IN RELATION TO THE ZONING REQUEST, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATED ALONG AN ARTERIAL ROAD WITH HIGHER INTENSITY COMMERCIAL ZONING IN PROXIMITY TO THE SITE.
WHILE THE PROPERTY DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY ABUT SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL, THERE IS A FLOODPLAIN SERVING AS A BUFFER BETWEEN THE MAJORITY OF THE SURROUNDING OUR SIX BAY ZONING DISTRICT.
THE PROPOSED REZONING PROPOSED REZONING COINCIDES WITH ITS ESTABLISHED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ALONG BULVERDE ROAD, BUT DOES NOT INTRODUCE A LEVEL OF INTENSITY THAT IS INAPPROPRIATE TO THE EXISTING RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES.

[00:30:01]
AND 1 0 5 5 8.MOUNTAIN VIEW IS A REQUEST TO GO FROM R SIX TO R SIX CD WITH ALL OVERLAYS REMAINING THE SAME.
THERE ARE 18 TOTAL NOTICES SENT WITH ZERO RECEIVED IN SUPPORT AND ZERO RECEIVED IN OPPOSITION AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM MOUNTAIN VIEW ACRES NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION.
THE PROPOSED R SIX CD RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY IS NOT APPROPRIATE FOR THE PROPERTY OR SURROUNDING AREA.
GENERALLY, ASSISTED LIVING FOR MORE THAN SIX RESIDENTS IS PERMITTED IN AREAS WITH COMMERCIAL AND MULTI-FAMILY ZONING DESIGNATIONS.
IN THIS CASE, THE PROPERTY IS R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY AND IS ON AN INTERIOR LOT WITHIN A NEIGHBORHOOD PREDOMINANTLY COMPRISED OF SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES.
THE PROPOSED USE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA AND WOULD ADD A LAYER OF INTENSITY THAT IS INAPPROPRIATE FOR A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.
STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL AND THE REPRESENTATIVE IS PRESENT TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
ALRIGHT, IF WE COULD HAVE THE REPRESENTATIVE PLEASE ADDRESS THE BODY REGARDING THIS REZONING REQUEST.
UH, GOOD AFTERNOON, MR. CHAIR COMMISSIONERS CAROLYN MCDONALD WITH BROWN ORTIZ ONE 12 EAST PECAN.
I DO HAVE A SHORT PRESENTATION ON THIS REZONING REQUEST.
I I WANNA START OFF BY SAYING I DO HAVE TWO AMENDMENTS.
UM, STAFF DID PRESENT ONE OF THEM OUR UPDATED SITE PLAN AFTER CAREFULLY WORKING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND WE'RE ALSO LIMITING THE NUMBER OF RESIDENTS TO 15 INSTEAD OF 16.
UM, SO JUST AGAIN, SOME BACKGROUND.
IT'S A, THE LOT IS A LITTLE UNDER AN ACRE, UH, RIGHT ON TWO LOTS RIGHT OFF OF, UM, COLLIBRA AND 1604, UH, CURRENTLY UNDEVELOPED AND WITHIN THE MOUNTAIN VIEW ACRES NEIGHBORHOOD AS ASSOCIATION BOUNDARIES ZOOMED OUT.
NEXT ONE, UH, HERE'S THE ZONING MAP.
WE ARE R SIX AND WE ARE PROPOSING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR AN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY WITH UP TO 15 RESIDENTS.
WE ARE WITHIN THE, UH, I THINK THE WEST SECTOR PLAN OR SA TOMORROW PLAN.
UM, HIGHWAY 1 51, LOOP 1604 AND RURAL ESTATE HERE.
THEREFORE, WE DO NOT NEED A PLAN AMENDMENT.
UM, GOING INTO DETAIL, WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE MOUNTAIN VIEW, UH, NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION, UH, SINCE WE SUBMITTED THE APPLICATION AND HAVE ATTENDED SEVERAL, UH, NOT ONLY MEETINGS BUT HAD NUMEROUS COMMUNICATIONS, UM, AND HAVE CHANGED THE CASE SIGNIFICANTLY SINCE WE FIRST SUBMITTED.
UM, SPECIFICALLY THERE HAVE BEEN FOUR DIFFERENT SITE PLAN ITERATIONS AND WE ARE ENTERING INTO A PRIVATE AGREEMENT WITH, WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
JUST FOR SOME BACKGROUND ON THIS CASE, BECAUSE THERE IS A HISTORY ON THIS SITE, UM, WE DID, OUR FIRM DID SUBMIT A ZONING CASE BACK IN 2017, UM, FOR OH ONE AT THIS LOCATION WHERE STAFF DID RECOMMEND APPROVAL SET AND THAT IT WAS CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE WITH THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT.
HOWEVER, UH, THE NEIGHBORHOOD DID NOT BELIEVE THAT WAS SO, UM, WE COULD NOT COME TO AN AGREEMENT.
SO WE ARE BACK TODAY WITH, UM, SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT USE.
UM, AND WE DO BELIEVE THAT WITH THE PRIVATE AGREEMENT, UM, WE WILL BE PRESERVING THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND, UM, IT WILL BE A COHESIVE IDENTITY, UM, WITHIN THE HILL COUNTRY CHARACTER OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.
UM, THIS WAS OUR FIRST SITE PLAN.
UM, NOT PROUD OF IT, BUT IT WAS A BASELINE.
UM, OUR SECOND ITERATION, UM, SHOWS, YOU KNOW, ONE 5,000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING PARKING WITHIN THE FRONT, TWO SEPARATE POINTS, UH, OF INGRESS EGRESS.
AND THEN I DON'T BELIEVE THERE'S A PRO PROPOSED FENCE AND A LIMITED SCREENING.
UM, AFTER SEVERAL COMMUNICATIONS, WE UPDATED THE SIDE PLAN AGAIN.
UM, YOU SEE WE PUSHED THE BUILDING BACK SOMEWHAT PARKING'S IN THE BACK.
UM, I THINK THE FENCE, THE WOODEN PRIVACY FENCE THERE ALONG WITH SOME SCREENING AND THEN THAT CIRCLE DRIVE.
UM, THIS IS OUR MOST CURRENT SITE PLAN.
UM, YOU CAN SEE WE LIMITED THE NUMBER OF SQUARE UH, FEET FOR THE TWO BUILDINGS, UH, 3000 SQUARE FEET MAX FOR BOTH.
UM, SO TWO INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS.
WE AGAIN RELOCATED THE PARKING, UM, SIX FOOT PRIVACY FENCE ON THREE SIDES AND THEN DOWNWARD FACING LIGHTING, AND AGAIN, REDUCED THE NUMBER OF RESIDENTS ON SITE.
SO WITH THAT, I RESPECTFULLY ASKED FOR YOUR APPROVAL OF THE R SIX CONDITIONAL FOR, UH, ASSISTED LIVING FOR 15 RESIDENTS.
AND I'M AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
IS THERE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? STAFF
[00:35:02]
TWO? YES.REBECCA FLORES PEREZ, FOLLOWED BY MICHAEL STUMP.

I LIVE AT 1 0 2 3 OH MOUNT CROSBY IN THE MOUNTAIN VIEW ACRES SUBDIVISION.
I'M ALSO THE VICE PRESIDENT FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION.
UM, AS THE ATTORNEY JUST SAID, WE HAVE WORKED VERY HARD TO GET TO THIS POINT AND, UH, HAVE CONSIDERED SO MANY LITTLE THINGS AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE COMING TO, UH, A GOOD AGREEMENT.
UH, AS SHE SAID THAT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF, UM, I THINK SHE CALLED IT PRIVATE AGREEMENT DEEDED RESTRICTIONS.
UH, THOSE HAVE NOT BEEN FINALIZED YET, SO WE ARE SUPPORTING THIS.
UM, AND OUR SUPPORT IS CONDITIONED ON THE FI FINALIZATION AND RECORDING OF THE COVENANTS PRIOR TO CITY COUNCIL.
I KNOW THAT THAT DOESN'T MEAN A WHOLE LOT TO YOU GUYS, BUT IT'S IMPORTANT TO US.
SO WE CONTINUE, WE HOPE TO CONTINUE TO MEET WITH THEM AND, UH, ARE NOT ALL OUR, ALL OUR SMALL DIFFERENCES.
UM, THE ONLY OTHER THING I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT, UH, NONE OF THE NEIGHBORS GOT, AND THIS IS NOT A COMPLAINT 'CAUSE I'VE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT IT, BUT I WANTED YOU TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF IT.
NONE OF THE NEIGHBORS GOT, UH, THEIR MAILING NOTIFICATIONS AND THE H O A WENT TO AN OLD ADDRESS, BUT BECAUSE THEY PUT THE SIGN UP AND WE WERE ACTIVE, WE WERE ABLE TO STAY ON TOP OF EVERYTHING.
AND, UM, AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT UNLESS THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE.
UH, I'M AT, UH, 56 28 MOUNT HELEN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
OH, SORRY, SORRY, UH, ALL OVER AGAIN.
SO, UM, I'M THE, UH, INTERIM TREASURY SECRETARY FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION.
UM, I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT, UH, THIS EXPERIENCE WITH THE, UH, WITH THE OWNERS', UH, REPRESENTATIVES HAS BEEN FRUITFUL AND, UH, WE WERE A BIT, UM, SET BACK INITIALLY BECAUSE OF LACK OF COMMUNICATION AND STUFF, BUT THAT WAS QUICKLY RECTIFIED.
AND, UH, THAT'S WHY WE ARE, AND, AND THEY'RE MEETING OUR RESTRICTIONS THAT WE'VE ASKED FOR.
UH, AND SO, UH, WE'RE IN SUPPORT OF THAT AND THAT I'LL HAVE A SECOND.
ANY FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT STAFF? NO, SIR.
MS. MCDONALD, I DON'T THINK YOU NEED ANY REBUTTAL.
UH, SO COMMISSIONER HU TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS.

SO I HAD SOME QUESTIONS, BUT I BELIEVE MS. MCDONALD ANSWERED ALL OF THEM.
UM, BUT I DO WANNA GET, UH, MAKE SURE I GET A CLARIFICATION ON THE AMENDMENTS TO THIS APPLICATION.
