The subject area is approximately 0.1 of an acre on the south side of Alyssa Way, approximately 300 feet northeast of the intersection of Alyssa Way, a proposed minor arterial, and State Hwy 46, an existing principal arterial, approximately 300 feet southwest of Fire Station 4, and approximately 800 feet south of Oak Run Middle School. It is bordered by R-1, R-2, C-1, C-1A, and C-1B zoning. Adjacent land uses include undeveloped property, Oak Run Middle School, Fire Station 4, and commercial properties.
ISSUE:
The subject area represents small portions of 2 existing platted lots, the majority of which are zoned C-1. The applicant is requesting to rezone to C-1B to ensure the entire property is designated for commercial use. The C-1B district allows for a variety of office and retail uses and is typically situated at major intersections to support higher traffic volumes generated by commercial activity. The proposed zoning will allow for consistent development standards across the entire site.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REFERENCE:
C-1B would be consistent with the following actions from Envision New Braunfels:
• Action 1.3: Encourage balanced and fiscally responsible land use patterns.
• Action 3.1: Plan for healthy jobs/housing balance.
• Action 3.3: Balance commercial centers with stable neighborhoods.
• Action 3.6: Pro actively provide a regulatory framework that remains business and resident friendly.
Future Land Use Plan: The subject property is located within the Veramendi Sub Area, along a Transitional Mixed-Use Corridor, near existing Civic and Education Centers, and near a future Market Center.

Recommendation
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval. The subject area is part of a larger tract zoned for commercial use, and this request will align the zoning across the entire site. The location at a major intersection and adjacent to commercial, civic, and educational uses makes it suitable for the requested zoning. The proposed change will support cohesive site development and is compatible with the surrounding area.
Mailed notification as required by state statute:
Public hearing notices were sent to owners of 6 properties within 200 feet of the request. As of the date this agenda was posted, the city has received no responses.
