Ridgeview at Panther Creek Preliminary Plat
Questions that have been asked.
what is the expect property value of these homes being built?
They are single family 5 lots. Meaning minimum lot size is 7,000 sf and minimum home sf is 1800 sf. We expect similar to what we have in PCE since most of our lots are similar to that 7,000sf minimum limit. Ultimately it’s up to the builders what they decide to build, within the parameters of the minimum lot and home SF and yard setbacks required in code.
will the new walking path from PCE to Maus middle school be maintained or cut off by the development?
The school district has stated before building the path it may be temporary. The path they built is 100% on FISD property, whether they choose to keep that or not will be their ultimate decision. There is an expected tie in from the Greenbelt between Henderson and Kingsville, that will provide a path through to the sidewalks in their neighborhood.
what are the boundarys of Northeast community park(the city says 75 acres but I don’t see how that is) in relationship to the new Ridgeview at Panther creek?
The NE community park stretches from Tyler north to Panther Creek Parkway along Honey Grove. The Eastern boundary is basically the same as the PCE eastern boundary, if you were to extend our eastern boundary line straight north. You can get a better idea by look at the city GIS maps here: http://maps.friscotexas.gov/ Under points of interest click “parks” the zoom into our area and it will show the boundaries.
what streets will be contiguous on to PCE and will there be increased traffic?
Tyler and Kingsville will continue through their neighborhood as indicated on their plans. That will actually give us additional exits onto Coit. There is no way to know if there will be increased traffic, however based on the layout we think it is more likely our residents will traverse through their neighborhood than theirs through ours.
will the new houses go to SEM elementary? Yes, That area is zoned for Sem, Maus, and Heritage.
will they be charged for the PID?
No the PID is specific and unique to our neighborhood only.
who are the developers going to be?
They are listed on the plans. There is no way to know who the builders will be until the developer starts selling lots.
Are the houses on Emerald Gate Dr. front or rear entry? Do they plan on sharing the alley with our houses on Littlefield Dr.
Emerald Gate Dr will be rear entry and will share the existing alley that Littlefield utilizes.
It looks like there is a gas line easement on the north side of this phase. Will that mean that there will be no lots allowed on the north side of Tyler in their subdivision also? There will likely be future phases of the development. The gas easment should be developed similar to ours.
Why does the staff say that open spaces are not required? Are there any in future phases? It seems there will be at least one more future phase to the north.
Staff is recommending no neighborhood park for Ridgeview. Instead they would pay a fee of $176,393 in lieu of having a park built.
How will this affect PCE? That’s really an impossible question to answer. Based on current building codes we would expect a neighborhood similar to every other new neighborhood in Frisco.
