BY:Daisy Marquez, Senior Planner
SUBJECT:PLSPU20260003 - Hold a public hearing and make a recommendation on a Specific Use Permit to allow a convenience
store with gas pumps on approximately 7.8 acres of land, located approximately 51-feet west from the intersection of
IH-35 N Access Road and FM 2252, also known as 18920 IH 35 N, more specifically known as Guadalupe County
Property Identification Number 114083 and Comal County Property Identification Number 119021, City of Schertz, Comal
and Guadalupe County, Texas.
BACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow a convenience store with gas pumps on approximately
7.8 acres of land, located approximately 51-feet west from the intersection of IH-35 N Access Road and FM
2252, City of Schertz, Comal and Guadalupe County, Texas. The subject property is currently undeveloped and
currently zoned General Business District (GB). As per UDC Section 21.5.8, a Specific Use Permit is required for
a convenience store with gas pumps in General Business District (GB).
A previous Specific Use Permit application, PLSPU20230153, known as Ordinance 23-S-32, was approved by
City Council on January 09, 2024, and expired on January 09, 2026, because the applicant did not receive a
building permit. The applicant has an approved Final Plat, Site Plan, and is close to finalizing their building permit
approval.
On January 22, 2026, eight (8) public hearing notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners within a
200-foot boundary of the subject property. At the time of the staff report, zero (0) responses in favor, (0)
responses neutral, and zero (0) responses in opposition have been received. A public hearing notice sign was
posted by the applicant on January 20, 2026. A public hearing notice will be published in the San Antonio
Express prior to the City Council meeting.

GOAL
The applicant is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow a convenience store with gas pumps on approximately
7.8 acres of land, located approximately 51-feet west from the intersection of IH-35 N Access Road and FM
2252, City of Schertz, Comal and Guadalupe County, Texas. The subject property is currently undeveloped and
currently zoned General Business District (GB).
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
It is the City’s desire to promote safe, orderly, efficient development and ensure compliance with the
City’s vision of future growth.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
When evaluating Specific Use Permits, staff references UDC Section 21.5.11.D. for the criteria of approval. The
criteria are listed below:
1. The proposed use at the specified location is consistent with the policies of the adopted Comprehensive
Land Plan, or any other applicable adopted plans.
The subject property is designated as Mixed-Use Center in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Future Land Use
Map. The Mixed-Use Center Future Land Use Designation is intended for a combination of higher-density
housing, locally serving commercial and recreational uses. Mixed-Use centers are typically located along
significant transportation corridors. The proposed Specific Use Permit (SUP) to allow a convenience store with
gas pumps meets the intent of the Mixed-Use Land Use Designation. The subject property is located along IH-35,
a major transportation network, and would only have access from IH-35 frontage road, thus meeting the intent of
the Future Land Use Designation.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the applicable zoning district
regulations;
General Business District (GB) is intended to provide suitable areas for the development of non-residential uses
that may include retail and service establishments that are generally oriented toward serving the overall needs of
the community and are usually located along principal transportation corridors. The proposed development's
location along IH-35 N allows for the development to take advantage of IH-35 traffic and the surrounding
neighborhoods for business.
3. The proposed use is compatible with and preserves the character and integrity of adjacent developments
and neighborhoods.
The proposed development is surrounded by adjacent General Business District zoning and is compatible with the
existing development. The proposed convenience store with gas pumps will be required to meet all current City of
existing development. The proposed convenience store with gas pumps will be required to meet all current City of
Schertz site development standards stipulated in Article 9. Article 9 is in place to ensure adverse effects of
development are minimized and mitigated on neighboring properties.
4. The proposed use will not adversely affect the overall health, safety or general welfare of the City;
As part of promoting health, safety and welfare, the City should encourage development compatible with
surrounding uses utilizing standards and transitional uses to alleviate negative impacts. Given the existing
General Business District (GB) zoning of the adjacent surrounding properties, the location of the subject property
on IH-35 N Access Road, and all access to the subject property being from IH-35 N Access Road, the proposed
convenience store with gas pumps would not pose an adverse impact on adjacent properties.
5. Whether other factors are deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the Specific Use
Permit.
Staff has ensured all UDC requirements have been met for the Specific Use Permit. A Specific Use Permit was
approved for this subject property for the same proposed use on January 9, 2024, that expired on January 9, 2026.
