Commission approves rezoning to allow second residence on Yoder property
Summary
The commission rezoned a nearly 40-acre Yoder property from R1 to A1 to allow a second manufactured home; staff noted water is present but the parcel lacks city sewer so septic will be used. The vote was 6–0 with one member absent.
The Texa County Planning Commission voted to rezone a roughly 39.7-acre parcel owned by Michael and Marsha Yoder from R1 (rural residential) to A1 (limited mixed use) to permit a second residence on the lot.
Planning staff told the commission the property currently has a manufactured home and lies within an overlay district; because it is not served by city sewer the property will require a septic system for an additional residence. Staff said the parcel meets the two-and-a-half-acre-per-house requirement under the A1 zoning category.
Commissioners asked about surrounding uses and infrastructure; staff noted nearby development in Hastings Crossing includes manufactured homes and temporary secondary residences such as RVs, and said there was no objection to a second mobile home on the parcel. A motion to approve the rezoning passed by roll-call vote: Steven Cross, Anita Picket, Jason Dupri, Dr. Hickerson, Corey Mobs and Chairman Neil recorded yes votes; one commissioner was absent.
The rezoning permits the property owners to pursue placement of the second manufactured home in compliance with zoning and building standards, including septic permitting and inspections.
