Ministry seeks zoning change to build apartment

The Planning and Zoning Commission approved a zoning change for the United Campus Ministry from Public to Character District - 5 in a request by Pastor Todd Salmi. City staff presented the application and recommended approval of the zoning change, which is accompanied by an alternative compliance for a six-story building height.

The property is .93 acres and located just south of Texas State University between three streets: Woods Street, North Guadalupe Street and North LBJ Drive. The current use of the property is to house the Christ Chapel and United Campus Ministry. The proposed use would be mixed use development with religious ministry on the first floor and multifamily above. The property is located across the street from the new TXST hotel site.
