LEANNA WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TEXAS STAFF PRESENTATION.

GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

MICHAEL CHENOWSKI PLANNING DEPARTMENT.

UH, SO THIS REQUEST IS THE FIRST STEP IN THE ZONING PROCESS.

UH, THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED A REQUEST TO CHANGE THE DESIGNATED ZONING DISTRICT OF THEIR PROPERTY IN ORDER TO DEVELOP, UH, THE PROPERTY WITH RETAIL GAS STATION AND CONVENIENCE STORE AND CAR WASH.

UH, SO SOME OF THE SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS, THIS PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY INCLUDED IN OUR, UH, PUD TOD AND THE SMART CODE DESIGNATION OF CONVENTIONAL DEVELOPMENT SECTOR.

THE NEXT STEP IN THE PROCESS FOR THIS APPLICANT WOULD BE TO SUBMIT A MINOR PUD TO ESTABLISH THE BASE ZONING DISTRICT.

IN THIS CASE, THE APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED TO BE REMOVED FROM THE SMART CODE AND APPLY FOR THE CONVENTIONAL ZONING, UH, FOR THEIR DEVELOPMENT.

SO SOME OF THE SURROUNDING AREA, THE PROPERTY SURROUNDED BY, UH, COMMERCIALLY ZONED PROPERTIES AS WELL AS INTERIM SINGLE FAMILY PROPERTY.

UH, OFF 180 3, A TOLL ROAD, UH, TO THE WEST IS COUNTY ROAD 2 6 9 AND TO THE EAST, UH, UH, JUST EAST OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.

UH, IT KIND OF LOOKS LIKE MAYBE A DIRT ROAD FROM THIS, UH, VIEW.

UM, THERE WERE NO PREVIOUS ZONING CASES FOR THIS PROPERTY.

UH, THERE IT DOES HAVE ACCESS TO UTILITIES.

UM, A NEIGHBORHOOD OUTREACH WAS CONDUCTED.

THERE WERE NO OBJECTIONS SHOWN AND NO CHANGES, UH, TO THE PROPOSAL NOTED.

UH, SO THIS ZONING REQUEST IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE EXISTING ZONING DISTRICTS OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES AS WELL AS THE FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION LISTED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

UH, THE PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT ALSO INCLUDES ALLOWABLE AND PROHIBITED USES.

UH, SO SOME OF THE ALLOWABLE USES INCLUDE COMMERCIAL, RETAIL, RESTAURANT, UH, OR CONVENIENCE STORE WITH GAS STATION.

UM, THE CONVENIENCE STORE AND GAS STATION DEVELOPMENT SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE A RESTAURANT AS PART OF THE BUILDING.

THE REMAINING DEVELOPMENT CAN INCLUDE A MINIMUM OF 10,000 SQUARE FEET OF COMMERCIAL RETAIL AND OR RESTAURANT USES THAT ARE NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE GAS STATION.

UM, PROHIBITED USES, UH, FOR THIS PROPERTY WOULD INCLUDE ANIMAL HOSPITAL EQUIPMENT AND FURNITURE, UH, SALES FARM AND TRUCK GARDENS, FUNERAL HOMES, MANUFACTURED HOME SALES, UH, OFFICE WAREHOUSE, UH, TRANSPORTATION RELATED FACILITIES, NEW VEHICLE OR MAJOR EQUIPMENT SALES, UH, VEHICLE BODY SHOPS, UH, WHOLESALE ACTIVITIES, UH, WITH LESS THAN 3,500 SQUARE FEET AND CAR WASH.

GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONER.

GOOD EVENING COMMITTEE MEMBERS.

SO, UH, MY NAME IS IMRAN AND, UH, I'M OWNER AT THE PROPERTY AT 1 9 0 5 PINI PATH, CITY OF LEANDER.

THANKS FOR GIVING ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.

LIKE, UH, I'M IN FAVOR OF THIS, UH, MINOR ZONING CHANGE BECAUSE, UH, THE REASON IS THAT I PASS BY THIS PROPERTY ALMOST EVERY DAY.

SO THAT'S MY ROUTINE COMMUTE.

SO WHENEVER A PLACE PASSED BY THIS PROPERTY, LIKE THIS PROPERTY IS UNDERDEVELOPED AND THE PROPERTY AROUND IT, THERE ARE LIKE INDUSTRIAL STRUCTURES NEARBY, EVEN THE IN STRUCTURES BEHIND IT.

SO THERE IS A BRIDGE IN FRONT OF THAT PROPERTY.

SO THIS BEING A HARD CORNER OF, UH, 180 3 AND HERE AWAY, IT HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED YET.

IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED LONG AGO.

