With two new subdivisions opened in 2021, residential lots are still be available. Two additional subdivisions are
currently requesting zoning approval, which could potentially add close to 60 lots. Thus, residential permitting
activities are expected to remain consistent. New commercial activity is expected to remain consistent as well, if not
increased, now that Colleyville Boulevard construction has been completed. The City has also purchased acreage along
Colleyville Boulevard in both the Northern Gateway and Southern Gateway. Interest in these areas indicates potential
new development to occur in the near future.

As the City approaches build out, currently estimated to occur by 2035 according to the current Master Plan estimate,
new residential activity has begun to decrease. Assuming current economic conditions remain static, land for new
residential subdivisions will signi cantly decrease, leaving only in ll and tear down & rebuild projects to build out.
Commercial activity will be more dif cult to predict. However, given that there remains limited undeveloped
commercial land in the City, in addition to numerous redevelopment opportunities for existing legacy properties,
commercial, as well as institutional, development opportunities should continue to avail themselves over the next ve
years and beyond. The reconstruction of Colleyville Boulevard (State Highway 26) is completed which will attract
commercial development and redevelopment.
Overall, the department will remain very busy over the next ve years and is in need of staf ng at a level
commensurate with community and organizational expectations to be able to adequately ful ll its mission to protect,
preserve and promote the exceptional and unique quality of the community’s built environment and natural
resources.
