The Colleyville Planning and Zoning Commission took votes on a series of zoning and plat matters on Oct. 13, 2025. Key outcomes: a special use permit for a new restaurant’s on‑site alcohol sales, approvals for an accessory dwelling unit and EV charging stations, and plat approvals for two subdivisions were granted; an amendment to the Oak Alley PUD seeking removal of a 25‑foot landscape easement for one lot was denied (see separate article).

Meeting procedure and staff notes

Staff presented each case, summarized submissions and the notice responses, and conducted public hearings where required. For the restaurant SUP and the EV chargers staff reported no opposition; for the Oak Alley PUD amendment staff had provided commissioners with letters both for and against and had counted 16 in favor and 10 opposed in the broader notice area (the opposition percent was below the 20% threshold that would change council voting requirements). The accessory dwelling and plats drew no opposition and were presented as compliant with relevant code sections.

Who spoke on these items

Staff: Ben Bridal, Director of Community Development, presented multiple items including the restaurant SUP and the Oak Alley PUD amendment. Applicants and project representatives who spoke included an applicant team for the Oak Alley request (the Bridal family), and for the EV chargers: Eric John (Kimley‑Horn) and Mina Zackie (store manager, Walmart Neighborhood Market). Developers/representatives for plats included Paul Rosthern of Cali Custom Homes for Holt Farms.

Why this matters

These routine approvals will allow a new downtown restaurant to operate with on‑site alcohol sales, permit an accessory dwelling in an existing structure, install public EV chargers at a neighborhood market and advance two plats toward development. The one significant contested item — the Oak Alley easement amendment — was denied and underscores how negotiated buffers in PUDs can limit later changes to lot uses and trigger neighborhood opposition.
