All meetings below are listed as agenda-only — minutes have not yet been published, so no outcomes, votes, or dollar figures beyond what appears on the agendas can be confirmed.

No specific actions or votes are listed for the executive session.
Planning and Zoning Commission — July 6, 2026
The commission scheduled a public hearing on amendments to Chapter 9 of the City of Anna Code of Ordinances, which covers Planning and Development Regulations. No details on the substance of the amendments are included in the agenda summary.
The commission was also set to consider several replats, site plans, and final plats:
- Anna Elementary No. 3, Block 1, Lot 1, Replat (RP 26-0006).
- Leonard Commercial, Block A, Lot 1, Preliminary Site Plan (PSP 26-0009).
- Shadowbend Commercial, Block A, Lot 7, Replat (RP 26-0007).
- Liberty Hills, Phase 3 and Phase 4, Final Plats (FP 26-0009, FP 26-0010).
Because minutes have not been published, it is not yet known which of these items were approved, tabled, or continued.
What this means for residents
The Willow Creek Addition Phase 1B incentive agreement and the Liberty Hills public improvement district assessment plans are the items most likely to affect city finances and resident costs. The water easement along State Highway 5 and the County Road 423 engineering contract relate to infrastructure residents use day to day. The Chapter 9 amendments taken up by Planning and Zoning could shape how future development is reviewed in Anna.
Coming up
No upcoming meetings are listed for the next 14 days. The next publicly noted date is the August 11, 2026 public hearing on the Liberty Hills Public Improvement District, if the council's July 14 resolution calling that hearing is adopted.
