COMP-002154-2025 is a request to change the Comprehensive Plan designation from Levels 3 and 4 to all Level 4 on approximately 11.40 acres which is currently unplatted. The property is located approximately on the northeast corner of New Orleans Street (101st Street) and 9th Street (Lynn Lane).
The applicant is requesting this change to the comprehensive plan for the purpose of constructing a water tower and the future development of the remaining property as a commercial area. Pending approval of this amendment to the comprehensive plan, the applicant intends to submit a rezoning request to change the zoning to CG (Commercial General).
Amending the Comprehensive Plan to Level 4 could potentially support a future rezoning to any zoning district identified as possible or allowed within the Comprehensive Plan level. Table 4-1: Land Use Intensity System Zoning District Table, of the Comprehensive Plan identifies these potential districts.
