two exiting lots are part of the W.E. Odell Addition, which was platted in 1947. One single-
family residence is currently located on the property, straddling both lots.
The amended plat would make the following revisions to the previous plat.

The plat does not alter or remove any recorded covenants or restrictions, if any, on the
property.

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.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned R-3 Single-Family Residential. This
district is intended to be a transitional zone between developments of lower and higher
densities or between lower density residential and nonresidential areas. It also provides
areas for moderate density development of single-family detached dwelling units which
are constructed at an approximate density of 4.8 units per acre.

SUBJECT: FP 2020-11 Consideration of a request from Windrose Land
Surveying for a final plat of Lot 7, Block 14, North Hills Addition,
being 0.196 acres located at 3516 Tourist Drive.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
SUMMARY:
On behalf of Justin Phillips, Windrose Land Surveying is requesting approval of a final
plat of Lot 7, Block 14, North Hills Addition. This 0.196-acre property is located at 3516
Tourist Drive.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property is located on the east side of Tourist Drive, south of Onyx Drive. The
property is vacant and is currently unplatted. The proposed final plat is intended to create
one single-family residential lot for the purpose of constructing a new house.
The property is zoned R-2 (Single-Family Residential). The table below summarizes the
lot standards for the R-2 zoning district and the proposed lot.

The applicant is requesting a waiver of the lot area standard for the lot, based on the
existing R-2 (Single-Family Residential) zoning. A letter from the owner is attached. The
plat consolidates two existing unplatted tracts of land that have a combined area of 8,528

property consists of two tracts of land that remained unplatted as the adjacent
subdivisions developed around them (North Hills Addition and Diamond Oaks South
Addition). The lot complies with all other standards of the R-2 zoning district.
Section 110-42 of the subdivision regulations allows for the Planning and Zoning
Commission and City Council to consider and approve variances to the regulations where
hardships or practical difficulties may result from strict compliance with the regulations.

SUBJECT: ZC 2020-10 Public hearing and consideration of a request from
Royce Dale Franklin for a zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to
R-2 (Single-Family Residential) at 8404 Franklin Court, being 0.202
acres described as Lot 12, Thomas Peck Subdivision.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
SUMMARY:
Royce Dale Franklin is requesting a zoning change from AG (Agricultural) to R-2 (Single-
Family Residential) on 0.202 acres located at 8404 Franklin Court.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property is located south of Shady Grove Road on the east side of Franklin Court
near the south end of the street. The lot is part of the Thomas Peck Subdivision, which
was platted in 1969. The property is an existing platted lot of record.
The applicant is requesting a zoning change to R-2 (Single-Family Residential) with the
intent to construct a new residence on the property. The 8,800-square foot lot is located
on the east side of the cul-de-sac circle, has 92 feet of street frontage, and is
approximately 95 feet deep at the center of the lot. While the property is nonconforming
to the R-2 lot standards shown below, the lot size and dimensions are considered existing
conditions that were in place prior to the lot's incorporation into the city. The owner would
be responsible for installing any water and sanitary sewer taps and associated impact
fees.

While most of the lots on Franklin Court are zoned Agricultural, six lots have been rezoned
to R-2 (Single-Family Residential). These properties were rezoned in 2002, 2011, 2014,
2019, and 2020 to accommodate the construction of new single-family residences. If the
proposed zoning change is approved, there would be twelve remaining lots on Franklin
Court zoned AG (Agricultural).
"K
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Low Density
Residential. This 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.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned AG (Agricultural). The AG district is
intended to preserve lands best suited for agricultural use from encroachment of
incompatible uses, and to preserve in agricultural use, land suited to eventual
development into other uses pending proper timing for practical economical provisions of
utilities, major streets, schools, and other facilities so that reasonable development will
occur.
PROPOSED ZONING: The proposed zoning is R-2 (Single-Family Residential). This
district is intended to provide areas for low density development of single-family detached
dwelling units which are constructed at an approximate density of 4.0 units per acre.
SURROUNDING ZONING ( LAND USE:
NORTH AG(Agricultural) Low Density Residential Single-family residence

