These three development proposals required seven different applications (one zoning change application, three conditional use applications, and three planned development overlay applications) for property that was intended to be developed as one project. Although the property owner/developer intended to construct this project as one “development,” each portion of the project required individual advertising, property PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION WORKSHOP DECEMBER 15, 2016 121516 2 owner notification, and discussion during the public hearing which may have inhibited the developer’s ability to present the case as one large, multifaceted development. In the future, for development requests of a similar nature whereby a sizeable tract of land is proposed to be developed with multiple components that would require several or more applications, the Commission and Council may want to consider several options such as: Amending sections of the zoning ordinance that allow the planned commercial center concept to include specific “uses” along with language that gives clear direction on submittal requirements relative to the multiple components of a request. For example, amending the planned commercial center language in the “CC” Community Commercial District to include multi-family uses would have allowed consideration of the project previously mentioned under one application which would allow both specific discussion where necessary but also allow consideration of the entire project/property as a whole. This could add clarity to future proposals of similar size and complexity and allow an applicant/developer the ability to present a project with multiple aspects as a “whole” project rather than a compilation of individual parts. Creating an entirely new zoning district within the ordinance that would allow consideration of multiple uses within a given tract of land with its own separate guidelines relative to density, height, bulk, open space, setbacks, etc., as required for any other zoning district established within the zoning ordinance. The Planning and Zoning Commission discussed not allowing already developed properties to be included with the minimum acreage of the development and encourage connectivity to create intent. The Commission also choose to include R-5.0 Zero-Lot- Line, R-3.5 Two Family and R-3.75 Three and Four Family districts to be listed in the Additional Uses Allowed category. If the project is to be in phases, a site plan for the initial phase would be required, with a concept plan showing future phases. The approval of the site/concept plan would establish approval for the entire project, however, the portion of the project that was shown as a Concept Plan could not start until a full Site Plan is brought back for public hearing. These amendments will be discussed in workshop again. ITEM 2 – DISCUSS POSSIBLE AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN/FUTURE LAND USE MAP Next discussion was held regarding amendments to the Future Land Use Map category designations, to accommodate mixed use projects. Therefore, City Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission may wish to add a "C/MU" (Commercial/Mixed Use) PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION WORKSHOP DECEMBER 15, 2016 121516 3 category to the Future Land Use Map, along with a brief description of the types of uses that would be appropriate. The Future Land Use Map itself contains draft amendments of areas that might be considered for the "C/MU" designation, as suggested in Scott Polikov's study. The proposed boundaries of the Commuter Rail District are tentatively shown as "C/MU". Nine maps were presented to the Commission with possible areas to be changed to the “C/MU’ designation. The Commission choose to move forward with Study Areas 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7. These changes will be brought to public hearing on January 17, 2017. ITEM 3 - POSSIBLE AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 22. R-MF MULTIFAMILY DISTRICT Craig Melde of Architexas discussed possible ordinance amendments to address multi- family architectural design. The Commission will work with Mr. Melde to develop standards that address sustainability, contextual design, height, density, parking, etc. ADJOURNMENT With no further business to discuss, Chairman Oliver adjourned the meeting at 8:43 PASSED AND APPROVED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF GRAPEVINE, TEXAS ON THIS THE 17TH DAY OF JANUARY 2017.
