At its May 14 meeting the Weatherford Planning and Zoning Commission approved multiple final plats for residential and commercial subdivisions and noted standard conditions for recording; a related preliminary plat (Racetrack) was denied after the commission disapproved the project's zoning and CUP.
Staff presented each plat and recommended approval subject to the subdivision ordinance and project‑specific conditions (right‑of‑way dedications, easements, public improvements and required build lines). The commission approved:
• Center Point Addition — final plat for three commercial lots on approximately 9.174 acres at the northeast corner of Center Point Road and the I‑20 frontage road; preliminary plat had been approved Oct. 22, 2024.
• Morningside — final plat for 70 residential lots and nine open‑space lots on approximately 25.669 acres along Old Dicey Road; preliminary plat approved Dec. 17, 2024. Staff noted a minor change between preliminary and final plat converting Block B, Lot 11 to residential and Block A, Lot 1 to HOA, which staff said posed no detrimental effect.
• Wasson Ranch Phase 6 — final plat for 10 residential lots and one HOA lot on approximately 15.969 acres along Eagle Drive; approval subject to standard conditions.
• Kerus Estates — final plat for two residential lots on approximately 12.576 acres; staff noted the plat must show compliance with spacing and setback requirements for on‑site sewage facilities and must acknowledge on the plat that no public sanitary sewer service is available to the site at the time of platting.
All four final plats were approved unanimously (some votes included recusal noted in the minutes). The preliminary plat for Racetrack Weatherford (two lots on 7.341 acres at the northeast corner of Rick Williamson Memorial Highway and I‑20) was disapproved by the commission after the zoning map amendment and CUP for that project were denied.
Why this matters: plat approvals allow developers to record lots and proceed toward permitting and construction, subject to completion of public improvements and compliance with subdivision requirements; the Kerus Estates plat includes an explicit acknowledgement about lack of public sewer service, which affects future development and on‑site sewage system requirements.
