The application seeks to rezone property on South Cockrell Hill Road from single-family to multifamily use, allowing the Turnquist Exempt Trust to develop the site for multifamily housing. This rezoning would permit denser residential development on currently single-family zoned land, affecting the character of the South Cockrell Hill corridor.

Assess Hill Road land assembly before City Council rezoning vote

Context: Z234-225 passed City Plan Commission 14-0 on January 15, 2026 and 13-0 on December 4, 2025 — two unanimous votes across both hearings strongly indicate Council approval.

Recommended: Two back-to-back unanimous City Plan Commission approvals signal near-certain Council passage for this Hill Road corridor rezoning. If you hold adjacent property or are evaluating this stretch, the window to negotiate site control at pre-approval prices is closing before Council finalizes the entitlement.

Request ownership records for Hill Road trust rezoning applicant

Context: Z234-225 cleared City Plan Commission by votes of 13-0 and 14-0 across two hearings, an unusually clean sweep for a corridor-level zoning case with no dissent on record.

Recommended: A private trust — the Michele Ann Turnquist Exempt Trust — secured a corridor-scope Hill Road rezoning through two unanimous City Plan Commission hearings with no recorded opposition. Request beneficial ownership, legal representation, and any communications between the trust and city staff to identify who stands to benefit.

Register to speak at City Council on Hill Road rezoning before final vote

Context: City Plan Commission approved Z234-225 by votes of 13-0 and 14-0 at its December 4, 2025 and January 15, 2026 hearings; City Council is the only remaining decision body.

Recommended: The Hill Road rezoning (Z234-225) has cleared the City Plan Commission twice and now moves to City Council — the last public opportunity to put concerns about corridor-level land use changes on the record before the vote is final.
