Dear Mr. Menefee,
~~ 1~F1-r 3IsT
~ ,L~ -~S
Rusk Properties Company owns a 4,460 acre ranch near Kerrville known as
the Cypress Creek Ranch (formerly Whiskey Canyon Ranchj which we are
currently marketing. We have recommended to Rusk Properties Company
that to successfully market the property, the ranch would need to be
divided into parcels, versus trying to market the property as one tract.
We are proposing the ranch to be divided into approximately nine tracts
that would vary in size from 240E acres to 760E acres. Seven of these
tracts under the proposal would exceed 400 acres per parcel. The
property has been and currently is being utilized for agricultural
purposes aryl it is anticipated that the use will be continued. Access
to the tracts is proposed to be from existing entrances frcan state and
county roads and private roads within the ranch. A topography map of the
ranch indicating proposed tracts is attached along with a sheet indicating
the approximate sizes.
I understand tyre next-Kerr County Cbnttrissioners Court meeting will be on
May 31, 1988 and I would like to request to be placed on the agenda to
present this matter to the court and seek a variance from the existing
Kerr County Subdivision Regulations.
If I can answer any questions, or provide additional information prior to
the meeting, please contact ire.
Sincerely,
Mike Ba~znn
Partner
