Development News from the latest meeting

Castle Hills Golf Course Rezoned to Allow Expansion of Tennis and Addition of Pickleball Courts
The City Council considered an ordinance to rezone approximately 2.577 acres of the Castle Hills Golf Course from Planned Development Single Family Residential (PDR 12) to Planned Development General Business (PDGB 2) to allow for the expansion of a tennis facility and the addition of pickleball courts. The property owner, CHGC LLC, represented by applicant McAdams, is proposing this change to bring the expansion into compliance with city development standards, as the original facility predates annexation. The plan includes adding pickleball courts and additional parking. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended unanimous approval, and several residents submitted comments in support. Concerns were raised about the new parking area being partially within a floodplain and potential stormwater runoff increases. The applicant agreed to address grading and stormwater issues during the engineering site plan phase. The city council approved the ordinance.
City Amends Alcoholic Beverage Permit Ordinance to Comply with State Law, Waives Certain Fees
The City Council considered and approved an ordinance related to the sale of alcoholic beverages, amending Chapter 7, Article 17 of the Lewisville City Code. This amendment clarifies the local alcoholic beverage permit application process and waives certain permit fees. This action is necessary to comply with recent changes in Texas state law that prevent municipalities from collecting permit fees from businesses that already hold a state or local food health permit. The city will continue to administer its local permitting and compliance processes but will no longer collect fees for these specific businesses.
Resident Raises Concerns About Data Center Stormwater Runoff and Water Quality
A resident, Mike Weston, addressed the council regarding the environmental impact of data centers, specifically focusing on water runoff and quality. He highlighted that data centers, with their large impervious surfaces, contribute significantly to stormwater runoff. He expressed concern that standard landscaping maintenance practices, such as blowing debris towards the curb, lead to organic material entering the storm drain system, which negatively impacts water quality in local creeks and Lake Louisville due to nutrient loads. Weston urged the council to include stormwater quality in the evaluation of data center proposals, specifically by requiring organic debris to be kept on-site, exploring the use of the MS4 permit framework to address commercial landscaping debris, and calculating the true downstream costs of hosting such facilities.
Special Use Permit Amended for Automobile Sales and Leasing at Fairway Business Park
The City Council considered an ordinance to amend an existing special use permit (SUP) to allow automobile sales and leasing at 1504 Eagle Court, located in the Fairway Business Park, zoned Light Industrial. The business, Under Over Racing LLC, currently operates as a go-kart part supplier and repair service. The proposed amendment would permit automobile sales and leasing in addition to existing automobile repair minor uses. The site is a multi-tenant building, and all activities would need to occur indoors due to restrictions on outside storage or display. Previous SUPs for the site only allowed automobile repair minor, not sales. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended unanimous approval. The council approved the ordinance.

The bids were downloaded from Bonfire, with nine bids received. 4-Star Excavating was recommended as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Funding is available in the Valley Vista Drainage Improvements Capital Project.
