SP2026-012 — 12,000-square-foot retail strip center in Rockwall, TX
This site plan request for a 3.8-acre retail strip center was denied without prejudice due to 12 identified variances and exceptions that fall significantly short of the 24 required compensatory measures. The applicant faces substantial rework of building elevations, landscape plans, treescape plans, and design details to comply with overlay district standards and City development code before resubmission.
