Analysis
In May of 2018, the City of Venus approached Grand Prairie planning staff regarding the transfer/release of a portion of Grand Prairie's ETJ between US Hwy 287 and US Hwy 67 in Johnson County. The portion of ETJ is contiguous with developments currently under construction or planned within the City of Venus and its ETJ. The area proposed for transferral to City of Venus is within the Venus ISD and sits near the projected alignment for future southern phases of SH 360. The Future Land Use map designates the area as a mixture of Single-Family Residential, Open Space/Flood Plain, Industrial, and Commercial. The area is near to but does not have direct frontage on Hwy 67 or Hwy 287.
Based on CCDC comment in July 2018, the City of Venus has adjusted the proposal to include only single-family lots currently proposed for development which the City of Venus will serve, leaving the projected SH 360 corridor within the Grand Prairie ETJ.
