1. No Subdivision or Development of land will be allowed until the Subdivider demonstrates that the Subdivision will provide Adequate Public Facilities, including facilities for stormwater, water, wastewater, transportation, and other facilities required by these regulations.
2. Public and private facilities and improvements must be of at least the minimum capacity necessary to provide Adequate Public Facilities to the development, as determined by the agency responsible for providing the facility and shall conform to and be properly related to the Comprehensive Plan and any applicable Technical Manual.
3. The standards and regulations of this Article 2 supplement, and facilitate the enforcement of, provisions and standards contained in the UDC and Building Codes adopted by the City. Violation of, or non-conformance with, one or more sections of this UDC or adopted the Building Codes [the adopted Building Codes] may result in denial of an application for Subdivision.

1. Creation of a development site on a single lot or tract;
2. Subdivision of land to divide a lot or tract into two or more parcels;
3. Combination of lots or tracts;
4. Amendment(s) to a recorded Plat; or
5. Correction of errors on a recorded Plat.

1. Dedication of an easement or right-of-way by a separate document approved by the City and recorded with County; or
2. Division of land created by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

1. Building Code, Zoning Code, Flood Regulations, Technical Manuals, and all other applicable laws and standards of the City and County; and
2. All applicable laws, rules and regulations of the Federal Government and the State of Texas and their duly constituted agencies.

1. Prohibit the indiscriminate location and spacing of driveways while maintaining reasonable vehicular access to and from the public street system;
2. Reduce conflicting turning movements and congestion and thereby reduce vehicular accidents; and
3. Maintain and enhance a positive image for the attraction of new, high-quality developments in the City.

1. It shall be a violation of this UDC to construct, reconstruct, relocate or in any way alter the design or operation of any driveway without first being released by the City to begin construction.
2. The City Engineer may prohibit a permit for a driveway if the driveway is detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare.

1. A Common Access Easement is required between abutting lots used, zoned, or planned for nonresidential uses, mixed-uses, or multi-family uses in any combination and fronting on any street section, unless the City Engineer authorizes an exemption due to site constraints. Abutting lots used, zoned, or planned for single-family residential uses may take access from a common driveway, provided each lot individually meets the minimum lot frontage requirements of Section 3.4.1 or 50' if Section 3.4.1 is not applicable.

2. Access easement.

(i) The use of common driveways requires the dedication of a Common Access Easement (also known as a mutual access easement or reciprocal access easement) that affords access to a public street for each property that is restricted from obtaining direct access due to the standards of this subsection 2.5.10 (see Figure 2.5.10-1: Shared Driveway With Cross Access Easement).

Figure 2.5.10-1: Shared Driveway With Cross Access Easement

(ii) Common Access Easement dedications are dedicated on the Final Plat of the subject properties, unless previously filed by separate instrument with the County. Alternatively, the Common Access Easement may be dedicated by separate instrument, so long as the separate instrument requires City approval to amend.
(iii) A Final Plat that includes a Common Access Easement must state that the owner(s) of the property are responsible for maintaining the Common Access Easement.
(iv) A Common Access Easement shall encompass the entire width of the planned driveway or 25 feet, whichever is greater, plus an additional width of five (5) feet on both sides of the drive.

1. Driveway stacking is driven by the number of anticipated trips based on parking spaces, and shall be provided on multi-family or nonresidential properties for corresponding driveways in accordance with Table 2.5-2: Minimum Driveway Stacking Requirements for driveways that provide ingress/egress to parking areas of twenty (20) or greater spaces. Stacking depth shall be measured from the right-of-way line.
2. Stacking depth may be no less than 15' or the depth of the required landscape buffer, whichever is greater.
 

1. Driveways are prohibited where adequate sight distance is not available for the established speed limit.
2. If a field inspection indicates that driveway sight distance may be insufficient, the applicant is required to submit vertical and horizontal information prepared by a registered professional engineer to the City Engineer that verifies adequate sight distance is available for the proposed driveway location. The determination of sufficiency is at the sole discretion of the City Engineer.

