Executive Summary
The subject property is located at 1502 Holbrook Road, approximately 390' south of Austin Highway. The property is situated between Holbrook Road and Harlow Drive with an alley way to the south and a large commercial lot to the north. The applicant states the pattern of crime has increased within the area and wishes to install a 6' tall wrought iron fence along the front property line on Holbrook Road. The Austin Highway/Harry Wurzbach Metropolitan Corridor District does not regulate fence above what the Unified Development Code requires.
During field visits, staff noted that the subject property abuts an area of apartment communities and commercial lots along Harlow Drive. To the west along Holbrook Road, there is the Salado Creek and Greenway that prohibits development.
