A public hearing was held to discuss a zoning change application submitted by CAJ Family Limited Partnership for a property located at 1539 East Washington Avenue in Naperville, Texas. The application seeks to change the zoning from a medium-density single dwelling unit district to a General Business District.
During the meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission reported that a previous public hearing on September 12 revealed significant opposition to the proposed zoning change. The majority of comments received were against the application, leading the Commission to unanimously recommend that the city council deny the request. The rationale for this recommendation included concerns that the change would be contrary to the public interest and a precedent of denying similar commercial rezoning attempts in the past.
The city council emphasized the importance of maintaining decorum during the hearing, limiting speakers to three minutes and prohibiting applause or outbursts. The CAJ Family Limited Partnership representatives were present to advocate for their application, but the outcome remains uncertain following the Commission's strong opposition.