1. It is the intent of the UDC, along with the City's adopted Technical Manuals, to define certain minimum requirements for Public Facilities, including utilities, roadways, storm drainage, parks, and other facilities determined by the City Council as necessary to protect or promote the public health, safety, and welfare and to ensure the quality of life currently enjoyed by the citizens of Bee Cave.
2. It is the intent of this UDC that no Subdivision occurs unless, and until, it provides for the minimum levels of service required by the UDC.
3. The Subdivider must dedicate, construct or upgrade required Public Facilities to a capacity that meets Adequate Public Facilities standards (see Section 2.1.4).
 

1. For each category of Public Facilities, the City requires a minimum standard of infrastructure based upon historic studies and construction projects of the City and other cities, which the City may publish and update from time to time in its Technical Manuals (see Section 1.1.16).
2. The minimum standards reflect the minimum Public Facilities required to protect or promote the public health, safety, and welfare and to ensure the quality of life currently enjoyed by the citizens of Bee Cave.
3. All Private Facilities must be designed to Public Facilities standards.
 

1. Within this Section 2.5, the term "Subdivision" has the meaning of both Subdivision and development, and the term "Subdivider" can refer to a Subdivider, Developer, Property Owner, or applicant. If any question of interpretation arises, the City will define a term as it is defined in the UDC.
2. These standards apply to any development listed in subsection 2.1.2.C, Requirement to Plat and Section 2.1.6, Platting in Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ).

Rough proportionality and fair share policy statement.

A. The City requires that each Subdivision contribute a fair and proportional share of the costs of providing Adequate Public Facilities, consistent with TLGC Section 212.904.
B. The City finds a direct correlation between increased demand on Public Facilities created by new a Subdivision and the City's requirements to dedicate public right-of-way and easements, and to construct a fair and proportional share of Public Facilities.
C. A fair and proportional share is the Subdivider's portion of the costs of Public Facilities as determined by the City Engineer in conformance with State Law, which may be satisfied through dedication of public right-of-way or easements, the payment of fees, or payment of construction costs.
D. The intent of this Section 2.5 is to provide standards for construction and dedication of Public Facilities that are roughly proportional to the nature and extent of the impacts created by the proposed Subdivision on Public Facilities, including roadway, storm drainage, or parks systems.
E. For appeals to the requirements of this Section 2.5, see Section 2.6.2 Subdivision Proportionality Appeal for procedures.

Adequate public facilities.

A. Services required. Land proposed for Subdivision in the City and in the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) must provide Adequate Public Facilities, including water facilities, wastewater facilities, roadway and pedestrian facilities, drainage facilities, and park and open space facilities.
B. Adequate public facilities not exclusive to city-owned facilities. The term "Adequate Public Facilities" may refer to any Public or Private Facility, which may be owned by the City or another public or private entity, so long as the facility is designed, constructed, and maintained to the standards of the UDC and the City's Technical Manuals.
C. Approval timing. The City will not approve a Subdivision unless the Subdivider provides adequate public facilities.

Conformance to plans and codes.

A. Design and construction of Public Facilities must conform to the standards, criteria, and requirements of the following, as they may from time to time be amended by those responsible for their promulgation.

2. Figure 2.5.5-1: Lot Types is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to represent examples of conforming lots under this UDC.

1. Through Lots and Reverse Corner Lots are prohibited except where essential to provide separation of residential development from traffic arteries or to overcome specific disadvantages of topography and orientation.
2. Through Lots require front setbacks on both frontages established in accordance with the underlying Zoning Regulations.
3. Proposed Through Lots meeting the criteria of this subsection 2.5.5.E may be approved by waiver (see Section 2.6, Subdivision Relief Procedures).
4. Flag Lots are prohibited.

1.Any land that, in its natural state, is subject to a 100-year flood (i.e. base flood) or which cannot be properly drained shall not be subdivided, re-subdivided or developed until the Subdivider demonstrates that the construction of specific site drainage improvements will yield a usable building site per the minimum lot size standards of the zoning district, i.e., Flood Study and FEMA CLOMR (Conditional Letter of Map Revision) and in conformance with Article 7 Stormwater Management.

