At a glance

What: Plan Amendment PA-2026-11600015 and Zoning Case Z-2026-10700060 (District 1): a large area rezoning along Blanco Road between Fresno Street and West Hildebrand Avenue, about 300 feet each side, changing land use to Mixed Use and rezoning to residential mixed and infill development zones.
Where it stands: Approved as amended September 3, 2026, 9-0 (Jones and Alderete Gavito absent). Staff, Planning Commission and Zoning Commission recommended approval.
Next: None.

Six residents, including Finger, spoke in opposition.
Kaur said the request began with a resident whose home was zoned industrial, that her team block-walked the area in February, that Development Services sent letters, held meetings and block-walked in summer, and that 80 percent of residents supported; homes whose owners opposed were removed from the rezoning. Sparrow said height would be limited to that of the adjacent single-family home, multiple units on lots over 4,000 square feet must be in one structure, and smaller lots could not build multifamily. Kaur said the intent was affordable housing for families.
Both items were taken together; Kaur moved to approve as amended, Castillo seconded.

Approved as amended 9-0.
