UH, AND I THINK RIGHT NOW IT'S, UH, FROM THE NINE 19 AND NINE 15, THEY'RE SUGGESTING THE RM SIX AND THEN THE, FOR THE 9 0 7 WAS A RM FOUR, BUT IF WE COULD DO AT LEAST THE RM FOUR FOR ALL THREE, UH, WE'D BE HAPPY. BUT WE WERE AGAINST THE REZONING. UH, JUST EV PUTTING EVERYBODY UNDER ONE UMBRELLA. I MEAN TWO HALF ACRES AND AN ACRE DOESN'T MAKE NO SENSE FOR ME TO BE CUTTING GRASS FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS. SO, THANKS. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU MR. RICH AND MS. UH, PRISCILLA RICH. HELLO. YOU HEARD FROM MY HUSBAND. I'M PRISCILLA RICH. I LIVE AT 3 35 DREWRY LANE AND, UH, WE OWN THREE PROPERTIES IN THE ZONING AREA TO, TO BE REZONED. UM, WE WERE, WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT, UM, THE REASON FOR THIS IS TO MAKE IT CONSISTENT WITH ITS CURRENT USE AND THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN HEARING FROM THE PREVIOUS TWO MEETINGS THAT WE ATTENDED AT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. HOWEVER, BASED ON A, A LIST THAT WAS GENERATED ON MARCH 21ST, 2025, IT'S NOT CONSISTENT. THERE ARE SOME PROPERTIES THAT ARE BEING LEFT AS MULTIFAMILY 33, SOME ARE VACANT LOTS. AND WE WERE TOLD THAT ANY VACANT LOT WOULD BE ZONED R SIX SINGLE FAMILY. AND I SEE THAT, I DON'T KNOW IF FOREST OR ASHLEY, I TALKED TO HIM BRIEFLY BEFORE WE CAME IN, HAS HAD A CHANCE TO, TO REVIEW IT AGAIN OR IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY CHANGES SINCE MARCH 21ST. BUT THERE IS NOT CONSISTENCY. I DON'T WANNA TAKE ANY ZONING AWAY FROM OTHER PEOPLE THAT WANNA KEEP IT AS IS. WE WOULD WOULD'VE LIKED TO KEEP IT MULTI-FAMILY 33 BECAUSE IT'S MORE, UH, VALUE TO US IF WE DECIDE TO SELL IT IN THE FUTURE OR HANDED DOWN TO OUR CHILDREN AND THEY CAN SELL [00:20:01] IT. BUT IF THAT'S NOT A POSSIBILITY, THEN AT LEAST GIVE US, UM, RM FOUR, WHICH ALLOWS FOR FOUR UNITS, BUT THERE IS NOT CONSISTENCY. A HUNDRED PERCENT CONSISTENCY ON THIS LIST OF 1300 RESIDENCES. AGAIN, THERE ARE SOME LOTS THAT ARE BEING LEFT MULTIFAMILY AND, UH, SOME, SOME, UH, ADDRESSES THAT MAY HAVE TWO BUILDINGS ON IT, BUT THEY'RE BEING, UH, RECOMMENDED AS RM FOUR. SO WE'D LIKE THE SAME. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU MS. RED. OKAY, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT, UH, ANY FURTHER? AND WELL, WE ACTUALLY ALSO, I JUST WANTED TO CONFIRM I HAVE A MS. ISIS DIAZ WHO HAD SIGNED UP. IS SHE STILL HERE? THEY DIDN'T CALL ME. OKAY. UM, AND THEN WE DO HAVE A VOICEMAIL FOR ITEM NUMBER 30. I RESIDE AT 2215 WEST SALINAS. MY PHONE NUMBER IS (210) 296-4112. I'M RESPONDING TO THE ZONING CASE NUMBER Z 2 0 2 5 1 0 7 0 0 0 7 1. MY FAMILY HAS BEEN IN THE PRO HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ON THE WEST SIDE FOR MORE THAN 100 YEARS, AND I HAVE BEEN LIVING IN MY FAMILY'S HOME FOR THE LAST 27 YEARS. I BELIEVE THAT THE WEST SIDE HAS GREAT POTENTIAL FOR GROWTH AND NEEDS TO LOOK FORWARD AND EMBRACE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN ALIGNMENT WITH HOW OUR CITY IS GROWING AND CHANGING. I'M IN FAVOR OF THE ZONING CHANGE REQUEST SUBMITTED FOR WAREHOUSE FIVE ON BUENA VISTA STREET. THE NS HAVE BUILT A UNIQUE BUSINESS MODEL THAT ALLOWS SMALL, MANY TIMES STARTUP BUSINESSES TO HAVE A PHYSICAL SPACE TO OPERATE OUT OF SIDE BY SIDE WITH OTHER ENTREPRENEURS. W FIVE HAS BEEN AN OP IN OPERATION FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS AND ATTRACTS PATRONS FROM ALL PARTS OF THE CITY TO THE NEAR WEST SIDE DAILY. IT HAS BECOME PART OF THE BROADER WEST COMMERCE WINNE VISTAS CORRIDOR BUSINESS INCUBATORS, ATTRACTING A DIVERSE MIX OF BUSINESSES, ARTISTS, CRAFTSMEN, AND CREATIVES TO BUILDINGS THAT HAVE HISTORICALLY SAT VACANT FOR LONG PERIODS. W FIVE PATRONS AND THE W FIVE BUSINESS OWNERS THEMSELVES IN TURN PASS IT FORWARD BY ALSO SUPPORTING THE LOCAL RESTAURANTS AND TRADITIONAL SMALL BUSINESSES THAT ARE ALSO IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THE REZONING REQUEST WILL ALLOW W FIVE TO ATTRACT A WIDER AUDIENCE OF POTENTIAL BUSINESS TENANTS, COMPLIMENTING THOSE ALREADY IN THE BUILDING. ALL BUSINESSES NEED TO ADAPT AND CHANGE TO CONTINUE BEING SUCCESSFUL. AND I BELIEVE THIS REZONING WILL ALLOW THE WAREHOUSE FIVE TO THRIVE AS AN ANCHOR IN THE WEST SIDE COMMUNITY. I SUPPORT THIS ZONING REQUEST AND STRONGLY FEEL THAT THE ENTREPRENEURS LIKE THE NEIGHBORS ARE THE CORNERSTONE OF ECONOMIC GROWTH ON THE NEAR WEST SIDE OF SAN ANTONIO. RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED. THANK YOU JOSEPH. A . AND THAT IS IT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE CONSENT AGENDA. ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONERS, ANY ITEMS TO BE PULLED AT THIS TIME? LOOKING LEFT, LOOKING RIGHT. ALRIGHT. UH, THE FLOOR IS NOW OPEN FOR A MOTION. UH, BEFORE WE DO THAT, MR. CHAIR, IF YOU WOULD LIKE, WE CAN HAVE A FOREST ADDRESS. THE COUPLE OF ADDRESSES THAT WERE NOTED FOR THE RECORD. YES. IF WE COULD. YEAH, SO, UH, THERE WERE, UH, A, THERE WAS ONE PROPERTY THAT WAS JUST BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION OUTSIDE THAT HAS THE SAME ADDRESS AND IS CONNECTED TO ANOTHER PROPERTY WITH THAT ADDRESS THAT WE ARE RECOMMENDING A CHANGE FOR. JUST MAY HAVE APPEARED ON OUR LIST THAT THAT ONE HAD NO CHANGE, BUT IT WAS ELSEWHERE ON OUR LIST SAYING THAT THERE IS A CHANGE HAPPENING ON THAT ONE. OKAY. UH, IT, IT WAS 1127 WEST VEST IS THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION. ANYTHING ELSE? UH, WE, UH, DID OUR BEST TO REMAIN CONSISTENT WITH WHAT IS ON THE GROUND. SO IT WAS MENTIONED THAT WE WOULD REZONE PROPERTIES TO VACANT PROPERTIES TO R SIX. THAT'S NOT ENTIRELY ACCURATE. WE LOOK AT ALL OF THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES, SO WE MAY RE RECOMMEND AN R SIX OR A SINGLE FAMILY ZONING DISTRICT ON A VACANT PROPERTY, BUT NOT BECAUSE IT'S VACANT. ALRIGHT, VERY GOOD. UH, AND MR. AND MRS. RICH, UH, SPECIFICALLY WE ARE A RECOMMENDING BODY, WHICH MEANS PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH, UH, THE CITY STAFF AS THIS PROJECT MAY OR MAY NOT GO ON TO CITY COUNCIL, BUT, YOU KNOW, UH, TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU WANT OUR M FOUR, UH, KEEP WORKING WITH MR.

