Review draft Planned Development ordinance for West Commerce Street before City Council adopts it

Context: Z234-291(MB) was unanimously approved by City Plan Commission on January 23, 2025 and advances to City Council, making pre-adoption review the last practical opportunity to flag ordinance language.

Recommended: If you represent property owners or tenants in the West Commerce/Fort Worth Avenue corridor, request and review the draft Planned Development subdistrict ordinance now — before City Council adoption — to identify non-standard use restrictions, deed conditions, or compliance triggers that become binding upon passage.

Lock in site control near West Commerce Street before City Council finalizes rezoning

Context: Z234-291(MB) carried 15-0 at City Plan Commission on January 23, 2025 with staff recommending approval; the only remaining step is City Council final adoption.

Recommended: The unanimous City Plan Commission vote signals City Council will likely adopt the new Planned Development subdistrict for the West Commerce/Fort Worth Avenue corridor. This is the window to negotiate site control on adjacent or nearby parcels before the rezoning is publicly reflected in land values.

Request voting records from West Commerce rezoning where two commissioners were absent but counted as yes votes

Context: Item #15 vote notes from the January 23, 2025 City Plan Commission meeting on Z234-291(MB) explicitly state 'Shidid and Wheeler-Reagan out of room, shown voting in favor.'

Recommended: The official vote notes state that Commissioners Shidid and Wheeler-Reagan were out of the room at the time of the vote but are shown voting in favor — request the written minutes and any procedural explanation from City Plan Commission staff to determine whether the 15-0 tally is valid.