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: November 19, 2020
SUBJECT: ZC 2020-11 Public hearing and consideration of a request from NRP
Properties LLC to revise the NR-PD (Nonresidential Planned
Development) for City Point, being 50.67 acres described as Lot 2,
Block 1; Lot 1 R1, Block 2; Lot 1, Block 3; City Point Addition; and
Tract 9W1A4, William Wallace Survey, Abstract 1606.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
SUMMARY:
On behalf of MM City Point 53 LLC, NRP Properties LLC is requesting a zoning change
for the purpose of revising the previously approved to NR-PD Nonresidential Planned
Development for City Point. The property under consideration is generally north, east,
and west of the city hall campus on City Point Drive.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
City Council approved the latest Planned Development zoning district for the City Point
development on August 12, 2019 (Ordinance 3595). Since that time, engineering plans
and plats have been approved for all three phases, and preliminary grading has
commenced. The purpose of the proposed revision is to modify components of the
Planned Development zoning district text primarily related to design standards for the
multifamily portion of the development. None of the proposed changes will affect land
uses, number, size, or types of residential units or commercial areas. The changes are a
result of further discussions with a prospective multifamily developer currently under
contract for that portion of City Point. There are five revisions being proposed. Each are
outlined in detail below.
PROPOSED PD ZONING REVISIONS
1. Building Fenestration—Multi-family.As currently written, multi-family residential
must provide fenestration (windows and doors) comprising a minimum of forty
percent (40%) but not more than eighty-five percent (85%) of the ground floor
building facade. All upper stories must provide fenestration comprising a minimum
of thirty percent (30%) of the building facade, as measured between stories, but
not more than ninety percent (90%) of the building facade. The proposed revision
would decrease the minimum fenestration required on the ground floor building
facade from forty percent (40%)to thirty percent (30%). The applicant has provided
the below exhibit illustrating the difference between 40% (top) and 30% (bottom)
fenestration on the ground floor.
"K
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
RIMS i
r
mom
TOP:40%GROUND FLOOR FENESTRATION BOTTOM:30%GROUND FLOOR FENESTRATION
2. Quality Building Amenity — Multi-family security alarm systems. As written,
security alarm systems are required on all non-single family dwellings within City
Point. Interpretation of this requirement is that each individual apartment unit would
be required to have a security alarm system, which is not a standard practice in
the multifamily market. Typically, a building is secured with key fob entry and
security cameras, and individual units simply have door locks. The applicant is
proposing to revise the language in the PD to require "pre-wired or fully installed
security alarm systems in all commercial buildings and any multi-family residential
dwelling unit located on the first floor or ground floor." Upper-floor apartment units
would not be required to pre-wire or install security alarm systems.
3. Parking Structure Design Standards. The applicant is considering a site plan
that would include a two-level parking deck, where a single, uncovered level of
parking is located above ground-level parking. The current PD design standard
requires that a parking structure have "architecturally finished" exterior facades,
meaning brick, stone, stucco, or similar materials. Based on the height of a two-
level parking deck and its location interior to the block being generally screened
from the public street, the applicant is proposing a standard that allows unfinished
concrete facades subject to certain landscaping and location criteria that help
screen the structure by other methods. This includes:
a. large canopy trees and evergreen screening shrubs positioned at the base
of the parking deck;
"K
NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
b. a minimum of eight (8) irrigated tree wells planted with small or medium
canopy trees (i.e. Crape Myrtles) located on the top level of the parking
deck; and,
c. building location criteria that blocks the view of the parking structure from
the adjacent network of streets by other buildings that meet the PD design
criteria.
4. Updates to the Screening/Fencing Plan Exhibit. The applicant has coordinated
with the City on the height of the proposed masonry screening wall along the
common property line of the City Hall campus and Phase 3, which is located east
of the campus. Originally planned at six feet in height, an increase of the wall to
eight feet will allow the City to possibly remove the existing eight-foot ornamental
metal fence and avoid having two parallel fences along the property line. Also,
because of site grading, the eight-foot fence originally planned along Boulevard 26
in Phase 2 can be reduced to six feet for much of the fence line.
5. Concept Plan. The overall Concept Plan will be updated to acknowledge the new
street and lot layout for Phase 2,which was finalized as part of the platting process.
No other updates are proposed to the City Point PD at this time. Attached is a tracked-
changes version of the City Point Planned Development District standards. The changes
referenced above can be found on numbered pages 13, 167 22, and 23.
LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Urban Village. This
designation 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 vibrant public spaces;
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.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned NR-PD Nonresidential Planned
Development. The zoning was approved by City Council on August 12, 2019 (Ordinance
3595). The NR-PD provides for a base zoning district of C-1 Commercial and is intended
to allow for a mixed-use development that includes commercial, multifamily residential,
single-family residential (detached units, bungalows, townhouses) and open space.
PROPOSED ZONING: The proposed zoning is NR-PD Nonresidential Planned
Development with a base zoning district of C-1 Commercial for land uses and
development standards. The proposed change is intended to allow for a mixed-use
development that includes commercial, multifamily residential, single-family residential
(detached units, bungalows, townhouses) and open space.
