26-131 — plat
This preliminary plat for the Saddle Crest residential subdivision involves a 26.871-acre development with approximately 100+ lots in two phases, subject to floodplain constraints from Singing Hills Creek and requiring coordination with the City's Quail Meadow Drainage CIP improvements. The development is zoned SF6 (Single Family) with planned density of 3.28 lots per acre, featuring 9.5 acres of open space and phased build-out dependent on FEMA floodplain map revision approval. Infrastructure improvements including storm water system coordination, sanitary sewer extension, and water service connections will generate additional property tax revenue for the City.
17-2026 — Single-family residential development (Saddle Crest subdivision) with 88 single-family homes and 7 open space lots
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.
