City Council Regular Meeting Minutes

district. He noted that the request was to have consent by the end of March for a May bond
election and Council's consent would include a development agreement, utility agreement,
and an emergency agreement all at the same time. He further introduced Jonathan Woodruff,
Vice President of D.R. Horton to provide more details of the district.
Mr. Woodruff stated that the district proposed a mixed use development, called the Heights of
Baytown, in the City's Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) area. He stated that the owner of the
property, Americus Holdings, LTD would retain a portion of the property; D.R. Horton
America's Builder would purchase the single family and flex areas, which would have a
combination of uses; Jones & Carter would be the engineers; and KGA Deforest Design, LLC,
would be the landscape and architectural firm for the development. He stated that D.R. Horton
typically builds the following four (4) brands: D.R. Horton, the primary building product ranging
from $200,000 to $500,000; Express, an entry level product; Emerald, a high end brand of
$750,000 to $1 million; and Freedom, a 55 and older brand. He noted that D.R. Horton was a
Fortune 500 Company and the 3rd largest residential developer In Houston with 30 active
projects in place.
Mr. Woodruff stated that the Heights of Baytown development would be located on the
southwest corner of I-10 and Grand Parkway/Highway 99, which would ignite commercial and
retail development in this area primarily due to the rooftops being brought in. He stated that
approximately 21.5 acres of the land would be commercial, 34.3 acres would remain as flex, 32.3
acres would be for detention, and 127.9 acres would be for residential. He stated that the retail
development was not yet determined, but because of the City's interest to have greater retail that
serviced the entire City at this comer, the land plan accommodated additional commercial and
flex acreage. Mr. Woodruff stated that there were 598 single family homes with lots sizes being
designed as follows: 132lots of 40X120ft.; 353 lots of 50X120ft.; and 113 lots of 60X120ft. He
stated that the development would also include identity markers, as requested, along with a
recreation center with a pool, playground, and pavilion with restrooms. He stated that on both
sides of Needlepoint Road the main entry would be a boulevard type road to include water
features along with monumentation and columns that identify the community brand. He noted
that there would be a Commercial Property Owners Association along with a residential Home
Owners Association (HOA) that would create one identity for the project and further noted that
this brand would be a catalyst project for development along and around the Grand Parkway
similar to other development along the Grand Parkway towards Highway 59/hnerstate 69.
During further discussion of the project details, Mr. Woodruff stated that in conversing with City
staff, on -street parking was a hot topic, which could be addressed through the HOA. He stated
that the community would be in the Barbers Hill ISD, in which they consider homes that would
be feasible to the subdivisions in the area such as, River Farms and Champion Estates. He stated
that the market for a one story plan with a lot size of 40ft., would be approximately 1,400 to
2,500 square feet starting at $200,000; lot size of 50ft, would be 1,800 square feet starting at
$240,000, and the lot size of 60ft, would be 2,100 to 3,400 square feet starting at $260,000. He
noted that the masonry would be stone and brick and the same for the two story with addition of
stucco.

