The San Antonio Zoning Commission convened on July 15, 2025, to discuss several zoning change requests that could significantly impact local neighborhoods. The meeting highlighted the ongoing adjustments to zoning regulations in response to community needs and development pressures.

One of the key items on the agenda was a request to change the zoning from R-4 to RM4 for a property located at 1511 Burnett Street. This proposal received 45 notices, with no responses in favor or opposed, indicating a lack of community engagement on this specific change.

Another notable request involved changing the zoning from C1 to IDZ3 for properties at 220 and 224 West Evergreen Street. This change would allow for 60 dwelling units. Out of 28 notices sent, there were 2 in favor, with the Tobin Hill Community Association expressing support. However, the San Antonio District 1 Residents Association did not respond, suggesting a mixed level of community interest.

The commission also reviewed a request to change zoning from RM4 to C1 for properties at 2006 and 2018 Rigsby Avenue. This proposal garnered 30 notices, with no support or opposition recorded, although the Artesia Guild Neighborhood Association was in favor, indicating some backing from local stakeholders.

Another significant discussion involved a request to change zoning from MP-10 to PUD R4 with a reduced perimeter setback at a site located at 3948. This request faced opposition, with 87 notices sent out, resulting in one opposition response and no support from nearby residents.

Additionally, a request to change zoning from R4 and I1 to I1 at the 300 Block of Springfield Road received 13 notices, with no responses in favor or opposed, reflecting a similar trend of limited community feedback.

Lastly, a proposal to change zoning from C2NA and C3 to C2CD for a funeral home and undertaking parlor at 13900 Jones Smallsberger Road was discussed. This request received 32 notices, with 4 in favor and no opposition, while 90 individuals outside the immediate area expressed support, indicating broader community interest in this specific development.

Overall, the meeting underscored the complexities of zoning changes in San Antonio, revealing a landscape where community engagement varies significantly across different proposals. As these discussions continue, the commission will need to navigate the balance between development needs and community sentiments, ensuring that future zoning decisions reflect the interests of residents.