SO WHEN I SAW THE NOTICE ON THE PROPERTY, I JUST WENT ONLINE TO SEE WHAT'S COMING UP AND, UH, I JUST, UH, CAME UP TO KNOW BY SITTING THE, BY SEEING THE COMMENTS OF THE CITY STAFF THAT, UH, THERE IS A RETAIL, UH, C-STORE AND, UH, I THINK A RESTAURANT COMING UP.

SO IT'S A VERY LIVELY DEVELOPMENT AND BECAUSE OF THIS, THE ENTIRE CORRIDOR IS UNDERDEVELOPED.

SO IF THIS STARTS, LIKE IT GIVES A MOMENTUM IF THIS, UH, IF THIS IS APPROVED AND IF THERE IS A DEVELOPMENT HERE, I THINK THE CORRIDOR, THIS WILL BOOST DEVELOPMENT ON THE CORRIDOR.

AND WE ALSO HAVE PROPERTY DOWN THE ROAD ON RONALD REAGAN.

SO I THINK, I THINK THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT FOR US AND WE SEE IT AS A POSITIVE.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, SIR.

I DO NOT HAVE ANYONE ELSE SIGNED UP.

IS THERE ANYONE PRESENT THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? YES, SIR.

UM, PLEASE COME UP TO THE MICROPHONE.

YOU CAN SPEAK YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS INTO THE MICROPHONE AND YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO, UH, ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK.

UH, MY NAME IS SUNIL BANINI AND ONE OF THE OWNERS OF THE EDISON PROPERTY, THE LAST REMAINING SINGLE FAMILY THERE, UH, IN THE PICTURE.

SO I, UH, ECHO WHAT HE JUST SAID.

UM, I THINK IT IS PRIME FOR DEVELOPMENT, UM, FOR SERVICE ORIENTED INDUSTRY.

UM, AND THEN WE ALL KNOW 180 3, YOU KNOW, IS EXPANDING AND ALSO HERO IS EXPANDING, AND WE HAVE PLANS TO, YOU KNOW, ALSO DEVELOP OUR, UM, CHANGE THE ZONING FOR OUR SINGLE FAMILY.

SO IT'S JUST A WELCOMING THING, YOU KNOW, IT'S A WIN-WIN, YOU KNOW, FOR EVERYONE.

SO, AND IT ALSO IMPROVES THE FOOT TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE TRAFFIC TO THE AREA.

THANK YOU.

AND SIR, IF YOU WOULDN'T MIND FILLING OUT A COMMENT CARD AND YOU CAN HAND IT TO MR. TVAR DOWN AT THE END.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE PRESENT THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS? SEEING NONE, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND OPEN IT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

COMMISSIONER COSGROVE, I HAVE NOTHING.

YOU, I KNOW YOU MENTIONED IT TWICE.

MM-HMM.

AND WE GOT CORRECTED ON IT.

THAT'S NOT PART OF IT.

SO I WANNA BE REALLY CLEAR THAT THERE'S NOT A CAR WASH BEING REQUESTED FOR THIS ZONING CHANGE WITH THIS POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT.

OKAY.

YES, IT'S, IT'S PART OF THE PROHIBITED USES.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

OKAY.

UM, JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE NOT APPROVING THAT .

UM, AND THEN I ALSO NOTICED ON THE TRANSPORTATION PLAN REQUIREMENTS THAT THE PROPERTY DOES INCLUDE FUTURE EXPANSION OF CR 2 69.

SO IS THIS DEVELOPMENT GONNA HELP WITH THAT EXPANSION OF 2 69 DURING THE REVIEW PROCESS? WE WILL, UM, GO THROUGH THAT WITH HIM ON THAT UPGRADE AND EXPANSION, BUT YES, IT WOULD.

OKAY, GREAT.

[00:10:01]

STAFF PRESENTATION.

THANK YOU COMMISSION.

UH, THIS IS THE FIRST STEP OF THE ZONING PROCESS.

THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED A REQUEST TO CHANGE THE DESIGNATED ZONING DISTRICT OF THE PROPERTY, UH, FROM LC DASH TWO DASH B, LOCAL COMMERCIAL TO MINOR PUD PLAN UNIT DEVELOPMENT WITH THE BASE ZONING DISTRICT OF LC DASH TWO DASH A.

UH, THIS IS IN ORDER TO ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOCAL COMMERCIAL USES WITH THE ADDITIONAL USE OF OFFICE WAREHOUSE.

UM, ONE OF THE SPECIAL, UM, THINGS ABOUT THIS CASE IS THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE IS TO PERMANENTLY MEMORIALIZE THE EXISTING SPECIAL USE THAT'S ON THE PROPERTY CURRENTLY.

AND THAT ALLOWS FOR THAT, UM, OFFICE WAREHOUSE USE FOR 10 YEARS.

IT'S FROM 2018 TO 2028.

UH, SO IT WOULD BE PROPOSED, UH, SITE TO BE REZONED WILL BE, IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE LOCAL COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, UH, WITH THAT ALLOWABLE OFFICE WAREHOUSE, LAND USE PERMANENTLY.

