1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:22,000 Thank you very much for joining me. 2 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000 This is our work session and with a quorum present I will call us to 3 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,000 order at 5 o 1 p.m. 4 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Let the record show at the moment commissioners Anderson and Smith 5 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,000 on the phone. 6 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000 I do not see anyone here on that. 7 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000 Nor here that there is anyone on the phone. 8 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000 So we'll go ahead to our work session item two, 9 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000 which is receive a report, 10 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000 hold a discussion regarding commercial and residential parking 11 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000 requirements. 12 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000 Which is always a fascinating discussion. 13 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000 Hello, Ron. 14 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000 Welcome to this fascinating discussion. 15 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:02,000 Let's get started. 16 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000 Good afternoon, Ron. 17 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Thank you for the opportunity. 18 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000 This is a parking boot camp, 19 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,000 a continuation of our boot camp series that we've been having with the 20 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000 planning zoning commission. 21 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000 Hopefully we can share some information with you related to parking. 22 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000 That not only helps you understand parking, 23 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:25,000 but as you review plans in zoning and SUPs and the like, 24 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,000 this can give you some background as to how parking is calculated or 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,000 required for development. 26 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,000 So purpose, why do we, the city, regulate parking? 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,000 Really it's to provide that off street parking to prevent, 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,000 you know, the streets from filling in, right? 29 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000 Filling up with cars. 30 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000 So to avoid and mitigate the traffic that's associated, you know, 31 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,000 with all roadways. 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:57,000 So taking off the parking and putting them into the property. 33 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000 That's obviously the main purpose. 34 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Obviously it also with that enhances the vehicle, 35 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,000 bicycle and pedestrian safety as, you know, 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000 we get more cars off the streets. 37 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,000 It also encourages multimodal transportation in terms of other forms of 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,000 transportation, rail, bus and the like, 39 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:25,000 but also included in the requirements in sub-chapter 7.9 specifically. 40 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,000 There are other requirements as it relates to parking in terms of landscaping 41 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,000 and addressing, you know, runoff, water quality, you know, 42 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,000 landscaping and buffering as I mentioned earlier. 43 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,000 So that's also part of the analysis and the review that we do when we look at 44 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000 parking plans. 45 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,000 But overall I think the most important thing is also to, you know, 46 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,000 look at and how we can avoid and mitigate those visual impacts, 47 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000 again, with the trees. 48 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,000 You see here as a site or as an example, this is taken at Razor Ranch. 49 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:04,000 Part of their parking lot landscaping requirements has a lot of trees and 50 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000 water treatment facilities as well. 51 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:13,000 So I wanted to share this photo to help illustrate why we do regulate parking. 52 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000 When is parking required? 53 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,000 So that's another important question. 54 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,000 Obviously as new construction is being proposed, parking requirement, 55 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,000 parking, off-street parking specifically, is going to be required. 56 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000 Expansions and enlargements, so if an existing building or existing site has 57 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,000 parking now but they're expanding their site, their square footage, 58 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,000 well of course that's going to have to accommodate, 59 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,000 be accommodated with parking, so that's also part of it. 60 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:46,000 Change of use, so if a use is an office space and transitions to or turns into 61 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,000 say a restaurant, obviously the need for parking is going to be more needed 62 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,000 there because there's more people coming to that particular site. 63 00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:00,000 But there are also exemptions to the parking requirements. 