Summary
The City of Austin is considering a zoning change for a 1.9-acre property located at 11819 IH-35. Currently unzoned, the property is proposed to be designated as Community Commercial-Mixed Use-Conditional Overlay (GR-MU-CO). This change, recommended by city staff and approved by the Zoning and Platting Commission, aims to facilitate the development of a convenience store/gas station while prohibiting certain uses, such as automotive rentals and outdoor entertainment, to maintain compatibility with surrounding residential areas. The property, owned by the Protestant Episcopal Church Council of the Diocese of Texas, is adjacent to multifamily housing and a religious assembly. This zoning change is significant as it aligns with the city's planning goals to provide accessible services