The subject property has an approved final plat, site plan, and a building permit application currently under review.
The City of Schertz Fire, EMS, and Police Departments have reviewed the proposed Specific Use Permit request
and do not provide objections.
RECOMMENDATION
The proposed Specific Use Permit meets the intent of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Future Land Use Map
and is compatible with the surrounding area. Thus, Staff recommends approval of the Specific Use Permit to
allow a convenience store with gas pumps at the subject property, conditioned upon the following:
1. A building permit is approved within two years of the adoption of the SUP Ordinance.

PREPARED
BY:William Willingham, Planner
SUBJECT:PLSPU20260006 - Hold a public hearing and make a recommendation on a request for a Specific Use Permit to allow a Truck Terminal on approximately 4.1 acres
of land, located approximately 600-feet west of the intersection of Baugh Lane and Schwab Road, also known as 23870 Baugh Lane, more specifically known as
Comal County Parcel Identification Number 464879, City of Schertz, Comal County, Texas.
BACKGROUND
The applicant is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow truck terminal land use on approximately 4.1 acres of land currently zoned General Business District
(GB). Per the applicant's letter of intent, the applicant intends to develop the property as a parking lot to serve as a truck terminal for the overflow of
trucks from SYSCO located across Baugh Lane.
This request is made as the previously approved Ordinance 23-S-33 which authorized a Specific Use Permit for a truck terminal has expired. Per the
conditions of Ordinance 23-S-33, a "building permit [must be] approved within two (2) years of the adoption of the ordinance." A building permit was not
issued within two years of the ordinance's adoption and the SUP expired as of January 9, 2026.
On January 23, 2026, six (6) public notices were mailed to the surrounding properties within a 200-foot boundary of the subject property. At the time of the
staff report on Wednesday January 28, 2026, zero (0) responses in favor, zero (0) responses neutral, and zero (0) responses in opposition have been received. A
public hearing notice will be published in the "San Antonio Express" prior to the City Council Meeting. Additionally, two (2) notification signs were placed on
the property by the applicant.

COMMUNITY BENEFIT
It is the City’s desire to promote safe, orderly, efficient development and ensure compliance with the City’s vision of future growth.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
When evaluating specific use permit requests, staff considers the criteria listed in UDC Section 21.5.11.D. The criteria are listed below.
When evaluating specific use permit requests, staff considers the criteria listed in UDC Section 21.5.11.D. The criteria are listed below.
1. The proposed use at the specified location is consistent with the policies of the adopted Comprehensive Land Plan, or any other applicable adopted
plans.
The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as Regional Corridor. The Regional Corridor future land use designation is intended for commercial
development along major thoroughfares that serve populations within the city and broader region. The proposed truck terminal is located between SYSCO and
IH-35 and is located in an area that takes advantage of traffic entering or exiting the site. Additionally, the proposed development will act as an additional
buffer from SYSCO and the IH-35 frontage. Thus, the proposed truck terminal meets the intent of the Comprehensive Land Plan.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the general purpose and intent of the applicable zoning district regulations.
The subject property is currently zoned General Business District (GB). This district is intended to provide suitable areas for the development of non-residential
uses which offer a wide variety of retail and service establishments that are generally oriented toward serving the overall needs of the entire community.
These businesses are usually located on principal transportation corridors. The location and specific use request for a truck terminal is consistent with the
zoning district.
3. The proposed use is compatible with and preserves the character and integrity of adjacent developments and neighborhoods.
The proposed development is compatible with the surrounding area. The proposed truck terminal is adjacent to General Business District (GB) to the east, west,
and south with Manufacturing District (Light) (M-1) to the north. The proposed truck terminal will be required to meet all current City of Schertz site
development standards stipulated in Article 9. Article 9 is in place to ensure adverse effects of development are minimized and mitigated on neighboring
properties.
4. The proposed use will not adversely affect the overall health, safety, or general welfare of the City.
As part of promoting health, safety and welfare, the City should encourage development compatible with surrounding uses utilizing standards and transitional
uses to alleviate negative impacts. Given the existing General Business and Manufacturing (light) zoning of surrounding properties, access from Baugh Lane,
and the proposed use supporting an existing use, the proposed truck terminal would not pose an adverse impact on adjacent properties.
