Commission approves rezoning to I‑1 for Highway 5 industrial site
Summary
The commission approved rezoning from Agricultural to I‑1 Light Industrial for a parcel at the southeast corner of State Highway 5 and Wilmoth Road, finding the request consistent with surrounding industrial uses and the comprehensive plan's employment designation; it will be forwarded to City Council Feb. 3.
Planning staff recommended rezoning a parcel at SE Highway 5 and Wilmoth Road from Agriculture to I‑1 Light Industrial, finding that the surrounding area is already industrial and the comprehensive plan designates the site as employment land. The applicant (Kimley‑Horn representative) confirmed coordination steps with the Texas Historical Commission if the historical marker issue requires relocation.
A nearby property representative, David Tarrant, said the small historic house on or near the site had burned years ago and described surrounding development activity; commissioners closed the public hearing and voted unanimously to forward the rezoning to City Council for final action on Feb. 3.
