The first item on 4 00:00:11,699 --> 00:00:16,000 our agenda is clarification of agenda items, if any. 5 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,589 Who is going to be running that? Should I call upon someone 6 00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:30,000 ? 7 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,710 Yeah, I'll go ahead and do that.

Can you just refresh us on the status of Mills 16 00:00:59,969 --> 00:01:04,250 Road there? It's a collector's street now, I believe, and 17 00:01:04,250 --> 00:01:07,760 is going to remain one? Or if there's going to be any 18 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,000 improvements? 19 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,040 I can't speak absolutely to that, but I have not heard any 20 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,000 mention of widening that at this time. They are widening 21 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:16,000 Mayhill. 22 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,000 Right. 23 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,280 But I have heard no mention of doing anything of that sort 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,000 to Mills Road. 25 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,219 Okay, so no information as to we'd get maybe a right turn 26 00:01:23,219 --> 00:01:26,000 lane on Mills Road going on to the new Mayhill? 27 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,000 I can't speak to that. 28 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000 Okay. All right. I thought I'd try. Thanks. 29 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000 Commissioner Ellis. 30 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,000 You have questions on this item? 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,819 I do. Oh, not this item. Sorry, Sean. No. But I do on the 32 00:01:38,819 --> 00:01:40,000 next consent agenda. 33 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,099 Is there any more questions on this item? Perfect. 34 00:01:45,099 --> 00:01:46,000 Commissioner Ellis. 35 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000 Thank you. Haley? 36 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,549 Yes. Haley, my question is the way number, the note number 37 00:01:59,549 --> 00:02:03,549 seven is written. So it states the drainage easement is 38 00:02:03,549 --> 00:02:08,000 maintained by the lots that traverse and are adjacent to? 39 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,000 Correct. 40 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,840 Okay, so does that include the lot that's adjacent below 41 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,000 that's not part of this plot? 42 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,000 And if it does, do they know that? 43 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,099 And if it doesn't, then my suggestion would we need to 44 00:02:23,099 --> 00:02:25,000 clarify the line. 45 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Let me pull that up here so we can all see. 46 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,840 Yes, so this is a standard note required in our criteria 47 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,000 manual to be on plats and what it is referring to is 48 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,689 whichever lot the drainage easement is on is the lot that 49 00:02:38,689 --> 00:02:41,000 would be responsible for its maintenance. 50 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000 That's the intent of the note. 51 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,139 Right, but okay, so there's not like misleading the way it 52 00:02:47,139 --> 00:02:52,000 's written when it says traversed by or adjacent to. 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,599 In other words, so you see there's a lot, so lot two has a 54 00:02:56,599 --> 00:02:59,000 drainage easement right on the south side, correct? 55 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,000 That's correct. 56 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:07,000 So there's an adjacent lot below it, not part of this plot. 57 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,479 I can see your confusion in the language. I don't know that 58 00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:15,139 we've ever encountered an issue with that. This note is 59 00:03:15,139 --> 00:03:17,000 standard language from the criteria manual for drainage. 60 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,330 It would only be for the lots within the within the 61 00:03:19,330 --> 00:03:20,000 boundary. 62 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,000 Well, and that's what I thought. 63 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000 Right, so I mean my suggestion would be to clarify that. 64 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Maintained by the owners of the lots within. 65 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,000 Subject plat. 66 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000 Yeah. 67 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,120 Certainly, yeah, and I will say with the updates for the 68 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,300 criteria manuals coming forward, hopefully at the end of 69 00:03:35,300 --> 00:03:37,669 the year, what that's something we could could hopefully 70 00:03:37,669 --> 00:03:39,000 try to tighten up the language on. 71 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,939 I'd suggest it. I mean, it may not be an issue now or that 72 00:03:41,939 --> 00:03:44,610 we've never had it, but it certainly could be, especially 73 00:03:44,610 --> 00:03:47,009 if someone's not maintaining it and it's like it says right 74 00:03:47,009 --> 00:03:49,000 there an adjacent lot and you're adjacent. 75 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,000 So I don't know. 76 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000 Okay, thanks. 77 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Any other questions on agenda consent. 78 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:16,040 Haley, if you'd stay up there, can we go to item for be of 79 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:21,000 individual consideration. 80 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,129 All right, so this is a site plan for an I hop at razor 81 00:04:25,129 --> 00:04:26,000 ranch. 82 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,449 So the request before you, as I mentioned, is to consider 83 00:04:29,449 --> 00:04:32,480 approval for a site plan for an I hop restaurant to be 84 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,860 constructed within the South RR to district of the razor 85 00:04:35,860 --> 00:04:37,000 ranch overlay. 86 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,220 So the subject side is outlined on the map in yellow. It's 87 00:04:40,220 --> 00:04:43,639 approximately one acre. It's currently comprised of all of 88 00:04:43,639 --> 00:04:46,720 one lot and a portion of another lot. There is an amending 89 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,899 plat that's been approved but not yet filed to combine this 90 00:04:49,899 --> 00:04:51,000 all into one lot. 91 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,290 The site, as you can see here is located along the frontage 92 00:04:54,290 --> 00:04:57,759 road of I 35 fairly adjacent to the new convention center 93 00:04:57,759 --> 00:04:59,000 for reference. 94 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,589 So the base zoning for this area is the regional center 95 00:05:01,589 --> 00:05:04,660 commercial downtown district. However, as we've seen many 96 00:05:04,660 --> 00:05:07,560 times before the razor ranch overlay district shown here on 97 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,240 the map encompasses this area and provides additional 98 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,000 criteria on top of that base zoning. 99 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,430 So what we see here, the subject property outlined in red 100 00:05:16,430 --> 00:05:19,800 is part of that South RR to district that's intended to be 101 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,000 kind of the perimeter street commercial development within 102 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:24,000 razor. 103 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,660 Within the razor ranch overlay all site plans are required 104 00:05:26,660 --> 00:05:29,319 to be considered by the planning and zoning commission for 105 00:05:29,319 --> 00:05:32,839 approval. There are standards outlined in the overlay 106 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,000 district itself for architecture landscaping and signage. 107 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,220 The following things that we'll look at here the site plan 108 00:05:40,220 --> 00:05:43,279 the landscape plan and the building elevations are all 109 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,600 specifically required to be considered by the planning and 110 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,000 zoning commission. 111 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,089 The overlay district provides criteria for approval. Those 112 00:05:51,089 --> 00:05:53,740 being that the site plan complies with that concept and 113 00:05:53,740 --> 00:05:56,449 schematic plan that we just saw this being in that are to 114 00:05:56,449 --> 00:05:59,209 district and being a permitted commercial use that it 115 00:05:59,209 --> 00:06:01,459 provides for compatible arrangement of buildings that 116 00:06:01,459 --> 00:06:04,000 wouldn't adversely affect properties outside of the overlay 117 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,000 district. 118 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,079 That there is adequate and safe circulation for vehicular 119 00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:11,220 traffic and that it complies with all the other criteria of 120 00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:14,329 the overlay. So we'll run through some of these highlights 121 00:06:14,329 --> 00:06:17,199 of the criteria that are outlined in more detail in your 122 00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:18,000 backup. 123 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,810 Looking at the site plan, you can see in blue, the 124 00:06:20,810 --> 00:06:25,000 approximate building square footage of 4621 square feet. 125 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,350 Within the razor ranch overlay, they are precluded from the 126 00:06:28,350 --> 00:06:31,759 maximum parking requirements of the city. So their minimum 127 00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:35,250 is 47 based on the square footage of the building. They are 128 00:06:35,250 --> 00:06:37,000 providing 66 parking spaces for the restaurant. 129 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,220 And as you can see here, access to the site would be from 130 00:06:40,220 --> 00:06:44,000 one drive aisle onto an internal street within razor ranch. 131 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000 So no direct access to the frontage road. 132 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000 Looking at their landscaping plan, the site is required a 133 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,000 minimum of 10% landscaping. Overall they have 26% provided. 134 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,949 They're required to have a 25% tree canopy and what they 135 00:06:59,949 --> 00:07:02,000 provided is 46%. 136 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,569 Apologize the highlights that are on the map there got a 137 00:07:04,569 --> 00:07:07,490 little bit off but you can see the general areas. Christian 138 00:07:07,490 --> 00:07:09,000 back. Thank you, Vice Chair. 139 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,839 Quick question while we've got this up. So the entrance is 140 00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:15,310 going to be from the back of the building. Correct. Okay, 141 00:07:15,310 --> 00:07:17,000 and the green we're seeing there then is going to be 142 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:17,000 covered. 143 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,279 I'm assuming those are trash bins in the back there. Well, 144 00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:22,550 as I mentioned, the highlights are a bit off on the screen 145 00:07:22,550 --> 00:07:26,000 here. They shifted apparently on this computer versus mine. 146 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,790 That's intended to highlight the landscape areas on the map 147 00:07:28,790 --> 00:07:32,639 . These are the dumpster locations in the back. So they'll 148 00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:35,449 be concealed though as you're pulling them? Correct. Yeah, 149 00:07:35,449 --> 00:07:37,379 they will have a screening wall around these, but the 150 00:07:37,379 --> 00:07:39,000 access will be from this one driveway. 151 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,939 Great. Thank you. And one of the other main criteria for 152 00:07:43,939 --> 00:07:48,000 the razor ranch is the plaza area. So based on the square 153 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,990 footage of the use, one square foot of plaza areas required 154 00:07:50,990 --> 00:07:53,000 per 10 square feet of building. 155 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,509 So they were required a minimum of 462 square feet of plaza 156 00:07:56,509 --> 00:08:00,160 . They've provided 604 that would be roughly here in front 157 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,060 of the building in what was intended to be outlined in 158 00:08:03,060 --> 00:08:06,399 yellow. And the elements they've provided within that are 159 00:08:06,399 --> 00:08:10,000 benches, shade trees and additional landscape plantings. 160 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,949 Here we can see the building elevations. They've met the 161 00:08:12,949 --> 00:08:16,199 base criteria for razor in terms of color being the neutral 162 00:08:16,199 --> 00:08:18,910 earth tones. They do have some accent colors as you can see 163 00:08:18,910 --> 00:08:21,870 here and they are providing the kind of standard limestone 164 00:08:21,870 --> 00:08:26,000 that's featured throughout all the buildings at razor. 165 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,279 So with that staff is recommending approval of the site 166 00:08:28,279 --> 00:08:30,680 plan request. We found it to be compliant with all of the 167 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,789 criteria within the overlay district as well as the 168 00:08:32,789 --> 00:08:35,000 criteria for approval that were discussed here. 169 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:42,210 I could stand for any questions. Christian back.

