ALRIGHT, WE ARE NOW GOING TO MOVE ON TO OUR INDIVIDUAL HEARING DOCKET WHEN WE WILL BEGIN WITH ITEM NUMBER FOUR.
MY NAME IS ALEX RATANA, ZONING PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER FOUR IS LOCATED AT 1 4 6 1 8 SANTA GERDA STREET GOING FROM R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT TO R SIX RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR AN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY WITH NO MORE THAN 16 RESIDENTS WITH ALL OVERLAYS STAYING THE SAME.
THERE WERE 17 NOTICES SENT OUT.
THREE IN FAVOR, ONE OPPOSED EL CHOPRA NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION GAVE NO RESPONSE.
AND OUTSIDE THE 200 FEET, THERE IS SIX OPPOSED.
THE EXISTING R FIVE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS IN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA.
THE PROPOSED R FIVE CD RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT WITH THE CONDITIONAL USE FOR AN ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY WITH NO MORE THAN 16 RESIDENTS IS ALSO APPROPRIATE.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY SITUATED WITHIN AN AN WITHIN AN AREA WITH LARGE LOT SIZES, WHICH CAN ACCOMMODATE THE INCREASED DENSITY AND OFF STREET PARKING REQUIREMENTS.
THE SITE WILL BE HELD TO A PRESCRIBED SITE PLAN AND ANY DEVIATION WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL COUNSEL CONSIDERATION.
STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
UH, IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE.
UH, MIKE NUMBER JEANETTE'S NUMBER ONE AND, UH, WE TOOK THE RECOMMENDATIONS.
I'M SORRY, CAN YOU TURN ON YOUR MICROPHONE PLEASE? THERE WE GO.
WE TOOK THE RECOMMENDATIONS, UH, MR. WITT, UH, COMMISSIONER WITT FROM THE LAST TIME, UH, GOING AND SPEAKING TO THE NEIGHBORS AND WE DID, UH, SPEAK TO THE, UH, CHURCH ACROSS THE STREET.
THEY BOTH SIGNED A PETITION DURING IN AGREEANCE.
UH, WE DID, UH, SO WE GOT THREE SIGNATURES ON THAT RIGHT NOW.
AT THE LAST MINUTE WE GOT ANOTHER SIGNATURE FROM ONE, ONE OF THE OTHER GENTLEMEN WHO'S ALSO, HE HAD BEEN IN ON A TOWN, THEIR TEACHERS, BUT THEY'RE IN AGREEANCE ALSO.
AND, AND THEY'RE WITHIN THE 200 FEET.
UH, WE KNOW THAT WE'VE HAD SOME OPPOSITIONS.
THOSE OPPOSITIONS ARE COMING FROM A STREET THAT'S NOT PART OF THE, THE AREA OF THE 200 FEET.
UH, I KNOW THE, UH, MAIN CONCERN IS MR. CLARK AND HE DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS, THERE'S BEEN AN ASSISTED LIVING TWO DOORS FROM HIM THERE.
AND HIS CONCERN WAS ABOUT NOISE AND ALL THAT.
UH, BRINGING UP ON THE NOISE, UH, THERE'S A FIRE STATION NUMBER 40, WHICH IS ONLY LESS THAN 700 FEET FROM HIS RESIDENCE.
SO WHEN I MENTIONED BEFORE THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE NO MORE THAN MAYBE TWO AMBULANCES A YEAR, UH, I'M PRETTY SURE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT PRODUCES A LOT MORE SIRENS GOING ON DURING THAT TIME BECAUSE WE'VE HEARD 'EM DURING JUST THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT WE'VE OWNED THE PROPERTY.
UH, WE FEEL THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE, UH, UH, SITES OF THE LAND IS APPROPRIATE.
WE WOULD NOT HAVE ANY TRAFFIC GOING ON.
AS TO MOST OF OUR, ALL OUR RESIDENTS DO NOT DRIVE WHEN THEY'RE ADMITTED.
THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TO BE DRIVING BECAUSE THAT ENDANGERS THE, THE PUBLIC AROUND THERE.
UH, ANY QUESTIONS, UH, OR ANYTHING? WELL, BASICALLY THE ONES THAT SIGNED IS THIS ENTIRE SIDE OF THE STREET BECAUSE THAT THE PERSON THAT SIGNED HERE OWNS FOUR ACRES HERE AND THIS ONE OWNS OVER AN ACRE.
SO IT'S THE ENTIRE SIDE OF THE STREET PLUS THIS RESIDENCE HERE THAT'S IN THE ZONE SIGNED.
SO YOU CAN GIVE THAT TO STAFF.
YOU CAN GIVE THAT TO STAFF AND THEY CAN PUT IT UP ON THE OBJECTOR.
AND WE DID OBTAIN ONE MORE SIGNATURE THIS MORNING, SO OKAY.
UH, ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE OR CONCERNS, WE'LL, WE'LL GET TO THAT.
OUR NEXT STEP WILL BE PUBLIC COMMENT.
WE DO HAVE VOICEMAILS AND A SPEAKER SIGNED UP.
UM, IF WE COULD HAVE THE SPEAKER FIRST.
[00:15:09]
GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYBODY.I, I AM, UH, I OWN THE HOUSE RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO THE PROPERTY.
I OWN 1 4 6 2 6 SANTA GRATUS AND I ALSO, UH, OWN MY RESIDENCE RIGHT ON THE NEXT STREET OVER.
I, I'VE BEEN, UH, THAT IN, IN THAT AREA FOR 28 YEARS.
I'M A, I'M A LICENSED REAL ESTATE BROKER FOR OVER 25 YEARS HERE IN, UH, SAN ANTONIO.
I OWN MY OWN COMPANY, ONE OF THE LARGEST PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES IN THE CITY.
ALSO, YOU KNOW, FOR ME, OWNING A PROPERTY RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
UM, AND I ASKED THE SAME QUESTIONS LAST TIME IS IF YOU WERE LOOKING FOR A HOUSE AND YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE BUY AND MOVING THE AREA, WOULD YOU WANT TO LIVE TO A, UH, A BUSINESS OR A ING UH, UM, ASSISTED LIVING NEXT DOOR? UM, TO ME AS, AS AN OWNER, AS A SELLER, AS A BUYER, DEFINITELY NOT.
AND MY, MY CONCERN HERE IS AS THEY BROUGHT UP, UH, LAST TIME, THEY SAID THERE'S NO TRAFFIC.
WELL, THIS IS A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY AND THE PEOPLE THAT ARE RIGHT NEXT DOOR, THERE IS A CHURCH RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
THEY LIVED THERE FOR A LONG TIME.
IT'S NOT A VERY ACTIVE CHURCH.
THEY OWN SOME LAND RIGHT NEXT TO THIS PROPERTY THEY'RE TRYING TO GET THE ASSISTED LIVING ON IS, IS OWNED BY ACRES FROM A VIETNAMESE CHURCH ALL THE WAY IN THE CORNER.
THIS IS A CONCERN I HAVE IS THE HOUSE RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
I DO NOT WANT A RESIDENTIAL ASSISTED LIVING NEXT DOOR.
UM, THERE IS A YOUNG DAUGHTER, UH, PEOPLE THAT THERE, UH, THEY HAVE A YOUNG DAUGHTER.
MY DAUGHTER LIVES ON THE NEXT STREET.
I HAVE FIVE GRANDCHILDREN AND THEY'RE VERY YOUNG.
AND YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT? YEAH, THEY'RE THERE FOR A REASON, BUT ASSISTED LIVING OF 16 PEOPLE.
UM, I DID NOT BUILD MY HOUSE 28 YEARS AGO OR OWN THIS PROPERTY RIGHT NEXT DOOR FOR A COMMERCIAL RIGHT NEXT DOOR.
IT'S A RESIDENTIAL AREA AND I'M ASKING FOR YOU GUYS TO CONSIDER LOOKING AT FROM A PERSON THAT IS GONNA BUY A HOME.
IT'S GONNA HURT THE VALUE AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SELL THAT HOME.
IF YOU ARE LOOKING AND YOU'RE MOVING INTO SAN ANTONIO AND I'M SELLING THIS HOUSE AND YOU SEE THIS FACILITY RIGHT NEXT DOOR, WOULD YOU BUY IT? AND THAT'S THE NUMBER ONE QUESTION I HAVE.
HE STOOD UP HERE AND, AND, AND BASICALLY SAID THAT I KNEW OF IT.
I MEAN, I OWN THE PROPERTY THAT HE BOUGHT.
I CARRIED THE NOTE AS A SELLER FINANCE AND NOT ONCE WAS IT ABOUT ASSISTED LIVING.
MY CONCERN IS MY PROPERTY NEXT DOOR AND THEN ALSO THE PROPERTY NEXT DOOR.
THERE'S A VOICE RECORDED, THEY OWN THERE AND PEOPLE AROUND THERE, THEY WANT TO LIVE IN PEACE.
THEY WANT TO BE THERE NOT HAVING A BUSINESS NEXT DOOR.
SO, YOU KNOW, BEING A REAL ESTATE BROKER AND, AND BEING IN THE PROFESSION A LONG TIME, I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT THERE FOR FIRSTHAND, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SELL THAT PROPERTY.