UH, THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED TO THE EAST, UH, AND SOUTH OF THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES.

IN ADDITION TO SINGLE FAMILY, ONE OF THE PROPERTIES LAYS WITHIN THE, UH, ETJ AND IS ASSOCIATED WITH A FU UH, FUTURE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT UPON DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY.

UH, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS ALSO NORTH OF THE HOMESTEAD SUBDIVISION, TWO FAMILY HOMES AND WEST OF A LC LOCAL COMMERCIAL ZONE PROPERTY WITH A SPECIAL USE UNTIL 2024 TO ALLOW FOR GENERAL COMMERCIAL USES.

ALL RIGHT, AND JUST TO KIND OF GIVE YOU AN IDEA, HERE'S THAT TWO FAMILY, THEN YOU HAVE THE LC USE.

THEY HAVE THE SPECIAL USE FOR THOSE GENERAL COMMERCIAL USES RIGHT THERE.

YOU HAVE THAT SFS SINGLE FAMILY ZONING RIGHT HERE ALONG THE FRONTAGE OF BAGHDAD.

AND THEN UP HERE IS WHERE THAT, UH, FUTURE ANNEXATION AGREEMENT IS.

UM, THE PROPERTY CONTAINS SOME TREE COVER, UH, TO THE REAR OF THE PROPERTY, UH, PROPERTY, WHICH WE'LL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH OUR, WITH THE CITY OF LAND'S TREE MITIGATION REQUIREMENTS.

AND CURRENTLY IT HAS A COMMERCIAL BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY THAT IS THAT WAREHOUSE USE.

YOU CAN SEE THE TREE COVERAGE A LITTLE BIT TO THE REAR THERE.

AND THEN HERE'S THE EXISTING BUILDING.

UM, THIS PROPERTY DOES HAVE POTENTIAL ACCESS TO WATER FROM, UH, NEARBY NEIGHBORHOODS OR BY EXTENDING, UH, THE WATERLINE FROM BAGHDAD.

UM, THE PROPERTY MAY ALSO HAVE TO EXTEND WASTEWATER FROM BAGHDAD IN, UH, OR POTENTIALLY ACCESS IT FROM THAT NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL.

UH, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WAS ANNEXED INTO THE CITY IN 2016, AND THERE'S BEEN A COUPLE OF ZONING CASES ON IT.

UH, ONE WAS THE ORIGINAL ZONING, UH, THE CURRENT ZONING IN 2017.

AND THEN THE SPECIAL USE CAME IN IN 2018 TO ALLOW FOR THE OFFICE WAREHOUSE FOR 10 YEARS.

UH, DEVELOPMENT MEETING WASN'T REQUIRED ON THIS ONE, AND PUBLIC NOTICES HAVE BEEN MAILED OUT TO EVERYONE, UH, WITHIN 200 FEET BY THE CITY.

UH, THE AGENT HAS ALSO PERFORMED A NEIGHBORHOOD OUTREACH, UH, TO ALL PROPERTY OWNERS, SINGLE FAMILY AND HOMEOWNER ASSOCIATIONS WITHIN 500 FEET.

UH, NO CONCERNS HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP OTHER THAN WHAT WAS SUBMITTED ON THE QUESTIONNAIRE.

A RESIDENT WANTED TO VERIFY THAT IT WOULD NOT CHANGE THE CURRENT USE OF THE SITE.

UM, BUT NO ADDITIONAL REQUESTS WERE MADE BY THAT RESIDENT.

UM, AFTER THAT, NOT TO US.

THIS ZONING REQUEST IS, UH, COMPATIBLE WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION LISTED IN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, UH, FUTURE LAND USE MAP, UH, AS A MINOR.

PUD AND STAFF SUPPORTS THIS REQUEST WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ONLY ALLOWED USE OTHER THAN LC USES IS OFFICE WAREHOUSE, WHICH CURRENTLY EXISTS AND IS ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL BE AVAILABLE AFTER THE PUBLIC HEARING.

GREAT, THANK YOU.

IS THERE AN APPLICANT PRESENTATION? NO PUBLIC PRESENTATION, JUST HERE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.

THANK YOU, SIR.

OKAY.

HERE IN THAT I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING, I DO NOT HAVE ANYONE SIGNED UP VIA A CARD.

HOWEVER, WITH OUR COMMENTS, THERE ARE TWO THAT SAID THEY WOULD, UH, LIKE TO SPEAK THEIR COMMENTS TONIGHT.

SO I'M JUST GONNA SEE IF THEY'RE HERE IN THE AUDIENCE AND WANT TO DO SO.

MR. MARK MUNSON? NOPE.

WELL, HE WAS FOUR.

UM, AND MR. IRAN'S SINCE OKAY.

HE WAS FOUR.

OKAY.

