RECOMMENDATION:
Staff Analysis & Recommendation: Staff recommends Approval.
Sector Plan Criteria for review:
• The recommended land use pattern identified in the North Sector Land Use Plan inadequately provides appropriate optional sites for the land use change proposed in the amendment.
• The amendment must constitute an overall improvement to the North Sector Plan and will not solely benefit a particular landowner or owners at a particular point in time.
• The amendment must uphold the vision for the future of the North Sector Plan.
• Significantly altering acceptable existing land use patterns, especially in established neighborhoods.
• Affecting the existing character (i.e. visual, physical, and functional) of the immediate area.
• Creating activities that are not compatible with adjacent neighboring uses, and, particularly, the mission of Camp Bullis.
• Significantly alter recreational amenities such as open space, parks, and trails.
The proposed land use amendment from “Rural Estate Tier” to “Suburban Tier” is requested in order to rezone the property from "R-6” to "R-6 CD S” with a Conditional Use and Specific Use Authorization for a Non-Commercial Parking Lot. The requested land use amendment to “Suburban Tier” is supported by the location of the property near West Loop 1604 and adjacent commercial uses to the south.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Recommend Denial of the proposed amendment to the North Sector Plan, as presented above.
2. Make an alternate recommendation.
3. Continue to a future date.
