Title
Discussion and presentation regarding potential city-initiated zoning amendments related to Planned Development (PD) districts within the IH-35 corridor.
Body
BACKGROUND:
Following direction received from City Council, staff has conducted a review of PD-24, PD-25, PD-32, PD-70, PD-86, and PD-97, all Planned Development (PD) zoning districts located within the IH-35 corridor. The purpose of this review has been to identify uses that are not in keeping with the anticipated longer term vision for the corridor based on feedback received from Council related to a market study conducted earlier in 2018 for the corridor.
Additionally, given Council’s concern regarding the time consideration needed for conducting a long range vision study (funded FY18-19), Council directed staff to conduct interim zoning amendments prior to initiating the Corridor Vision Study.
The purpose of this agenda item is for staff to present its recommendations and obtain feedback and further direction from the Planning and Zoning Commission prior to moving forward with potential zoning amendments.
The attached staff report provides an analysis related to existing long range planning policies related to the IH-35 corridor, the anticipated vision for the corridor, and potential amendments to four of the six PD zoning districts located within the corridor.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission provide direction regarding the proposed zoning amendments.
ACTIONS:
No action required.
