Schertz Planning and Zoning Meeting - May 6, 2026

The Schertz Planning and Zoning Commission held a meeting on May 6, 2026, primarily to discuss zoning and land use changes related to commercial development along FM 1518 and Ray Corbett Drive. Key procurement-related discussions focused on a proposed zone change from pre-development district to general business district for a 2.1-acre site intended for a convenience store with gas pumps. The commission reviewed a traffic impact analysis and community concerns about traffic congestion, safety, and environmental impacts. The commission recommended approval of the zone change but recommended denial of the specific use permit for the gas station with pumps, citing concerns about proximity to residential areas and traffic safety. Additional zoning changes for mixed-use districts along Main Street were also approved. The meeting included public comments emphasizing traffic, safety, and environmental concerns, and staff discussed potential future workshops on signage regulations. The recommendations will be forwarded to the City Council for final decisions.
