SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR PET LODGING AT 5417 DAVIS BOULEVARD,
BEING 0.21 ACRES DESCRIBED AS LOT 3, BLOCK 33, NOR'EAST
ADDITION.
APPROVED
Mayor Trevino opened the public hearing and called on Principal Planner Clayton
Husband to introduce the item.
Mr. Husband informed City Council the applicant is requesting a special use permit for
0.21 acres acres located at 5417 Davis Boulevard. The area is designated on the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan as low density residential and the current zoning is local
retail. Mr. Husband provided site photos of the property.
Applicant representative Heather Rogers, 7133 Barbados Drive, North Richland Hills
(5557 Meadow Oaks Street) presented request and was available to answer questions.
Ms. Rogers informed City Council she owns and operates Pub Hub boarding business in
Hurst and if approved, this will be her second location. In the five years that she has
operated her business in Hurst, she has not received any complaints. The renovation
include new fencing, landscaping, addition of a sidewalk adjacent to road in the front
elevation, painting exterior and remodel bathroom to be compliant with handicap
accessibility.
Property owner Pat Amon, 809 Hensen Drive, Hurst described and provided a sample of
the proposed fence material. If approved, the proposed material--ecostone--may also be
used as a gate. The material resists paint, which is a deterrent for grafitti.
In response to questions from City Council, Ms. Rogers responded that she will have
cameras on the property, but would not immediately be available online. The maximum

Mayor Trevino asked if there was anyone in the audience wishing to speak on the item to
come forward. There being no one wishing to speak, Mayor Trevino closed the public

C.2 PUBLIC HEARING ON THE VISION2030 LAND USE PLAN, A COMPONENT
OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND
HILLS.
Mayor Trevino opened the public hearings for Vision2030 Land Use Plan and Vision2030
Transportation Plan and called on Director of Planning Clayton Comstock to present the
items.
Mr. Comstock presented the items. Staff began working with the Strategic Plan
Committee following their appointment by City Council in February 2017. The
Vision2030 Land Use Plan and Vision2030 Transportation Plan is the product of the
Strategic Plan Committee and city staffs work for two years. The process included 19
public meetings, to include joint meetings with the City Council, Parks and Recreation
Board, Economic Development Advisory Committee and Keep NRH Beautiful
Commission. The plans were also shared on the city's website and social media

accounts. A community assessment to identify the city's strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threats (SWOT) was completed to assist with the Vision2030 plans.
City staff also conducted 2030 open houses and other events to visit with the public
regarding the 2030 plans. The purpose of a land use plan is to guide future development
in a manner consistent with the city's vision, principles and objectives. The land use plan
will not affect existing zoning, but may affect how future zoning requests will be
considered. The land use plan is intended to be a 10-year guideline and provides
framework for areas that are in need of special strategic initiatives. It also provides
predictability for development and planning for city services. Mr. Comstock reviewed the
following recommendations specific to the land use plan - (1) conduct further study and
develop long-range land use and transportation plans for the Bedford-Euless Road
corridor and adjacent commercial properties; (2) conduct further study and develop
long-range land use and transportation plans for the South Triangle - Glenview, Rufe
Snow and Boulevard 26; and (3) create flexible and high quality residential design
standards that are more responsive to the market and enhances neighborhood appeal.
He reviewed the proposed consolidation for certain land use categories. He also
reviewed recommendations for the following land uses:
Parks/Open Space - The parks/open space land use designation identifies all public
parks, golf courses, trail systems, open spaces and flood-prone areas, including the Little
Bear Creek Corridor and other floodplain areas.
The Land Use Plan depicts only existing parks and open spaces. Potential future parks
and open space areas can be found in the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Master
Plan.
Land use recommendations: New developments should provide usable open spaces such
as pocket parks, central greens, squares, plazas, and pedestrian passages (paseos) of
meaningful size and value for the neighborhood. Sidewalks and other pedestrian
connections should be provided to expand access and use of existing parks and trails.
Residential Estate - The residential estate land use designation promotes
neighborhoods defined by larger single-family lots and homes at a density less than two
(2) units per acre. These neighborhoods are characterized by large lots, rural street
design, estate-style fencing, barns, and livestock. These properties address a specific
market niche and add to the diverse mix of housing and lot options for the community.
When adjacent to Major Collector roadways as defined by the Transportation Plan, or
existing conventional suburban residential neighborhoods, new residential development
may be appropriate. New development should be sensitive to the surrounding context in
scale and form by providing transitional lot sizes and densities. New neighborhoods
should be designed to reflect a contiguous and seamless growth pattern that avoids
June 24, 2019
City Council Meeting Minutes
Page 7 of 16
fragmented and disconnected development.
Low Density Residential - The low density residential designation promotes quality
neighborhoods of conventional suburban single-family detached homes. General
characteristics of these neighborhoods include a density of two to six dwelling units per
acre and houses of one- and two-stories. Although most Low Density Residential
neighborhoods are characterized by driveways accessing the street, some more
pedestrian-oriented and/or narrower-lot neighborhoods may have driveways accessed
from alleys.
Land use recommendations:
- Promote the stability and livability of established neighborhoods through land use
regulations, development standards, code enforcement, and other tools.
- Encourage infill development that complements the established character of the area in
terms of general housing type, appearance, and density.
- Facilitate neighborhood revitalization and stabilization in those areas that are most in
need.
Medium Density Residential - The medium density residential designation provides for
attached dwelling units such as duplexes and townhomes as well as higher density
detached dwelling units such as zero lot line patio/cottage homes, and existing
neighborhoods of HUD-Code manufactured homes. General characteristics of these
neighborhoods includes amenitized neighborhood open spaces, wide sidewalks, street
trees, alley-accessed driveways and garages, a density of six to eleven dwelling units per
acre, and houses of one, two, and three stories.
Where office or retail uses are shown as buffering elements to low density residential
areas, medium density residential uses may be considered as part of a mixed-use
development. Opportunities for this type of use also exist within areas designated as
urban village.
Land use recommendation: Encourage residential development with a variety of housing
styles, types, and prices that are compatible with adjacent development. Developments
should be a five to ten minute walk from neighborhood-serving retail and other amenities
such as parks and school facilities.
High Density Residential - The high density residential designation provides for
apartment-style living units. These areas should be located near other intensively
developed properties and areas with concentrated employment. Building and site design
should focus on newer models of high density residential that include three to four story
buildings with flat-roofs, hidden garages and parking, enclosed corridors and stairwells,
and shallow street setbacks. Older models of two and three story garden-style walk-up
June 24, 2019
City Council Meeting Minutes

