Glenn Heights directs staff to draft updated definitions and schedule Planning & Zoning public hearing
Summary
Council and planning commissioners directed staff to draft ordinance language aligning future land-use text with zoning, post a Planning & Zoning public hearing 15 days in advance, and return to council for final adoption.
Council and Planning & Zoning agreed on a procedural path to resolve the map-text disconnect: staff will draft revised definitions for SF1–SF3, townhomes and multifamily consistent with the council/PNZ direction, post the item for a Planning & Zoning public hearing with standard notice, and then return the adopted PNZ recommendation to city council for final action. Planning staff clarified the order: "It has to be done for it to be updated... it has to go before planning and zoning, then go before city council."
Staff also explained practical limits: changes adopted by ordinance will affect vacant or redeveloping parcels going forward; already developed parcels will remain as-built unless rezoned or redeveloped. City staff listed follow-up tasks and timelines and committed to preparing the public-notice packet and a proposed ordinance for PNZ review.
