Waco Council approves several rezonings, land‑use changes and large voluntary annexations
Summary
The council approved multiple ordinances: rezonings and land‑use changes (including a Steinbeck Road rezone to R3B/C2, a Robinson Drive rezoning to M2 industrial) and second readings authorizing voluntary annexation and PUD designations for large tracts including the Westlake/West Village PUD.
On a series of motions and recorded roll calls, the Waco City Council approved multiple planning and zoning ordinances presented by the planning director and the city attorney.
Items approved included: a land‑use change and rezoning at 7324 Steinbeck Road to permit medium‑density residential and community commercial uses; a land‑use designation change and rezoning for 2324 Robinson Drive from commercial to M2 light industrial; cleanup amendments to definitions for indoor amusement and amusement‑redemption machines; second readings approving the West Village/Westlake PUD concept plan (approximately 567.56 acres) and ordinances to annex large tracts and assign land‑use designations and council district assignments for several properties in the city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction. Planning commission recommendations and written findings were cited in staff presentations for each item.
No public speakers appeared on several of the rezoning items; where the planning commission had reviewed items, its findings on adequacy of public infrastructure and plan consistency were summarized. The council approved the ordinances on motions and roll calls as read into the record.
