Additional Backup Information:

In 2002, the City and Circle C Land, L.P., a Texas limited partnership, formerly known as Circle C Land Corp., a Texas corporation (“CCLC”), entered into a development agreement that settled a dispute between the City and CCLC related to the applicability of the City’s Save Our Springs (SOS) ordinance. The development agreement establishes limits on the development density for office, retail, residential and multi-family residential development. It can only be amended by mutual agreement of the City and the property owner.

 

CCLC is requesting Council agree to amend the development agreement for a portion of Tract 110 to allow for one or more multi-family residential developments and to remove the requirement for CCLC to construct the South Bay Extension on Tract 110. If approved, this ordinance will amend the development agreement related to Tract 110.