64 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Those, the top three that you see here listed is properties that are less than 65 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000 5,000 square feet per lot, of the lot area that is. 66 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,000 So we're not talking about building, we're talking about the lot size itself. 67 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:19,000 So any lot that is 5,000 or less would not be required to provide parking. 68 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,000 Now that is accepting also single-family duplex and townhomes. 69 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,000 So those would still need to provide parking even though there may be 5,000 70 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000 square feet or less. 71 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000 Residential development within the mixed use downtown zoning district. 72 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,000 Residential development, I'm sorry, residential development 10 units or less. 73 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000 If there are residential developments that are 10 or more, or 11 that is, 74 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000 then they would need to provide parking. 75 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:55,000 Non-residential development in the mixed use district are not required to provide, 76 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,000 are exempted to provide parking. 77 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:02,000 And so I put together a couple more slides to further the last two bullets here to 78 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:07,000 kind of illustrate where that MD, the mixed use downtown zoning district, 79 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,000 is located within the city. 80 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:16,000 This is primarily obviously by the square, the downtown, Carroll to the west, 81 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:21,000 Prairie to the south, Exposition to the east, and Parkway generally to the north. 82 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,000 The area that's MD is the purple shaded parcels. 83 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:32,000 And again, those parcels, if there is a multi-family or development that is, 84 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,000 that has 10 units or less, is not required to provide parking. 85 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,000 Any non-residential development is also not required to provide parking as long 86 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,000 as they're within that MD zoning district. 87 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,000 To help answer, well, if they're not providing parking, 88 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000 where's parking in the downtown? 89 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,000 So I got this off of our website, the City of Denton's website. 90 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:01,000 And hopefully you all can see, and can you make sure if I'm blocking you, please? 91 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,000 Excuse me. 92 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,000 You see that there are parking along the street. 93 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000 There are two-hour parking. 94 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,000 And then there are also parking that have no time limits. 95 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:16,000 The number that you see there to the far left, you see, I guess it'd be your right, 96 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:21,000 you'll see that the two-hour parking is approximately 500 parking spaces there. 97 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,000 The no time limit, there's about 110. 98 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:30,000 We also have public parking spaces, and those are labeled or shown here in green. 99 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000 And those represent 1,016 parking spaces. 100 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:39,000 In addition to the public parking, we have publicly owned parking spaces, 101 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,000 but are not public until after 5 p.m. 102 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,000 And those are represented there in blue. 103 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:52,000 So those parking spaces after 5 p.m. will be available for the general public to use. 104 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000 And then last is paid parking. 105 00:06:54,000 --> 00:07:00,000 There are a number of privately owned paid parking lots in the downtown, 106 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:06,000 approximately 200 spaces, and those are shown there in the orange polygon. 107 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:11,000 So let me stop here and kind of ask questions before I head into the next topic. 108 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,000 Are there any questions to what we've discussed so far? 109 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,000 Commissioner Pruitt. 110 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,000 Thank you, Chair. 111 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,000 It may have just zoomed by me, but on the first slide you talked about traffic impacts. 112 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:30,000 Could you explain how people parking would create more traffic? 113 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,000 So, right, so if you have more parking on the street, you know, it narrows down the street, 114 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:39,000 and that makes it, you know, a lot less, you know, passable in some cases. 115 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,000 So the idea there is to hopefully if we can, you know, 116 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000 move more of the parking off site or off the street, 117 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,000 then that will allow for ease of traffic travel. 