SUP23-0003 — Helistop use for "drone" delivery services (DroneUp) from within the Walmart parking lot in The Colony, TX
Walmart is seeking a Specific Use Permit to operate a Helistop for DroneUp drone delivery services in its parking lot at a high-visibility SH 121/Main Street retail site. Relevant to developers monitoring drone-delivery logistics infrastructure on retail properties, as it may set a local precedent for helistop/drone uses within the General Retail and Gateway Overlay context. The underlying GR zoning is unchanged; only the special use approval is at issue.
