ZTA-2026-07 — Drone Charging Location (primary or accessory use) in Roanoke, TX
The applicant seeks a text amendment to Planned Development Ordinance No. 1996-117 to add drone charging stations as a permitted primary or accessory use in Tract 13, subject to Specific Use Permit approval. The amendment would establish regulatory standards for drone charging locations, including minimum distance requirements from residential areas (100 feet), screening requirements (6-foot fence), and parking provisions. City Staff recommends approval, noting that case-by-case Specific Use Permit review allows for evaluation of individual proposals against development standards.