118 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:56,000 So we're talking about streets that maybe aren't designed with a parking lane, for instance, if somebody -- 119 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,000 I think generally, yeah, generally, you know, you don't want to overburden, you know, the street with parking. 120 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:07,000 So there is a way to balance between on-street and off-street parking and make it easier for travel to occur. 121 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,000 That's sort of the intent. 122 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Okay. 123 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Okay. 124 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000 And then, I mean, okay. 125 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,000 Thanks. 126 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,000 Okay. 127 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000 Anybody else? 128 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,000 Okay. 129 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,000 Okay. 130 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:30,000 So you required parking, but how much parking do I have to provide? 131 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:37,000 So we have a table in the development code, and that's Table 7-9-I, 132 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:42,000 which outlines the minimum parking required for off-street parking. 133 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,000 And it's listed by use. 134 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,000 And we'll get into that. 135 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,000 I've got a couple of slides that explain or show examples of those parking requirements. 136 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:55,000 But I also wanted to cover that there's also maximum parking allowed. 137 00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:03,000 There's so much parking that you can provide -- that is allowed before you are required to do extra design. 138 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:08,000 So right now, the minimum is your maximum. 139 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:18,000 However, if you choose to go over the minimum, you know, increasing it more than 100 percent to 125 percent, 140 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:24,000 your additional parking spaces will need to be built or constructed per ice swim, 141 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,000 integrated stormwater management design. 142 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:34,000 So the idea there is that as you add more parking, you're addressing the additional parking pavement 143 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:42,000 by providing more water quality treatments, possibly maybe capturing some of the runoff 144 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:49,000 through some detention areas in landscaping and the like. 145 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:56,000 Now, if you want to, you know, increase your parking spaces above the 125 percent, 146 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,000 there's also an ability to do that. 147 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,000 That goes through the director of planning. 148 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:09,000 The director of planning will receive or take in a parking study that shows -- 149 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:15,000 hopefully it shows your need for additional parking over the 125 spaces. 150 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:21,000 If it meets the criteria in which the code allows that director to approve it, then you're able to. 151 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Now, those additional parking spaces will have to be constructed with pervious surfaces, approved pervious surfaces. 152 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:38,000 So again, those are -- some of the examples that I show here on this photo is on Teasley and Hickory Creek, 153 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:43,000 the sprouts development there on the northwest corner. 154 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:49,000 They installed some pervious pavement in their parking lot there to accommodate some of the increased parking. 155 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,000 So that's just an example of what you can do. 156 00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:00,000 So here is a couple of slides that illustrate the table that I was referring to. 157 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000 I pulled here or show here the residential uses. 158 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:12,000 As you can see, each use type from single family down to multifamily has a minimum parking requirement. 159 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,000 I'll touch on two specifically, the single family first. 160 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:22,000 A single family detached dwelling is required for spaces per dwelling unit. 161 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,000 Now, those spaces can be in a garage. 162 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:33,000 It can be part of a driveway, but it has to be provided on the property off street parking. 163 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:38,000 Similarly, with multifamily, it's per bedroom by the unit. 164 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:47,000 So for example, a one bedroom and efficiency unit, the required parking space there is 1.25 spaces per dwelling unit. 165 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Now, if it's a two bedroom or more, then it's one space for each bedroom. 166 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:59,000 So as you increase the number of bedrooms per unit, the number of parking also increases. 167 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:09,000 Overall, if the total development requires a parking count of more than 10 parking spaces, 168 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:18,000 then I'm sorry, if a development is 10 units or more, then the requirement for guest parking is required. 169 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:27,000 So if you have, for example, the parking space of 100 spaces for your development and you've got 10 units, 170 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:38,000 then you need to provide 10%, which is an additional 10 parking spaces for that development to accommodate those guest parking needs. 