PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING TO ORDER.
WOULD STAFF PLEASE DO A ROLL CALL? COMMISSIONER SANCHEZ PRESENT.
COMMISSIONER WALLER INSTEAD? HERE.
CAN WE GET THE SPANISH ENGLISH INTERPRETER PLEASE? GOOD AFTERNOON.
[Plats ]
TODAY WE'RE GONNA HAVE TWO AGENDAS.OUR FIRST CONGEN, OUR FIRST AGENDA IS THE COMBINED HEARING AGENDA.
CASES ON THE COMBINED HEARING AGENDA ARE CASES WHERE STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.
PLANNING COMMISSION DOES NOT REQUIRE FURTHER DETAILED DISCUSSION, AND NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE TO SIGN UP TO SPEAK ON THE ITEM.
ALL CASES WILL BE READ INTO THE RECORD IN ONE UNIFIED MOTION.
IF SOMEONE TO SIGN UP TO SPEAK TO ITEM WILL BE MOVED TO INDIVIDUAL HEARING AGENDA.
OTHER AGENDA IS THE INDIVIDUAL HEARING AGENDA.
CASES ON THE INDIVIDUAL HEARING AGENDA WILL BE HEARD INDIVIDUALLY BEFORE THE COMMISSION TAKES ANY ACTION.
UM, RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ON INDIVIDUAL HEARING AGENDA IS ITEMS 12, 13, 14, AND 16? THAT IS CORRECT.
UM, WE DO HAVE SOME PEOPLE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON SOME OF THE PLATS.
UM, SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE YOU, UH, ADDRESS THE COMMISSION PRIOR TO THE COMMISSION, UH, TAKING ACTION ON THE CONSENT AGENDA.
BUT I WILL REMIND EVERYBODY THAT STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT IF THE PLATS, UH, MEET THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE AND DO NOT HAVE ANY VARIANCES, THE COMMISSION IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THEM.
SO I'M GONNA ASK STAFF ON, ON, UH, ITEMS ONE, SEVEN AND TWO IF THOSE PLATS MEET THE CODE FIRST AND DO NOT HAVE ANY VARIANCES.
ALRIGHT, WE'RE GONNA HAVE COMMISSIONER BUS DE MONTE RECUSE HIMSELF HIMSELF.
IT'S 2 0 6 AND HE HAS LEFT THE MEETING.
FIRST PERSON SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON ITEM NUMBER ONE IS EUGENE VEGA.
STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
HELLO, MY NAME IS EUGENE VEGA, AND I LIVE AT 1 1 6 1 TRUMBO TRUMBO TRAIL.
AND THAT IS ON THE CORNER OF WHAT THEY'RE, WHERE THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT REPLANTING.
THAT'S TRUMBO ROAD AND TRUMBO TRAIL.
AND I'D LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE FOR COMING.
I WILL START BY THANKING GOD FOR BLESSING TEXAS AND THE GREAT HERITAGE OF SAN ANTONIO.
TEXAS IS KNOWN FOR BEING COUNTRY, AND MANY PEOPLE COME HERE FROM MANY STATES AND DECIDE TO STAY FOR THE HOMETOWN FEELING.
WE RESPECT GOD'S NATURE AND WE COEXIST WITH IT FROM LADY BIRD JOHNSON'S WILD FLOWERS TO PRESERVING THE MISSIONS AND HOT WELLS PARK.
AND TRISH BERRY RECENTLY DECIDED TO PR CREATE TREES EVERYWHERE, THOUSAND TREES DOWNTOWN, WHICH MAKES SURE THAT WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES AND PRESERVE NATURE AND HOW IT BENEFITS US TREMENDOUSLY IN OUR HEALTH.
THESE LOTS WOULD BE GOING TO EIGHT, WHICH IS NOT NORM NORMAL OUT THERE.
ALL OF THEM ARE MAYBE MAXIMUM THREE FOUR OF, UH, RESIDENCES.
I USED TO WORK FOR THE ENVIRONMENTAL, ENVIRONMENTAL PUBLIC, UH, WORKS DIVISION WITH BEXAR COUNTY.
AND ALL OF OUR ONSITE SEWAGE FACILITIES PLANS THAT WERE SUBMITTED BY THE ENGINEERS WOULD HAVE AN ALTERNATE DRAIN FIELD TO BE ABLE TO, UH, REPLACE THE EXISTING FIELD IF IT BECAME SATURATED OR DAMAGED.
WITH THE 100 FOOT SETBACK THAT WAS ENACTED BY DR.
ZACHARIA ON THIS, UH, THIS SUBDIVISION ORIGINALLY IT HAD A HUNDRED FOOT SETBACK FROM THE STREET, 20 FOOT FROM EACH SIDE WITH THAT MUCH, UM, BEING USED FOR THAT.
AND THE STRUCTURES, THERE WILL NOT BE ENOUGH ALTERNATE DRAIN SITES FOR THIS AND ALSO FOR COUNTRY LIVING.
FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE RE UH, RESIDENTS THERE THAT ARE RETIREMENT AGE ALREADY, UH, THEY DO A LOT OF FARMING AND THEY HAVE, UH, AGRICULTURE AND LIVESTOCK AND, UH, THEY LIKE TO GROW THEIR OWN VEGETABLES AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
AND, UH, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT ME AND MY WIFE WERE WORKING ON AIRCRAFT WHEN BEFORE KELLY AIR FORCE BASE CLOSED, WE BECAME INSTRUCTORS.
AND I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THESE KINDS OF, UH, ENVIRONMENTS FOSTER A GOOD, UH, NURTURING ENVIRONMENT FOR STUDENTS TO BECOME WELL, UH, ADAPTED YOUNG PEOPLE AND TRAINING AND GOOD FOR THEIR NATURE AND THEIR STRESS.
UM, UH, WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT THE GAS EASEMENT, I DON'T WANT THEM TO PUT NATURAL GAS BECAUSE, UH, WE'VE ALREADY HAD OVER
[00:05:01]
1500 LEAKS IN SAN ANTONIO, AND IT HAS TO BE IN GOOD AGREEMENT AND GOOD FAITH FOR THE NEIGHBORS OF THE COMMUNITY THAT ARE PIONEERS IN THAT AREA.AND WE DEEM THAT THIS WOULD BE OFFENSIVE ON NUMBER SIX OF THE DEEDS RESTRICTIONS BY DR.
ZACHARIA OF BEING OFFENSIVE BECAUSE OF ELIMINATING TOO MANY TREES, NOT ENOUGH SPACE FOR ALTERNATE DRAIN FIELDS.
AND IT'S A RETIREMENT COMMUNITY WITH NATURE, AND WE BELIEVE IT WOULD ENCROACH TOO MUCH ON THE, ON THE CIVIL RIGHTS AND, UH, WAY OF LIVING OF THEM.
UM, MAY THE HONOR HONORABLE COMMISSIONS COMMISSIONERS BE TRUE AND RESPECTFUL OF POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF ALL AND THEIR FUTURE GENERATIONS.
I HUMBLY SUBMIT THIS FOR YOU FOR CONSIDERATION FROM A, MYSELF BEING A PUBLIC SERVANT AS ONE OF GOD'S STEWARDS OF THE LAND.
UH, NEXT WE HAVE MARY LOU VEGA.
HELLO, MY NAME'S MARY LOU VEGA.
I LIVE AT 1 61 TRUMBO TRAIL, UM, THAT IS, UH, NEXT TO WHERE THEY'RE TRYING AND REPL THAT FIVE ACRE TRACK.
SO THAT SUBDIVISION HAS FIVE ACRE TRACKS ALL ALONG THE TRUMBLE TRAIL AND TRU UH, TRUMBO SANDS.
UM, THERE ARE FIVE ACRE PLATS WITH INDIVIDUAL FAMILIES THAT LIVE THERE THAT, THAT PLA THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO REPL, THAT AC THAT UH, LOT THAT THEY'RE TRYING TO REPL HAS, UH, FIVE ACRES.
THEY'RE TRYING TO DIVIDE IT INTO EIGHT DIFFERENT PROPERTIES.
AND, UM, IT'S CAUSING, IT CAUSES A LOT OF PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF THE, THE SEPTIC DESIGN, LIKE MY HUSBAND SAID, IT'LL CAUSE POLLUTION IN THAT SENSE.
AND THEN THEY ALSO WANNA PUT THE GAS OUT THERE, WHICH, UH, THERE IS NO GAS DOWN THAT SUBDIVISION RIGHT NOW.
SO WE HAVEN'T HAD TO DEAL WITH ANY KIND OF GAS OR THEY HAVE PROPANE ALSO.
BUT WE HAVEN'T HAD TO DEAL WITH ANY OF THE GAS PROBLEMS THAT HAS BEEN EXISTING WITH THE SUBDIVISIONS.
