Council approves multiple site plans and a tattoo-studio permit; MTG Engineers offers support
Summary
Council unanimously approved site-plan amendments for Brookwood Acres and Westside Church of Christ and granted a specific-use permit for an additional tattoo studio at 1002 Wood Street; MTG Engineers’ David Williams spoke in support of the projects.
The Texarkana City Council on Sept. 9 approved several development- and zoning-related items after brief public hearings, including site-plan amendments for residential and church properties and a specific-use permit for a tattoo studio.
David Williams of MTG Engineers spoke on behalf of the owner and agent for two separate site-plan items. For Brookwood Acres (Lot 6, Block 1) listed at "210 and 212 Cheyenne Place," Williams said he was "here in support of the project and happy to answer any questions or concerns that anybody may have regarding the project." Council member Hart moved approval of the ordinance amending PD-99-14 for site-plan approval; Thompson seconded and the motion passed.
Williams later represented Westside Church of Christ for an approximate 5.643-acre tract (Thomas Price headright survey) at 524 Sowell Lane and asked the council to "follow the recommendation of P and Z and approve the site plan." Council moved and the ordinance passed unanimously.
The council also granted a specific-use permit (Ordinance No. 2024-100) to allow an additional tattooing use on Lots 7 and 8, Block 108 (agenda lists 'Trigs Edition') at 1002 Wood Street. Owner Brian Callaway and agent Joaquin Hernandez were present; the council approved the permit by recorded motion.
What happened next: planning staff will finalize permitting steps and issue related permits; councilors recorded unanimous approval for each zoning action at the Sept. 9 meeting.
Notes: the article uses the addresses and lot descriptions as printed in the meeting agenda and read into the record during the public hearings; some agenda text contains minor typographical inconsistencies (for example, spelling and lot descriptors) that were not changed in these summaries.
