The Horseshoe Bay City Council has approved two cut-and-fill variances for the Cap Rock Thundercloud subdivision, allowing the project to move forward under specific conditions after months of public hearings.
The variances, approved at the March 17 council meeting, lift the previous four-foot grading limit for the development, which includes 10 garden home lots and a 1-acre parcel for two additional homes off Bay West Boulevard in Horseshoe Bay West.
Replay Destinations will be granted the variances after addressing all staff comments, prohibiting construction parking on public streets, and finalizing an overflow parking plan for Cap Rock.
Public hearings on the variances spanned January through March. Residents generally supported the project but raised concerns about traffic, drainage, infrastructure, and overflow parking.
“We are thrilled to be at this stage of the journey that has been a couple of months in the process,” Brianne Kelsey, Senior Vice President of Development for Replay, said in the meeting.
