Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan Adopted 2024

PREFERRED GROWTH SCENARIO

Neighborhood Centers: Neighborhood Centers are small, walkable, mixed-use areas that provide convenient access to goods, services, and dining for nearby residents. These areas are characterized by smaller commercial centers that are walkable and typically located near neighborhoods providing residents with convenient, safe, and equitable access to services. They should be concentrated to small geographies as indicated on the Preferred Growth Scenario Map on the following page. The primary place types comprising neighborhood centers include Mixed Use Low; Neighborhood Medium; Commercial/Employment Low; and Neighborhood Transition. Seven neighborhood centers are included in the Preferred Growth Scenario and are briefly described below.

Riverway Avenue and Cotter Avenue has minimal development occuring today, with increased development in recent years and anticipated in the future. Existing uses include a multi-family apartment complex and two auto dealerships with nearby office and warehouse uses. Place Types include Commercial/Employment Medium, Mixed Use Medium, and Neighborhood High.

Mill Street and Uhland Road is an area that is mostly built out today with a combination of commercial, single-family residential, and multi family residential uses. There are opportunities for infill and some strategic redevelopment. Place Types include Mixed Use Low and Medium, Neighborhood Low, Medium and High, and Neighborhood Transition.

North LBJ Drive and Sessom Drive includes commercial development and multi-family residential development. Place Types include Mixed Use Low and Medium, Commercial/Employment Low, and Neighborhood Low, Medium and High. As part of Vision SMTX, the community is developing a Neighborhood Area Plan for this area.
