Council approves zoning map amendment to add Weatherford College properties to college’s PD zoning
Summary
Weatherford College requested a zoning map amendment to fold several parcels into its existing planned‑development (PD) zoning to accommodate future campus plans; staff recommended approval and council approved the amendment after a public hearing with no speakers.
Weatherford — The council approved a zoning map amendment that adds multiple properties owned by Weatherford College into the college’s existing planned‑development (PD) zoning district.
Planning staff said the college has purchased several parcels — including properties at 205 and 207 East Park Avenue, along Martin Drive and portions of Texas Drive — and seeks to bring them into its PD designation to enable future campus uses. Staff noted no development permits are currently pending and that the zoning amendment simply consolidates the college’s property under the existing PD to allow future campus planning and permitted uses under the PD.
Public hearing and action: The council opened the required public hearing; no members of the public spoke. Staff recommended approval and the council voted to adopt the zoning map amendment. City staff noted Weatherford College will return with development or permit requests when the college has concrete plans to present.
Outcome: Zoning map amendment approved; the college will provide a status update to council in September about campus activities and long‑term plans.
