The Morning Impact — your neighborhood's most important stories, delivered every morning.
A future neighborhood-scale retail development could be built on a vacant property along RM 1431, in front of the Mayfield Ranch neighborhood in Round Rock.
The matter will be taken up by the Round Rock City Council to decide.
What you need to know
Developer Endeavor is seeking an amendment to its planned unit development agreement with the city of Round Rock. The proposal would see the property rezoned from office to general commercial with limitations.
City officials will consider the request in a June 11 meeting.
The details
Per the proposed change, the rezoning would prohibit the developer from building structures taller than one story, reduced from the two stories previously allowed under the office zoning.
If rezoned, the property could not be used for a car wash, auto body shop, hotel, urgent care facility, event center or self-service storage facility, among other uses. The rezoning would allow for the proposed retail center, as well as potential day care facilities, fuel sales, auto service, restaurant and bar, dog care, kenneling, training and grooming facilities, as well as sports training facilities.
How we got here
The property was previously zoned for a place of worship, and the property owner listed on the rezoning application is Hill Country Bible Church of Austin. That church is no longer planned for this location, city documents state, but the property will retain this designation if it is rezoned.
Documents also show the 13.22 acre parcel was planned for office or townhome use under the Preserve at Stone Oak PUD, through a series of previous amendments in the early 2000s. It was later partially platted as part of the Mayfield Ranch Enclave development in 2015.
The city's 2030 Comprehensive Plan also designates the property for commercial use.
What's next?
Council 's meeting will be held at Round Rock City Hall, 221 E. Main St., Round Rock.
The meeting is set for 6 p.m. Additional information about council meeting procedures and public comment is available at www.roundrocktexas.gov/city-about-round-rock/city-council.
