Commission denies rezoning at 11006 Bandera Road over residential compatibility concerns
Summary
The commission denied a request to rezone a mixed residential/commercial property at 11006 Bandera Road to allow office/warehouse flex space, citing likely adverse impacts on nearby residences and a nearby school.
The San Antonio Zoning Commission voted to deny a rezoning request at 11006 Bandera Road that would have converted property zoned C2NA and R-6 to C1CD with a conditional use for office/warehouse flex space.
Senior zoning planner Eduardo Gomez told the commission staff had found likely adverse impacts to neighboring single‑family homes and proximity to the Anne Frank Inspired Academy. Staff concluded the proposed use could permit industrial encroachment along a mixed-use corridor and recommended denial.
Applicant Al Carroll of Tri Tech Engineering, representing Bridal Development, said potential tenants would include school‑support uses such as gymnastics or HVAC training and noted community support letters from an adjacent equipment company. Commissioners questioned access and the compatibility of adding office/warehouse uses next to existing residences. Chair Rob Sipes moved for denial; Commissioner Ortiz seconded. The motion passed on a roll‑call vote.
The denial is a recommendation; City Council will consider the matter if appealed or refiled.