I WOULD HAVE A HECK OF A TIME AND IT'S GONNA DETERIORATE THE VALUE OF IT.
AND THE PERSON THAT'S THERE WANTED, HE WAS BASICALLY GONNA BUY THE HOUSE AND HE'S NOT GONNA BUY IT.
AND YOU PROBABLY HEAR ON THE VOICE MESSAGE, HE'S A SINGLE FATHER, HE HAS A DAUGHTER AND NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN HE'S NOT GONNA BUY THAT HOUSE BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT A FACILITY NEXT DOOR.
SO I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS LOOKING AT FROM THE EYES OF BUYING A HOUSE IN, IN YOUR FAMILY, WOULD YOU LIVE NEXT DOOR? AND THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING, IT'S A RESIDENTIAL AREA AND I'D ASK FOR YOU GUYS TO CONSIDER THAT AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YES, MY NAME IS JOHN STAFF, S-T-A-F-F-E-L AND I LIVE ON VIEW CREST ROAD AND I'M CALLING ABOUT THE ZONING.
UM, I BELIEVE THE LAST FOUR IS 0 1 2 4.
UM, OVER HERE ON I BELIEVE SANTA GA RUDAS.
UM, I DON'T, YOU KNOW, WE IT, THIS IS A FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD.
THEY TRIED TO DO IT OVER ON ASHIRE A WHILE BACK AND WE LOCKED THEM FROM THAT.
I DON'T THINK ANYBODY IN THIS AREA AND THE, YOU KNOW, IN THIS, UH, FERTILE VALLEY FARMS WANTS ANYTHING LIKE THAT THERE WE GOT, HAD A CHURCH BUILT OVER THERE AND IT'S, THEY PLAY MUSIC EVERY WEEKEND AND SO YOU CAN'T HARDLY HEAR YOURSELF THINK MOST OF THE TIME, BUT WE DON'T NEED AMBULANCES AND ALL THAT OTHER STUFF GOING ON.
SO I, I'M GONNA SAY NO AGAINST THAT AND UM, BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.
SO ONCE AGAIN, UM, I WANT TO SAY NO AGAINST CASE NUMBER Z DASH 2 0 2 5 DASH 7 0 1 24 CD AND UH, UH, WE DON'T WANT ANY KIND OF THAT IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
I'M THE OWNER OF 1 4 6 3 0 SANTA ES STREET, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 1 7.
[00:20:02]
ING BECAUSE THIS IS A VERY QUIET COMMUNITY.THAT'S WHY WE BOUGHT THIS HOUSE AND WE DON'T WANT NO NOISE, NO AMBULANCE.
THE CASE NUMBER IS Z ZEBRA 2 0 2 5 DASH 1 0 7 0 0 1 2 4 CZ, ZEBRA, 2 0 2 5 DASH 1 0 7 0 0 1 2 4 C AS IN CAT, D AS IN DAVID.

MY NAME IS TERRENCE BAKER AND I LIVE ON RET AND I PAY HIGH DOLLAR AMOUNT FOR MY PROPERTY OVER THERE.
I'M CALLING TO SAY THAT I'M OPPOSED TO THE BUILDING OF THE ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY ON SAN GRATUITOUS BECAUSE OF THE HIGH TRAFFIC THAT THAT WILL BRING.
AND WE HAVE KIDS THAT ARE VERY YOUNG OF AGE, SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN AND THINGS LIKE THAT THAT ACTUALLY DO GO AHEAD AND PLAY IN THE STREETS AND EVERYTHING.
AND WE JUST DON'T WANT A SITUATION WHERE THERE'S A LOT OF AMBULATORY TRAFFIC AND THINGS LIKE THAT, ESPECIALLY WITH E EMERGENCY VEHICLES AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE.
SO I'M LETTING YOU KNOW THAT I'M OPPOSED TO THAT.
AND AGAIN, I'M A RESIDENT IN THE AREA I LIVE ON VIEW CREST, RIGHT ONE STREET OVER AND THIS IS JUST SOMETHING THAT WE DO NOT WANT AND I'M OPPOSED TO THAT.
THE LAST FOUR OF THE CASE NUMBER IS 0 1 2 4.
HI, MY NAME IS ALLISON DEANDRO.
I LIVE AT 4 8 5 8 BU CREST ROAD, UH, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 1 7.
AND THIS IS REGARDING, UM, THE CASE ENDING IN 0 1 2 4 CD.
UM, I WAS JUST CALLING TO GIVE MY INPUT AS FAR AS THE CHANGE, UM, THAT I DO NOT AGREE WITH IT AND UM, I AM A, A NURSE OF SEVEN YEARS.
I DO, UM, SEE THESE KIND OF THINGS ALL THE TIME.
UM, I AM A NICU NURSE BUT AS A NURSE IN THE BACKGROUND, I DO HAVE, I DO KNOW THE KNOWLEDGE OF, UH, THIS SITUATION AND I HAVE FIVE SMALL KIDS, THE AGES OF 13, 10, 5, 2, AND ONE, UM, WHO IS BARELY UNDER ONE YEARS OLD AND JUST THE TRAFFIC OF AN AMBULANCE COMING INSIDE AND OUT AND WE LIVE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET, SO I JUST DO NOT WANT MY SMALL KIDS EXPOSED AND HAVING TO EXPLAIN WHY THE AMBULANCE IS CONSTANTLY THERE, WHAT IS GOING ON, UM, WITH THIS KIND OF SITUATION.
WE LIVE IN A VERY QUIET, YOU KNOW, VERY NICE NEIGHBORHOOD.
UM, AND JUST THAT KIND OF EXPOSURE IS JUST SOMETHING I DO NOT WANT MY SMALL KIDS, YOU KNOW, BEING EXPOSED TO AT THIS YOUNG OF AN AGE.
UM, YOU KNOW, SO THAT'S MY INPUT ON IT.
UM, I APPRECIATE Y'ALL'S TIME AND HEARING ME OUT AND IF Y'ALL NEED ANYTHING, MY PHONE NUMBER IS (210) 873-4570.
ALRIGHT, UM, MR. SAN RAMON AND MR. SAN RAMON, ACTUALLY ONE SPEAKER FOR REBUTTAL.
OKAY, MR. SANON, UH, I WILL START OFF FROM THE BEGINNING WITH MR. CLARK, UH, STATING THAT HE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT.
YOU KNOW, ONCE AGAIN HE DID KNOW ABOUT IT.
HE ASKED, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE GONNA FINANCE SOMEONE, THEY'RE GONNA KNOW WHAT YOU DO FOR A LIVING, WHAT YOU HAD AND ALL THAT.
THEY DON'T JUST, OH, HERE IT IS.
SO, YOU KNOW, HE KNEW FOR 28 YEARS WE OWNED ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES IN MCALLEN, TEXAS.
UH, WE WERE VERY RESPECTED THERE.
THEY WERE ALL SURROUNDED BY, UH, RESIDENTIAL HOMES AND, UH, NEVER WAS THERE AN INCIDENT WITH ANY OF THE HOMEOWNERS.
THEY ALWAYS SOMETIMES VISITED, DROPPED OFF, UH, CAKES, DIFFERENT THINGS FOR THE RESIDENTS, FLOWERS AND ALL THAT.
UH, WE OFFERED YESTERDAY WE SPOKE TO MR. UH CLARK OVER THE PHONE.
WE TOLD HIM, IF YOU'RE CONCERNED YOU'RE NOT GONNA SELL THE HOUSE, WE'LL BUY IT FROM YOU.
YOU KNOW, WE'RE WILLING TO SELL OUR PERSONAL HOME IN VERDE AND MOVE NEXT DOOR.
HE'S TOLD US, WELL, I'LL CALL YOU BACK IN AN HOUR.
SO, I MEAN, THAT, THAT WAS HIS CONCERN ON THAT.
HE MENTIONED ABOUT THE VIETNAMESE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
THEY'RE AN APPROVAL DURING THE LIST RIGHT THERE WITH THE SIGNATURES.
UH, THEY AGREED FULLY WITH IT.
[00:25:01]
WE GO ON THE FIRST, UH, GENTLEMAN, MR. STAFFORD, I BELIEVE HE'S NOT IN THE, UH, THERE IN THE 200, UH, AREA.AND ALSO HE IS RUNNING A BUSINESS FROM THERE, UH, CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS AND IT'S PUBLIC INFORMATION ON THAT ADDRESS.
UH, LEMME SEE, IT'S 24 48, 34 VIEW CREST, MR. JOHN STEFFEL.
AND IT'S PUBLIC INFORMATION THAT HE HAS RUNNING A CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS OUT OF THERE.
HE HAS ALL KINDS OF CON CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES, UH, YOU KNOW, LOADERS, ALL KINDS OF, OF EQUIPMENT.
SO I DON'T KNOW, THERE'S NOT MORE NOISE THAN A TRACTOR GOING OFF.
UH, THE THIRD ONE, MR. TERRANCE BAKER AT 48 11 NEWCREST ROAD.
HE DOESN'T OWN THE HOME AND HE DOESN'T LIVE ON THE 200 FOOT THAT'S OWNED BY MR. CLARK.
AND HE'S JUST A, A TENANT THERE, A RENTER.
