Development
Katy Boardwalk District to feature more single-family homes
Katy Boardwalk District will now see more single-family homes following a zoning change approved by Katy City Council on Nov. 10 in a 4-1 vote. Council member Rory Robertson cast the dissenting vote, citing concerns with lot sizes. The district, which is located near Katy Mills Mall, was initially slated to see 107 attached brownstone units, 13 patio homes and 40 villas, Pelican Builders representative Ethan Harvell said. However, Harvell said the new plan will feature “wider but shallower single-family lots” with the goal of creating floor plans with living areas on the first floor. “Our vision for development is to really execute the village-style single-family development that has been envisioned in the [planned development] boardwalk since its inception,” he said. The primary changes include no garages to face Kingsland Boulevard, new architectural standards and new fence standards, Harvell said.