Lastly, Mr. Woodruff stated that the anticipated timeframe would be as follows: clearing and
grubbing the site would start in May 2020; the first house infrastructure along with the initial flex
area development would be developed in March of 2021; model homes would open in April
2021; closing of the fast house would be in May 2021, the initial Flex development would open
in February 2022; the 21 acres would possibly be developed in March along with more,
commercial development openings in the beginning of Year 2023.
Council Member Hoskins expressed his disappointment in the type of home models selected to
be a representation of Baytown for this project. In response to Council Member Hoskins
comment, Mr. Woodruff stated that residential use adjacent to the Grand Parkway and I-10 was
not an amenity, but rather a negative but the ways to overcome that was by including amenities
to entice participation. He further stated that preserving the amount of commercial acreage was
the reason for the higher density land planning and that they observed the market area, the
surrounding competition, and what was going on in the Barbers Hill ISD to determine which
residential development would work best for the project. Additionally, he stated that in order to
support the commercial development that the City desired a large number of residential rooftops
were needed or the aspirations for the commercial development would not exist.
Council Member Presley stated that according to the grid presented the fifty and sixty feet lots
were the best sellers and further inquired of the reason for matching the forty foot lots if
matching the market was a considering factor. In response to Council Member Presley's inquiry,
Mr. Woodruff stated that the reason came down to the financial feasibility of the getting the right
number of rooftops to build and support the amenities and entry, as well as, setting aside
approximately 65 acres for commercial development. Council Member Presley further noted that
Council's reservation regarding this project was due to the possibility of the acres reserved for
the commercial development not certain to materialize along with the fact that it was mentioned
during this project's presentation that there were constraints with regards to the Goose Creek
Reserve development that were not mentioned during its initial presentation. Mr. Woodruff noted
that the entry, amenities, and landscaping to Goose Creek Reserve surpassed any development
currently done in the City of Baytown.
Council Member Himsel expressed his disappointment with regards to the way the developer
pitched the street parking enforcement on the HOA and further inquired of the setbacks for the
properties. Mr. Woodruff stated that the setbacks on this development would be the ones set
forth by the City and further noted that the expressed concern could be addressed by the front
setbacks being extended or the width of the right-of-way being increased which ultimately would
provide more pavements for the street and less driveway. Mr. Woodruff further noted that the
development would be according to the City's standards and if changes were necessary they
would encourage the City to make such changes for them to follow. He stated for clarity that
because of recent Texas law changes they give the City the ability to write into the restrictions
for the neighborhood the masonry percentages and material specifics for them to adhere to. He
also mentioned that only allowing for a standard one size lot in a community could impact the
commercial development because the mixture of lots and the higher density nature provides a
retail developer more excitement as opposed to a regular neighborhood. Additionally, Mr.
Woodruff noted that they could adjust the plan to accommodate the City's direction.

Mr. Woodruff stated that if the City's desire is to have a low density deal with more extensive
homes there would not be commercial potential. He further noted that based on the input from
the contacts recommended by Bret Gardella multifamily is an important part of this project as it
provides for additional residents which would utilize the retail establishments.
Council Member Hoskins inquired for clarity if Mr. Woodruff alluded to saying that when the
project started it would be all residential, but the City influenced it be added commercial and
flex. Mr. Woodruff stated that the original land plan proposed to the City included a corporate
campus and various uses, in which the seller marketed for such, but was unsuccessful at securing
a buyer. Additionally, he stated that there was still potential for a corporate campus to exist
through the flex space and commercial and further noted that their plan was based on the
direction from the City's staff and consultants.
Mayor Capetillo inquired if there was a discussion with the Barbers Hill ISD regarding a future
school being built. Mr. Woodruff noted that the owner of the property would have insight on
such and further stated that he didn't have a conversation directly with the district but being that
the number of lots would decrease it wouldn't warrant for an elementary school.
The recommended consensus from Council was to keep the 21.5 acres of commercial space,
lessen the flex space, alleviate the 40 foot lots and provide for increased lot sizes, address the
street parking concern, and provide more details on the pocket parks. Mr. Woodruff inquired if
Council agreed that the solution to address the street parking concern would be to have a greater
setback. Mayor Capetillo stated that the Council would rely on the developer's recommendation
for determining a solution for consideration.
Mayor Capetillo recommended for the developer to consider the possibility of incorporating a
fire station facility into the plan and having cul-de-sacs. Mr. Woodruff noted that to
accommodate cul-de-sacs lots would be decreased.
Mr. Bryan Yeates, the attorney for the MUD noted that entitlement was the key component to
this project, in which, the election codes drive the deadlines to be able to complete the
entitlement process. He further noted that the election was scheduled for May 02, 2020, and they
needed Council's consent advance prior to early voting of the election. Additionally, he noted
that the property was still under contract; therefore, there would be more conversation between
the current owner's and D.R. Horton regarding Council's additional feedback.
Lastly, Assistant City Manager Woolery noted that an emergency services agreement would be
considered with the project.
