Chapter 14 SUP Expiration Text Amendment — Amend general expiration requirements for Specific Use Permit (SUP) districts by removing the provision that a use discontinued for 180 days is presumed abandoned, so any existing SUP expires immediately if the business shuts down in Azle, TX
This is a citywide text amendment to Azle's Zoning Ordinance changing how Specific Use Permits (SUPs) expire. Staff proposed removing the 180-day discontinuance/abandonment provision, which would cause any existing SUP to expire immediately if the business shuts down. Developers relying on SUP-based uses should note this makes SUP rights far more fragile, as a temporary closure could trigger immediate expiration. The commission voted 5-0 to approve as presented.
