BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The applicant is requesting a zoning change on 76.613 acres north of E. McLeroy and west of F.M.-156. The City’s Ultimate Land Use Plan shows the entire area as Community Commercial (CC). Existing land use is Agricultural (Ag). Existing zoning is comprised of approximately 51.6 ac. of Community Commercial (CC) located along the frontage of F.M-156, E. McLeroy and Rough Rider Drive and approximately 25.1 ac. of Multi-Family (MF1) located to the rear of the Community Commercial zoning.

 

Proposed Zoning

The proposed zoning is broken into four tracts as follows:

 

  • Tract A – Community Commercial (11.025 ac.) Located south of Western Center Blvd. extension
  • Tract B – Community Commercial (9.283 ac.) Located north of Western Center Blvd. extension
  • Tract C – Multi-Family (MF2, 44.993 ac.) Located north of Western Center Blvd. extension and east of Lavonne Lane.
  • Tract D - Light Industrial (7.311 ac.). Located north of E. McLeroy and west of Lavonne Lane.
