Check at the address, not the town name

• Compare Magnolia and South Main separately and walk the actual connections between the property and the village you expect to use.
• Consult the city’s Near Southside design rules and current street-project information before assuming that a proposed building change or access pattern is straightforward.
• School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
