The gist
Located in Denton County, the land will be part of Council District 10, which is represented by Alan Blaylock.
The development is east of I-35W along Litsey Road and will have 131 houses on the 35.832-acre parcel near Chadwick Farms Park and Chadwick Farms subdivision, according to city documents.
All the houses will be part of Northwest ISD.
The backstory
The development will include 6.13 acres of private open space on what is currently vacant land. I AM ONE, Inc. and Nolin Ragdsale submitted the annexation request Sept. 30, 2024, according to council documents.
The city will have a negative effect to the general fund for the first year, but will have a positive one in years thereafter, city documents state. During the next 40 years, the estimated cumulative taxable property value is $33.2 million.
Fort Worth will have to maintain 2.28 miles of new roads, 12 drain inlets, 3,165 feet of new stormwater pipelines and 5,660 linear feet of eight-inch new wastewater pipelines with the new development, according to city documents.
Also on the agenda
Another proposed housing project was turned down at the meeting.
D.R. Horton was looking to change a 12-acre site from one-family residential to a zero lot line/cluster, which would allow for multiple homes.
The location is at the southwest corner of Timberland Boulevard and North Caylor Road in District 10. There are currently two single-family properties there, according to city documents.
Blaylock said due to opposition, it would need a supermajority to pass, but he made a motion to deny with prejudice, meaning it could come back at a later date.
The Fort Worth Zoning Commission denied the project 10-0, according to council documents.
One more thing
The Fort Worth Zoning Commission also denied a request for Mavis Tire Supply at 1258 Timberland Boulevard. Blaylock motioned to deny this with prejudice.
According to documents, Mavis Discount Tire was seeking a conditional-use permit to construct a minor auto repair facility with seven bay doors facing a residential district. Mavis representatives said that 85% of the business would be the purchase/installation/repair of tires.
Blaylock said the applicant informed him June 9 they were withdrawing the case but he said it was too late to remove from the agenda.
