NEW BUSINESS - WORKSHOP The Planning and Zoning Commission was to conduct a workshop and review session relative to the proposed amendments to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance and zoning map and take any necessary action relative thereto. Chairman Spencer advised those present that the Commission would be formulating a recommendation on the districts not previously discussed as well as recommending changes to the proposed zoning map. The following are recommendations suggested by the Commission to be incorporated in a revised zoning ordinance: 1. To retain the "CN" Commercial Neighborhood District, eliminate the "LB" Limited Business designation and combine it with "CN ". 2. To combine "CW" Commercial Warehouse and "C -OU" Commercial Outdoor to become the new "HC" Highway Commercial District. 3. To keep the "HCO" Hotel Corporate Office; members questioned some of the uses. 4. To keep the "ML" Light Industrial District which includes more detailed lot sizes, height restrictions and building coverages. 5. To eliminate the IPAR and add "LI(ML)" and "MG" General Industrial. 6. To retain the "CBD" Central Business District 7. To retain the "PID" Planned Industrial Development District 8. It was the general consensus of members present to eliminate the "PCD" Planned Commercial District. 9. All members agreed that the "GU" category for governmental uses would be preferred rather than having such uses interspersed through the other districts. 10. Agreement to retain the DFW District P &Z Minutes 2 -6 -84 Page 2 11. Would like to adopt the "FP" Flood Plain Overlay District There was further discussion relative to a district needed specifically for parking lots other than those to serve particular businesses. Mr. Hancock noted that at one time there had been such a provision in the City Ordinances. Chairman Spencer and Vice Chairman Cook then telephoned Mr. Wiles and then advised other members of that discussion as follows: 1. .5 = 2 acre 2. We should keep track of those items moved from the Master Develop- ment Plan Section into the Site Plan Section 3. Height of single - family homes should be no more than 30 feet; in apartment districts, the height specification should read so many stories, not to exceed so many feet. 4. A question needing clarification which arose during a workshop meeting relative to the "PUD" District was Mr. Wiles proposal relative to 25 acres of usable land(would this be with or without streets, all in one tract ?). 5. The Chairman discussed the mathematics of the percentage versus the number of acres: 60 %- Single Family; loo -open space; 12 %- duplex townhome, etc.; 18 %- apartments. This would average 12 units per acre and be a substitute for the "PRD -6" District. It was the general consensus of the Commissioners present to use the "PRD -6" District and at some point in time limit the number of units per acre to 16 in the high density areas rather than 20, and keep the masonry requirements existing or require a higher percentage of masonry than is now required at 80 %. The general consensus was to adopt the 16 for high density and require 80% masonry. The following was discussed relative to the "PRD -12" District: The general consensus of the Commissioners was to recommend that this district have a maximum density of 16 units per acre. Some suggestions relative to the zoning map were as follows: There appears to be no "LB" Limited Business on the map; this was questioned. The PD -Q at Dove and Dove needs to be designated "C -N "; On the Master Plan, the tract adjoining the apartments at the corner of Dove and Park which is zoned single family could possibly benefit from a duplex /townhome zoning to buffer the single - family neighborhood; To retain the Lucas property designation as "PRD -6 "; The Keith Cecil project should become "MF -2" with 16 units per acre; District 22 on the map should be "PRD -12 ". Number 22 should be "R -7.5" and retain island for church; There were other notations made as to changes to be made to the zoning map. The following suggestions for change were made for the "CBD" Central Business District.