Like 303 00:15:05,779 --> 00:15:08,820 I said there's a large detention pond within that that they 304 00:15:08,820 --> 00:15:11,000 were, we're trying to work around. 305 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,610 So in the areas highlighted in green, they have widened the 306 00:15:14,610 --> 00:15:18,539 required landscape area to 20 feet as I mentioned, and then 307 00:15:18,539 --> 00:15:22,000 increase the amount of plantings within that area. 308 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,639 The landscaping would decrease 7% from what's currently on 309 00:15:25,639 --> 00:15:29,070 the site with the addition of this impervious paving, and 310 00:15:29,070 --> 00:15:32,080 then the tree canopy would increase by 7% with the 311 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,000 additional screening and parking lot trees. 312 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,470 So the code outlines these criteria for approval of an 313 00:15:37,470 --> 00:15:40,399 alternative development plan, the preservation of existing 314 00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:43,159 neighborhoods, this being an expansion of an existing use 315 00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:45,000 that's been there for many years. 316 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,870 Staff didn't find any concerns or any anticipated negative 317 00:15:48,870 --> 00:15:52,269 effects from allowing it to continue there. Assuring 318 00:15:52,269 --> 00:15:54,860 quality development, what they've requested we found isn't 319 00:15:54,860 --> 00:15:57,669 necessarily to lower design standards, it's to work within 320 00:15:57,669 --> 00:16:00,990 existing site conditions and provide as much as they can to 321 00:16:00,990 --> 00:16:02,000 meet the code. 322 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,220 And then focusing new development to activity centers. This 323 00:16:05,220 --> 00:16:07,429 wouldn't be in any way contributing to scroll as I 324 00:16:07,429 --> 00:16:10,269 mentioned because they're just expanding their existing use 325 00:16:10,269 --> 00:16:11,000 on the site. 326 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,480 The other two criteria being ensuring infrastructure can be 327 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,809 adequately provided. The site has already served with 328 00:16:17,809 --> 00:16:21,179 access as well as utilities, so we didn't find any concerns 329 00:16:21,179 --> 00:16:22,000 with that. 330 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,059 And then resulting in an overall high quality development 331 00:16:25,059 --> 00:16:27,000 that meets the intent of the code. 332 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,620 What we found is the proposed screening elements go above 333 00:16:29,620 --> 00:16:32,240 and beyond what would be required in terms of the number of 334 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,000 plantings. 335 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:38,200 They are continuing to preserve all of the existing trees 336 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,519 on site as well as increase the canopy. Really it's due to 337 00:16:42,519 --> 00:16:44,039 the large acreage of the site that it's quite hard to 338 00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:46,000 provide 50% coverage with tree canopy on an eight acre lot. 339 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,470 And then the overall landscaping is still well in excess of 340 00:16:49,470 --> 00:16:52,000 the 40% minimum that's required. 341 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:57,259 So staff is recommending approval of this request as we 342 00:16:57,259 --> 00:17:03,039 found it met all of the required criteria.

That's the view from the road you can see our 361 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:25,000 sign for tonight properly posted. 362 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,609 The request currently it's a neighborhood residential mixed 363 00:18:28,609 --> 00:18:31,950 use zoning as you can see there to facilitate their rede 364 00:18:31,950 --> 00:18:35,299 velopment they'd like to go to a community mixed use general 365 00:18:35,299 --> 00:18:36,000 zoning. 366 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,579 So the two criteria we consider when looking at a rezoning 367 00:18:39,579 --> 00:18:44,000 are in DTC section 35.3.4 B does it match the future land 368 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,190 use plan and does it allow for if we permit it will we be 369 00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:51,000 able to provide the appropriate public services public 370 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,000 facilities. 371 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,369 So going to the first criteria we want to look at the 372 00:18:55,369 --> 00:18:57,000 future land use map. 373 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,329 As you can see there the subject property is well within 374 00:19:00,329 --> 00:19:03,440 the community mixed use future land use area that's 375 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,859 intended primarily for mix of uses that has a commercial 376 00:19:06,859 --> 00:19:10,250 focus and the community mixed use general zoning that's 377 00:19:10,250 --> 00:19:13,769 proposed would fit with that because it does in fact allow 378 00:19:13,769 --> 00:19:18,000 for mix of uses that are commercially focused in nature. 379 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,220 The CMG zoning is appropriate in terms of the permitted 380 00:19:21,220 --> 00:19:24,299 uses and scale development there and by contrast the 381 00:19:24,299 --> 00:19:27,799 current zoning neighborhood residential mixed use is more 382 00:19:27,799 --> 00:19:30,950 of a residential focus it's not a great fit it's a as you 383 00:19:30,950 --> 00:19:34,000 can see we expect that more to the south there. 384 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,000 The CMG zoning would fit better with the future land use. 385 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,250 However, future land use map isn't it's not infallible so 386 00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:44,220 we want to look at what's on the ground right now. 387 00:19:44,220 --> 00:19:47,250 Currently the adjacent uses are primarily commercial or 388 00:19:47,250 --> 00:19:50,390 vacant. So again, CMG being commercially focused would fit 389 00:19:50,390 --> 00:19:51,000 with that. 390 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,079 And the site itself is at the intersection of two primary 391 00:19:55,079 --> 00:19:59,960 arterials loop 288 and university drive CMG is designed for 392 00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:04,140 allow for uses that need good access and obviously it with 393 00:20:04,140 --> 00:20:08,000 two primary arterials, you have great access. 394 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,220 So it does actually fit both of those categories, the 395 00:20:11,220 --> 00:20:14,000 adjacent uses and the actual site location. 396 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,869 The second element would we be able to provide the public 397 00:20:16,869 --> 00:20:20,220 facilities public services if we accept this rezoning, as 398 00:20:20,220 --> 00:20:23,000 already noted it has good access to primary arterials. 399 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,190 Water is provided on site as a sewer, and it's a previously 400 00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:29,000 developed location. 401 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:33,920 We did send out courtesy notices 200 500 feet receive no 402 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,000 responses. 403 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,220 Taking all that into consideration staff recommends 404 00:20:38,220 --> 00:20:41,230 approval it meets the criteria we look at it meets the 405 00:20:41,230 --> 00:20:44,869 location to primary arterials, and it's compatible with the 406 00:20:44,869 --> 00:20:46,000 adjacent uses. 407 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,390 And with that said, happy to answer any questions.

