Lytle Council Set to Weigh Budget, Manufactured Home Placement, and Water Interconnect Contract

Lytle's City Council and Manufactured Home Commission have several consequential items on recent agendas, but because minutes have not yet been published for any of the meetings held in the past two weeks, no outcomes, votes, or final decisions can be confirmed at this time. The following reflects what was scheduled for discussion and possible action, based on the agendas.

Manufactured Home Commission — July 6

The Lytle Manufactured Home Commission was scheduled to appoint a chairperson and then hold a public hearing on Chance Moorman's application to place a manufactured home at Lytle-San Antonio S/D Irrg Farms, Block 40, Lot 8-A, near Norvell Street and Wisdom Road. The commission was also set to take possible action on that same application. Minutes have not yet been published, so it is not yet known whether the appointment was made, the hearing was held, or the application was approved or denied.

City Council Special Meeting — July 9

The City Council was scheduled to hold a special meeting to review and provide direction on the budget for Fiscal Year 2026-2027. A budget presentation and discussion were the only items listed. No dollar figures or specific budget proposals were included in the agenda summary. Minutes have not been published, so no council direction or decisions can be confirmed.

City Council Regular Meeting — July 13

The July 13 City Council agenda included the most items with potential financial and land-use impact:

• **Manufactured home application:** A public hearing on Chance Moorman's application to place a manufactured home on Block 40, Lot 8-A — the same property considered by the Manufactured Home Commission on July 6.
• **Zoning variance:** A request for a 19-foot rear setback at 15392 Houston Street, instead of the standard 30 feet.
• **Community center renovation:** Resolution #26-32 for Kimley-Horn community center site renovations under Individual Project Order 25-13-005.
• **Hotel occupancy tax funds:** Resolution #26-33 allocating hotel occupancy tax funds for the Lytle 75th Anniversary event.
• **Emergency water interconnect:** Resolution #26-34 for Green CO Concrete & Utilities for an emergency water system interconnect, identified as CSB#2026-05-01.
• **Other items:** A water bill discrepancy and approval of minutes and bills.

No vote tallies, dollar amounts, or contract values were included in the agenda summary. Because minutes have not been published, it cannot be confirmed whether any of these resolutions passed, whether the variance was granted, or how the manufactured home application was handled.

What This Means for Residents

The items on these agendas touch property development near Norvell Street and Wisdom Road, a setback change on Houston Street, spending on a community center renovation, use of hotel occupancy tax revenue for a city anniversary event, and an emergency water system interconnect contract. Residents who want to know the outcomes should watch for the published minutes from the July 6, July 9, and July 13 meetings, which will record any votes taken.

Coming Up

No upcoming meetings are listed for the next 14 days (through August 3, 2026). Residents should check the City of Lytle's official postings for any special meetings that may be scheduled.
