# Planning R 399 261110 Agenda Review

The Planning Commission’s pre-agenda review on November 10, 2026 covered zoning and land-use cases, with staff recommendations but no votes or procurement actions identified. Topics included a proposed reduction of the historic overlay boundary contingent on relocating the Moses Armstrong House; residential rezonings and plan amendments near Southshore Drive and Wallace Road and near Coward Mill Road; a setback reduction request for a subdivision; and a proposed drive-through coffee shop on Chapman Highway, which staff recommended denying because it did not meet pedestrian-oriented district goals. Staff also recommended denial of a 101-lot subdivision proposal because of open-space, environmental, and traffic-safety concerns, and opposed a neighborhood-commercial rezoning on Maple Green Lane as inconsistent with the area’s plan and residential character.

The Director reminded members that TDOT’s recommended alternatives and agency comments are open for public feedback through November 26, and announced free continuing-education training and a planned draft of the comprehensive plan after the first of the year. The meeting also included training on conflict-of-interest disclosures and abstention requirements. No contracts, vendor selections, budget allocations, bid approvals, or other procurement activity were identified.