2. If, after the completion of site drainage improvements, the Subdivision will yield a usable building site, as required in subsection 2.5.5.G.1, the Planning and Zoning Commission may approve a Subdivision Plat in conformance with all requirements of this Article 2. However, occupancy of a building is prohibited until the specific site drainage improvements have been planned, construction completed, and a LOMR (Letter of Map Revision) issued by FEMA.

1. The Planning Director may approve variances to the standards in this subsection 2.5.5 for lots intended to function under common property ownership if the lots are dedicated on a Final Plat for the use, ownership, and management of a Property Owners' or Homeowners' Association as described in subsection 2.5.7.
2. Condominium development, on a legal lot of record, may divide property in a manner consistent with the UDC, subsection 2.5.7, Property Owners' Associations, and Texas Property Code Chapter 82.

See § 2.5.5: Lots for complete, detailed information.

1. Block length. The length of a block is the distance from outside property corner to outside property corner, measured along the property line of the Block Face:

(i) Of greatest dimension; or
(ii) On which the greatest number of lots face.
 

2. Block width. The width of a block is the distance from outside property corner to outside property corner measured along the property line of the Block Face:

(i) Of least dimension; or
(ii) On which the fewest number of lots face.
 

3. Block measurement factors. the length, width, and shapes of blocks shall be determined with due regard to:

(i) Provision of adequate building sites suitable to the special needs of the type of use contemplated;
(ii) Zoning requirements as to lot sizes and dimensions;
(iii) Needs for convenient access, circulation, control and safety of vehicle and pedestrian traffic;

(ii) If residential lots back up to a commercial use, drainage area, or to an Arterial roadway, then there is no restriction on the block length or the maximum number of lots, subject to the Subdivision meeting the requirements of subsection 2.5.10, Access Management.

(1) If the residential lots back up to a commercial use, the Subdivision must provide at least one (1) pedestrian walkway to connect the commercial lots to the residential lots, unless the City Engineer determines a connection is impractical. The walkway may be gated to prevent two-way access.
(2) Where residential development faces both sides of a street, the required block length and restriction on the number of lots along the block applies to the opposite side of the residential street, including stubbed-out streets.
 

5. In cases where physical barriers, adjacent development, or property ownership, including dedication, ownership, and management by a Property Owners' or Homeowners' Association (see subsection 2.5.7, Property Owners' Associations) creates conditions justifying one or more variances to the standards of this subsection 2.5.6, the Planning Director may administratively approve a waiver to meet existing conditions, having due regard for connecting streets, circulation of traffic, and public safety.

See § 2.5.6: Blocks for complete, detailed information.

1. Promote the mobility, health, safety, and welfare of residents, property owners, and visitors to the City and to implement objectives and strategies of the Comprehensive Plan.
2. Improve the safety of walking by providing separation from motorized transportation and improving travel surfaces for pedestrians.

1. Sidewalks must be constructed for both sides of all streets within a Subdivision.
2. Sidewalks must be constructed along all lots adjoining public or private streets, along Arterial streets where lots do not adjoin the street, across power line easements, and in other areas where pedestrian walkways are necessary.
3. Routing to clear poles, trees or other obstacles is subject to City Engineer approval.
4. The Subdivision Construction Plans must show the location of all proposed sidewalks and state at what stage of the project they will be constructed.
5. Sidewalks will be installed abutting the Public Right-of-Way line unless the City Engineer approves an alternate location in writing.
6. Public sidewalks constructed on private property (i.e., those that meander from the Public Right-of-Way by design or necessity) must have access through a pedestrian access easement recorded with the Final Plat.
7. At least five (5) feet of grass or other permeable ground is provided between the roadway and sidewalk, unless the City Engineer determines this is not feasible through a written determination.
8. Sidewalk construction in front of lots may be delayed until the development of those lots, but in locations not adjacent to lots such as across bridges and culverts or open space lots, the sidewalk must be constructed with the other improvements to the Subdivision.
9. All sidewalks shall conform to Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and barrier-free ramps must be provided wherever a sidewalk intersects a public or private street or commercial driveway.

