County to schedule public hearing on downtown storefront and first-floor residential text update after city feedback
Summary
Staff reported that the city has completed two readings of a downtown text update for storefront and first-floor residential uses; the county has held off pending written issues from the fiscal court and plans a November public hearing after coordinating with city and county attorneys.
Planning staff told the commission that the City has completed two readings of proposed text changes affecting downtown storefronts and first-floor residential uses, but the county has paused its action pending written issues raised by the fiscal court.
Staff said the magistrate raised concerns — notably how the proposed text treats grandfathered properties — and asked the city to outline its issues in writing so the county planning office can respond. The county attorney and city attorney will be asked to review the revised draft before staff places the matter on each body’s agenda. Staff said it will schedule a public hearing at the November planning commission meeting and will circulate the fiscal court’s written comments to commission members in advance.
No formal vote was taken; staff said it will coordinate with city and county legal counsel and present the final language and any clarifications before the public hearing.
