The details
The permit applies to a 31.97-acre tract at the southeast corner of Hwy. 105 and FM 2854, according to city documents. The drive-thru will be located on the east side of the building with vehicle stacking positioned toward the rear of the store, staff told council.
City officials said the drive-thru will not impact traffic flow on Hwy. 105. The Planning and Zoning Commission previously reviewed the request and recommended approval.
No residents spoke during the public hearing held at the Sept. 9 meeting before council approved the request unanimously.
What you should know
H-E-B is set to build its Montgomery store by late 2026, with about 16.75 acres dedicated to the grocery store itself, as reported.
The project will also feature a gas station and car wash. A feasibility study completed in May 2024 estimated that the development would bring in roughly $45,600 in property tax revenue each year, while requiring about $140,000 in public infrastructure costs.
As part of the site plan, a detention pond is planned with design elements to reflect a “Texan feel,” Mayor Sara Countryman said in an April interview with Community Impact.