I'M CALLING ABOUT THE, UH, MOTEL SIX THAT'S GONNA BE TURNED INTO SOME, UH, IDENTITY, UH, LOW COST HOUSING, I BELIEVE, AND JUST A FEW THINGS THAT CAME TO MIND. UH, I THINK YOU'D BE, UH, PUTTING A LOT OF PEOPLE CLOSE TO THE NOISE POLLUTION THAT THE PLANES, UH, WOULD, UM, DISRUPT THEIR, UH, PEACEFUL SLEEP AND THEIR CHILDREN ASLEEP. AND, UH, UH, I WAS ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT INCREASE IN CAR TRAFFIC FROM ALL AND PARKING ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH, UM, YOU KNOW, UH, FAMILIES WITH MORE THAN ONE CAR. UH, NO PLACE FOR CHILDREN'S TO, TO PLAY. UM, AND, UM, AFTER SCHOOL, IT, IT WOULD BE UNSAFE TO HAVE THEM ANYWHERE NEAR 2 81. UH, THERE ARE, THERE'S NO LOCAL GROCERY STORE AND I, I, I CAN SEE MORE JUST GUARDED GROCERY CART ALL OVER THE PLACE FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE TO PUSH 'EM ALL THE WAY FROM THE A B AT WEST AVENUE TWO EIGHT AND, AND, UH, UH, BLANCO OR ALL THE WAY FROM BROOK HOLLOW CLOSEST ATVS, UM, POSSIBLE INCREASE IN CRIME AND SECTION EIGHT HOUSING. I DON'T KNOW. THAT'S AN ISSUE THAT I DON'T WANT ANY MORE CRIME. UM, THERE'S GONNA PUT A STRAIN ON OUR LOCAL, POSSIBLY ON OUR LOCAL SCHOOLS. UM, I'VE SEEN A LOT OF HIGH DENSITY, UM, APARTMENT. GOOD MORNING. MY NAME IS CAROL GALLOWAY. I LIVE AT 1123 HALL TOWN, H-A-L-T-O-W-N SEVEN EIGHT TWO ONE THREE. THIS PHONE NUMBER IS (210) 273-8743. I'M CALLING YOU REGARDING TO CASE Z 2 0 2 5 DASH 1 0 7 TRIPLE 0 6 3. MY COMMENT IS I DON'T REALLY HAVE A DIRECT INTEREST SINCE I DON'T LIVE DOWN THERE ADJACENT TO THE MOTEL SIX, BUT THIS IS SO UNSUITABLE THAT I MUST EXPRESS MYSELF. YOU KNOW, IT'S BEEN UNSUITABLE FOR DECADES BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION RIGHT NEAR THE, YOU KNOW, CRASH, THE APPROACH TO THE RUNWAY CRASH, PRUDENTIAL CRASH ZONE. SO, UH, THERE'S SO MANY PROBLEMS DOWN THERE THAT [00:30:01] SPEAK AGAINST PERMANENT RESIDENCY. I MEAN, NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, THERE'S PROBABLY NOT ENOUGH PARKING. THEY DON'T HAVE A PLAN YET, SO IF ADOPTED, THEY WOULD PROBABLY BE PARKING ALL OVER ADJACENT STREETS. UH, AND, UH, THERE'S NO AMENITIES FOR PEOPLE DOWN THERE TO BE SUCCESSFUL. NO GROCERY STORE, UH, THERE'S, IT PUTS PEOPLE AT RISK. THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN UNSUITABLE FOR DECADES FOR PERMANENT RESIDENCY, AND NOW IT'S DEEMED AS SUITABLE FOR THE INDIGENT. I THINK THAT SPEAKS VOLUMES ABOUT THE MOTIVATIONS HERE, AND I HATE TO BE NASTY, BUT YOU KNOW, IT, IT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE IT'S A GRAB TO SOLIDIFY GUARANTEED INCOME AT THE EXPENSE OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE NO CHOICES. AND, UM, THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAVE TO SAY, AND I, AND I HOPE YOU, I, I HOPE YOU LET THIS DOWN. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'M CALLING IN REGARDS TO THE MEETING ABOUT, UH, CASE D 0 2 5 1 0 7 0 0 0 6 3. MY NAME IS DENNIS KIRSCH, K-I-R-S-C-H. MY ADDRESS IS 1 1 7 1 2 ION DRIVE, AND THAT'S 7 8 2 1 6. WHAT I'M GOING TO DO IS ABSOLUTE OBJECT TO THE, UH, MOTEL SIX OR WHAT USED TO BE MOTEL SIX, NOW TWO YEAR SIX TO BE TURNED INTO LOW INCOME HOUSING. IT'S A HORRIBLE LOCATION FOR ANY KIND OF RESIDENTIAL USE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A, AN INDUSTRIAL AND BUSINESS AREA, AND THE RIGHT ADJACENT TO THE CLEAR ZONE OF THE AIRPORT, WHICH IS RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE AIRPORT. A HIGHLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. HEAVY TRAFFIC, NOTHING AT ALL FOR ANY PEOPLE TO DO THERE. NOT CLOSE TO ANY KIND OF GROCERY STORES, DEPARTMENT STORES, NO SHOPPING AT BIG TIME. AND IT, IT'S RIDICULOUS. YOU COULD NOT PICK A BETTER PLACE IF YOU WANTED TO TURN, UH, SAN ANTONIO IN TO SOMETHING LIKE A 1900 TENEMENT HOUSE THAT YOU MIGHT FIND IN NEW YORK CITY. IT'S AN ACTUALLY HORRIBLE IDEA, UH, TO HAVE SOMETHING THERE. IN LIVE INDUSTRY, IN INDUSTRIAL PARK, IT'S A LONG DISTANCE OF SHOPPING IN SCHOOLS, PARKS, PLAY AREAS, RIDE ADJACENT TO THE AIRPORT WITH ALL ITS TOYS. A TINY AREA UNSUITABLE FOR ANY KIND OF FAMILY LIVING. IT IS, IT IS, IT IS JUST DISASTER WRITTEN ALL OVER IT. IT'S INCOMPATIBLE PLAN. UH, THE TRAFFIC PROBLEM IS, IS, UH, JUST AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER AS FAR AS SAFETY GOES. THAT'S HIGH TRAFFIC AND IT'S LAN BOYER AND WE LIVE AT 1 1 5 1 1 SONARA COURT. AND OUR, MY PHONE NUMBER IS (210) 215-2144. I'M CALLING BACK CASE NUMBER 0 6 3. REGARDING THE MOTEL SIX REZONING ISSUE, I WANNA SAY VERY CLEARLY THAT WE ARE 100% AGAINST THIS ZONING CHANGE. OUR FAMILY HAS BEEN HOMEOWNERS IN THE HARMONY HILLS AND TENTED FOREST AREA FOR 25 YEARS. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS ARE ACTUALLY BEING DISCRIMINATED AGAINST. WITH THIS ZONING CHANGE PROPOSAL, RESIDENTS AS A NEIGHBORHOOD HAVE WORKED VERY HARD TO KEEP OUR NEIGHBORHOODS SAFE, CLEAN, AND TO HELP BUILD A COMMUNITY WHERE FAMILIES WANNA LIVE AND RAISE THEIR CHILDREN. OVER THE YEARS, WE'VE WATCHED THE ENTIRE AREA AROUND AT THE ROAD AND BE, AND WE'VE BECOME SURROUNDED BY LOW INCOME HOUSING. WE DON'T NEED OR WANT ANY MORE OF IT. THIS HAS HAD A DIRECT EFFECT ON OUR PROPERTY VALUES, OUR SCHOOLS, OUR QUALITY OF LIFE, AND WE DON'T LIKE IT. WE ALREADY HAVE THE APARTMENTS ON SAHARA WITH THE TRENDY IN IOWA. GANG RECENTLY TOOK OVER THE APARTMENTS BEHIND HEB AT WEST AVENUE AND BLANCO, WHICH CHANGED DRAMATICALLY AFTER HURRICANE KATRINA. I BELIEVE IT CAME SECTION EIGHT, THE NIGHTMARE THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN ON SAN PEDRO, INSIDE LUKE FOUR 10 WITH A RIDICULOUS GREEN LINE INITIATIVE. AND MORE RECENTLY, THE NEW APARTMENTS ON INNER PARK THAT, UH, RECENTLY WENT IN STOP ALREADY. THIS AEROS OUR PROPERTY VALUE AND CRIME INCREASES. WE DEAL WITH ENOUGH PROPERTY AND VEHICLE CRIME AS IT IS. I PERSONALLY KNOW BUSINESS OWNERS ON CONSTANTLY TELL ME THEY DEAL WITH CRIME AT THEIR BUSINESSES, THEFT TAG, VANDALISM, AND I'M SURE THE OTHER BUSINESSES AREA ALL DEAL WITH THE SAME ISSUES, TO COMA, TO RHAPSODY, ALL IN THE AREA, ALL THE WAY OVER TO THE IN EMBASSY SUITE. WE ALSO KNOW A LOT OF DRUG ACTIVITY OCCURS AT THAT MOTEL SIX LOCATION ALREADY, AND THAT'S PROBABLY NOT GONNA CHANGE. [00:35:02] IT'S BAD ENOUGH BY ITSELF. THERE'S MORE THAN ENOUGH LOW INCOME HOUSING IN OUR AREA FOR SURE, AND WE DON'T WANT ANY MORE OF IT IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WHY IS THIS EVEN BEEN CONSIDERED WITH A REZONING? THIS ALREADY, I'M CALLING IN REFERENCE TO CASE NUMBER Z 2 0 2 5 1 0 7 0 0 6 3. MY NAME IS GARY GIBBONS. I LIVE ON SANDMAN STREET IN HARMONY HILLS. I ALSO OWN A 4,000 SQUARE FOOT COMMERCIAL BUILDING ON DRIVE IN BEACON HILL INDUSTRIAL PARK. THIS BUSINESS PARK IS COMPRISED OF CLASS B BUILDINGS THAT ARE MOSTLY OWNER OCCUPIED WITH MANY OWNERS OR EMPLOYEES WHO LIVE NEARBY IN HARMONY HILLS. I'M OPPOSED TO THIS ZONING REQUEST. I WAS APPOINTED TO THE GREATER AIRPORT AREA REGIONAL CENTER PLAN COMMITTEE. THIS COMMITTEE WAS COMPRISED OF CITY STAFF, PROFESSIONAL PLANNERS AND CONSULTANTS AND AREA STAKEHOLDERS. WE MET FOR NEARLY 18 MONTHS TO CONSIDER THE HIGHEST AND BEST USE FOR THE PROPERTIES IN THIS REGION. WE RECENTLY CONCLUDED OUR WORK AND OFFERED IT TO THE CITY COUNCIL. THIS PLAN WILL BEGIN THE ADOPTION PROCESS SOON. UNTIL THEN, THE AREA LAND USE MUST BE EVALUATED BY THE SAN ANTONIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VICINITY PLAN. THIS PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED SEA BUSINESS, WHICH IS AN OUTLIER IN THIS INDUSTRIAL PARK. IT FRONTS IN A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH THE ONLY ENTRANCE, THE ACCESS ROAD TO US 2 81. IT IS SURROUNDED BY INDUSTRIAL ZONING, INCLUDING OUTDOOR STORAGE, METAL BUILDINGS, MACHINERY, CONSTRUCTION, CRANES AND AIRCRAFT REPAIR, THE VERY DEFINITION OF INDUSTRIAL, LOUD, DUSTY TRUCK TRAFFIC, BARBED WIRE SECURITY FENCING. THE PROPERTY IS IN THE FLIGHT PATH OF THE SAN ANTONIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AND IS SUBJECT TO NOISE CONTOUR MONITORING. AS MENTIONED, IT FRONTS A SIX LANE STATE HIGHWAY, A MAJOR TRANSPORTATION LANE, BRINGING GOODS AND SERVICES FROM MEXICO NORTH TO THE US MORNING, THIS IS GERALDINE IGA PETERS. I LIVE AT SIX 12 STRINGS DRIVE. I'M CALLING REGARDING THE, UH, UH, CASE NUMBER, UH, THAT ENDS IN 0 6 3. IT IS A HOTEL, AN EXTENDED STAY, A HOTEL THAT IS BEING, UH, PROPOSED TO, TO THE APARTMENTS PERMANENT LIVING QUARTERS FOR PEOPLE. AND IT IS A HORRIBLE IDEA. UH, THE, UH, EXTENDED STAY MOTEL SIX IS APPROXIMATELY ONE MILE FROM WHERE I LIVE. UH, IT, IT IS LOCATED IN A, UH, VERY STERILE, UH, UNINVITING, UH, AREA FOR YOU'RE GONNA HAVE CHILDREN, UH, BECAUSE IT IS AN INDUSTRIAL PARK RIGHT BY THE AIRPORT. THE AIRPLANES COME ABOVE, UH, AND, UH, MAKE A LOT OF NOISE, A LOT OF RATTLE, UH, AND, UH, IT COULD BE HORRIFIC FOR INFANT AND THE SOUND IS NOT ANYTHING THAT SHOULD BE, UH, THAT THEY SHOULD BE EXPOSED TO. AND ALSO THE CONDITIONS ARE, ARE, ARE JUST, THERE'S NO PARK. THE SCHOOL, UH, THE SCHOOL, ELEMENTARY SCHOOL WOULD BE A MILE AWAY AND, UM, CLOSEST HEB WOULD BE FOUR MILES AWAY. THIS IS NOT HOW A FAMILY EVEN A, A SOMEONE WHO'S JUST TRYING TO GET OFF THEIR FEET. I APPRECIATE THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO A, UM, UH, THIS, THIS IS NOT THE ALLEGED TRYING TO PUT IN LOW INCOME APARTMENTS AND HOUSING, AFFORDABLE HOUSING. I DON'T THINK THAT THAT IT IS AFFORDABLE AND I CERTAINLY WOULD NOT HAVE PEOPLE LIVING THERE. PLEASE COME UP WITH A BETTER IDEA. MARY RAMON. AND WE OWN A BUSINESS LOCATED AT 2 0 2 BRAUS DRIVE IN SAN ANTONIO, SEVEN EIGHT TWO ONE SIX. UH, OUR PHONE NUMBER IS TWO TEN THREE FOUR NINE NINE FIVE THREE FOUR. AND I'M CALLING IN REFERENCE TO CASE NUMBER, UH, ENDING IN 0 6 3. UH, WE'RE CALLING, UM, BECAUSE WE DO, UM, WE ARE IN OPPOSITION OF THESE, OF THIS REZONING CHANGE, UM, FROM NOVEMBER, 2024 THROUGH MARCH 31ST, THERE HAVE BEEN NINE 19 INCIDENCES WHERE SAPD, UM, HAVE BEEN INVOLVED EITHER AT THE PROPERTY OF INTEREST, UH, OR THE NEIGHBORING, UM, [00:40:01] SURROUNDING, UH, INDUSTRIAL AREA AROUND IT. UH, WHICH INCLUDES 14 THEFTS, ONE FIREARM DISCHARGE, TWO WANTED PERSON ARREST, TWO NARCOTIC, UM, ARREST, TWO PROSTITUTION ARREST. UM, THAT'S JUST FROM NOVEMBER TO, UH, THE END OF, UH, MARCH. UM, THIS LOCATION IN QUESTION, WHICH IS CURRENTLY A HOTEL THAT IS, UM, LOOKING TO BE REZONED AS A, UH, LOW INCOME FAMILY, UH, RESIDENTIAL AREA IS, UM, NOT, UH, AT ALL, UH, CONDUCIVE TO HOUSE ANY FAMILIES. MUCH LESS LONG TERM STATE HOTEL, WHICH ATTRACTS LOW INCOME PEOPLE. UH, THESE ARE STATS THAT CAN BE FOUND ON THROUGH THE SAPD WEBSITE. UM, AND IN NO GOOD CONSCIENCE CAN THE CITY THINK THAT THIS IS A GOOD LOCATION TO HOUSE FAMILIES, UM, ESPECIALLY EXPOSED CHILDREN UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. MY NAME IS PATTY GIBBONS. I LIVE AT 1 1 6 1 8 SANDMAN, UH, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 1 6 IN THE HARMONY HILLS AREA. AND I'M CALLING IN OPPOSITION TO THE CASE Z 20 25 1 0 7 0 6 3. I'M THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE GREATER HARMONY HILLS NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. WE WERE IN RECENT DISCUSSIONS AND PLANNING SESSIONS WITH THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT FOR OVER A YEAR CONCERNING OUR AREA, NOT ONLY OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, GREATER HARMONY HILLS, WHICH IS ADJACENT TO THIS PROPERTY, BUT ALSO THE BEACON HILL BUSINESS PARK. I'M ALSO AN OWNER OF A BUILDING IN THE BUSINESS HILL. I OPPOSE THE PROJECT. IT IS COMPLETELY WITHOUT ANY DOUBT WITH ANYONE THAT LOOKS AT THIS EVEN STAFF, THAT THIS IS TOTALLY OUT OF THE NORM FOR THIS AREA. THE BUSINESS PARK IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US. IT IS A BUFFER FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE MANY OF US WHO OWN A BUSINESS OWN THE BUILDING AS WELL AND LIVE IN HARMONY HILLS. THAT THAT IS THE SETUP, HOW IT WAS BUILT IN 1959 BUSINESS PARK AND THEN YOU LIVE IN YOUR HOUSE RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO IT. BUT TO BUILD A APARTMENT COMPLEX LIKE THEY'RE DECIDING, THEY'RE THINKING THEY CAN DO, IS TOTALLY OUT OF THE NORM. YOU WOULD BE ABUTTING VERY HEAVY EQUIPMENT, SMELLS, NOISE. I'VE GONE BEHIND THERE. THERE TENDS TO BE SOME ISSUES WITH CRIME THAT WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE. YOU HAVE AN ADULT COMPLEX JUST IN WALKING DISTANCE. IT IS NOT CONDUCIVE TO ANYONE LIVING THERE OR ANY FAMILY LIVING THERE. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME IN SERVING ON THE ZONING BOARD. I'M A FORMER ZONING COMMISSIONER AS MYSELF. WE'VE HAD SEVERAL CASES IN THIS BUSINESS PARK AND TEND TO ALWAYS BE DENIED SO THAT THIS BUSINESS PARK IS PRESERVED FOR WHAT THE PURPOSE IS. THE I ONES AND THE HIGH C THREES AND THOSE WHO OWN BUSINESSES, WHO OWN THE BUILDINGS ALSO OWN THEIR BUSINESS THERE. IT'S VERY, VERY, UH, PROTECTIVE OF THAT. THIS IS PATTY SPAN. I LIVE AT 1 1 5 1 5 CIARA COURT, SAN ANTONIO HARMONY HILLS 7 8 2 1 6. MY NUMBER IS 2 1 0 2 8 4 14 92 AND I'M CALLING REGARDING THE CASE NUMBER ENDING IN 0 0 6 3 IN OPPOSITION. UM, IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT ZONING WOULD THINK ABOUT REWRITING STANDARDS, UH, FOR UNDERPRIVILEGED PEOPLE TO LIVE IN AN INDUSTRIAL AREA WITH NO RESIDENTIAL ACCOMMODATIONS AND HAVE INDUSTRY TRY TO WORK AROUND RESIDENTIAL. THIS IS A LOSE LOSE SITUATION AND I AM IN OPPOSITION. THANK YOU. THIS MESSAGE IS FOR SAMANTHA BENAVIDES REGARDING ZONING CASE NUMBER Z DASH 2 2 5 1 0 7 0 0 0 6 3 FOR THE REZONING OF THE MOTEL SIX EXTENDED STAY LOCATED AT 1 1 2 2 1 SAN PEDRO AVENUE, SAN ANTONIO. I'M BOB KERR AND MY WIFE CINDY. AND I LIVE AT 6 0 6 PRINCE DRIVE IN SAN ANTONIO. UH, MY NUMBER IS TWO TEN TWO FOUR FOUR THREE TWO SEVEN SIX. WE OWN TWO COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES AT 1 35 AND 1 38. BRAD AND THE BUSINESS PARK JUST WEST OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. AND WE FEEL THIS IS AN EXTREMELY POOR LOCATION FOR A HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS. ONE, THIS DEVELOPMENT IS SURROUNDED BY LIGHT INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS ON THREE SIDES WITH THE AIRPORT RUNWAY APPROACH TO THE NORTH AND IS FRONTED BY US 2 81 SURROUNDED LIKE THIS. HOW ARE RESIDENTS OF THIS DEVELOPMENT SUPPOSED TO BLEND INTO THE COMMUNITY? [00:45:01] TWO ACROSS US, 2 81 SITS THE ENTIRE SAN ANTONIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT COMPLEX AND ANOTHER LIGHT INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL SUBDIVISION. YOU'RE NOT GONNA BUILD ANY COMMUNITY OVER THERE. THREE DUE TO ITS LOCATION WITHIN A BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT. THIS SITE IS SUBJECT IS SUBJECT TO CONTINUOUS HEAVY COMMERCIAL VEHICULAR TRAFFIC, WHICH PRESENTS AN UNSAFE AND UNDESIRABLE SITUATION FOR ANY RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY. FOUR. NOISE FROM AIR TRAFFIC ASIDE FROM ROAD NOISE IS SIGNIFICANT AND CONSTANT. THAT'S NOT GOOD FOR ANYBODY. FIVE. THERE IS NO GREEN SPACE IN THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT OTHER THAN A SMALL COURTYARD. AND THE NEAREST POINT OF RECREATION IS WALKER RANCH PARK ON WEST AVENUE OF. ALL RIGHT, THAT IS IT FOR THE VOICEMAILS. AND NOW WE'LL MOVE ON TO SPEAKERS. UM, FIRST WE HAVE MR. SAM MENDEZ AND HE IS TO BE FOLLOWED BY MONTGOMERY HOWARD. ALRIGHT, MR. MENDEZ, IF YOU WOULD PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD. THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE. UH, MY NAME IS SAM MENDEZ AND I LIVE AT 11 7 14 RAINDROP DRIVE. UM, I SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THE PROJECT. UM, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I'M EVEN HEARING THAT SOMEONE IS CONSIDERING REMODELING THAT MOTEL SIX, WHICH IS FAILING, UH, AND THE, AND THE IT'S BUSINESS MODEL AS IT IS NOW. AND THEY'RE JUST THINKING ABOUT GOING IN, REMODELING IT AND TURNING IT INTO LITTLE BITTY BOXES OF, UM, APARTMENTS FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE STRUGGLING TO GET 'EM STARTED. 2 81 IN FRONT OF YOU. ALL THAT NOISE AIRPORT BOUNDARY, ABOUT A HUNDRED YARDS FROM, FROM YOU TO THE OTHER SIDE. PLUS THE AIRLINES, UH, OVERHEAD ALL THE TIME, DAY AND NIGHT. UH, WE GOT LUCKY THAT WHEN, UH, THE AIRPORT BOARD CAME AROUND AND SAID, HEY, WE'VE GOT WINDOWS AND DOORS FOR YOU SO YOU DON'T HEAR OUR PLANES. THAT PROJECT IS SINCE BEEN CLOSED. CONGRESS ISN'T FUNDING IT ANYMORE, SO THEY'RE NOT GONNA HAVE THE ADVANTAGE OF HAVING THEIR HOMES QUIET. UH, THERE'S NO RECREATION, THERE'S NO GROCERY. THE CLOSEST THING TO A GROCERY IS THE, THE STOP AND ROB AT THE CORNER. IT'S A, IT'S, THERE'S NOTHING THERE. UH, HEB IS OVER A MILE AWAY. THERE IS A BUS LINE, I GUESS IF YOU LIKE SITTING ON THE BUS FOR OVER AN HOUR TO GET ANYWHERE, THAT'D BE GREAT. UM, THERE'S, UM, INDUSTRIAL AND THAT'S BEEN MENTIONED BY EVERYONE ELSE. YOU'VE GOT INDUSTRIAL ON THREE SIDES. YOU'VE GOT THE FREEWAY IN FRONT OF YOU, WHERE ARE YOUR KIDS GONNA PLAY? OKAY, THEY'VE GOT THAT LITTLE GREEN SPACE. MAYBE YOU COULD TAKE YOUR POCKET FULL OF MARBLES AND GO PITCH A FEW MARBLES. UH, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, THERE'S NOTHING THERE. THE SCHOOL IS NOT FAR ENOUGH AWAY FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO SUPPLY A BUS RIDE, SO THE KIDS ARE GONNA HAVE TO BE TAKEN THERE BY THE PARENTS OR WALK. I WOULDN'T WANNA BE WALKING THROUGH THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. UM, THIS, THIS PROJECT KIND OF REMINDS ME OF, UH, THE DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO, CABRINI GREEN. AND IF YOU'VE EVER HEARD OF CABRINI GREEN, YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO BE NEAR IT IN IT ANYWHERE. AND THIS SORT OF REMINDS YOU OF THAT KIND OF A DEVELOPMENT. I WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE THERE. ALRIGHT, WOULD YOU WANNA LIVE THERE? THANK YOU SO MUCH MR. MENDEZ. THANK YOU. THAT'S YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. WE HAVE MONTGOMERY HOWARD AND HE IS TO BE FOLLOWED BY MARIELLA, PAULA FERRY. GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS MONTGOMERY HOWARD. I LIVE AT 1 4 1 0 GRAY OAK IN SAN ANTONIO. UM, I AM HERE AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT THIS PROJECT. I AM, HOWEVER, AN ARCHITECT I'VE BEEN BEFORE THIS COMMISSION BEFORE FOR PROJECTS AS WELL AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN. UM, I ALSO SIT ON THE BOARD OF THE GREATER HARMONY HILLS NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, BUT I AM NOT HERE SPEAKING ON THEIR BEHALF RIGHT NOW. UH, WHAT I WILL SAY IS YOU HAVE HEARD FROM A LOT OF THE MEMBERS ALREADY ON THE VOICEMAIL, SO YOU CAN GET AN AN IDEA OF, OF WHAT OUR MEMBERSHIP SENSE IS AND THE COMMUNITY IS THERE. I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO SOME OF THE REGULATORY ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. UH, ITEM NUMBER ZERO, UH, SIX THREE. I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T MENTION THAT. UM, THE EXISTING USE ON THE PROPERTY IS AN INCONSISTENT USE, A NON-CONFORMING USE WITH CURRENT ZONING THAT'S OVERLAID ON IT ACCORDING TO MY, MY UNDERSTANDING AND READING OF THE ZONING, UH, ORDINANCE. THE PROPOSED USE CHANGE IN USE IS A NON-CONFORMING USE ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT ZONING ON THE PROPERTY TOO. UH, THE CURRENT ZONING ON THE PROPERTY HAS BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE ORIGINAL USE OF THE BUILDING RIGHT NOW WAS CONFORMING WITH OLD ZONING THAT WAS ON IT, BUT IT'S HIGHLY INCONSISTENT WITH THE NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES AROUND IT. I THINK YOU'VE HEARD A LOT OF COMMENT ON THAT AS WELL. UM, WE HAVE AS, AS [00:50:01] A BOARD MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATION, I HAVE HEARD PRESENTATIONS BY, BY THE DEVELOPER AND THEIR REPRESENTATIVES AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD, AT LEAST IN MY OPINION, A COMPELLING CASE TO MAKE THIS CHANGE THAT WOULD BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY THAT IMMEDIATELY SURROUNDING THE BUILDING OR IN THE AREA AS WELL. UM, THE CITY SPENT A LOT OF TIME DEVELOPING THE POLICIES THAT ESTABLISHED THE ZONING THAT'S ON, ON THE BOOKS RIGHT NOW FOR THIS. AND WE BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD BE CONSISTENT TO LEAD THE ZONING THE WAY IT IS MOVING INTO THE FUTURE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU MR. HOWARD. NEXT WE HAVE MARIELLA PALFERY. HI MARCELA PALFERY AND I'M GONNA REFRAIN. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU. ALRIGHT, AND THAT IS ITEM SIGNED UP FOR ITEM 24. WE ARE NOW GOING TO HEAR ITEMS FOR NUMBER 14. UM, MS. BETTY ECKERT, I HAVE YOU SIGNED UP TO SPEAK FOR ITEM 14 NOW? YES MA'AM. I HAVE THE MICROPHONE HERE FOR YOU SO YOU, SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET UP. GOOD MORNING. I'M BETTY ECKARD AND I AM CHAIRMAN, CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ELMA PARK PARISH NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. I AM ALSO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE NORTH CENTRAL COMMUNITY PLAN AND WE ARE IN OPPOSITION. I'M SORRY, I WAS SPEAKING. ARE YOU DONE? SO I WAS SPEAKING, YEAH, OUT I WAS SPEAKING. SHE'S SHE'S GETTING A FEEDBACK LOOP. NO, SHE'S HEARING HERSELF OR SHE'S HEARING HERSELF DELAYED. OKAY. DELAYED. WHEN YOU ALL START SPEAKING, WE'LL PUT IT OR WHEN SHE'S DONE, I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO GET UP. WELL, I WILL. LET ME GO OFF THE MICROPHONE BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT I MADE THE EFFORT. COME HERE, BRING IT DOWN. I'M FOR THANK YOU ALEXA, BECAUSE THIS IS ABOVE AND BEYOND AND I WANNA SEE THE BOARD WHO THEY ARE. I AM BETTY ECKARD AND I AM CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF THE ALMOND PARK TERRACE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. I'M ALSO THE CHAIRMAN TO THE NORTH CENTRAL COMMUNITY PLANT AND WE ARE IN OPPOSITION OF ZONING GOING AT 3 0 6 HERME FIRST. THE LOCATION IS WRONG THERE, THERE WILL BE TRAFFIC. THERE'S, IT'S THE THIRD HOUSE OFF OF SAN PEDRO. WE'RE GETTING READY TO PUT IN A, UH, VR TRANSIT LINE ON SAN PEDRO. SO THERE WOULD BE NO ONE TO BE ABLE TO TURN INTO THIS STREET ANYWAY. BUT NEVERTHELESS, WE DON'T WANT THE ZONING APPROVED BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT IT ALL, ALL OVER OUR NEIGHBORHOODS TO HAVE BUSINESSES. THE NEIGHBORHOOD, ALTHOUGH NOTICES WERE SENT OUT TO 300 PEOPLE, IS IN THE TRANSITION OF HAVING A NEW PRESIDENT FOR THEIR ASSOCIATION. SO NO PUBLIC MEETING WAS HELD WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AT ALL. NORTHMORE HAD NO MEETING. SAN ANTONIO HAD NO MEETING, NO PUBLIC MEETING FROM OUR DISTRICT. WE DID REQUEST ONE. THERE WAS NO MEETING. SO THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT IS A RESIDENTIAL AREA OF GREAT HOMES. I HAVE LIVED IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD NOW FOR 64 YEARS IN AL ALMOST PARK TERRACE. PRIOR TO THAT, BEFORE THAT TIME, AS A YOUNG PERSON, I LIVED IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD AND IT WAS A DAIRY FARM. THE HOUSING WAS BUILT IN ABOUT 1944 AND THEY WERE BUILT FOR THE PEOPLE COMING BACK FROM SERVICE OR HIGHLY RECOMMENDING THAT THE APPLICANT AND THIS COMMISSION POSTPONE THIS UNTIL AT LEAST THE PEOPLE KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD BEFORE WE VOTE ON SOMETHING. I AM WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT CITY COUNCIL WILL VOTE ON THIS MAY 1ST. SO NO, NO ONE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THERE'S NO TIME. IT'S UNFAIR TO OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND I DON'T WANT MY IT TO BE UNFAIR TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD. SO I'M ASKING IF THIS COMMISSION AND THE APPLICANT POSTPONE THIS. LET US, LET US AT LEAST HAVE A MEETING. LET US UNDERSTAND. AND, AND I KNOW THAT YOU DON'T TALK ABOUT TAXES. THANK YOU MS. BUT THIS CHANGES ALL THE TAXES AND I ALREADY KNOW THAT. ALRIGHT. I ALREADY KNOW WHAT GOES ON THERE. THANK YOU MS. ECKER. THANK YOU. YOU YOU'RE VERY WELCOME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. [00:55:02] ALRIGHT, STAFF, ANY FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT? UM, MR. GONZALEZ HAD SIGNED UP. DID YOU WANNA STILL SPEAK, SIR? UH, YES.

