Title
Conduct a public hearing and consider adopting Ordinance No. 3912 for a zoning amendment for a private school (primary and secondary) on approximately 2.79-acres located at 4000 McEwen Road, within the Planned Development District No. 90 (PD-90) zoning district; and take appropriate action.
Body
REQUESTOR:
Economic Development, Tourism, and Planning Department
BACKGROUND:
The subject property includes 2.79 acres of land bounded by McEwen Road to the north, Alpha Road to the west, and Blue Lake Circle to the east. The applicant, Andrew Jones, Jones Commercial Interiors, proposes to convert the two existing office buildings on site for use as a new private school. City Council approved a recent rezoning request for this use on October 8, 2024 (Ordinance No. 3891), which included a Conceptual Site Plan.
The property is located within Planned Development District No. 90 (PD-90), which requires approval of a Detailed Site Plan from the City Council for all new development. The detailed site plan submitted for this property features a new gymnasium building that will also serve as the required storm shelter for the school. Because this building was not shown on the recently approved concept plan, an amendment to PD-90 is required. Slight modifications to the approved parking and landscaping layout are also proposed.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No Financial Impact
DISTRICT:
District 4
RECOMMENDATION:
On January 27, 2025, the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of this request.
POSSIBLE COUNCIL ACTION:
1. I move to approve Ordinance No. 3912 as presented.
2. I move to approve Ordinance No. 3912 with modifications.
3. I move to table the issue for further study or take no action.
4. I move to deny Ordinance No. 3912.
