A public hearing is scheduled for the next Cuero City Council meeting on December 9, regarding the zoning waiver for the child advocacy group Norma’s House to open an office at 1105 Hunt Street.
“We’re hoping that it will be okay,” Deane Novosad, executive director of Norma’s House, said. “We’ve already put a lot of work into this house.”
Residents in the neighborhood took exception to the non-profit’s new location at the October city council meeting. After the organization moved in and put a sign in the front yard, neighbors called into question whether a commercial business was authorized to open in a residential neighborhood. A petition was circulated and neighbors worried that home values could be negatively affected.
