America Alfa Group Two Family Rezoning at Hearn Road (26-0536)

Context: Council Member Hernandez cast the lone dissenting vote on both first reading (May 12) and second reading (May 19) of File 26-0536.

Recommended: The RS-6-to-RS-TF rezoning for 12937 Hearn Road is now final after an 8-1 second-reading vote; confirm whether any adjacent RS-6 owner plans to challenge the duplex conversion before the statutory zoning-appeal window under Texas Local Government Code Chapter 211 closes.

Context: Item 4's vote record shows Hernandez as the sole 'against' vote 8-1 on May 19, after also dissenting 8-1 on first reading May 12, with no recorded objection in the minutes.

Recommended: Council Member Hernandez pulled this staff- and Planning Commission-recommended item off the agenda specifically to vote no on both readings — request his stated rationale, since the minutes record no explanation for opposing a routine two-family rezoning every other council member supported.

Context: City Council approved the RS-6-to-RS-TF change 8-1 on May 19, 2026, following Planning Commission and staff recommendations for approval.

Recommended: The lot at 12937 Hearn Road can now hold a duplex instead of a single house since the city changed it from single-family (RS-6) to two-family (RS-TF); check Development Services for a filed building permit to see what the owner is actually planning before work starts.