SO SEEING THAT I WILL READ THE, UH, OTHER FOURS INTO THE RECORD.

IT'S ACTUALLY KIND OF A GOOD FEELING WHEN I'M, I'M GONNA READ A LIST OF FOURS TONIGHT.

SO JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS, EVERYONE I'M ABOUT TO READ IS FOR THIS PROJECT, UH, BERNARD ROBINSON, TERRY JACOBS, STEVEN MCKINNEY, JARED MA, AND IF I MISPRONOUNCE YOUR NAME AND YOU'RE LISTENING, I APOLOGIZE.

[00:15:01]

HAN MOEN.

AND EFAN DAVA.

IS THERE ANYONE PRESENT THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? SHOULD HAVE STARTED WITH THAT, SORRY.

ALRIGHT.

SEEING NONE THEN.

I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND OPEN IT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

VICE CHAIR LANDRUM.

I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

COMMISSIONER OLIVER? UM, YEAH, I'VE GOT A COUPLE OF THINGS I'D LIKE TO ADDRESS HERE WITH THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT.

UM, ONE, UM, I'M NOTICING THAT THERE ARE NO FUTURE STREET PLANS FOR THIS.

WE'RE ABOUT TO PUT, UH, I WAS TRYING TO CALCULATE IT HERE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE PROBABLY MAYBE A COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND LESS THAN A, LESS THAN THAN THAT, UM, SQUARE FOOTAGE OF COMMERCIAL.

AND I'M JUST WONDERING, BECAUSE THAT STREET REMINDS ME A LOT OF HAZELWOOD BETWEEN LEANDER AND, UM, HORIZON PARK, WHICH IS A LOT OF COMMERCIAL UP AND DOWN THAT STREET, WHICH I ACTUALLY USE EVERY DAY.

UM, AND I'M JUST, YOU KNOW, WORRIED THAT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT GOING HERE ON A STREET THAT'S NARROW AND DOESN'T, DOESN'T REALLY SUPPORT THAT KIND OF TRAFFIC FLOW.

UM, CAN Y'ALL SPEAK TO THAT OR WHAT, WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO? LIKE, ARE WE GONNA WAIT FOR BUSINESSES TO GO IN THERE AND DIDN'T DEVELOP THE STREET AND EXPANDED OR LEAVE IT AS IT IS? I MEAN, CASE IN POINT WE'RE, WE'RE KIND OF GOOD ABOUT NOT DEVELOPING STREETS WHEN THINGS GO IN LIKE ROUSE AND, AND RAIDER WAY, WHICH IS NOW FINALLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT.

RIGHT.

GOOD EVENING.

JEFF GUERRERO, UH, AGENT FOR THE APPLICANT.

UH, AS FAR AS, UH, STREET DEDICATION IS CONCERNED, WE ARE DEDICATING, UH, RIGHT OF WAY AS PART OF THE FINAL PLAT CORRECT THAT, UH, WE HAVE IN, IN CURRENT, UH, REVIEW WITH, WITH THE CITY RIGHT NOW.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

I MEAN, THE DEVELOPMENT LOOKS FINE IN THAT, IN THAT REGARD TOO, SO I I DO APPRECIATE THAT.

I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THERE'S GONNA BE SOME PLANS TO AT LEAST EXPAND AND SUPPORT THE TRAFFIC THAT EVENTUALLY BE FLOWING THROUGH THERE.

DEFINITELY THE, UH, I I WANNA SAY RIGHT NOW THAT MOCKINGBIRD IS, IS TECHNICALLY AN ACCESS EASEMENT.

SO WHAT WE'RE DOING IS, UH, MEMORIALIZING THE, THE RIGHT OF WAY, UH, WITH, WITH THE PLAID DEDICATION.

GREAT.

GREAT.

SO, UM, AND WHILE I HAVE YOU HERE, SO I DID NOTICE THAT YOU'RE, YOU'RE GONNA BE REQUIRED TO DO A TYPE A ARCHITECTURAL, UM, DESIGN OF THIS.

IS THERE ANY PLANS TO UPGRADE WHAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE IN PLACE? 'CAUSE YOU'RE KIND OF BUILDING OFF OF THAT.

UH, I BELIEVE THE, THE INTENT IS TO CONTINUE, UH, WITH THE WAREHOUSE, UM, WAREHOUSE STYLE.

UM, AND THEN, UH, IT WILL COMPLY WITH, WITH TYPE A, UM, UH, UM, WITH, WITH THE TYPE A, UM, OH GOSH, ARCHITECTURAL, ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS.

IT'S OKAY.

YEAH, SORRY.

UM, AND, AND I CAN, UH, I CAN UH, ASK THE, UH, OWNER IF HE INTENDS TO, TO UPGRADE THE, UH, THE EXISTING FACILITY AS WELL AS PART OF WHAT, WHAT WE'RE GONNA BRING IN FOR THE SITE PLAN.

