17-2026 — Single-family residential development (Saddle Crest subdivision) with 88 single-family homes and 7 open space lots in Watauga, TX

This rezoning request would convert 26.8 acres of currently vacant single-family zoned land into a Planned Development allowing 88 single-family homes and 7 open space lots. The development will maintain approximately 35% of the property (9.5 acres) as open space for natural habitat and drainage, with significant community opposition focused on loss of green space, increased traffic and flooding risks, and strain on neighborhood character. The zoning change is consistent with the One Watauga Comprehensive Plan's Low Density Residential designation and will proceed to City Council for final decision on April 13, 2026.
