Commissioners Approve Master Development Plan for Lakeside Horizon Subdivision in Precinct 1

Atascosa County Commissioners Court made significant strides in community development during their recent meeting on August 25, 2025. A key highlight was the approval of a master development plan for the Lakeside Horizon Subdivision, which is set to be constructed in three phases along North State Highway 16 in Precinct 1. This project will ultimately create 32 new lots, addressing the growing demand for housing in the area.

Commissioner Gillespie initiated the motion to approve the development plan, which was seconded by Commissioner Bowen, reflecting a collaborative effort among the commissioners to enhance local infrastructure and housing options. The subdivision aims to provide more residential opportunities for Atascosa County residents, contributing to the community's growth and development.

In addition to the housing project, the meeting also celebrated the successful staffing of the sheriff's department. Sheriff reported that his department is now fully staffed, a crucial development for ensuring public safety and effective law enforcement in the county. This achievement was met with a motion from Commissioner Pavelic and support from Commissioner Bowen, highlighting the court's commitment to maintaining a secure environment for residents.

These discussions underscore the Commissioners Court's focus on addressing community needs through strategic planning and resource allocation. As Atascosa County continues to grow, these initiatives will play a vital role in shaping the future of the community, ensuring that it remains a safe and welcoming place for all residents.
