Top issues during term (17)(Development)
Proposed Glockenspiel Bell Tower and Plaza at Marktplatz
Private donations built it, but the city budgets about $3,500–$5,000 a year for maintenance.
Multi-family site plan extension at Friendship Lane and South Eagle Street
Park dedication fees will be paid per apartment unit during permitting.
Potential annexation off Victor Eckhardt Road
Annexation would extend city services to a new area; no fiscal figures were presented.
Stehling re-plat and subdivision procedure
Delays push back the family's plans to build homes for relatives, but an administrative path could resolve it quickly.
Replat at 308 Oakhaven Lane
Variances for development at 601 N. Llano Street
The variances would enable construction on a lot that may not otherwise meet C-1 district standards; no dollar figure was provided.
Hominick Homes variances at 601 N. Llano
No direct city cost; the variance allows construction of a roughly 600-square-foot rental studio.
Short-term rental expansion at 301 E. Burbank
The owners' renovation investment rides on whether City Council follows the recommendation; the underlying STR litigation with the city remains paused.
Replat of Stehling lots at 311 S. Crockett Street
Non-buildable lots from the old plat map
More buildable lots means more infill homes and higher property values in older neighborhoods.
Trails of Windcrest Subdivision Phase 1
Parkland dedication fees of $500 per lot (about $47,000 total) will fund park improvements.
Placement of Victorian farmhouse-style structure at 321 W. Creek St.
Exterior remodel and additions at 506 N. Orange St.
Demolition of low-rated structure at 111 E. Creek St.
Thiele Condominiums site plan
Condominium construction would add housing units and property tax value along Thiele Lane.
Highway 87 commercial growth at the eastern gateway
Short-term rental permit appeal denied
The owner loses rental income he used to offset the cost of the house.
