5 issues in zoning with medium priority
Local Historic Landmark plaque program costs
A member asked to revisit the plaque program next month — the replica marker design was praised but the roughly $1,600 price may be too steep for many homeowners and businesses.
Annexation and commercial rezoning at 1726 North Main
The city annexed the 9.4-acre Pat and John's tract and rezoned it for general commercial use, unlocking city water and sewer for an existing business park, laundromat, and future restaurant. Owners fixed code issues before the vote.
Tower Street Residential Rezoning
A property owner is fixing the zoning on two houses on South Tower Street so they are officially recognized as residential instead of commercial, making it easier to sell them.
Commercial Rezoning at Cleburne Avenue and Tin Top Road
BT Cobb Development requested a zoning change from Agricultural to C2 Interstate Commercial for a 14.17-acre property. Neighbors questioned why interstate commercial was selected over general commercial and whether building setbacks and masonry screening walls would apply.
Data Center Regulations and Community Standards
City staff briefly addressed upcoming code amendments regarding data centers, noting that a planned discussion was pulled from the agenda. A resident also voiced concerns over potential water, power, and noise impacts from future data center projects.
