Round Rock City Council approved May 23 the annexation and rezoning of a 2.5 acre parcel near the intersection of Red Bud Lane and Doris Lane, with the potential for a new townhome development.
In a nutshell
Townhomes are a “missing middle” type of dwelling in the area that provide alternatives to single family homes and multifamily developments, according to Director of Planning and Development Bradley Dushkin.
Dushkin told council a neighboring resident raised concerns that the development would increase traffic in the area; however, city documents indicate there are road improvements planned for the Doris Lane and Red Bud Lane intersection—outlined in the city’s capital improvement projects. Plans also include widening Doris Lane to a three-lane roadway.
