Cleburne planners weigh rezoning 63 acres near Amazon for industrial development

Cleburne's Planning and Zoning Commission meets Monday to consider one main land-use decision that could reshape a large vacant tract on the city's west side. - Residents can speak at a public hearing on a request by KBC Advisors to rezone about 62.79 acres on the north side of County Road 1125 (Industrial Boulevard), roughly a quarter-mile west of Chisholm Trail Parkway, from agricultural to industrial zoning. - If approved, the land could be developed as warehouses, logistics and distribution centers, or advanced manufacturing — similar to the Amazon facility already operating to the south. - The city's Future Land Use Plan calls for residential and mixed-use development on this site, so the requested industrial zoning does not match that plan, though staff notes nearby land has already been rezoned industrial. - A previous attempt to rezone this same property as a Planned Development was denied by City Council in April 2026. - No letters of opposition had been received as of the agenda posting. - The commission will also vote to approve minutes from the September 14 meeting. The meeting begins at 4:45 p.m. with a study session, followed by the regular session at 5:00 p.m., at City Hall, 10 N. Robinson St. The public may speak at the rezoning hearing.
