Weingarten Realty won big at Thursday's Planning Commission hearing - according to Swamplot.com, the retroactive variance was grantedWeingarten made a few concessions for the neighborhood including shortening the balcony seating area (to only 30 inches over the setback), and lowering tiny signage and removing the LED lights on the west side of the building. Swamplot also reminds us that homeowners living along the back side of the new parking garage (on Brentwood Dr.) signed an agreement to keep quiet (to not complain) about the whole situation. Why they opted to do this, no one knows. The video of the January 8th Planning Commission meeting can be seen here. The River Oaks Shopping Center variance starts about 20 seconds in to the "Platting Activity Section H Item 57" section (just after the Director's report) and is presented by Dipti Mathur.

A few days ago we wrote about the upcoming retroactive variance request from Weingarten Realty - the hearing was yesterday, but has now been rescheduled for January 8 at 2:30 pm.
