City Council voted Aug. 28 to deny a rezoning request to turn land on Spicewood Springs Road into a commercial office space.
The project, named Overlook at Spicewood Springs, was proposed for two stories above street level with an underground parking garage at 4920 Spicewood Springs Road, said Scott Taylor, developer for the project and president of project management company Tierra Concepts LLC. Taylor requested the land be rezoned from single-family residential use to general office.
Councilwoman Laura Morrison said she opposed the Overlook rezoning because it could cause "tug-of-war" with variance requests. The land is located in the Bull Creek Watershed and near environmental features such as rimrock.
