Shepherd Place approved as newest US 75 development Herald Democrat Sherman cleared the way for its latest large-scale, multi-use development. The project, which would be built west of the intersection of Shepherd Drive and U.S. Highway 75 follows two along FM 1417 and a third near Travis Street and U.S. Hwy. 82. All of these developments are making use of the city's planned development zoning, which grants certain flexibility for larger-scale developments that will encompass a variety of uses and development types. "Part of the planned development regulations is to give developers some flexibility to do other things," Sherman Director of Development Services Rob Rae said.
