Council grants variance to allow six-person community residence at 201 Preston Circle
Summary
The council unanimously granted Martha Robinson a variance to operate a single-family community residence at 201 Preston Circle serving six or fewer adults with disabilities; the variance will be revisited in six months and Robinson said she will conduct background checks.
The Mabank City Council voted unanimously on May 12 to grant a variance allowing Martha Robinson to operate a single-family community residence at 201 Preston Circle that will serve six or fewer adults with disabilities.
Mayor Pro-Tem John Chappell moved for the variance and Deputy Mayor Pro-Tem Tyson Adams seconded; the motion passed unanimously. According to the meeting record, Ms. Robinson stated she will conduct background checks on occupants or staff, and the council scheduled a review of the variance in six months.
The minutes do not record any conditions beyond the six-month revisit or any opposition from council members. The action authorizes local land-use flexibility for a residence serving people with disabilities but does not specify licensing or other programmatic oversight beyond the variance itself.
