Summary:
This is a request by Clayton Properties Group II Inc., d/b/a Oakwood Homes for approval of a new service plan which would authorize four additional "base" metropolitan districts to be used for remaining future development phases of the Oakwood portion of the Banning Lewis Ranch development. These new districts would be deployed in the area east of Banning Lewis Parkway.

This item was introduced at a City Council Work Session on August 13, 2018.