ONE WAS FOR THE SITE PLAN OR THE TWO INDIVIDUAL, UH, STRUCTURES, AND THEN THE SECOND AMENDMENT WAS FOR 15 RESIDENTS RATHER THAN 16.
AND THEN PLEASE, UM, I KNOW THAT, UH, CAT CLARIFY THIS FOR ME EARLIER, BUT I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT, UH, IT'S CLEAR IN MY HEAD.
WHEN WE SAY 15 RESIDENTS, ARE WE RESTRICTING THE 15 TO THE ENTIRE, UH, BO BOTH PROPERTIES OR HOW DOES THAT WORK? YES, THAT'S CORRECT.
IT IS RESTRICTED TO THE ENTIRE PROPERTY AS DESCRIBED, NO MORE THAN 15 IN TOTAL.
OKAY, SO NOT TO EXCEED 15, RIGHT? CORRECT.
UM, AT THIS TIME, MR. CHAIR, I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTION, ANY QUESTIONS, AND I'LL OPEN UP TO MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS.
UH, COMMISSIONER WHEAT, ANY QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? TO MY LEFT.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER WHEAT TO YOU FOR MOTION? OKAY, THANK YOU MR. CHAIR.
SO I THINK AS OUR POP POPULATION GETS A LITTLE OLDER, THAT, UH, ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES ARE GONNA BE REQUIRED AND ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT ARE WELL OPERATED AND IN MY OPINION, THAT ARE SITUATED IN RESIDENTIAL SETTINGS RATHER THAN BEING TUCKED AWAY AND OUT OF SIGHT.
SO AGAIN, I WANT TO THANK MS. FLORES.
[00:40:01]
HEARD IS A LOT OF THE CONVERSATION AND DISCUSSIONS THAT SHE AND THE, UH, THE APPLICANT REPRESENTATIVES HAD THROUGH THE LAST FEW WEEKS.SO AGAIN, I WANNA THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR DOING THAT.
AND, UH, MR. CHAIR, BEFORE I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THIS APPLICATION, I'LL OPEN IT UP TO MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS IF THEY HAVE ANY COMMENTS, ANY DISCUSSION, SEEING NONE TO MY LEFT, TO MY RIGHT.
YEAH, I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT.
UM, I, I STILL, I, I'M KIND OF STRUGGLING WITH THIS CASE, UM, JUST BECAUSE I'VE HAD SIMILAR CASES IN, IN, IN MY DISTRICT.
UM, I DO THINK HOWEVER, THAT, UH, SPLITTING THE PROPERTY INTO WHAT WOULD APPEAR FROM THE STREET AS TWO RESIDENCES IS MIGHT BE THE SWAYING, UM, MIGHT BE WHAT SWAYS MY OPINION TO, TO APPROVE THIS.
BUT, UM, I, I, I STILL HAVE ISSUES WITH INTRODUCING, UM, THE NUMBER OF RESIDENTS ON AN INTERIOR LOT.
UM, BUT, BUT I DO APPRECIATE WHAT THE, THE APPLICANT HAS DONE, UM, TO, UM, INVOLVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND GET THE NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPORT AND THAT IS FOR ME, HUGE.
UH, WELL NOW THAT COMMISSIONER S SIPES HAS RAISED SOME ISSUES, UH, I THINK, UH, IN THIS CASE THE SITE PLAN AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPORT, THOSE TWO THINGS TOGETHER ARE DETERMINATIVE.
UH, AND SO ASSUMING A MOTION TO APPROVE AS AMENDED, UM, YOU KNOW, THE FACT THAT THERE IS THAT SEMI-CIRCULAR, UH, DRIVEWAY, UH, MAKES ACCESS FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES MUCH EASIER THAN A LOT OF THE OTHER TIMES THAT WE'VE SEEN SIMILAR PROJECTS IN OTHER DISTRICTS WHERE THERE'S JUST AN IN AND OUT DRIVEWAY.
AND SO THERE'S THE BACKING OUT OF EMERGENCY VEHICLES.
UH, SO, YOU KNOW, THE SPLITTING OF THE TWO STRUCTURES NO MORE THAN 3000 FEET EACH ALSO MAKES IT APPEAR TO BE MORE IN LINE WITH THE RESIDENTIAL.
I KNOW WE DON'T CONCERN OURSELVES WITH DESIGN, BUT AS FAR AS THE USE, IT DOES MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THE RESIDENTIAL USES THAT ARE SURROUNDING.
UM, AND SO I WILL BE SUPPORTING WHAT I ASSUME IS A MOTION FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED.
THAT BEING SAID, COMMISSIONER, WE TO YOU FOR MOTION, PLEASE.
AT THIS TIME I'D LIKE TO MOVE TO APPROVE THIS APPLICATION AS AMENDED.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONER ORTIZ IS THE SECOND.
UH, ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT? COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT.
THE MOTION IS FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER TWO AS AMENDED BY COMMISSIONER HU AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ORTIZ.
WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON NOW TO ITEM NUMBER FOUR.
UH, IF WE COULD READ ITEM FOUR INTO THE RECORD, PLEASE.
MY NAME IS ELIZABETH STEWART, ZONING PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER FOUR IS LOCATED AT 1411 BRADY BOULEVARD.
GOING FROM R SIX TO C TWO SS WITH SPECIFIC USE AUTHORIZATION FOR MEETING HALL, RECEPTION FACILITY, PARTY HOUSE WITH ALL OVERLAY STAYING THE SAME.
THERE ARE 15 NOTICES SENT OUT.
WESTWOOD SQUARE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS IN SUPPORT WITH CONDITIONS AND ZERO RECEIVED OUTSIDE 200 FEET.
THE EXISTING R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA.
THE PROPOSED C TWO COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IS ALSO APPROPRIATE ALONG THE US 90 CORRIDOR AND PROVIDES A BUFFER BETWEEN RESIDENTIAL AND INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES.
THE PROPOSED C TWO WOULD PROVIDE A BUFFER BETWEEN THE HIGH INTENSITY USE OF THE I ONE PROPERTY AND THE RESIDENTIAL R FOUR PROPERTY STAFF DOES NOT FIND EVIDENCE OF LIKELY ADVERSE IMPACTS ON NEIGHBORING LANDS.
IN RELATION TO THE ZONING CHANGE REQUEST, THE PROPOSED USE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
STAFF IS AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS AND THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT.
IF THE APPLICANT WOULD COME FORWARD AND TELL US ABOUT YOUR REZONING REQUEST, PLEASE.
UM, SO WE ARE REQUESTING A REZONING, WE'RE

TRYING TO HAVE LIKE A, A PARTY HOUSE THERE.UM, WE HAVE BEEN, UH, IN CONTACT WITH, UH, VELMA PENA.
SHE'S, UH, THE ASSO, THE PRESIDENT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
UM, WE'VE GONE OVER SOME, SOME OF THEIR CONCERNS, UH, AND SHE HAS, SHE'S CAME UP WITH A, UH, I GUESS AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE BOTH OF US.

UH, VELMA PENA, UH, 1210 PATTON BOULEVARD.
AND YES, UH, AS THE, UM, REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE APPLICANT, UH, PROPERTY OWNER, WE HAVE COME TO AN AGREEMENT, A PRIVATE AGREEMENT FOR SOME OF THESE CONDITIONS, BUT ALSO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE ADD NONE, NONE ANY FOR NO ALCOHOL.
UH, IF YOU SEE THE PICTURE, WE DID GO OUT, I DID TRY TO TALK TO ALL THE, UH, RESIDENTS WITHIN THE 200 FEET.
SO, UH, AND THEN THERE'S NO OPPOSITION ON, NO LETTERS WERE TURNED IN, WHETHER IN SUPPORT OR NOT.
SO WE DID TAKE IT UPON OURSELVES TO, YOU KNOW, TALK TO THE PROPERTY OWNER.
AND WE ARE CONCERNED BECAUSE THE, THE, UH, RESIDENT IS BUTTED RIGHT UP AGAINST THE, UH, THE CHURCH, WHICH I MEAN, WHICH IS NOT GONNA BECOME A PARTY HOUSE.
AND SO JUST TO BE WITHIN, TO KEEP THE NEIGHBORS FROM HAVING TO GO THROUGH A LOT OF NOISE, WE WOULD APPRECIATE HAVING A BUFFER, YOU KNOW, WITH THE, WITH THE FENCING AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
UM, I KNOW THAT, UH, THIS IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT WHEN WE REQUEST IT, BUT IT IS A PRIVATE AGREEMENT AND I HOPE IN GOOD FAITH THAT THE PROPERTY OWNER WILL, UM, STAY WITH THAT AGREEMENT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
'CAUSE WE'RE JUST TRYING TO TAKE CARE OF THE RESIDENTS WHEN IT'S A PARTY HOUSE.
YOU'RE TALKING MUSIC, THINGS LIKE THAT.
AND SO I KNOW Y'ALL GOT A COPY OF THE LETTER, SO WE'RE HAPPY TO SUPPORT THEM, UM, AS LONG AS THEY DO WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO.
ANY FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT STAFF? NO, SIR.
UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT FIVE CASE, SO IT'S TO ME FOR QUESTIONS.
MS. RAMIREZ, IF I CAN HAVE YOU COME UP PLEASE.
UM, MS. RAMIREZ, I'M HAPPY THAT YOU'VE BEEN WORKING WITH MS. PENA FOR ALL THOSE APPLICANTS WHO REMAIN PRESENT.
IT'S ALWAYS IMPORTANT FOR THIS COMMISSION, UH, THAT YOU DO TAKE A PROACTIVE STANCE AND WORK WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS, YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS AND THOSE WHO HAVE AN INTEREST.
UM, MS. RAMIREZ, UH, THE FIRST THING I WANT TO ASK YOU IS, ARE YOU, UH, AMENDING YOUR APPLICATION TO INCLUDE IN A NO ALCOHOL SALES? YES.
WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE GONNA GO AHEAD AND DO THAT.
UM, BUT ON, ON THEIR, WHAT WE HAD DISCUSSED WITH VELMA IS WE STILL WILL HAVE LIKE A B A B Y O B, RIGHT? THIS IS JUST NO ALCOHOL SALES STAFF.