IT IS ALL COUNTRY, COUNTRY AREA OUT THERE.
AND, UM, MOST OF THE PEOPLE HAVE A LOT OF ACREAGE AND A GOOD SIZE OF ACREAGE.
UM, THERE'S A LOT OF SUBDIVISIONS THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING IN, UH, CLOSER TO THE SCHOOL.
UM, SO WE SUGGEST THAT THEY KEEP IT AT A HIGHER, TO PUT LESS HOUSES OUT THERE, AT LEAST AT ONE ACRE TRACKS, BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS JUST POPULATING THAT AREA.
AND WE HAVE A LOT OF WILDLIFE THAT GETS AFFECTED.
SO WE HAVE, UH, DEERS THAT GO OUT THERE, TURKEYS, AND THEY'RE ALL BEING AFFECTED BY ALL THOSE HOUSES BEING BUILT SO CLOSE TOGETHER.
WE HAVE ACREAGE ON THE SIDE THAT ALLOW THEM TO, TO RUN FREE.
AND A LOT OF THE PEOPLE THERE, THEY KEEP THEIR TREES AND THESE PEOPLE ARE PROPOSING TO KNOCK DOWN MAJORITY OF THE TREES.
AND THAT TAKES AWAY FROM THE ANIMALS THAT LIVE OUT THERE.
SO WE'RE, WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE WANNA DEVELOP MORE, BUT THEY'RE TRYING TO PUT TOO MANY HOUSES AND ONE LITTLE FIVE ACRE TRACK.
SO WE'RE SUGGESTING THAT THEY AT LEAST MINIMIZE IT TO HALF THE AMOUNT THAT THEY'RE DOING.
OKAY, NEXT PERSON IS RAINEY FOLEY.
I LIVE IN CHINA GROVE, BUT I'M TALKING ABOUT SOUTHEAST BEAR COUNTY.
I'M THE TRUSTEE FOR THE PROPERTY ACROSS FROM THE REPL.
FOR THIS, UH, FOR MR. MOYA, CAN YOU STATE YOUR ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? OH, MY ADDRESS, MY ADDRESS IS 7 7 1 7 TRIPLE ACRES, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 6 3.
UH, MY CONCERNS ARE, UH, SINCE I REPRESENT MY, MY PARENTS' ACREAGE, IT'S, IT'S OUT IN THE COUNTRY IN ATKINS.
UM, I HAVE, I DIDN'T OFFICIALLY HAVE AN OBJECTION TO THE REPL AS IT WAS SUBMITTED, BUT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT FUTURE CONSTRUCTION ON SMALLER, HAVING DENT, UM, BUILDINGS ON THIS PROPERTY.
UH, AND BECAUSE IT'S IN A, IT IS IN A FIELD, UH, FIELD, DRAINAGE AREA, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT PE UH, FUTURE BUILDING DUE TO, UH, UH, SEPTIC SYSTEMS. UH, I KNOW WE HAVE SAN ANTONIO WATER, BUT I KNOW THAT THEY WILL HAVE, UH, THEY'LL HAVE DRAINAGE PROBLEMS IF THEY, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE GONNA WANNA DO BUILD, UH, BUILD COMMERCIAL OR RESIDENTIAL AND EVERYONE OUT THERE, THE CON THE DEVELOPMENTS ARE HAPPENING PRETTY RAPIDLY OUT
[00:10:01]
ON HIGHWAY 87, AND I JUST DON'T WANNA SEE A BUNCH OF CROWDED STUFF ACROSS THE ROAD WHERE WE RAISE CATTLE AT FARM AND RANCH.AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH MY CONCERN.
UH, I WANNA KNOW IF HE WILL HAVE DEED RESTRICTIONS, IF THAT'S ALLOWED.
UH, I'M JUST, THAT'S, THAT'S JUST MY CONCERN RIGHT NOW IS TO KIND OF KEEP IT COUNTRY LIVING.
'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT, YOU KNOW, MY PARENTS BOUGHT THE PROPERTY OUT THERE FOR OVER 30 YEARS AGO AND NOW IT'S JUST BIDDING, UH, OVERBUILT, UH, WITH TRACK HOUSES AND IT'S, IT'S GETTING PRETTY UGLY
UH, THAT'S, THOSE ARE MY MAIN CONCERNS.
HEY, THIS IS FOR, UH, ITEM NUMBER TWO.
I LIVE AT 96 60 HUNDREDS LANE.
OUR PROPERTY IS, UM, UH, DIRECTLY N NEIGHBORLY TO THE, UM, TO THE HARVEY FAMILY.
UM, SO OUR, UM, THE FENCE SEPARATES US.
WE'VE BEEN THERE FOR ABOUT 20, 24, 25 YEARS NOW.
UM, WHEN WE MOVED OUT THERE, UM, I THINK THE DEED RESTRICTIONS HAD LAPSED FOR THAT NEIGHBORHOOD HUNTS.
UM, UM, UM, THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAD DEED RESTRICTIONS PRIOR TO IT WHEN WE BOUGHT THE PROPERTY, BUT EVERYONE HAD A MINIMUM OF FIVE ACRES AND THERE WERE CERTAIN THINGS THAT WERE REQUIRED.
UM, I THINK OUR, OUR PROPERTY IS JUST UNDER SEVEN ACRES.
I THINK THE HARVEY'S PROPERTY IS RIGHT AT SIX ACRES.
UM, AND I UNDERSTAND, YOU KNOW, WE TRY TO BE NEIGHBORLY, WE WANNA BE NEIGHBORLY.
I MEAN, EVERYBODY IS, HAS FREEDOM IN OUR COUNTRY.
UM, AND WE'RE NOT TRYING TO, TO LIMIT THEIR FREEDOM TO DO WHAT THEY DO WITH THEIR PROPERTY.
BUT, BUT IT IS KIND OF LIKE FROM THE, FROM, UM, OUR HOUSE, WHEN YOU COME OFF OF SCENIC LOOP, OUR HOME IS PROBABLY MAYBE THE, UH, MAYBE THE FIFTH PROPERTY COMING TO THE END OF OUR STREET.
IT'S A, IT'S A, IT'S A NO END STREET.
UM, AND THE, UM, AND IT SEEMS LIKE IT SLOWLY HAS BEEN CHANGING.
IT'S LIKE EVERY, FROM THE END OF THE STREET TOWARDS OUR HOME, IT'S JUST BEEN LIKE, OKAY.
SO THEY MADE AN EXCEPTION FOR, UM, FOR SUBDIVIDING THIS PROPERTY AND THIS PROPERTY.
AND NOW IT'S JUST SEEMS LIKE IT'S JUST COMING UP AND UP AND UP THE STREET.
SO IT SEEMS LIKE, I GUESS THAT'S THE TREND NOW IS EVERY PROPERTY IS GONNA BE, UH, SUBDIVIDED.
AND WHEN WE BOUGHT THE LAND AND PAID THE TAXES ON THE LAND FOR 23, 25 YEARS, OR HOWEVER LONG IT'S BEEN, UM, IT WAS WITH THE, UH, APPRECIATION FOR THE SPACE.
YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU COME OUT AND YOU LOOK OUT AND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE YOUR AREA, YOUR SPACE, AND YOU KNEW EVERYBODY HAD A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF SPACE.
BUT MY CONCERN IS THE, THE SPLITTING OFF THAT PIECE, UM, THE TWO ACRES, UM, I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANY LIMITATIONS AS TO HOW MANY HOMES THEY CAN PUT ON THAT TWO ACRES.
UM, OUR FIELD OF VIEW LOOKS RIGHT ACROSS THEIR PROPERTY.
UM, THEY'VE LAID LEVEL ALL, I THINK THE, THE OWNERS BEFORE THE HARVEY'S LEVELED ALL THE TREES THERE.
UM, SO YOU CAN SEE RIGHT ACROSS THE, THE, THE PASTURE AREA.
SO FROM OUR HOME TO ACROSS THEIR BACK FIELDS, UM, YOU SEE GRASS.
AND SO I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE GONNA PUT IN 1, 2, 3, 4 HOUSES.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE, WHAT THEIR, IF THERE'S ANY LIMITS AT ALL ABOUT THAT.
UM, CLEARLY IT'S, IT'S A, UH, AN UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATION TO BE HERE SPEAKING TO Y'ALL.
UM, ON, ON BEHALF OF OUR INTERESTS.
UM, 'CAUSE YOU KNOW, WE ARE NEIGHBORS WITH THE HARVEY FAMILY, UM, AND, UM, WE LIKE THEM AS PEOPLE.
SO WE'RE NOT TRYING TO SUPPRESS THEIR, THEIR AMBITIONS WITH THEIR LAND AND THEIR FREEDOM AS, YOU KNOW, AS CITIZENS.
BUT, UM, UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE TO BE HERE TODAY TO KIND OF SAY, AH, I'M REALLY NOT CRAZY ABOUT THAT.
