A request to rezone 13.6 acres on the west side of Preston Road, just north of Prosper Trail, for offices, restaurants and shops is back before Prosper's Planning and Zoning Commission on Tuesday, Oct. 20.
The case would carve the land, known as Saddle Creek Commercial, Block A, Lots 2R and 3, out of Planned Development-31 and create a new planned development for non-residential uses. It sits about 225 feet north of Prosper Trail. The commission will hold a public hearing before voting on a recommendation to the Town Council.
How it got here
This is the second trip to the commission. According to a Sept. 8 memo to the Town Council from Development Services Director David Hoover, planners considered the zoning on Aug. 18 and recommended approval subject to several modifications.
The applicant was revising its zoning exhibits to address those changes, the memo said, so staff asked the council to send the case back to the commission for another look rather than act on it.
Council did that on Sept. 8 as part of its consent agenda, which passed unanimously, according to the meeting minutes. During citizen comments that night, a resident thanked the council for returning the item to the commission.
The case had been expected back before planners Oct. 6, but that meeting was canceled. Tuesday's agenda lists it under a new case number, ZONE-26-0012; the earlier filings used ZONE-25-0003. The packet with the revised exhibits and staff's analysis had not been posted as of Wednesday night, so the specific changes are not yet public.
Other items