OKAY.

AND THEN FROM A, UH, WITH SOME NEIGHBORHOOD TO THE VERY REAR OF IT, UM, I JUST WANNA ASK THE CITY, WHAT KIND OF BUFFER DO WE HAVE IN PLACE BETWEEN THESE, YOU KNOW, OFFICE WAREHOUSES THAT ARE GOING IN AND THE WHAT LOOKS LIKE, UH, THERE'S GONNA BE SOME RESIDENTIAL LOTS THAT ARE GONNA BE BORDERING BEHIND THIS AND, AND THAT'S WHEN A MASONRY AGREEMENT COULD BE? IT DEPENDS ON WHAT THEY SUBMIT IN THEIR SITE PLAN, BUT TYPICALLY I THINK IT'S A 50 FOOT, 50 FOOT.

OKAY.

THAT SEEMS GOOD.

AND THEN TREE LANDS, I KNOW THERE'S NOT A LOT OF TREES ALREADY ON THERE, DO WE, ARE WE GONNA GET AN IDEA OF LIKE WHAT KIND OF TREE OR, UM, UH, I GUESS PLANTING PLAN, LANDSCAPING PLAN THERE'S GONNA BE AND YEAH, THEY WOULD, WITH THE SITE DEVELOPMENT, THEY WOULD HAVE TO MEET OUR MINIMUM.

MINIMUM.

OKAY.

MINIMUM STANDARDS AND THEN WE WOULD MAKE THEM GO THROUGH OUR TREE MITIGATION AND, UH, PRESERVATION ORDINANCE AS WELL.

OKAY.

THAT'S ALL I HAD.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU COMMISSIONER MOSS.

UM, MY ONLY QUESTION IS, UM, WHEN IT SAYS WILL, UH, UH, UH, THE POTENTIAL ACCESS TO WASTE TO WATER AND WASTEWATER, UM, IT'LL BE FROM, UH, THE NEIGHBORHOOD, HOW WILL THAT IMPACT THE NEIGHBORHOOD? WILL IT LIKE SLOW DOWN THE WATER FLOW? WILL IT LIKE, YOU KNOW, NOT HAVE AS, YOU KNOW, AS MUCH PRESSURE BECAUSE ALL THIS OTHER STUFF IS BEING BUILT? I'M JUST WONDERING FOR THE NEIGHBORHOODS AROUND.

IT'S, IT'S DEFINITELY THEY'RE, THEY'RE THERE.

MM-HMM.

.

UM, BUT WE WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH STUDIES AND REVIEWS IN ORDER TO SEE IF THAT CAPACITY IS THERE AND ABLE TO SERVE IT.

OKAY.

SO, ALRIGHT, THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO KNOW.

THANK YOU.

THAT'S IT.

COMMISSIONER COSGROVE? I'M GOOD RIGHT NOW.

ALRIGHT.

AND I HAVE NOTHING.

THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM.

UH, MOTION TO APPROVE.

SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE BY COMMISSIONER OLIVER, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER COSGROVE.

THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS.

MICHAEL CHENOWSKI, PLANNING DEPARTMENT.

UH, SO THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED THE REQUEST TO CHANGE THE DESIGNATED ZONING DISTRICT OF THEIR PROPERTY IN ORDER TO DEVELOP, UH, WITH LIGHT INDUSTRIAL, FLEX INDUSTRIAL, AND OTHER COMMERCIAL USES.

UH, SOME SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR THIS, UH, PROPOSAL.

UH, THE PROPERTY IS SUBJECT TO ANNEXATION DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

UH, THIS REQUIRES ANNEXATION AT THE TIME OF DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE ANNEXATION WILL BE REVIEWED CONCURRENTLY WITH THE ZONING REQUEST WHEN IT GOES TO CITY COUNCIL.

UH, THIS PROPOSAL, THIS PROJECT, UH, IS LOCATED WITHIN THE EMPLOYMENT CENTER, UH, WHICH ENCOURAGES CAMPUS STYLE DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE PROPOSAL INCLUDES A ZONING THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR FLEX OFFICE SPACE AND RESTRICTS OTHER USES, UH, THAT WOULD NOT SUPPORT THIS TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE CAMPUS STYLE DEVELOPMENT.

UM, SO SOME OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE EITHER ALREADY ZONED AS HEAVY COMMERCIAL, MAYBE BEING USED AS HEAVY COMMERCIAL, UH, OR THEY'RE, UH, INTERIM SINGLE FAMILY RURAL, UH, LARGE LOT RESIDENTIAL.

UM, SO THIS PROPERTY ALSO CONTAINS SIGNIFICANT TREE COVER, UH, WHICH WOULD NEED TO ALSO COMPLY WITH THE LEANERS, UH, TREE MITIGATION ORDINANCE.

UH, THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY PREVIOUS ZONING CASES FOR THIS PROPERTY.

