Alternative Standards for Commercial Redevelopment at 217 South Stemmons Freeway
Colonial Savings and Loan got two exceptions to the IH-35E corridor overlay rules so it can redevelop part of its lot into a bank branch — tighter driveway spacing and a deeper build-to zone to work around a Brazos Electric easement.

A proposal to rezone 2.730 acres from office district to planned development multi-family housing.
Annex Remodel Project
The city is moving forward with designing a major interior renovation of the 37-year-old City Hall Annex. The project will update worn finishes, add the L. James Kunke Heritage Collection in the lobby, modernize the municipal court, and convert a rental community room into a staff training suite.
Communication Infrastructure
A new cell tower is being built to improve local connectivity, with a minor site shift approved to avoid underground utility lines.
Five Star Ford Redevelopment
Five Star Ford wants to tear down its old buildings along I-35E and build a much larger, modern dealership with brick and stone finishes. Because the design doesn't meet every strict I-35 overlay rule, it needs special permission from the city.
Park Development
Lewisville's dropping a cool $100 million on its parks! Expect a huge facelift with new green spaces and awesome facilities coming soon.
Marina Redevelopment
Suntex Marinas is investing $70 million to completely overhaul Eagle Point Marina on Lewisville Lake, replacing old docks, cleaning up shoreline environmental hazards, and upgrading facilities over the next few years.
Boys & Girls Club Facility at 195 West Corporate Drive
The former city public safety facility is being repurposed into a Boys & Girls Club youth center. The project requires a zone change and a parking standard reduction to fit the site's existing layout.
Townhome Development Safety
Council members are worried that the proposed townhome layout at 421 South Cowan doesn't leave enough room for fire trucks to maneuver or for residents to park.