AND SO I'M NOT SURPRISED THAT HE'S NOT SUPPORTING WHEN MR. CLARK IS, UH, ADVISING HIM TO SAY, BECAUSE NOW THERE'S FINANCIAL REASONS THERE.
UM, AND THEN WE GET TO THE THIRD ONE, UH, THE FEMALE, I DON'T REMEMBER HER NAME, THAT'S HIS DAUGHTER LIVES RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO HIM.
AND, YOU KNOW, CONSIDERING THAT SHE'S A NURSE, SHE WOULD REALIZE THAT AN ELDERLY PERSON AT, YOU KNOW, AVERAGE AGE THAT'S 78 TO 80 YEARS OLD, THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE MAKING A LOT OF NOISE.
THEY'RE NOT OUT THERE THROWING PARTIES, THEY'RE NOT OUT THERE IN A SWIMMING POOL OR BARBECUING AND ALL THOSE THINGS.
THEY'RE THERE TO RISK, THEY'RE THERE TO, TO ENJOY THEIR, YOU KNOW, THEIR, THEIR LAST TIMES OF THEIR YEARS IN LIFE AND, AND THEY'RE THERE SO THEY'RE NOT THERE.
THEY SEE WHAT, WHO THEY'RE GONNA BOTHER AND ALL THAT.
SO BASICALLY, UM, I STILL, WE STILL STAND ON THE SAME THING THAT WE FEEL IT'S APPROPRIATE.
MOST OF THE COMMUNITY THERE AGREES ON IT, AGREES ON IT.
UH, WE WENT AND SPOKE TO A LOT OF THE PEOPLE THAT WERE OUT OF THE AREA.
THEY'RE ALL IN AGREEANCE, BUT THE MAIN ONES THAT WE WERE WANTING TO GET SIGNATURES ARE THE ONES THAT WERE WITHIN THE 200 FOOT.
ALRIGHT, THANK YOU SO MUCH, MR. SAN RAMON.
ALRIGHT, THIS IS A DISTRICT 10 CASE COMMISSIONER.
WHAT'S THAT TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS? I GUESS MY FIRST ONE IS FOR THE STAFF, JUST TO REFRESH MY MEMORY, UH, THE EXISTING RIGHTS THAT THEY HAVE UNDER THE CURRENT ZONING, HOW MANY UH, PEOPLE CAN THEY HAVE IN THE FACILITY? THEY ARE PERMITTED UP TO, UH, SIX RESIDENTS AND UM, THIS WILL GIVE THEM THE OPTION TO GO INTO 16.
BUT AGAIN, HOW MANY ARE Y'ALL GONNA ACTUALLY HAVE IN THAT FACILITY? WE, WE WOULD LIKE TO EVENTUALLY IN THE FUTURE BE ABLE TO EXPAND UP TO THE 16, BUT ORIGINALLY WE'RE PROBABLY GONNA START AT ABOUT EIGHT TO 10, SOMEWHERE AROUND THERE.
IT ALL, IT IS GONNA COORDINATE WITH THE, UH, THE TEXAS HEALTH DEPARTMENT TO SEE ON THEIR LICENSING, HOW, HOW WE CAN COORDINATE BASED ON THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AND EVERYTHING.
THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT AT THE MOMENT.
ALRIGHT, THANK YOU COMMISSIONER.
WHAT'S UH, UH, COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT QUESTIONS? NOPE.
COMMISSIONER OSA, I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE APPLICANT.
UM, CURRENTLY, JUST REMIND ME REAL QUICK, HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS? HAS THAT HOUSE BEEN A ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY? 28 YEARS.
WE HAD ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY HOMES.
WE BARELY, UH, PURCHASED THE PROPERTY.
WE PURCHASED THE PROPERTY 90 DAYS.
OH, SO THERE'S NOBODY CURRENTLY IN THERE? NO, NO, THERE'S NOBODY THERE.
IT, IT'S, UH, IT'S A VACANT HOME RIGHT NOW.
THE SECOND QUESTION IS, UH, I SEE THERE'S A FENCE, RIGHT? THERE'S A IRON FENCE IN THE BACKYARD.
SO IF THE ELDER, IF THE RESIDENTS, IF THEY WANT TO VENTURE OUTSIDE, WILL THEY BE GOING TO THE FRONT OR TO THE BACK OR DOES IT DEPEND? IT IT WOULD BE TO THE BACKYARD ONLY.
THAT AND ESCORTED BY, BY AN EMPLOYEE.
BECAUSE OF THE HEATS, THINGS LIKE THAT WE CAN LEAVE A RESIDENT OUT TO.
UH, MOSTLY SPENT OUTSIDE IS 10 MINUTES.
ALRIGHT, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER? ON MY RIGHT.
COMMISSIONER CHASE QUESTIONS? OKAY, NO QUESTIONS FOR COMMISSIONER CHASE.
TO MY LEFT COMMISSIONER'S QUESTIONS, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE I HEARD RIGHT THAT THE APPLICANT IS WILLING TO BUY THE HOME NEXT TO I I BELIEVE THAT WAS YES.
WHAT WAS STATED? HEY KELLY, I THOUGHT IN THE LAST PRESENTATION I HEARD EIGHT RESIDENTS, UM, AND TODAY I HEARD SIX, SO I'M JUST GOING BY MEMORY, BUT I THOUGHT WE SAID EIGHT RESIDENTS WAS THE ALLOWANCE.
NO, THEY'RE PERMITTED UP TO SIX RESIDENTS, UH, WITH THE CURRENT ZONING.
SO I BELIEVE, AND ANYONE CAN CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, THAT THERE IS SORT OF THIS NON OVERLAP AS BETWEEN THE SORT OF TEXAS HEALTHCARE REGULATIONS WHICH START OR CAN GO TO EIGHT AND THEN THE ZONING, WHICH IS AT SIX.
AND SO I THINK EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE WE, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THESE CASES, WE HAVE SOME
[00:30:01]
MISUNDERSTANDING THAT THE, FOR OUR ISSUES HERE AT ZONING IT IS SIX OR UP TO 16.UH, BUT THE TEXAS STATE LICENSURE DOES INVOLVE EIGHT AND SO I THINK THAT CAUSES SOME CONFUSION, BUT FOR OUR PURPOSES I THINK IT'S JUST SIX OR UP TO 16.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONER TSET TO YOU FOR FURTHER QUESTIONS.
ANYONE ELSE FURTHER QUESTIONS? SEEING NONE.
UM, IT IS NOW TO YOU FOR DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION.
UH, I CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND THE ISSUES THAT ARE COMING UP.
UH, WE HAD A CASE LIKE THIS A FEW WEEKS AGO OUT IN A VERY DENSE AREA IN NORTHERN HILLS THAT HAD BEEN OPERATING AS A, UH, EXISTING FACILITY AND THEY NEEDED AN EXPANSION, UH, AND THEY WERE VERY QUIET AND, YOU KNOW, VERY ACCEPTED BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN AN AREA WITH HOUSES ALL AROUND.
UM, I FEEL LIKE THAT THIS IS AN APPROPRIATE USE, THE FACT THAT THEY CAN'T ALREADY DO SIX AND WE'RE INCREASING IT SOME.
SO I'M GONNA SUPPORT THIS MOTION, UH, AND THE APPROVAL, UH, TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS.
ALRIGHT, THERE IS A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER FOUR BY COMMISSIONER.
WHAT'S IT? AND I'LL SECOND THAT MOTION.
UH, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER BOTTLES FURTHER DISCUSSION.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER CHASE? SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER ON MY RIGHT.
ALRIGHT, THE MOTION IS FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER FOUR BY COMMISSIONER WHITSETT WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER BARTOS.
UH, Y'ALL WILL HEAD ON TO CITY COUNCIL.
UH, MR. CLARK, YOU WILL HAVE ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS THEM THERE.
WE ARE A RECOMMENDING BODY SO YOU CAN STILL GO AND PRESS YOUR CASE AT COUNCIL.
WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON NOW TO ITEM NUMBER SIX.
MY NAME IS ADA GOMEZ, ZONING SENIOR PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER SIX IS LOCATED 88 0 2 TROY DRIVE GOING FROM R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT TO C TWO CD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR OVERSIZED VEHICLES.
THERE WERE 22 NOTICES SENT OUT.
THE HARLANDALE MCCOLLUM NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS OPPOSED.
STAFF DOES FIND EVIDENCE OF LIKELY ADVERSE IMPACTS ON THE NEIGHBORING LANDS IN RELATION TO THIS ZONING CHANGE REQUEST.
THE PROPOSED USE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE EXISTING R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA.
THE PROPOSED C TWO CD COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE OVERSIZED VEHICLE STORAGE IS NOT APPROPRIATE.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS A BUDDING SINGLE FAMILY USES PROPOSED CHANGING OF ZONING, WOULD PERMIT COMMERCIAL ENCROACHMENT AND USES THAT MAY CAUSE HIGHER TRAFFIC, POTENTIAL NOISE POLLUTION AND OTHER NUISANCES.
THERE ARE NO COMMERCIAL USES IN PROXIMITY WITH THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
THE PROPERTY IS ENTIRELY WITHIN A HUNDRED YEAR FLOOD PLAN.
FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT DIVISION HAS STATED PARKING OF OFFROAD OF ROAD READY VEHICLES STORED NO LONGER THAN 180 DAYS WOULD BE PERMITTED BUT NO STRUCTURES ARE TO BE BUILT AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE.
