The original plat was approved on August 5, 2025, and expires August 5, 2026; the applicant seeks a one-year extension to allow recording closer to construction start. This case matters to developers as it demonstrates how subdivisions in this area manage approval timelines and construction phasing.
17-2026 — Commercial truck stop

18-2014 — Two (2) single-family residential lots and a shared access easement
This preliminary plat replats 2.56 acres to create two single-family residential lots with a shared access easement to Koeblen Road, a major thoroughfare. The City Council previously approved a variance on 6/2/2026 allowing Lots 1 and 2 access from the shared access easement.

This final plat subdivides an existing 2.56-acre residential lot into two single-family residential lots in San Jose Meadows subdivision. The replat was previously recommended for approval by the Planning Commission in May 2026 and meets all applicable city regulations. The project involves no zoning changes and is a standard residential subdivision creating two new buildable residential lots.
FY2027-2031 — other
This agenda item covers the City's five-year Capital Improvement Plan (FY2027-2031) including infrastructure projects such as parks, sports complex improvements, road expansions, detention pond work, and utility upgrades. Developers should monitor how these public improvements may affect infrastructure requirements, impact fees, and development coordination responsibilities in their projects throughout the planning period.
PL-2026-3-V — Multi-tenant illuminated ground sign for fuel station/convenience store
Applicant seeks a variance from the 36-foot maximum sign height limit in Sign District "A" to allow a 65-foot tall multi-tenant illuminated sign at a convenience store and fuel station. The property's location requires drivers to make an exit decision 3,740 feet before the entrance, making a 36-foot sign ineffective for directing highway traffic. Granting the variance would enable the facility to compete with comparable highway-oriented businesses on the same corridor while improving driver safety by ensuring visibility before the exit ramp.

PL-2026-1-V — Subdivision to create two residential lots with shared access/driveway to major thoroughfare (Koeblen Road)
Applicant seeks a variance to subdivide a 2.56-acre lot into two residential lots with minimum lot frontage of 149 feet (versus required 175 feet) and minimum lot area of 1.12 acres (versus required 3 acres), utilizing a 32-foot shared access easement to Koeblen Road. The variance permits residential access to a major thoroughfare that would otherwise violate code requirements, though the applicant argues special circumstances exist due to existing structures and the lot's subdivision configuration.
15-2025 — plat
This is a final plat approval for Arabella on the Prairie Section Nine, a 20.901-acre residential subdivision consisting of 81 lots in the Rosenberg ETJ.

The Planning Commission previously approved the preliminary plat and staff recommends approval to City Council.
17-2025 — Commercial use (restricted reserve)
This 71.05-acre final plat for Arcosa Rosenberg creates a restricted commercial use reserve in the Rosenberg city limits between Highway 90A and Muegge Road. The Planning Commission previously approved the preliminary plat and staff recommends approval of this final plat to City Council, so the development appears positioned to move forward without anticipated zoning obstacles.
PL-2026-2-V — Decorative mural installation on building wall
The applicant seeks a variance from UDC Section 1-374(2) to install an 840 square-foot mural (70% of wall area) on the north-facing wall of the building at 2717 FM 2218, exceeding the standard limit of 25% wall area or 300 square feet. The mural is intended to celebrate the City of Rosenberg and its founders, and the applicant argues the corner property's prominent visibility and large blank wall create special circumstances justifying the variance without detriment to public safety or orderly development.

The Final Plat of Brookewater Section Fourteen creates 21 single-family residential lots on 13.28 acres within the City of Rosenberg ETJ.

04-2025 — Single-family residential dwelling units (4 lots)

01-2025 — Wastewater treatment plant for the proposed Revera development

The plat was originally approved April 2, 2025, and set to expire April 1, 2026; the applicant seeks to extend approval to allow recording closer to the anticipated construction start date.

MSN Ventures requested variances to reduce building setbacks from 30 feet to 20 feet and parking setbacks from 15 feet to 10 feet (and other reduced amounts) for a proposed used car dealership.

24-1551 — plat
This is a final plat for a 751-lot residential subdivision (The Preserve at Rosenberg Section 3) on approximately 156.6 acres at the Zunker Road Tract. The development includes single-family lots in three typical sizes (45'x120', 50'x120', and 60'x120'), along with dedicated areas for detention, parks, landscaping, and infrastructure. Developers should track this project's phasing and infrastructure requirements as it progresses through final platting.
25-5318 — Sandpit development
Arcosa Stabilized & Recycling is platting a 71-acre tract for a proposed sandpit development south of US Highway 90A. The development requires a Major Thoroughfare Plan amendment to remove a designated future Collector Road running through the property.
44-2575 — plat
This case involves the replat of a 21.34-acre subdivision within Risers International Subdivision. The plat includes dedications of public streets, utility easements with specific aerial easement provisions, and drainage restrictions.

24-150 — plat

16-2025 — Commercial development including storage facility and retail
The applicants request a variance to reduce the required parking and paving setback from 15 feet to 10 feet along FM 2977 frontage, citing a prior 30-foot TxDOT right-of-way dedication that already constrains the site and a 10-foot landscape buffer that was established before the 15-foot requirement was introduced. Approval would allow development of a 10-acre commercial property (including storage and retail) without redesign; denial would require site plan modifications that affect building footprint, parking layout, and fire lane compliance.
PL-2025-2-V — Commercial development (FM 2977 Business Center)
A variance request for FM 2977 Business Center seeks to reduce the parking and paving setback from the required 15 feet to 10 feet from the street right-of-way adjacent to Minonite Road/FM 2977 to accommodate proposed commercial development. The 10-acre property in the City's ETJ is located west of Minonite Road and south of Koeblen Road, and recently received City Council approval for a final plat. This variance may be relevant if you are evaluating similar commercial properties in the Rosenberg area or considering development projects with parking setback constraints along major thoroughfares.
PL-2025-26 — Used car dealership with associated mechanic shop
MSN Ventures is requesting variances to reduce building and parking setbacks for a proposed used car dealership on a small commercially zoned corner lot with multiple frontages. The applicant seeks relief from setback requirements that would otherwise reduce usable space by 30-40% and prevent the property from being developed for its permitted commercial purpose. The Planning Commission will make a recommendation to City Council, which has final approval authority on the variance request.
20-2025 — plat
This is an extension request for the preliminary plat of Brookewater Section Fourteen, which was originally approved in August 2025 and expires in February 2026. The developer (Spur Brookewater Development GP, LLC) is requesting a one-time extension of approximately 90 days to submit the final plat, as construction sequencing delays have pushed the engineering and final plat development timeline. The 13.28-acre residential subdivision includes 24 lots across two blocks with required park land dedication and detention pond facilities.