171 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,000 Also wanted to show commercial requirements, parking requirements. 172 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:53,000 So you see here that bar, tavern, or lounge, private club, restaurants, and restaurants with drive through all share the same parking requirement. 173 00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:03,000 That is currently one space per two square feet for indoor and one space per 350 square feet for outdoor. 174 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:13,000 On the bottom part of this table, you have administrative, professional offices, banks, movie, sorry, music studios. 175 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:22,000 All of those and others, all of those share a similar parking requirement and that is one space per 450 square feet of gross floor area. 176 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,000 So again, kind of gives you an idea of what is required for each of the uses. 177 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:40,000 Now, there is more uses that I don't have here, but our development code has all of them listed and all of them have a parking requirement for each of those uses. 178 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:48,000 Now, what if they can't meet those parking requirements per the minimum required per the table? 179 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:56,000 Well, there are parking alternatives that the development code is available for applicants to submit. 180 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:07,000 The director must approve those alternatives and it cannot exceed 50% either up or down in terms of that alternative. 181 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:23,000 So, for example, we use the 50% before we get to the detail. If there is 100 spaces required and the development would like to lessen that, it cannot be less than 50 spaces. 182 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:28,000 So, it has to be a maximum of 50% of what would be allowed. 183 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,000 So, how do they get there, right? 184 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:36,000 So, if, for example, a development is an infill development, they can reduce their parking spaces up to 10%. 185 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:48,000 If they are shared or off-site parking and there's off-site parking in a public facility, they can reduce their parking spaces up to 25%. 186 00:14:48,000 --> 00:15:03,000 On-street parking, there isn't a percentage there, but if you are proposing on-street parking, it has to be on your property frontage and it is a certain width of that frontage to count as one parking spaces. 187 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,000 So, that's how you can get it off of the site and use the on-street parking. 188 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:20,000 Now, the other caveat to that is that the mobility plan allows you to have parking on that particular street because there are certain streets in the city that does not allow for on-street parking. 189 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:30,000 Proximity to transit, so if you're close to the downtown transit center or the Med Park Transit Center, you can reduce your parking requirement up to 10%. 190 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:40,000 For affordable and senior housing, if you're proposing a use that meets that definition, you're able to reduce that up to 25%. 191 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:47,000 Now, again, all of this is under the review of the director of planning. 192 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:56,000 Bicycle or motorcycle spaces, if you're proposing above the bicycle requirement, you can reduce your parking requirements up to 5%. 193 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:12,000 And the last two here are just an opportunity that may not necessarily fit all the other ones above, but you just feel like there is a need for your development does not need as much parking and you're proposing less. 194 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,000 You can apply for a modification. 195 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,000 Again, that would be approved by the director. 196 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:26,000 Conversely, if you're proposing a number of parking spaces above, we talked about, you know, the 125 and above. 197 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,000 This is where you would submit your parking study. 198 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:35,000 And again, that would be under the director of planning's consideration. 199 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:41,000 Any questions on parking alternatives? 200 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,000 Commissioner Cole. 201 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:53,000 Okay, so the director has leeway on these parking minimums. 202 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,000 To what extent? 203 00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:02,000 So the percentages here are the most that they can be reduced. 204 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,000 Now, these are not automatic, right? 205 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000 But they would have to submit an application or submit their request in writing. 206 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:15,000 And then at that point, if they're within the percentage, then the director will then review it. 207 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,000 Now, there are parameters in which the director looks for. 208 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,000 It's not a simple yes and no. 209 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:29,000 Obviously, there's things to look at as far as context, as far as, you know, truly looking at what they provide is actually accurate and correct. 210 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:41,000 You know, in that slide shows an area of town, so am I right that there are still parking minimums in the Fry Street area, in that business area? 211 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000 Yeah, yeah. 212 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:57,000 That area, outside of the residential part of it, the apartments and things, but the businesses that rely on so much walk-up traffic, why put parking minimums on those people? 