This request seeks a new Planned Development Subdistrict for a property currently zoned for single-family residential use on the south side of West Davis Street, west of Cockrell Hill Road, within the West Davis Special Purpose District. A Planned Development Subdistrict would set custom rules for what can be built on the site instead of the standard residential rules. The request is brought by representative Karl Crawley of Masterplan Consultants and is reviewed by the City Plan Commission and the City Council.

Attorney

Compare rezoning conditions across three commission hearings

Why now: The case was held over from January 15, 2026 and reheard February 5 (14-0) and March 26 (13-0) before the April 22, 2026 council public hearing, with the same 'approval, subject to conditions' recommendation each time (Z-25-000157).

What to do: Obtain from planner Mona Hashemi the staff condition sets circulated for the January 15, February 5 and March 26 commission hearings and the ordinance draft carried to the April 22 council hearing, then determine whether the conditions the commission actually voted 13-0 on in March match the ordinance text council considered. If the case was held from January 15 to allow condition revisions, any divergence between the recommended and enacted conditions is the question to resolve before relying on the subdistrict.

Developer

Get final building rules for West Davis Street subdistrict

Why now: Staff and City Plan Commission both recommended approval subject to conditions for the new Planned Development Subdistrict on the south line of West Davis Street west of Cockrell Hill Road (Z-25-000157), heard by council April 22, 2026.

What to do: Request the ordinance text and development plan conditions presented at the April 22 council hearing to confirm exactly which uses, heights, setbacks and parking standards now replace the single-family R-7.5(A) rules on this tract inside the West Davis Special Purpose District. Both staff and the commission recommended approval only 'subject to conditions,' so what is buildable here depends entirely on that condition list, not on the subdistrict label.

Journalist

Ask why West Davis rezoning outcome is still unrecorded

Why now: Minutes show the case carried 13-0, 14-0 and 13-0 at three commission hearings and reached a council public hearing on April 22, 2026, yet the matter status is still active with next step unknown, and item 28 was heard together with an unnamed item 27.

What to do: Request the April 22, 2026 council minutes and voting record for this case from the city secretary, and ask staff why the matter remains open months later despite three unanimous commission votes and staff support. Separately, identify the companion item heard together with this case at the February 5 commission meeting — the two were read into the record jointly, and the record here never names the other case.

Resident

See what can replace single-family homes near Cockrell Hill Road

Why now: The application converts R-7.5(A) Residential Subdistrict land within Planned Development District 631 to a new Planned Development Subdistrict, approved by the commission 13-0, 14-0 and 13-0 in Council District 1, with Mona Hashemi as assigned planner.

What to do: Ask planner Mona Hashemi for the development plan and condition list for the site on the south side of West Davis Street west of Cockrell Hill Road, which shows the building height, permitted uses and parking that would replace today's single-family R-7.5(A) standards. The commission approved this three times without a single dissenting vote, so the conditions document — not further hearings — is where the actual neighborhood impact is defined.
