San Antonio City Council Zoning Meeting - June 4, 2026

This meeting of the San Antonio City Council was held on June 4, 2026, at 2:03 PM, with Acting Mayor Jones presiding. The council took up a consent agenda and several postponed items, after hearing public comments on multiple zoning and land-use proposals.

Consent Calendar

• The consent agenda included items 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 13. No council member requested an individual hearing for any consent item.
• A motion to approve the remaining consent agenda items was made, seconded, and passed unanimously.

Public Comments & Testimony

• Jack Finger spoke on items 9, 1, 2, 3, and 12. He expressed strong opposition to item 9 (three housing units on a small property in District 3), noting that 29 notices were sent, 10 neighbors opposed (more than one-third), 10 additional people appeared to object, and the Highland Park Neighborhood Association and the Zoning Commission (5 members) also opposed. He also opposed item 1 (a car lot on Basi Street), item 3 (a tattoo and earring studio), and item 12 (a paint workshop on Calhan Street), citing noise and odor concerns for nearby residents.
• A speaker (possibly Maria) addressed the consent agenda item for a property at 1315 Bassy Road (car lot), stating it is an extension of a business operating there for 10 years and that other lots in the area have similar uses. The speaker was reminded that their point was part of the consent agenda.
• Another resident (property owner) spoke against a rezoning proposal (likely item 9 or related) that they said would dramatically impact residents of Poland Park and surrounding areas, increasing traffic and requiring mitigation for water runoff, noise, electricity, and drainage. The speaker suggested the property be donated to the city for a park or a plant nursery instead.
• Jasmine Herrera appeared to speak on items 10 and 11 (also part of the consent agenda) but no details of her testimony were provided.
