After proclaiming the City of Cuero a Tourism Friendly Community, City Council went into a lengthy executive session at its special meeting on December 19. Upon resuming an open meeting, council approved the conditional use permit, with conditions, for Norma’s House at 1105 N. Hunt Street.
The three conditions included: 1) no signage; 2) the hours of operation of Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and 3) follow maximum occupancy requirements of the Cuero Fire Department.
The vote brings to a close three months of limbo for Norma’s House. The child advocacy agency, which serves Gonzales, Lavaca and DeWitt counties, was waiting for approval of their request for a conditional use permit before starting to see DeWitt County children in the new office.