AND IF, IF THERE'S ANY, UM, GRAPHIC TOSS OR WEIGHT TO WHAT I SAY, WHICH PROBABLY IS NOT THAT, THAT MUCH, UM, I, IT JUST, I WANTED TO GET IT ON THE RECORD THAT I'M OPPOSED TO THIS.
AND I SPOKE TO SOME OF MY OTHER NEIGHBORS.
I THINK SOMEONE CALLED IN AND LEFT A VOICE MESSAGE.
AND ONE OF THE NEIGHBORS, UM, MENTIONED TO ME THAT, THAT HE WASN'T TOO CRAZY ABOUT IT, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF HE MADE IT HERE OR NOT.
UM, BUT I JUST KNOW THAT THE CONSENSUS IS, IT'S JUST, OKAY, HERE GOES ANOTHER, ANOTHER SUBDIVISION OF A, OF A PLOTTED PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT, THAT DROVE US OUR, THAT THAT WE SOUGHT OUT AND WE MOVED TO THAT AREA FOR THAT REASON.
AND IT'S TOTALLY CHANGING THE DYNAMIC OF IT.
THAT IS EVERYBODY THAT SIGNED UP TO SPEAK.
SO, UM, WE'LL MOVE ON WITH THE CONSENT AGENDA.
IS THERE ANY, UH, COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS ON THAT? IF NOT, WE'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION MOVE TO APPROVE, UH, CONSENT AGENDA.
I HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL BY COMMISSIONER PROFIT, A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER SANCHEZ.
UM, CAN SOMEONE GET COMMISSIONER BUSANTE BACK IN? APPARENTLY HE WAS LISTENING.
IT'S TWO 18 AND COMMISSIONER BUSANTE HAS REENTERED THE MEETING.
[Comprehensive Master Plan Amendments ]
12.UH, FOR ITEM NUMBER 12, WE'RE REQUEST,
[00:15:01]
WE, I WANTED TO SEE IF WE CAN MOVE THAT TO THE END JUST BECAUSE THE, UM, REPRESENTATIVE IS NOT HERE YET.AND WE WANTED TO SEE, SO SURE.
WE'LL DO, IF WE COULD JUST MOVE IT TO THE END.
SO WE'LL GO DO THAT STRAIGHT INTO ITEM NUMBER 13 IF THAT'S POSSIBLE.
HI EVERYBODY, MY NAME IS KELLY SANDERS, PLANNING MANAGER WITH UM, ZONING DIVISION.
UH, THE ITEM NUMBER 13 IS A, UM, REQUEST BY DWIGHT HOWARD FOR APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE GUADALUPE WEST SIDE COMMUNITY PLAN.
UM, CHANGING THE LAND USE CLASSIFICATION FROM LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE.
UH, LOCATED AT 28 14 VERA CRUZ STREET.
WE, UM, STAFF MAILED 50 NOTICES.
WE RECEIVED ZERO IN FAVOR, ZERO OPPOSED, UH, BRADEN'S CARD.
BRADY GARDENS COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION IS OPPOSED.
AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE EL CHARRO NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
THE PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT FROM LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE IS REQUESTED TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM OUR FOUR RESIDENTIAL SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT TO IDZ THREE HIGH INTENSITY INFILL DEVELOPMENT ZONE FOR FOUR DWELLING UNITS.
UM, THE PROPOSED HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE LAND USE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES.
THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS ONLY 1,875 SQUARE FEET.
THAT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF A HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE CATEGORY.
THE REQUESTED DESIGNATION PERMITS A LEVEL OF INTENSITY THAT CANNOT BE HARMONIOUSLY INTEGRATED INTO A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL BLOCK.
FURTHERMORE, THE PROPOSAL TO PLACE FOUR DWELLING UNITS ON THE LOT OF THIS SIZE REPRESENTS A DENSITY SHIFT THAT IS BETTER SUITED FOR TRANSITIONAL AREAS CLOSER TO COMMERCIAL HUBS RATHER THAN THE INTERIOR OF A LOW DENSITY RESI NEIGHBORHOOD.
THE REQUESTED AMENDMENT DOES NOT ALIGN WITH THE GOAL OF MAINTAINING STABLE AND PREDICTABLE NEIGHBORHOOD GROWTH.
AND THE LAND USE PLAN DOES RECOMMEND SOME AREAS FOR MEDIUM AND HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL.
BUT IN AREAS THAT OUR APARTMENTS ALREADY EXIST, I DO KNOW THAT THE APPLICANT IS MOST LIKELY AMENDING THAT HE WILL NOT BE DOING FOUR UNITS, BUT ONLY THREE POTENTIALLY.
BUT IT STILL WILL REQUIRE THIS, UM, HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE TO ALLOW THAT IDZ UM, BASE ZONE STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
THE APPLICANT LIKE TO ADDRESS THE COMMISSION NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE, MARK, YOU HAVE ONE SEAT.
I DUNNO IF THIS IS BETTER OR BETTER.
MY NAME IS MARK GURA AND UH, MY ADDRESS IS THREE 17 ALTOS, UH, MY OFFICE ADDRESS.
AND, UH, I UNDERSTAND, UM, THAT IT SAYS, YOU KNOW, MULTIFAMILY HIGH DENSITY, BUT THESE ARE ACTUALLY, UH, EIGHT BY 40 CONTAINERS, UM, THAT YOU SEE LIKE 18 WHEELER CONTAINERS.
WE'RE ONLY PUTTING TWO OF THEM SIDE BY SIDE WITH, UH, 20 FEET OF COMMON WALL BETWEEN 'EM.
SO WE WOULD, IT'S ONLY A TOTAL OF 640 SQUARE FEET, UM, THAT WE WOULD BUILD THERE.
MOST OF THE HOMES AROUND THERE ARE GONNA BE BIGGER THAN THAT.
UM, WE COMPLY WITH THE PARKING THERE.
WE HAVE 18 FEET OF PARKING PLUS THE SIDEWALK.
IT GIVES US 22 FEET FROM THE DWELLING ALL THE WAY TO THE CURB.
UM, WE HAVE FOUR AND A HALF FEET OF, UH, SETBACKS ON EACH SIDE THAT WE WOULD PROVIDE, UH, SIDEWALKS TO.
AND, UM, YOU KNOW, WE UNDERSTAND, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THE HESITATION OF HAVING MULTIFAMILY, BUT YOU KNOW, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TWO UNITS BEING 160 SQUARE FEET AND ONE BEING 320 SQUARE FEET.
SO I DON'T THINK IT IT AFFECTS TOO MUCH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT WILL BE LIVING THERE, WHICH WOULD ONLY BE REALLY THREE PEOPLE.
UM, WE CHANGED IT FROM FOUR TO THREE BASED ON THE RECOMMENDATION.
UM, THAT MAYBE WOULD BE A LITTLE BIT MORE PALATABLE TO THE COMMISSION.
UM, YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING TO DO SOMETHING NICE, TRYING TO MAKE IT VERY, UM, PLEASING TO THE EYE THERE, BUT ALSO FEASIBLE AS A BUSINESS OF COURSE.
SO, UM, YOU KNOW, WE'RE HOPING THAT THE COMMISSION WOULD LOOK FAVORABLY TOWARDS THIS, UM, SO THAT WE CAN GET GOING, START THE PROCESS.
[00:20:01]
UH, NOBODY SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.SO WE'LL MOVE TO COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS.
WE'LL START ON THE RIGHT WITH COMMISSIONER COOPER.
THESE ARE CONTAINERS, RIGHT? I'M SORRY? THESE ARE CONTAINERS? MM-HMM
WELL, YOU SEE ON THE 18 WHEELERS, THEY'RE EIGHT.
THEY'RE ONLY EIGHT FEET WIDE AND 50 BY 40 FEET DEEP.
SO TO GIVE IT A LITTLE BIT MORE APPEAL, WE KIND OF STAGGERED THEM A LITTLE BIT, SO THEY'D LOOK A LITTLE NICER WHERE WE CAN PROVIDE SOME GREEN AREAS FOR THE ONES IN THE FRONT AND THE BACK, MAYBE SOME PATIO AREAS.
UH, WE DIDN'T WANNA JUST STACK 'EM SIDE BY SIDE, UM, SO IT WOULDN'T LOOK SO COMMERCIAL, YOU KNOW, JUST TRY TO GIVE IT SOME APPEAL.
AT THE END OF THE CONSTRUCTION.
THIS WOULD BE THREE DIFFERENT UNITS.
SO THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO CONTAINERS, BUT WE'RE SPLITTING THE MIDDLE OF IT.
SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE DEAL, IF YOU LOOK AT IT, THERE'S, THERE'S TWO CONTAINERS THAT'LL BE STAGGERED, KIND OF LIKE THIS.