ALRIGHT, SO IF YOU'RE JUST SAY WE'RE AMENDING TO INCLUDE IN A YES, WE'RE AMENDING TO INCLUDE A, ALRIGHT, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
UM, I WANT TO GO OVER, YOU KNOW, THERE ARE SOME ISSUES THAT WE CAN ADDRESS AS A ZONING COMMISSION.
IT DOESN'T BECOME PART OF THE ORDINANCE FOR THE CITY.
UH, BUT WE CAN REQUIRE CERTAIN THINGS THAT DO BECOME PART OF THE ORDINANCE THAT ARE ENFORCEABLE BY THE CITY.
UM, SO I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU, ARE YOU OKAY WITH NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFICATION AS A CONDITION? UH, YES.
UH, I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU NOW ABOUT YOUR HOURS OF OPERATION.
WHAT DO YOU ANTICIPATE THOSE TO BE? YES, SO, SO THE HOURS OF OPERATION WILL BE, UM, FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY, UM, APPROXIMATELY LIKE SEVEN TO 12:00 AM SEVEN AND OKAY.
I'M GOING TO SUGGEST TO YOU MM-HMM.
AND THEN ON, UH, MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, 11:00 AM TO 10.
THE REASON I'M SUGGESTING THAT IS IF YOU DON'T HAVE MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, THEN YOU CAN'T HAVE PEOPLE IN THERE.
YOU WANNA HAVE PEOPLE IN THERE, RIGHT? YES.
SO, UH, I'M GONNA SUGGEST AS A CONDITION AND LET ME KNOW IF YOU AGREE WITH IT.
UH, HOURS OF OPERATION MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, 11:00 AM TO 10:00 PM AND FRIDAY, SATURDAY, AND SUNDAY 11:00 AM TO MIDNIGHT.
[00:50:01]
WILL BE, UH, SCREENED, FENCING ALONG THE EAST AND THE NORTH.THOSE, UH, BOUNDARIES OF YOUR PROPERTY THAT ARE ABUTTING, UH, RESIDENTIAL AREAS.
UH, THOSE ARE ALL MY QUESTIONS.
MR. RAMIREZ, UH, MS. PENA, DID THAT ADDRESS THE ISSUES THAT YOU WANTED? THANK YOU.
UH, ANY QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT.
UH, AT THIS TIME, BECAUSE THIS IS A DISTRICT FIVE CASE, IT GOES TO ME FOR MOTION.
UM, SO I MOVE FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER FOUR AS AMENDED WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS.
NO OUTDOOR AMPLIFICATION, HOURS OF OPERATIONS, 11:00 AM TO 10:00 PM MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, 11:00 AM TO MIDNIGHT FRIDAY, SATURDAY, AND SUNDAY.

UM, ALRIGHT, THAT IS THE MOTION.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND THE MOTION TO CHAIR.
I'M GONE WITH COMMISSIONER WATSON.
UH, THE MOTIONS FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED WITH THE CONDITIONS AS READ ON THE RECORD.
ANY DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT.
AGAIN, THE MOTION IS FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED FOR ITEM NUMBER FOUR, UH, WITH THE CONDITIONS AS READ, ROLL CALL, VOTE PLEASE.
ALRIGHT, WE ARE NOW GONNA MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER FIVE.
ANN BETA'S ZONING PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER FIVE, LOCATED AT 1 2 8 6 BANDERA ROAD IS A REQUEST TO GO FROM C TWO AND RMM FOUR TO C TWO C D WITH ALL OVERLAYS REMAINING THE SAME 23 TOTAL NOTICES WERE SENT WITH ONE RECEIVED BACK IN SUPPORT, ZERO IN OPPOSITION, AND NO RESPONSE FROM DONALDSON TERRACE OR UNIVERSITY PARK STAFF DOES FIND EVIDENCE OF LIKELY ADVERSE IMPACTS ON NEIGHBORING LANDS IN RELATION TO THE ZONING CHANGE.
WHILE THE BASE DISTRICT OF C TWO COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IS CONSISTENT, THE PROPOSED USE OF OUTSIDE STORAGE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE ADDITION OF THE CD CONDITIONAL USE FOR OUTSIDE STORAGE INCREASES THE INTENSITY OF THE ZONING TO A USE TYPICALLY PERMITTED BY WRIGHT IN A C THREE GENERAL COMMERCIAL COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICT.
THUS, STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL OF THE C TWO CD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH THE CONDITIONAL USE FOR OUTSIDE STORAGE AND RECOMMENDS AN ALTERNATE RECOMMENDATION OF C TWO COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.
THE REPRESENTATIVE IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
ALRIGHT, IS THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE PRESENT? THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
GOOD AFTERNOON, COMMISSIONERS.
MY NAME IS DELANEY KER AND I WORK WITH KILLING GRIFFIN AND FAIRMONT AND WE'RE LOCATED AT 1 0 1 0 1 REUNION PLACE.
UM, WE ORIGINALLY BROUGHT THIS CASE BEFORE ZONING COMMISSION A LITTLE OVER SIX MONTHS AGO.
SINCE THEN, WE HAVE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY WITH DISTRICT SEVEN AND CITY STAFF TO FIGURE OUT THE BEST ZONING IF THE PROPERTY WAS TO EVER BE REDEVELOPED.
THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY THE HOME OF STARLINE COSTUMES, UM, AND THE REAR PORTION OF THE PROPERTY IS ZONED RMM FOUR.
WITH THE FRONTAGE BEING C TWO.
A LITTLE OVER SIX MONTHS AGO, WE REQUESTED A REZONING TO C TWO TO PROVIDE A CONSISTENT C TWO ZONING OVER THE ENTIRETY OF THE PROPERTY, WHICH HAD STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL AND WAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED BY RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL BY ZONING COMMISSION.
SINCE THEN, AS MENTIONED, WE HAVE BEEN WORKING CLOSELY WITH DISTRICT SEVEN ON POTENTIAL REDEVELOPMENT STANDARDS.
THE CONDITIONAL USE WAS INTRODUCED WHILE WORKING WITH DISTRICT SEVEN, HOWEVER, IT IS NO LONGER NEEDED, UM, OR NECESSARY.
AS SUCH, WE WOULD LIKE TO FORMALLY AMEND OUR REQUEST TO THE C TWO ZONING DISTRICT WITH AN ADDITIONAL NA RESTRICTION, UM, SO THAT IT WOULD READ C TWO NA.
UM, WE STILL HAVE THE SUPPORT OF NEIGHBORS, UM, INCLUDING THE ONE DIRECTLY TO THE NORTH OF THE PROPERTY.
UM, I HAVE A PRESENTATION PREPARED, UM, IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS, BUT AT THIS TIME, WE WOULD LIKE TO, UM, ASK FOR, OR WE WOULD LIKE TO FORMALLY REQUEST YOUR SUPPORT FOR OUR AMENDED REQUEST TO C TWO NA.
AND AGAIN, I'M HERE FOR QUESTIONS.
IS THERE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ITEM? NO, SIR.
UH, COMMISSIONER S SIPES, THIS IS
[00:55:01]
A DISTRICT SEVEN CASE, SO IT'S TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS.I HAVE NO QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME, SO.
WE'LL SEE IF ANYONE ELSE DOES.
UH, COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONER TO MY RIGHT.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONER SIPES TO YOU FOR MOTION? ALRIGHT, UM, I'D LIKE TO THANK THE APPLICANT FOR WORKING WITH THE, THE DISTRICT SEVEN OFFICE.
AND AT THIS TIME I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED TO C TWO N A.
ALRIGHT, THERE'S A MOTION FOR APPROVAL AS AMENDED.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.
ALRIGHT, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ORTIZ, IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS? TO MY LEFT.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT.
THE MOTION IS FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER FIVE, UH, AS AMENDED BY COMMISSIONER S SIPES WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ORTIZ.
LITTLE MORE DEFINITIVELY THE SECOND TIME.
UH, MY NAME IS KELLY SANDERS, SENIOR PLANNER.
UM, ITEM NUMBER 16 IS A REQUEST TO REZONE FROM RMM SIX AND R FOUR TO RMM FIVE WITH ALL ZONING OVERLAYS TO REMAIN THE SAME.
LOCATED AT 10 12 NORTH CHERRY STREET AND 10 14 NORTH CHERRY STREET.
THERE WERE 56 NOTICES, UM, SENT OUT ZERO IN FAVOR, NINE OPPOSED NUITY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS IN FAVOR.
UM, EIGHT NOTICES WERE RECEIVED IN OPPOSITION OUTSIDE THE 200 FOOT AND THE, UH, CONCERNED CITIZENS OF DIGNITY HILL.
A NON-REGISTERED UH, ASSOCIATION ALSO NOTED THEIR OPPOSITION.
UM, THE APPLICATION FOR CONCEPTUAL REVIEW FOR THE NEW CONSTRUCTION OF SIX TWO-STORY RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES WAS SUBMITTED.
AND O H P STAFF DID NOT RECOMMEND, UH, CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL.
THE REQUEST RECEIVED CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL AT THE MAY 4TH, 2022 HISTORIC AND DESIGN REVIEW COMMISSION HEARING THE REQUEST FOR FINAL APPROVAL FOR THE REQUEST WAS SUBMITTED.
AND O H P STAFF DID NOT RECOMMEND FINAL APPROVAL AS THERE ARE CONFLICTS WITH THE HISTORIC DESIGN GUIDELINES.
THE REQUEST WAS HEARD BY H D R C ON JUNE 15TH, 2022, AND THE H D R C REFERRED THE REQUEST TO BE HEARD BY THE SUBCOMMITTEE FOR CONSIDERATION TODAY.
AND FINAL CONSIDERATION IS STILL PENDING.
STAFF DOES NOT FIND, OR STAFF DOES FIND EVIDENCE OF LIKELY ADVERSE IMPACTS ON NEIGHBORING LANDS IN RELATION TO THE ZONING CHANGE REQUEST.
THE PROPOSED USE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA, BUT THE ADJACENT PROPERTIES ARE ZONED R FOUR AND ARE LARGELY DEVELOPED WITH RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY AND SOME TWO FAMILY UNITS.
ALTHOUGH THERE IS A D DOWNTOWN DISTRICT ZONING TO THE WEST OF THE PROPERTY, IT IS ISOLATED TO THAT BLA TO THAT BLOCK.
