BACKGROUND:
Forestar, the developer, is requesting the approval of a Record Plat for Whisper Glen Planned Unit Development Unit Two-B, which is located east of County Line Road and north of Theodore Street at Legacy Pointe Boulevard.

The Record Plat for Unit Two-B is consistent with the previously approved Preliminary and Final Planned Unit Development for Whisper Glen Unit Two and Unit Two-A, which were approved by the City Council on January 18, 2022. Unit Two-B is approximately 9.4 acres in size and will have 45 single-family house lots.

D.R. Horton is currently completing construction in Ashford Place Unit Two-A and Two-B as well as Whisper Glen Unit Two-A. The proposed plat is subject to the previously-approved conditions related to minimum house size, architectural features, key lots, landscaping and screening at east and west property lines per the Whisper Glen Unit 1 and Unit 2 agreements.
