Burleson council creates Chisholm Summit PID and approves rezoning for 2120 Houston Road
Summary
Burleson City Council unanimously approved creation of the Chisholm Summit Public Improvement District, estimated to authorize about $115 million in improvements, and approved a rezoning of 2120 Houston Road from agricultural to single-family estate, both following brief public hearings with no speakers.
Burleson Mayor Chris Fletcher and the city council voted unanimously to create the Chisholm Summit Public Improvement District and to rezone a separate property at 2120 Houston Road during a regularly scheduled meeting.
Tony McLoyne, the city’s development services director, told the council the Chisholm Summit proposal covers a master-planned community of more than 800 acres that would include residential units, dedicated parkland, trails and commercial nodes. McLoyne said the authorized improvements for the PID were estimated at about $115,000,000 and that the applicant’s proposed assessment and tax-rate comparables were included in staff materials. If the council’s action proceeds, McLoyne said the next steps would include an assessment hearing and then first and second readings of a bond ordinance.
On the rezoning, McLoyne told the council the request from property owners Ruben and Lucia Jaramillo would change the site from agricultural zoning to a single-family estate (SFE) zoning consistent with the city’s comprehensive plan; he said the existing residence must be removed prior to permitting a second structure and that the planning commission recommended approval by unanimous vote. The council opened and closed the required public hearing with no members of the public speaking and then approved the ordinance on its first and final reading.
Votes at a glance - Consent agenda (items 5a–5f): motion by Alexa, second by Dan; outcome: approved unanimously. - Rezoning — Case 25-070 (2120 Houston Road): public hearing opened and closed with no speakers; council approved the zoning change, outcome: approved unanimously. - Chisholm Summit Public Improvement District: public hearing opened and closed with no speakers; council approved a resolution to create the PID, outcome: approved unanimously. Tony McLoyne said approving the PID would allow staff and the applicant to proceed to an assessment hearing and bond-ordinance readings if subsequent steps are successful.
Mayor Fletcher presided over the meeting and no contested votes or roll-call disagreements were recorded. The council’s action does not itself levy assessments or bonds; further procedural steps and public hearings were outlined by staff as the next phases in the PID process.