UM, CAN WE GET THIS TRANSLATE? OH YES.
IF WE COULD HAVE INTERPRETATION SERVICES PLEASE.
I BOUGHT THIS LOT LONG TIME AGO AND I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS IN THE FLO ZONE.
[00:35:01]
TO STORAGE TWO TRACTORS.I HAVE SOME COMPLAINTS WITH THE NEIGHBORS AND THEY NEED, THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO CHANGE THE ZONE.
SO MY INTENTION HERE TO CHANGE THE ZONING IS TO UTILIZE THE LOT THAT I CAN USE IT FOR A BUSINESS.
UM, THIS LOT IS AT THE END OF THE STREET.
I ONLY HAVE ONE NEIGHBOR AND THERE ARE NO NEIGHBORS AROUND IN ANY OF THE SITES AND NEITHER AT THE BACK.
AND, UM, WE MIGHT BRING YOU BACK UP IF THERE'S ANY PUBLIC COMMENT OR QUESTIONS.
UM, THIS IS A DISTRICT THREE CASE COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS.
AT THIS TIME I'LL OPEN UP TO OUR FELLOW COMMISSIONERS, UH, CHAIR TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT QUESTIONS.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER CHASE QUESTIONS.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT.
ALRIGHT, UH, I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS.
UM, STAFF, YOU KNOW, IT SEEMS LIKE OBVIOUSLY C TWO CD IS INTENSIVE USE HERE, UM, MANDATED BY THE OVERSIZED VEHICLE PARKING.
UM, YOU KNOW, THE FACT THAT IT'S AT THE END OF A RESIDENTIAL STREET DOESN'T SEEM TO ARGUE IN ITS FAVOR, BUT NOW MY QUESTION, UM, IS THERE ANYTHING LESS INTENSIVE THAT WE COULD DO THAT WOULD ACCOMPLISH THIS USE? NO, THIS IS KIND OF THE LOWEST, UH, ZONING DISTRICT THAT WOULD PERMIT THE OVERSIZED VEHICLE STORAGE AND TRAILERS THAT WOULD, I BELIEVE HE'S GOT TRAILERS ON THERE AND ALSO LARGER VANS, VEHICLES.
SO THIS IS THE LOWEST ZONING DISTRICT THAT WE COULD DO.
I JUST WANTED TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY SORT OF CREATIVE SOLUTIONS WE CAN COME UP WITH.
SOMETIMES WE CAN, SOMETIMES WE CAN'T.
I GUESS THE QUESTION MIGHT BE FOR THE APPLICANT, UM, WHEN, WHEN YOU, WHEN YOU SAY TRACTOR, ARE YOU, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT TRACTOR AS IN LIKE TRACTOR TRAILER, 18 WHEELER TYPE TRACTOR? OR ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT LIKE MOWING MOWING TRACTOR OR, OR UH, OR UH, FARM TRACTOR? NO, IT IS, IT IS LIKE A BO UH, BO AT UM, UH, SMALL HOLDER.
SO IT, IT IS NOT, IT IS NOT A BIG TRACTOR.
IT'S LIKE A BOBCAT THAT YOU HAVE THE EXCAVATOR IS THAT TYPE OF TRACTOR THAT I HAVE.
AND I GUESS, UH, FOR STAFF, UM, OVERSIZED VEHICLE, DOES THAT INCLUDE TRACTOR TRAILER AS IN 18 WHEELER TYPE? YES.
BASICALLY ANYTHING THAT'S OVER A CERTAIN SIZE IN DIMENSIONS ON WIDTH OR HEIGHT WE CLASSIFY TO THE OVERSIZED VEHICLE AND THE MACHINERY.
I UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S A BOBCAT AND IT'S, YOU KNOW, BUT AGAIN IT IS HEAVY MACHINERY THAT WILL HAVE TO BE CONSTITUTED PART OF THE OVERSIZED VEHICLE DEAL.
UM, IT'S USUALLY ONLY PERMITTED IN INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICTS.
ALRIGHT, THANK YOU COMMISSIONER SIPES.
THANK YOU MR. CHAIR FOR THE APPLICANT? NO, YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S GONNA BE FOR STAFF.
SO FOR STAFF, THIS ISN'T A HUNDRED YEAR FLOOD ZONE.
ARE THERE ANY REQUIREMENTS ARE AS FAR AS RUNOFF, CONTAINMENT, ANYTHING OF THAT SORT LIKE WE DO OVER THE RECHARGE ZONE THAT WOULD ALL BE OBSERVED DURING TECHNICAL REVIEW? DEPENDING ON THE PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION, IF ANY.
HOWEVER, THEY HAVE STATED THAT NO NEW CONSTRUCTION WOULD BE PERMITTED EVEN IF THEY DID
[00:40:01]
APPLY FOR PERMITS.AND WHEN HE'S SAYING THEY, HE MEANS THE, UH, STORM WATER DIVISION OF PUBLIC WORKS THAT OVERVIEWS ANYTHING THAT'S WITHIN THESE FLOODPLAINS.
SO THE PROPOSED USE WILL NOT TRIGGER THAT IT'S JUST FOR STORAGE FOR THE ACTUAL IF THEY PULL PERMITS CORRECT.
TO BUILD ANY BUILDINGS OR PUT DOWN, UM, SITE WORK.
UM, LAST GO AROUND FOR QUESTIONS TO MY RIGHT.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER CHASE SEEING NONE TO MY LEFT.
COMMISSIONER, WHAT'S IT, SO IF I UNDERSTAND THE CD AND THE C TWO, IF HE QUITS THIS USE AND HE VACATES THE PROPERTY AND SOLD THE PROPERTY, UM, THE C TWO WOULD EXIST AND YOU COULD DO ANYTHING ON C TWO WITHOUT, AS LONG AS IT FELL WITHIN THE C TWO, CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT.
WHILE BEING CURRENTLY IN THE FLOOD PLAIN, UNLESS THAT GETS REDRAWN AT ANY POINT, NO NEW BUILDINGS WILL BE PERMITTED.
SO THERE IS SOME THEORETICAL PROTECTION THERE.
SO IT'S LIMITED KIND OF TO WHAT THE PROPOSED USES ARE HERE.
ALRIGHT, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS ON MY LEFT? I DO HAVE A QUESTION.
DID DID THE PROPERTY CHANGE INTO A FLAT AREA, UH, IN THE LAST 10 YEARS OR, I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE, UH, I MEAN HE COULD OPEN ALMOST A GARAGE AND THE OIL BUSINESS AND LIGHT TRUCK, UH, MAINTENANCE AND ALL THAT, BUT BEING IN THE FLAT ZONE, HE COULD NOT BUILD ANY PROPERTY.
I MEAN, SO SOMETHING MUST HAVE CHANGED IN THAT AREA.
I THINK FROM A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE, THE, THERE WAS A CHANGE IN THE FLOODPLAIN AREA THROUGH ATLAS 14.
WE, WE CAN'T SPEAK TO WHAT THOSE CHANGES ARE, BUT THEY ARE REFLECTED ON OUR, UM, ONE STOP MAP AND ON, UM, THE, THE, UM, FLOODPLAIN MAPS BY FEMA.
UM, BUT STORM WATER WOULD BE THE RESPONSIBLE PARTY TO REVIEW ANY APPLICATION THAT IS SUBMITTED AND BASED OFF OF WHAT THEY HAVE SUBMITTED, WHETHER IT'S A DRIVEWAY A, UM, A PARKING LOT, A FENCE THEY WILL BE REVIEWING FOR THAT TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? ALRIGHT, THAT'S IT THEN.
UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT THREE CASE COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA TO YOU FOR DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION.
UM, WE ALWAYS LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE DIFFICULT CASES, BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY QUITE EASY, AT LEAST FOR ME.
SO, UM, FOR US, I, I'VE TALKED TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION AND THE NEIGHBORS AND, UM, YOU KNOW, FEAR OF IT KIND OF BEING JUST A DUMP GROUND.
THERE'S THAT CREEK RIGHT NEXT DOOR THAT THERE COULD BE POTENTIAL RUNOFF.
UM, THEY BEL UH, THE NEIGHBORS ASSOCIATION JUST BELIEVES THAT IT'S NOT A CONDUCIVE ZONING FOR THAT AREA.
UH, AND I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR DENIAL OF THE APPLICATION.
SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLUM.
UH, MOTION IS FOR DENIAL BY COMMISSIONER HINO HOSA WITH THE SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLUM.
COMMISSIONER CHASE DISCUSSION TO MY LEFT.
UM, YES, I THINK AT THE END OF THE DAY, I, I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA.
IT'S AT THE END OF A RESIDENTIAL USE.
UM, THE FACT THAT IT'S A DEAD END, UH, ACTUALLY IN MY MIND MAKES IT WORSE, UH, BECAUSE IT PUTS A FAIRLY HIGH INTENSITY, UH, COMMERCIAL USE AT THE END OF A STREET WITH ALL RESIDENCES.
SO THAT BEING SAID, THE MOTION IS FOR DENIAL BY COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLUM.
UH, AGAIN, THIS IS A RECOMMENDING BODY, WHICH MEANS WE ARE NOT THE FINAL WORD.