AND MOST HAVE AN ESTABLISHED USE OF RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL AND THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT.
IF THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE OR THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT, UH, IF YOU'D PLEASE COME UP AND TELL US ABOUT YOUR REZONING REQUEST.
UH, RICARDO TOES WITH MINT DEVELOPMENT.
TEN FOUR FOUR SIX TRAILWAY OAK.
UH, I DO HAVE A PRESENTATION TODAY.
SO, UM, UH, OUR ZONING REQUEST TODAY IS FOR A PROP.
UH, THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 10 12 10 14 NORTH CHERRY STREET.
UM, INSIDE THE NUITY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED R M SIX AND R FOUR.
UH, OUR PROPOSED, UH, UH, ZONING IS RM FIVE, ALLOWING FOR ONE MORE UNIT PER PER EACH LOT.
SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON, ON THIS PROJECT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, AND, UH, HAVE ACTUALLY MADE A FEW CHANGES THROUGHOUT
[01:00:01]
THE, THROUGHOUT THE WAY WHILE WORKING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, UM, NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORS, UM, AND THE H G R C, UH, YOU KNOW, WE'VE ACT, UH, WE'VE ACTUALLY ALSO HAVE A REDUCTION.AND, AND THROUGH WORKING WITH THAT, WE'VE HAD REDUCTIONS IN NOT, YOU KNOW, IN MASSING AND IN UNITS.
UM, ULTIMATELY GOING TO OUR MAY 5TH, MAY 4TH, UM, UH, MEETING AND HAVING, GETTING CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL.
UH, WE'VE, UH, DONE, UH, NUMEROUS, UM, NEIGHBORHOOD OUTREACH, UM, TRIPS.
YOU KNOW, WE'VE KNOCKED ON DOORS CALLED PEOPLE, UH, MET WITH THE NEIGHBOR ASSOCIATION.
WE RECENTLY MET WITH, UH, THE CONCERNED CITIZENS, UM, I THINK IT WAS LAST, LAST WEEK.
UM, AND, YOU KNOW, HEARING THEIR CONCERNS.
AND WE ARE TODAY, LIKE, UH, KELLY SAID, WE DO HAVE A D R C MEETING TODAY, UM, FROM THE H G R C MEETING.
UM, LAST WEEK THERE WAS A FEW QUESTIONS REGARDING FENESTRATION, UM, MATERIALS DETAILS.
UM, AND, YOU KNOW, OUR ARCHITECTURE TEAM IS, WILL BE TAKING CARE OF THAT, UH, TODAY, PLEASE.
SO THE, THE GENERAL LOCATION OF THE PROPERTIES IS AT THE NORTHWEST, UH, CORNER OF DIGNITY HILL, UM, KIND FRINGES OF THE HISTORIC, UH, UH, DISTRICT WHERE IT'S A BUDDING, UM, RESIDENTIAL, INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL, UM, U UM, USES AND EXISTING BUILDINGS.
UM, YOU KNOW, WE THINK IT'S A GREAT, UH, PLACE, UH, FOR THIS PROJECT WITH ITS PROXIMITY TO THE PARKS, UH, HAYES BRIDGE, UM, THE PEARL AND, AND DOWNTOWN.
UM, WE THINK THE, YOU KNOW, UH, WE THINK THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, THE, THE FAMILIES THAT CAN MOVE IN HERE WILL, YOU KNOW, BENEFIT A LOT FROM THE CURRENT AMENITIES AROUND THE AREA.
THIS IS THE CURRENT STREET VIEW.
UM, SINCE WE'VE ACT SINCE WE'VE ACQUIRED THE PROPERTY, UM, WE'VE AC WE'VE ACTUALLY GONE IN THERE, CLEANED IT UP.
UM, YOU'LL SEE IN, IN THE AREA THERE'S THE, THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD A WHOLE BUNCH OF CARS AND TRASH AND THERE'S SOME TENTS BACK THERE.
WE'VE, WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO MAINTAIN IT, UM, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR WHEN WE ACQUIRED THAT.
AREA OF THE PROPERTY, UH, PRETTY LONG.
THE, UH, IT'S ACTUALLY BEEN IN THE SAME CONFIGURATION SINCE THE EARLY 19 HUNDREDS.
UM, NOTHING HAS REALLY CHANGED IN REGARDS TO THE BOUNDARY.
SO OUR ZONING, UH, OUR CURRENT ZONE IS RMM SIX, WHICH ALLOWS FOR TWO UNITS ON EACH PROPERTY.
R FOUR, UH, IN THAT BACK, I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT HAPPENED, BUT, UM, YOU KNOW, OUR, WE ARE, AND THE RM SIX ALLOWS FOR, AGAIN, TWO UNITS ON, ON EACH PROPERTY.
UH, LOW DENSITY MIXED USE IS THE, UM, THE CURRENT LAND USE.
SO ON THE EXISTING LAND USE IS DIGNITY, UH, IS LOW DENSITY MIXED USE.
AND, YOU KNOW, UH, PER THE DINU HILL NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN ON DECEMBER 3RD, 2009, UM, OUR REQUESTS, OUR DENSITY REQUEST FALLS WITHIN SAY HALF, YOU KNOW, BELOW HALF OF THE, UH, OF WHAT THE PLAN, UM, CALLS FOR.
IT ACTUALLY GOES UP, YOU KNOW, M IN ARM SIX, MF 18, AND I D Z.
SO THE SAMBO, THIS IS SAMBO MAP, UM, THAT WE'VE BEEN, YOU KNOW, STUDYING.
WE'VE BEEN STUDYING, UM, KIND OF THESE MAPS THROUGHOUT THE WAY.
UM, THIS LAND, THIS PROPERTY IS NOT FOR, IT IS NO STRANGER TO DENSITY.
UM, AND THROUGH, UH, SOME OF STAFF'S, UH, UH, FINDINGS AND RESEARCH, YOU KNOW, THERE, IT'S ACTUALLY BEEN DOWN ZONE SEVERAL TIMES FROM, UH, COMMERCIAL TO B TWO TO, UM, RMS AND ULTIMATELY TO WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW AT RM FIVE.
UH, THIS PARTICULAR, UM, MAP SHOWS THAT, YOU KNOW, TWO HOUSES WERE ON THERE, UM, WITH THE, WITH ACTUALLY GREENHOUSES THAT RAN ALL THE WAY, YOU KNOW, THROUGH THE PROPERTY ALL THE WAY ONTO THE OTHER SIDE ON MESQUITE.
SO THESE ARE SITE PLANS ARE REVISED SITE PLAN FROM, UM, THAT GOT APPROVED AT H E R C, UM, AFTER THE REDUCTION OF THE TWO UNITS AND, UM, MASSING.
SO, YOU KNOW, OUR MAIN FOCUS WAS HOW DO WE, UH, HOW DO WE CONTINUE THAT,
[01:05:01]
THAT STREETSCAPE? HOW DO WE, UH, MAKE, MAKE THAT PATTERN FOLLOW? SO WE FALL, WE RESEARCH THE STREETSCAPE.WHAT WE'RE DOING IS WE'RE FACING THESE TWO HOMES WHICH ARE LARGER, UH, WHICH IS VERY IN, IN, IN LINE TO WHAT, UM, VERY IN LINE TO THE HISTORIC PATTERN IN DINU HILL, WHERE YOU HAVE A BIG HOUSE AND CASITAS IN THE BACK, UM, WHICH WITH LOWER, UM, PLATE HEIGHTS, UM, THE PERMEABLE DRIVE IN THE MIDDLE.
UM, WE WORK, WE'RE WORKING WITH THE LANDSCAPE TEAM TO BREAK IT IN HALF.
SO THIS, THIS, YOU KNOW, THIS PRECEDENT IS ACTUALLY, UH, EXISTING ON OUR BLOCK FACE.
SO, YOU KNOW, YOU'LL HAVE THESE, UM, YOU KNOW, THESE HOUSES THAT HAVE THEIR, THEIR DRIVEWAYS RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER TWO OR THREE TIMES ON THIS.
YOU KNOW, THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS OURS WILL NOT HAVE A FENCE RUNNING DOWN THE MIDDLE.
UM, AGAIN, WORKING WITH A LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT TO SOFTEN THAT UP.
UM, WE'VE DONE THIS IN THE PAST AND, UM, IN DOWNTOWN NEIGHBORHOODS AND ONCE THE VEGETATION GROWS AND EVERYTHING, YOU KNOW, IT SEEMS LIKE THESE TWO HOUSES ARE REALLY, YOU KNOW, UM, YOU KNOW, KIND OF GROWING INTO THE LANDSCAPE AND, AND YOU KNOW, IT, IT, IT JUST SEEMS LIKE IT, IT WAS, THEY WERE ALWAYS THERE.
UM, WE'RE ALWAYS, WE'RE ALSO KEEPING, UH, AS MANY TREES AS WE CAN.
I THINK WE'RE OUT OF ALL THE TREES THAT ARE EXISTING, WE'RE BRINGING DOWN MAYBE LIKE FOUR, UM, REALLY WORKING WITH THE, UH, WITH THE CURRENT SITE.
THIS WAS A DIMENSIONAL SITE PLAN, KINDA SHOWING THE POSITION AND THE, UH, THE, THE SCALE OF OUR FOOTPRINTS VERSUS THE EXISTING.
SO OUR FOOTPRINTS ARE ACTUALLY MORE IN LINE WITH THE EXISTING, UM, UH, THE EXISTING FOOTPRINTS ON OUR, ON OUR STREET.
UM, THE, THE ONES WHO ARE NORTH IS ACTUALLY A FAIRLY, UH, KIND OF, UM, NOT, NOT IN LINE WITH WHAT YOU, IF YOU CROSS, UH, TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STREET, YOU KNOW, WE'LL BE MORE IN LINE WITH THAT COVERAGE.
OR ALSO OUR LOT COVERAGE IS, UH, MORE IN LINE.
IT IS BELOW WHAT'S EXISTING IN OUR LOCK FEES.
THAT WAS THE STUDY THAT WE REALLY WENT IN DEPTH, UM, PER H UH, H C R C.
SINCE OUR, SINCE OUR APPROVAL, SINCE OUR CONCEPTUAL APPROVAL, WE ACTUALLY CAME BACK TO, UH, OUR FINAL APPROVAL WITH GREATER SETBACKS.