THE COMMON WALL BETWEEN THE TWO IS 20 FEET AND ALL THAT WOULD BE FIRE RATED, OF COURSE.
SO YOU'D HAVE ONE IN THE FRONT PUSH THAT RED BUTTON DOWN.
SO YOU SEE HERE THAT'S 160 SQUARE FEET, WHICH IS BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, EIGHT BY 20.
AND THEN THAT PART RIGHT HERE, THIS IS THE REST OF THIS CONTAINER.
THERE'S THE DIVIDER RIGHT THERE.
AND THIS IS ONE CONTAIN ONE, YOU KNOW, ONE UNIT OF 320 SQUARE FEET, WHICH IS THE SECOND HALF OF, OF THIS FIRST ONE AND THE SECOND HALF OF THIS ONE.
AND THEN IN THE BACK IS ONLY 160 SQUARE FEET.
SO THEY'RE BASICALLY EFFICIENCY, TIGHT DWELLINGS.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, THERE'S NOT A WHOLE LOT OF ROOM IN THERE.
IT'S, THEY'RE JUST TWO CONTAINERS THAT WE'RE KIND OF SPLITTING IN THE MIDDLE TO GIVE, UH, TWO DIFFERENT UNITS ON EACH SIDE, FRONT AND BACK, AND THEN ONE IN THE MIDDLE.
UH, I DON'T THINK MORE THAN THREE PEOPLE COULD LIVE IN THOSE.
I MEAN, WE WOULDN'T, YOU KNOW,
WE HAVE UNDER THE IDG, WE'RE ALLOWED TO HAVE, UM, 50% OF THE REQUIRED PARKING.
WE HAVE TWO FULL PARKING SPACES THERE.
UM, I KNOW THAT PEOPLE DO PARK ON THE STREETS THERE.
UM, THERE'S ALSO BUS STOPS ABOUT, THERE'S ONE BUS STOP THAT'S FIVE, ABOUT FIVE BLOCKS AWAY, AND THERE'S ONE THAT'S NINE BLOCKS AWAY.
UM, BUT YEAH, SO WE WOULD COMPLY WITH THE PARKING UNDER IDZ THREE.
IS THERE A MINIMUM SIZE REQUIREMENT FOR DWELLINGS? NO, SIR.
AND THAT TYPE OF MATERIAL THAT HE'S SUGGESTING CAN STILL GET METERS UTILITY SERVICE? YEAH.
SO THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE SAYS THAT A SLEEPING AREA HAS TO BE 70 SQUARE FEET AND EVERY ADDITIONAL PERSON SLEEPING IN THAT AREA, THERE NEEDS TO BE AN ADDITIONAL 50 SQUARE FEET.
UM, TO ANSWER THE SECOND QUESTION, I NEED A CLARIFICATION FROM THE APPLICANT.
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT LIKE METAL SHIPPING CONTAINERS? YES, SIR.
BECAUSE TWICE I'VE HEARD YOU SAY THE TRAILER THAT AN 18 WHEELER HAULS.
WHICH, WHICH IS IT? WELL, IT'S, THEY'RE METAL SHIPPING CONTAINERS THAT ARE OKAY.
METAL SHIPPING CONTAINERS THAT ARE, IT'S JUST FOR PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE.
THERE'S WHAT YOU SEE, LIKE ON 18 WHEELERS, THEY'RE, BUT THEY'RE EIGHT FEET WIDE BY 40 FEET DEEP.
SO, UH, THE BUILDING CODES WOULD STILL APPLY.
SO THOSE SHIPPING CONTAINERS WOULD HAVE TO BE RETROFITTED TO MEET THE INTERNATIONAL RESIDENTIAL CODE IS DOABLE.
IT'S CHALLENGING, BUT IT'S DOABLE.
WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING IT ALREADY AT 29 42 TAMICO.
WE ACTUALLY PUT TWO CONTAINERS SIDE BY SIDE, CUT OUT THE MIDDLE AND TWO CONTAINERS ON TOP TO MAKE IT A DUPLEX.
UM, WE DIDN'T CHOOSE TO DO GO THAT ROUTE HERE BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE LOT.
UM, BUT YES, UH, WE'VE LOOKED INTO HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN SLEEP THERE, THE MINIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE.
AND YOUR ENGAGEMENT WITH BRADY GARDENS, THE NEIGHBORS ASSOCIATION, THEY, THEY DID NOT RECOMMEND APPROVAL FOR THIS? I, I DIDN'T KNOW.
I DON'T, DIDN'T INTERACT WITH THE NEIGHBORS TO, I DID AROUND THE NEIGHBORS.
UM, WE WERE, THERE'S UM, A RENTAL UNIT TO ONE SIDE OF US.
IF YOU LOOKING AT THE, AT THE LOT FROM THE STREET TO THE LEFT.
IT'S A RENTAL UNIT, BUT IT'S VACANT.
THERE'S A NEIGHBOR TO THE RIGHT.
WE TALKED TO THEM, THEY WERE IN FAVOR.
TALKED TO THE NEIGHBORS IN FRONT.
[00:25:01]
WE ALSO OWNED A LOT ACROSS THE STREET, CATTY CORNER, WHICH IS THE CORNER.UH, AND HOPEFULLY WE WOULD, YOU KNOW, LIKE TO DO SOMETHING THERE AS WELL LATER.
UM, SO THE QUESTION I HAVE IS, THE QUESTION I HAVE IS, IS THERE CURRENTLY A DWELLING THERE? ACCORDING TO THE MAPS? THERE IS, THERE'S NO DWELLING THERE.
IF YOU SEE THE, IT'S 28 14 VERA CRUZ, CORRECT? THERE IT IS RIGHT THERE.
UM, AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MAKE THESE LOOK LIKE NOT CONTAINER HOMES? I MEAN, UH, CONTAINERS.
ARE YOU PUTTING STUCCO IN FRONT OF 'EM OR DRYWALL OR, OR BATTEN OR ON THE EXTERIOR? UM, WE, WE HAVEN'T DETERMINED EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO WITH THE OUTSIDE.
NORMALLY THEY REMAIN THE, THE METAL AND WE, WE CAN PAINT 'EM OR WE PUT PATIOS IN FRONT, UH, OR WE CAN PUT SIDING ON 'EM.
UM, THERE'S JUST DIFFERENT WAYS TO, TO DO IT.
SO THE QUESTION I HAVE YOU, YOU'RE WORKING ON 29 42 TAMPICO.
IS THAT A COMPLETED PROJECT? NO MA'AM, NOT YET.
COMMISSIONER SANCHEZ, THE, THE PROPERTY ON VER ON VERACRUZ, IS THAT GONNA BE SINGLE STORY OR TWO STORY? SINGLE STORY, SIR.
UM, I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS PRIMARILY FOR STAFF.
UH, FIRST, UH, I BELIEVE IN THE REPORT YOU SAID THAT THE IDZ BASE ZONING, UH, WILL REQUIRE THE HIGH DENSITY MIXED USE EVEN FROM FOUR TO THREE, CORRECT.
IS THAT, IS THAT TRUE FROM THREE TO TWO? GIMME A SECOND.
BECAUSE I MIGHT HAVE A SUGGESTION IF THE, I MEAN IDZ IS GOING TO NEED A LAND USE, UH, PLAN AMENDMENT EITHER WAY.
SO FOR THE LOW DENSITY MIXED USE, YOU ARE ALLOWED UP A DENSITY OF 25 UNITS PER ACRE.
AND AGAIN, THIS PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY SMALL R ONE EFFECTIVELY, RIGHT.
SO IT'S 0.043 AND IF I DID THE MF 25, IT WOULD ONLY GIVE HIM ONE.
UH, THIS IS CURRENTLY ZONED R FOUR AND I KNOW I'M GOING INTO ZONING, BUT I'M GONNA GET TO THE PLANNING IN A SECOND.
IS THAT COMPLIANT WITH R FOUR? IT IS NOT, BUT IT DOES LOOK LIKE IT MAY BE ORIGINAL CONFIGURATION THAT HE COULD POTENTIALLY LOOK INTO A CERTIFICATE OF DETERMINATION IF HE WANTED TO BUILD A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING UNIT.
IF THEY DIDN'T AND THEY WANTED TO REZONE TO R ONE, WHAT WOULD THAT PLAN USE BE THAT LAND USE? SO I WILL ADMIT THIS IS A VERY, THIS IS AN OLDER PLAN THAT I BELIEVE WAS ADOPTED BEFORE R ONE AND R TWO WERE CREATED.
AND SO LOAD DENSITY RESIDENTIAL THOUGH DOES PERMIT LIKE R THREE, R FOUR, R FIVE.
SO I WOULD STICK WITH THE LOAD DENSITY RESIDENTIAL IF HE WAS TO REZONE TO R ONE AND HE WOULD NOT NEED THIS PLAN AMENDMENT.