As you can see 455 00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:37,970 this is what it's intended for primarily a guide for the 456 00:23:37,970 --> 00:23:42,170 city to use in considering decisions related to to lane use 457 00:23:42,170 --> 00:23:45,390 infrastructure, and the like and I think that relates back 458 00:23:45,390 --> 00:23:48,000 to what we're going to be discussing a few minutes. 459 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:53,420 It is really a 20 year plan out seeing what what the city 460 00:23:53,420 --> 00:23:59,000 should be wants to be in the future. Moving forward. 461 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,549 The plan itself has 10 elements from lane use to community 462 00:24:03,549 --> 00:24:07,960 character to mobility. There's themes that were used to to 463 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,410 draft the comprehensive plan, all for a mobility community 464 00:24:12,410 --> 00:24:16,529 character, sustainability and community health were 465 00:24:16,529 --> 00:24:20,269 important themes that was used at the end of the 466 00:24:20,269 --> 00:24:21,000 comprehensive plan 467 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,720 there is an implementation chapter that contains actions 468 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,369 that relate back to the goals that were established in the 469 00:24:28,369 --> 00:24:30,000 comprehensive plan. 470 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,309 And as any plan review and updates are necessary and 471 00:24:34,309 --> 00:24:38,960 comprehensive plans tend to be looked at between five to 472 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:45,130 seven years out so 2015 we're in 2018 so in a couple years 473 00:24:45,130 --> 00:24:49,000 probably revisiting the comprehensive plan. 474 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,250 Within the comprehensive plan there is a community vision 475 00:24:52,250 --> 00:24:55,640 statement, and I pulled this up, because obviously this is 476 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,000 the meat of the plan. This is the community's vision. 477 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,700 And as it relates to a rural areas, there is a particular 478 00:25:01,700 --> 00:25:06,000 section the community vision statement. I know it's hard to 479 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,440 see so I've kind of recreated that section of community 480 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,200 vision statement. And in that section, it's the rural 481 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:19,000 fringe areas with the rural areas that we have here in the 482 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,000 city. 483 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,089 So the community vision statement states is that those 484 00:25:23,089 --> 00:25:27,519 areas contiguous in the future should be staged in growth, 485 00:25:27,519 --> 00:25:31,700 be physically and environmentally sound, reduce frag 486 00:25:31,700 --> 00:25:35,990 mentation of those areas and reduce sprawl discourage 487 00:25:35,990 --> 00:25:40,000 premature development and conserve as much future 488 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,579 development as possible conservation development is 489 00:25:43,579 --> 00:25:47,220 encouraged, which retains rural character of the area 490 00:25:47,220 --> 00:25:51,000 protects our open spaces and our greenways and views. 491 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,430 Also value our development values are greater, and it's an 492 00:25:56,430 --> 00:26:02,000 offer, it's a way to offer more choices to our residents. 493 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,839 Lastly, there's a there's a bullet there that talks about 494 00:26:05,839 --> 00:26:09,569 safety and compatibility, as it relates to activities in 495 00:26:09,569 --> 00:26:13,259 these areas, primarily, as we look at the air to the west 496 00:26:13,259 --> 00:26:17,000 gas wall and drilling production, specifically. 497 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,519 So, again, within the damn plan 2030 there is a section 498 00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:27,319 that talks about rural areas, rural area is a future land 499 00:26:27,319 --> 00:26:32,339 use designation in rural areas as described as an as areas, 500 00:26:32,339 --> 00:26:37,529 primarily for farms and ran chats, very low density, low in 501 00:26:37,529 --> 00:26:41,000 height, no more than two stories tall, 502 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:45,109 primarily single family on large lots, which are suitable 503 00:26:45,109 --> 00:26:49,000 for the periphery of the city promotes conservation 504 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,000 development. 505 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,099 When we have the opportunity to cluster homes we should and 506 00:26:55,099 --> 00:27:00,000 conserve areas that are more suitable for open space. 507 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:06,640 Again, materials, consistent with the natural surrounding 508 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,000 of the area, rural in nature. 509 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,549 So how does that translate to zoning, going a step further 510 00:27:14,549 --> 00:27:19,000 down a rural areas are transferred as you see in this chart 511 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,730 , the area that is in green, our current zoning districts is 512 00:27:23,730 --> 00:27:28,000 the RD five, I'm sorry, yes RD five, and the RC. 513 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,930 I don't see RD five x there because that is not a zoning 514 00:27:32,930 --> 00:27:38,420 district is just a designation so when it, when you look at 515 00:27:38,420 --> 00:27:43,799 rural areas were referring to the RD five and the RC zoning 516 00:27:43,799 --> 00:27:45,000 districts. 517 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,369 What an RD five is, is as zoning district is defined as the 518 00:27:50,369 --> 00:27:54,769 areas that are very low in density in as used for 519 00:27:54,769 --> 00:27:59,890 agricultural uses RC is those areas that are allowed to 520 00:27:59,890 --> 00:28:02,000 have some rural. 521 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:12,130 I'm sorry commercial uses, such as a general store, an area 522 00:28:12,130 --> 00:28:19,250 where goods can be sold and purchased. And then we have the 523 00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:20,000 rural residential which RD five x, and that again is not a 524 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:20,650 zoning district is a designation in the x is just to 525 00:28:20,650 --> 00:28:22,000 distinguish the difference 526 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:28,220 between the two. And these areas that are shown as RD five 527 00:28:28,220 --> 00:28:34,109 x are properties that were recently annexed into the city 528 00:28:34,109 --> 00:28:36,000 and not yet zoned. 529 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,880 And the one and the reason why we have that designation is 530 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,000 the section in our development code, which is stated here 531 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,509 35 16 AG, and that any application that comes in again now 532 00:28:48,509 --> 00:28:52,210 it's in the city so it's annex into the city, and any 533 00:28:52,210 --> 00:28:53,000 application 534 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,839 again, we have to review again something and if there's no 535 00:28:56,839 --> 00:29:00,460 zoning, what do we fall back to, and we fall back to the RD 536 00:29:00,460 --> 00:29:04,319 five as explained here, specifically in the areas or the, 537 00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:08,359 the language that is in green, and I'll just really, I'll 538 00:29:08,359 --> 00:29:09,000 read it real briefly 539 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:23,329 or quickly that is for newly annexed land that has not yet 540 00:29:23,329 --> 00:29:27,000 been zoned. 541 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,839 Specifically it's identified in the DDC, but also it's our 542 00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:35,000 lowest intense use or zoning district. So it makes sense. 543 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,569 So that's why you have already five x's in certain areas of 544 00:29:38,569 --> 00:29:43,000 the city that were again recently annexed. 545 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:58,000 So, where are those areas. I had our GIS folks prepare an 546 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:58,000 exhibit I apologize if it's hard to see here. The areas 547 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:58,000 that are in green the lighter green our zone already five x 548 00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:58,000 , I'm sorry not zone but rather designated already five x. 549 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:03,119 The areas that are of a darker green, and even a lighter 550 00:30:03,119 --> 00:30:09,039 green, are your RD. I'm sorry already five in our see. So 551 00:30:09,039 --> 00:30:15,000 you see that almost 111 parcels have not yet been zoned. 552 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,400 There are about 19 that are RD five, and then 12 that are 553 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:25,099 RC. So the majority of these areas are RD five x, and we 554 00:30:25,099 --> 00:30:28,000 need to zone these properties. 