UM, SPEAKING ON ITEM 14, UH, I DID A, A SITE VISIT WITH, UH, BETTY ECKERT. AND, UH, THE ANOTHER ISSUE WITH THERE'S, UH, SEVERAL IRREGULARITIES WITH THIS PROPERTY. ANYWAY, APPARENTLY THERE'S NEW CONSTRUCTION. UH, BETTY DID CALL IN, UH, TO THE CITY TO FIND OUT IF PERMITS HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR THAT CONSTRUCTION. IF YOU LOOKED AT A PHOTOGRAPH AND SHE HAS PHOTOS OF THE PROPERTY, UH, AT THE ENTRANCE, THERE ARE TWO NEW CONCRETE STEPS, UH, AND THERE'S ALSO A DRIVEWAY THAT'S BEEN WIDENED, DOUBLED IN SIZE. UH, WHEN WE CHECKED WITH THE CITY, UH, THEY, UH, VERIFIED THAT NO, UH, PERMITS HAD BEEN PULLED FOR THAT WORK. UH, AND WORK WAS ONGOING. WE COULD SEE THAT THERE WAS A TRUCK PRESENT. THEY WERE REFURBISHING THE INTERIOR OF THE PROPERTY. THE, THE DOOR WAS OPEN SO WE CAN LOOK INSIDE. UM, UH, BEYOND THAT, YES, I, I'LL, UH, VERIFY, UH, FOR THE RECORDS AS WELL THAT, UH, THIS IS A PROPERTY THAT SITS WITH A, UH, REGULAR RESIDENCE RIGHT NEXT DOOR ADJOINING ON EITHER SIDE OF THE PROPERTY. UM, CONCERNS THAT THE, UH, IF, IF THERE IS, UH, AN APPROVAL FOR A CHANGE FOR A, UM, UH, USE OF, UH, PROPERTY FOR A BUSINESS OFFICE, UH, THAT SINCE THEY DIDN'T ABIDE BY THE, UH, REGULAR PROCESS FOR OBTAINING PERMITS THAT THEY WOULD LIKELY NOT ABIDE BY REGULATIONS ON, UH, OFFICE USE. AND THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, IT WOULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE, UH, THE NEIGHBORS, UH, SURROUNDING THIS, UH, OFFICE OR PROPOSED OFFICE. SO I DO, UH, REQUEST THAT, UH, THIS, UH, CHANGE IN ZONING BE, UH, DENIED. AND, UH, THAT'S ALL. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH MR. GONZALEZ. ANY FURTHER PUBLIC COMMENT? THAT IS IT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.

RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR A NON-COMMERCIAL PARKING LOT WITH ALL OVERLAYS STAYING THE SAME. THERE WERE 31 NOTICES MAILED OUT. ZERO IN FAVOR. ZERO OPPOSED DELL VIEW AREA NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION AND SAN ANTONIO DISTRICT ONE RESIDENCE ASSOCIATION GAVE NO RESPONSE. THE PROPOSED R FIVE CD FOR NON-COMMERCIAL PARKING LOT IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA. SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE ZONED R FIVE, R FOUR, R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT'S C ONE CD LIKE COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR AUTO REPAIR FACILITY AND C TWO PCD COMMERCIAL PEDESTRIAN DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR LARGE SCALE PRINTER. THE EXISTING R FIVE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY IN THE SURROUNDING AREA. EVEN THOUGH THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WOULD RETAIN A RESIDENTIAL BASE ZONE, ADDING THE CD CONDITIONAL USE FOR A NON-COMMERCIAL PARKING LOT WOULD CREATE A PRECEDENT FOR FUTURE COMMERCIAL ENCROACHMENT WITHIN AN ESTABLISHED RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.

IT'S JUST A PARKING LOT AND IT'S, UH, THE TAQUITOS WEST IS, UM, I BELIEVE, UH, IS COM IS COMMIT TO APPLY PAVEMENT ON THE ALLEY THAT IS BEHIND ALL THE ALLEY, COMPLETE ALLEY AND LIGHTING ILLUMINATION TO THE ALLEY TO REINFORCE, UM, THE SAFETY AND WELLBEING WITH THE COMMUNITY.

YES. UH, THE NEIGHBORS ARE A LITTLE BIT MAD ABOUT TAQUITOS WEST, TO BE HONEST. UM, THEY LOVE THE FOOD , BUT, BUT YEAH, THE, THEY, THEY SAID THAT WILL BE AN ENCROACHMENT, BUT I DON'T SEE THE ENCROACHMENT BECAUSE IT'S, IT IS GONNA BE RESIDENCE.

UH, UH, QUESTION FOR STAFF, UM, EVEN THOUGH IT'S ZONED RESIDENTIAL, IS THAT WHAT DETERMINES WHETHER HE CAN EXIT ONTO THE ALLEY? UM, OR IF IT'S A COMMERCIAL USE, WOULD THAT THEN PROHIBIT THEN ACCESS ONTO THE ALLEY? IT, IT'S KEEPING THE RESIDENTIAL BASE, SO THEY'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PERSPECTIVE, BUT BECAUSE IT HAS THE CONDITIONAL USE FOR A COMMERCIAL ACTIVITY, THEY WILL, UH, MAKE THAT DETERMINATION ONCE HE SUBMITS HIS PERMITTING. OKAY. AND SO THEN WHEN, UM, DO YOU KNOW, IS THE ALLEY PAVED AT THIS TIME OR WILL IT BE REQUIRED TO BE PAVED? IT DOESN'T LOOK PAVED AT THIS MOMENT, UM, BUT IT WOULD BE A REQUIREMENT IF THEY ARE ALLOWED TO ACCESS. OKAY. BUT PROBABLY ONLY TO THE, TO THE MAJOR ROAD. IT WOULDN'T BE THE ENTIRE CORRECT ALLEY, IT WOULD ONLY BE UP UNTIL THEIR SECTION. OKAY. ALRIGHT. I THINK THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE. THANK YOU.

UH, I BELIEVE IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE, UH, HIGHER THAN SIX, SIX FOOT. UH, AND IT'S JUST FOR, TO, TO PROTECT THE RESIDENTIAL SITE.

UH, IS THERE IS, IF THERE IS SOME KIND OF, UH, CHANGES ON THE SITE PLAN, WE CAN, WE CAN DO THOSE, YOU KNOW, IF TRAFFIC REQUIRES TO DO SOME CHANGES, WE WILL DO IT FOR SURE. NO, THAT'S GOOD. UH, WHAT WE HAVE, WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS JUST TO, TO HAVE AT LEAST 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 MORE CARS, RIGHT? BECAUSE IT'S SO, SO, UH, IT'S TIGHT, CROWDED TIGHT. IT'S TIGHT. YES. JUST A RECOMMENDATION. IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT, BUT IF YOU COULD SHOW THAT DISTANCE, THAT COULD CLEAR UP A LOT OF QUESTIONS ON THE SAME PART. BEAUTIFULLY PART. YEAH. THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE. THANKS. THANK YOU.

WE DON'T NEED TO HAVE A HIGH PERFORMANCE FACILITATOR TO ADD TO THIS, TO, TO THE CONGESTION ON I 10. WE ALSO DON'T NEED THE ADDED NOISE. UM, I I, I, I REQUEST THAT THAT, THAT YOU DON'T APPROVE THIS, THE CD PORTION. IT'S, IT'S A DETRIMENT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S A DETRIMENT TO THE WHOLE AREA. THERE'S, THERE'S PLENTY OF OTHER AREAS WHERE C3 IS AVAILABLE THAT HE COULD MOVE TO. I KNOW WE'VE HAD SOME, SOME MEETINGS, ZOOM MEETINGS WITH HIM IN HIS LAST ZOOM, ZOOM MEETING.

NEXT WE HAVE MR. ROB MCDANIEL TO BE FOLLOWED BY JACQUES BENATAR. GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME'S ROB MCDANIEL. I'M THE GENERAL MANAGER FOR THE DOMINION HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION.

AND THEN JACQUES TO BE FOLLOWED BY ROBERTO, ARE YOU GIVING YOUR TIME TO HIM? OKAY. SO JACQUES, YOU'LL HAVE FOUR MINUTES. THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE. MY NAME IS JACQUES BENATAR AND, UH, OUR OFFICE, I'M HERE REPRESENT REPRESENTING THE DEVELOPERS, OWNERS AND TENANTS OF THE SOUTH NEIGHBORING DOMINION PLACE OFFICE PARK LOCATED AT 2 3 1 1 9 AND 2 3 1 0 3 WEST INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 10. THESE FOLKS MAKE UP OVER 22 OWNERS AND TENANTS. DOMINION PLACE [01:35:01] IS FOR A HIGH-END OFFICE USE AND THE PROPOSED CHANGE ALLOWING FOR GARAGES TO SERVICE ORDER AND TRACK HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLES AS WELL AS MOTORCYCLES AND ATVS IS NOT IN ALIGNMENT WITH THE INTENDED CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT. OUR DOMINION PLACE OFFICE PARK HAS BEEN CAREFULLY PLANNED FOR PROFESSIONAL OFFICE SPACE, WHICH ATTRACTS BUSINESSES THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE LONG-TERM ECONOMIC GROWTH AND STABILITY OF OUR COMMUNITY. EXAMPLES OF ESTABLISHED BUSINESSES INCLUDE DOCTORS, LAWYERS, ARCHITECTS, AND OTHER SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS. IT IS OUR OPINION THAT ALLOWING AN ORDER REPAIR AND HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLE SERVICE CENTER NEXT DOOR THREATENS TO DISRUPT THAT BALANCE WHILE ALSO INTRODUCING NOISE FUMES AND INCREASED INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY THAT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR A HIGH END OFFICE ENVIRONMENT. FOR THIS REASONS, WE RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT THE ZONING BOARD REJECTS THIS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND UPHOLDS THE EXISTING ZONING DESIGNATION THAT PROTECTS THE CHARACTER VALUE AND FUTURE OF OUR OFFICE PARK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU MR. BONTA. AND THAT IS IT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT. ALL RIGHT, MS. ELDA, BRIEF REBUTTAL. YES.

UM, SO IN RESULT, UH, IN THE MEETING THAT WE DID HAVE, UM, WE UNFORTUNATELY HAVE, UM, HAD NOT HAVE NOT COME TO A, A COMPLETE AGREEMENT, UM, WITH THE OPPOSING. HOWEVER, WE DID, UM, UH, HOST THE MEETING AND WALKED THROUGH THE INTENTIONS ACTUALLY A LITTLE FURTHER IN DETAIL OF WHAT THE PLANS ARE FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT. AND, UM, WE NOT ONLY SHARED, UM, THE PRESENTATION THAT Y Y'ALL ARE SEEING HERE, UM, WITH THE GENTLEMEN THAT ARE HERE TODAY, BUT IT'S ALSO WE'VE EXTENDED OUR, UM, WE'VE EXTENDED THE INVITE, UH, TOWARD THE OTHER OPPOSITIONS THAT WE'VE RECEIVED REGARDING THIS CASE.

UM, HOWEVER, BASED ON OUR DISCUSSIONS, UM, WE'VE SHARED THAT, UM, AT LEAST THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS SHARED WHAT HIS INTENTIONS ARE. UH, AS DISCUSSED, WE WOULD LIKE TO, UM, PROPOSE THIS CONDITIONAL USE TO ALLOW FOR MODIFICATIONS AND UM, UH, AND, AND A SPACE TO ALLOW FOR, UH, CLIENTELE WITH VERY EXPENSIVE VEHICLES OR HIGH, HIGH END CARS, UH, TO MAKE MODIFICATIONS SUCH AS UPHOLSTERY, UM, UH, IN THESE, IN THIS GARAGE AND IN THIS SPACE HERE.

CAN YOU DESCRIBE ALL THE NOISE THAT YOU'RE GONNA BE GENERATING THAT'S ABOVE AND BEYOND MM-HMM . COMMERCIAL? I WOULD BE HAPPY TO, I WOULD ACTUALLY LIKE, UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER TO SPEAK ON IT BECAUSE AS MENTIONED, HE DOES HAVE ALREADY AN EXISTING GARAGE UP IN ODESSA, AND SO I'M, UM, FROM HIS EXPERIENCE, I'M THINKING HE CAN SPEAK A LITTLE BIT ON IT. WELL, YOU CAN JUST TELL ME, IS IT EXTRAORDINARY? IS IT JUST EXCESSIVE? NOTHING EXCESSIVE OUTSIDE OF ANY, UM, STANDARD VEHICULAR GARAGE. AND AS MENTIONED, WE DO HAVE SIMILAR USES WITHIN THE AREA, WITHIN 0.3 0.1 MILES OF OUR PROPERTY. NOTHING THAT WOULD EXCEED WHAT'S ALREADY BEING PRODUCED. OKAY. ACCESS, THAT'S AN EXISTING DRIVEWAY.

