Commission records describe the lease parcel as 0.2323 acres within the larger, approximately 8+‑acre retail parcel that includes Hobby Lobby and other tenants. The engineer of record presenting the project described a three‑bay Take 5 building with in‑vehicle service and nine queuing spaces associated with the operation. Staff and the design team explained the proposed layout removes a portion of existing parking to accommodate the lease area and queuing lanes; the project is designated “alternate” because the proposed parking supply for the overall development after the lease would be below the city’s current parking requirement for the full retail parcel (staff cited a required count of 95 spaces vs. a provided 79 spaces), while the applicant proposes to rely on project precedents and on‑site queuing to meet operational needs.

On landscaping, the design team said the lease area proposes two new trees and the removal of one existing tree on a landscape island; the applicant also proposes additional planting across the site to replace trees lost during droughts and storms. Staff noted the original retail approval complied with a lower landscape requirement (about 7.5 percent) while the current ordinance requires 12.5 percent landscape area; the design team said the lease area increases pervious area on the leased pad and adds roughly 2,000 square feet of green surface within the vicinity of the Take 5 facility but that the lease footprint alone does not bring the entire 8+‑acre parcel up to the 12.5 percent threshold. Commissioners debated whether to require the property owner to bring the entire retail parcel to the current 12.5 percent standard; some commissioners said the long‑standing existing condition and the fact the applicant is making on‑site improvements supported approval, while at least one commissioner objected to continuing to grandfather the larger site.

After discussion the commission voted to approve both the alternate site plan and the alternate landscape plan for Plantation Village Section 12 Lot 1A to incorporate the Take 5 lease (filed 06/03/2025). The motion for the landscape amendment recorded a “nay” from at least one commissioner in the audio but the item was carried and staff moved forward to obtain signed documents. Staff said final signed plan sheets and the recorded lease line must be submitted before permits or recording actions proceed.

The approvals allow Driven Brands (Take 5) to proceed with the lease and the developer to revise site plans and landscape plans to reflect the approved alternate configurations; final permitting and construction will require submittal of the signed plans and contractor permits.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Lake Jackson - Planning Commission - Jun 03, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The commission approved an alternate site plan and landscape plan to allow a 0.2323‑acre lease parcel in Plantation Village Section 12 for a Take 5 drive‑through oil‑change facility, with modifications to parking and additional landscaping to replace lost trees.","taxTitle","City of Lake Jackson, Brazoria County, Texas","taxId",3533,"location","Texas","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6542237,"Lake Jackson planning commission approves replat and site/landscape amendments for Parkway Plaza",679,151000,830000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3647016-3e130c808c054463207fc6cbfe40bffa&start=151&end=830","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3647016-3e130c808c054463207fc6cbfe40bffa/thumbnail_151000.jpg","/articles/6542237/Texas/Lake-Jackson-planning-commission-approves-replat-and-sitelandscape-amendments-for-Parkway-Plaza","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6542237-52720c6e23209870a74bcdd8bf6e0586/orig.mp4?Expires=1771098577&Signature=QuVbpchogKDW980enlm4WU3jWmCn8xFphLxAwzA7bLMOCCumDEuoQDvhCMhmdfBZcgVWBX0psChUtkfE3iNp8noBx9vtx2BKr6c5ugsSGdlfNkiNXnNYlAjtIIUljYR6ZmM11PD0~jSjQeazA4wSnEy1-5cxnax6lXBanpAD5GMUpnBNANuaHxBrV6CuPNFF0MenIV0ycZUFrECC5EF4RrfCFAqkvJCsaLPO6gP2UzxEjxWHYnpBIteQquuc4nRQPPWfZyjc5QKeFZbbx8DQR5pOA0IjYiuV5Ir79NMs~uo4~dzoKtoIW0EWw0IzzLVXZM~SipI1A-Li2qP~T-oFpQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Lake Jackson Planning Commission on June 3 approved an administrative and final replat of Lot 2 in Parkway Plaza Subdivision and related alternate site‑plan and landscape plan amendments for the property in Plantation Village Subdivision Section 4.

The replat divides Lot 2 into Lot 2A and Lot 2B so that one parcel will separate a single office (identified in the record as “Rick’s office”) from the remaining offices, making the smaller parcel available for sale, according to Joshua Groves, who said he represented Baker and Lawson and presented the application. “So pretty clear cut. Lot 2 is gonna be divided into 2 tracks,” Groves said during the meeting.

Commission staff explained that utilities, cross‑access agreements and shared parking for the complex remain in place after the replat. Staff said the existing parking arrangement is unchanged in quantity; distribution shifts between the newly created lots but the complex retains an overall surplus of parking spaces. Staff also described the site‑plan amendment as an “alternate” because the restaurant on the site (Swamp Shack) was built under an older parking standard; staff said the restaurant’s requirement had been calculated at one parking space per three seats (53 seats required 51 spaces), while the current ordinance uses 20 spaces per 1,000 square feet. Meeting material and staff comment indicated the restaurant currently shows 40 dedicated spaces plus 11 surplus spaces allocated from the development’s shared supply, leaving a net surplus of roughly one space across the shared parking pool.

On the landscape plan amendment, staff reported the site has lost two trees since the original approval and the applicant proposes to replace those trees and otherwise update planting to restore the previously approved scheme. Commissioners asked about the tree losses and staff confirmed the amendment is intended to bring the planting back into conformance with what was originally approved for the site.

The commission made separate motions to approve the replat, the alternate site‑plan amendment and the landscape plan amendment. Each motion was seconded and the chair called the votes; commissioners voiced approval on the replat and site plan items with no recorded opposition, and the landscape amendment was approved after discussion.

The approvals mean the legal lot lines, shared access and parking agreements will be updated to reflect Lot 2A and 2B and the recorded landscape plan will be revised to show the replacement plantings. Staff indicated the applicants must sign documents and submit final plats and plan sheets consistent with the approvals before recording.

The items appeared on the administrative and final review docket as filed on June 3, 2025; applicants and staff said the changes are intended to facilitate the sale of the separated office and to address tree losses and parking distributions within the existing Parkway Plaza development.","The City of Lake Jackson Planning Commission approved a replat that divides Lot 2 of Parkway Plaza into two parcels and associated alternate site‑plan and landscape plan amendments, maintaining existing shared parking and replacing two lost trees.","actionData","errors"]
