Key outcomes from the Oct. 21 San Antonio Zoning Commission meeting:

- Combined hearing approvals: Commissioners approved six combined hearing items (8, 12, 14, 15, 16 and 18) in a single motion and will forward those recommended rezonings to City Council within six months. The motion to approve the combined items was made by Commissioner Ken Huey and carried on a roll-call vote.

- Item 17 (402 Earl Street): Approved with a specific-use designation for a cabinet/carpentry shop (C3-S) and a condition limiting hours of operation to 7 a.m.–7 p.m., Monday–Saturday (motion by Commissioner Danny Kellum; second by Commissioner John Whitsett).

- Item 20 (5526 & 530 W. Woodlawn Avenue): Applicant amended its request from C2 to C1 during the hearing; the commission approved the request as amended (motion by Commissioner Danny Kellum; second by Commissioner Pete Rodriguez). Staff had recommended denial of C2 because the parcel sits within a primarily residential block face; Alta Vista Neighborhood Association recorded that it would not object to C1.

- Continuances: The commission continued several items to allow more time for review and neighborhood coordination — items 9, 21 and 22 were continued to Nov. 4, 2025 (motion and vote recorded); item 13 was continued to Nov. 18, 2025 (motion by Commissioner George Hinojosa; second by Commissioner Pete Rodriguez).

- Administrative actions: Commissioners elected Commissioner Danny Kellum as pro tem for the remainder of the term (by acclamation), approved the 2026 Zoning Commission meeting calendar with the typical January first meeting omitted, and approved the minutes as submitted with one abstention.

Votes and procedural notes are summarized below by agenda item. Items will be forwarded to City Council where required for final action; continuances will return to the commission on the dates noted.
