ZONING CHANGE REVIEW SHEET TO: CS P.C. DATE: May 12, 2020 AREA: 3.31 acres (144,184 sq. ft.) CASE: C14-2020-0013 (8803 N Mopac) ADDRESS: 8803 North Mopac Expressway DISTRICT: 10 OWNER/APPLICANT: Semmaterials Energy Partners, LLC % BKEP Materials AGENT: Drenner Group, PC (Amanda Swor) ZONING FROM: LI SUMMARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The staff recommendation is to grant CS, General Commercial Services District, zoning. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: ISSUES: During the Burnet Road, Anderson Lane and the North Shoal Creek Area neighborhood planning process, the long range planning staff did not add the –NP combining district to the end of the zoning string for the properties in the planning area. Therefore, the rezoning request does not require the “NP” annotation. DEPARTMENT COMMENTS: The property in question is developed with an industrial use/emulsion plant (Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, Inc.). There is outdoor storage for TxDOT to the north. The property to the south is developed with an office building (The Atrium Office Centre). To the east, there is a railway and an industrial/warehouse park (Shoal Creek Business Park). To the west is the North Mopac Expressway. The applicant is requesting CS, General Commercial Services District, zoning to allow for redevelopment of the site with an office use (Please see Applicant’s Request Letter-Exhibit C). The staff recommends CS zoning for this property because it meets the intent of the ‘CS’ district as it fronts onto a major arterial roadway, North Mopac Expressway (Loop 1). The proposed zoning would be consistent with existing zoning patterns in this area because there is industrial (LI) zoning to the north and east), office and commercial (LO, CS-MU-CO, GR) zoning to the south and west of this site. The CS zoning would allow for a fair and reasonable use of the site because it would make it possible for the applicant to redevelop a site with a use that is consistent with the office development to the south. The applicant agrees with the staff ‘s recommendation. 1 1 of 14B-06 EXISTING ZONING AND LAND USES: Site North South East West ZONING LI LI LO LI MoPac Expressway, CS-MU-CO, GR LAND USES Industrial (Ergon Asphalt & Emulsions, Inc.)
