Georgetown City Council approved the first reading of a voluntary annexation of 38.24 acres at 3307 and 3311 Hwy. 29, Georgetown, at its April 26 meeting.

The applicant wishes to develop a single-family subdivision, Riverstone, on the property, which has its future land use defined as mixed-density neighborhood. However, there is no zoning designation on the property because it is located in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction.

The subject property has three residential structures on it connected by a private drive that has access to Hwy. 29.

The remainder of the property is undeveloped and hosts a dense array of trees and foliage.

The southern portion of the property has approximately 600 feet of frontage along the South Fork of the San Gabriel River.


With previous approval from the Georgetown Planning Committee, the application has been deemed as consistent with the city's comprehensive plan.

Furthermore, the letter of intent states "the proposed connections to the adjacent single family neighborhoods will help increase circulation and connectivity which will address the health, safety and general welfare for the existing and potential residents of the city."

The second reading will be conducted at the next City Council meeting May 10.