AND SOME OF THE, UH, FUTURE TRANSPORTATION ALONG THIS, UH, PROPOSAL IS THE FUTURE EXTENSION OF EAST SAN GABRIEL PARKWAY.

UH, ON THE NORTH SIDE, ON THE EAST SIDE IS RAIDER WAY, UH, OF THE SOUTH SIDE IS THE EXPANSION OF HERO WAY.

AND ON THE WEST SIDE IS THE EXPANSION OF, UH, COUNTY ROAD TWO 70.

UM, SO A NEIGHBORHOOD OUTREACH WAS, UH, MAILED OUT, UH, TO PROPERTY OWNERS.

UM, ANY FACADE FACING, UH, HERE AWAY MUST FOLLOW THE TYPE C ARCHITECTURAL COMPONENT.

ANY FACADE FACING, UH, SAN GABRIEL PARKWAY MUST FOLLOW THE TYPE B ARCHITECTURAL COMPONENT.

AND NO MORE THAN ONE CONVENIENT STORE WITH THE ASSOCIATED, UH, OUTDOOR FUEL SALES WOULD BE PERMITTED WITHIN THIS DEVELOPMENT.

I DO NOT HAVE ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.

IS THERE ANYONE PRESENT THAT WOULD LIKE TO? SEEING NONE.

I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND OPEN IT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

COMMISSIONER COSGROVE, ONE QUICK QUESTION.

WHY TYPE C ALONG HERO INSTEAD OF TYPE B? UM, COMMISSIONER MAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR QUESTION.

UM, AND I'M, THOSE ARE THE WRONG NAMES.

COSGROVE.

COSGROVE.

THERE'S, THEY'RE SWITCHED RIGHT THERE.

HEY, , I THINK YOU'RE SITTING IN THE WRONG SEAT THERE.

SINGS, SINGS, SINGS.

.

[00:25:01]

THANKS CHAIR.

THERE YOU GO.

, MAKE SURE YOUR MOUTH RIGHT.

.

YEAH, YOU'RE GOOD.

I PROMISE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

IT'S FINE.

, IF THAT'S THE WORST THING THAT HAPPENED TODAY.

IT WAS A GOOD DAY.

THERE YOU GO.

THERE YOU GO.

THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

THE MEETING IS SAVED.

UM, .

SO, UH, THE, THE ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS, UM, FOR, FOR KIND OF MIDDLE TO LARGER SCALE, UM, UH, BUILDINGS, UM, OF THE SIZE WE'RE, WE'RE PROPOSING THE TYPE B STANDARD IS REALLY TOUGH FOR US TO FOLLOW.

IT JUST THE REQUIREMENTS OF IT DO NOT ALLOW FOR, UM, THAT BUILDING TYPE.

UM, WE PROCEEDED WITH, UH, ARCHITECTURAL STYLE D WE FELT THAT IT WAS APPROPRIATE TO ENHANCE THOSE STANDARDS ALONG THE TWO MAJOR THOROUGHFARES THAT BOUND US ON THE NORTH AND SOUTH END.

AND SO WE ENHANCED THAT TO THE C REQUIREMENT IN ADDITION TO THE ARCHITECTURAL OR THE, UM, GLAZING AND DOOR REQUIREMENT MINIMUM OF 5%.

UM, SO WE FELT THOSE TWO STANDARDS WOULD BE APPROPRIATE ALONG BOTH THE NORTH AND SOUTH FRONTAGE.

WELL YOU'RE ASKING FOR B ON THE, ON THE NORTH, RIGHT? Y YES.

WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO B ON THE NORTH? YES.

SO WHEN WE DO B ON THE NORTH, WHY CAN'T WE DO B ON THE SOUTH? SO THE NORTH SIDE WE'RE GONNA HAVE SMALLER, 'CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF TREES ON THE NORTH SIDE.

AND SO ON THE NORTH SIDE, I THINK OUR, OUR BUILDING THAT'S FIVE TO SEVEN YEARS AWAY, BUT ON THE NORTH SIDE WE ANTICIPATE OUR BUILDING DESIGN WILL BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN ON THE SOUTH END.

MAYBE SMALLER BUILDINGS, UM, THAT COULD ACCOMMODATE THAT HIGHER ARCHITECTURAL STANDARD.

OKAY.

I'M GOOD FOR RIGHT NOW.

COMMISSIONER WEST.

OKAY.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT IT'S GONNA BE? YES, AND I'M, I'M HAPPY TO SHARE, UH, OR, OR MAYBE THROUGH ROBIN.

HAPPY TO SHARE SOME OF OUR OTHER PROJECTS, UH, THAT WE COMPLETED IN GEORGETOWN AND HUDU.

UM, THIS WILL BE A, A DIFFERENT STYLE, BUT PRIMARILY TARGETED AT MA LIGHT MANUFACTURING.

