Planning staff says HEB opens May 20; Holiday Inn aiming for June 1
Summary
City planning staff updated the commission on recent development activity: HEB's grocery store opening on May 20 and a hotel (Holiday Inn) targeting a June 1 opening; staff also noted social media posts about permitting were inaccurate.
Planning staff delivered a status update on several projects in Bedford, including Market Gateway, plats, and recent council approvals. "HEB grocery store is opening on May 20," the planner said, and staff noted a retail center and sign ordinance were approved by council at its Tuesday meeting.
The planner also addressed a hotel referenced locally as the Cozy Hotel, identifying it as a Holiday Inn and saying the operator hopes to open by June 1. Staff acknowledged incorrect information had circulated on social media about permitting and invited commissioners or members of the public to speak to staff after the meeting for clarification.