5. Whether other factors are deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the Specific Use Permit.
All UDC requirements have been met for the proposed Specific Use Permit.
At this time, the development has an approved site plan to serve as a truck terminal which has met the site design requirements of Article 9. There is also an
approved final plat for the site which is currently pending county recordation. These applications were submitted and approved prior to the expiration of the
SUP Ordinance 23-S-33.
City of Schertz Fire, EMS, and Police Departments have been notified of the Specific Use Permit and have provided no objections to the request.
RECOMMENDATION
Due to the consistency with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Land Use Map, the support the use provides for an existing development, and considering the
previously approved SUP request, staff recommends approval of PLSPU20260006 with the following condition:
1. A building permit is approved within two years of the adoption of the SUP Ordinance.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING: 02/04/2026
Agenda Item 5 C
TO:Planning and Zoning Commission
PREPARED
BY:William Willingham, Planner
SUBJECT:PLUDC20260015 - Conduct a public hearing, workshop, discussion, and possible action to make a recommendation on
amendments to Part III of the Schertz Code of Ordinance, Unified Development Code (UDC), to Article 8 Section 21.8.4 -
Home Occupations and Article 16- Definitions.
BACKGROUND
Per Unified Development Code (UDC), Section 21.4.7, City Council may, from time to time, on its own motion,
or at the request of the City Manager or his/her designee, may change or modify the UDC in order to establish
and maintain sound, stable, and desirable development. The proposed UDC amendments, which were initiated by
the Planning Division Staff, are intended to update the requirements for establishing home occupations in the City
of Schertz to comply with the regulatory policy established by Texas House Bill (HB) 2464 "No-Impact Home
Based Business." HB 2464 was passed on June 12, 2025 by the State of Texas and was made effective
immediately upon its passage. The bill establishes specific criteria for how a municipality in the State of Texas is
allowed to regulate home-based businesses, largely preventing municipalities from restricting these kinds of
businesses.
The proposed amendments include modifications to Article 8 Section 21.8.4- Home Occupations and Article 16-
Definitions; to revise required conditions, eliminate allowed uses, and eliminate permit requirements. The
proposed amendments have been reviewed by Schertz' legal team to ensure all changes are compliant with all
applicable law.

defined in Article 8 Section 21.8.4.
GOAL
To amend Part III of the Schertz Code of Ordinance, Unified Development Code (UDC) Article 8 Section 21.8.4-
Home Occupations and Article 16- Definitions.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
It is the City’s desire to promote safe, orderly, efficient development and ensure compliance with the
City’s vision of future growth.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
When considering UDC amendments, staff considered the criteria listed in UDC Section 21.4.7.D. The criteria are
listed below:
1. The proposed amendment promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the City
The proposed amendment promotes the general welfare of the City by bringing UDC Section 21.8.4- Home
Occupations into compliance with the regulations established by the Texas Local Government Code (LGC). On
June 12, 2025, the 89th Legislature of the State of Texas passed and approved House Bill 2464. This bill is
related to the authority of a municipality to regulate a home-based business. The bill prohibits municipalities from
adopting and enforcing ordinances that prohibit "no-impact home-based businesses," and also prohibits the
requirement of permits, approvals, or changes in zoning to establish these businesses. This bill was effective
immediately, causing large sections of UDC Section 21.8.4- Home Occupation, to become noncompliant with the
Texas LGC Section 229.902.
2. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the UDC and the City
The purpose and intent of the UDC is to ensure the safe, orderly, and efficient development and expansion of the
City. The proposed revisions to UDC Article 21.8.4- Home Occupations are necessary to become compliant with
the State of Texas by ensuring developmental policy adopted by the City is not prohibited per Texas LGC
Section 229.902. Thus, the proposed amendment is consistent with the goals of the City.
3. The proposed amendment corrects an error, meets the challenge of changing conditions, or is in
response to changes in state law
The proposed revisions to UDC Article 21.8.4- Home Occupations are in response to the adoption of Texas House
Bill 2464 which limits the municipal authority to regulate "no-impact home-based businesses." This bill was made
effective immediately upon its adoption on June 12, 2025, causing large sections of UDC Section 21.8.4- Home
Occupation, to become noncompliant with the Texas LGC.
4. Other factors which are deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the amendment
Staff has ensured all UDC requirements have been met for the proposed Unified Development Code
Amendments.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of PLUDC20260015.