UM, HIGH TECH MANUFACTURING, UH, PROBABLY SOME WAREHOUSING AND DISTRIBUTION MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE USES AS WELL.

UM, ALL, ALL WILL BE INTERNAL TO THE BUILDINGS.

UM, THE CONSTRUCTION IS TYPICALLY TILT UP CONCRETE, UH, PAINTED AND TEXTURED ACCORDINGLY PER THE, PER THE CODE.

ALRIGHT, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

COMMISSIONER OLIVER? NO, I'M GOOD.

NO QUESTIONS.

VICE CHAIRMAN LAND TRIPP.

I'VE GOT A QUESTION ON THE NORTH SIDE.

I NOTICED THAT, UH, FROM THE AERIAL THAT THERE ARE MORE TREES ON THAT NORTH SIDE AND IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO TRY TO ACCOMMODATE SOME OF THE TREE COVER THERE WITH THE SMALLER BUILDINGS.

WAS THAT YOUR INTENT OR? YES.

UH, THANK YOU.

COMMISSIONER LANTRIP, ASSUMING THAT'S THE RIGHT NAME.

OKAY.

.

.

GOOD MAN.

Y'ALL ARE MAKING ME NERVOUS UP HERE THOUGH, .

UM, THAT'S, THAT'S, YOU KNOW, THIS'LL BE A, A FIVE PHASED, MAYBE EVEN SEVEN PHASED PROJECT, AS I MENTIONED, OVER FIVE TO SEVEN YEARS, PROBABLY MAYBE EVEN 10.

UM, WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN OUR TREE SURVEY BACK YET.

WE DO ANTICIPATE THAT THAT AREA OF THE PROPERTY, ESPECIALLY THE NORTHEAST CORNER, WILL HAVE SIGNIFICANT TREE COVERAGE.

UM, AS WE GET TO THAT PART OF THE PROJECT.

UM, WE'LL, WE'LL HAVE TO TRY TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE TREES IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

RIGHT NOW THE PLAN IS SMALLER BUILDINGS, UM, TO ACCOMMODATE THAT, BUT THAT COULD CHANGE.

I JUST DON'T KNOW AT THIS TIME.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

THAT'S MY ONLY QUESTION.

THANK YOU.

AND I HAVE NO QUESTIONS.

IT'S JUST A STATEMENT.

I'M ACTUALLY KIND OF EXCITED TO SEE 115 ACRE DEVELOPMENT COME IN THAT'S GONNA BE KIND OF THIS SIZE AND THIS, THIS STATE, SO I APPRECIATE THAT.

THAT BEING SAID, THIS IS, UH, ACTION ITEM.

LEANDER WILLIAMSON AND TRAVIS COUNTY'S TEXAS STAFF PRESENTATION.

GOOD EVENING.

UM, SO I KNOW WE JUST UPDATED OUR, OUR SIGN ORDINANCE, UM, AND AFTER WE FINISHED, UM, WE FOUND THREE ITEMS THAT WE LEFT OUT THAT WE THOUGHT WERE IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO BRING FORWARD.

WE HAVE A COUPLE OF PENDING APPLICATIONS THAT ARE DEPENDING ON THESE AMENDMENTS.

UM, THE, THE FIRST ONE IS, UM, OUR ORDINANCE HAS A, A REQUIREMENT THAT STATES YOUR SIGN.

IF IT'S INTERNALLY LIT, IT CAN'T BE PREDOMINANTLY WHITE.

AND UH, THE ISSUE IS THIS, THIS TYPE OF SIGN CAN BE REALLY BRIGHT FOR CARS, UM, WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING AT NIGHT.

AND, UM, WE HAVE ADDED STANDARDS TO THE ORDINANCE WITH OUR, OUR UPDATE, UM, THAT HELP PREVENT, UH, THE BRIGHT LIGHTS SHINING INTO

[00:30:01]

SO WE'RE PROPOSING TO REMOVE THAT, UH, LIMITATION.

AND UM, WE ALREADY HAVE SIGNS THAT ARE WHITE AND INTERNALLY LIT.

UM, SO IT WAS REALLY HARD BECAUSE HEB HAS ONE AND CHASE BANK WANTS ONE AND THEY'RE IN THE SAME CENTER.

SO, UM, WE NEED TO MAKE A CHANGE CLEARLY.

UH, SO THAT'S THE, THE FIRST ITEM.

UM, THE SECOND ONE IS NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITY SIGNS.

AND THIS IS NOT THE THE BEST EXAMPLE, BUT IT'S THE, THE PICTURE I HAD.

UM, BUT WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING INTO A, A NEW NEIGHBORHOOD, THEY UM, HAVE TEMPORARY SIGNAGE THAT'S INTRODUCING AMENITIES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

SO THEY'LL SAY THINGS LIKE WHAT SCHOOL DISTRICT IT'S IN OR IF IT HAS A POOL COMING SOON OR, OR WHATEVER'S GOING ON IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND, UH, THE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE PUTTING THEM IN NOW WITHOUT PERMITS IN THE WRONG PLACE.

