Rezoning can increase your property’s potential and value, but it’s not a simple process. Let’s dive into the steps of rezoning in Texas and explore if it’s the right choice for your land.


1. Evaluate the Current Zoning and Its Restrictions Understanding your current zoning regulations is essential. Local zoning codes dictate permissible land uses, impacting how you can develop your property. Working with Hutson Land Planners, we assess if rezoning aligns with your property goals and area demands.


2. Research Compatible Zoning Options Identifying the zoning category that aligns with your development plans is critical. This choice will depend on your goals, whether they include residential expansion, commercial development, or mixed-use projects.


3. Prepare a Rezoning Application The application process requires extensive documentation, including plans, market analysis, and land use studies. We help prepare compelling applications to ensure the proposal’s strengths are well-communicated to local authorities.


4. Participate in Hearings and Public Reviews Rezoning requires navigating local hearings where public feedback plays a role. With our expertise, we guide clients through each stage, from preparing presentations to support in addressing community concerns.
