Rezoning request causes contention

by | Feb 28, 2019 | Latest

Sachse City Council discussed and planned for future growth last week.

Land, road, community center and crime updates were all brought before the council during the regularly-scheduled meeting Monday, Feb. 18. Of all the topics reviewed, rezoning a piece of land proved the most contentious.

All Solutions Ltd. requested to rezone a 17.74-acre piece of land along Hudson Drive and Rosewood Lane, bordering Sachse High School. Garland ISD sold the property and Sachse’s Planning and Zoning Commission recommended allowing single-family residences to be built on it.

Council voted 5-2 to rezone the land, with councilmembers Brett Franks and Paul Watkins voting no.
