A Planned Development Agreement is a voluntary contract between a local municipality, such as a city or county, and a property owner, whose land is located within the municipality’s jurisdiction. The development agreement contains the obligations of both parties and lays out the various standards and conditions that will control development of the subject property.
The Planned Development Agreement for Country Hollows (in .pdf) includes the following:
• The Developer shall have the Property zoned as Planned Development (“PD”)
• This subdivision will be serviced by Willow Park’s public water and sewer, and contains public infrastructure and improvements, which will be maintained by the City of Willow Park. This Agreement provides terms for construction of public improvements and utility services, as well as other requirements.
• HOA established.
• Three new roads
• Deer Ridge Drive
• Morning Dew Drive
• Whitetail Drive (portion within Country Hollow subdivision only)
• Compliance with Drainage Ordinances
• Sound impact analysis
• Traffic impact analysis
• Underground utility lines
• 100% masonry, except smaller facades sides and back of house, ie. chimney and gables.
