Granbury City Council meeting, April 7, 2026: Comp Plan Amendment and Zoning Change

The City of Granbury held a City Council meeting on April 7, 2026, to consider a comprehensive plan amendment and zoning change request for a 2,000-plus acre property at 2801 West US Highway 377. The proposal sought to amend the land use from low and high density residential, retail/office, and commercial to industrial, and to change the zoning from interim holding to industrial. The meeting included a public hearing with extensive community input, largely opposing the industrial zoning due to concerns about environmental impact, noise, water usage, proximity to residences and schools, transparency, and potential effects on the local airport. City staff recommended approval of the comprehensive plan amendment and zoning change, but the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to deny the comprehensive plan amendment and the zoning change. The City Council also moved to deny the zoning change to industrial. The discussion highlighted significant public opposition, legal and procedural concerns, and questions about the appropriateness of the zoning change for the area.
