The zoning change, filed by Maverick Engineering for Planet Paintless at 3415 West Wall Street, rezoned a 0.96‑acre parcel from RR (Regional Retail) to C (Commercial) so the business could add a paint booth. After a staff presentation and a brief statement by the applicant, the commission voted 7‑0 to approve the rezoning.

The commission also approved a preliminary plat for Midland Heights edition, Section 6, a replat of Block 17 at 1002 South Merrimfield Street, to consolidate a 2.64‑acre site into one lot for a church‑affiliated school; staff recommended approval with conditions. Commissioners approved the preliminary plat 7‑0.

Separately, the commission granted a 30‑day extension request for the Crossroads addition, Section 2, a 12.91‑acre tract on the north side of West County Road 72, to allow the applicant and staff additional time to revise plan materials before the next Planning & Zoning meeting; that extension passed 7‑0.

Before those items, the commission removed item 3 from the consent agenda after staff said the applicant had chosen to withdraw the final plat for Sheriff Gary Painter subdivision, a 236.34‑acre tract in the extraterritorial jurisdiction. The commission took no action on that item because the applicant withdrew it.

Staff presentations noted the rezoning request was compatible with surrounding uses and that the Tall City Tomorrow comprehensive plan designates the rezoning area as a special study area with no established policy that would preclude the request. No public comments for or against the rezoning were recorded.

Andrew Mellon of Maverick Engineering, representing Planet Paintless, told the commission the business is “adding a paint booth, and the paint booth's not allowed in RR, so that's why they're going to a C,” and said the booth would be located in the rear of the site.

Motions and procedural notes recorded in the meeting included a motion to approve the consent agenda excluding item 3 made by Commissioner O'Field and seconded by Commissioner Richardson; the commission approved that motion 7‑0. The rezoning motion was made by Commissioner Garza and seconded by Commissioner Cisnega; the preliminary plat motion was made by Commissioner Martin and seconded by Commissioner Berry. The 30‑day extension motion for Crossroads Addition, Section 2, was moved by Commissioner O'Field and seconded by Commissioner Cisneaga.

The commission concluded the meeting after the agenda items were completed; no public comments were made during the public comment period.
