District 5 is growing at a rapid pace, new home builds are started daily. We need to stop the building in the ETJ because this area will eventually be annexed & the houses built there will have been built without Cibolo building & quality standards. We should not let these homebuilders, who are building in the ETJ, tap into our sewer & water infrastructure until they agree to be annexed, apply for permits, & build their houses to Cibolo codes & standards.
We should require builders to provide funding for local road improvements near & around their developments as a stipulation to being issued building permits.
We have yet to build a SF-1 new housing development here in Cibolo. We should put our foot down & not continue to allow rezoning to SF-5 or SF-6. Many people would like to buy 1-acre lots, which is in our Comprehensive Master Plan, but has not yet transpired. Homebuyers are interested in large-lot homes similar to what Chesmar is building up at the Harvest Hill neighborhood in Marion.
We are the city of choice. We need to provide homebuyers a choice to buy new houses on 1-acre lots right here in Cibolo.