CITY COUNCIL IS, UH, IF YOU WANT TO PROCEED, UH, WITH THIS CASE, YOU CAN TAKE IT TO CITY COUNCIL IN THE NEXT SIX MONTHS.
ALRIGHT, WE'RE NOW GONNA MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER SEVEN.
[00:45:03]
ITEM NUMBER SEVEN IS LOCATED AT 1511 BURNETT STREET.GOING FROM R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY TO RM FOUR RESIDENTIAL MIX DISTRICT.
THERE WERE 45 NOTICES AND OUT ZERO IN FAVOR, ZERO OPPOSE.
THE HARVARD, HARVARD PLACE EAST LAWN NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS OPPOSED.
STAFF DOES NOT FIND LIKELY EVIDENCE OF ADVERSE IMPACTS ON THE NEIGHBORING LANDS.
IN RELATION TO THE CHANGES ZONING REQUEST.
THE PROPOSED USE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN IN THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE EXISTING R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA.
THE PROPOSED RM FOUR RESIDENTIAL MIXED DISTRICT IS ALSO APPROPRIATE.
THERE ARE MULTIFAMILY ZONE PROPERTIES TO THE NORTHEAST, WEST, AND SOUTH OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY ALLOW FOR HIGHER DENSITIES WITHIN PROXIMITY.
ADDITIONALLY, THE PROPERTY IS APPROPRIATELY LOCATED NEAR THE NEAR EAST PREMIUM TRANSIT CORRIDOR, PROVIDING EASILY ACCESSIBLE PUBLIC TRANSIT.
THE PROPOSED ZONING IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS OF THE STRATEGIC HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, WHICH ENCOURAGES THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVE HOUSING TYPES TO ACCOMMODATE DISEASE GROWING POPULATION AT ALL IN CLIMATE LEVELS.
THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
ALRIGHT, IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE.
AND SIR, IF YOU WOULD GIVE US YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS.
UH, HELLO, MY NAME'S ALEX CRUZ, UH, WITH 2 0 2 RIGSBY AVENUE.
UM, SO, UH, YEAH, WE'RE BASICALLY TRYING TO REZONE, UH, THIS PROPERTY, TRY TO CONVERT IT INTO A DUPLEX IT BORDERS, UH, BETWEEN BURNETT AND BLAINE.
UH, IN THE MONTH OF MAY, WE TRY TO REACH OUT TO THE HOA TO TRY TO LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THE, UH, THE ZONING.
UM, WE WEREN'T ABLE TO SET UP A MEETING WITH THEM.
THEY, UH, I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WERE KIND OF LIKE LIMITED ON TIME.
UH, WE TRIED VIRTUALLY, UM, BUT THEY GAVE US A DATE ALL THE WAY UP UNTIL LIKE MID-AUGUST TO MEET, UM, ABOUT THE PLANS.
AND, UH, ASIDE FROM THAT, WE'RE REALLY JUST TRYING TO GET, UM, THIS CONVERTED INTO, UH, A DUPLEX WHERE WE CAN JUST PROVIDE MORE HOUSING.
UH, ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? NO PUBLIC COMMENT.
UH, THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE, COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS, UH, A MR. CRUZ, IF YOU WOULD.
UH, SO YOU MENTIONED TURNING THIS INTO A DUPLEX.
FROM THE CURRENT PHOTOS THAT WE'VE SEEN, IT LOOKS LIKE THE PROPERTY IS IN POOR CONDITION.
ARE YOU PLANNING ON DEMOING THE CURRENT PROPERTY? HAVE YOU GONE THROUGH THE HP PROCESS FOR THAT? WHAT IS YOUR PLAN IN TERMS OF BUILDING THIS DUPLEX? UH, NO.
WE ARE GONNA BE, UH, REHABILITATING THE, THE WHOLE ALL OF THE PROPERTY AND, UH, TRY TO SALVAGE AS MOST AS WE CAN FROM IT.
SO IT WOULD BE, UM, AN ADDITION THAT WOULD BE DONE TO THE BACK, NOT THE CONSTRUCTION.
SO YOU'RE REPURPOSING, YOUR INTENTION IS TO REPURPOSE THE, THE EXISTING STRUCTURE? YES.
UM, HOW MANY, SO YOU'RE DOING TWO UNITS TOTAL IS, AND IT'S GONNA BE AN ATTACHED UNIT IT SOUNDS LIKE? YES, IT WOULD BE ATTACHED UP WITH THE SHARED WALL.
ARE YOU PLANNING ON HOLDING THE PROPERTY AND MAKING IT AVAILABLE FOR RENT OR ARE YOU PLANNING ON SELLING THE DUPLEXES? UH, NO, IT WOULD BE, UH, TO HOLD ONTO THE PROPERTY.
UM, THE OTHER, UH, QUESTIONS I WANNA ASK PERTAIN TO COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT.
HAVE YOU DONE ANY BLOCK WALKING WITHIN 200 FEET? UH, NO, WE HAVE NOT.
SO, UM, IN COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY DID RESPOND TO YOUR REQUEST FOR A MEETING.
SO WE WERE TRYING TO COORDINATE A MEETING, UH, WITH THEM AND THEN WE WERE HAVING A, SHE, UH, SHE WAS IN COMMUNICATION WITH OUR ASSISTANT.
UM, AND THEN COME ON, I THINK SHE DIDN'T GIVE US A NOTIFICATION UNTIL SATURDAY AFTERNOON, BUT OUR ASSISTANT UNFORTUNATELY DIDN'T WORK, UM, DOESN'T WORK ON WEEKENDS.
UH, WHEN WE TRIED TO MAKE CONTACT AGAIN ON MONDAY, UM, THEY LET US KNOW THAT THEY WEREN'T, UH, WILLING TO MEET WITH US UNTIL, UNTIL AUGUST.
AND THIS WAS BACK IN MAY 15TH.
WAS THERE EVER A MEETING SCHEDULED VIA ZOOM OR VIRTUALLY FOR A SATURDAY MORNING? UH, WE DIDN'T GET NOTIFICATION OR A CONFIRMATION ON THAT MEETING TILL SATURDAY AFTERNOON.
UH, WERE YOU PLANNING TO HOST THE MEETING OR WAS THE NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING TO HOST THE MEETING? UH, THEY WERE GONNA HOST IT.
UH, THE WAY THAT THEY SHARED THIS INFORMATION WITH ME WAS THAT YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO HOST THE MEETING AND THAT THEN YOU DID NOT SHOW UP AND WERE NOT RESPONSIVE AFTER THAT MEETING GOT CANCELED, WHICH IS CONCERNING TO ME.
UM, I DON'T, UH, WE, WE ARE PRETTY, THEY'RE A PRETTY RESPONSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
UM, SO WHEN THEY SAY THAT THERE WAS A SITUATION HANDLED THAT WAY AND YOU HAVEN'T DONE ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY OUTREACH, THAT'S A CONCERN FOR ME.
UM, IS THERE SOME SORT OF TIME LIMITATION THAT IS FORCING YOU TO TRY TO MOVE FORWARD NOW OR DO YOU HAVE ANY, ANY CHALLENGES? UH, WAITING TILL AUGUST? UH, WELL THE, THE, THE PROPERTY IS VACANT RIGHT NOW AND WITH A LOT OF TRESPASSING ISSUES, UH, WE'VE JUST BEEN HAVING A LOT OF, UH, BREAK-INS IN, IN, UH, MOST OF THE PROPERTIES THAT WE HAVE IN THE AREA.
AND WITH THIS ONE BEING VACANT CLOSE TO, UM, YOU KNOW, CLOSE TO BUSY STREETS, UH, IT'S JUST, JUST A LOT OF TRAFFIC THAT OKAY.
SO DELAYING 60 DAYS, TWO MONTHS POTENTIALLY.
I MEAN, I, WE HAVE JULY WHILE COUNCIL'S OUT OF SESSION, THERE STILL IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO A JULY
[00:50:01]
NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION MEETING.THE WHOLE MONTH IS AHEAD OF US.
DO YOU FEEL LIKE THAT'S GOING TO CHANGE THE LEVEL OF TRESPASSING OR TRAFFIC BASED ON YOUR CONSTRUCTION TIMELINE? UH, WELL THEY'RE ASKING NOT TO MEET UNTIL MIDGUT RIGHT NOW, SO.
UM, NO FURTHER QUESTIONS FROM ME.
THANKS FOR CLARIFYING YOUR PERSPECTIVE ON THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROCESS, UM, AND SHARING A LITTLE MORE ABOUT YOUR PROJECT.
I'LL OPEN IT UP TO MY OTHER COMMISSIONERS.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONERS TO MY LEFT QUESTIONS, UH, COMMISSIONER CHASE QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS TO MY RIGHT QUESTIONS.
UM, I DO HAVE A QUESTION FOR STAFF.
WHEN IS, UM, THE, WHEN WOULD THIS GO TO CITY COUNCIL? IF IT WERE, IF ACTION WERE TAKEN TODAY, IF ACTION WAS TAKEN TODAY, IT WOULD GO TO CITY COUNCIL AUGUST 16TH OR, I'M SORRY, AUGUST 21ST.