See § 2.5.8: Sidewalks for complete, detailed information.

(ii) Roads are privately owned and maintained pursuant to Section 2.5.7;
(iii) The method to be used to ensure City and emergency access into the subdivision shall be approved by applicable emergency services district. If the association fails to maintain reliable access as required herein, the City may enter the subdivision and remove any gate or device which is a barrier to access at the sole expense of the association. The association documents shall contain provisions in conformity with this Section which may not be amended without the written consent of the City Council. Any private street which has an access control gate or cross arm must have a minimum uninterrupted pavement width of twenty-two feet (22') at the location of the gate or access control device, both ingress point and egress point, regardless of the type of device used. If an overhead, or lift-up, barrier is used, it must be a minimum of fourteen feet (14') in height above the road surface, and this clearance height shall be extended for a minimum distance of fifty feet (50') in front of and behind the location of the device. All gates and cross arms must be of a breakaway design. A minimum vehicle stacking distance of one hundred feet (100') shall be provided from the right-of-way line of the public road from which the private street subdivision is accessed to the first vehicle stopping point, which is usually an access request keypad or telephone or a guard's window. Adequate distance shall be provided between the access request point(s) and the entry barrier, or gate, to accommodate a vehicle turnaround as described below.
(iv) A paved turnaround space must be located in front of any restricted access entrance barrier, between the access request device and the barrier or gate, to allow vehicles that are denied access to safely exit onto public streets without having to back up, particularly into the public street upon which the entrance is located. The design and geometry of such turnaround shall be of such pavement width and having such inside turning radius that it will accommodate smooth, single-motion U-turn movements by the following types of vehicles:

(1) Larger passenger vehicles, such as vans and pickup trucks;
(2) Passenger vehicles with short trailers up to twenty-four feet (24') in length, such as small flatbed, camping or box-type trailers; and
(3) The types of service and utility trucks that typically visit or make deliveries to neighborhoods that are similar to the proposed private street development, such as utility service vehicles, postal and delivery trucks, and two- to three-axle flatbed or box-type trucks used by contractors and moving companies.

3. All Subdivisions must provide for streets and sidewalks to serve the Subdivision in accordance with requirements included or referenced in this Section 2.5.

500+	1 + 0.7 per 100 lots

2. Access must be to a Collector Street or larger facility.
3. Access points will be calculated by the total number of lots shown on the Preliminary Plat.
4. The Planning and Zoning Commission may require additional access points if the configuration, number of lots, or other consideration creates the need for additional access.
5. In case of a conflict between this subsection 2.5.9.E and the adopted Fire Code, the most restrictive standard applies.

1. Streets will be named to provide continuity with existing streets. Names of new streets must comply with Article 16.05 of the Code of Ordinances.
2. Street signs will be furnished and installed by the Subdivider for all intersections within or abutting the Subdivision.

3. Alley right-of-way width and design. Minimum alley right-of-way width and design will conform with the City's Technical Manuals.
4. Intersections at right angles. Alleys shall intersect streets at right angles or radially to curved streets.
5. Intersections at arterial streets prohibited. Alleys shall not intersect Arterial Streets.
6. Dead-end alleys. The Subdivider must construct alleys with adequate turnaround facilities meeting the standards in subsection 2.5.9.D.5.
7. Access. If an alley is the sole point of access to a particular lot, the alley must meet minimum fire access requirements.
8. Drainage conveyance. If the surface or subsurface area under an alley is to be utilized for the conveyance of drainage from multiple lots, the Subdivider must design and install proper drainage structures and place them within drainage easements.

1. General dedication requirements.

(i) Travis County right-of-way.

(1) Per agreement between Travis County and the City of Bee Cave, all new developments in the ETJ must dedicate public right-of-way pursuant to the Travis County Transportation Plan or Bee Cave's Thoroughfare Plan.
(2) If there is a difference in the width required in the Travis County Plan and the Bee Cave Plan, the width of the dedication must meet the wider requirement.

