Consider and take action on Ordinance No. 2026-04, approving the permanent zoning change of 917 8th Ave North from District "F" (Light Industrial) to District "S-P" (Site Plan) to allow the Come and See Ministry Mens Discipleship Housing Facility to operate as a halfway house.

On November 19, 2025, the City Commission conducted a public hearing during its regular meeting to gather community feedback regarding the proposed rezoning of 917 8th Ave N from District "F" (Light Industrial) to District "S-P" (Site Plan) to allow the Come and See Ministry Mens Discipleship Housing Facility to operate a halfway house.  After closing the public hearing the City Commission voted ____-0  to grant preliminary zoning approval for the project.
According to the Texas City Code of Ordinances Section 160.106(D)(3), this preliminary approval will be converted into a final ordinance to change the zoning map once a building permit application is submitted for the requested uses. The application must be filed within 12 months from the date of the preliminary zoning approval.  The applicant obtained building permit no. 2025-1300 on December 4, 2025 which was less than 12 months after the date of preliminary zoning approval.  

Staff has confirmed the requirements for permanent rezoning have been met and that the subject property is in compliance with the requirements of District S-P (Site Plan). Recommend approval of the ordinance to finalize the rezoning of 917 8th Ave N from District F (Light Industrial) to District S-P (Site Plan) to allow the Come and See Ministry's Mens Discipleship Housing Facility to operate a halfway house.
