\t\t\t\t\t\t\tA new housing development is coming to Leander near the Bar W Ranch<\/a> and Larkspur<\/a> neighborhoods.<\/p>\n

The project will be located along CR 267, just south of Equine Road.<\/p>\n

The big picture<\/p>\n

Leander City Council approved the annexation of the property, known as the Alexander Tract, and a zoning change that will allow the project to move forward at its April 2 meeting.<\/p>\n

The neighborhood will be built by Pulte Homes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Of the 191 homes in the development, 108 will be built on 50-foot lots, and 83 will be built on 60-foot lots, according to plans for the site.<\/p>\n

Executive Director of Development Services Robin Griffin said Williamson County is in the process of making improvements to CR 267 adjacent to the property. A representative for the developer said the company is committed to making further improvements to the road as part of the project.<\/p>\n

One more thing<\/p>\n

The motion to change the property’s zoning passed 5-2. Council members Natomi Blair and Annette Sponseller voted against it.<\/p>\n

At the March 19 City Council meeting, both Blair and Sponseller expressed concerns about strain on the city’s water infrastructure.<\/p>\n
