the retention so that one does not fall from the top directly
into the pond; however, Mr. Hartke mentioned that it could be discussed further if it
became an active community concern.
