Ordinance Overview

The Sherman City Council will hold a public hearing on Ordinance No. 6953 during its July 20, 2026 meeting.

The agenda item introduces the proposed zoning amendment for review and potential adoption.

The proposal affects a 18.3788 acre tract located on the 5301 block of West Houston Street.

The land is part of the E.N. Deaver Survey, Abstract No. 358, within Grayson County.

Poufar Ventures holds ownership of the property, while Flexd Development, LLC filed the application. Kimley-Horn is listed as the surveyor.

Zoning Changes

The tract is currently classified under the R-A Residential Agriculture District.

The ordinance would place the land into the PD Planned Development District.

A base zoning of C-2 General Commercial would apply to the new classification.

The council will evaluate the public hearing testimony before voting on the measure.

The ordinance establishes a penalty not to exceed $2,000.00 for violations.

Final approval would trigger the rezoning and update the municipal code accordingly.
