Request
A request for a 100 foot variance from the requirement that a mobile food court to be located 200 feet from any single family use or single family zoning, as described in Section 35-399(a)(1)A. to allow a mobile food court within 100 feet of residentially zoned vacant land.
Executive Summary
The 1.46 acre parcel is located within a busy commercial area on Bandera near the Interstate Loop 410 interchange. The applicant is hoping to construct a mobile food truck court there, but one of the development standards requires a 200-foot spacing from residential use or zone. In this case, there is vacant residentially zoned property across Bandera from the site. The 15 acre parcel, half of which is undevelopable due to floodplain issues, is zoned for 20,000 square foot single-family lots. A recent neighborhood master plan designated this vacant parcel for future commercial land use, indicating the City's desire for this land to be developed for commercial purposes. In addition, a CPS Substation is also zoned residentially and within the 200 foot radius. At 180 feet away, the utility use of this property will never transition to future residential, regardless of its zoning. All of the established residential land uses within the area exceed the required distance. The applicant is requesting a 100 foot variance to allow the food truck court to be 100 feet from the nearest residentially zoned property.
