Regular Council Meeting
The Freeport City Council met on May 22, 2025, and approved three major items: the consent agenda (bills, minutes, and financial reports), a financial audit showing the city in strong financial condition with no compliance issues, and authorization to close on the purchase of the Lucky Star Property. The council also approved the Carr Mixed Use Planned Development Project, a large 3,319.7-acre development with single-family and multifamily housing, commercial and industrial space. The project includes requests for variances including 4-story heights for residential buildings, 5-foot setbacks, and no minimum lot sizes; the council approved these with conditions requiring that higher buildings be clustered together in similar phases for consistency and privacy protection.