SO THAT'S ONE WAY TO AVOID THE PLAN AMENDMENT.
BUT THAT'S KIND OF THE ONLY WAY AND IT'S NOT TECHNICALLY IN THE PLAN.
'CAUSE R ONE AND R TWO DIDN'T EXIST, RIGHT? CORRECT.
I THINK THOSE ARE MY QUESTIONS.
ZONING HAS NOT HEARD THIS YET, CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT.
I DON'T HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OTHER THAN WHAT'S ALREADY BEEN ASKED.
UM, IS THERE ANY OTHER COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS? IF NOT, WE'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION.
WE HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL BY COMMISSIONER BUSANTE AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER ZUKI STAFF, PLEASE DO A ROLL CALL VOTE.
[00:30:01]
WALLER? NO.COMMISSIONER PROFIT FOR CLARIFICATION.
THIS IS FOR APPROVAL OF THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT.
UH, NO CHAIR PECK, NO MOTION FAILS.
EITHER COMMISSIONER BUSANTE CAN RESCIND HIS MOTION AND CHANGE IT OR WE CAN ENTERTAIN ANOTHER MOTION.
TO MAKE AN ALTERNATIVE MOTION.
WE HAVE A MOTION FOR DENIAL OF THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST BY COMMISSIONER WALLERS.
I MOVE FOR A CONTINUANCE TO JUNE 10TH.
WE HAVE A MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE TO JUNE 10TH BY COMMISSIONER BUSANTE.
SECOND BY WHO WAS THAT? COMMISSIONER SANCHEZ? YES, SIR.
UH, STAFF, PLEASE DO A ROLL CALL VOTE.
MOTION PASSES FOR CONTINUANCE.
IS IT, THAT'S A TWO WEEK CONTINUANCE, CORRECT? CORRECT.
ITEM 14 IS REQUESTING A FOUR WEEK CONTINUANCE TO THE JUNE 24TH MEETING.
WE DO HAVE SOMEBODY SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM.
WE HAVE RUBY RAMOS IF YOU'D LIKE TO SPEAK NOW OR WAIT TILL THE CONTINUANCE IN FOUR WEEKS.
SO, UH, APPLICANT HAS REQUESTED A FOUR WEEK CONTINUOUS, SO THAT WOULD BE TO JUNE 24TH, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN.
MOTION TO APPROVE APPLICANT'S REQUEST FOR CONTINUANCE TO THE JUNE 24TH PC MEETING.
SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE FOUR WEEK CONTINUANCE BY COMMISSIONER PROFIT.
MOTION PASSES FOR CONTINUANCE.
MY NAME IS SAMANTHA BETAS, PLANNER WITH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.
ITEM NUMBER 16 IS A REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION TO AMEND THE NEAR NORTHWEST COMMUNITY PLAN FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL LOCATED AT 1802 WEST FRENCH PLACE, THERE WERE 30 NOTICES.
MAILED AID IN FAVOR, ONE OPPOSED WITHIN 200 FEET.
WOODLAWN, LAKE WEST END HOPE IN ACTION.
MARTINEZ CREEK NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS AND SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS DISTRICT ONE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION GAVE NO RESPONSE OUTSIDE.
200 FEET 16 ARE IN FAVOR AND ZERO OPPOSED.
THE APPLICANT SEEKS A PLAN AMENDMENT TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO REZONE TO C TWO.
AN A CD COMMERCIAL NON-ALCOHOLIC SALES DISTRICT WITH A CONDITIONAL USE FOR RENTAL TOOL EQUIPMENT AND EVENT SPECIALTIES.
FENCED AND SCREENED OUTSIDE STORAGE AND DISPLAY PERMITTED.
THE SURROUNDING AREA INCLUDES BOTH NEIGHBORHOOD, COMMERCIAL AND MEDIUM DENSITY.
LAND USE DESIGNATIONS WHILE SIMILAR COMMERCIAL USES IN ZONING DISTRICTS EXIST, EXIST ALONG NORTH SA SOMO STREET.
THESE DEVELOPMENTS EXCEED THE ZONING INTENSITY SUPPORTED BY THE AREA'S CURRENT LAND USE DESIGNATION, MAKING THE REQUEST INCONSISTENT WITH THE RECOMMENDED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN ENVISIONED IN THE NEAR NORTHWEST COMMUNITY.
ADDITIONALLY, BOTH THE EXISTING AND PROPOSED LAND USE DESIGNATION DESIGNATIONS AS DEFINED BY THE COMMUNITY PLAN, EMPHASIZE THAT PARKING AREAS, SERVICE ENTRANCES AND OR SIDE OR REAR YARD SHOULD BE SCREENED FROM ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES AND STREET VIEW TO PROMOTE PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY AND VISUALLY ATTRACTIVE DEVELOPMENT.
GIVEN THE SCALE OF THE PROPOSED OUTDOOR STORAGE AND THE SITE'S PROXIMITY TO NEARBY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCES.
[00:35:01]
STAFF FINDS THAT THE PROPERTY DOES NOT SATISFY THE LOCATIONAL CRITERIA NECESSARY TO SUPPORT THE REQUESTED COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION.STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
THE APPLICANT LIKE TO ADDRESS THE COMMISSION NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

LIKE I SAID, WE'VE, WE'VE BEEN A PILLAR IN THE COMMUNITY.
OUR BUSINESS HAS ALREADY BEEN OPERATING OUT OF THERE.
WE JUST WEREN'T ZONED CORRECTLY.
WE'RE ACTUALLY ZONED FOR, UM, AUTO UPHOLSTERY WHEN WE BOUGHT THE LOT NEXT DOOR.
SO ALL WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS JUST GET IT ZONED PROPERLY.
I KNOW THEY SHOWED YOU RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET, BUT IF YOU WOULD JUST GO RIGHT ACROSS FROM THAT, THIS IS WHAT'S GOING.
YOU HAVE INDUSTRIAL, UM, WASTE, JUST BIG TRUCKS JUST SITTING THERE THAT HAVE BEEN ABANDONED.
UM, NO ONE'S USING IN, IN, UM, STUFF.
YOU HAVE ABANDONED CARS THAT ARE PARKED LITERALLY LESS THAN 300 SQUARE FEET AWAY.
THAT'S THE, THAT'S THE PLAN THAT THEY'RE, THAT'S GOING ON RIGHT NOW.
UM, IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT ONE RIGHT NOW, UM, THERE'S AN ABANDONED, UM, CAR WASH THERE THAT'S BEEN THERE.
UM, YOU HAVE A LOT OF, UH, WHERE THEY'RE SELLING THE STASH BAGS.
UM, THERE'S ABOUT THREE OR FOUR OF 'EM UP THE STREET.
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE, THERE'S A GAMING ROOM THAT PEOPLE USE OR ABANDONED.
THERE'S NOTHING BUT ABANDONED BUILDINGS ALL UP IN ZAMORA.
I WENT AHEAD AND WE'VE BEEN THERE FOR, FOR A LONG TIME.
UM, WE'VE HELPED BRING IN OTHER BUSINESSES.
WE BROUGHT IN TWO OTHER DAYCARES RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM US.
WE'VE HELPED A PARTY PLANNING PLACE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM US.
SO WE'VE HELPED DIANE BURGERS WHEN THEY USED TO BE FORMING, KNOWN AS CHRIS MADRIDS.
UM, SO WE'RE ACTUALLY GROWING THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
SO FOR THEM TO SAY THAT IT DOESN'T GO WITH AESTHETICS FOR THE NORTH SIDE PLAN, IT'S, THAT'S UNREAL.
WE'VE ONLY HAVE ONE THAT DOES NOT SUPPORT US, WHICH IS THE NEIGHBOR RIGHT BEHIND US.
SO TO FULFILL THAT, WHAT WE DID IS WE MOVED ALL OF OUR CARNIVAL RIGHTS OVER AND GOT A SECOND LOCATION.
SO WE WENT AHEAD AND MOVED OUTSIDE.
1604, WE MOVED ALL OF OUR CARNIVAL RIGHTS OUTSIDE.
ALL WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS JUST TRYING TO GET IT ZONED PROPERLY SO WE CAN JUST STILL STAY IN BUSINESS.
WE'RE NOT TRYING TO CLOSE DOWN OUR BUSINESS AFTER 25 YEARS.
WE'VE BEEN IN DISTRICT SEVEN, WE'RE PLANNING ON STAYING THERE FOR THE NEXT, YOU KNOW, UNTIL I CAN KEEP GOING ANOTHER 20 YEARS.
UM, FOR THEM, FOR DENIAL, I JUST UNCALLED FOR.
AND I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THE REALITY OF THAT.
UM, BUT IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE ITSELF, THIS IS THE COMMUNITY BENEFITS.
WE WERE, WE MET WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, THE WOODLAWN LAKE ASSOCIATION.
