CITY TO ONCE-AGAIN CONSIDER BLINN VARIANCE REQUEST

  

The Brenham City Board of Adjustments will once-again consider a request concerning housing at Blinn College – a request they’ve already approved.

At the board’s February 8th meeting they approved a height variance request for a new $32-million housing project on the Blinn campus.

However, the board will once-again consider the request because of a self-locking door at city hall.

Officials say the meeting went longer than expected with the building’s self-locking doors activating, which meant someone who may have opposed the request could have been locked out.

City Developmental Services Coordinator Eric Smith says the item was reposted for this Monday’s meeting to make sure there are no potential conflicts.

The board meets this evening (Monday) at 5:15 at city hall.

  1. Hilarious! If the city planning department can’t plan for a longer meeting and locking doors, what does that mean for their planning for the city itself?

  2. I hope the Board of Adjustments Re-Adjusts Their Decision Since this Was OBVIOUSLY Previously Approved WITHOUT PROPER COORDINATION From The COORDINATOR!!
    A Qualified Coordinator would INFORM the Board of Adjustments That A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERED TRAFFIC STUDY Should Be Performed PRIOR TO THIS APPROVAL. A RECOMMENDATION From The Development Services Coordinator To Approve This WITHOUT A TRAFFIC STUDY Shows A Lack Of City Planning Knowledge And Forethought.