AND IF ACTION WERE TAKEN AT THE NEXT MEETING, UH, STILL AUGUST 21ST ALL SO BOTH MEETINGS THAT CITY OR UM, ZONING COMMISSION IS REVIEWING IN JULY WILL BE HEARD ON AUGUST 21ST.
UM, THE NEXT MEETING AFTER THAT I BELIEVE WOULD BE SEPTEMBER 4TH.
UH, QUESTIONS AGAIN SECOND ROUND? ANYONE SEEING NONE? COMMISSIONER CHASE? SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER TO MY RIGHT.
ALRIGHT, DISTRICT TWO, CASE COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION.
OKAY, SO, UM, IT IS UH, A REQUEST FOR AN R FOUR TO AN RM FOUR TO DO A DUPLEX.
UM, I WISH THERE WAS A MORE DETAILED PRESENTATION AVAILABLE, BUT I DO APPRECIATE YOU ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS AND I DO SEE, UM, POTENTIAL, UH, BLENDING IN WITH THE AREA TO AN EXTENT.
UM, BUT THE LACK OF PREPARATION AND, UH, PROACTIVE OR TRANSPARENT, UH, COMMUNICATION WITH THE COMMUNITY CONCERNS ME.
I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU MAKE AN EFFORT TO DO ANY BLOCK WALKING 200 FEET AND YOU'VE COME THROUGH WITH US BEFORE AND SOMETHING WE'VE ENCOURAGED.
UM, AND WHEN I HEAR FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION THAT THEY WERE DISRESPECTED IN THE PROCESS OF, UH, TRYING TO SCHEDULE A MEETING, UM, THAT THE DATE THAT WAS REQUESTED WAS FOR THE VIRTUAL MEETING ON A SATURDAY WAS OFFERED BY YOU AND THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO HOST IT AND THEN YOU ARE A NO-SHOW, UH, THAT'S A CONCERN FOR ME.
UH, AND SO, UH, BASED ON THE FACT THAT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER WE, UH, MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS TODAY OR WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS IN TWO WEEKS, UM, THIS GOING TO, UH, COUNCIL ON AUGUST 21ST, WHICH WOULD ALLOW YOU TIME TO MEET WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, UM, FOR THEIR MID-AUGUST MEETING.
I'M GONNA MAKE A MOTION FOR A CONTINUANCE FOR TWO WEEKS.
UM, IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT YOUR COUNCIL DATE, UM, IF YOU, BUT I JUST WANNA CONFIRM THAT DURING THAT TWO WEEK TIME YOU HAVE CORRESPONDENCE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, YOU CONFIRM ATTENDANCE AT THAT MEETING.
MS. MILLER REQUIRES THAT YOU GET ON YOUR HER AGENDA IN ADVANCE AND THAT THAT'S DOCUMENTED.
UM, I FEEL THAT'S IMPORTANT TO BUILD TRUST WITH THE COMMUNITY AND I KNOW IT'S SOMETHING THE COUNCILMAN'S GONNA WANNA SEE, UM, BEFORE IT GOES TO COUNCIL AND IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT YOUR TIMELINE.
SO, UH, ALL THAT CONSIDERED, I MAKE A MOTION TO CONTINUE FOR TWO WEEKS.
MY REQUEST TO YOU IS TO PLEASE CC ME ON YOUR COMMUNICATIONS WITH MS. MILLER AND MAKE SURE YOU GET UNDER HER AGENDA FOR THAT AUGUST MEETING.
ALRIGHT, IS THERE A SECOND? SECOND.
THERE IS A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WITT FOR A CONTINUANCE FOR TWO WEEKS.
SEEING NONE, COMMISSIONER CHASE.
COMMISSIONER HINOJOSA, UH, CHAIR, I DO HAVE A QUESTION.
I I THINK HE HAD MENTIONED, I KNOW A LOT OF NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS TAKE JULY OFF.
HE HAD MENTIONED, UH, I THINK THEY WENT TO MEET WITH HIM IN AUGUST.
SO IF WE DO A TWO WEEK CONTINUANCE, WOULDN'T IT NOT JUST BE THE SAME OUTCOME? UH, MY UH, CONCERN IS BASED ON THE LETTER THAT I RECEIVED FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
THERE WAS UM, ACTIVE ATTEMPTS TO ENGAGE WITH THEM.
THE MEETING WAS SCHEDULED AND WAS ADJUSTED TO VIRTUAL AT THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST AND THEN THE APPLICANT WAS SUPPOSED TO HOST IT AND WAS A NO-SHOW.
AND SO I JUST WANT THE UH, CONFIRMATION IN WRITING THAT THEY'VE DONE PROACTIVE OUTREACH AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION FEELS LIKE THEY CAN WORK WITH THE APPLICANT AND I THINK IT SHOULDN'T AFFECT THE TIMELINE, BUT I JUST WANNA HAVE THOSE TWO WEEKS TO MAKE SURE WE GET THAT IN WRITING.
OKAY, ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALRIGHT, I WILL SUPPORT THE MOTION.
IF IT WERE A LONGER CONTINUANCE, I MAY NOT SUPPORT IT, BUT BECAUSE IT'S TWO WEEKS BECAUSE IT WILL NOT IMPACT THE CITY COUNCIL DATE.
YOU KNOW, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE PICTURE ON GOOGLE MAPS, UH, WE CAN SEE WHEN THIS PROPERTY WAS INHABITED.
UH, WE LOOK AT THE PICTURES ON THE ZONING APPLICATION AND WE CAN SEE THAT THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN SOME FIRE DAMAGE HERE.
SO THE CONCERN ABOUT, YOU KNOW, TRESPASSING, SQUATTING, DAMAGE TO THE HOME IS LEGITIMATE.
UH, I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT.
BUT MR. CRUZ, UH, YOU KNOW, REACH OUT TO THAT NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, UH, COPY COMMISSIONER WATSON AND WALK THAT WALK YOUR NEIGHBORS.
UM, YOU KNOW, I THINK THEY WILL UNDERSTAND THE DANGER OF HAVING A VACANT PROPERTY THERE AND SO I THINK THEY WILL BE ALL EARS WHEN YOU GO BY.
ALRIGHT, THERE BEING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, THE MOTION IS FOR A TWO WEEK CONTINUANCE TO THE JULY 15TH MEETING BY COMMISSIONER WATSON WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER TSET ROLL CALL.
[00:55:01]
PLEASE.ALRIGHT, IF WE COULD HAVE UH, ITEM NUMBER EIGHT PLEASE.
ITEM NUMBER EIGHT IS LOCATED AT LONE OAK AVENUE.
I'M SORRY, I FORGOT THE ADDRESS HERE.
1602 LONE OAK AVENUE GOING FROM R FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT TO R FOUR CD RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR TWO DWELLING UNITS.
THERE WERE 38 NOTICES AND DOUBTED ZERO IN FAVOR.
OPPOSE THE ARTISIA GUILD NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS OPPOSED AND GREATER FAITH INSTITUTIONAL CHURCH COMMUNITY NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION WATCH DID NOT PROVIDE A RESPONSE.
SEP DOES NOT FIND EVIDENCE OF LIKE ADVERSE IMPACTS ON THE NEIGHBOR AND LANDS IN RELATION TO THE EXCHANGE ZONING REQUESTS.
THE PROPOSED IS PROPOSED USES CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE R FOUR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT.
THE EXISTING R FOUR SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE PROPERTY AND SURROUNDING AREA.
THE PROPOSED R FOUR CD RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT FOR TWO UNITS IS ALSO APPROPRIATE.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS LOCATE LOCATED WITHIN PROXIMITY TO EXISTING RESIDENTIAL BASED ZONE DISTRICT.
THE CONDITIONAL USE REQUIRES A PRESCRIBED STIP PLAN THAT CANNOT BE CHANGED WITHOUT FURTHER PUBLIC REVIEW.
THE PROPOSED ZONING IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE GOALS OF THE STRATEGIC HOUSING IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, WHICH ENCOURAGES THE DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVE HOUSING TYPES TO ACCOMMODATE THE CITY'S GROWING POPULATION AT ALL INCOME LEVELS.
ADDITIONALLY, PROPERTY IS A CORNER LOT KEEPING TRAFFIC, ENCOURAGING IT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO A MINIMUM AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
IF THE APPLICANT CAN COME FORWARD PLEASE AND IF YOU WOULD PLEASE GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.
SO I'M, I'M BONNIE DAVIS BIGGS, I'M THE PROPERTY MANAGER FOR THE PROPERTY.
AND THEN THIS IS JESSICA, SHE'S THE OWNER.
I SAID HER AS MY REPRESENTATIVE.
OKAY, I SORRY I COULDN'T HEAR YOU.
I SAY I JUST SENT HER AS MY REPRESENTATIVE.
ALRIGHT, SO MS. DAVIS BATES THEN YOU WILL DO THE PRESENTATION.
SO, UM, THIS PROPERTY WAS PURCHASED UM, BY MS. JESSICA AS AN INVESTMENT PROPERTY AND IT WAS ADVERTISED AS IT BEING TWO DWELLING UNITS.
WE DID NOT REALIZE THAT THERE WOULD BE AN ISSUE WHEN SHE PURCHASED IT IN RENTING THE FRONT UNIT AND THE PREVIEW OF THE BACK TENANT JUST WANTED A MAILBOX.