(ii) Right-of-way alignment. The required alignment of the public right-of-way is determined with respect to property boundaries, safety, design, topography, and traffic management consideration.

(1) Principles of efficient traffic management will be applied in accordance with the City's goals and objectives as expressed in the current Comprehensive Plan, including but not limited to the Thoroughfare Plan.
(2) The appropriate alignment of any public right-of-way will be determined by examining the property and topographical conditions along the entire length of the street.
(3) In order to provide adequate information to establish appropriate public right-of-way alignment, the Subdivider must provide a survey showing property and topographical information for a minimum distance of two hundred (200) feet in every direction that the street extends from the property.
 

2. New streets. The Subdivider will provide streets where there is not an existing street, roadway, or passage.

(i) The City's adopted Technical Manuals will determine the design of internal streets.
(ii) Perimeter streets.

(1) When a Subdivision develops that abuts an existing or planned Arterial Street or Collector Street, the Subdivider must dedicate enough public right-of-way within the Subdivision to accommodate the future build-out of the Arterial or Collector Street.
(2) The Subdivider must construct their proportional share of the abutting street and its appurtenances (such as curbs and gutters, sidewalks, barrier-free ramps, street trees, etc.) to the City's standards for the applicable street type (see subsection 2.4.4, Improvement Agreements and Fiscal Security).
(3) The Subdivider's proportional share of the street construction is determined by the City Engineer and is roughly proportional to the impact the Subdivision causes on the street system (see subsection 2.5.2, Rough Proportionality and Fair Share Policy Statement).
(4) If the Subdivider disagrees with the City Engineer's determination of rough proportionality, then the Subdivider may file a Subdivision Proportionality Appeal (see subsection 2.6.2, Subdivision Proportionality Appeal).
 

3. Existing streets. If the existing geometric configuration of a street does not accommodate the standards of the Technical Manual, the City may require the dedication of additional public right-of-way to address safety, design, topography, and traffic management considerations.

(i) Adjacent to a platted subdivision.

(1) The right-of-way dedication is based on the distance between the final platted Subdivision boundary and the centerline of the street.
(2) Reasonable geometric adjustments will be made to accommodate safety, design, topography, and traffic management considerations.

(ii) Along a right-of-way described by a metes and bounds or a general written description.

(1) The right-of-way dedication is based on the geometric centerline of the right-of-way as described.
(2) Reasonable geometric adjustments will be made to accommodate safety, design, topography, and traffic management considerations.
(3) All existing right-of-way dedications within the Subdivision must be converted from "separate instrument" to a platted right-of-way on the Final Plat.

(iii) Along a prescriptive right-of-way.

(1) The right-of-way dedication is based on the apparent centerline of the existing pavement or of the travel way if unpaved.
(2) Reasonable geometric adjustments will be made to accommodate safety, design, topography, and traffic management considerations.
(3) The Subdivider must indicate on the Preliminary Plat and, if required, on the Final Plat any property lines and features that identify the prescriptive right-of-way. Features may include fences, borrow ditches, utility lines, drainage improvements, limits of plowed fields, etc.
(4) All existing prescriptive right-of-way dedications within the Subdivision must be converted from prescriptive to a platted right-of-way on the Final Plat.
 

4. Private street.

(i) A Subdivider may receive approval of one (1) or more private streets if the following conditions are met:

(1) The street is not shown on the City's Thoroughfare Plan and is not or will not serve as the primary route between two (2) or more Subdivisions or developments and an existing or future public street;
(2) The proposed street is built to City Standards or with modifications approved by the City Engineer;
(3) The private street is dedicated on a Final Plat as a single and separate lot labelled as "Private Street" and deed is granted to a Property Owners' Association for ownership and maintenance.

(ii) The Planning and Zoning Commission may deny a Final Plat on the basis of requested private streets or approve the Final Plat with the condition that streets be dedicated to the City.
