A future grocery store on the city's north side, the rules for manufactured homes and the way site plans are reviewed are all up for public hearings when Aubrey's Planning & Zoning Commission meets at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 12.
Each item then goes to the City Council for its own hearing and a possible vote at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 19. Both meetings are in the council chambers at 226 Countryside Drive, according to notices the city posted on its website.
A grocery store's alcohol permit
The first request is a specific use permit that would allow alcoholic beverage sales "within the future grocery store" planned on about 16.6 acres known as Chaparral Center, Lot 1, Block A. The land lies north of Spring Hill Road and east of U.S. 377, inside the High Pointe planned development, where the underlying zoning is shopping center.
The notice does not name the store or its operator, and it does not say when construction would start.
Manufactured homes and mobile home parks
A second set of changes would rewrite parts of the zoning ordinance. One would add rules for manufactured housing as a use in the AG-R Agricultural Residential District and repeal Section 19 of the code, the district that now covers mobile home parks. The notice lists the sections to be amended but does not spell out the new standards.
Another amendment would revise the city's site plan requirements, touching the definitions, general provisions, planned development and supplementary district sections, along with any others the change affects.
A replat in the ETJ
Commissioners will also hear a request to replat a 1.48-acre lot at 6641 Blackjack Oaks Road, in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction, so two drainage and utility easements crossing the property can be removed.