UM, OUR DISTRICT, UM, SEVEN COUNCILMAN WAS WAS THERE ALSO.
UH, WE'VE MET WITH HER ALREADY TWICE.
WE'VE MET WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
UM, ALL OF THEM WERE IN SUPPORT OF US.
THEY ALL SPOKE UP AND SAID THAT THEY DON'T WANT US TO GO.
UM, WE'VE MET WITH THREE DIFFERENT HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATIONS SURROUNDING AREAS, EACH ONE OF THEM.
AND EACH ONE OF 'EM, THEY ALL USE US.
EVERYONE SAID THEY DON'T WANT US TO GO.
WE'VE SEEN THEIR KIDS GROW UP IN OUR, IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
I'VE HAD PEOPLE THAT RUN IT FROM US THAT ARE 18 YEARS OLD WHEN THEIR, WHEN THEIR KIDS WERE BABIES.
UM, SO FOR THEM TO DENY US, IT'S, IT'S JUST, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY'RE NOT ALLOWING US.
ALL WE WANT TO DO IS JUST TO BE ABLE TO PARK OUR CARS, OUR TRUCKS, OUR TRAILERS THERE, UM, AND JUST WANT TO BE AND, AND, UM, AND STAND IN GOOD STANDING WITH EVERYTHING.
CODE COMPLIANCE DID COME, THEY DID GIVE US FIVE VIOLATIONS THAT WE DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE WERE VIOLATING.
UH, WITHIN TWO WEEKS WE WENT AHEAD AND CORRECTED EVERYTHING.
BUT WITHIN THESE PAST TWO MONTHS, WE'VE NEVER HAD ANY VIOLATIONS IN OUR WHOLE 25 YEARS OF BEING THERE.
UM, SO WE, WE'VE BEEN THERE FOR, FOR QUITE A WHILE.
UM, AND IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE, AND THIS IS BASICALLY WHAT THEY'RE SAYING RIGHT HERE.
SO WE, WE, WE MOVED ALL THE BIG CARNIVAL RIDES.
[00:40:01]
ALL THAT'S PARKED THERE IS JUST SMALLER TRUCKS, SMALLER TRAILERS.SO WE WOULD BE CLIMBING IN, UM, DRIVING IN THROUGH WEST FRENCH AND WE'D BE COMING OUT THROUGH ZAMORA.
UM, WHAT WE DID IS WE WERE GONNA BE FOLLOWING THE DECIMALS, WHICH WE TRY.
UH, WE DON'T WANT TO BE OBSTRUCTING TRAFFIC ON ZAMO.
WE HEARD WHAT PEOPLE WERE JUST ASKING ABOUT SAYING, HEY, IF WE DO APPROVE THIS ZONING FOR YOU, IF WE'RE IN FAVOR, CAN YOU DO THIS AND THAT.
AND JUST EVERYBODY HAD DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON DIFFERENT THINGS FOR, FOR NOISE OR JUST STUFF.
I MEAN, EVERY MONDAY MORNING WE'RE OUT THERE WASHING INFLATABLES, BLOWING UP THESE, IF, IF ANYONE IS EVER RENTED AN INFLATABLE, YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T MAKE UP MUCH NOISE, BUT YOU HAVE A SMALL BLOWER THAT BLOWS IT UP.
UM, WE, WE HAVE TO CLEAN UP THESE INFLATABLES EVERY MONDAY MORNING WE STARTED EIGHT IN THE MORNING BY THREE, FOUR O'CLOCK WE'RE DONE.
WE KNOCK 'EM DOWN AND WE ROLL 'EM UP AND WE PUT EVERYTHING AWAY.
WE'VE NEVER HAD ANY COMPLAINTS.
WE'VE BEEN THERE, LIKE I SAID, FOR YEARS.
UM, ALL WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS JUST GET IT ZONED PROPERLY SO WE CAN STORE OUR TRUCKS AND TRAILERS THERE ON THE CORNER LOT.
AND IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT ONE, UM, THIS IS BASICALLY WHAT WE'RE GONNA BE STORING NOW.
YOU SAW THE PICTURE OF WHAT IT USED TO BE THERE.
ALL WE'RE GONNA BE PARKING IS JUST OUR, OUR REGULAR TRUCKS, OUR TRAILERS, DUNK TANKS, UH, SMALL RIDES THAT ARE GONNA BE UNDER SIX FEET, UM, TALL.
AND THEN JUST BASICALLY THAT SETTING IF YOU GO TO THE NEXT RIDE AS WELL.
UM, IT'S JUST, WE'RE JUST REQUESTING FOR THE APPROVAL ON THIS, ON THE REZONING.
AND THEN IF YOU HAVE THE NEXT ONE AS WELL.
UM, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME ON THE ZONING? OKAY.
I APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION.
I'LL MOVE ON TO COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS.
WE'LL START ON THE LEFT WITH COMMISSIONER BUSTAMONTE.
YOU HAD MENTIONED, UH, BELIEVE IT WAS THE NEIGHBOR BEHIND YOU.
IS THAT ON 18, UH, THAT WAS NOT IN FAVOR.
I'M SORRY? IN 18, IS THAT 1810 WEST FRENCH? YES.
THAT PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED C TWO.
UM, AND THE LAST COMMUNICATION YOU'VE HAD WITH THEM HAS BEEN, HAS BEEN NEGATIVE? IT'S BEEN NEGATIVE, YES, SIR.
UM, HE, HE, UM, THEY, HE MOVED IN ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND UM, HE JUST WASN'T HAPPY.
BUT WITH, UH, I JUST, I GUESS WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON, UM, SO WE, WE TRY TO WORK WITH THEM.
UM, EVEN THE NEIGHBORS, THE COUPLE OF THE NEIGHBORS HAVE TALKED TO HIM AND WE EVEN TOLD HIM, HEY, WE, HE EVEN OFFERED TO, WE EVEN PUT STORM WINDOWS ON HIS THING 'CAUSE HE SAYS FOR THE NOISE.
BUT IT'S JUST, WE OFFERED DIFFERENT THINGS.
WE PUT UP TO, UH, WE OFFERED TO PUT THE FENCE A LITTLE HIGHER.
UH, WE EVEN PUT LIKE, UM, UM, SOME PRIVACY FENCE UP.
I MEAN, WE'RE TRYING TO DO WHAT WE CAN TO, TO APPEASE HIM, BUT HE'S JUST, HE'S JUST REALLY UNHAPPY ON THAT.
BUT HE'S, LIKE I SAID, HE IS BEEN AROUND FOR ABOUT A YEAR.
BUT EVERYONE ELSE FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD, I EVEN HAVE PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT DON'T WANT US TO GO.
THEY, THEY'VE BEEN USING US FOR YEARS.
UM, THEY'RE COMPLETE SUPPORT WITH US.
EVERYBODY'S IN SUPPORT WITH US.
I HAVEN'T FOUND NOT ONE OTHER PERSON THAT'S NOT IN SUPPORT OF US EXCEPT FOR ONE NEIGHBOR.
SOMETIMES THAT'S ALL IT TAKES THOUGH.
I'M JUST CURIOUS, HOW DID THE, 'CAUSE THAT, THAT, THAT'S BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME WITH THE AMUSEMENT RIDES OVER THE GATE, YOU CAN SEE THEM.
HOW, HOW DID THIS, HOW DID IT START WITH THE REZONING? IT WAS, IT, WAS IT A CODE COMPLIANCE ISSUE OR IT WAS THE, THE NEIGHBOR HAD CALLED IN.
THE NEIGHBOR HAD CALLED, UH, CODE COMPLIANCE, UM, HAD CALLED JUST DIFFERENT THINGS THAT HE COULD DO.
UM, AND JUST STARTED MAKING COMPLAINTS.
SO WHEN THEY CAME OUT, HE SAID WE WERE LEANING STUFF ON HIS FENCE AND THAT'S HOW IT STARTED.
SO WHEN CODE COMPLIANCE CAME OUT, TOOK A LOOK, THERE WAS NOTHING LAYING ON HIS FENCE.
THEY, THEY SAID THAT THE, THEY SAID THAT THE FENCE WAS IN GREAT CONDITION.
BUT WHEN THEY STARTED WALKING AROUND, THAT'S WHEN THEY SAID, HEY, WAIT A MINUTE.
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE BIG INDUSTRIAL STUFF HERE.
YOU CAN'T HAVE SIDE SANDBAGS ON THE SIDE OF THE ALLEY THAT HAS TO BE MOVED IN.
YOU CAN'T PARK YOUR TRUCKS OUTSIDE.
UM, AND I, AND I'M PARKING 'EM RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY BUILDING AND THEY SAY, WELL, YOU CAN'T PARK TRUCKS OUTSIDE.
