Commission discusses annexations of 1,081.30 acres for the CVMR refinery and 1,158.57 acres for the Producer Owned Beef plant
Staff brought two owner-initiated annexation requests with proposed zoning plans to the commission for comment: 1,081.30 acres near U.S. Highway 60 and Parsley Road (applicant the AEDC), associated with the announced CVMR critical minerals refinery, and 1,158.57 acres near Spur 228 and U.S. Highway 287 (applicants the City of Amarillo and Producer Owned Beef, LLC), associated with the announced Producer Owned Beef meat packing plant. Staff said both tracts were in the Rural category of the Future Land Use Map but suited to industrial development, and that zoning them with the annexation would save the developers about eight weeks. A commissioner asked whether zoning the CVMR land Heavy Industrial would leave the City without a say over its use; staff said uses allowed in the district would proceed through site plan review.[1]

For the 1,158.57-acre tract near Spur 228 and U.S. Highway 287, staff said that although the Future Land Use Map placed it in the Rural category, the two major transportation corridors on both sides and the BNSF main line along its south side made it well suited to manufacturing and industrial uses, and that development plans for the rest of the tract beyond the Producer Owned Beef plant were not known. For the 1,081.30-acre tract, staff said it adjoined the city limits on the west and that the adjacent rights-of-way along the south side by the airport would also be annexed. [1]