UM, THEY'RE PUTTING 'EM OVER OUR UTILITIES OR IN THE RIGHT OF WAY.

UM, SO WE WERE COMING UP WITH A WAY TO SUPPORT THE SIGNS AND GET 'EM IN THE RIGHT PLACE THROUGH ALLOWING 'EM THROUGH A PERMITTING PROCESS.

UM, THE LAST THING THAT WE WERE UPDATING IS, UH, MASTER SIGN PLANS.

SO WE ADDED, UM, SOME MORE OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF.

UM, ONE OF THEM WAS, UH, A MEANS OF ALLOWING, UH, INCREASED HEIGHT.

SO WE PROVIDED SOME PARAMETERS SO IF YOU SET THE SIGN BACK, YOU CAN GO UM, UP HIGHER WITH THE SIGN.

UM, AND THAT'S IT FOR THE AMENDMENTS.

AND SO FAR WE'VE RECEIVED A LOT OF REALLY GOOD FEEDBACK.

WE ACTUALLY HAD A SIGN COMPANY, UM, COME IN AND THANK OUR PERMIT TECH FOR THE NEW ORDINANCE, SO THAT WAS PRETTY EXCITING.

AND UM, I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU.

AT THIS TIME I'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING, I HAVE NO COMMENTS SUBMITTED OR ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE.

SO I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND OPEN IT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

UH, VICE CHAIR LAND, I GUESS MY ONLY QUESTION IS ABOUT THE MASTER SIGN PLAN SAID THAT THE INCREASE IN THE HEIGHT, UM, IS ONE FOOT.

THEY COULD GET AN ADDITIONAL ONE FOOT AND HEIGHT FOR A TRADITIONAL TWO FEET OF SETBACK.

SO, UM, WHAT DOES THE AVERAGE SETBACK LOOK SAY ON A STRIP CENTER? SO THE REQUIREMENT'S FIVE FEET FROM THE ROAD.

OKAY.

AND IF THERE'S A PUBLIC UTILITY EASEMENT, SOMETIMES THAT'S 10 FEET, SO IT'D BE TAKING IT.

UM, IF YOU DID UH, 12 FEET BACK, YOU'D GO UP A FOOT IN HEIGHT.

UM, MOST OF OUR REQUESTS ARE ABOUT, UH, THREE FEET OFF.

SO THIS SEEMED TO ACHIEVE OUR, OUR GOAL WITH A LOT OF THE REQUESTS WE GET.

I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE WE WEREN'T GONNA HAVE SOME REALLY TALL SIGNS COMING UP WHILE, SO WE HAD A LIMITATION WHERE IT COULDN'T BE MORE THAN 20% OF THE HEIGHT.

OKAY.

ALRIGHT.

I'M GOOD.

COMMISSIONER OLIVER? I'M GOOD.

COMMISSIONER MOSS? I'M GOOD.

COMMISSIONER COSTCO? UH, YEAH, I HAVE ONE QUICK QUESTION.

WHAT ABOUT EXISTING MONUMENTS IF THEY WANT TO RAISE? YEAH.

SO IF IT'S AN EXISTING MONUMENT SIGN, UM, WHAT IS THEIR PROCEDURE OR PROCESS? IF THEY WANTED TO GO HIGHER? YEAH, SO IF IT'S, OR HOW DO WE LIMIT THAT EVEN BETTER? HOW DO YOU, WHAT, HOW DO WE LIMIT THAT EVEN BETTER? HOW, WHAT'S THE PROCEDURE FOR IF THEY WANTED TO RAISE AN EXISTING MONITOR? SO IF YOU, IS THE SIGN ALREADY AT THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT BY ORDINANCE? LET'S SAY? NO.

LET, LET, LET'S IT'S NOT.

OKAY.

SO YOU'VE BUILT YOUR SIGN OR THE OLD ORDINANCE AND WE'VE NOW INCREASED IT TO 15 FEET.

UM, SOME PEOPLE, UH, WE ACTUALLY HAVE ONE THAT'S TALKING ABOUT, UM, ADDING A CAP ON TOP, A TOP.

SO IT'S JUST GETTING A PERMIT.

SO YOU JUST HAVE TO DEMONSTRATE THAT IT'S STRUCTURALLY SOUND INTERVENE, THE ORDINANCE.

SO GET A PERMIT ADD ON, WE MOVE FORWARD.

PERFECT.

PERFECT.

AND I HAVE NOTHING.

THIS IS AN ACTION ITEM.

MOTION TO APPROVE.

I SECOND WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE BY VICE CHAIR LAND TRIPP, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER MOSS.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

WITH THAT I'M ON TO AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 11.

THE TIME IS 6:33 PM AND WE ARE ADJOURNED.
