Seguin council gives first approval to church parking rezoning

A vacant Goodrich Street parcel moved one step closer to becoming church parking, while nearby residents await a final zoning decision and a separate permit.

Seguin’s City Council approved on first reading a proposed zoning change for the vacant property at 634 S. Goodrich Street on Nov. 3.

The neighboring church at 408 W. Shelby Street proposes to expand its parking onto the Goodrich Street parcel. The first-reading approval advances that plan, but it does not finish the zoning process or grant permission to build the lot.

From the source record

Zoning proposal634 S. Goodrich Street
The City Council approved on first reading a zoning change from single-family residential to public for the vacant property
Seguin City Council verified outcome review ↗
The verified review describes first-reading approval, not a final rezoning or parking permit.

The parcel and proposal

The staff report identifies the vacant parcel as property ID 13351 and measures it at 0.1277 acre, or 5,562 square feet. It sits directly east of the church property. The requested change would move the parcel from single-family residential zoning to public zoning. Those details define the land under review; they do not describe an approved construction plan.

Seguin’s Planning and Zoning Commission approved the zoning request on Oct. 13. The council’s Nov. 3 action was its first reading. The staff report also cites earlier lot-size and depth variances for the property; those variances are background to the request, not a substitute for the remaining approvals.

What comes next

City staff says a separate specific use permit is required for the parking lot after rezoning. The next records to check are the council’s final-reading ordinance and any specific use permit disposition. Together, they will show whether the zoning change becomes final and whether the proposed parking use receives its separate approval.