213 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:05,000 Because Chai owns the strip center, the small one. 214 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,000 On Welchin. 215 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,000 On Welchin, yeah. 216 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Heck, for three years, he couldn't fill the whole thing up, or more than that, because of parking minimums. 217 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,000 So he had to leave one of his spaces open, you know? 218 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,000 Yeah. 219 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:29,000 Look, I've talked about my opposition to parking minimums for a long time. 220 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:55,000 But I don't want to lose economic activity because of a couple of parking spaces, because I can cite, I mean, in the last 15 years alone, I know of so many business projects that couldn't get past the parking minimum, had solid plans, business plans, great concepts, awesome funding. 221 00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:10,000 But we're a couple spots short, and we're losing that economic activity from that business because of some parking minimums, in an area that relies on walk-up traffic anyway. 222 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:25,000 Well, Commissioner Colle, and if I can address Commissioner Colle's comment, as you know, you know, we worked on the area plan, or the smaller plan that is right there, and one of the things that we discussed was parking, right? 223 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:33,000 Obviously, parking is a big issue around the university specifically, and, you know, an overlay, there is an overlay. 224 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:40,000 We asked about is parking required in this particular area? Yes, and the overlay addresses that. 225 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:52,000 Now, with an overlay, we can revisit that, and again, identify a boundary for this area, specifically the Fry Street area, and possibly change it, if that is the case. 226 00:19:52,000 --> 00:20:05,000 Now, the existing businesses that have been there are grandfathered, right, because there's no additional parking, but those new ones, like the example you provided, that was a new development that was put in several years ago. 227 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:23,000 The most popular word in Denton, grandfather, because it seems like half of Denton is grandfathered. Does that make sense? I mean, continue, I'm sorry. 228 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:39,000 Commissioner Villarreal. Yeah, just hopping off Commissioner Colle's point, I know there's been movements in other cities of similar sizes to remove parking minimums entirely. Is that something that the city is considering at all? Is that a discussion that's come up here in the city of Denton? 229 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:51,000 We also have heard about that in other cities, and I think they're fairly large cities. We, there's no movement for the city of Denton, at least not at this time, is my quick answer. 230 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:59,000 Would there be any consideration for that, or would that be something that would come up before DCRC at some point? 231 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:17,000 That is a possible, I would recommend that that would be, you know, if that is something that the DCRC would entertain. We often ask, you know, for those DCR members here, you know, concluding items, if there's things that we could look into and then maybe discuss it at that early stage. 232 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,000 Appreciate it. 233 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,000 Thank you, Chair. 234 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:39,000 So, thank you for this, this is really clear to kind of set these things out. I guess, when I'm thinking back to your first slide of the types of things that these regulations are intended to mitigate or prevent in the city. 235 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:51,000 Would you say that there are a lot of developments to Commissioner Cole's point that were built before our current parking minimums and may not be conforming to that standard right now? 236 00:21:51,000 --> 00:22:12,000 There are, yeah, a handful. I mean, just areas that obviously are older in terms of, you know, their development, yes. And do those areas have large problems that we don't hear about commonly that we just don't try to go fix and we say, well, if they redevelop, I guess our parking standards will fix them, or are they operating relatively okay? 237 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:25,000 I think the, obviously, the area specific, I think we have to really pay attention to the context, right? This area that I think we're looking at and that kind of brought up the conversation, the Fry Street area, it's right there by the University. 238 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:38,000 And, you know, there is still a need for parking in some cases, but you probably see those parking just sort of being redirected further away from the area. 239 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:55,000 For the majority, those people that visit this area here, again, the Fry Street, are probably students, more or less. I think people that are from, you know, outside the University would either, you know, drive their vehicle or, you know, bike and walk, too, if that's the case. 240 00:22:55,000 --> 00:23:16,000 Yeah, so I understand these contextual areas. I'm thinking of, like, places that are different than that, like an older strip center that was built in 1972 when our parking minimums were lower. Do we have, like, a chronic absenteeism, not absentee, a vacancy issue in all of those strip centers, or do those businesses continue to run? 241 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:29,000 I don't think there is. I think the majority of, you know, the older strip centers are actually over-parked. I think they either were under a different code at the time or requested or got approval for additional parking spaces. 242 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:51,000 So I don't think they're suffering because of parking. I think it's just that maybe the businesses are no longer, you know, needed at that time, so that's sort of why you see some of our older strip centers empty. But for the most part, I don't think parking is an issue. I'm going to talk, maybe Hale has something to add. 243 00:23:51,000 --> 00:24:00,000 No, I'm just going to add typically, at least what we've seen with properties that are redeveloping or have new tenants coming in is that there is an excess of parking in a lot of our older facilities. 