Round Rock clarifies authority over Zipline delivery hubs

The Texas city says Zipline's first hub at 3000 E. Palm Valley Blvd. sits in its extraterritorial jurisdiction. Its zoning ordinances do not specifically address drone hubs, and an in-city location is under discussion.

Federal flight permissions and municipal ground-facility siting have different boundaries.

The city describes a roughly three-mile eligible service area according to Zipline, not citywide coverage. Confirm address eligibility and official siting proceedings.
