ON THE AGENDAHouston City Council · 2026-07-21

The City Council is designating both sides of the 4800 block of Redbud Street, between Calhoun Road and Coffee Street, as a Special Minimum Lot Size Block under Houston's development code (Chapter 42). This sets a minimum lot size standard for that specific block based on the existing lot sizes there.

What it means for you

Property owners on this block who want to subdivide their land would have to meet a minimum lot size tied to the existing lots on the block, limiting how small new lots can be. This primarily affects residents and property owners on the 4800 block of Redbud Street in District D.

Outcome

On the July 21, 2026 council agenda. Outcome pending minutes processing.
