On June 23rd, the San Antonio Zoning Commision has denied the requested zoning change to the chome-plating facility located on the southeast side of East Southcross Boulevard near Roosevelt Avenue. The company involved in chrome-plating was seeking a zoning change to bring their business into compliance. Chrome-plating, a heavy industry requiring dangerous chemicals, will not be allowed in this area of San Antonio.
Following are excerpts from the city record of the Zoning Commission Hearing.
CASE NO: Z2010045
The subject property is located within the South Central Community Plan. The requested zoning change is inconsistent with the Future Land Use Plan, which designates the subject property as "Mixed Use". The requested zoning will require amending the plan to a "Heavy Industrial" land use designation.

Rezoning near Roosevelt Park
A neighbor inquired Micah Diaz of the Planning & Development Services Department regarding the appearance of yellow "Rezoning" signs around Roosevelt Park. This is Ms. Diaz's response.
The Roosevelt Avenue corridor (from just north of Mission Road to Loop
410 in the south) is the subject of two City-initiated zoning cases,
Z2009134 and Z2009135.
Many of the properties along this section of Roosevelt have intense
commercial and industrial zoning. The goal of the rezoning effort is to
apply zoning districts to this corridor that continue to allow
commercial development, but to do so in a more controlled manner. This
is zoning case Z2009134.
Additionally, the City is applying an overlay zoning district to the
Roosevelt corridor, called "MC-1" Metropolitan Corridor Overlay
District-1. This overlay district will implement some design standards
for new construction (including materials, landscaping, signage,
screening, and lighting guidelines). This is zoning case Z2009135.

Roosevelt Avenue Metro Corridor Overlay
What is Roosevelt Avenue to you?
Everyone with a stake in the future of Roosevelt Avenue is being called upon by the City's Planning and Development Services Department to answer this question.
With the new multi-use public library development at the Mission Drive-In site as a catalyst, the Department, in cooperation with District 3 City Councilwoman Jennifer Ramos, is bringing community residents and business owners together and forming a planning committee to discuss infrastructure priorities, as well as short-term and long-term reinvestment strategies for the corridor, stretching from the first block of Roosevelt Avenue, near Roosevelt Park, south to Loop 410.
If there is enough community will and if good, practical ideas are brought to the table, zoning for the corridor can be addressed to help steer future development in directions we, the community, think are most appropriate. This includes infrastructure but also overall aesthetics, and the even the types of businesses allowed to locate on Roosevelt Avenue. This is a project with a long-term view, and new zoning rules will affect future development, not existing properties.
There are representatives from the area neighborhood associations on the planning committee, so if you have thoughts, ideas or concerns, please get ahold of your neighborhood association. If you would like to be a member of the planning committee, either contact your neighborhood association, or Michael Taylor at the Neighborhoods & Urban Design Section of the City's Planning & Development Services Department, at 1901 S. Alamo, phone number 210.207.0145.
