zoning request:
- Reduce number of lots from 89 to 84.
- Front and rear setbacks to match R1 Zoning district. Front/ rear 40 feet and sides

stucco as accent. Exception: Tuscan or Mediterranean style houses.
- Wood windows only. No aluminum or vinyl.
- New concept plan reflecting the changes noted above. Same general layout and
boundaries.
- Town taking back the responsibility for FM1938 Streetscape installation.
Discussion ensued regarding the following:
Possible zoning of vacant tracts of land surrounding Terra Bella, Glenwyck, and Solana.
Differences between the Comprehensive Plan and Land Use Map.
Vaquero and Glenwyck architectural requirements.
An architectural planner to provide an expert report on probable price point for a home
built using the proposed standards.
Average homes would be 5,000 square feet and lot prices of approximately $250,000.00.
The length of time to complete the subdivision using custom builders.
Building phases including infrastructure, streetscape and tree mitigation plans.
Traffic impact should the property remain commercial.
Mr. Mehrdad Moayedi stated that the proposed Granada subdivision is meeting the same
architectural standards as set forth in Vaquero.
Discussion also ensued regarding the quality of the proposed subdivision, production
builders, custom home builders, and creating an FAQ for residents.
Mayor Wheat then asked Mr. Moayedi for an update regarding Vallecito proposed mixed
use development.
Mr. Moayedi stated that he has listened to residents and believes most are comfortable
with the concept but not with the inclusion of multi-family rental units. They are in the
process of revising the concept plan which would allow for approximately 350 owned
townhomes or condos that will allow for height in the development along the water.
He also stated that they will be withdrawing the current zoning request for Vallectio at the
next Planning and Zoning Commission and Town Council meeting.
