HAYS COUNTY DEVELOPMENT
A massive subdivision is coming to the outskirts of town, and 20% of the acreage will be open space. Marcus Pacheco, Hays County Development Services director, said the Mason Subdivision is a proposed development consisting of approximately 886 single family residential lots and would be located on approximately 306 acres on Centerpoint Road in Precinct 1. The property is conceptualized to have around 61 acres of open space, 40 acres of which will be landscape irrigated. There will be approximately 4 miles of nature trails. The Hays County Commissioners Court approved the Mason Subdivision unanimously.
“There is a dedication of 140 feet of right away that will be part of this development that is for future connection of an extension from Posey Road to Centerpoint Road,” Pacheco said. “There was a Traffic Impact Analysis that was conducted that was reviewed by our outside consultant, and in that Traffic Impact Analysis there were some mitigation modifications requested such as additional traffic lanes on Centerpoint Road just for designated turning lanes… in both directions, and in the future, the right of way being wide enough to possibly accommodate any mitigation efforts such as roundabouts.”
