Body
Staff proposes amendments to the Mesquite Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance in response to Senate Bill 15, which limits municipal regulation of certain single-family residential development on qualifying tracts. The amendments establish standards for qualifying small lot residential development and revise related zoning and subdivision requirements to comply with State law while preserving the City's existing development standards where permitted.
The amendment package consists of two exhibits. Exhibit A amends the Mesquite Zoning Ordinance, including establishing new Section 2.505 for small lot single-family residential development. Exhibit B amends the Subdivision Ordinance to address related platting, lot, building line, and parkland dedication requirement.
Recommended/Desired Action
Following the public hearing, staff recommends approval of the ordinance.
