Staff explained that the property is zoned B-1 (Business) and that the overlay district requires development-plan approval for mixed-use businesses; the personal-service use (massage day spa) is listed as a permitted use under B-1 but the overlay triggers the development-plan review. Staff also noted that the structure has been restored and that the proposed sign needs only minor adjustment to meet overlay standards.

Property owner Randall Paulus described restoring the two-story house and said the business would occupy parlors on the first floor while upstairs would remain residential. “We just, got a little exuberant with the sign,” Paulus said; he and staff agreed the sign’s supporting legs would be shortened to meet the overlay requirements.

Operator Tina Nguyen, a licensed massage therapist, said she already holds required state licenses and will provide massage and skin-care services. The applicants proposed business hours of about 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.; staff and commissioners noted there is on-site driveway parking and street parking nearby for overflow.

Commissioner Dean moved to recommend approval of the development plan application submitted for the property at 612 East Washington; Commissioner Caroline seconded. The motion carried by voice vote with no opposition recorded. Staff said the item will move to the City Council for final action, which staff indicated is scheduled for the 14th.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Planning and Zoning - 6.26.2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of a development plan for a massage day spa at 612 East Washington; the property is in a B-1 business zone within an overlay district that requires development-plan review.

City staff summarized that the parcel had been annexed into the city in January and therefore received an automatic AO zoning designation on annexation; the applicant requested M-1 to align the parcel with the city’s industrial park and the proposed use. Staff said the site plan and building code review will be handled by the building official if the zoning change is approved and that industrial districts typically carry fewer exterior site landscaping requirements.

Applicant Nicholas Harmon, who identified himself as owner of Trailers of Texas, described the business as a dealer of new and used tank trailers (the large trailers used to transport fuel and similar products). Harmon said most recently he typically keeps 10–15 trailers on site at a time, that the trailers are washed before arrival so no hazardous materials are stored on the lot, and that he plans to operate from an existing building with a gravel yard. Harmon said the business currently has three employees and that he expects to collect inventory and sales tax as a local revenue source.

Harmon described planned business hours of roughly 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and noted that state dealer rules require dealers to be open a minimum of four consecutive hours per day. On-site circulation could be improved, Harmon said, but the existing drive and gravel surface are serviceable for his equipment.

Commissioner Dehen moved to approve the zoning change application submitted by Don Parkinson (application filed on behalf of the property owner) to change the property from AO to M-1; Commissioner Todd seconded. The motion carried by voice vote with no opposition recorded.

Staff indicated the applicant will work with the building official on code and permitting requirements now that the property is in city limits.","The Planning Commission approved a zoning change from Agricultural Open Space to M-1 Light Industrial for 9314 Interstate Drive to allow Trailers of Texas to operate a vehicle-sales site; the applicant said the business will use existing buildings, keep limited inventory on-site and employ three people initially.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6183934,"Planning commission approves replat to split 71-acre tract along State Highway 6",762,73000,835000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5093463-32c056c3c624ea1236f8310d15a6fb29&start=73&end=835","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5093463-32c056c3c624ea1236f8310d15a6fb29/thumbnail_73000.jpg","/articles/6183934/Texas/Planning-commission-approves-replat-to-split-71-acre-tract-along-State-Highway-6","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6183934-508dab343935d589d2aefe9a50df4e11/orig.mp4?Expires=1773653610&Signature=gu0TVcWhXIvy-Ew-AJZdkIRqLbNczb-DEllNUyKpqpQle60p92oAuIOaH4Qd5tGILkENIbsFxLFiXZ5JeDxjo3ekuZwxT-J2EVzNKi8aWOmnNYuXVnBK-llvfrIO6EwcJnCOeZKsa~XBFqyvRx1pkBlVMvZniHigthFrztE7UJ27jzQ6hK9v9jpeezYvepBzasNrI31-IewFJDo6P9~BXyxvU3LtFz5fSarlFTNwSYrY7JA3PLQJ1sBH7tZFZNOeckzv2in6UYdIJGoKFJSsPAhexQjGIrIXZ0hKqOlEV3HzhFoyG0t1rmdnYnddy~xi9sTRLlBnCNHkucEy6pgSKQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Navasota Planning Commission approved a replat to divide a 71.464-acre parcel along State Highway 6 into two 35.83-acre lots, commissioners said at the meeting.

City planning staff said the minor replat was reviewed against applicable subdivision regulations and that all public-notice requirements were completed, including mailing 110 letters to property owners within 500 feet. Staff recommended approval.

Faber McMullen, identified in staff remarks as one of the property owners, told the commission the division is for family estate planning and not to change land use. “Nothing changes with the property; it's all still in Ag,” McMullen said, adding that he and co-owner Nancy Perry bought the land about 16–17 years ago and want separate parcels so their children “don't have to fool with it later.” McMullen also said he sold four acres to the City of Navasota for a new fire station in the past.

Staff noted the property’s primary zoning is Agricultural Open Space (AO) and that the frontage along Highway 6 is zoned B-2; the replat does not change those zone classifications and does not authorize development. Multiple speakers reiterated that the application simply divides ownership and that any future change of use would require a separate rezoning or application process.

Commissioner Karen (last name not specified) moved to approve the replat application submitted by M and P Adventures LLC; the motion was seconded by Commissioner Debbie (last name not specified). The commission carried the motion by voice vote with no recorded opposition.

The replat record will remain on file with the city; staff did not report any immediate development plans tied to the new lot boundaries.","The Navasota Planning Commission approved a replat to divide a roughly 71.464-acre parcel along State Highway 6 into two equal 35.83-acre lots; the property remains zoned Agricultural Open Space with B-2 frontage and there are no immediate development plans, owners and staff said.","actionData","errors"]