555 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,549 Soon, or they'll remain already five. The intent of when 556 00:30:32,549 --> 00:30:37,500 the property was annex was that the property would be zoned 557 00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:39,000 immediately. 558 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,880 We haven't done that as a city, the applicant or the 559 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,269 property owners that that want to develop haven't done that 560 00:30:45,269 --> 00:30:48,549 they haven't, they haven't needed a need to come in for rez 561 00:30:48,549 --> 00:30:53,000 oning because they haven't developed or if they do develop 562 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,000 there within the parameters 563 00:30:54,000 --> 00:31:00,220 of already five. So, no activity yet on these areas and you 564 00:31:00,220 --> 00:31:05,759 can see the majority of what we see along the periphery of 565 00:31:05,759 --> 00:31:11,000 the city is already five designated as already five. 566 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,220 Next, again telling us that there's not a lot of 567 00:31:14,220 --> 00:31:18,150 development activity there if if there were you'd see them 568 00:31:18,150 --> 00:31:22,039 in in, I think it was last planning zoning Commission 569 00:31:22,039 --> 00:31:25,890 meeting, we had an application, just north of long road, 570 00:31:25,890 --> 00:31:29,000 and that's probably one of the more 571 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:34,319 recent areas that was rezoned from our zone that is from 572 00:31:34,319 --> 00:31:40,000 whatever RD five x to in our four or six with a condition. 573 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,000 So, 574 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,210 so the reason or the why why do we have already five x is 575 00:31:47,210 --> 00:31:51,599 there were why haven't we done it yet, and I blew this up 576 00:31:51,599 --> 00:31:55,000 here to show you that in 2008. 577 00:31:55,000 --> 00:32:00,390 We annex all this area here has shown primarily as we 578 00:32:00,390 --> 00:32:06,039 receive development activity, north of town and this is the 579 00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:09,000 the Craver Ranch development. 580 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,849 The city initiated a rezoning, I'm sorry, an annexation of 581 00:32:12,849 --> 00:32:16,210 this area, but the Craver Ranch never developed, and 582 00:32:16,210 --> 00:32:20,460 therefore the zoning never took place. So it's been 583 00:32:20,460 --> 00:32:26,000 designated RD five x since 2008. 584 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,849 Another explanation of why we have so many already five x 585 00:32:30,849 --> 00:32:37,039 is, is that in 2010, we the city initiated a involuntary 586 00:32:37,039 --> 00:32:42,079 annexation process of these planning area annexation areas, 587 00:32:42,079 --> 00:32:47,000 you see that we have four planning areas to the north, and 588 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:47,000 the remaining 589 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,779 RD h, which is referred to as donut holes in the city 590 00:32:51,779 --> 00:32:56,000 started this back again in 2010. 591 00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:01,000 In 2010, the areas in blue or annex into the city. 592 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:05,630 And again they were never zoned, they were just annex and 593 00:33:05,630 --> 00:33:09,000 so therefore receive that already five x. 594 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:15,220 In 2010, the, the city council allowed for non annexation 595 00:33:15,220 --> 00:33:21,000 agreements to be issued or to be granted to expire in 2015. 596 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,309 And so, those properties that were not annex were subject 597 00:33:25,309 --> 00:33:28,000 to annexation in 2015. 598 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:33,759 In 2015, the council approved on some annexation you see 599 00:33:33,759 --> 00:33:39,039 there in green, but also extended those non annexation 600 00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:41,000 agreements for others. 601 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:46,000 And for another year to expire in 2016. 602 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,109 2016 came around and we annex these parcels that are shown 603 00:33:50,109 --> 00:33:51,000 in purple. 604 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:55,200 Not all of the properties were annex, the remaining parcels 605 00:33:55,200 --> 00:34:00,000 were again given another extension. And that year is 2020. 606 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,000 So August 2020. 607 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,599 These non annexation agreements of those areas that were 608 00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:09,719 not annex will be subject to again see see council's 609 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,400 determination either to extend it or to proceed with annex 610 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:15,000 ation. 611 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:23,250 Commissioner back. Thanks. First year let me ask a question 612 00:34:23,250 --> 00:34:23,659 here because going up there in the northeast quadrant there 613 00:34:23,659 --> 00:34:24,000 , we've still got this. 614 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,000 I guess it's et et j area. 615 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,000 What prevented. 616 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,750 I mean leaving that big hole there what prevented the city 617 00:34:32,750 --> 00:34:35,329 from going ahead and annex and that no come down to your 618 00:34:35,329 --> 00:34:38,000 this way. Yes. 619 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,940 And then you're golfing that rather than leave it open like 620 00:34:40,940 --> 00:34:43,699 that it's like a big old hole in the year that we've been X 621 00:34:43,699 --> 00:34:46,010 what prevented that from being my understanding when they 622 00:34:46,010 --> 00:34:49,000 when they started this process back in 2009. 623 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:54,159 There was actually PA five here. And then this was another 624 00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:58,309 PA six. However, they decided again council decided to go 625 00:34:58,309 --> 00:35:02,480 forward with this area, anticipating growth happening here, 626 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:07,000 more likely in the immediate future than these areas so 627 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:07,000 that was I believe the 628 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,000 reason why they left these out but you're right. 629 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,309 That would make sense but unfortunately they were. They 630 00:35:14,309 --> 00:35:18,110 decided to move forward with this area versus the area to 631 00:35:18,110 --> 00:35:19,000 the east. 632 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,510 Okay, moving forward what kind of prohibitions or 633 00:35:22,510 --> 00:35:26,429 limitations with the city have in in annexing that area is 634 00:35:26,429 --> 00:35:30,000 there going to be some right concern. 635 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,420 I think it's a little higher than that we have the state 636 00:35:35,420 --> 00:35:41,460 just approved the legislation that basically limits or not 637 00:35:41,460 --> 00:35:46,780 limits but rather gives direction on how involuntary annex 638 00:35:46,780 --> 00:35:51,280 ations are to occur, and it is a much more involved process, 639 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:55,000 which requires 640 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:59,309 the owners to vote to basically agree. If they don't agree 641 00:35:59,309 --> 00:36:03,260 then elections are scared are required to even to annex 642 00:36:03,260 --> 00:36:07,210 those properties so very unlikely and a little bit more 643 00:36:07,210 --> 00:36:09,000 difficult process. 644 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,949 If the city does decide to go forward with future involunt 645 00:36:11,949 --> 00:36:16,000 ary annexation. Okay, great. Thank you. 646 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,000 Commissioner Smith. 647 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,440 In regards to Larry so continue on because it's in the ETJ. 648 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,489 As I understand the ETJ it's a little bit like the Wild 649 00:36:24,489 --> 00:36:27,690 West out there anybody can pretty much do whatever they 650 00:36:27,690 --> 00:36:31,000 want to out there. Is that correct with no not not not very 651 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,000 many restrictions no code code. 652 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,369 Yeah, they would have to follow county requirements. There 653 00:36:36,369 --> 00:36:39,639 's no city is what I should say is no no city enforcement on 654 00:36:39,639 --> 00:36:41,000 anything code wise. 655 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,329 So, with having those types of holes and granted it's a 656 00:36:43,329 --> 00:36:45,699 harder process but having those types of holes hilarious 657 00:36:45,699 --> 00:36:48,300 point now in that northeast quadrant, essentially, pretty 658 00:36:48,300 --> 00:36:50,599 much anybody can go in there and do what they wanted to as 659 00:36:50,599 --> 00:36:55,000 long as it met county land use and design standards 660 00:36:55,000 --> 00:37:06,039 yes, what we, the city does have is subdivision regulations 661 00:37:06,039 --> 00:37:15,090 through an area local agreement with the county.

