AGENDA ITEM NO. 6: Public hearing, discussion, and consideration of a Rezoning for the
tract of land located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Krenek Tap Road and State
Highway 6 South from R-1, Single Family Residential, to C-1, General Commercial. (02-121)
Staff Planner Hitchcock presented the staff report and opened by stating that Staff recommends denial
of the rezoning. The subject property is at the corner of Krenek Tap and State Highway 6 frontage
road and three roads on the Thoroughfare Plan abut the property. Ms. Hitchcock explained that the C-
1 zoning would not be in compliance with the Land Use Plan, which shows the subject property to be
Mixed Use Development. She added that if the Commission wishes to deviate from the Future Land
Use Plan by rezoning this property to C-1, they should acknowledge that they are recommending to the
Council a different land use concept with a statement requesting the change. Additionally, the
property was annexed into the city in 1971 and zoned as R-1 as a holding zone. The property has
remained as such and has not been platted.
Chairman Floyd opened the public hearing.
The following spoke in favor of the rezoning;
Veronica Morgan, Mitchell & Morgan, LLP
Thomas Madison, Property Owner, Austin, Texas
The following spoke in opposition to the rezoning
