In a recent government meeting, officials discussed a request to rezone approximately 0.2066 acres of land located at 129 East Johnson Street. The property, currently zoned for commercial use, is situated at the intersection of North Houston and East Johnson, north of North Lamar Avenue. The applicant is seeking to change the zoning to Single Family Five Residential to facilitate the construction of a single-family home.

The proposal aligns with the surrounding area, where adjacent properties to the west have already been developed for residential purposes. It was noted that these developments likely occurred during the time of the infill overlay, raising questions about how the current zoning classification was overlooked.

City staff highlighted that the rezoning request not only complies with the existing residential development to the south but also adheres to the future land use plan, which designates the area for neighborhood use. Staff recommended approval of the request, emphasizing that single-family homes are appropriate for this designation. The meeting concluded with staff available to address any further inquiries regarding the proposal.