YOU HAVE TO PARK 'EM INSIDE THE LOT AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT INDUSTRIAL.
AND IT JUST OPENED UP A WHOLE BUNCH OF DIFFERENT THINGS ON THERE.
SO IT STARTED FROM JUST ONE SMALL COMPLAINT AND THEN CO COMPLIANCE CAME.
BUT THAT'S WHY THEY GAVE ME FIVE DIFFERENT VIOLATIONS.
UM, BUT IT WAS JUST MINIMUM STUFF ON THERE AND WE FIXED IT RIGHT AWAY FROM THEM.
AND SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH, WITH CODE VIOLATIONS AND ALSO WITH, WITH STAFF ALSO ON THERE.
COULD YOU PUT THE MAP UP OF HIS PLAN? THERE'S, YOU GO THERE.
THERE'S, SO I'M SEEING THAT YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE GOING TO PUT A, WHERE DID I READ THAT? EIGHT FOOT FENCE? UH, YES.
RIGHT, RIGHT, RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A SIX FOOT FENCE.
I KNOW THEY WERE ASKING RIGHT HERE WE HAVE IS, UH, WE HAVE A SIX FOOT FENCE GOING RIGHT HERE.
AND THAT, THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE.
WE GOT PERMITTED TO PUT THAT ON HERE.
ACTUALLY, IT'S A SIX FOOT FENCE RIGHT HERE AND THEN IT'S A FIVE AND A HALF FOOT FENCE RIGHT HERE.
THAT WAS WHAT THE CITY REQUIRED.
UM, AND THEN THEY WERE ASKING US TO DO A SETBACK RIGHT HERE TO DO FOR PARKING.
[00:45:01]
IS WHEN WE WERE TRYING TO SAVE, UH, WITHOUT HAVING US TO GET A SECOND LOCATION.SO THEY WANTED US TO GET A HIGHER FENCE.
THEN WE WENT DOWN THE 10 FENCE, THEN WE WENT DOWN TO EIGHT FOOT FENCE BECAUSE I WAS SPEAKING WITH THE NEIGHBORS AND THEY SAID, YOU KNOW, THEY DIDN'T WIND HAVE THESE BIG OLD FENCES EITHER ON THERE.
SO WE JUST SAID WE'RE TRYING TO DO WHAT WE CAN TO APPEASE THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION.
SO WE JUST SAID IF WE NEED TO DO AN EIGHT FOOT FENCE, UM, TO BE ABLE TO HAVE CERTAIN RIDES OR JUST WHATEVER WE NEED TO.
BUT ACTUALLY SIX FOOT FENCE WOULD ACTUALLY BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH FOR WHAT WE HAVE.
SO I'M LOOKING ON GOOGLE MAPS AND IT LOOKS LIKE YOU STORE YOUR ENTIRE AMUSEMENT PARK THERE.
IS THAT CURRENTLY HOW IT IS? NO, EVERYTHING'S ALREADY BEEN MOVED.
AND YOU'RE PROPOSING TO ENTER LIKE A LITTLE ENTRANCE FROM WEST FRENCH? THAT AND OUR, OUR FRONT, OUR FRONT IS ALREADY HERE.
THERE'S A DRIVEWAY RIGHT HERE AND THERE'S A GATE RIGHT HERE.
SO THIS IS ACTUALLY THE FRONT OF PART OF IT.
AND THEN THERE'S ANOTHER DRIVEWAY RIGHT HERE WITH ANOTHER GATE RIGHT HERE.
SO WHAT WHAT WE'RE DOING IS JUST, AND THE ONLY REASON WE SAY WE'RE GONNA COME IN THIS WAY IS BECAUSE ONE OF THE CONCERNS WITH THE, WITH THE PEOPLE SAYING IS THAT IF WE'RE COMING OUT WITH EQUIPMENT, THEY DON'T WANT US BLOCKING ZAMO WITH OUR EQUIPMENT, WHICH WE'VE BEEN DOING FOR OVER 10 YEARS.
BUT WE JUST SAID, OKAY, WELL IF YOU LIKE, WE'LL DRIVE UP FRENCH DRIVE IN THIS WAY AND THEN DRIVE OUT.
WE'RE JUST TRYING TO, YOU KNOW, TRY TO DO WHATEVER WE CAN JUST TO HELP WHATEVER THE NEIGHBORS FEEL.
SO THERE'LL BE A CLEAN, OPEN DRIVEWAY BETWEEN YOU AND THE NEIGHBOR THAT'S BEEN COMPLAINING? YES.
AND THERE'S ACTUALLY ALREADY A DRIVEWAY THAT THAT'S BEEN THERE FOR WHEN THE HOUSE, WELL, THIS USED TO BE AN ACTUAL HOUSE AND UH, AND A BUSINESS RIGHT HERE BEFORE THE CITY KNOCKED IT DOWN.
SO IT WAS ABANDONED FOR YEARS.
AND, UM, BUT THERE'S A DRIVEWAY RIGHT HERE AND THEN THERE'S ACTUALLY A SIDEWALK TO GET IN.
SO THIS IS ACTUALLY THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING.
AND THEN THIS USED TO BE ANOTHER BUILDING RIGHT HERE WHERE THE AUTO UPHOLSTERY SHOP WAS.
SO WHEN I, WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE LAND AND MY, UH, MY OTHER MAIN BUILDING IS RIGHT HERE.
BUT WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THIS LAND, THERE USED TO BE A HOME RIGHT HERE.
AND THEN THERE USED TO BE A, A COMMERCIAL BUILDING RIGHT HERE.
AND UM, WHEN THE GUY LEFT THE, HE JUST LEFT IT ABANDONED.
IT WAS ABANDONED FOR YEARS AND THE CITY LITERALLY CAME AND KNOCKED IT DOWN.
'CAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS JUST, UM, IT WAS JUST TOO ROTTED AWAY.
UM, AND THEN THAT'S WHEN I ENDED UP BUYING THE PROPERTY.
UM, AND THEN I WENT AHEAD AND FENCED IT OFF AND THEN WE'VE BEEN USING IT FOR PARKING EVER SINCE.
BUT I JUST, THEY, I DIDN'T KNOW IT WASN'T ZONE FOR PARKING THE, THE WAY I NEEDED TO BE.
UH, THANKS FOR THE PRESENTATION.
YOU KNOW, VERY WELL, UH, THOUGHT OUT AND, AND, UH, APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE DOING FOR THE COMMUNITY AND AND YOUR BUSINESS.
I DO WANNA SUPPORT THE STAFF AND THE REASON, YOU KNOW, THEY RECOMMENDED DENIAL.
UM, I UNDERSTAND, BUT THEN I ALSO UNDERSTAND AND, AND SO THAT'S WHY THE PLANNING COMMISSION EXISTS.
SO YOU CAN COME HERE AND WE CAN TAKE A LOOK AT IT.
UM, I, I I SEE THAT WE'RE BASICALLY, YOU, YOU KNOW, IT'S USE THAT YOU HAD THAT YOU'RE CONTINUING TO DO UNDER DIFFERENT CONDITIONAL USE.
UM, FOR ON THE SETBACKS, THOSE ARE, I MEAN, EIGHT FOOT, THERE'S NOT A REQUIREMENT 'CAUSE THIS IS A, BUT SOME OF IT'S A BUDDING COMMERCIAL.
SO I THINK THE GENTLEMAN THAT'S NOT IN SUPPORT, HE, HE SAID IT WAS ZONE C SOMETHING.
IT IS A RESIDENCE THAT'S, UM, ON THE PROPERTY THAT ZONE C TWO.
SO WOULD THE NORMAL ABUTTING OF COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL NOT APPLY? RIGHT.
THE, THE CODE REQUIREMENTS, THEY WOULD BE FORCED TO DO A SIX FOOT FENCE, SOLID FENCE IF YOU'RE A BUDDING RESIDENTIAL USES MM-HMM
SO THEY WOULD BE, UM, SUBJECTED TO DO A SIX FOOT FENCE.
THE EIGHT FOOT WOULD NEED A VARIANCE OR A REQUEST, WHICH COULD ACTUALLY BE APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL DURING THE ZONING CASE.
THIS IS JUST SOMETHING THAT THE NEIGHBORHOOD IS ASKING FOR IS THE EIGHT FOOT? YES.
DID YOU SAY THE, UH, THE PERSON THAT IS, UH, BEHIND YOU THAT IS IN OPPOSITION OF THIS, DID THEY RECENTLY MOVE IN? IS THAT WHAT YOU SAID? YES.
AND YOU WERE THERE LONG, LONG BEFORE? YES, I'VE BEEN THERE 25 YEARS AND THEY MOVED IN ABOUT A YEAR AGO.
ANY, UH, OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE COMMISSIONERS? NO.
WE'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION I MOVE TO APPROVE APPLICANT'S REQUEST.
SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST BY, UH, COMMISSIONER PROFIT AND A SECOND.
COMMISSIONER COOPER ROLL CALL.
[00:50:01]
THANK.KELLY SANDERS, PLANNING MANAGER WITH THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO.
UH, ITEM NUMBER 12 IS A REQUEST, UH, FOR APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE KELLY SOUTH SAN PUEBLO COMMUNITY PLAN, UH, FROM BY CHANGING THE LAND USE CLASSIFICATION FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO REGIONAL COMMERCIAL.
LOCATED AT 1 1 3 9 NEW LAREDO HIGHWAY.
THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM QUINTANA NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION AND OUTSIDE 200 FEET, WE RECEIVED AN ADDITIONAL 24 IN FAVOR.
UH, THE PROPOSED PLAN AMENDMENT FROM NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO REGIONAL COMMERCIAL IS REQUESTED TO REZONE THE PROPERTY FROM C TWO COMMERCIAL DISTRICT TO C3 GENERAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.
THE PROPOSED REGIONAL COMMERCIAL LAND USE IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES.
THE PROPOSED REGIONAL COMMERCIAL REDESIGNATION IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE ESTABLISHED CHARACTER OF THE SURROUNDING AREA.
THE NEW LAREDO HIGHWAY CORRIDOR IS CURRENTLY DEFINED BY COMMUNITY, COMMERCIAL AND NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL TO THE SOUTH AND NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL AND PUBLIC INSTITUTIONAL TO THE NORTH.
THE EXISTING LAND USE DESIGNATIONS ARE STRATEGICALLY PLACED TO PROVIDE A NECESSARY TRANSITION INTO THE ADJACENT NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENCE OR THE ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD WITHIN THE SA TOMORROW.
REGIONAL COMMERCIAL IS DEFINED BY ITS HIGH INTENSITY AND ITS ROLE IN SERVING A LARGE CITYWIDE MARKET RATHER THAN JUST THE IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORHOOD.
AND I DO BELIEVE THAT THE APPLICANT IS GOING TO POTENTIALLY, UH, AMEND THEIR REQUEST TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO ALIGN WITH AN EX, UH, ALSO AN AMENDMENT FOR A C TWO CD BASED ZONING.
UM, STAFF RECOMMENDS DENIAL AND THE APPLICANT IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
MY NAME IS CARLOS ALBA WITH ALAMO CONSULTING SERVICES AND I HAVE, UH, THE PROPERTY OWNER HERE, CARLOS JIMENEZ.
CAN YOU STATE YOUR ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD PLEASE? YES.
SO THE, UH, PROPERTY OWNER IS PROPOSING TO, UH, REZONE A PORTION OF HIS PROPERTY, WHICH IS, UM, OKAY, THE BACK L SHAPE OF THE PROPERTY THAT'S CURRENTLY ZONED C TWO.
THE, THE FRONT PORTION RIGHT HERE IS THE C3 MI.
MR. JIMENEZ ALREADY HAS A CURRENT CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY, UH, FOR THE WHOLE PROPERTY ISSUED BY DSD RECENTLY, UH, FOR, UM, VEHICLE SALES AND FULL SERVICE REPAIR.
SO THE, WHAT WHAT HE'S TRYING TO DO IS EXTEND THE USE TO THE BACK OF THE CURRENT PROPERTY, WHICH IS CURRENTLY ZONE AS I WAS MENTIONING, C TWO.
BUT, UH, ORIGINALLY, UH, MR. JIMENEZ APPLIED FOR THIS UNDER A C3, UH, PROPOSAL.
BUT, UH, WE WOULD LIKE TO AMEND THAT TO A, UM, C TWO CD CONDITIONAL FOR THAT SPECIFIC, UH, USE TO BE ALLOWED IN THE, IN THE BACK PORTION OF THE PROPERTY.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S POSSIBLE TO DISPLAY IT.
THE LEASE OF ALL MY, MY NEIGHBORS,
[00:55:01]
JUST FOR CONTEXT, I THINK IT'S BACKWARDS.AND, AND, UM, THE, THE PROPERTY OWNER HAD, HAS, UH, IDENTIFIED SOME OTHER EXISTING USES ALONG THE CORRIDOR RIGHT HERE.
VEHICLE SALES RIGHT THERE, HERE, HERE.
SO, UM, HE ALREADY HAS AN EXISTING 1111 PROPERTY WITH HE, HE COUNTED 11 PROPERTIES IN THE, IN THE, UH, IN THE AREA, IN THE VICINITY OF HIS PROPERTY FOR RELATED USES.
AND, UM, HE ALREADY HAS THE CURRENT VALID EXISTING COO FOR AUTO SALES AND FULL REPAIR.
HE ONLY WANTS JUST TO, UH, EXTEND THAT TO THE BACK PORTION OF HIS PROPERTY.
SO THAT'S PRETTY MUCH OUR PRESENTATION.
WE'LL MOVE ON TO COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS.
WE'LL START ON THE RIGHT WITH COMMISSIONER COOPER.
DOES THE AMENDED REQUEST APPLY TO THE ENTIRE LOT OR JUST THE PER PORTION THAT'S ALREADY C ONE OR NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL? WELL, THE, THE FRONT PORTION AS I WAS MENTIONING, IS ALREADY C3, SO IT WOULD BE INSTEAD OF THE ORIGINALLY, UH, HE HAD, UM, UM, NOTED ORIGINALLY C3, UM, IN, IN ORDER TO BE, UM, TO NOT RAISE ANY CONCERNS FROM, FROM NEIGHBORS, IT'LL BE INSTEAD OF A C3 JUST CONDITIONAL CD JUST IN THE BACK PORTION.
SO I'M GONNA ADD THE APPLICATION IS FOR THE ENTIRE PROPERTY THAT WAS WHAT WAS SUBMITTED.
AND THAT WOULD REQUIRE A CHANGE TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL? CORRECT.
THE, THE APPLICATION WHEN IT WAS SUBMITTED WAS TO REZONE THE ENTIRE PROPERTY TO C3, WHICH WOULD REQUIRE THE REGIONAL COMMERCIAL LAND USE CLASSIFICATION.
WE HAVE HEARD FROM THE APPLICANT THEY MAY BE INTERESTED IN AMENDING THEIR APPLICATION TO C TWO CD ACROSS THE ENTIRE SITE.
THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DESIGNATION RATHER THAN THE REGIONAL.
UH, CURRENTLY WHAT IS THE BUSINESS THAT, UH, THE APPLICANT IS DOING? OUR SALES AND FULL, UH, SERVICE? YEAH.
AND THAT'S BEEN, UM, FOUR YEARS.
IT'S, IT'S BEEN IN EXISTENCE FOR FOUR YEARS AND WE HAVE A CURRENCY OF O ISSUED BY DSD FOR THE ENTIRE PROPERTY.
THE CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY IS VALID FOR THE ENTIRE YES, YES, IT'S FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE
IT'S FOR THE PORTION OF THE PROPERTY CURRENTLY.
IT IS NOT FOR THE ENTIRE PORTION, NO.
IF THEY HAD A COO FOR THE ENTIRE PROPERTY, WE WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY.
YEAH, THE OWNER'S GONNA TRY TO FIND THE, THE COO UH, I BELIEVE IS ISSUED TO THE FULL ADDRESS, NOT JUST A PORTION, WHATEVER, WHATEVER, WHATEVER.
SO YEAH, AS REGIONAL COMMERCIALS, I, I'D HAVE A HARD TIME SUPPORTING THAT.
UM, IN THIS SENSE YOU'RE DOWN ZONING THE C3 TO C TWO, UM, YEAH, THE ADDRESS IS 1139.
AND KEEPING THE SAME, YOU'RE NOT CHANGING THE OPERATION OF THE BUSINESS ONE AT ALL? NO, IT'S, IT'S JUST THAT YOU WANTED TO ADD, BRING IN THIS ADDITIONAL LAND.
I JUST KEEP WHEN I NEED TO KEEP WORKING ON MY, ON MY BUSINESS, I DON'T WANNA CLOSE IT.
NO, NO CHANGE OF USE, JUST EXISTING.
UM, I WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF, OF THE AMENDED REQUEST, BUT NOT FOR THE REGIONAL USE.
OR C3 WELL, REGIONAL USE OR FURTHER QUESTIONS? NO QUESTIONS.
UH, MOTION TO ACCEPT THE AMENDED REQUEST.
COMMISSIONER BUSER MONTE, ANY QUESTIONS? NO QUESTIONS.
WE DO HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER SANCHEZ TO ACCEPT THE AMENDED REQUEST TO COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL.
WE HAVE A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER LOPEZ.
[01:00:01]
VIS AYE.IS THERE A DIRECTOR'S REPORT? THERE IS NOT.
UH, IT IS 3 0 4 AND WE ARE ADJOURNED.
