County rezoning request to RS‑1 continued after resident concerns
Summary
The commission voted to continue CZ‑593, a request to rezone about 80 acres from AG to RS‑1 for a 108‑lot subdivision, to June 17, 2026, after nearby landowners raised concerns about density and potential impacts to agricultural neighbors.
A county rezoning request (CZ‑593) to change roughly 80 acres from Agriculture (AG) to RS‑1 (single‑family residential) — a conceptual plan showing approximately 108 half‑acre lots — was continued to the commission's June 17 meeting.
Staff said the proposed RS‑1 zoning would be generally consistent with the Rural Residential/Agricultural Comprehensive Plan designation and that platting and engineering reviews would be required to address access, drainage, and infrastructure. Dr. Eric Mikel, a nearby landowner, testified that he owns agricultural property adjacent to the tract and opposed the change, saying, "I do not want the zoning to change to residential and later have them go through eminent domain." The commission first failed a motion to deny and then approved a motion to continue the item to June 17 (Motion by Craddock; Second by Turner‑Addison), voting 9–1 to continue. The continued date will allow additional outreach and technical review during the county platting and engineering processes.
