What can I build on this property?
It depends on the zoning district. Melissa's Revised Zoning Ordinance establishes the A, SF-1, SF-2, SF-3, TH, MF, MH, C-1, C-2, I-1 and I-2 base districts (Sec. 3), plus the PD Planned Development District, the DOD Downtown Overlay District and the CC/O Commercial Corridor Overlay District (Sec. 18). The Schedule of Uses in Sec. 20 marks every use permitted by right (X), permitted only with a Specific Use Permit (S), or prohibited (blank) for each district. Start by confirming the zoning district on the city's zoning map (cityofmelissa.com/194/Zoning) or with Development Services at 972-838-2036. This pack covers incorporated Melissa only; the ETJ and unincorporated Collin County land have no municipal zoning.
