LAND USE ANALYSIS:
The subject property is developed with a parking lot and golf course restaurant and club house. The proposed use for the property is to develop multi-family dwelling units. The properties that are located around the subject property include an apartment complex, retail center and golf course. The proposed use will be consistent with the surrounding areas and will allow the applicant to seek the appropriate "IDZ AHOD" Infill Development Zone Airport Hazard Overlay District with uses for multi-family units not to exceed a density of 80 units per acre. The proposed amendment to High Density Mixed land use will not significantly alter the land use pattern or character of the immediate area as the proposed change is compatible with the already existing surrounding pattern of development.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend denial of the proposed amendment to the San Antonio International Airport Vicinity Land Use Plan, as presented above.
2. Make an alternate recommendation.
3. Continue to a future date.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval. The proposed amendment to High Density Mixed land use will not significantly alter the land use pattern or character of the immediate area as the proposed change is compatible with the already existing surrounding pattern of development.
