The San Marcos City Council voted to postpone the zoning of a proposed RV and boat storage facility, adjacent to the Blanco River and Interstate 35.
Due to the Planning and Zoning Commission’s recommended denial of the zoning change from Community Commercial District to Heavy Commercial District, the council would have needed a supermajority to approve the rezoning.
“Our concern is that heavy commercial use allows for things we don t want out on the river or out on the interstate,” Mayor Jane Hughson said.
The request for heavy commercial zoning would not include any kind of special restrictions to mitigate the councilmembers’ concerns; fluid and oil runoff from the RVs and boats that would be washed into the river, or that the vehicles themselves may be swept away in a flood.
