Summary
The City of Austin is reviewing a rezoning application for properties located at 1700 and 1704 Lightsey Road, currently designated as family residence (SF-3). The applicant, Dustin Schneider, seeks to rezone the site to townhouse and condominium residence (SF-6), which would allow for the construction of approximately thirty-five homes on the 2.98-acre parcel. This change aims to enhance housing availability in a centrally located area near various amenities. The Planning Commission approved the request, noting that the SF-6 designation aligns with surrounding developments and promotes compatibility with adjacent residential uses. The City Council is set to conduct a public hearing and vote on this ordinance on March 12, 2026.
