Changes to provide path for new local housing options
LEWISVILLE More housing options are on the horizon after the City Council approved three zone change requests during a public meeting. An ordinance granting a zone change will allow for a planned development at 301 E. Uecker Lane and 333 S. Uecker Lane. The mixed-use property will consist of 21 single-family detached homes and 41 townhomes with 1.8 acres of open space on 7.94 acres, according to the Jan. 9 council agenda item. The open space will consist of 1.5 acres of public parkland situated on the northern portion of the site along Oak Bend Drive and an adjoining 0.3- acre private open space containing a detention facility at the southeast corner of Oak Bend Drive and South Uecker Lane. A development is also planned for The Realm Subdistrict of Castle Hills. A zone change from planned development multifamily to planned development estate townhouse
cleared the way for a 12-lot detached single-family development. The 16.719-acre site will be located at the northwest corner of Lady Tessala Avenue and the Essex Drive extension. An undeveloped lot at the north- west corner of Oakwood Lane and Bellaire Boulevard is expected to be the future site of a duplex. The property will be adjacent to an existing residential alley and is surrounded by single-family and multifamily housing as well as neigh- borhood-serving commercial uses. The existing residential alley will be used for vehicular access since a driveway is prohibited on Bellaire Boulevard and would be unsafe on Oakwood Lane due to the curve in the road, according to the agenda item. These changes align with the Lewisville 2025 Vision Plan, which includes additional housing options, officials said.