We see that we want to see areas around the 711 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,000 downtown. 712 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:12,780 The core primarily basically the core is loop 288 in I 35, 713 00:40:12,780 --> 00:40:17,300 you see that we have major nodes or commercial centers 714 00:40:17,300 --> 00:40:20,000 identified as growth areas. 715 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,550 We see that there are some development here in yellow 716 00:40:23,550 --> 00:40:27,000 towards Teasley and South of town ropes and ranch, 717 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,000 anticipating more development there. 718 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,710 Now that there are also, you know, development, you know, 719 00:40:33,710 --> 00:40:37,090 seen here on coal range the future coal ranch, when that 720 00:40:37,090 --> 00:40:41,280 develops. We also have hills of den so those are the areas, 721 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,510 again, along major corridors and along commercial centers 722 00:40:45,510 --> 00:40:47,000 where prefer growth, 723 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:51,000 again is preferred, it's a guiding document should go. 724 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,900 Where does that leave all the areas north of town or, you 725 00:40:54,900 --> 00:40:59,000 know, west of town where those non, I'm sorry those are D 726 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:03,000 five zoning districts or RD five x destinations, go. 727 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,829 It didn't anticipate it so for our purposes are for the 728 00:41:07,829 --> 00:41:10,000 plan 2030. 729 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,849 Development is not going to occur in any time soon, and 730 00:41:13,849 --> 00:41:18,000 that we should focus our growth here, not only that it fits 731 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:22,039 within the goals but it's it's compact, our infrastructure 732 00:41:22,039 --> 00:41:26,349 is within the core, and we're not extending our, our, you 733 00:41:26,349 --> 00:41:28,000 know, our infrastructure. 734 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:32,369 Further out where there's, there's not much activities 735 00:41:32,369 --> 00:41:36,659 there, and physically we we can we can withstand some of 736 00:41:36,659 --> 00:41:39,000 that type of development. 737 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:45,219 That being said, we as you all know we're working on a 738 00:41:45,219 --> 00:41:51,000 draft code update with that is a draft zoning map. 739 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,550 And we wanted to share this with you because following our 740 00:41:55,550 --> 00:42:00,159 land use goals in our development activity that we've seen, 741 00:42:00,159 --> 00:42:04,480 we, we see that the areas to the north to the west, north 742 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:09,000 and around to the east, you can see that these areas are 743 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,000 still shown in green 744 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:17,000 and that green is what we refer to as rural residential. 745 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,079 That's what we're proposing, and again, ultimately that 746 00:42:21,079 --> 00:42:25,150 will be brought forward to y'all for your consideration and 747 00:42:25,150 --> 00:42:28,000 City Council for ultimate decision. 748 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:32,699 But the idea there is that, as, as you look north of town 749 00:42:32,699 --> 00:42:38,000 and West, it's, it's meant it's it's supposed to be rural. 750 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:46,000 But again, this is the, the, the, the, the plan 2030 is a 751 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,860 guide. The zoning map is a little bit more than that it's 752 00:42:47,860 --> 00:42:49,000 actually in you, you have to comply with the zoning map. 753 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,349 So that's why it's important that we visit this and take 754 00:42:53,349 --> 00:42:56,000 very careful consideration. 755 00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:00,139 And maybe this area here are closer to the loop. Maybe 756 00:43:00,139 --> 00:43:04,000 these areas are not rural areas, and rather rural 757 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:08,500 residential but should be zone for residential. So, I think 758 00:43:08,500 --> 00:43:10,889 that's where we were asking and maybe that was the question 759 00:43:10,889 --> 00:43:12,000 maybe I went off completely 760 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:16,900 the rails but if we are thinking of residential along the 761 00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:22,230 periphery of town. This is the time to start thinking about 762 00:43:22,230 --> 00:43:26,619 how we want to zone is as we move forward. If, if not, then 763 00:43:26,619 --> 00:43:29,739 we are going to zone these properties or the draft zoning 764 00:43:29,739 --> 00:43:30,000 of these properties 765 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:34,309 are going to be our, our which is rural residential, and we 766 00:43:34,309 --> 00:43:39,000 will no longer have RD five x, it will be all zoned. 767 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000 So that's what we are. 768 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,000 Let's go with Commissioner Smith real fast. Thank you. That 769 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:45,000 's true. 770 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,119 On the on the our our there where we said the Craven 771 00:43:48,119 --> 00:43:51,949 development was if we'll say there was a suggestion before 772 00:43:51,949 --> 00:43:55,179 we get through the rest of the DC update and do the new 773 00:43:55,179 --> 00:43:56,000 zoning. 774 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,610 There's nothing we can do to maybe even suggest something 775 00:43:58,610 --> 00:44:01,289 that make that zoning more favorable to bring development 776 00:44:01,289 --> 00:44:04,000 towards that way is that something you said we can't can do 777 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,000 is that is that is the. 778 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,329 Is that a commission to you can see if a developer came in 779 00:44:09,329 --> 00:44:11,000 and saw that was our arm. 780 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,750 It basically if there was an hour versus whatever they have 781 00:44:14,750 --> 00:44:18,400 there are are three or four when I knew the new DC says, if 782 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,000 it was an hour for an hour for already. 783 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,710 And would that attract possibly more developers to it 784 00:44:23,710 --> 00:44:26,500 because they would have to go the extra step of having to 785 00:44:26,500 --> 00:44:29,000 rezone from the RR to the R for a message is asking 786 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,000 question to see. 787 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,389 Commission possibly make that area if we feel like that as 788 00:44:33,389 --> 00:44:36,639 a commission that should be developed. Could we do 789 00:44:36,639 --> 00:44:38,960 something now to maybe at least make that area more 790 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,590 attractive for development by getting I think that's a fair 791 00:44:41,590 --> 00:44:46,000 suggestion of recommendation to city council. 792 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:49,000 The risk is that you need to be right. 793 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,750 Of course, if you hit wrong if you hit the wrong area with 794 00:44:53,750 --> 00:44:58,610 with the intense zoning, then you're not going to be able 795 00:44:58,610 --> 00:45:02,000 to dial that back later. If you find out that it was wrong. 796 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,309 What I think what staff is proposing is a more conservative 797 00:45:06,309 --> 00:45:10,449 approach that would avoid potential liability for down 798 00:45:10,449 --> 00:45:13,000 zoning if we hit the wrong area. 799 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,000 Question. Thank you. 800 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:19,000 Thank you. I share a couple things. 801 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:25,219 Once we lose the RD five X RD X and go to our right. Does 802 00:45:25,219 --> 00:45:27,630 that become more complicated than we want to make some zone 803 00:45:27,630 --> 00:45:30,000 changes down the road, then make any more different. 804 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,000 Okay, they would, similarly to what we've seen today with 805 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:35,639 any zoning change request they would just come in and 806 00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:37,000 submit an application. 807 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,679 Okay, and I agree with your concept that there are just 808 00:45:40,679 --> 00:45:44,920 certain areas that, you know, way off down the road that, 809 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,599 you know, we shouldn't even consider developed but if you 810 00:45:48,599 --> 00:45:52,550 look at this map, you kind of see a pregnancy there where 811 00:45:52,550 --> 00:45:56,000 it's kind of pushing out towards the northeast. 812 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,610 No, within the loop there. Okay, yeah, see how it's pushing 813 00:45:59,610 --> 00:46:03,179 out. And we did bring up that area along long road and how 814 00:46:03,179 --> 00:46:05,000 that area is developing. 815 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,489 You've got residential that's on the, I guess it would be 816 00:46:08,489 --> 00:46:12,050 the south side of the loop, kind of pushing its way towards 817 00:46:12,050 --> 00:46:16,000 that area. And I want to control. 818 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,739 And I think we all should want to control expansion of 819 00:46:19,739 --> 00:46:21,000 residential. 820 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:25,809 That's why I'm reluctant to expand our three or two or four 821 00:46:25,809 --> 00:46:30,500 out that way but that at least part of that Sherman drive 822 00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:35,340 is what it is, is going to be eventually a primary arterial 823 00:46:35,340 --> 00:46:40,000 because it's going to be widen later down the road. 824 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,420 And I'm hoping we can and I guess the DC rewrite sub 825 00:46:43,420 --> 00:46:47,219 committee to look at it too. That should be to me like 826 00:46:47,219 --> 00:46:51,320 suburban corridor, a mixed use thing where we can get some 827 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:55,349 commercial development in there first, and then let the 828 00:46:55,349 --> 00:46:58,769 residential follow that, if need be because that's prime 829 00:46:58,769 --> 00:47:00,000 for. 830 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,000 Right. Does that make sense. Yeah, yeah, no, definitely. 831 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,480 And that that again that's the, the, you know, this was a 832 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,000 recent case that the Plains on the Commission heard and, 833 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:09,000 you know, obviously, 834 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:13,000 we had this as our, was it the right. 835 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,559 I'm sorry, the future land use designation I don't I don't 836 00:47:16,559 --> 00:47:20,150 want to say that this was already determined but because it 837 00:47:20,150 --> 00:47:23,530 's still draft, but the future land use had this as rural 838 00:47:23,530 --> 00:47:27,000 areas was was that the appropriate designation. 839 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,869 Maybe not but that was just one time I think it was I think 840 00:47:29,869 --> 00:47:31,000 that's changing. 841 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:39,900 Yeah. And we saw again, the other way you're proven 2015 so 842 00:47:39,900 --> 00:47:40,860 you know there's certain things that have changed. Right. 843 00:47:40,860 --> 00:47:41,630 The other area is concerned about but it's going to be in 844 00:47:41,630 --> 00:47:42,429 that area where there is a lot of growth was that stretch 845 00:47:42,429 --> 00:47:47,000 of University 380 out there, where it's in our to now. 846 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,840 But again we were looking at least on the stretch of 847 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:55,730 University within maybe 500 feet each side mate, making 848 00:47:55,730 --> 00:48:00,400 that more amenable to commercial development to and getting 849 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:03,630 rid of that in our to right and then again that's why yeah 850 00:48:03,630 --> 00:48:07,000 that's a good point and I think that goes back to what 851 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,989 Commissioner Smith was referring to, you know, what's more 852 00:48:10,989 --> 00:48:14,519 attractive you know what would what would you know if we 853 00:48:14,519 --> 00:48:18,210 can help you know track businesses. That's part of this 854 00:48:18,210 --> 00:48:21,809 effort as well and you can see that those areas that had an 855 00:48:21,809 --> 00:48:23,000 hour to propose. 856 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,730 It would be more commercial. And so that's what we're 857 00:48:26,730 --> 00:48:28,000 proposing. 858 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:40,150 Are you good. Commissioner Smith. Yeah, thank you.