apartments are discouraged. Opportunities for this type of use also exist within areas
designated as Urban Village, but in a compact, pedestrian-oriented mixed-use urban
form.
Land use recommendation: Redevelopment of older garden-style multi-family properties
into more modern, compact multi-family with quality open spaces and potentially higher
densities is supported.
Office Commercial - The office commercial land use category encourages professional,
medical and administrative offices as well as limited commercial service establishments
that benefit adjacent and nearby residential areas, and in which all business and
commerce is conducted indoors. Because of the community's desire to increase
employment densities and daytime population, the office commercial designation may be
considered in place of other categories where appropriate.
the development of a varietyof office types
Land use recommendation: Encourage yp

including traditional office buildings, executive suites, and co-working spaces.
Industrial - The industrial land use category provides for research and development, light
industrial, assembly, warehousing and other industrial uses.
Land use recommendation: Accommodate industrial uses in areas that are well buffered
from residential and other sensitive uses. Design all facilities to address the street
frontage at the pedestrian scale. Consider adaptive reuse of existing warehouse
buildings for non-industrial uses.
Urban Village - The urban village land use category promotes sustainable,
pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use development that provides the opportunity for many uses
to coexist within a more compact area. Urban villages encourage an efficient, compact
land use pattern; support pedestrian activity; reduce the reliance on private automobiles;
promote a more functional and attractive community through the use of recognized
principles of urban design; allow flexibility in land use; and prescribe a high level of detail
in building design and form. Urban villages can come in the form of vertical mixed use,
where multiple uses share a single, multi-story building; or horizontal mixed use, where a
diverse set of uses are placed within close, walkable proximity.
Land use recommendation: Prioritize commercial uses at key intersections where retail
is most likely to thrive.
Community Services - The community services designation provides for non-profit
activities of an educational, religious, governmental, or institutional nature. Schools,
churches, hospitals, governmental buildings, fire stations and water towers are examples
June 24, 2019

of community services areas.
Mr. Comstock stated with 819 acres of vacant land remaining; North Richland Hills at
93% developed.
The current transportation plan was adopted in 2007. The plan has been implemented
and the network is nearly complete. He outlined the following transportation goals (1)
expand mobility and access; (2) focus on implementation; (3) improve economic vitality;
and (4) enhance qualify of life.
Expand Mobility and Access -
- Evaluate specific existing and planned roadway corridors for future transportation
needs
- Integrate trails, transit, roadways, and sidewalks into a more comprehensive plan for all
forms of transportation
- Promote interconnected neighborhoods for all modes of travel
- Explore use of new technologies to enhance transportation options
- Develop policies and standards for off-street connectivity, dead-end streets, and new
cul-de-sacs
Focus on Implementation -
- Maintain the cleanliness and good repair of existing transportation infrastructure
- Coordinate local and regional initiatives to leverage local transportation dollars
- Maintain and enhance streets and transportation infrastructure in older and substandard
areas
Improve Economic Vitality -
- Improve access to employment, commerce, education, and community resources
- Provide for the efficient movement of goods and services
- Strengthen the integration of transportation and land use
- Provide and maintain infrastructure capacity in line with growth or decline demands
- Plan for Transit Oriented Development(TOD)
Enhance Quality of Life -
- Focus on moving people safely and efficiently
- Encourage transportation design standards appropriate to the neighborhood context
- Comply with state and local air quality standards
Mr. Comstock reviewed the steps outlining the design decision process: (1) functional
classification map; (2) land use context map; (3) user hierarchy; (4) right-of-way zone
design elements; and (5) design section.
