ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:
Hemphill LLC is proposing a 135-foot communication antenna and support structure on a vacant area behind an existing retail shopping center at the northeast corner of West Main Street (FM 1171) and Valley Parkway. A special use permit (SUP) for the proposed communication antenna and support structure was approved on October 20, 2025; however, the structure was never constructed. The applicant now wishes to revise the zoning plan by shifting the 3,600 square-foot tower compound area more than 10 feet to the west to avoid underground fiber-optic cables, which requires approval of an amendment to the original SUP. The proposed antenna and support structure is needed to improve mobile phone signal coverage in the general area. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended unanimous approval (5-0), with one member abstaining, on May 19, 2026.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve the ordinance as set forth in the caption above.
