Montopolis: Tract Height and Riverside Access Restrictions

Last reviewed September 17, 2026 · City of Austin planning documents · Kimbrough Gray · KiliGray Homes

Montopolis’s implementing zoning ordinance contains a height cap on two tracts and specific access restrictions at an East Riverside property. Corridor regulating-plan zoning and later parcel amendments must be checked before carrying those original conditions into a new project.

Applies to: Ordinance 010927-28 tract boundaries and later zoning, including ERC where mapped, determine applicability.

Send us an address and we will tell you what we find

We do this research ourselves on every project we take on — zoning, floodplain, watershed, trees, whether it is a legal lot. Send us an address and we will run it and tell you what we find. It works the same whether you own a vacant lot, a house you are thinking of adding a unit to, or a house you are thinking of replacing. No charge and no strings, and if it is a bad lot we will say so.

We are homebuilders, not the City of Austin. This page explains how we read the code in practice — it is not legal advice and it is not an official determination. Always confirm with Austin Development Services before you rely on it for a project. The authoritative text is the Austin Land Development Code; permitting questions go to Austin Development Services Department.