UM, SO WE ARE CURRENTLY, UH, YOU KNOW, AND WE WANTED TO DO THAT TO FALL MORE IN LINE WITH, WITH THE BUILDINGS THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, THAT ARE SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO US.
SO OUR 10 14 IS AT 37, WHICH COMES OUT TO ALMOST LIKE 24 AND A HALF FEET FROM THE PROPERTY LINE.
AND, UH, OUR 10 14, 10 12 NORTH CHERRY IS 32 FEET, UH, FROM THE CURB, WHICH COMES OUT TO LIKE 19 AND A HALF FEET FROM THE PROPERTY LINE.
KINDA SHOWING THAT, UM, UH, SHOWING OUR CONCEPTUAL, UM, UH, CONCEPTUAL, UM, ARCHITECTURE THAT'S CURRENT, LIKE I SAID, WE'RE, THIS IS WHAT WAS, IS CURRENTLY BEING REVIEWED AT H V R C FOR FINAL APPROVAL.
WE'RE MAKING SOME CHANGES ON THE LIGHTS RIGHT NEXT TO THE DOORS AND SOME, UH, SOME OF THESE FIXED WINDOWS THAT WE'RE HOPING TO MAYBE CUT SOME LIGHTS, DO WHATEVER ONES.
UM, BUT YOU KNOW, AGAIN, WE ARE, YOU KNOW, WE'LL HAVE, UM, THEY'LL BE VERY SIMILAR IN REGARDS TO FRONT YARDS TO OUR NEIGHBORS.
UM, AND KIND OF FOLLOWING THAT PATTERN OF, YOU KNOW, KIND OF BIGGER HOUSES IN THE FRONT WITH THE SMALLER EDS IN THE BACK, UH, MATERIALS, YOU KNOW, FALL, UH, UH, BE, YOU KNOW, WE, OUR ARCHITECT TEAM HAS BEEN GREAT.
UM, LOOKING AT ALL THE MATERIALS FROM ALL THE EXISTING PRECEDENTS, UH, COMMERCIAL, INDUSTRIAL, RESIDENTIAL, YOU'RE USING STUCCO, TERRACOTTA, BRICK AND REALLY USING THAT IN A CONTEMPORARY LOOK.
IS A VIEW, UM, KIND OF, OF OUR, UH, PERMEABLE, UH, ROAD.
WE'LL BE USING TRUE GRID, WE'LL ALSO BE PAYING A LITTLE BIT MORE, UH, FOR THE, FOR THE ROAD.
THANK YOU MR. AND AT THE END, AT THE END, WE DO HAVE SOME, UM, A HANDFUL.
WELL ACTUALLY WE HAVE 12 LETTERS OF SUPPORT FROM OUR IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORS AND NEIGHBORHOOD.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ITEM? NO ONE SIGNED IN TO SPEAK IN NO VOICEMAILS.
THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE, SO COMMISSIONER WATSON? NO, THERE ARE TWO, SORRY.
[01:10:02]
UH, SOMETIMES I JUST HEAR WHAT I WANT TO HEAR.HELLO, MY NAME IS VALERIE CORTES AND I RESIDE AT 5 0 8 LAMAR STREET WITH INDIGNITY HILL.
I'M CALLING ON BEHALF OF THE CONCERNED CITIZENS OF DIGNITY HILL WITH REGARDS TO CASE NUMBER 1 0 7 0 0 1 3 3, LOCATED AT 10 12 10 14 NORTH CHERRY STREET.
WE ARE IN OPPOSITION AND STRONGLY REQUEST DENIAL.
WHILE THE DEVELOPER DID GET A LETTER OF SUPPORT FROM THE OFFICIAL DIG WHITTY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO VOTED WERE THEIR OFFICERS OR BOARD MEMBERS.
THAT WAS A TOTAL OF SIX PEOPLE.
THIS ZONING CASE WAS NEVER PRESENTED TO NOR VOTED ON BY GENERAL MEMBERSHIP.
7 0 2 NORTH CHERRY AND 4 22 HAYES ARE ALWAYS USED AS PRECEDENTS.
BUT THESE TWO DEVELOPMENTS ARE WHY THE ORIGINAL DIGNITY HILL ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD AND CURRENT CONCERNS CITIZENS OF DIGNITY HILL WERE CREATED, WHICH IS TO FIGHT THIS TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT IN DIGNITY HILL.
IT DOES NOT FIT IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT IS FILLED WITH SINGLE FAMILY HOMES BECAUSE YARDS ARE BASICALLY NON-EXISTENT.
THERE IS NO OUTDOOR SPACE FOR FAMILIES TO ENJOY.
THERE IS NO SPACE THAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO STORE THEIR ITEMS. THESE LARGE MULTI-HOUSING PROJECTS OVERWHELM THE SMALLER BUNGALOW HOUSES THAT SURROUND THEM.
OUR EXPERIENCE WITH THESE TYPE OF MULTI-HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS WITH ONE DRIVEWAY TO ENTER AND EXIT HAS BEEN THAT THESE DEVELOPMENTS ARE ULTIMATELY SOLD TO INVESTORS AND EITHER BECOME RENTAL PROPERTIES OR TYPE TWO STR.
THIS TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT ENCOURAGE LONG-TERM HOME OWNERSHIP.
THE DEVELOPER LIKES TO POINT TO THE RECOMMENDED 2009 DIGNITY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN AND CURRENT INFILL DEVELOPMENT.
WHILE HIS REQUESTED ZONING DOES EXIST AS AN OPTION, IT WAS MEANT TO BE USED ON THOSE STREETS THAT ARE MORE COMMERCIAL, SUCH AS NORTH NEW BRAUNFELS AVENUE AND EAST COMMERCE STREET.
THE INFILL DEVELOPMENT WAS ALSO MEANT TO BE INFILLED BY AND LIVED IN BY HOMEOWNERS.
THE MAJORITY OF NEW INFILL DEVELOPMENT AT THIS TIME IS HELD BY INVESTOR ENTITIES AND MANY ARE NOT HOMEOWNER OCCUPIED.
IT DOES NOT KEEP WITH A UNIQUE CHARACTERISTIC OF DIGNITY HILL.
THE DEVELOPER USES A SANDBORN MAP TO JUSTIFY WHY SIX HOUSES SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO BE BUILT.
WHEN YOU ZOOM IN ON THE ZOR MAP IN HIS PRESENTATION, IT ONLY SHOWS TWO STRUCTURES ON THE 10 12 LOT.
ON THE 10 14 LOT, TWO OF THE STRUCTURES YOU SEE ARE GREENHOUSES ANOTHER STRUCTURE WITH NO ROOF AND A STABLE OR GARAGE.
THE APPLICANT HAS BEEN PRESENTING HIS SITE PLAN TWO H D R C SINCE JANUARY.
THE LATEST REQUEST FOR FINAL APPROVAL OF THE CURRENT SITE PLAN WAS SIX HOUSES WAS HEARD BY THEM ON JUNE 15TH AND IT WAS DENIED FIVE TO THREE.
THEY WERE SENT BACK TO D R C COMMITTEE FOR FURTHER CONSIDERATION AS IT WAS VOTED DOWN DUE TO THE MASKING AND MATERIALS REQUEST NOT MEETING H D R C GUIDELINES.
MY NAME IS DEANNA DANIEL AND MY PHONE NUMBER IS TWO TEN EIGHT FOUR FIVE NINE TWO TWO SIX.
THE LAST FOUR OF THE ZONING CASE NUMBER, UM, IS 0 1 3 0 3 3.
AND I'M CALLING TO SUPPORT THIS CASE.
UM, I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE MORE DEVELOPMENT IN THE AREA.
UM, YEAH, I MEAN, I'D LIKE TO, UM, CLARIFY OUR D R C.
UM, WE WERE SENT BACK TO THE D R C MOSTLY IN RE TO DISCUSS MATERIALS, UM, AND, AND, AND WINDOWS.
UM, THE, FROM THE DISCUSSION THAT I, THAT, YOU KNOW, I, I HEARD LAST WEDNESDAY, YOU KNOW, THE, THE MASKING AND THE UNITS DID COME UP, BUT AFTER THE MOTION WAS MADE, YOU KNOW, I THINK EVERYBODY HAD, UH, DISCUSSED.
OKAY, YES, THIS IS WHAT WE APPROVE.
IF YOU HAVE ANY, YOU KNOW, ANY OTHER CONCERNS, PLEASE SHOW UP AT THE D R C.
AND SO, YOU KNOW, THAT WAS COMMISSIONER FETZER'S MAIN POINT.
IF YOU HAVE AN OPINION, PLEASE SHOW UP AND I REALLY DO TO HELP SHOW UP.
UM, WE DID, UH, WE DID, UM, SCHEDULE A MEETING WITH, UM, THE CONCERNED CITIZENS.
UM, WE SENT IT OUT TO THE MEMBERS, UH, A HANDFUL OF MEMBERS OF THE CONCERNED CITIZENS.
UM, AND WE ALSO REACHED OUT TO OTHER, OTHER PEOPLE, UH, UNFORTUNATELY ONLY MS. LULU, FRAN FRANWELL, I HOPE I'M SAYING THAT CORRECTLY.
AND MS. VALERIE CORTEZ SHOWED UP HALFWAY THROUGH THE MEETING.
MS. LULU FRANWELL HAD TO LEAVE.
SO WE WERE REALLY ONLY SPEAKING TO MS. VALERIE CORTEZ FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF.
UM, BUT WE'VE BEEN, YOU KNOW, UM, OBVIOUSLY I, YOU KNOW, WE DID, WE FINALLY, YOU KNOW, I WE FINALLY FIGURED OUT LIKE, YOU KNOW, YOU AND I, YOU KNOW, WE'RE, WE'RE IN A TWO DIFFERENT, UM, YOU KNOW, SIDES OF THE AISLE, BUT WE DO COMMIT
[01:15:01]
OURSELVES TO, YOU KNOW, CREATING A QUALITY PRODUCT.ULTIMATELY, UM, THEY WANNA SEE ONE HOUSE IN HERE.
I, I DON'T THINK THAT, I'M NOT A, I'M NOT A DEVELOPER THAT'S GONNA GO, WANTS TO SELL $1.5 MILLION HOMES, INDIGNITY HILL.