So, rather than letting it come as it 878 00:49:22,900 --> 00:49:26,170 may and commissions change over and maybe by the whims of 879 00:49:26,170 --> 00:49:28,510 it, they become as piecework together we can kind of go and 880 00:49:28,510 --> 00:49:29,000 paint the picture of what we want that 881 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,820 there that's, that's true that's true future planning 882 00:49:31,820 --> 00:49:35,000 rather than just being a voting commission. 883 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,570 But in a commissioners but just I just illustrate a little 884 00:49:38,570 --> 00:49:42,380 bit about what you just mentioned. See this area right over 885 00:49:42,380 --> 00:49:44,000 here. You can see my mouse. 886 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,550 That's currently doesn't is RD five x, you know, we see 887 00:49:48,550 --> 00:49:53,210 growth happening on the east side of town as well. And so 888 00:49:53,210 --> 00:49:57,579 we, again, propose our to in that area. Hopefully see more 889 00:49:57,579 --> 00:50:00,530 development correct in that area so but yeah you I mean do 890 00:50:00,530 --> 00:50:04,000 I mean, where and how, in, in which area is 891 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,349 something that I believe the commission can make 892 00:50:08,349 --> 00:50:13,000 recommendations towards. 893 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:16,980 One thing that particular on that west side I think as we 894 00:50:16,980 --> 00:50:18,000 look at it. 895 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,900 Just given the number of gas wells in that area whether or 896 00:50:21,900 --> 00:50:24,000 not it really makes sense. 897 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,340 So maybe it's maybe it's sort of a lower intensity mixed 898 00:50:27,340 --> 00:50:30,969 use. Again, could be it could be a lot of things but, but I 899 00:50:30,969 --> 00:50:34,179 think if we go straight residential and some of those 900 00:50:34,179 --> 00:50:36,000 particularly out west. 901 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,449 I think we'd be back again for a rezoning change. I'm not 902 00:50:39,449 --> 00:50:42,000 prepared to make recommendations. 903 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,820 I think it's enlightening to know that we could possibly 904 00:50:44,820 --> 00:50:47,639 take a harder look at it and say, here's some here's some 905 00:50:47,639 --> 00:50:50,340 pretty good uses for what's out there is really a way we 906 00:50:50,340 --> 00:50:53,280 get a continuation of this presentation where we do see gas 907 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,000 wells are out here here's 908 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,460 what could be pretty good uses, other than the RR would be 909 00:50:57,460 --> 00:51:00,949 quick we could see an R one or two out here, or there's not 910 00:51:00,949 --> 00:51:04,250 too many gas wells in this area we could possibly see some 911 00:51:04,250 --> 00:51:07,809 suburban development here here there are gas wells here so 912 00:51:07,809 --> 00:51:09,000 maybe lighter mixed use 913 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,280 or commercial use be better there. I think that'd be 914 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,550 beneficial for us to be able to at least give you guys a 915 00:51:13,550 --> 00:51:15,000 direction and recommendation. 916 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:20,000 Certainly, certainly appreciate it. 917 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,219 That was my presentation unless you all have any other 918 00:51:23,219 --> 00:51:24,000 questions. 919 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,289 Thank you, Vice Chair. So Ron, I think what I hear you 920 00:51:27,289 --> 00:51:30,639 saying is losing the already five x really means nothing 921 00:51:30,639 --> 00:51:33,949 because the city's probably not going to be voluntarily 922 00:51:33,949 --> 00:51:37,469 taking property and we're right with what you're less again 923 00:51:37,469 --> 00:51:39,000 again unless there's a special circumstance, 924 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,570 then, you know, then, then, I'm sure the city would would 925 00:51:42,570 --> 00:51:46,369 consider an involuntary annexation but from what I hear, or 926 00:51:46,369 --> 00:51:50,000 experience I don't think that will be anytime soon. 927 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:54,309 Does the state law now affect the non annexation agreements 928 00:51:54,309 --> 00:51:58,000 at all. You know that is a question that you know the city 929 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:01,309 attorney, I have discussed you know the non annexation 930 00:52:01,309 --> 00:52:04,989 agreements were adopted or approved prior to the deadline 931 00:52:04,989 --> 00:52:08,000 or what the, the time that it went effective. 932 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,000 December 1 of last year. 933 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,909 That's still to be determined I can certainly find out and 934 00:52:13,909 --> 00:52:18,000 get a little bit more information and share that with the 935 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,000 commission but I don't have a quick answer. 936 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,750 Yeah, because I guess that my question would be is, if 937 00:52:24,750 --> 00:52:29,000 suddenly we've now taken that property, then what is it. 938 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:43,889 2020, you know we get in 2020 what that zoning would be. 939 00:52:43,889 --> 00:52:44,239 That's a good question. We probably have to at that point 940 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:44,489 zone that property. In my opinion, as we, if we do decide 941 00:52:44,489 --> 00:52:44,760 to go forward with annexation, we would zone those with the 942 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,000 appropriate zoning at that time, 943 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:52,489 and not leave it to any default zoning or default 944 00:52:52,489 --> 00:52:54,000 designation. 945 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,539 Just just to add, if, if there is a use there they can 946 00:52:57,539 --> 00:53:02,000 still continue, I believe under the annexation. 947 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:25,000 Opportunity. Yeah, well, yes, and at the end of the non 948 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,000 annexation agreement, if it is not extended, then we can 949 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,000 annex at that time. There's nothing that says we couldn't 950 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,000 hold it in a holding pattern similar to an already five x 951 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,000 what we call it now or the idea that it's just 952 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:30,159 unzoned at that time and subject to zoning at, at some 953 00:53:30,159 --> 00:53:36,039 point but I think that what we're hearing is that staff is 954 00:53:36,039 --> 00:53:40,659 wanting to try to get more out in front of that and try to 955 00:53:40,659 --> 00:53:43,800 anticipate the needs when properties are brought in if at 956 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:52,000 all possible. 957 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:56,000 Mr Sanchez. Okay. Yeah, I kind of like that. 958 00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:03,099 Five dx because it kind of leaves that open to, to it well, 959 00:54:03,099 --> 00:54:10,239 the development is we don't. It seems like we want to what 960 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:16,550 we're hearing is, you want to put in zoning, when in 961 00:54:16,550 --> 00:54:24,000 reality we really don't know how the city is going to grow. 962 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,000 And then we zone it at that point. 963 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:31,099 It kind of limits what you're going to do and to me it kind 964 00:54:31,099 --> 00:54:35,880 of puts a break on on what he just mentioned is is puts a 965 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:39,000 break on it scares developers. 966 00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:42,519 I think the idea of you work with it, you work with the 967 00:54:42,519 --> 00:54:45,949 area and see what's happening there and then start 968 00:54:45,949 --> 00:54:49,539 developing it I mean zoning it not come in and annex it and 969 00:54:49,539 --> 00:54:52,670 then say okay we're going to give it this egg is 970 00:54:52,670 --> 00:54:54,000 designation. 971 00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:57,570 I think that's time or time or hands quite a bit. I think, 972 00:54:57,570 --> 00:55:00,949 I think development is something that flows growing of 973 00:55:00,949 --> 00:55:03,000 cities is constantly flowing. 974 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:09,280 Once we start putting designations, we kind of tie it. And 975 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:13,539 then we tie our own hands rather than let let the city grow 976 00:55:13,539 --> 00:55:18,360 . I mean, when I say grow I'm saying is we're constantly 977 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:23,329 overseeing it here in the, what do you call it planning and 978 00:55:23,329 --> 00:55:27,000 zoning, we're constantly going back every five six years 979 00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:31,099 to see what's going on. And then at that point, but just 980 00:55:31,099 --> 00:55:35,130 annex an area and then given the designation I think that 981 00:55:35,130 --> 00:55:39,670 that's limiting our growth and, and then brings, it's going 982 00:55:39,670 --> 00:55:42,000 to bring a lot of more issues. 983 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:46,000 Point taken. Yes. 984 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,000 See any other questions. 985 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,000 You said your presentation. 986 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,000 Perfect. Thank you very much.

