Latest version.
  • (a)

    The extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of Denton is classified into two (2) divisions as indicated on the map on file in the department which is made a part hereof for all purposes. Division 1 is that area located within the regulatory line reflected on the map referenced above. Division 2 is that area on the map located outside the regulatory line surrounding Division 1.

    (1)

    All of the provisions of this chapter governing subdivision and development standards for subdivisions within the city shall apply to all subdivisions and developments within Division 1.

    (2)

    The subdivision and development standards of the County of Denton, as such standards exist today or as they may hereafter be amended, shall apply to all subdivisions and developments within Division 2. The approval of plats by the city for subdivisions and developments in the extraterritorial jurisdiction comprising Division 2 is not required and such subdivisions and developments must comply only with development or plat requirements of Denton County and state law.

    (b)

    The department is directed to consider amendments to the regulatory line map whenever the certificate of public convenience and necessity for water and wastewater services is amended by the state, the Greater Denton Planning Area as defined in the Denton Development Plan as revised, or when directed by the planning and zoning commission and city council. Any amendments shall not be effective until the revised regulatory line map is approved by the city council.
