Gonzales advances multiple rezoning items and approves special-use permit for outdoor storage
Summary
Council introduced several zoning-map amendments and set public hearings for parcels including L Coal LLC, SKR Real Estate LLC (lot 13), Coleman Roofing, Stole Group, and Stow Group, and approved a special-use permit for SKR Real Estate LLC to develop outdoor storage on lots 14 and 15. Planning and Zoning recommended approval for these items.
The Gonzales City Council moved several planning items forward and approved a special-use permit for outdoor storage during its regular meeting.
Planning staff introduced ordinances to amend the planning and development map for multiple parcels — including a proposal to rezone 1.77 acres for L Coal LLC (parcel 273360 at 3200 Burnside Avenue), a request to rezone 0.686 acres (lot 13 in the Philipp subdivision) for SKR Real Estate LLC, a rezoning request by Coleman Roofing for property on Robert Wilson Road, and two related rezonings for a development tract in Conway for the Stole and Stow groups. Staff said Planning and Zoning recommended approval of the proposals; the council introduced each ordinance and set public hearings for the next meeting.
During the SKR Real Estate agenda item, the council considered a special-use permit application for lots 14 and 15 to establish an outdoor storage yard. Staff clarified that the owner’s broader plan is for lots 13, 14 and 15 but that lot 13 cannot proceed with special use until it is rezoned. Jared, identified as planning staff, told the council, “What is in front of you today is simply an introduction,” describing that the introductions place items on the next meeting’s public-hearing agenda.
Councilors moved, seconded, and recorded affirmative votes to approve the special-use permit for SKR Real Estate LLC for lots 14 and 15 during this meeting; the transcript shows a series of affirmative responses recorded at the time of the motion. The transcript does not include a roll-call listing of individual council votes for the special-use permit in the excerpt provided.
Next steps: the ordinances introduced by staff will be the subject of public hearings at the next council meeting; the SKR special-use permit for lots 14 and 15 was approved and may proceed under the conditions discussed, while the owner’s plans for lot 13 are contingent on future rezoning.