SO WE WERE JUST TRYING TO GET HER A MAILBOX
SO REALLY THAT'S KIND OF WHAT STARTED THIS WHOLE THING AND WE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT WE WERE NOT IN THE CORRECT ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY AND HOW IT WAS PURCHASED.
UM, BOTH UNITS ARE CURRENTLY INDIVIDUALLY RENTED, UM, BUT WE'RE HAPPY TO DO WHATEVER WE NEED TO DO TO BE COMPLIANT
UH, JUST BECAUSE WE HADN'T ENGAGED UH, BEFORE THIS AND THERE'S SOME OPPOSITION, I PULLED THIS TO INDIVIDUAL.
UM, SINCE THE OPPOSITION IS BOTH SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS AND FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, UM, I APPRECIATE YOU SHARING THE BACKGROUND.
IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS WAS TRIGGERED MERELY AS A COMPLIANCE ISSUE, UH, TO CONFIRM THE PLAN IS TO CONTINUE TO USE THE PROPERTY AS IT HAS BEEN.
UM, CAN YOU PLEASE SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ANY UH, COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS YOU'VE MADE TO SHARE NEWS ABOUT THE REZONING REQUEST, UH, WITH THE NEIGHBORS IN THE 200 FOOT NOTICE AREA OR THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION? I'LL BE HONEST, I DID NOT KNOW THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD DO.
SO IF WE NEED TO DO THAT, WE CAN DEFINITELY DO THAT.
UM, BUT THAT I KNOW OTHER THAN THE EMAIL, I THINK MISS JESSICA RECEIVED ONE, ONE EMAIL.
WE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT WE NEEDED TO GO DOOR KNOCKING BUT
UM, I APPRECIATE YOU SHARING THAT.
UM, HOW LONG HAS THE PROPERTY WOULD YOU SAY BEEN USED AS TWO RENTAL UNITS BASED ON EITHER INFORMATION OR REALTOR SHARED OR JUST ADDITIONAL THINGS? I WAS ACTUALLY A PART OF THE TRANSACTION, SO I FEEL ESPECIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR
BUT, UM, SO THE PREVIOUS OWNER LIVED THERE FOR I THINK THREE YEARS AND HE LIVED IN THE FRONT UNIT AND THE BACK UNIT HAS BEEN RENTED THAT ENTIRE TIME BY THE SAME TENANT.
UM, SO WHEN HE MOVED DOWN AND THEY PURCHASED THE PROPERTY, WE JUST PUT A NEW TENANT INTO THE FRONT UNIT.
UM, SO IT HAS HAD TWO SEPARATE PEOPLE LIVING IN IT THIS ENTIRE TIME, BUT I UNDERSTAND WHEN I READ THE, THE ZONING BECAUSE HE WAS THE OWNER THAT WAS ACCEPTABLE AND NOW THAT WE PUT AN INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENT PERSON IN THERE, THAT'S THE PROBLEM.
AND YOU ARE, UH, I AS A PROPERTY MANAGER, I ASSUME FAMILIAR WITH SHORT TERM RENTAL ORDINANCE AND THE CONSTRUCTION? YES.
UM, AGAIN, IT'S NOT TECHNICALLY UNDER OUR PURVIEW, BUT JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THERE'S AWARENESS, UM, THAT THAT'S NOT REALLY AN OPTION WITHOUT A PERMITTING PROCESS.
UM, I HATE SHORT TERM RENTALS.
NO PROBLEMS
UM, I HAVE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.
[01:00:01]
PUBLIC COMMENT? NO PUBLIC COMMENT.ALRIGHT, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS ON MY LEFT? YES.
COMMISSIONER, WHAT'S THAT? IS IT, UH, SEPARATELY METERED FOR EACH OF THE UNITS THAT WE WERE ATTEMPTING TO GET IT SEPARATELY METERED AND THAT'S KIND OF ALSO WHAT TRIGGERED THE PROBLEM.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMERS ON MY LEFT.
ALRIGHT, COMMISSIONER ON MY RIGHT.
ALRIGHT, UH, NO QUESTIONS FROM ME.
COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR DISCUSSION AND POTENTIAL MOTION.
UH, BASED ON THE HISTORICAL USE OF THIS PROPERTY AND THIS BEING A COMPLIANCE REQUEST AND AWARENESS OF THE RELATED RESTRICTIONS AND CONCERNS IN TERMS OF PRESERVING LIKE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND RENTALS, UM, IN THE, THE EXISTING MARKET, I FEEL COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS, UM, TODAY.
SO I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL, UH, SINCE YOU HAVE TILL AUGUST 21ST WHEN THIS GOES TO COUNCIL, UM, THE COUNCILMAN IS GONNA WANNA SEE NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPORT COURT, SO MAKE SURE YOU DO SOME BLOCK WALKING.
UM, IF YOU HAVEN'T DIRECTLY CONTACTED THOSE THREE NEIGHBORS NEXT DOOR TO YOU THAT ARE THE OPPOSITION THAT WE'VE GOTTEN, MY GUESS IS THAT THEY PROBABLY AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH WHAT THE REQUEST IS FOR, UM, THAT THERE'S BEEN A CHANGE IN THE OWNER OR, OR THE STATUS.
AND SO I THINK JUST EXPLAINING, YOU KNOW, THAT IT'S BASICALLY NOTHING'S GONNA CHANGE.
IT'S NOT A DUPLEX OR SOMETHING GOING IN, ET CETERA.
WE'LL PROBABLY ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS.
UM, AND I WILL CONNECT YOU WITH THE, THE COUNCIL, UH, STAFF MEMBER WHO CAN MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET IN TOUCH WITH THAT NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
UM, YOU HAVE A LITTLE TIME, UH, SOMETIMES THOSE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS CAN BE A LITTLE BIT HARD TO GET IN TOUCH WITH.
UM, BUT DEFINITELY WORK WITH THE COUNCIL STAFF.
UM, I'M GONNA, I KNOW THAT'S GONNA BE PART OF, OF COUNCILMAN'S CONSIDERATION, BUT MAKING SURE YOU, YOU WORK WITH THEM AND DOCUMENT ANY ATTEMPTS TO, TO ENGAGE WITH THEM BETWEEN NOW AND WHEN YOU GO TO COUNCIL IS, IS MY RECOMMENDATION.
WITH THAT, I'LL, UH, IS THERE A WAY THAT I CAN GET THE ADDRESSES OF THOSE? YES.
YOU CAN WORK WITH YOUR, YEAH, YOUR, YOUR CASE MANAGER.
THERE IS A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER EIGHT.
THERE IS A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLUM.
THE MOTION IS FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM NUMBER EIGHT BY COMMISSIONER WATSON WITH THE SECOND BY COMMISSIONER KELLUM.
UH, YOU'LL GO ON THE CITY COUNCIL.
PLEASE UH, REACH OUT TO YOUR NEIGHBOR, REACH OUT TO YOUR NEIGHBORS, AND, UH, GOOD LUCK.
ALRIGHT, UH, ITEM NUMBER NINE.
MY NAME IS SAMANTHA BETA, ZONING PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER NINE IS LOCATED AT 4 2 2 HEARTLINE DRIVE GOING FROM R FIVE RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT AND C3 AND A GENERAL COMMERCIAL NON-ALCOHOLIC SALES DISTRICT TO C TWO AND A CD COMMERCIAL NON-ALCOHOLIC SALES DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR OVERSIZED VEHICLE SERVICE AND STORAGE.
WITH ALL OVERLAY STAYING THE SAME.
THERE WERE 39 NOTICES, MAILED AID IN FAVOR, THREE OPPOSED.
AND THERE ARE NO REGISTERED NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS WITHIN 200 FEET.
THE PROPOSED USE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE ZONED MF 33, MULTIFAMILY DISTRICT, R FIVE, RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY, AND C3 AND A GENERAL COMMERCIAL NON-ALCOHOLIC SALES DISTRICT.
THE EXISTING R FIVE IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THE PROPERTY IN THE SURROUNDING AREA.
HOWEVER, THE EXISTING C3 AND A IS NOT APPROPRIATE.
THE PROPOSED C TWO AND A CD WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR OVERSIZED VEHICLE SERVICE AND STORAGE IS ALSO NOT APPROPRIATE.
THE REQUEST TO REZONE IS TO UNIFORMLY ZONE THE PROPERTY AND CONTINUE TO MECHANICALLY SERVICE AND STORE OVERSIZED VEHICLES BY THE CURRENT TENANTS.
THOUGH THE REQUEST IS A DOWN ZONE FROM THE CURRENT C3 AND A DESIGNATION C TWO AND A STILL EXCEEDS THE INTENSITY SUGGESTED FOR THE AREA WITHIN THE SAN ANTONIO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT VICINITY LAND USE PLAN.
ADDITIONALLY, COMMON LAND USE PRINCIPLES RECOMMEND THE COMMER THAT COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL USES BE KEPT ALONG THE MAIN ARTERIALS AS TO NOT FURTHER CONGEST LOCAL STREETS AND NOT IN PROXIMITY TO RESIDENTIAL ZONES WITHOUT APPROPRIATE BUFFERS BEING LOCATED ALONG A LOCAL STREET WITHIN AN EXISTING RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.
