The property is located within Planned Development District (PD-132). BACKGROUND This plat was considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission during the June 11, 2014 meeting. However, due to unclear notes on the plat, the project was continued to the June 25, 2014 meeting. The applicant will be present at the meeting in order to clarify General Note 11 and General Note 12. The applicant is proposing to replat seven existing lots (The Preserve at Pecan Creek Section N, Phase 3A; The Preserve at Pecan Creek Section N, Phase 3B) into nine lots, two lots being open space to be maintained by the homeowner s association. The property is currently vacant. Per the applicant, the purpose of the replat is to accommodate the location and maintenance of a retention wall that will be located on Lots 90X and 108X. The final plats for this subdivision were first approved in PD-132 permits five units per acre. This replat does not increase the density. The proposed request is in conformance with the approved Planned Development District Ordinances. The Denton Development Code (DDC) defines a replat as a change in a map of an approved or recorded subdivision plat if such change affects any street layout on such map or area reserved thereon for public use or any lot line or if it affects any map or plan legally recorded prior to the adoption of any regulations controlling subdivisions. In addition to the above, Section of the Texas Local Government Code states that a replat of a subdivision or part of a subdivision may be recorded and is controlling over the preceding plat without vacation of that plat if the replat: 1. is signed and acknowledged by only the owners of the property being re-platted;
