A Zoning Change from "C" to "PD-C"
DRC Date: November 24, 1998
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting:
City Council Meeting: January 12, 1999
December 17, 1998
The Planned Development designation permits growth flexibility in the use and
design of land and buildings in situations where modification of special
provisions of the zoning ordinance is not contrary to its intent and purpose or
significantly inconsistent with the planning on which it is based and will not be
harmful to the neighborhood. Staff supports the conversion of this residential
structure into a commercial property. In reviewing the application, staff requests
the applicant consider and modify the following items:
a) The chain link fence along the west property line does not adequately
screen the 3 proposed parking spaces along the northern property line.
Staff suggests the applicant continue the 6 wooden fence along the
west property line and close the fence just 8' north of the existing 3"
Hackberry tree. Maintain the remaining chain link fence on the west
property line. The quality of the proposed wooden fence should match
the Artisan Landscape' wooden fence on Howell Drive.
b) The placement of wooden shutters around the existing windows on
south elevation would enhance the aesthetics of the structure. Staff
suggests painting the shutters either a navy blue or dark green color.
c) Modify the attached sign paint color to match the color hue of the
existing building. Perhaps, reconsider the color of the lettering to
match the color of the shutters.
d) Provide a notation to the effect that additional electric wiring shall be
underground and that mechanical equipment, electrical equipment and
utility meters shall be either placed in inconspicuous locations or
screened from view.
