I wanted to write in support of an upcoming project going before the City Council this month: The Nash & Berr Townhomes Project. As one of the first retail oriented business on Jean St, we’ve seen the are grow and change for the better. A business such as ours relies on having a customer base that is close in proximity. It is what has allowed us to build our business as a part of the community. We think that having more residents within walking distance of our business and the rest of Main Street is crucial to the success of our community. It is crucial to the development of the Transit Overlay District as well. We are directly across the street from 3 public parking areas and probably 3 of the largest in the city (you would know better than me!). I don’t see parking being an issue outside of the festival weekends and Christmas event days, however that already is an issue and I don’t foresee these residences adding to that issue. Thank you for your time.

In short, the older homes look out of place with all the beauty of the Rec Center, Hotel Vin & the buildings that have a Yoga studio, restaurants & brewery. This beautiful townhome project would be a great addition to add to the city for older couples moving to the area to be closer to their grandchildren. My personal story: My mother just moved to the area a few years back – she rented at the Resort 925 for many years until she decided to invest – she bought a house near Vineyard campground with a yard which is a lot of maintenance for single grandmother. A nice, new townhome would have been the perfect fit for her. My hope is that this build is approved so the City can continue to flourish with quality, aesthetically pleasing homes as proposed. If I can answer any questions/opinions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER ERICA MAROHNIC, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING SERVICES MEETING DATE: APRIL 16, 2024 SUBJECT: PLANNING SERVICES TECHNICAL REPORT OF TRANSIT DISTRICT OVERLAY APPLICATION TDO24-01, NASH AND BERRY TOWNHOMES APPLICANT: Richard Giberson, Berry, Jean, & Nash, LLC PROPERTY LOCATION AND SIZE: The subject property is primarily located at 931, 937, and 943 Jean Street and 930 and 936 Berry Street and proposed to be platted as Block 2-R, Lots 1-17 and 18X, Nash & Berry Addition. The property contains 1.015 acres and has approximately 215 feet of frontage along Berry Street, 207 feet of frontage along East Nash Street, and 210 feet of frontage along Jean Street. REQUESTED TRANSIT DISTRICT OVERLAY AND COMMENTS: The applicant is seeking permission to develop 17 single-family attached townhomes and one open space lot on a 1.015-acre area by requesting a Transit District Overlay. A previous request for 19 single-family attached townhomes was denied by the City Council on November 21, 2023. However, the applicant has modified the proposal by removing two units and adding open space and off-street parking. The Transit District Overlay is a hybrid form-based code, which differs from the base zoning ordinance requirements in form and function as it focuses on regulating the physical form and design of buildings and public spaces rather than residential density or land uses. It governs features such as building height, setbacks, façade design, and street widths to establish a cohesive urban environment. A Euclidean zoning ordinance primarily regulates land use by separating different types of land uses into distinct zones such as residential, commercial, and industrial. It controls TDO24-01.4 2 elements like lot size, density, and allowable uses within each zone, but it doesn't provide comprehensive guidelines for specific design elements like form-based codes. A zoning overlay is a tool used to impose specific requirements or regulations on a geographic area. It adds additional zoning regulations on top of the existing base zoning regulations for that area or replaces them entirely without changing base zoning regulations. Overlays are often used to address specific concerns or objectives such as preserving historic districts, promoting sustainable development, enhancing design standards, or protecting environmentally sensitive areas. In February 2019, the City Council approved and adopted an amendment to the zoning ordinance relative to the Dallas Road transit corridor, specifically, Section 41B, Transit District Overlay. The goal was to define an area in which the newly developed ordinance would most appropriately be focused and develop guidelines to capture the unique opportunities presented by the rail station such as creating a walkable environment, encouraging a mixture of uses befitting the transit corridor, allowing for higher density owner-occupied residential products, and establishing architectural guidelines suitable for transit-oriented development. With