244 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:13,000 So, like, for example, along I-35, TxDOT's been doing a widening project and acquiring right-of-way. Most of those businesses are still coming in and having excess parking even after TxDOT might take out, you know, a row or two at the front of the business. 245 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:19,000 So I don't think there's a lack of parking at most of our commercial locations in Denton. 246 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Okay. And then lastly, I mean, this rubric, it seems very specific in, you know, I'm sure it comes from, you know, reasoned thought of processes of how much does this impact this, how much does that impact that. 247 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:53,000 It gives the impression to me that we have a high degree of certainty how much parking a given business or multifamily development or townhome development or something is going to need and going to use. 248 00:24:53,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Do we ever go back a few years later after that development has filled up and do some sort of parking usage survey to see whether these are actually accurate to how much is needed? 249 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:19,000 So the quick answer is no, but we do have and have received information, you know, as to say a multifamily development will come back and say, you know, out of the 100 parking spaces, you know, 80% is being used. 250 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:30,000 But again, there's so many different reasons or factors that go into it. It's hard to really come up with a, you know, a good answer to that question. 251 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:40,000 What I can tell you is, you know, as we work through, you know, our development code, you know, you know, seeing where we can get it closer to that number. 252 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,000 And it's very difficult, right, because each area is different, each use is different. 253 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:55,000 I mean, even with the same use that is, you know, you're going to have different factors, location, you know, types of people that, you know, are able to, you know, drive or whatnot. 254 00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:11,000 There's different factors, right. And I guess specifically to the spillover parking concern, are there other planning and regulation tools that can be used to manage that risk apart from off street parking requirements? 255 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:21,000 When you say spillover, like going on to streets further away from utilizing street parking in a manner that that creates externalities. 256 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:38,000 Yeah. Well, I know in this area, especially with the university as, you know, as we've already discussed in maybe previous discussions, you know, offering more public parking, working with the universities in terms of their permitting. 257 00:26:38,000 --> 00:27:00,000 We also discuss, you know, having, you know, residential permit programs. There's also other, you know, I guess it boils down to having that additional parking spaces, you know, and finding that right number, you know, if we can introduce park public parking in the fry street, we would, but we just don't have the ability at this time. 258 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:29,000 Yeah, I just, I just like to echo Commissioner calls comments that, you know, from everything from housing affordability to, you know, business flexibility to redevelopment efforts to just, just letting the city breathe and grow as, as demands happen instead of six years later, when it takes it to, oh yeah, okay, it shouldn't be, you know, 2.5 spaces, it should be 3.2 spaces, that kind of thing. 259 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:36,000 I, I, I'm not a lover of the number of off street parking permit spaces required. 260 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:51,000 And I don't want to get too much off posting, but I know that we do have some code amendments that we're bringing forward that we're trying to get to to that number of parking spaces and requirements. 261 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,000 Okay. 262 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:59,000 A couple other things that's in the required parking space. 263 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:25,000 The development code off street parking layout and design dimensional parking spaces obviously as developers are popular as I want to add parking. There's a certain minimum requirement per per standards as to how big a parking spaces so that's all covered under that, as well as drive vials, the drive out specifically I want to make mention that, although there's the mention that's stated in the development code. 264 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:30,000 The fire code has other requirements and codes that that need to comply with as well. 265 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,000 That needs to be part of that discussion. 266 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:54,000 Compact parking is a is something that we allow and, but only can be up to 5% surface materials, obviously each parking space needs to be constructed in a manner that's suitable for that area now, I can tell you that the previous parking is something that is allowed. 267 00:28:54,000 --> 00:29:14,000 If you're extending extending or increasing the number of parking spaces, but also on the other side of that spectrum. When you have rural development, then that parking material could be of a gravel, you know parking material so again, there's there's provisions for all types of scenarios. 268 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:28,000 The other item here that I listed here which has a little bit more information is location of parking spaces or parking areas. For the most part, the, the non residential development that you see here. 269 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:36,000 Developments that are not allowed to have parking between the building and the street. 