City Council approves Granger Way development and abandonment of Knapp Road

In a recent Planning and Zoning Meeting held on April 3, 2025, the Kerrville City Council took significant steps toward improving local infrastructure by approving the construction of a new road, Granger Way. This new road will replace the abandoned Knapp Road, which was officially closed last year. The decision aims to enhance access for adjacent property owners and improve connectivity in the area.

Granger Way will connect Teal Court to the river, providing a vital link to the surrounding neighborhoods. The council's approval of the new road comes after a thorough review of the subdivision code, ensuring that all necessary regulations are met. The transition from Knapp Road to Granger Way is part of a broader effort to streamline access and improve safety for residents.

During the meeting, city officials discussed the need for proper documentation regarding the abandonment of Knapp Road, referencing two ordinances that outline the conditions for this change. The council emphasized the importance of recording these ordinances in the county's deeds office to maintain clear public records.

The motion to approve the new road was met with unanimous support from council members, reflecting a shared commitment to enhancing community infrastructure. As the city moves forward with this project, residents can expect improved access and connectivity, which are essential for fostering a vibrant and accessible community.

This decision marks a positive step toward addressing local transportation needs and aligns with the city’s ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life for its residents. The council will continue to work on the necessary steps to ensure the successful implementation of Granger Way.
