On September 19, 2000, by a vote of 7-2, the County Planning Commission recommended denial of the Struthers Ranch request for a waiver from the County's 300 year water availability rule. During the course of this hearing, Dana Duthie of the Donala District stated that the District may have as little as 30 years and probably no more than 156 years of water available to be pumped.
On October 26, 2000, the Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved the waiver request. This action cleared the way for submission of sketch plan, rezoning request, preliminary plan, and final plat. The whole process may take a year or more.
On November 21, 2000, by a vote of 8-1, the County Planning Commission recommended approval of the Struthers Ranch Sketch Plan. The approval was subject to conditions and notations including requirements that:

Any residential lots on the north boundary shall be a minimum size of one (1) acre and shall include at least a one hundred (100) foot setback from the common property line with Chaparral Hills Subdivision.

No access through platted road easements in Chaparral Hills shall be allowed.

Residential lots in on the north side of the drainage swale ( Phase II ) shall be at least one-half (1/2) acre in size.

On January 18, 2001, the Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved the Struthers Ranch Sketch Plan. The approval was subject to the conditions and notations shown above.

Future steps include the following hearings by the Planning Commission and then the Board of County Commissioners: 

Rezoning from RR-2 to Planned Unit Development (PUD)

Preliminary Plan (this hearing may be combined with the rezoning hearing)

Final Plat
