Sign Variance - Institutional — variance
An applicant is requesting three variances from Sherman's zoning standards for an existing institutional sign on an R-6 property: to allow a 2.2-foot setback (versus the required 5 feet), 8.5-foot height (versus 8 feet), and 114.75 square feet area (versus 32 square feet). The sign occupies the historical location of a predecessor sign and does not create visibility or safety concerns.
Legacy Title - Church SUP — Church or other place of worship
The property owner is requesting a Specific Use Permit to allow a Church or place of worship at 4100 North Travis Street in an R-6 Single-Family Residential District. The request also includes variances for setback, height, and sign square footage for a freestanding sign. Staff recommends approval of the site plan and SUP, but has no recommendation on the variance component.
811 Northeast - R6 to R4 — rezoning
A property owner is requesting to rezone 811 North East Street from R-6 (Single-Family Residential) with College Park Overlay to R-4 (Patio Home Residential) with College Park Overlay, along with a variance request. A similar variance request at this property was previously denied in August 2021 for lot width and area standards.
303 West Cherry - Bed and Breakfast — Bed and Breakfast
The applicant is requesting site plan approval and a variance to allow a Bed and Breakfast operation at 303 West Cherry Street in the C-O (Office) district. Staff recommends denying the variance because the proposed building roof would overhang into both the platted alley and neighboring property, creating an encroachment issue.
C&N Services - Site Plan — site_plan
C & N Services, LLC is seeking site plan approval and a setback variance for storage structures at 410 East Brockett Street in the College Park Overlay district. The applicant has modified portable storage containers with siding to comply with architectural requirements, and is now requesting approval of the modified structures and variance relief for their placement and setback.
Freestanding Sign Variance — variance
This case involves a variance request to allow a freestanding sign that exceeds the standard 32 square feet allowed under Sherman's zoning code, permitting instead a 114.75 square foot sign. The approval or denial of this variance will affect signage standards and visibility for the subject property.
College Park - Variance — variance
A variance is being requested to allow a screened metal structure in the College Park Overlay District instead of meeting standard building design requirements under Section 14.03.006. This decision will establish precedent for design flexibility in this designated overlay district and may affect similar future requests.
Storage Containers - Variance — variance
This variance request seeks to allow permanently placed portable storage containers in the College Park Overlay District's C-2 commercial zone, which currently prohibits them under Section 14.10.001. Approval would permit commercial operators in this area to use portable storage as a permanent fixture, potentially affecting property aesthetics and land use compatibility in the overlay district.
3901 West Houston Street — Radio or television broadcasting transmitter or tower, microwave relay tower
A rezoning request from R-6 Residential to C-2 Commercial for property at 3901 West Houston Street to allow a radio/television broadcasting tower with associated height and setback variances. The item has been tabled to the August 18, 2026 P&Z meeting, so this is not being decided at the July 21, 2026 hearing.
Portable Storage Containers - Variance — Permanently placed portable storage containers
A variance is being sought under Section 14.10.001 to permit permanently placed portable storage containers within the C-2 General Commercial District, subject to the College Park Overlay District provisions. This case will determine whether storage container use will be allowed in this commercial area, potentially affecting development economics for commercial projects utilizing temporary or semi-permanent storage solutions.
2025-150 — Chase Bank branch with drive-through ATM
This site plan approval for a new 3,400 sq ft Chase Bank branch with attached drive-through ATM at FM 1417 & Aston Drive affects a 1.02-acre pad site within a larger master-planned commercial development. The project includes associated parking, landscaping, and signage, with all infrastructure and utilities being provided by the master developer.
2110 Jeremy Circle - Variance — Carport with reduced structure separation
Owner is requesting a variance to allow 2' structure separation instead of the required 5' for a proposed carport at 2110 Jeremy Circle in an R-1 district. The property has a history of approved setback/separation variances dating to 1992 and 2003. Staff has made no recommendation on this variance request.
223 West Pelton Street — rezoning
This rezoning request from R-6 single-family to R-2F duplex residential at 223 West Pelton Street was previously heard and denied (both the variance and zone change were rejected 5/0 and 6/0 respectively in May 2026). The case is being reheard on July 21, 2026, with staff again recommending denial, so the project faces significant regulatory headwinds.
Monopole-105ft — variance
A variance is being sought to allow a 105-foot tall monopole, exceeding the standard 70-foot height limit allowed under Section 14.04.005. This case may impact developers considering telecommunications or utility infrastructure projects in Sherman.
College Park - Screened Metal Structure Variance — variance
A variance is being requested under Section 14.03.006 to allow a screened metal structure instead of complying with the required building design standards in the College Park Overlay District. This case affects development standards for structures in the overlay district and may be relevant if you are planning projects in that area.
26-1036 — Weight room (academic/athletic facility)
Austin College is proposing to construct a new weight room building on campus that will require site plan review, tree protection measures, landscape buffers, and screening to comply with the College Park Overlay District.

The project involves approximately 20 contractor vehicle pickups daily plus 5 bulk product deliveries per week on 40-foot trucks, with loading dock operations during standard business hours (Monday-Friday, 7am-4:30pm).
29-2010 — Pebblebrook Village - Townhomes and Apartments
This case involves a final plat creating one lot from a previously unplatted tract in an R-2 zoned area for Pebblebrook Village, a mixed-use development with townhomes and apartments. The project includes three building types (townhomes and apartments) plus a clubhouse, with buildings up to 45 feet tall on property located at FM 1417 and Groner Road. The development is situated outside the 500-year flood zone and will require compliance with landscaping, drainage, and design standards for the multi-family residential district.
26-1056 — Sherman Chevrolet Quick Lube
This is a final plat approval for a replat of two existing lots into one lot at 606 East Lamberth Road, creating a 1.990-acre parcel zoned C-2 General Commercial for Sherman Chevrolet Quick Lube. The property has prior approvals for vehicle repair/body work and metal building materials, with staff recommending approval of the final plat.
21-2026 — Sherman Lakes Development
This case involves a large 183.681-acre property on Tate Circle requested to be rezoned from Residential Agricultural to Planned Development for the Sherman Lakes Development project. If approved, this significant rezoning could substantially impact land use patterns and development potential in the area's extra-territorial jurisdiction.
24-2026 — variance
NNN REIT, Inc. is seeking a variance to erect a 65-foot tall pylon sign on a 13.91-acre property zoned M-1 Light Manufacturing on South Sam Rayburn Freeway, which exceeds the standard 50-foot height limitation. This variance request will be heard by the Board of Adjustment and could set precedent for signage height allowances in the area.
21-268 — Commercial, retail, multi-family, and data center uses
A 165-acre property on West Travis Street is seeking rezoning from mixed C-1/R-6 to a Planned Development district with C-2 base zoning to allow commercial, retail, multi-family, and data center uses by right. This large-scale mixed-use development could significantly impact land use patterns in the western Sherman area and represents a shift from the current retail and residential classifications.

The project accommodates an existing cluster of industrial and commercial uses (auto sales/repair, warehousing, construction offices, etc.) that are already operating within the park. Developers should note this rezoning regularizes existing industrial uses and establishes a framework for future compatible industrial development in this established commercial corridor.

Staff recommends approval with no objections.
