Council approves rezoning and right-of-way release for West Adams Avenue development
Summary
The council granted a rezoning with a binding site-plan for approximately 8.73 acres on West Adams Avenue and authorized the release of 1.343 acres of right-of-way, both actions cleared on second and final reading and approved 5-0.
The Temple City Council approved a rezoning and a release of right-of-way that staff said will enable development on West Adams Avenue.
On second and final reading the council adopted an ordinance rezoning about 8.73 acres at 11717 and 11535 West Adams Avenue from agricultural to planned development general retail, including a binding site plan. The council also approved, on second and final reading, releasing a 1.343-acre right-of-way easement subject to public-utility and drainage easements involving Hog Pin Creek Road and part of South Pea Ridge Road in the Baldwin Robertson survey, Bell County.
Both items were part of a read-in of multiple land-use items that had been delayed at a prior meeting; staff said the requests align with the city's development plans for the corridors. No members of the public registered opposition on the record for these items during the Aug. 21 public hearing.
Council Member Pilkington made the motion to approve the rezoning; Mayor Pro Tem Walker seconded. The rezoning passed 5-0. The motion to release the right-of-way was moved and seconded and also passed 5-0.
What happens next: With the rezoning and easement release approved, the applicant may proceed with site work and permitting consistent with the binding site plan and utility/drainage easement requirements. Any building permits, subdivision recordings or additional engineering approvals required by staff will follow the usual permitting process.
