Seguin’s Planning and Zoning Commission approved a specific use permit for a driving range at 2711 State Highway 46 North on Oct. 13, subject to three staff conditions. The approval is recorded in the city’s official meeting outcome for SUP-0426.
For nearby residents, the permit requires proposed lighting to be shielded and directed inward, landscaping along eligible Highway 46 frontage, and tee boxes in the locations shown on the site plan. The staff report specifies one tree and two shrubs per 100 feet of frontage, excluding the existing business and the 100-year floodplain.

Any proposed lighting must be shielded and aimed inward toward the range, away from adjacent residences and rights-of-way, for the lessening of light pollution.City of Seguin Planning and Zoning Commission agenda materials ↗
The 36.339-acre property has previously been used as a driving range, according to the staff report. The applicant proposes using the existing tee box locations. City staff also identified nearby residential uses and said the conditions were intended to limit effects on surrounding properties.
The approval establishes permission for the specified use under those conditions; it does not establish an opening date. Residents can inspect the site plan and the exact conditions in the city’s SUP 04-26 agenda materials as the project proceeds.
