DATE: June 13, 2000 LOCATION: Southeast comer of Sandy !ak¢ and State Roads SIZE OF REQUEST' 8.7+ OWNER/SUBDIVISION: Charles L. Bandemer CURRENT ZONING: LI (Light Industrial) PROPOSED ZONING: R (Retail) HISTORY: In 199'5 a request to rezone the property from "LI" Light Industrial to 'SF-9' Single Family-9 to allow the development of a 22 lot residential subdivision was recommended for denial by the Planning and Zoning Coundl. On February 8, 2000 the City Council denied a request for a Planned Development district to allow the construction of a '90 unit retirement hoteP on this tract of land. SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING: North - vacant; LI- Light Industrial , , South - single family homes; SF- 9 PD 109 ATTACHEDTO East- single family homes; SF- 9 PD 109 C.C. PACKET West - vacant; LI Light Industrial . . Item # 11 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows this property suitable for Mixed Use Development. DISCUSSION: The Comprehensive Land Use Plan designates this tract for Mixed Use Development. This land use category "encourages a mixing of compatible uses, such as retail/commercial and office". Single family residential abuts this property to the south and east, and industrial to the north and west. Therefore, the future use on this property needs to provide a buffer and a transition between the established residential and the developing industrial. Additional residential development is not recommended given the proximity to the DF/W flight path. The existing Light Industrial zoning permits a wide variety of uses which would not be compatible with residential such as warehousing, manufacturing plants, and veterinary clinic with outside runs. Non-residential uses such as garden office and/or retail would be more appropriate at this location. These uses are more compatible with the residential, as well as providing an appropriate ancillary use to the industrial users developing to the west of this area. The development of this tract for office and/or retail would also be in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan's recommendation for Mixed Uses in this location. Retail District zoning is being recommended because it provides flexibility allowing the property to be developed for retail, office or a combination of uses.
