BACKGROUND:
The applicant is requesting a zoning change from Future Development to General Commercial for a 0.545 acre portion of a 4.732 acre platted lot located near the intersection of Centerpoint Rd and IH 35. The property is surrounded by a mix of zoning categories including Light Industrial, General Commercial, and Future Development. The property is within an Employment Center on the Preferred Scenario Map.
The entire 4.732 acre lot was zoned Unzoned, (UZ) prior to 2005, which is the equivalent to the Future Development designation from the previous code. The portion of the property which is not included in this request was zoned General Commercial in a City-Wide rezoning in 2005. At that time, the subject 0.545 acres was zoned Future Development likely because it was shown as being a separate parcel even though it was under the same ownership.
Staff finds this request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Elements and the Land Development code.
At their regular meeting on October 28, 2014, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered this item during a Public Hearing. A motion was made by Commissioner Stanfield, seconded by Commissioner Ehlers, that this Action Item be approved as submitted. The motion carried unanimously.
Staff recommends approval of the request.