270 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:46,000 Those are not. Those are not allowed. However, unless those developments are outside the MN or the MD. 271 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:54,000 So for example, if you have a property in this photo right here illustrates a bank. It's in the MN zoning district. 272 00:29:54,000 --> 00:30:10,000 Because of this provision, it was not allowed to have parking along Carol, rather it needed to locate its parking to the side or rear of the building so you see that parking here is on the side or the rear of that building. 273 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Now the building fronts Carol as well as Mulberry on the other side, because again, one, it is within the MN and MD zoning district. If it wasn't then you're able to so just again, give you some other, you know parking provisions that's in the code. 274 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:42,000 Other, other than being outside the MN. It also needs to be outside any gateway corridors and those are the Dallas drive the forward drive that leads into the downtown element locus as well. 275 00:30:42,000 --> 00:31:04,000 It needs to join an arterial collector. So, again, if you meet all those criteria, then you can provide parking in front, and then infill and satisfies front parking design those are also where you can provide parking in front if you can you meet all of those bulleted items that you see here listed. 276 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:13,000 The next item I have here is bicycle parking. You know we talked about vehicle parking. The code also has bicycle parking requirements. 277 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:32,000 It only applies to multifamily and non residential developments, and the requirement ratio here is one space for us right one bicycle parking space per 20 vehicle spaces. So for example, this is the all the development off of university and actor. 278 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:49,000 So for example if this development required 60 parking spaces, then three bicycle parking spaces be required, and so on and so forth. Now if there is a large enough development, where the parking spaces would be a lot. 279 00:31:49,000 --> 00:32:09,000 The applicant or developer can submit a request for reduction, and again that reduction is approved by the director planning. And then lastly the bicycle parking section of the code also talks about, you know placement of where those bicycle, either racks or storage or shelters 280 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:17,000 or can be located. There's, there's requirements there as far as location and design as well. 281 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:29,000 So I wanted to share this slide real quickly and again, to be just to be really quick and just kind of share some of the code amendments that we are bringing forward to the planning zoning Commission. 282 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:42,000 These items that you see here and I don't want to get off topic of our posting but really, just to explain that the DC RC has gone through a number of meetings to talk about these code amendments. 283 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:50,000 And then your future. This commission will see these code amendments come forward for your consideration. 284 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,000 And with that I'll stand for further questions. 285 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,000 Commissioner McDade. 286 00:32:55,000 --> 00:33:13,000 I have a question I heard you mentioned, local street, a couple of slides ago, and there's an issue about local street at the corner of locusts and prairie. There's a two small apartment complexes on the north and the south of that intersection. 287 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:27,000 And I'm curious I don't know how many apartments there are but apparently there's not enough parking if you try to go down east on prairie off of locusts, you cannot get down that way that's cars on both sides. 288 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:46,000 And I'm just curious what the ratio if they say there's 80 apartments, what would be the ratio of parking spaces that they would need because I know the neighbors have tried to talk to him you know there's there's a business complex across the street where there's only nobody there they're trying to get him to park there, but the residents refuse. 289 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:57,000 Yes, so when that development was developed and I'm assuming there was a parking ratio now to answer your question, we would have to know the bedroom count, you know, per unit to be able to come up with that number. 290 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:25,000 So, so it depends on the number of bedrooms is my quick response, but but again as it relates to that question and to what commission pro was asking. Obviously, you know, the lack of, you know, parking on site, or off site that off street that is sorry could affect the traffic pattern right of the street so that's where the traffic or parking requirements are needed to help address some of those concerns. 291 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,000 All right, thank you. 292 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,000 Commissioner Pruitt. Thank you. 293 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:46,000 I think in some places in the city I'm thinking like, if we just stay downtown for a second like along, which is at Oakland Street and right next to TWU there right, the parking I think is only allowed on one side of the street in order to make sure that two cars can safely pass each other. 294 00:34:46,000 --> 00:35:02,000 Is that something that the city evaluates when there are congestion issues due to street parking. Absolutely. And there's a process for that one sided parking only, and it goes through our transportation staff. 295 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:19,000 Ultimately it's approved by the Traffic Safety Commission and City Council, it's an ordinance that needs to be approved. Those typically come from property owners, but not to say that our staff that you know also reviews those locations. 