Council approves construction‑trades conditional rezoning at 13526 Nacogdoches Road without buffer condition
Summary
The council approved rezoning 13526 Nacogdoches Road from C2 to C2CD for a construction trades contractor facility and voted to approve the item without the staff‑recommended 15‑foot Type B rear buffer, following the Zoning Commission recommendation.
The City Council on Feb. 19 approved a change of zoning for 13526 Nacogdoches Road from C2 to C2CD to permit a construction trades contractor facility. Planning staff recommended approval with a 15‑foot Type B landscape buffer along the rear property line adjacent to single‑family homes; the Zoning Commission had recommended approval without that condition. Councilman White moved to approve without the buffer condition, citing the site’s existing concrete parking lot and the burden of installing the buffer, and the council carried the motion.
Staff told the council they mailed 43 notices and received two returned in favor; no neighborhood association responses were recorded in the staff presentation. Councilman White argued the buffer requirement would force removal of a concrete parking surface and that the Zoning Commission had approved the project without the condition. The council voted to approve the rezoning without the staff‑recommended buffer.
The rezoning permits the conditional use for a construction trades contractor facility at the Nacogdoches Road address. The record shows the motion carried; the transcript does not include a detailed roll call tally.
