Thompson - SUP — tobacco sales
A specific use permit is requested to allow tobacco sales in the Regional Commercial District on 1.1 acres at 400 E. Hwy 67. This case is relevant if you have interests in tobacco retail operations or commercial development in Alvarado's RC zones.
29-2026 — Commercial and assisted living with memory care
E-Z Mart Stores is seeking to rezone approximately 20.8 acres from Agricultural to Neighborhood Mixed Use to enable commercial and assisted living development at 723 N. Cummings Drive. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Future Land Use Plan and involves properties that are currently surrounded by various commercial and multi-family zoning districts. The project will substantially alter the character and permitted uses on a large agricultural parcel in Alvarado.
16-2026 — Master Planned Community with residential, commercial, and mixed-use components
This large 228-acre master planned community rezoning on Parkway Drive includes mixed residential (SF-2, GH) and commercial (RMU) districts designed to align with the city's comprehensive plan. The RMU district along IH 35W allows structures up to 55 feet, though the master plan envisions three-story maximum heights, with a floodplain buffer protecting future residential areas.

This case involves amendments to the city's manufactured homes ordinance, updating definitions and regulatory procedures for manufactured home parks and permanent manufactured homes. The changes establish licensing and permitting requirements for manufactured home park operators and define standards for permanent manufactured home placement and utility connections.

This agenda item addresses the Downtown Overlay District (DT) zoning regulations for Alvarado's core downtown area, establishing permitted uses, parking requirements, dimensional standards, and design guidelines. The overlay district mandates strict architectural compatibility, masonry requirements (50-75% of front walls), and incorporates historic design elements from the 1800s-early 1900s. Developers proposing downtown projects must comply with these overlapping requirements including setback averaging, maximum 45-foot building height, 8 dwelling units per acre density cap, and enhanced window transparency standards.
20-2015 — rezoning
This case rezones a small 0.32-acre residential parcel at 905 and 907 Travis Avenue from Single-Family Residential (SF-2) to Garden Home (GH), which would allow denser small-lot single-family development. The change is noted as consistent with the city's Future Land Use Plan (Low-Density Residential / Existing Neighborhood). Given the tiny site and residential nature, this is unlikely to be material to most commercial developers.