It's 1105 01:04:01,219 --> 01:04:03,000 approximately one acre in total. 1106 01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,960 The site is currently comprised of one lot plus a portion 1107 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:07,000 of a second lot. 1108 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:11,000 The property is going through the planning process to reloc 1109 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:14,000 ate that lot line and make this all one lot. 1110 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:17,340 As you can see it's located along the frontage road north 1111 01:04:17,340 --> 01:04:20,480 of scripture street and in close proximity to the new 1112 01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,000 convention center. 1113 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,579 The base zoning for this area is a regional center 1114 01:04:24,579 --> 01:04:26,000 commercial downtown. 1115 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:29,079 However as you can see here this entire area is part of the 1116 01:04:29,079 --> 01:04:31,000 razor ranch overlay district. 1117 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,809 In particular this property is part of what's known as the 1118 01:04:33,809 --> 01:04:36,250 south RR two district which is kind of a commercial 1119 01:04:36,250 --> 01:04:40,670 commercial perimeter district for the southern part that 1120 01:04:40,670 --> 01:04:43,000 would surround the town center. 1121 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,210 All site plans for properties within the razor ranch 1122 01:04:45,210 --> 01:04:47,360 overlay district are required to be approved by the 1123 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,000 planning and zoning commission. 1124 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,000 In particular there are architectural and landscape 1125 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:55,219 standards outlined in the overlay district that are 1126 01:04:55,219 --> 01:04:58,000 required to be considered as part of this approval. 1127 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:00,170 The criteria for approval of a site plan are that it 1128 01:05:00,170 --> 01:05:03,000 substantially complies with that concept plan we just saw. 1129 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:06,030 So this meets that criteria being a commercial use that's 1130 01:05:06,030 --> 01:05:08,000 permitted within that district. 1131 01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,590 The site plan is to provide for a compatible arrangement of 1132 01:05:10,590 --> 01:05:13,239 buildings and uses so as not to adversely affect properties 1133 01:05:13,239 --> 01:05:15,000 outside of the overlay district. 1134 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:18,070 It's to provide for adequate and safe vehicular circulation 1135 01:05:18,070 --> 01:05:21,219 and to comply with all of the architectural and landscape 1136 01:05:21,219 --> 01:05:23,000 standards outlined in the overlay. 1137 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:25,000 So we'll look at these in a little more detail now. 1138 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,000 Outlined in blue is the apartment building footprint. 1139 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,000 It would be just over 4600 square feet. 1140 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:34,000 The minimum of 47 parking spaces are required. 1141 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:37,289 They are providing 66 on site within the razor ranch 1142 01:05:37,289 --> 01:05:38,000 overlay. 1143 01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,280 They are exempted from the maximum parking standard that we 1144 01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,000 have elsewhere in the city. 1145 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,690 And as you can see here there would be a one driveway shown 1146 01:05:45,690 --> 01:05:48,230 in gray that would connect to an internal drive aisle 1147 01:05:48,230 --> 01:05:50,000 within the overlay district. 1148 01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:55,000 So no direct connectivity to the service road. 1149 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,170 In terms of landscaping the site is required to have a 1150 01:05:57,170 --> 01:05:59,000 minimum of 10 percent landscaping. 1151 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,329 They're providing 26 percent generally in the areas shown 1152 01:06:02,329 --> 01:06:03,000 in green. 1153 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,000 They're required 25 percent tree canopy at maturity. 1154 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,820 The trees they're planting would provide 46 percent canopy 1155 01:06:08,820 --> 01:06:10,000 coverage for the site. 1156 01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,590 Another criteria of razor ranch is to provide plaza areas 1157 01:06:13,590 --> 01:06:16,000 for pedestrians on each property. 1158 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,980 They're providing a 604 square feet of plaza that would 1159 01:06:18,980 --> 01:06:22,360 include benches, shade trees in close proximity and then 1160 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:25,000 some additional planters outside the front of the building. 1161 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:30,000 And that area is generally shown in yellow. 1162 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,000 Here you can see the building elevations. 1163 01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,559 So they are meeting the building material and color palette 1164 01:06:34,559 --> 01:06:36,000 requirements for razor ranch. 1165 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:38,210 As I'm sure you're familiar with there's a general neutral 1166 01:06:38,210 --> 01:06:40,309 earth tone theme that's carried throughout all of the 1167 01:06:40,309 --> 01:06:41,000 buildings there. 1168 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:44,440 As well as a requirement for some native Texas limestone on 1169 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,000 each of the buildings. 1170 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:50,000 So this is providing for those elements. 1171 01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:52,340 With that staff is recommending approval of the request as 1172 01:06:52,340 --> 01:06:54,619 we found it to be compliant with all the regulations of the 1173 01:06:54,619 --> 01:06:57,369 razor ranch overlay district as well as the criteria for 1174 01:06:57,369 --> 01:06:58,000 approval. 1175 01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:01,000 And I'd be happy to stand for any questions. 1176 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,000 Thank you Haley. 1177 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,000 There are no questions at this time. 1178 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,000 Thank you very much. 1179

01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,000 So the plot has been through the approval process. 1186 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:22,000 It was an amending plot. 1187 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,760 So it's a approval by staff under the local government code 1188 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:25,000 . 1189 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:26,000 So it's been approved. 1190 01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:29,019 They just haven't brought in the execution package to have 1191 01:07:29,019 --> 01:07:30,000 that filed yet. 1192 01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,000 But obviously they will and they would need to. 1193 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:33,000 Yes.