I'D RATHER GO AND BUILD THREE, UH, THREE TO SIX LITTLE HOUSES THAT PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY ATTAIN.
YOU KNOW, THAT A YEAR, YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ARE SELLING IN THIS TOWN FOR SIX, 700, $800,000.
THAT MEANS THAT, YOU KNOW, UNLESS YOU'RE FROM OUTTA TOWN, YOU'RE, YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO LIVE IN THIS TOWN, IN THIS, IN THIS AREA OF TOWN, WE ARE ACTUALLY BUILDING ATTAINABLE HOUSING THAT PEOPLE CAN ACTUALLY BUY.
UH, I KNOW THAT 300, 400, 380 5,000 DOESN'T SEEM ATTAINABLE, BUT THAT'S CURRENTLY WHERE WE'RE AT, UNFORTUNATELY.
UM, IT'S ACTUALLY A MATTER OF, UH, NUMBERS WE'RE, WE TRY TO BE AS TRANSPARENT WITH MS. VALLEY CORTEZ.
UH, BUT IN THE END, YOU KNOW, SHE HAS AN OPINION AND WE RE WE DO RESPECT THAT.
UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE, SO COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS.
UM, I ONLY HAVE A COUPLE, UM, I'LL HAVE QUITE A BIT WHEN WE GET TO DISCUSSION, BUT I WILL ALLOW MY OTHER COMMISSIONERS OPPORTUNITIES TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS THEY MAY HAVE.
FIRST, UM, FOR STAFF, CAN YOU PLEASE CONFIRM THE FINAL COUNTS, INCLUDING THE VOICEMAILS THAT WE HEARD TODAY? UH, SO FOR FINAL VOTES OR FINAL COUNTS, WE DID HAVE EIGHT NOTICES WITHIN THE 200 FEET THAT WERE IN OPPOSITION.
UM, WE DID THOUGH GET NUITY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IN FAVOR.
AND THEN, UM, SO, AND THEN OUTSIDE OF THE 200 FEET, UH, WE HAD NO, I'M SORRY, I APOLOGIZE.
WITHIN THE 200 FEET WE HAD NINE OPPOSED.
OUTSIDE OF THE 200 FEET, WE HAD EIGHT NOTICES THAT WERE RECEIVED IN OPPOSITION AND THEN THE CONCERNED CITIZENS OF DITY HILL.
AND THEN AS YOU HEARD IN THE VOICEMAIL, WE HAD ONE IN OPPOSITION AND ONE IN FAVOR.
UM, AND THEN STAFF, CAN YOU JUST CONFIRM CURRENT WITH THE CURRENT ZONING BETWEEN THE TWO LOTS, FOUR UNITS TOTAL COULD BE BUILT, CORRECT? YES.
AND THEN A FINAL QUESTION, AND HOPEFULLY THIS IS AN OKAY ONE WITH THE PROPOSED SIX UNITS UNDER THE CURRENT ORDINANCE FOR STR, HOW MANY COULD POTENTIALLY BECOME STR IT'S GONNA DEPEND ON THE BLOCK FACE.
SO WE WOULD HAVE TO DETERMINE HOW MANY TOTAL UNITS THERE ARE, UH, ALONG THAT BLOCK FACE ALONG NORTH CHERRY AND IT, IT COULD BE MORE UNITS THAN WHAT IS UH, LOTS.
SO IT'S 12.5% OF THAT BLOCK FACE IS WHAT IS BY RIGHT.
ANYTHING MORE REQUIRES A SPECIAL EXCEPTION FROM THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT.
OKAY, THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT.
ALRIGHT, NOW I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU.
SPEAKING OF SORT OF THE S T R ISSUE IN BLOCK PHASE, UH, IN THIS CASE WE'D BE LOOKING, LET'S ASSUME FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS QUESTION, UH, THAT THIS PROPOSAL WAS ACCEPTED, SIX UNITS WERE BUILT ON THESE TWO LOTS.
DO ALL SIX OF THOSE UNITS COUNT FOR THE BLOCK FACE OR DO ONLY THE TWO ON THE ACTUAL BLOCK FACE COUNT? SO IT'S TOTAL NUMBER OF UNITS.
SO IF, IF LIKE AN R FOUR LOT HAS A HOUSE AND AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT, THEN THOSE ARE TWO UNITS.
SO IT'S TOTAL NUMBER OF UNITS PERIOD.
SO IF HE HAS THREE AND THE OWNER LIVES IN ONE OF 'EM AND THEY BUILD AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT IN THE BACK, THEN THAT LOT HAS FOUR UNITS.
I THINK THOSE WERE MY QUESTIONS.
ALRIGHT, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? SEEING NONE DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION, I'M GONNA STRESS POTENTIAL AT THIS POINT.
EXCUSE ME, COMMISSIONER MR. WATSON.
SO, UM, TO, THERE'S A FEW THINGS I WANNA CLARIFY, UM, ABOUT THE THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN STATED IN VOICEMAILS AS WELL AS, UM, BY OUR APPLICANT TODAY.
IT IS POSSIBLE TODAY TO DO A PROJECT WITH FOUR HOUSING UNITS ON IT.
WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM ANYONE OPPOSED TO THIS THAT THEY DO NOT WANT TO SEE HOUSING UNITS
[01:20:01]
FOUR IS STILL A VERY REASONABLE NUMBER.UM, AND IT IS POSSIBLE TO DO THAT TODAY.
THERE ARE CONCERNS ABOUT SCALE AND MASSING.
UM, AND WHILE I APPRECIATE PRESENT THE PRESENTATION RESEARCH THAT I WENT, WENT INTO THINGS LIKE THE SANBORN MAP AND TRYING TO ADJUST THE BLOCK FACE TO FIT BETTER WITH THE LOOK OF THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL UNITS.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS IS SIX SINGLE FAMILY HOMES.
THIS ISN'T, UH, SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE WITH AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT THAT CAN PROVIDE AN AFFORDABLE OPTION IN THE BACK, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT AS, AS WAYS TO INCREASE AFFORDABLE HOUSING STOCK IN THE U D C AMENDMENT PROCESS.
SO, SO THERE'S A, THERE'S A VAST DIFFERENCE WITH HAVING FOUR UNITS, UM, THAT ARE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES THAT FIT IN WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH YARDS, UM, AND SOMETHING THAT IS A CONTEMPORARY LOOK THAT HAS SIGNIFICANTLY MORE MASSING THAT THERE IS OVERWHELMING OPPOSITION TO.
UM, AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO NOTE THE LETTER OF SUPPORT FROM THE DITY HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION WAS NOT A LETTER THAT WAS WRITTEN FOR THIS ZONING CASE.
IT WAS SUBMITTED IN FEBRUARY WHEN THE H D R C APPROVAL PROCESS BEGAN FOR EIGHT UNITS.
UM, THEY DID APPROVE IT TO BE USED TODAY, BUT THEY DIDN'T TAKE THE TIME TO WRITE A UNIT, WRITE A LETTER ABOUT THE ZONING CASE TODAY, WHICH I THINK SAYS A LOT ABOUT THEIR INVESTMENT IN, UH, MAKING SURE THAT THIS FITS WITH THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND DOING TRANSPARENT COMMUNICATION.
UM, THE CONCERNED CITIZENS OF DIG DIGNITY HILL ONLY HAD TWO PEOPLE AT THE MEETING, BUT THEY FORWARDED THE NOTES AND THE PRESENTATION AND MUCH OF THE OPPOSITION LETTERS CAME AFTER THAT WAS TRANSPARENTLY COMMUNICATED.
AND AGAIN, IT'S THE SAME ISSUES.
LIKE IT'S NOT AN ISSUE WITH DEVELOPMENT, IT'S AN ISSUE WITH DOES THE DEVELOPMENT SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD? AND IT DOES, UM, BOTH FROM A DESIGN STANDARD PERSPECTIVE, WHICH IS NOT WHAT WE'RE HERE TO DISCUSS, BUT ALSO FOR WHAT IS, WHAT IS LIVABLE, WHAT IS PREFERABLE.
UM, WHILE IT IS CLOSE TO SOME ARTERIALS, IT IS PRIMARILY RESIDENTIAL HOUSING AROUND THIS, THIS LOT, UM, THIS SET OF LOTS AND SO GREAT.
WE'RE GONNA GET FOUR NEW UNITS POTENTIALLY WHETHER THIS DEVELOPER DOES IT OR SOMETHING ELSE, BUT THAT IS A VERY DIFFERENT THING THAN CREATING BASICALLY A COMPLEX OF CONDOS ON WHAT IS CURRENTLY, YOU KNOW, A RESIDENTIAL STREET.
UM, YOU KNOW, HOPEFULLY THAT WAS CLARIFYING FOR MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS.
AND WITH THAT I AM GOING TO MAKE A MOTION FOR DENIAL CONSISTENT WITH STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION.
IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL ACTUALLY SECOND AND I KIND OF AGREE AND JUST MAKE A LITTLE COMMENT OF COURSE, BUT I KINDA AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER WATSON WITH JUST THE, THE LAYOUT OF THE PROPERTY, SEEING THAT THE WAY THIS DEVELOPMENT'S GONNA BE IN THE MIDDLE OF SINGLE FAMILY HOUSES AND IN THE HOUSE, LIKE THEY WERE EXPLAINING WITH ONE OF THE VOICE CALLS WERE THEY DON'T HAVE, UH, PRIVACY IN THE BACKYARD.
SO THIS IS GONNA BE, UH, IN ONE AND THERE'S ONLY ONE INGRESS.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE PEOPLE COMING IN AND OUT OF THAT ONE MAIN STREET WHERE THAT STREET'S NOT SUPPORTIVE OF, OF THE INFLUX OF, UH, TRAFFIC COMING THROUGH.
SO I KIND OF WILL BE SUPPORTING MRS. WATSON'S, UH, DECISION.
THE MOTION IS FOR DENIAL BY COMMISSIONER WATSON WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ORTIZ.
TO MY LEFT DISCUSSION COMMISSIONER TO MY RIGHT.
