300 Kimball Lane SW rezoning to single-family

Town Council rezoned about 37.987 acres at 300 Kimball Lane SW from Agricultural (A) to Single-Family Residential (R-1) on February 24, 2026, on a 3-3 vote broken by the Mayor in favor. The applicant's proffers cover density, a public road connection, warranted road improvements, keeping an existing wooded area, and phasing. Under the phasing proffer, building stops after the 53rd lot until another traffic study is done and any needed road improvements are made.

The project

The details.

The Planning Commission recommended approval 5-3 on October 20, 2025. After Council's October 28, 2025 hearing the applicant added a fifth proffer, which required second hearings; on February 2, 2026 the Planning Commission voted 2-3 not to recommend approval, with three members absent. On February 24, 2026 a motion to deny failed when the Mayor broke a 3-3 tie against it, and a motion to approve then passed when the Mayor broke a 3-3 tie in favor. Residents asked Council in March 2026 to reconsider. Total lot count is not stated in the posted agendas and is left out here. The area is designated Residential on the 2013 Future Land Use Map.