AND HE AGREED TO IT BECAUSE AS, AS WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING, NO ALCOHOL SALES ARE PROPOSED. THANK YOU. COMMISSIONER CHASE. COMMISSIONER, WHAT'S UP? I HAVE A QUESTION THAT MAYBE THE APPLICANT OR MAYBE THE OPPOSITION KNOWS THERE'S LAND BEHIND IT THAT'S OWNED R SIX AND IT LOOKS LIKE ONE OWNER OWNS THAT ALL THE WAY OVER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF 10 AND THEN BACK OUT TO SEATTLE VISTA, I THINK. YES. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT THEY PLAN TO DO OR, UM, AS FAR AS THE R SIX ZONE PROPERTY, NO. HOWEVER, I DO WANNA MENTION THAT EVEN YOU CAN EVEN, UH, SEE IT A LITTLE BIT ON THE SITE PLAN THAT WE HAVE UP THERE IS A LARGE AMOUNT OF TREES THAT KIND OF ABUT THIS, UM, WESTERN PROPERTY BOUNDARY. UM, IN ADDITION TO THE TREES, WE THERE, UM, IS A BIG CHANGE IN ELEVATION. UM, JUST REALLY STARTING FROM THE IH 10 ACCESS TO THIS WESTERN PROPERTY BOUNDARY. AND WHAT THE PROPERTY OWNER INTENDS TO DO IS TO MAINTAIN THAT BUFFER AS WELL AS NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT'S COST EFFECTIVE, 'CAUSE CUTTING INTO THAT ROCK, IT CAN BE OF GREAT IMPACT, BUT WE WANT TO MAINTAIN THAT BUFFER NOT ONLY TO FOLLOW THE, UM, SETBACKS THAT ARE REQUIRED, BUT, UM, BECAUSE AGAIN, FOR THE COST EFFECTIVE REASONS THAT WE DON'T WANNA DEMO ALL THOSE TREES OR CUT DOWN THAT ROCK. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? LOOKING TO MY LEFT? YES. COMMISSIONER SIPES, I, I THINK THIS MIGHT BE A QUESTION FOR, UH, FOR STAFF REGARDING HOURS OF OPERATION. ARE THOSE ARE HOURS OF OPERATION, UM, ONLY APPLICABLE TO THE NEW USES OR WOULD THOSE BE APPLICABLE TO ALL USES? AND THE ONLY REASON I BRING THAT UP IS BECAUSE WE HAD A CASE EARLIER WHERE IT WAS LIKE THE HOURS OPERATION WERE ONLY GONNA BE FOR THE CONDITIONAL USE THAT OTHER USES WOULD BE MM-HMM . UNLIMITED. IF THERE WAS A CONDITION ADDED TO THE, THE PLAN, IT WOULD ONLY BE FOR THE CONDITIONAL USE, WHICH IS THE AUTO REPAIR. OKAY. SO, SO THOSE HOURS OF OPERATION THEN WOULD NOT BE, IF THAT WOULD NOT AFFECT THE OTHER C TWO USES, THEN IF CORRECT, IF THEY HAD ANY OTHER C TWO USES, THEY WOULD NOT BE ENFORCED FOR THOSE. OKAY. SO IF, IF WE'RE MOVING FIVE USES DOWN, OR, OR, OR, WELL LET ME, LEMME REPHRASE. THE PROPOSAL WAS TO MOVE A COUPLE MORE AUTO USES INTO THE, INTO THIS USE. WOULD THE REMAINING AUTO USES THAT ARE ALREADY PR UH, ALLOWED IN C TWO THEN BE SUBJECT TO THOSE HOURS OF OPERATION? NO. UM, THE ONES THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, LIKE THE AUTO LUBE, UM, OR THE TIRE REPAIR, WHICH ARE PERMITTED BY RIGHT IN A C TWO, THEY WOULD NOT BE SUBJECT TO THOSE HOURS. BUT IF THEY DO GO INTO THE FULL BLOWN AUTO REPAIR WITH MECHANICAL WORK, ELECTRICAL WORK AND ALL THAT, THAT'S WHERE THE, THAT'S WHERE THE CONDITION USE. SO THE NOISIER, THE NOISIER USES THEN WOULD BE IMPACTED PERHAPS BY THE, I'M NOT THE SUBJECT MATTER ON THAT. OKAY. I'M JUST, I'M JUST, I'M JUST TRYING TO WORK IT THROUGH. ALRIGHT. UM, I, I'LL JUST ADD REALLY QUICKLY THAT, UH, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF, OF OTHER USES THAT ARE ALLOWED BY, RIGHT IN C TWO, LIKE A LIQUOR STORE THAT COULD STAY OPEN TILL NINE O'CLOCK. UM, CHURCHES ARE ALLOWED CONDOS. UM, SO THEY WOULD HAVE LIKE 30 UNITS POTENTIALLY DRY CLEANING, LAUNDRY, PLANT GYMNASIUM, CONVENIENCE STORE, SCHOOL, HOBBY STORE, CHARITABLE FOOD BANK, DAYCARE, RESTAURANT. NO, I, I UNDERSTAND. I WAS JUST TRYING TO BECOME MORE INFORMED, I GUESS ON, ON EXACTLY WHAT THE IMPACT THAT HOURS OF OPERATION WOULD HAVE. ALRIGHT, THANKS. THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE. ALRIGHT. LAST CALL FOR QUESTIONS LEFT RIGHT. ALRIGHT, AGAIN, THIS IS A DISTRICT EIGHT CASE. MS. ALVA, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU. UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT EIGHT CASE, UH, COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ TO YOU FOR DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION. WELL, THANK YOU CHAIRMAN AND NO THANK YOU CHAIRMAN, UH, , THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT CASE AS EVERYONE IS WELL AWARE. UH, I WANNA THANK EVERYONE INVOLVED. I WANNA THANK CITY STAFF FOR THEIR HARD WORK AND OF COURSE THE OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION THAT WE SAW HERE TODAY. UH, [01:50:01] THIS IS THE THIRD SETTING OF THIS CASE. UH, THIS WAS CONTINUED FROM THE LAST SETTING IN THE HOPE THAT, UH, THERE COULD BE A MEETING IN THE MINES. UH, A MEETING THAT WAS HOSTED, UH, BY WGI WHERE THE OPPOSITION ATTENDED. I ATTENDED AND, AND, UH, DISCUSSED THE ISSUES THAT, UH, WE'VE HEARD TODAY. UH, THERE WERE A COUPLE OF CONCESSIONS REQUESTED BY THE OPPOSITION THAT WERE, UH, THAT THE APPLICANT WAS NOT AMENABLE TO. ONE WAS THE RESTRICTED HOURS ON THE CONDITIONAL USE, UH, THAT WOULD HOPEFULLY MITIGATE SOME OF THE NOISE. UH, THAT IS A CONCERN FOR THE ADJACENT PROPERTIES. UM, IN ADDITION TO THE, UH, 23 OFFICE SUITES, UH, THE PROFESSIONALS THAT HAVE OFFICES THERE, WE HEARD FROM THE, UH, UH, DOMINION HOA TODAY, UH, THERE WAS ALSO A REQUEST FOR CONCESSION FOR A SOUNDPROOF WALL OR SOME SORT OF, UH, SOUND MITIGATING, UH, EXTERIOR OR INTERIOR. AND THAT WAS, UH, FLATLY REJECTED BY THE APPLICANT. UH, IN ADDITION, DURING THAT MEETING, WE LEARNED THAT THERE ARE C TWO USES, UH, FOR THE APPLICANT'S BUSINESS PLAN THAT DO NOT REQUIRE THE CONDITIONAL USE, UH, APPLICATION OR DO NOT REQUIRE THE REZONING FOR THE CONDITIONAL USE. UM, ULTIMATELY THERE WAS NOT A MEETING OF MINES BETWEEN THE OPPOSITION AND THE APPLICANT. UM, AND AGAIN, THIS IS A DIFFICULT CASE, BUT WHEN WE LOOK AT THE PRINCIPLES OF LAND, LAND USE, WE LOOK AT, UH, CONSISTENCY, CONTINUITY, AND COMMUNITY. AND WE'VE HEARD FROM THE COMMUNITY FOR SURE. UM, YOU KNOW, THE PRIMARY REASON WHY THESE HEARINGS ARE PUBLIC IS BECAUSE THE COMMUNITY INPUT IS VITAL TO WHAT WE DO. IT'S, UH, VITAL TO THE INTEGRITY OF THIS PROCESS. I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO MENTION THAT I DID RECEIVE, UH, FOUR OR FIVE ADDITIONAL LETTERS AND OPPOSITION TO THE PROJECT AND I RECEIVED 23 LETTERS IN FAVOR OF THE PROJECT. UH, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT MANY OF THE, THE LETTERS THAT WERE SENT IN FAVOR OF THE PROJECT WERE OUTSIDE THE DISTRICT AND ONE WAS FROM ODESSA, TEXAS, WHERE THE, UH, PERSON IN FAVOR, UH, OF THE APPLICANT CITED THE ABILITY TO CI TO FIX, UH, 40 TRUCKS THAT SERVICE THE EAGLE FORD SHALE, WHICH I THINK SPEAKS TO THE OPPOSITION AND THE NOISE CONCERN THAT THEY HAVE IN ANY CASE, UH, IN LIGHT OF THE OVERWHELMING OPPOSITION THAT WE HAVE TO THIS REQUESTED CHANGE. UM, AND GIVEN THAT THE PROPERTY WAS PURCHASED AS A C TWO AND THE APPLICANT DOES HAVE A BUSINESS PLAN FOR A C TWO, I WILL MOVE IN FAVOR OF AVOIDING DISRUPTION OF THE CURRENT ZONING AND MOVE FOR DENIAL OF THE APPLICATION. OKAY, THERE IS A MOTION FOR DENIAL OF ITEM NUMBER SIX. IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND THAT. COMMISSIONER BARTOS IS THE SECOND. ALRIGHT. DISCUSSION COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT. YES. COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA. UH, I WAS ON THE FENCE FOR THIS, UH, FOR THIS CASE. IT IS KIND OF A DIFFICULT CASE, HOWEVER, I THINK ONE OF THE BIG THINGS WE, WE LOOK FORWARD TO IS COMMUNITY. THE RESPONSES FROM THE COMMUNITY ARE THE REQUEST. AND WITH HAVING 2000 HOMES, 4,000, 6,000 PEOPLE, UH, STATING TO THEIR HOA THEY DID, THEY DO NOT WANT THIS, UH, WEIGHS HEAVILY AND I WILL BE SUPPORTING THE MOTION. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA. FURTHER DISCUSSION, COMMISSIONER. ON MY RIGHT. ALRIGHT, SEEING NONE COMMISSIONERS ON MY LEFT DISCUSSION. COMMISSIONER WATSON? NO. ALRIGHT. I HAVE A LITTLE DISCUSSION. . UM, YEAH, I THINK THESE ARE TOUGH CASES. UM, ONE THING, UH, YOU KNOW, THAT DOES WEIGH HEAVILY ON ME IS I THINK THERE WERE REASONABLE REQUESTS HERE FOR LIMITATIONS ON THE HOURS. UH, YOU HAVE COME PAID A LOT OF MONEY, I PRESUME, FOR A REQUEST TO CHANGE ZONING. UM, YOU REALLY HAVEN'T INDICATED THAT YOUR HOURS WOULD BE DIFFERENT FROM WHAT WAS REQUESTED, UH, AND THAT WAS ROUNDLY REJECTED AND THAT'S FINE. UM, BUT I THINK IT DOES STRONGLY INDICATE THAT I'M GOING TO BE MORE HESITANT TO APPROVE A REQUEST AT THAT TIME. UM, AND SO FOR THAT REASON AND FOR THE REASONS POINTED OUT BY COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ, I TOO WILL BE SUPPORTING THE MOTION. UH, I THINK YOU ARE WELL SERVED BY, UM, THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE. UH, BUT I'VE GOTTA SAY WHEN YOU KNOW, THERE'S A REQUEST AND THERE'S I THINK A REASONABLE COMPROMISE FOR HOURS, IT STICKS IN MY CRAWL WHEN [01:55:01] IT'S COMPLETELY REJECTED. SO THAT BEING SAID, THE MOTION IS FOR DENIAL OF ITEM NUMBER SIX BY COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER. LES ROLL CALL VOTE PLEASE. COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ? YES. COMMISSIONER BARROS? YES. COMMISSIONER KELLUM? YES. COMMISSIONER WATSON? YES. COMMISSIONER NOOSA? YES. COMMISSIONER REYES? YES. COMMISSIONER HUEY. AYE. COMMISSIONER SIPES? YES. COMMISSIONER WIT? YES. COMMISSIONER CHASE? NO. CHAIR BUSANTE. AYE. MOTION CARRIES. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN. THIS IS A RECOMMENDING BOTTLE. , I AM NOT SPEAKING WELL TODAY. THIS IS A RECOMMENDING BODY, UH, YOU'LL BE MOVING ON TO CITY COUNCIL. THANK YOU SO MUCH. UH, I'M GONNA PUT THIS TO COMMISSIONERS. THIS IS TRADITIONALLY A TIME WE TAKE A BREAK. BREAK. LET'S SAY BREAK. I GET ONE VOTE IN FAVOR. ALRIGHT, THE TIME IS 3 0 1. UH, WE WILL STAND IN RECESS FOR APPROXIMATELY FIVE MINUTES. THANK YOU SO MUCH DURING THIS COMMISSION. NEVER. ALRIGHT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE TIME IS 3 0 9. THIS MEETING OF THE ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO IS BACK IN SESSION AND WE ARE MOVING ON TO UH, CASE NUMBER 23. GOOD AFTERNOON. AND HEATHER GOMEZ ZONING SENIOR PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. ITEM NUMBER 23 IS LOCATED AT 3 2 0 EAST CARSON STREET GOING FROM RM FIVE RESIDENTIAL MIXED DISTRICT TO MF 18 LIMITED DENSITY MULTIFAMILY DISTRICT. THERE WERE 35 NOTICES SENT OUT. ZERO IN FAVOR, ZERO OPPOSED. THE GOVERNMENT HILL ALLIANCE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION DID NOT PROVIDE A RESPONSE. STAFF HAS NOT FOUND AN INDICATION OF LIKELY ADVERSE EFFECTS OF ON THE PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY OR WELFARE. THE EXISTING RM FIVE RESIDENTIAL MIXED USE DISTRICT IS INAPPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA. THE PROPOSED MF 18 LIMITED DENSITY MULTIFAMILY DISTRICT IS ALSO APPROPRIATE. THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS APPROPRIATELY LOCATED ALONG A COLLECTOR STREET, WHICH CAN REASONABLY ACCOMMODATE TRAFFIC. ADDITIONALLY, THE PROPOSAL ALIGNS WITH THE GOALS OF THE STRATEGIC STRATEGIC HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, WHICH ENCOURAGES THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL HOUSING STOCK TO ACCOMMODATE THE CITY'S GROWING POPULATION. AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ALRIGHT, IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE AND IF YOU WOULD STATE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS AND TELL US ABOUT YOUR PROJECT. UM, GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS ESA GONZALEZ. MY ADDRESS IS 8 4 7 EAST ASHBY PLACE, APARTMENT 3 11 7 8 2 1 2. UM, YEAH, IF YOU WOULD TELL US ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO. SO, UH, CURRENTLY THERE IS FOUR UNITS ON THE PROPERTY. UH, AFTER, UH, THROW INSPECTION WE NEED TO DO VERY, VERY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO STRUCTURAL ELECTRICAL FOUNDATION, EVERYTHING LIKE THAT IN ORDER FOR THE PROPERTY TO MEET MARKET STANDARD. ALSO, UH, TWO OF THE UNITS PREVIOUSLY RENTED, WHICH WE KIND OF ALLOWED, UM, THE TENANTS TO FINISH THEIR LEASE LEFT US THE APARTMENT PRETTY DAMAGED. SO, UM, AFTER A THOROUGH STUDY, WE UH, THINK THAT IT WOULD BE BETTER TO DO, UM, DECONSTRUCTION AND BUILD FOUR TOWN HOMES THERE IN THE PROPERTY. UM, THE PROPERTIES CURRENTLY HAS FOUR UNITS. I KNOW THERE WAS A BIG ZONING CHANGE AROUND 2011, SO NOW THE NEW ZONING ONLY ALLOWS FOR THREE. WE JUST WANT TO RESTORE THE PROPERTY TO THE EXISTING UNITS THAT IT CURRENTLY HAS. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU MR. GONZALEZ. YES. ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? NO PUBLIC COMMENT. ALRIGHT. THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE. COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS. UH, A COUPLE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF FIRST. UM, IS IT, IS THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE OPTION? ACTUALLY, LET ME REPHRASE THAT. I'M GONNA TURN THIS INTO TWO QUESTIONS. HOW MANY, UH, TOTAL UNITS WOULD BE AVAILABLE ON THE LOT WITH THE MF 18? GIVE US JUST A SECOND. FOUR. FOUR UNITS. ARE THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE, UH, ZONING OPTION? THE FOUR UNITS THAT THE, UH, APPLICANT IS TRYING TO BUILD? RM FOUR. SO THEY COULD BUILD FOUR UNITS WITH AN RM FOUR? YES. OKAY. IT'S JUST, UM, I BELIEVE IT'S LESS THAN A THIRD OF AN ACRE, SO THEY WOULD ALL HAVE TO BE THE SAME STRUCTURE. OKAY. SO IT WOULD BE FOUR UNITS IN [02:00:01] ONE STRUCTURE? CORRECT. OKAY. UM, CAN YOU PLEASE DESCRIBE THE TOWN HOMES THAT YOU'RE PLANNING TO BUILD? YES. SO CURRENTLY THERE ARE TWO STRUCTURES ON THE PROPERTY. UM, SORRY. UM, AND WHAT WE WANT TO KEEP IT IS TWO STRUCTURES. SO WE'RE PLANNING TO BUILD TWO DUPLEXES, ONE ON EITHER SIDE OF THE PROPERTY WITH AN, UM, A DRIVEWAY IN BETWEEN. UM, INITIALLY WE WANTED TO DO, UH, ONE CAR GARAGE, BUT AFTER SEEING THAT THE PROPERTY NEXT DOOR TURNED FROM A PARKING LOT TO UM, I THINK IT'S LIKE 21 APARTMENT UNITS, THERE'S A LOT MORE PEOPLE PARKING ON THE STREET. SO TO HELP WITH THAT, WE KIND OF MODIFIED OUR PLANS FOR TWO CAR GARAGES. THAT WAY WE DON'T BRING ANY EXTRA TRAFFIC OR TO STREET PARKING THERE. OKAY. HOW, UM, BIG ARE THE STRUCTURES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON SITE? UM, I WOULD SAY THREE UNITS ARE ABOUT 800 SQUARE FEET. BETWEEN SEVEN 60 AND 800. THOSE ARE, THAT'S 800 SQUARE FEET EACH? YES. OKAY. YES. AND THAT UNIT IS ON THE, UH, LEFT HAND SIDE AND THEN ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE IT'S A SINGLE UNIT. I BELIEVE IT'S AROUND 1150. HOW BIG ARE THE UNITS YOU'RE PROPOSING TO BUILD? 24. AROUND 2300, 2400 SQUARE FEET EACH. WILL THESE BE FOR RENT OR SALE? UH, IDEALLY FOR SALE . WHAT COMMUNITY OUTREACH HAVE YOU DONE? SO WE HAVE ENGAGED WITH THE NEIGHBORS. WE HAVE ENGAGED WITH GOVERNMENT HILL ALLIANCE. WE ACTUALLY PRESENTED, UH, OUR INITIAL PLANS WITH THE ELEVATIONS, THINGS LIKE THAT LAST MONTH. THEY WERE VERY RECEPTIVE AND, AND KIND OF CREATED A DISCOURSE. EVERYONE WAS REALLY NICE. I'VE BEEN IN CONSTANT COMMUNICATION WITH ROSE HILL, PHYLLIS NEWMAN, UM, AND PRISCILLA FROM THE GOVERNMENT HILL ALLIANCE. UM, AND WHAT THEY REQUESTED IS THAT WE COME BACK, THIS COMING, UM, I THINK IT'S NEXT WEDNESDAY, THE 23RD, UH, ONCE AGAIN WITH OUR FINAL PLANS. SO KIND OF FINAL, UH, RENDERINGS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. HAVE YOU REACHED OUT TO THE GOVERNMENT HILL TOMORROW COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION AS WELL? UH, NO. I WASN'T AWARE THAT THERE WAS. OKAY. UM, FOR STAFF, ARE THEY STILL REGISTERED AS A COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION? YES. THEY'RE STILL REGISTERED. WE'RE GONNA CHECK THE, UH, BOUNDARY. OKAY. UM, CAN YOU GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL ABOUT WHEN YOU SAID YOU REACHED OUT TO THE, TO THE NEIGHBORS, CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT SPECIFIC PROCESS AND STUFF YOU DID AND IF YOU GOT ANY DOCUMENTED SUPPORT? UM, I, I DIDN'T RECEIVE DOCUMENT FOR SUPPORT, BUT I CAN UH, DEFINITELY REQUEST THEM OR SEND IT OUT TO, TO HAVE THEIR SIGNATURES. SO TO THE NEIGHBOR IN THREE 10, UM, EAST ASHBY, WHICH IS RIGHT ACROSS, UH, I WAS, UH, WENT THROUGH PHYLLIS NEWMAN TO KIND OF GET THEIR INFORMATION SO I CAN REACH OUT. THEY PROVIDED IT. SO I REACHED OUT TO THEM, EXPLAINED TO THEM WHAT WE'RE DOING. THEY HAD A FEW QUESTIONS AND THEY, THEY APPROVE. I MEAN, I'M SURE I CAN GET THAT IN WRITING. AND THEN AS FAR AS, UM, I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HIS NAME, I KNOW HIS FIRST NAME, BUT THE BUILDERS OF THE 21 UNIT AND THREE TOWN HOME DEVELOPMENT RIGHT NEXT TO US AT PINE CARSON. UH, THEY'RE A DEVELOPMENT FIRM FROM SALT LAKE. IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN. I'VE SPOKEN TO THE OWNER BECAUSE HE, UH, OFFERED TO BUY OUR PROPERTY. I WAS LIKE, HEY, THIS IS ACTUALLY WHAT WE'RE WANTING TO DO. SO HE'S AWARE THAT WE'RE GONNA UNDERGO REZONING. OKAY. NO FURTHER QUESTIONS FOR ME. I JUST, UM, WANTED TO ALSO STATE THE REASON WHY GOVERNMENT HILL TOMORROW WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE, UM, NOTIFICATION. THEY'RE OVER 3000 FEET AWAY, SO. OKAY. THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT, ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS? ON MY RIGHT. SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONERS ON MY LEFT. SEEING NONE. ALRIGHT. UH, AGAIN, THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE TO COMMISSIONER WATSON FOR, UH, DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION. OKAY. UM, SO I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION TO CONTINUE THIS, UM, AND I'M GONNA CONTINUE IT TO MAY 20TH. SO YOU HAVE ADEQUATE TIME, UH, TO GET ANY FEEDBACK FROM GOVERNMENT HILL ALLIANCE. YOU'VE MENTIONED THAT YOU'VE REACHED OUT TO THEM AND THAT YOU'RE GOING TO THE NEXT MEETING. YES. UM, SO I WOULD LIKE YOU TO ATTEND THAT MEETING AND TO HAVE ENOUGH TIME SINCE IT'S SOMETIMES TAKES TIME, SOME TIME TO GET PREFERABLY A LETTER OF SOME KIND OF SUPPORT OR NON OPPOSITION FROM THEM. DEFINITELY. UM, SINCE THEY SOUND RECEPTIVE. AND THEN I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE DOCUMENTED SUPPORT FOR THE NEIGHBORS IN 200 FEET THAT YOU'VE REACHED OUT TO. DEFINITELY. UM, JUST BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE IN THE TYPE OF, UM, STRUCTURES. EVEN THOUGH IT'S FOUR UNITS, IT'S A BIG JUMP FROM WHAT COULD BE PERCEIVED AS STARTER RENTAL UNITS TO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AND, UH, EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE SOME MULTI-FAMILY GOING IN NEXT DOOR, YOU HAVE QUITE A BIT OF R FOUR AND RM FIVE AROUND YOU. UM, AND SO MF 18 IS A PRETTY BIG JUMP AND ESPECIALLY WITH DEVELOPMENT IN THE AREA, [02:05:01] I WANNA MAKE SURE NEIGHBORS FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. UM, SO I'M GONNA REQUEST THAT, UH, YOU DO THAT DUE TO THE, TO THE DISTANCE. I'M NOT AS CONCERNED ABOUT GOVERNMENT HILL TOMORROW, BUT I WOULD JUST BE AWARE, UM, THAT THERE IS AN ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION, UM, AND TO CONSIDER REACHING OUT TO THEM, UM, IN CASE YOU GET SOME, UH, OPPOSITION WITHIN THE AREA THAT YOU'RE NOT EXPECTING. UM, BUT THE 200 FEET IN THE NE THE, THE LETTER FROM THE, UH, GOVERNMENT HILL NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS GONNA BE CRITICAL FOR, FOR ME AND FOR THE COUNCILMAN. DEFINITELY. ALRIGHT. ALRIGHT. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? I'M SORRY. THERE IS A MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE TO MAY 20TH. IS THERE A SECOND? SECOND. ALRIGHT. SECOND BY COMMISSIONER REYES. ANY DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS ON MY LEFT. COMMISSIONER ON MY RIGHT. UH, MR. GONZALEZ, THIS IS GONNA BE DIRECTED AT YOU, BUT IT'S ACTUALLY MUCH MORE BROADLY DIRECTED AS WELL, WHICH IS, UH, IT IS ALWAYS WORTHWHILE FOR APPLICANTS TO REACH OUT TO THE COMMISSIONER FOR THE DISTRICTS IN WHICH THEIR PROJECT SITS, UM, BECAUSE I THINK SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS COULD HAVE BEEN ANSWERED BEFOREHAND AND PERHAPS THE CONTINUANCE EITHER MIGHT HAVE BEEN SHORTER OR NOT NECESSARY AT ALL. SO, YOU KNOW, ALTHOUGH I'M TALKING TO YOU, I'M ALSO TALKING MORE BROADLY TO APPLICANTS WHO COME BEFORE THIS BODY. IT IS ALWAYS WORTHWHILE TO REACH OUT TO THE COMMISSIONERS AND TELL THEM ABOUT YOUR PROJECT. UH, SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, THE MOTION IS FOR A CONTINUANCE TO MAY 20TH FOR ITEM NUMBER 23 BY COMMISSIONER WATSON. A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER REYES. ROLL CALL, VOTE PLEASE. COMMISSIONER WATSON? YES. COMMISSIONER REYES? YES. COMMISSIONER KELLUM? YES. COMMISSIONER NOOSA? YES. COMMISSIONER HUEY AYE. COMMISSIONER SIPES? YES. COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ? YES. COMMISSIONER BARROS. COMMISSIONER WIT? YES. COMMISSIONER CHASE? YES. CHAIR BUSANTE. AYE. MOTION CARRIES. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU MR. GONZALEZ. ALRIGHT. AND UH, JUST FOR THE RECORD, COMMISSIONER BARTOS LEFT AT THE LAST UH, BREAK, SO THANK YOU. ALRIGHT, OUR NEXT ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 29. ITEM NUMBER 29 IS LOCATED AT 96 15 US HIGHWAY 180 1 NORTH. GOING FROM R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT TO I ONE GENERAL INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT. THERE WERE 17 NOTICES SENT OUT, ZERO IN FAVOR, ZERO POSTS AND THERE WAS NO NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE PROPERTY. STAFF HAS FOUND LIKELY, SORRY, STAFF HAS FOUND INDICATION OF LIKELY ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY OR WELFARE. THE EXISTING R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS INAPPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY IN THE SURROUNDING AREA. THE PROPOSED I ONE GENERAL INDUSTRIAL JURISDICTION IS NOT APPROPRIATE. THE PROPERTY HAS AN EXISTING CONCRETE BATCHING PLANT TO THE EAST. OPERATING AS A NON-CONFORMING USE. THE REQUEST THAT I ONE BASED ZONING DISTRICT WOULD ALLOW FOR MORE INTENSE USES NOT CURRENTLY PRESENT IN THE AREA. THE EXISTING MOBILE HOMES NEAR THE SUBJECT PROPERTY COULD BE NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY ALLOWING THE I ONE GENERAL INDUSTRIAL USES. THEREFORE, STAFF RECOMMENDS C TWO CD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR A BATCHING PLANT TO PERMIT THE USE AS IT IS EXISTING TO THE WEST AND LIMITED ADDITIONAL USES TO COMMERCIAL INTENSITY. THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION OF C TWO CD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE WILL REQUIRE SUBMITTAL A A SITE PLAN AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ALRIGHT, THANK YOU. UH, IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE. UH, GOOD AFTERNOON COMMISSIONERS. UH, NICE TO MEET YOU. UH, MY NAME IS ERIC. I'M A COMMERCIAL SPECIALIST WITH, UH, FILLING BRO PHYLLIS BROWNING COMMERCIAL.

