Council approves rezoning and final plat for 11.398‑acre San Jose Street development
Summary
Council adopted an ordinance rezoning an 11.398‑acre tract along San Jose Street from industrial/commercial to single‑family residential and approved a final plat to allow an anticipated single‑family subdivision by a local homebuilder.
The Alice City Council adopted an ordinance rezoning an 11.398‑acre tract on San Jose Street from industrial/commercial to single‑family residential and approved the final plat that subdivides the property into residential lots.
City staff said the tract — described in deed and map records cited by staff — was purchased by a local homebuilder and that the applicant (identified in the record as Jim Dean Homes) seeks to develop single‑family lots. Planning and Zoning considered the rezoning and the plat at its July meeting and recommended approval; the council opened a public hearing, received no public comment and approved both the rezoning ordinance and the final plat.
Why it matters: The item clears the way for the developer to proceed with infrastructure work and lot sales once applicable permits and approvals are completed; staff noted the plat lots meet the city’s 5,000‑square‑foot minimum lot size for the area. Councilmembers asked staff to follow standard review steps such as floodplain review and standard utility and street construction inspections during permitting.
Actions taken - Ordinance adopting rezoning of the 11.398‑acre tract: motion made and carried; no vote tally recorded in the oral record. The council closed the public hearing and adopted the ordinance. - Final plat acceptance for the same tract: motion made and carried; planning and zoning previously approved the plat.
Provenance: staff presentation, planning and zoning recommendation, public hearing record and council votes recorded on the council floor.
