Summary of Proceedings

February 11, 2026 San Antonio Planning Commission Meeting

The San Antonio Planning Commission met on February 11, 2026, at 2:00 PM. All nine commissioners were present, establishing a quorum. The meeting included a consent calendar and two individual hearing items regarding amendments to the South Central San Antonio Community Plan.

Consent Calendar

  • All items except 7 and 8 on the consent agenda were approved unanimously with no discussion.

Discussion Items

Item 7: 206 West Heart Avenue – Plan Amendment from Low Density Residential to Community Commercial

  • Staff Recommendation: Denial, citing inconsistency with surrounding residential uses and potential commercial encroachment. 22 notices were mailed; 0 in favor, 0 opposed within 200 feet; St. Leo's Neighborhood Association gave no response.
  • Applicant Testimony: Patrick Christensen, representing Gonzaba Medical Group, requested approval to allow a one-story medical clinic expansion with an ambulance turnaround. He stated the council office had indicated no further expansion beyond these properties. Mr. Christensen offered to accept a Neighborhood Commercial designation instead of Community Commercial.
  • Commission Discussion: Commissioners asked about access, buffers, and the nature of the medical use (outpatient clinic, not a hospital). The applicant clarified there would be no access from West Heart Avenue and that the building would be at the rear of the lot with appropriate setbacks and landscaping.
  • Motion and Vote: A motion to approve as amended to Neighborhood Commercial passed. The roll call vote was: 8 commissioners voted Yes (Profit, Siegel, Sanchez, De Succi, Lopez, Milam, Orion, Peck). Commissioner Bustamante responded "All right" (interpreted as approval).

Item 8: 347 West Sayers Avenue – Plan Amendment from Low Density Residential to Community Commercial

  • Staff Recommendation: Denial, similar rationale as Item 7. 27 notices were mailed; 0 in favor, 1 opposed within 200 feet; St. Leo's Neighborhood Association gave no response.
  • Applicant Testimony: Patrick Christensen again represented Gonzaba Medical Group. The property, currently vacant after demolition of a single-family home, is owned by Gonzaba and would be replatted for a medical clinic. The applicant agreed to amend the request to Neighborhood Commercial (C1S for medical clinic).
  • Commission Discussion: Commissioners noted the neighboring uses (multifamily and commercial) and supported the lower-intensity designation. The applicant confirmed there would be no vehicular access on West Sayers Avenue.
  • Motion and Vote: A motion to approve as amended to Neighborhood Commercial passed. The roll call vote was: 8 commissioners voted Yes (Profit, Sanchez, De Succi, Lopez, Milam, Orion, Siegel, Peck). Commissioner Bustamante responded "I" (interpreted as abstention).

Director's Report

  • Effective April 1, 2026, the Planning Commission will no longer accept voicemail as a method for public participation in meetings.
  • In response to a commissioner's inquiry, staff noted they would investigate the status of commissioner reappointments and report back.

Key Outcomes

  • Consent agenda approved.
  • Both land use plan amendments (Items 7 & 8) were approved, but modified from Community Commercial to Neighborhood Commercial (C1S) designations.
  • The Planning Commission announced a change to public participation procedures (ending voicemail submissions as of April 1, 2026).
  • Staff to follow up on the status of Planning Commission member reappointments.