296 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:39,000 Obviously, it's sort of initiated, either because of a situation, maybe the fire EMS truck was not able to get down that that particular streets street, therefore, there was a need to reevaluate or evaluate that street and allow for just one parking on one side. 297 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:51,000 The difficulty there is what I've heard is, well, if it's on one side, how do you choose which side, you know, you could be affecting one property owner because now all the parking is on one side and the other side is not. 298 00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:13,000 And then when it comes to, you know, solid waste, you know, you know, bins and whatnot that also pays a big factor but the fact is, those requests are received staff is also looking at them. And yes, we're trying to address the issue of the ability to get through that particular street. 299 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:30,000 Okay. And then just two small things one when you're showing the bike parking. I've always been curious what the process is because if I'm remembering correctly our code requires bike racks to support the bicycle in at least two locations, and I've seen many of these 300 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:48,000 types of, I think they call them wave racks, that if the bicycles are parked in this method like shown in the picture, they're really only supported in one place. So, help me understand at what point in the planning or civil engineering plans or inspection process. 301 00:36:48,000 --> 00:37:01,000 Do we even find out what type of bike racks they're installing and what that plan is so to answer, I believe it's during the building permit stage, because that's I mean they will show it, they'll show a location in there. 302 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:15,000 There is a site plan or zoning compliance plan but it's not till the building permit state that will actually see it. Okay. And then last but not least because I forgot at the beginning I apologize if you could go back to your map that shows the MD zoning district. 303 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:23,000 Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe before the 2019 code. 304 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:46,000 The area that was the central business district was similarly exempt from parking minimums is that correct that is correct. Okay, so there are areas that we've seen growth in and see future growth in north and south of the square, which currently are not exempt from parking minimums but used to be exempt is that correct that is correct. 305 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:53,000 Anybody else. 306 00:37:53,000 --> 00:38:05,000 Thank you. Thank you very much. Look forward to bringing what we've discussed with the parking requirements on DC RC bringing you that absolutely. Yeah, absolutely. There will be some tweaks to what we just learned today. 307 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:19,000 Anyway, appreciate it. Okay, moving through our next work session item is clarification on tonight's agenda. 308 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:28,000 We'll take item two is the minutes. There were just some slight corrections to that those got emailed back out earlier this week. 309 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:35,000 Any further discussion or questions on that item. No, okay. 310 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,000 Consent agenda item. 311 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,000 Any questions for staff on that item. 312 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:47,000 We've got one final plat on our consent agenda. 313 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:53,000 Okay, items for individual consideration is for a. 314 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:58,000 And. 315 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:04,000 Okay, I know we've got some people probably on vacation right.

Good evening. This is a final plat for the Mayhill 380 business park edition. 322 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:42,000 At this time, they have not met all of our review criteria. So staff is recommending denial, but we have received a letter requesting an extension and we do not have opposition to that extension. 323 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:47,000 Okay, and that'll be August 10th. I think. Yes. Okay, unless they withdraw or something like that, of course. 324 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:53,000 Okay, questions on this item. 325 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,000 Thank you, Mia. 326 00:39:54,000 --> 00:40:06,000 I know with 4B Commissioner Cole has to recuse himself. So we'll let that happen. And you're being Cameron again. So. 327 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:19,000 Okay, yes, so this is a sorry. This is a preliminary plat for Hunter Ranch phase one. Similarly, they have not met all of our approval criteria. 328 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:28,000 So staff is recommending denial, but we have received a letter requesting an extension and we have no opposition to that extension. 329 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:44,000 Questions on that extension request. Okay. You're going to stay up here for 4C. Let me bring Commissioner Cole back in. 330 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:59,000 Is that you? Hello. Hello. Angie Mangler, Senior Planner. 331 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:21,000 This is a final plat request for the Luxe edition. It is a three lot plat in our ETJ. When the packet initially went out to you all, they were not quite ready for approval. However, they have met all of our criteria and staff is recommending approval for this plat. 332 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:31,000 I don't think we got a copy of that, did we? I believe it went out Monday afternoon or Tuesday. 333 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:53,000 Yes, I believe it went out Monday afternoon. We can confirm if you did not receive that though. I'm going to look it up and see. And we're looking at the one that's recommended for approval. 334 00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:06,000 Yes. Okay. All right. Very good. Questions on this one. Okay.

This one is actually mine. 336 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:29,000 So this is a final replat for the London Dairy Edition, lot 1A, block 1. If you recall at the last regularly scheduled PNZ meeting, you all considered a variance request and approved that request. 337 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:39,000 That then allows staff to review and approve the civil engineering plans and so they're ready now with the final replat for ultimately the development of that site. 338 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:50,000 So staff is recommending approval as they have met all of our criteria.
