Can I use this property for retail?
Look up the parcel on the official Leander zoning map to find its composite zoning designation (use component, site component, and architectural component, for example SFU-2-B). Retail generally requires a commercial use component (LC, GC, or similar) under art. III and the art. III, sec. 20 use matrix; the site component also limits building size and outdoor display. This pack is review gated; confirm the current ordinance text, overlays, planned development conditions, and the parcel's full composite designation with the Leander Planning Department (512-528-2733) before design, purchase, leasing, or permitting decisions. Leander zones only inside its city limits; ETJ and county parcels are outside city zoning jurisdiction and out of scope for this pack. Parcels in the TOD district follow the Leander SmartCode instead of the Composite Zoning Ordinance.