I'M A COMMERCIAL SPECIALIST WITH PHYLLIS BROWNING COMMERCIAL AND HERE TO REPRESENT, UM, MY CLIENT IS THE ACTUAL SELLER AND TEXAS MATERIAL GROUP HERE IS THE ONE THAT'S GONNA BE PURCHASING AND DEVELOPING THE SITE. AND WHAT'S YOUR ADDRESS? 3 3 8 HAVANA, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. OKAY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. MM-HMM . ALRIGHT. SO TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT, ABOUT WHAT UH, YOU'D LIKE TO DO HERE. YOU WANNA GO FIRST? GO AHEAD. UH, SO WHAT WE DID IS WE WERE GONNA GO AHEAD AND DO A READY MIX CONCRETE PLAN TO GO AHEAD AND SERVE THE COMMUNITY NEARBY TO GO AHEAD AND DEVELOP, YOU KNOW, THE COMMERCIAL AND ANY OF THE RESIDENTIAL AREAS AROUND THERE. WE WENT AHEAD AND TO, WE UNDERSTOOD THE IMPACT OF I ONE, UM, YOU KNOW, INDUSTRIAL, HOW THAT COULD BE, YOU KNOW, ADVERSIVE IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN LATER ON. SO WITH THAT RECOMMENDATION, UH, WE HAD REPRESENTATIVES FROM, UH, DISTRICT THREE TO GO VISIT A CURRENT PLANT THAT'S ALREADY OPERATIONS. THERE'S SEVEN ALREADY IN SAN ANTONIO. SO TO GO AHEAD AND SEE WHAT IT WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, THE OPERATIONS WOULD BE LIKE, AND WE WENT AHEAD AND, UM, UNDERSTAND THAT RIGHT NEXT DOOR. IT'S A VERY [02:10:01] SIMILAR, YOU KNOW, OPERATION THAT'S GOING ON. SO THAT'S PRETTY MUCH, UM, THE GIST OF IT. OKAY. ALRIGHT. UM, THIS IS, UH, ANY, SORRY PA PARDON ME? ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? NO PUBLIC COMMENT. ALRIGHT. UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT THREE CASE COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA TO YOU, UH, FOR THE APPLICANT. JUST REMIND ME, I THINK THE ALTERNATE CITY RECOMMENDATION STAFF RECOMMENDATION, YOU GUYS ARE, ARE, ARE GOOD WITH THAT MM-HMM . SO I GUESS, DO YOU GUYS WANT TO STATE THAT PUBLICLY FOR THE RECORD AND THEN UH, WE CAN GO FORWARD? YES, WE DO SUPPORT THAT. UH, WE'RE FLEXIBLE AND, AND WE'LL WORK WITH THE CITY, UH, ON WHATEVER'S NEEDED TO LET US GO FORWARD WITH OUR PROJECT. AND THEN CITY STAFF, CAN YOU, CAN YOU LET HIM KNOW WHAT THE ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION WAS SO HE CAN STATE THAT FOR THE RECORD AMENDED? WELL, HONESTLY, WE NEED A SITE PLAN WITH ALL CONDITIONAL USES. A SITE PLAN IS NEEDED AND BECAUSE ONE HAS NOT BEEN SUBMITTED, WE CANNOT PROCEED TODAY FOR THE CD IF THEY CHOOSE TO AMEND. OKAY. AND WE DID SUBMIT ONE, BUT IT WASN'T THE LEVEL THAT WAS NEEDED FOR YOUR REVIEW. SO THAT IS UNDERWAY RIGHT NOW AND WE ANTICIPATE HAVING AN IMPROVED SITE PLAN WITHIN THE NEXT TWO TO THREE WEEKS. OKAY. UM, CHAIRMAN, I GUESS I'LL OPEN IT UP FOR ANY QUESTIONS. OKAY. THANK YOU. UH, QUESTIONS TO MY RIGHT? YES, COMMISSIONER REYES? ACTUALLY I'LL HAVE QUESTIONS WHEN I SEE THE SITE PLAN. SORRY. FAIR ENOUGH. UH, COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT. NOPE, COMMISSIONER'S TO MY LEFT. OKAY, SO YOU SAY TWO TO THREE WEEKS? UM, DEPENDING ON THE TIMELINE OF OUR ENGINEER. CORRECT. OKAY. WE LIKE TO DO IT IN TWO, BUT IT MIGHT BLEED OVER. ALRIGHT, WELL HERE'S YES. UH, JUST ONE CLARIFICATION BEFORE YOU GUYS TAKE ACTION. IF THEY ARE AMENDING, WE'LL NEED THAT FOR THE RECORD SO THAT THAT WAY WHEN WE BRING IT BACK IT'LL HAVE THE AMENDED REQUEST. OKAY. SO I WILL GO BACK TO STAFF. CAN YOU, SINCE I, I TRIED TO DOWNLOAD THE STAFF MEMO AND IT IS, UH, SOME KIND OF HTML CODE. IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A C TWO, C TWO CD, C TWO CD FOR A BATCH PLANT. MM-HMM . FOR A BATCH PLANT. OKAY.