YEAH, I'M, I I'M, I'M ACTUALLY STRUGGLING WITH THIS, WHICH IS KIND OF UNUSUAL 'CAUSE USUALLY I WOULD BE, UM, A HUNDRED PERCENT IN FAVOR OF THE DENIAL AND, AND, AND I THINK THE REASON IS, IS BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE LOT THAT IT, IT, IT KIND OF SPANS MULTIPLE.
UM, IF YOU LOOK AT THE, SOME OF THE OTHER STREETS, IT, IT, IT'S KIND OF, IT'S NOT JUST A SINGLE, IT DOESN'T, I'M TRYING TO EXPLAIN WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY.
UM, IT IS ESSENTIALLY MULTIPLE LOTS, UM, AND IT'S NOT LIKE WHAT YOU SEE DOWN ON, ON UM, ARMADILLO ALLEY, UM, WHICH IS WAY TOO DENSE IN MY OPINION FOR THAT AREA.
UM, BUT, UH, COMMISSIONER WATSON REALLY MAKES A GOOD A GOOD ARGUMENT AS WELL.
UM, AND I DO SEE THAT THERE IS SIGNIFICANT OPPOSITION MM-HMM.
SO, UM, YEAH, IT'S ACTUALLY A PRETTY TOUGH CASE IN MY OPINION.
CAN I MAKE ALRIGHT, UH, DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONER WHEAT? THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.
SO I, I THINK, YOU KNOW, UM, MORE AFFORDABLE HOMES IN SAN ANTONIO ARE NEEDED, BUT I ALSO FOLLOW, UH, COMMISSIONER WATSON'S, UH, ARGUMENT AGAINST THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT.
SO I'LL BE SUPPORTING HER DENIAL.
UM, YOU KNOW, I THINK THE DISCUSSION OF THE H D R C ACTIONS AND THE D R C ACTIONS, UH, WHILE INTERESTING, UH, ARE NOT NECESSARILY WITHIN OUR PURVIEW.
UM, YOU KNOW, SO THAT HAS VERY LITTLE
[01:25:01]
BEARING ON MY DETERMINATION OF MY VOTE, WHICH I HAVEN'T DECIDED YET.UM, I'M SORT OF WITH COMMISSIONER S SIPES, UH, YOU KNOW, THERE IS SOME UNIQUENESS REGARDING THESE LOTS THAT SEEM TO MAKE THEM VERY DIFFICULT TO DEVELOP.
UH, THAT BEING SAID, I ALSO SEE COMMISSIONER WATSON'S POINT, WHICH IS CURRENTLY WITHOUT ANY REZONING, WE COULD PUT FOUR UNITS ON THESE PROPERTIES AND WORK, YOU KNOW, IN THAT MANNER.
UM, SO IT'S GONNA BE A CLOSE THING FOR ME, BUT THAT'S IT.
YEAH, I DON'T WANT TO CUT YOU OFF.
THAT'S YOU DOING? NO, I, I WAS RAMBLING, SO IT'S FINE.
AND, AND SO I, I I'M JUST GONNA ECHO THOSE COMMENTS AS WELL.
I, I, I'M GONNA RAMBLE AND SAY THIS IS A HARD ONE FOR ME AND I, I USUALLY WANT TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE DEVELOPMENT HERE.
UM, BUT, UM, I THINK I AM PERSUADED BY WHAT COMMISSIONER WATSON SET FORTH AND ON CLOSE CALLS LIKE THIS WHEN THE COMMISSIONER FROM THE DISTRICT FEELS PRETTY STRONGLY ONE WAY.
AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE STAFF WHO, WHO HAS EXTENSIVELY LOOKED AT THIS AND, AND, AND THEY FEEL THE SAME.
UM, IT'S TOUGH FOR ME TO SAY THAT, THAT I KNOW BETTER THAN THEM.
SO OF COURSE I'M PROBABLY LEANING TOWARDS SUPPORTING THE MOTION.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS, COMMISSIONER RE BOTTLES? YES.
UM, I'M, I'M ALWAYS IN FAVOR OF MORE HOUSING AND MORE, UH, HOMES AND ALL THAT, BUT I, I DO HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT THE DESIGN AND HOW THIS LAYOUT AND ALL THAT DOESN'T FIT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
SO I'M GONNA FOLLOW EXACTLY WHAT COMMISSIONER, UM, WATSON SAID.
AND, UH, MARK WHITE SAID IT VERY WELL THAT WE GOTTA LISTEN TO THE COMMISSION THAT KNOWS THAT AREA VERY, VERY WELL.
UM, SO I WILL SUPPORT THE DENIAL.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE.
THE MOTION IS FOR DENIAL BY COMMISSIONER WATSON WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ORTIZ.
I, I, CAN I SAY ONE THING? NO, THANK YOU.
JUST ALRIGHT, WE'RE NOW MOVING ON TO COMM UH, TO ITEM NUMBER 19, PLEASE.
GOOD AFTERNOON, MARCO AVI, PLAN COORDINATOR.
UH, ITEM NUMBER 19 IS LOCATED ON 1672 RIGSBY AVENUE.
UH, GOING FROM R SIX M L O D THREE M L R TWO A H O D TWO R IN FOUR.
23 NOTICES WERE MAILED OUT, UH, ZERO RETURN IN FAVOR, ZERO OPPOSED NO RESPONSE FROM THE PLACEDA HEIGHTS NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION OR SOUTH SIDE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
UM, THE EXISTING R SIX IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE OPPOSE RM FOUR USE OF HIGHER DENSITY NOT ALREADY ESTABLISHED IN THE AREA SURROUNDING PROPERTIES AND USES PRIMARILY ARE PRIMARILY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL WITH ULTIMATE RECOMMENDATION FOR RMM SIX, WHICH WILL ALLOW NO MORE THAN TWO DWELLING UNITS.
UM, AND, UH, THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT FOR ANY QUESTIONS AND WE DO HAVE AN ALTERNATE SITE PLAN, UM, PLAN, UM, THAT HE TURNED IN.
IF THE APPLICANT CAN COME FORWARD, PLEASE INTRODUCE YOURSELF, GIVE US YOUR ADDRESS AND TELL US ABOUT YOUR REZONING REQUEST.
THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS FOR YOUR TIME AND SERVICE HERE.
I, I'M AN ARCHITECT 36 SQUARE REPRESENTING MY CLIENT.
UM, SO ALTHOUGH I'M REQUESTING MULTIPLE PROPERTIES WITHIN A EXISTING LOT, I DO BELIEVE I'M DIFFERENT THAN THE PREVIOUS CASE OR MY PROJECT IS DIFFERENT.
UM, SO YES, WE ARE REQUESTING RMM FOUR TO ALLOW FOR FOUR UNITS.
THIS IS THE SITE PLAN THAT IS NOT AN ALTERNATE, IT'S WHAT IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN SINCE I TRIED TO GET THIS ON THE AGENDA IN EARLY MARCH.
UM, ONE OF THE COMMENTS BY STAFF WAS THAT THIS IS, UH, INAPPROPRIATE BECAUSE THERE ARE ONLY, OR A MAJORITY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES WITHIN THAT AREA.
[01:30:01]
BUT WITH MY OWN RESEARCH, I FIND THAT ISN'T NECESSARILY TRUE.UH, IMMEDIATELY WEST OF THE PROPERTY IS A C TWO OPERATING AS A MARSHMALLOW FOOD SALE VENDOR.
UH, BASICALLY A STORE LIKE A C TWO WOULD BE TO THE RIGHT.
IT IS ZONED R FOUR BUT, OR EXCUSE ME, R SIX.
BUT IT IS ACTUALLY AN AUTO MECHANIC.
THERE'S A TRAILER HOME ON THE PROPERTY, A REALLY LARGE WORK AREA, SHADE STRUCTURE AND CARS AND TRUCKS EVERYWHERE, UH, ACROSS THE STREET.
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE MULTIPLE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES, THEY'RE ALL ZONED I ONE.
UM, AND SEVERAL OF THOSE HAVE MORE THAN A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE ON IT.
THERE'S ALSO AN MF 33 ACROSS THE STREET THAT DOES HAVE MULTIPLE UNITS.
UH, STAFF STATED THAT THEY'RE RECOMMENDING, RECOMMENDING DENIAL BASED ON A CONCERN OF MORE DENSITY AND THAT IT WILL HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE PUBLIC HEALTH SAFETY AND WELFARE.
UH, I WOULD ARGUE THAT PROVIDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT DESPERATELY NEEDS IT IS NOT A NEGATIVE TO THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
UM, MY CLIENTS ARE SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS, BUT THEY DO OWN A NUMBER OF PROPERTIES.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY, I'VE LOOKED AT ABOUT 10 OF THEM.
AND THEY WANNA REPEAT THIS STRATEGY THROUGHOUT THE SOUTHEAST SIDE.
AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS NOT TO SELL THESE PROPERTIES AT HIGH PROFIT, BUT THEY'RE LOOKING TO BUILD AFFORDABLE RENTALS USING HUD GUIDELINES BASED ON NUMBER OF BEDROOMS FOR DETERMINING THE RENT STRUCTURE.
UH, THESE ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED RENTAL HOUSES WITHIN OUR CITY.
THEY ARE NOT FOR-PROFIT SPECULATIVE FLIPS OR BUILD AND SELL.
THE STAFF RECOMMENDS R SIX AT ONE POINT THEY SAID WITH FOUR UNITS, I THINK NOW THEY'RE SAYING WITH TWO UNITS, UH, THE FOUR UNITS WOULD NOT WORK WITH R SIX BECAUSE OF THE 20 FOOT REAR SETBACK.
UH, THE WAY MY SITE PLAN IS DEVELOPED, WE'RE UTILIZING R M FOUR, UH, WITH 10 FOOT REAR SETBACK, 10 FOOT FRONT FIVE ON THE SIDES, UH, AS WELL, WE COULD EASILY BE HERE TODAY ASKING FOR IDZ TWO, TRYING TO WAVE PARKING REQUIREMENTS, WAVE SOME OF THE SETBACKS AND GET MORE DENSITY ON THIS LAND.
BUT INSTEAD WE WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL AND STICK TO THE LETTER OF THE LAW IN TERMS OF R M FOUR.
SO WE'RE ACTUALLY COMPLYING WITH ALL THE SETBACKS FOR R M FOUR AND WE'RE EXCEEDING THE PARKING REQUIREMENTS NECESSARY FOR R M FOUR BY PROVIDING TWO PER HOME.
