Commission approves rezoning for drive-through coffee at 371 Loop 567 near Neddy Backus Elementary
Loading...
Summary
The commission rezoned 1.173 acres at 371 Loop 567 from Interim Holding to Light Commercial to allow a drive-through coffee shop; staff reported no written objections and applicants described ingress and stacking plans.
The Granbury Planning and Zoning Commission on Nov. 10 approved changing the zoning of 371 Loop 567 from Interim Holding to Light Commercial to permit a drive-through coffee shop on the 1.173-acre parcel.
City planning staff (Cody) told the commission the site fronts Neddy Backus Elementary, ties into city sewer and is consistent with the city's future land use designation for retail. Staff notified nearby property owners and published the required notice in the Hood County News; staff reported zero letters for or against the request (SEG 230-256).
The applicant listed on the agenda as Susan Sledge addressed the commission, describing the property's family history and saying the plan is a drive-through-only configuration with ingress and egress on Baptist Drive and on-site stacking to manage vehicle queues. Commissioners asked about parking and walk-up access; staff and the applicant said the design anticipates stacking and that available parking is limited (SEG 268-324).
Commissioner Hallman moved to approve the rezoning "as presented" and a colleague seconded. The chair called the motion carried; the transcript records approval by voice vote and does not report a roll-call tally (SEG 328-339).
Staff will proceed with plat review and development permitting required for the site. The commission did not receive written opposition during the notification period.