STAFF FINDS THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE LOCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS TO ACCOMMODATE THE PROPOSED USE.
STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS APPROVAL FOR COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL AND THE APPLICANT IS PRESENT TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
UH, IF WE COULD HAVE THE APPLICANT PLEASE.
[01:05:01]
ADDRESS PLEASE.THIS IS MY FATHER ARNOLD URIBE.
UH, AND THE ADDRESS IS 4 2 2 HEARTLINE DRIVE.
SO, UM, THANK YOU FOR, UH, HAVING US BACK.
WE, UM, HAVE TAKEN ALL THE RECOMMENDATIONS, UH, THAT WERE GIVEN TO US THIS LAST TIME THAT WE CAME THROUGH.
WE'VE TAKEN ACTION TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT IS ALL CLEANED UP AND LIKE I SAID LAST TIME, AND I, I, I GUESS I, I WISH I WOULD'VE TAKEN SOME UPDATED PICTURES, BUT, UM, UH, YOU KNOW, INITIALLY, UH, THE USE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE MUCH LIGHTER, BUT THE, THE HEAVIER USE THERE IS, UH, THE COMPANY THAT WAS HIRED BY THE CITY OF THE SAN ANTONIO ZAMORA PROJECT, WHICH THEY WERE THE ONES THAT WERE, UH, SORT OF MORE APTLY PUT ON NOTICE TO, UH, CLEAN UP AND, AND NOT HAVE SUCH AN AGGRESSIVE USE OF, UH, OF THE SPACE.
BUT, UM, REALLY INITIALLY WERE HERE BECAUSE, UM, COMPLAINTS WERE PUT IN, UH, BEFORE THE INSPECTOR HAD VISUALLY NOTICED ANYTHING THAT WAS AT HAND AND IT WAS THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT WERE PHONED IN OR, OR HOWEVER THEY'RE PLACED.
THAT, UM, TOOK ACTION FOR THE INSPECTOR TO LOOK INTO IT A LITTLE BIT FURTHER.
UM, THE CURRENT ZONING, UM, INITIALLY IS, OR WHAT WE WANT THE PROPERTY TO BE USED FOR IS THE ACTUAL TENANT WHO'S THERE LONG TERM AS OPPOSED TO THE MONTH TO MONTH, UH, USAGE THAT'S THERE BY THE, UH, THE COMPANY THAT'S WORKING ON THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT AT ZAMORA.
UH, HE'S A MECHANIC, BUT HE DOES WORK ON OVERSIZED VEHICLES RIGHT NOW WITH THE C3 THERE WAS A SORT OF LIGHT MECHANIC USE AND WE THOUGHT THOSE MI MIGHT ALIGN.
AND SO THAT IS WHERE WE FEEL LIKE, UM, IT IS NOT FAR FROM WHAT WE NEED IT TO BE.
UM, SINCE THE LAST TIME WE WERE IN, WE DID, UM, GO TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET SIGNATURES IN APPROVAL AND AGAIN, GET A LITTLE BIT MORE INFORMATION OF HOW IT WAS MISREPRESENTED IN THE FIRST PLACE.
THERE WAS SOMEONE SAYING THAT WE WERE SOME SORT OF CONGRESSMAN OR WE WERE BUILDING SOME HUGE FACILITY THAT WAS GONNA RAISE PROPERTY TAXES AND DO ALL KINDS OF STUFF.
SO WITH ALL THAT FALSE INFORMATION, I THINK PEOPLE WERE LED IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION.
UM, AS WE'VE SORT OF MENTIONED BEFORE, AND YOU CAN SEE IN SOME OF THE SORT OF ZOOMED OUT PICTURES THAT THIS TRIANGLE THAT, UH, THIS PROPERTY LIES ON IS ALSO ALREADY VERY INDUSTRIAL.
ALL THIS SURROUNDING PROPERTIES SORT OF FUNCTION IN AN INDUSTRIAL, UM, SORT OF USE AND WITH THE NEIGHBORS BEHIND US, UH, ESSENTIALLY ALL SIGNING FOR APPROVAL AND, UM, THE VERY LARGE FENCE AND UH, UH, TREES AND THINGS THAT WOULD WORK AS A BUFFER.
UM, WE DON'T NECESSARILY FEEL LIKE THIS COULD BE, UH, A PROBLEM IN THE COMMUNITY OR DISRUPT ANYTHING IN THAT KIND OF WAY.
BUT, UM, I MEAN, ULTIMATELY WE'RE HERE TO CONTINUE TO LEARN HOW TO FOLLOW ZONING REGULATIONS, HOW TO BEST SERVICE THE CITY AND ALSO JUST PROTECT THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE, UH, BEFORE THIS, UH, AS I HAD MENTIONED BEFORE, WE HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH, UM, UH, SQUATTERS AND, UH, DRUG USE.
UM, PERSONALLY SORT OF BEING ATTACKED.
UH, THE, UH, YOU KNOW, THE PEOPLE TRYING TO PHYSICALLY ASSAULT US, UH, THAT, THAT FENCE WAS A, A GOOD BARRIER, BUT, UM, WE'RE, YOU KNOW, ALSO CONCERNED THAT IF THIS DOESN'T GET THE APPROPRIATE USE, THAT IT WILL JUST CONTINUE TO BE A POCKET FOR, YOU KNOW, CRIMINAL ACTIVITY AND, AND JUST SORT OF UNSAVORY BEHAVIOR.
UH, ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? THERE IS NO PUBLIC COMMENT.
THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO CASE, SO COMMISSIONER WATSON TO YOU FOR QUESTIONS.
UH, HOW LONG HAVE YOU ALL BEEN THE PROPERTY OWNERS? UH, ABOUT 30 YEARS.
AND HAS SOME SORT OF SIMILAR TYPE OF BUSINESS I MENTIONED, YOU MENTIONED THAT THE, THE BUSINESS CURRENTLY OPERATING IS A TENANT.
UM, AND THEN YOU HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL MONTH TO MONTH, UH, TENANT OR PEOPLE LEASING SERVICE LEASING IT SOUNDS LIKE.
UM, HOW LONG HAS THAT TYPE OF BUSINESS BEEN OPERATING ON THIS SITE? UM, THEY HAVE ONLY BEEN THERE FOR, UH, ABOUT A YEAR.
UM, BEFORE THAT IT WAS VACANT AND THAT'S WHEN WE WERE HAVING ALL THOSE PROBLEMS. WE HAD A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS THAT CAME IN ALLEGING TO BE A CONSTRUCTION COMPANY AND IT ENDED UP BEING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
THEY WERE JUST CAREER CRIMINALS THAT WERE THERE THAT TOOK US TWO YEARS FIGHTING, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO GET THEM PROPERLY EVICTED THEM, CONTINUING TO BREAK IN PROBABLY OVER 15 POLICE CALLS, UH, PHYSICAL INTERACTIONS AND ALL KINDS OF STUFF THAT WAS, UH, YOU KNOW, REALLY DANGEROUS AND UNCOMFORTABLE.
AND BEFORE THAT WE HAD ANOTHER TWO YEARS WHERE WE WEREN'T ABLE TO RENT IT.
AND THEN BEFORE THAT THERE WAS A MECHANIC THAT LEFT THE PROPERTY BECAUSE THEY, THEY SORT OF MECHANIC WORK HAD GOTTEN TOO MESSY AND WE ASKED THEM TO LEAVE BEFORE THAT.
UM, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, IT, IT WASN'T SERVING IN THIS IN A SIMILAR WAY, YOU KNOW, IF I MAY, UH, WHAT REALLY
[01:10:01]
WHAT TRIGGERED THOUGH EVERYTHING, IT'S THE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY THAT'S RENTING THE CORNER LOT, THE CITY.WE HAVE APPROACHED THEM THERE IN THE PROCESS OF CLEANING THE THE THING.
AND UH, THEY'RE, THEY'RE ONLY GONNA BE THERE FOR THE NEXT TWO MONTHS.
HOWEVER, WE REAL REALIZE THEY NEED, THEY NEED TO BE IN COMPLIANCE.
SO THEY'RE TAKING CARE OF, OF EVERYTHING.
AND THE MECHANIC THAT IS THERE, HE'S PRETTY CLEAN.
HE DOESN'T HAVE, YOU KNOW, THE THE MESSY PART IS THE, UH, CONSTRUCTION COMPANY THAT'S WORKING FOR THE CITY AND THE SAR SOMO PROJECT.
AND UH, HOPEFULLY WE CAN HAVE HIM THERE BY THE END OF, UH, THE FIRST, THE FIRST WEEK OF, UH, THE FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER.
THAT WAS GONNA BE MY FOLLOW UP QUESTION IS HOW LONG YOU WERE CONTINUING TO YEAH, NO, BUT WITH THEM ON NOW, THEY'RE, THEY'RE MOVING EVERYTHING.
THEY'RE, WE'VE BEEN APPROACHED, WE WERE THERE YESTERDAY WITH ANOTHER INSPECTOR FROM THE CITY, THEIR SUPERVISOR AND, UH, WE WENT THROUGH EVERYTHING AND, AND THEY'RE, THEY'RE GONNA PUT THEIR, THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND HOPEFULLY GET IT THERE.
'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT TRIGGERED NOT THE MECHANIC ITSELF.