UH, THAT'S GONNA HELP US, UM, BECAUSE ONE MAJOR PROBLEM WITH BUILDING DENSITY IS MAKING SURE THAT YOU ALLOW FOR ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT COME ALONG WITH SOMEONE LIVING IN A HOME.
THESE ARE GONNA BE THREE AND FOUR BEDROOM PROPERTIES, UH, GEARED SPECIFICALLY TOWARDS FAMILIES LIVING IN THEM.
WE'RE REALLY TALKING ABOUT HUD RENTALS.
UH, SO PROVIDING TWO PARKING SPACES, UH, TRYING TO GET THEM ALL COVERED AND ENCLOSED, UH, IS REALLY NECESSARY FOR FAMILIES TO LIVE.
THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO PARALLEL PARK ALONG RIGSBY AVENUE THAT'S EITHER NOT ALLOWED OR REALLY NOT SAFE.
UM, SO I WOULD ARGUE THAT THE CONTEXT OF BUILDING INFILL DEVELOPMENT ALONG RIGSBY AVENUE IS A MUCH DIFFERENT THING THAN WITHIN DIGNITY HILL OR DENVER HEIGHTS OR MANKEY PARK OR TOBIN HILL WHERE YOU SEE THESE BEING BUILT EVERY SINGLE WEEK.
ALL SURROUNDING MY HOUSE IN DENVER HEIGHTS.
UM, THESE I BELIEVE ARE A MORE RESPECTFUL DESIGN THAN WHAT PEOPLE ARE PLUGGING IN THROUGH NEIGHBORHOODS USING.
I IDZ TWO TALKING ABOUT RIGSBY AVENUE AS WELL.
YOU SEE A REALLY DIVERSE MIX OF USES THAT DO NOT EVEN COMPLY WITH THE ZONING DESIGNATIONS THEY HAVE THERE.
THERE ARE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ALONG RIGSBY, BUT I WOULD NOT SAY THAT THAT IS, THAT IT IS A SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT FOR ALL THE PROPERTIES THAT FACE RIGSBY AVENUE.
REALLY, THERE ARE A LOT OF COMMERCIAL STORES, THERE ARE CAR DEALERSHIPS, CAR REPAIR SHOPS, UH, AND MULTIPLE DWELLINGS ON LOTS THAT ARE R SIX
SO THE OTHER THING I GUESS IN TERMS OF THE, THE COMMENT ABOUT MOST OF THE AREAS, SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL THAT STAFF MADE AND LOOKING JUST AT THE NOTIFICATION AREA BOUNDARY, UH, IN WHICH NO ONE
[01:35:01]
RESPONDED NEGATIVE OR POSITIVE, 52% OF THOSE PROPERTIES ARE NOT SINGLE FAMILY ZONING.SO IT IS NOT A STRETCH TO SAY THAT MIXED RESIDENTIAL IS OUT OF LINE.
THAT, UH, I THINK THAT'S ALL MY COMMENTS AND I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO ANSWER ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS.
UH, ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ITEM? NO, SIR.
THIS IS A DISTRICT THREE CASE, BUT AS COMMISSIONER FUENTES IS, UH, NOT PRESENT TODAY, UNFORTUNATELY, I'M GONNA GIVE IT TO COMMISSIONER SIPES.
UM, ONE OF THE QUESTIONS I HAD WAS, WE'RE WE'RE FOUR UNITS IS WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR, CORRECT? YES SIR.
UM, THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE.
ANY QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT.
COMMISSIONER WHITE, UM, FOR STAFF, THE, UH, THE ALTERNATE RECOMMENDATION YES, SIR.
SO HE WOULD BE LIMITED TO THE TWO UNITS WITH THE ALTERNATE RECOMMENDATION.
BUT THE DOOR 60, IT'LL BE LESS.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER ORGI? THAT WAS JUST MY QUESTION.
UH, COMMENT REGARDING THE SITE PLAN.
ARE THESE APARTMENTS GONNA BE BUILT ABOVE THE GARAGE SO PRETTY MUCH YOU HAVE A GARAGE AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE PRETTY MUCH A CONDOS OR STUDIOS ON TOP OF EACH OTHER? IS THAT THE, THAT THE PLAN FOR YOUR YES, IT'S, WELL IF YOU GO BACK TO THE SITE PLAN, IT VARIES DEPENDING ON WHICH TWO UNITS YOU REFER TO.
THE TWO IN THE FRONT, IT IS PRIMARILY PARKING GARAGE ON THE GROUND FLOOR, UH, WITH SOME STORAGE FOR ALL THE OTHER THINGS PEOPLE WANNA CARRY ALONG WITH THEM.
A STAIR GOING UP AND THEN IT WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, THREE, FOUR BEDROOM RESIDENCES ON THE UPPER FLOORS.
AND THEN WOULD YOU HAVE PATIOS AND THE EXTERIOR OF THESE, THESE APARTMENT COM? YES.
EACH ONE WILL HAVE A, A PORCH, YOU KNOW.
GEARED TO LOOK LIKE A TRADITIONAL HOME AND OLDER NEIGHBORHOODS, WHICH IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.
AND THE FRONT ONE WOULD FACE RIGSBY AVENUE SPECIFICALLY WITH THE FRONT PORCH ON THE FRONT FACADE.
COMMISSIONER'S QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER WHITE, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU WANT TO, YOU WANT TO ADD ONE? YEAH.
FOR STAFF AGAIN, WHAT'S THE, THE, UH, AND I LOOKED AT THE SUMMARY, BUT JUST BRIEFLY AGAIN, I APOLOGIZE.
THE, THE OPPOSITION TO FOUR UNITS IS WHAT, WHAT'S THE MAIN REASON? UM, SO IT HAS TO DO WITH THE SIZE AND JUST THE AREA OF, UH, WHERE IN RIGSBEE AVENUE IS HE? HE IS RIGHT.
THERE'S A LOT OF COMMERCIAL THERE.
BUT THE DIRECT AREA THAT HE'S IN, UM, IT IS FROM WHAT WE SAW SINGLE FAMILY AND TO THE NORTH IT IS I ONE OR I TWO, UH, THAT CAME FROM THE 2000 CONVERSION OF THE 1938 CODE TO THE PRESENT CODE.
THAT'S WHY IT'S, THE ZONING IS KIND OF A LITTLE MESSY IN THE AREA.
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO STAY TRUE TO THE, THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL NATURE, ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE STREET.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE HOUSES ACROSS THE STREET, THEY'RE ALL LITTLE SINGLE FAMILY QUAINT HOMES.
UM, AND THEN BOTH OF THE PROPERTIES NEXT TO HIM ARE RESIDENTIAL AS WELL.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT THEY'RE DOING TO THE EAST SIDE.
UM, BUT THERE IS A LITTLE HOME THERE.
AND THEN THEY HAVE LIKE A BIG COVERED PATIO THING.
SO I'M NOT SURE IF THEY'RE OUT OF A COMPLIANCE WITH THEIR ZONING OR IF THEY'RE NON-CONFORMING, BUT THEY MAY HAVE SOME OTHER LITTLE FUNCTION GOING ON THERE RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
YOU, YOU MAY I ADDRESS THAT? THE, WHERE THE C TWO IS 6 78.
1678 IS A, IS A RESIDENTIAL WITH A YEAH, THERE'S A LITTLE THERE.
AND THEN TO THE OTHER SIDE OF IT, WE'VE GOT C TWO, RIGHT? YES.
BUT THE C TWO IS DEVELOPED AS A SINGLE FAMILY HOME.
AND THAT'S WHY MERKEL WAS TALKING ABOUT THE CONVERSION FACTOR.
UH, REMEMBER WHEN THAT HAPPENED IN 2001? SOME OF THE PROPERTIES, UH, CONVERTED TO I ONE AND THEY HAD SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ON THEM.
AND SO THEN, UH, OTHER CONVERSIONS CREATED THIS KIND OF SITUATION AS WELL.
MAY I ADDRESS THAT FROM STEP, HOLD ON.
DO YOU WANT TO ASK A QUESTION ABOUT THAT? NO, THANK YOU.
IF, IF, IF WE ASK A QUESTION, YOU CAN ANSWER.
UH, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS TO MY LEFT, TO MY RIGHT.
UM, BECAUSE COMMISSIONER FUENTES IS NOT HERE TODAY.
COMMISSIONER SIPES, IT'S TO YOU FOR A MOTION AND I'M GONNA DO THE EASY THING AND PUNT.
UM, SINCE COMMISSIONER FUENTES IS NOT HERE.
AND, UH, THERE'S LOTS OF QUESTIONS IT SEEMS. AND UM, I'M GONNA MAKE A MOTION FOR A CONTINUANCE TO THE JULY 5TH MEETING.
THERE IS A MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE TO
[01:40:01]
JULY 5TH.SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WATSON.
UM, ANY DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS? COMMISSIONER TO I RIGHT.
UH, IN THIS CASE, BECAUSE COMMISSIONER FUENTES IS NOT PRESENT AND IT'S A DISTRICT THREE CASE.
I THINK, UH, THE CONTINUANCE JULY 5TH IS PROBABLY THE BEST IDEA AT THIS TIME.
SO THE MOTION IS FOR A CONTINUANCE JULY 5TH BY COMMISSIONER S SIPES WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WATSON.
MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE TO UNTIL JULY 5TH.
[Approval of Minutes]
OUR LE OUR NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM NUMBER 20, WHICH IS, UH, THE APPROVAL OF THE JUNE 7TH, 2022 MEETING MINUTES.ARE THERE ANY CORRECTIONS, AMENDMENTS, THINGS OF THAT NATURE? HEARING NONE.
IS THERE A MOTION? MOTION TO APPROVE AS SUBMITTED? IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.
UH, WE CAN DO THIS BY ACCLIMATION.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION TO APPROVE SAY AYE.
ALRIGHT, THE MINUTES ARE APPROVED.
IS THERE ANY FURTHER BUSINESS BEFORE THIS COMMISSION? ANY DIRECTOR'S REPORT? NO SIR.
IN THAT CASE, THE TIME IS 2 43 AND THIS MEETING OF THE ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO IS ADJOURNED.
