SUBJECT:
Plan Amendment 14080
SUMMARY:
An Ordinance amending the future land use plan contained in the North Sector Plan, a component of the Comprehensive Master Plan of the City, by changing the future land use of 5.00 acres out of NCB 15825 located on a portion of the 14000 Block of Vance Jackson from Mixed Use Center land use to General Urban Tier land use.
The Department and Planning Commission recommend approval. The subject property's location in close proximity to IH-10 and Loop 1604, and the general surrounding conditions, which include a mix of community scale commercial developments that are consistent with a General Urban Tier land use to the east and west of the subject property, make it appropriate for the General Urban Tier classification.
