COUNCIL DISTRICTS IMPACTED: Council District 4
SUBJECT:
Plan Amendment 13049
SUMMARY:
An Ordinance amending the future land use plan contained in the United Southwest Communities Plan, a component of the Comprehensive Master Plan of the City, by changing the future land use of a 1.528 acre tract of land located at the southeast corner of New Valley Hi Road and Ray Ellison Drive from Low Density Residential to Community Commercial.
The proposed Community Commercial land use classification would provide an array of commercial, professional, and retail uses, accessible by both pedestrians and bicyclists, that would serve adjacent residential property owners and personnel working on Lackland Air Force Base. Furthermore, the proposed land use classification would limit additional residential uses in close proximity which could be negatively affected by operations on the base.
The Department recommends approval. The Planning Commission recommends approval.
