A community workshop will take place Wednesday where residents can help provide feedback regarding a Second City Regional Area Plan.
The second city center would be located east of Interstate 35 near the intersection of Rattler Road and McCarty Lane. The Second City Center Regional Plan is a part of the citywide Vision SMTX Comprehensive Plan process, which began in 2020 and is near completion. According to the city’s Vision SMTX website, the city heard from the community that they “envision this area as a dense place with diverse housing opportunities, jobs to support residents, and amenities, services, parks and businesses within walking or biking distance.”
The city said the Regional Area Plan will address multiple topics including land use, urban design, transportation, connectivity, parks, equity, affordability, sustainability, technology, community amenities and infrastructure.
