A dead-end road “leading to nowhere” on the most recent plat for a large development on the east side of Boerne left residents up in arms over what appeared to tee up a future rural land grab.
The Boerne Planning and Zoning Commission sided with residents during its regular meeting Monday evening, expressing concern about a change to the Ranches at Creekside master plan for a road connecting Herff Ranch Boulevard to Woodland Ranch Road. However, the planners defeatedly approved the host of final plats for the development, citing state legislation that left their hands tied.
“I want everyone to know we have struggled before on numerous occasions of the commission with these final plat conditions and we’re handcuffed by state law,” Planner Tim Bannwolf said.
