BELTON â A new subdivision straddling the Bell County and Temple line is now cleared for further construction.
The Landing at Heritage Oaks â located south of Temple both inside and outside city limits â was unanimously approved by the Bell County Commissioners Court for its final plat Monday in a 5-0 decision. The 28-lot subdivision is 21.33 acres and will consist of single family homes, with six lots wholly or partially in Temple city limits.
The subdivision is on the southern side of FM 93, half a mile to the east of Taylorâs Valley Baptist Church, 2497 W. FM 93.
Precinct 1 Commissioner Russell Schneider, who represents a portion of the subdivision, voiced concern along with other commissioners about the siteâs drainage.
BELTON â After nearly 20 years since its creation, the Belton Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone is now up for renewal with a proposed $87.4 million in projects over the next two decades.
The Bell County Commissioners Court and Belton city officials met during a workshop Monday to discuss the renewal of the zone, which helps fund projects in and around the city.
Belton officials came to the county to encourage commissioners to continue being a member of the zone for its renewal.
Belton Mayor Wayne Carpenter said the reinvestment zone has had a very positive impact on the city and its businesses.
Carpenter said as the city expands further to the south, the expansion of the reinvestment zone will be very valuable.
The Bell County Commissioners Court said Monday that it would have seven vaccination sites this week.
These sites will include four dynamic sites â vaccine locations targeted at helping underserved and at risk populations â on top of three static sites. The static sites are located at Baylor Scott & White, Seton Medical Center and AdventHealth.
