"By right" means permitted with site plan and building permit review only. Overlay districts, planned developments (PD/PUD) and conditions attached to a past rezoning can change the answer for a single parcel.

Official zoning map layer

To find the district for a parcel, query the jurisdiction's own GIS zoning layer: https://services.arcgis.com/g1fRTDLeMgspWrYp/arcgis/rest/services/COSA_Zoning/FeatureServer/12 (district field: Zoning)

City of San Antonio zoning (COSA_Zoning layer 12, field Zoning = base + suffixes like CD, S, IDZ, PUD, NA, AHOD stripped). UDC Table 311-2 has no drive-through row: restaurants are 'Food Service Establishment'.

Permit and impact fees

Worked out from the adopted fee schedules linked below for three sample buildings. "Not found" means the schedule did not give a figure, not that the fee is zero.

One-time fee800 sf drive-thru coffee3,500 sf restaurant22,000 sf grocery
Building permit and plan review$1,748$4,244$17,045
Impact / mobility feesnot foundnot foundnot found

Total found so far$25,950$62,249$178,959

State road access: TxDOT Form 1058: no fee unless TxDOT owns the access rights. Allow 30-60 days (assumed).

Assumptions: SAWS impact fees dominate and depend on meter size (2 in = 14 EDUs) and service area; middle elevation and middle collection basin assumed. Fees in effect at plat recordation apply. SAWS meter/service line cost not captured yet. FILO assumes the site is not in a mandatory-detention area.

How to confirm before you buy

  1. Look up the parcel on the official zoning map to get its district and any overlay.
  2. Open the code section linked in the table and read the use table and the drive-thru standards.
  3. Call the planning office and ask whether a drive-thru restaurant needs anything beyond site plan review at that address.

Why this library exists

I'm Luke Smith. I find land for drive-thru brands like 7 Brew, Ellianos Coffee and Starbucks, sign the tenant, build the shop and sell it as a net lease property. Every deal starts with the same question: is the use allowed here without a rezoning? Getting that answer takes too long, so we read the codes (with AI research help), and I publish what we find with a link back to every source so you can check it yourself.

If you have a site that fits a drive-thru, or you want to learn how these deals are put together, join the free Reverse Deal Finder community on Skool, see cap rates and land prices by brand, or call 1-760-392-1525. Brokers welcome: I pay commissions.