favor? 1228 01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:02,000 Opposed? 1229 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,000 Six against abstain. 1230 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,000 The item is approved 6-0. 1231 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:12,000 Congratulations. 1232 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:24,000 Next I'll invite Haley back up for item 4C ADP 18-5. 1233 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:28,939 This is a parking lot expansion at the faith tabernacle 1234 01:09:28,939 --> 01:09:30,000 church. 1235 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:33,000 The purpose of this ADP is kind of dual fold. 1236 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,649 There was an original ADP approved for the site in 2010 1237 01:09:35,649 --> 01:09:38,000 that would be amended with this approval. 1238 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:41,300 As well as some new deviations being requested from the 1239 01:09:41,300 --> 01:09:44,739 landscaping requirements contained in subchapter 13 of the 1240 01:09:44,739 --> 01:09:46,000 development code. 1241 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:49,000 The property is outlined here in yellow on the map. 1242 01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,000 It is just under eight acres in total. 1243 01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:54,020 Located at the southwest corner of Audreau lane and Lat 1244 01:09:54,020 --> 01:09:55,000 imore street. 1245 01:09:55,000 --> 01:10:00,000 The property is zoned neighborhood residential 4. 1246 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,000 A little bit of history. 1247 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,529 In 2010 as I mentioned an ADP was approved that granted a 1248 01:10:04,529 --> 01:10:08,000 few deviations from the codes landscaping requirements. 1249 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:11,289 The first of those being a reduction in the minimum tree 1250 01:10:11,289 --> 01:10:12,000 canopy. 1251 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:16,000 50% canopy coverage is required for the NR4 district. 1252 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,420 Given the large size of the site that was difficult to 1253 01:10:18,420 --> 01:10:19,000 attain. 1254 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:22,000 So the planning and zoning commission at that time approved 1255 01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,970 a lower percentage that was comprised of all existing trees 1256 01:10:24,970 --> 01:10:26,000 on the site being preserved. 1257 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:30,039 And the new trees being planted as street trees and parking 1258 01:10:30,039 --> 01:10:31,000 lot trees. 1259 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,229 Additionally they had requested to deviate from the buffer 1260 01:10:34,229 --> 01:10:37,449 requirement because of the close proximity of residential 1261 01:10:37,449 --> 01:10:38,000 uses. 1262 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,000 A 15 foot type C buffer was required on the south and west 1263 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:42,000 property lines. 1264 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:44,890 In lieu of providing the buffer plantings they provided 1265 01:10:44,890 --> 01:10:48,210 additional landscape area on the site to help create more 1266 01:10:48,210 --> 01:10:51,500 separation between the church and the residential uses 1267 01:10:51,500 --> 01:10:52,000 nearby. 1268 01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:55,050 And as kind of the conditions of approval of that plat was 1269 01:10:55,050 --> 01:10:58,369 that the applicant maintained the landscape and tree canopy 1270 01:10:58,369 --> 01:11:00,000 area approved under the ADP. 1271 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:02,560 As well as not increase the number of parking spaces on 1272 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:03,000 site. 1273 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,729 So to add additional parking and deviate from what was 1274 01:11:06,729 --> 01:11:10,000 approved that brings us back here tonight. 1275 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:13,619 Kind of a brief summary of what was approved then and what 1276 01:11:13,619 --> 01:11:15,000 's requested now. 1277 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,640 As I mentioned in terms of the tree canopy they were unable 1278 01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:19,000 to provide that 50%. 1279 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,840 What was approved was the preservation of 54 existing trees 1280 01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:22,000 . 1281 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:25,850 As well as the provision of new trees to bring them to 22.8 1282 01:11:25,850 --> 01:11:27,000 % landscaping. 1283 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,329 What you'll see here on the plans tonight is again to 1284 01:11:29,329 --> 01:11:31,000 maintain all of the existing trees. 1285 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,850 And provide additional trees by way of parking lot trees 1286 01:11:34,850 --> 01:11:39,000 and screening that would increase the canopy to 30%. 1287 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:42,039 The type C buffer as I mentioned they were approved to not 1288 01:11:42,039 --> 01:11:45,439 provide the buffer plantings by providing greater landscape 1289 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:46,000 area. 1290 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,000 So that would be affected by this. 1291 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:51,000 They're adding 83 spaces to 103 that are already on site. 1292 01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:54,220 So that would increase the lot coverage and decrease the 1293 01:11:54,220 --> 01:11:56,000 landscape area to 58%. 1294 01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,600 And then as I mentioned front parking screening is the 1295 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:02,000 other component here was not addressed in the 2010 ADP. 1296 01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:04,640 But the code does require when parking is between the 1297 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,520 building and the street that a 15 foot wide landscape 1298 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:09,000 screening area be provided. 1299 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,460 That contains a berm, a certain number of tree plantings 1300 01:12:12,460 --> 01:12:15,000 and either shrubs or some sort of wall. 1301 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:18,359 What the applicant has proposed is in areas where they're 1302 01:12:18,359 --> 01:12:21,649 able to to not interfere with the drainage and tension on 1303 01:12:21,649 --> 01:12:22,000 site. 1304 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,079 To provide a 20 foot wide landscape area with a double row 1305 01:12:26,079 --> 01:12:29,000 of shrubs and increased number of trees. 1306 01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:31,449 So just looking at the proposed site plan you can see 1307 01:12:31,449 --> 01:12:34,100 outlined in yellow the general areas where new parking 1308 01:12:34,100 --> 01:12:35,000 would be provided. 1309 01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:37,890 As I mentioned there's 83 more spaces in addition to the 1310 01:12:37,890 --> 01:12:40,000 103 that are already approved. 1311 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:45,489 They would decrease the lot coverage from 34% to 28% with 1312 01:12:45,489 --> 01:12:47,000 this addition. 1313 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,300 In terms of landscaping outlined in the grayish blue color 1314 01:12:50,300 --> 01:12:53,260 is that drainage facility or tension facility that I 1315 01:12:53,260 --> 01:12:54,000 mentioned. 1316 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:56,829 That created some complications because as you can see the 1317 01:12:56,829 --> 01:12:59,000 parking already butts up against that. 1318 01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:01,590 So it's hard for them to provide for the required landsca 1319 01:13:01,590 --> 01:13:03,000 ping and berm in that area. 1320 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:06,220 So what they have proposed in the areas outlined in green 1321 01:13:06,220 --> 01:13:09,409 are the new plantings on site in front of the parking would 1322 01:13:09,409 --> 01:13:12,909 be that 20 foot wide area that I referenced that contained 1323 01:13:12,909 --> 01:13:16,340 one tree per 25 feet as well as a double row of evergreen 1324 01:13:16,340 --> 01:13:17,000 shrubs. 1325 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:21,310 The total site landscaping would be decreased by 7% but the 1326 01:13:21,310 --> 01:13:25,069 canopy coverage for the site would increase by 7% as a 1327 01:13:25,069 --> 01:13:27,000 result of this change. 1328 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,560 There are several criteria for approval of an ADP so I'll 1329 01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:31,000 run through those briefly. 1330 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:34,220 The preservation of existing neighborhoods we did not 1331 01:13:34,220 --> 01:13:37,260 identify any concerns there as this is the expansion of 1332 01:13:37,260 --> 01:13:39,000 parking for an existing use. 1333 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:41,630 In terms of assuring a quality development we found that 1334 01:13:41,630 --> 01:13:44,489 what they're requesting isn't necessarily lowering design 1335 01:13:44,489 --> 01:13:47,189 standards it's just providing an alternative that works 1336 01:13:47,189 --> 01:13:50,000 with the existing drainage and engineering of the site. 1337 01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:53,359 And then this would not be in any way contributing to spraw 1338 01:13:53,359 --> 01:13:56,720 l because it's just a continuation and expansion of their 1339 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:57,000 use. 1340 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:59,779 Infrastructure is already provided to the site served by 1341 01:13:59,779 --> 01:14:02,000 utilities as well as access to roadways. 1342 01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,739 And then in terms of this being a high quality development 1343 01:14:04,739 --> 01:14:07,380 they are providing above and beyond the plantings that 1344 01:14:07,380 --> 01:14:10,000 would be required for that screening area just an 1345 01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:11,000 alternative locations. 1346 01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,899 They're continuing to preserve all the trees as was 1347 01:14:13,899 --> 01:14:17,279 required by the previous ADP and they are still maintaining 1348 01:14:17,279 --> 01:14:21,000 landscaping area that's well in excess of the 40% minimum. 1349 01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,609 With that staff is recommending approval of the request as 1350 01:14:23,609 --> 01:14:26,000 we found it to meet all the criteria for approval. 1351 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:29,000 I'd be happy to stand for any questions. 1352 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:34,359 Thank you Haley. I do not see any questions. Appreciate the 1353 01:14:34,359 --> 01:14:35,000 presentation. 1354 01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:38,720 This item is for individual consideration. You are open to 1355 01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:41,359 speak on the item if you'd like to speak if anyone here 1356 01:14:41,359 --> 01:14:44,180 would like to speak I don't have any cards but you're more 1357 01:14:44,180 --> 01:14:47,000 than welcome to speak. 1358 01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:52,100 Seeing none we'll move to a discussion or motion. 1359 01:14:52,100 --> 01:14:53,000 Commissioner Smith. 1360 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,000 Motion to approve. 1361 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:58,000 Commissioner Sanchez. 1362 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:01,000 I'll second is there any discussion. 1363 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:04,529 Seeing no Commissioner Ellis. Thank you Chair. Just wanted 1364 01:15:04,529 --> 01:15:07,000 to thank Haley for putting this together so nicely. 1365 01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:10,729 It was great to see you know the requirement the background 1366 01:15:10,729 --> 01:15:11,000 . 1367 01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:15,369 So well and how it relates to the current request.
