The City of Boerne has approved the necessary permits for construction to begin on the next phase of the Boerne Town Center development, which will be anchored by the Sprouts Farmers Market grocery store.
The new retail space will be the second and final phase of the project along the I-10 West Frontage Road. The first phase included the retail space which now houses Chipotle, Chicken Salad Chick, and several other new businesses.
Phase 2 will be a total of 68,348 square feet of retail space, including Sprouts at 23,300 square feet and two adjacent spaces totaling 15,079 square feet and 29,969 square feet.
Boerne residents can expect to see work begin at the site in July following the final approval of the building permits submitted by the developer, Abiso Real Estate. Construction is expected to take one year to complete.
Tree Preservation and Mitigation
As part of the project, the developer will remove trees at the site. Texas state law does not allow cities to prevent the removal of trees by property owners, but cities can enforce a tree preservation ordinance, which can include tree mitigation fees to offset the removal of trees.

During the development process, the City works with property owners to inventory every tree at each site and explores ways to preserve existing trees by incorporating them into the plans.
“If preservation is not possible, then we focus on replanting at the site,” Planning Director Nathan Crane said. “If preservation and replanting at the site are not possible, we will then utilize tree mitigation to ensure Boerne retains and expands its tree canopy long term.”
As part of the project’s Phase 2, the developer will pay the City of Boerne $704,000 in tree mitigation fees. The total paid to the City for both phases is just over $2 million.
“The tree mitigation fund can be used in several ways, including the replacement of what is being lost in the tree canopy by planting new trees on City-owned property, such as the new park,” Crane said. “That is the most important use and the primary goal of the fund.”
The money can also be used for projects associated with replanting, such as irrigation to support the new trees. Funds can be used to address hazard trees or the prevention, treatment, or removal of trees impacted by oak wilt. The City can also use the funds to support tree giveaways, which can then be planted on private property.