this request, the applicant intends to demolish four existing residential structures located along Jean Street, East Nash Street, and Berry Street. The intent is to develop 17 single-family attached townhomes on 1.015 acres, with 16.7 dwelling units per acre. Townhomes are identified as an appropriate use within the High-Intensity Sub-District per Section 41B, Figure 3: Preferred Use Matrix of the Zoning Ordinance where the subject site is located. The 17 units will be in four structures including four units fronting East Nash Street, four fronting Berry Street, five fronting Jean Street, and four fronting the adjacent multifamily development to the north. All units will be on fee simple lots except for the open space lot, which will be managed by the Homeowners Association. Each unit will be four stories in height and will range from 3,181 square feet to 5,145 square feet of living space, including the garage on the ground floor and a fourth-floor attic. The townhomes will feature up to five bedrooms and four and a half baths, and each unit will have its private two-car garage. Tandem parking spaces are configured for some units. The development of 17 townhomes will include a total of 61 parking spaces located within garages, in designated driveways, and off-street within the site. An internal courtyard accessible from Jean Street is proposed to accommodate pedestrian activity throughout the development. The internal shared access easement allows for vehicular circulation, including individual solid waste and recycling pick-up. The following conditions are unique features to achieve the intent of the ordinance to create a more expansive public domain that can accommodate, nurture, and enhance pedestrian activity: 1. An end of block condition at Nash Street, 2. The existing multi-family development to the North that enhances the streetscape TDO24-01.4 3 design for one block of Jean Street and Berry Street, and 3. The Rec/ Park to the south. The result of these unique conditions includes: 1. An invitation to the public space as the sidewalk gradually narrows on Nash Street towards Jean Street, 2. Berry Street maintains the dimensions of the sidewalk that begins on the property to the north and the outward facing garages to reduce the pressure from interior spaces which is now intended for pedestrian circulation, and 3. The sidewalk and street planting space on Jean Street that matches the block to the north allowing the creation of a more generous internal space for pedestrians to gather. An affidavit of compliance signed by the project architect has been attached to this agenda memorandum. It confirms that the project adheres to the Transit District Overlay design standards. Furthermore, the architect has provided documentation that demonstrates compliance with the Transit District Overlay design standards. The applicant has also submitted graphic exhibits that illustrate compliance with specific elements of the required overlay design standards. PRESENT ZONING AND USE: The site is presently zoned “LI”, Light Industrial District and is located within the Transit District Overlay. There are five non-conforming separate residential lots, four of which have residential structures on them, and one lot remains vacant. HISTORY OF TRACT AND SURROUNDING AREA: The subject property was zoned “B”, Dwelling District prior to the adoption of the city’s first zoning ordinance in 1955. The subject properties were zoned “R-2”, Two-Family Dwelling District prior to the 1984 City-wide Rezoning at which time the subject site was rezoned to “LI”, Light Industrial District. SURROUNDING ZONING AND EXISTING LAND USE: NORTH: “CBD”, Central Business District – AMLI Multi-Family and Restaurants and Retail SOUTH: “GU”, Governmental Use District – Grapevine Rec Center EAST: “CBD”, Central Business District and “LI”, Light Industrial District – AMLI Multi-Family and DFW Airport property WEST: “LI”, Light Industrial District – Network Thermostat and Residential Hilltop Addition TDO24-01.4 4 AIRPORT IMPACT: The subject tract is located within “Zone A” Zone of Minimal Effect as defined on the “Aircraft Sound Exposure: Dallas/Fort Worth Regional Airport Environs” Map. Few activities will be affected by aircraft sounds in “Zone A” except for sound sensitive activities such as auditoriums, churches, schools, hospitals, and theaters. The applicant’s proposal is an appropriate use in this noise zone. MASTER PLAN APPLICATION: Map 2: Land Use Plan of the Comprehensive Master Plan designates the subject property as Commercial/Mixed Use (C/MU) land use. The proposed use in conjunction with the Transit District Overlay is compliant with the Master Plan. THOROUGHFARE PLAN APPLICATION: Berry Street, East Nash Street, and Jean Street are not designated on the City’s Thoroughfare Plan. /em
