DESCRIPTION OF WAIVER: This item was a discussion item at the April 12th Planning Commission meeting, and the applicant has made adjustments to their proposed site plan based on the Planning Commission and community feedback. The applicant is requesting a waiver from § 25-2-1063. This site is subject to a 25’ compatibility setback and the proposed development is encroaching into the 25’ setback on the north and west property lines. Additionally, a portion of the site is subject to compatibility height limitations that start at 30’ and the two westernmost proposed units would exceed their 30’ limit at 36’. The west property line abuts an alley with an SF-3 property with a 5’ rear setback on the opposite side of the alley and the north property line abuts an SF-3 property with a 5’ interior side yard setback. After the previous meeting’s discussion, the applicant is now proposing to reorient their site with 5 units (36’ height) being setback 20’ from the north and west property lines. If approved, this waiver will not impact sightlines at the intersection of 14th Street and Cedar Avenue. COMPATIBILITY: Section 25-2-1051 states that Article 10 Compatibility Standards apply if a use in a SF-6 or less restrictive zoning district is located on a property across the street from or adjoining a property on which is zoned SF-5 or more restrictive or a use is permitted in a SF-5 or more restrictive zoning district is located. § 25-2-1063 - HEIGHT LIMITATIONS AND SETBACKS FOR LARGE SITES.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION / RECOMMENDATION: April 12, 2022: CITY COUNCIL ACTION: TBD ORDINANCE NUMBER: 1 of 7B-6 C14-2021-0134 2 ISSUES: No issues at this time. CASE MANAGER COMMENTS: The subject property is located east of Ed Bluestein Boulevard between the proposed Capital Metro Green Line rail right-of-way and FM 969. The SF-2-NP property has frontage on Hibbetts Road along the southern and western property lines and is currently developed with single family residential and related accessory uses. The property immediately to the north is developed with a single family residence, and also zoned SF-2-NP. The rezoning property and the residential property to the north are both under the same ownership. Further north is property that was rezoned to LI-PDA-NP in 2020. That property, also known as the Zen Garden rezoning case, includes commercial, office and limited industrial land uses. East of the rezoning tract is undeveloped land that was rezoned to LI-PDA-NP in 2021-2022. The LI-PDA-NP zoning on this tract allows a mix of residential, commercial and limited industrial land uses. South of the subject property are tracts zoned LI-PDA-NP, SF-2-NP and LI-CO- NP. These include undeveloped and single family residential properties.

The proposed rezoning will also provide a transition from …
