MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: June 17, 2021
SUBJECT: Discuss Transit Oriented Development zoning district standards.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
Staff is seeking input and direction from the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding
potential zoning ordinance text amendments related to the TOD (Transit Oriented
Development) zoning district standards.
The .ro...................%................................ro.............%.............. ro isi�lic� was added to the zoning ordinance in 2009
II„_i�air� li� irlieair��ead IC:::�ea°�eallo I'7rneair�� di
and last updated in March 2013. The purpose of the district is to support the development
of the Iron Horse and Smithfield rail station areas into pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use
urban development environments, with convenient access to shopping, employment,
housing, and neighborhood retail services. The TOD design standards encourage an
efficient, compact urban design and land use pattern that promotes pedestrian activity,
reduces reliance on private automobiles, and allows property owners flexibility in land
use, while prescribing a high level of detail in building design and form.
Since adoption of the TOD district and design standards, numerous projects have been
completed in both station areas. The code also includes a special development plan
(SDP) process that allows for consideration of modifications to the standards to address
specific market opportunities or challenges in applying the code standards to the specific
context of the project. Between 2010 and 2020, there were 30 SDP applications submitted
for 19 different projects. The review and construction of development projects and the
SDP applications allowed the Development Review Committee (DRC)to analyze how the
standards are implemented and evaluate their effectiveness in achieving desired results.
Below are the key areas identified by the DRC where improvements could be made in the
code standards to address common development challenges in the TOD station areas
and respond to market shifts over the course of the past 12 years since the TOD code
has been in place. Additional details and discussion will be provided at the work session.
• Building heights • Definitions
• Mixed use definition and criteria • Private landscape standards
• Setbacks • Streetscape elements
• Street cross sections 0 Structured parking requirement

Over the course of the next Commission meetings, staff will be seeking input on the
portions of the TOD code that may need to be updated or revised. This review and
analysis will include a review of the special development plans that have been approved
to-date.
Staff recommends that Commissioners visit project sites that have developed under the
TOD code and/or Special Development Plan (SDP) approvals to help in this analysis.
These projects include the following.
• Briar Pointe. Located on the north side of Main Street adjacent to Dick Faram
Park. TOD waivers included:
o Front-entry garages
o Customized street right-of-way
• Smithfield Villas. Located on the east side of Davis Boulevard between Northeast
Parkway and Odell Street. This development is 100% complete and did not require
any Special Development Plan approvals. The development met all TOD Code
standards.
• Individual residences. Four (4) individual residences have been constructed in
the TOD and have met the TOD standards, including window area and setback.
These include-
* 7800, 7802 and 7804 Arthur Drive. Note: The homeowners on these lots
escrowed funds to defer sidewalk construction to a future date.

• Iron Horse Commons. Located on the east and west sides of Iron Horse
Boulevard north of Browning Drive. „��,I 1, llI ,iilft.', , ll,ca......11 ll„ „ern„ca, and GI::3m ,J!c:a„ir�,ii, llI ,iilft.a , ll,ca„

o Mixed use criteria to allow primary residential use.
o Minimum lot width for single family
■ Minimum 40 feet required for detached units; 27 detached single
family lots approved less than 40 feet in width.
■ Minimum 25 feet required for attached units (townhomes); 22-foot
width approved.
o Front fagade window coverage. The TOD code requires 30% of all street-
facing facades have window/door openings. City Council approved 20% for
side street facing facades.
o Open space distribution. The Iron Horse Regulating Plan required a large
centralized open space or park in the area. The approved application
allowed the open spaces to be distributed throughout the development
rather than be centralized.

builders in this community and have an online presence. Cadence Homes has a
model on site as well. TOD waivers for this community included-
• Change in TOD Character Zone. The Smithfield Regulating Plan called for
"Arterial Mixed Use," which required primarily commercial uses.
• Townhome lot width. The minimum width of a townhome lot or other
attached single-family lot permitted by the TOD code is 25 feet. The
applicant proposed 83 attached single-family lots with a lot width of 22 feet
dispersed throughout the development. These lots support a 22-foot wide
townhome product (59 lots) and a 19-foot wide duplex unit product (24 lots).
• Build-to-Zone. Both the TOD Residential and Arterial Mixed Use subzones
require front build-to-zones with a minimum setback of 10 feet. The
applicant propose a front setback of seven (7) feet.
• Customized streets. Many of the streets in Urban Trails were custom-
designed to the neighborhood. Sidewalks were approved to be 5 feet rather
than the minimum 6-foot required by TOD code.
• Ceiling heights. The minimum ceiling heights were approved to be reduced
by one foot.
• Cavalli at Iron Horse. Currently under construction, this multi-family / mixed use
development can be evaluated on its form and scale at the southeast corner of
Iron Horse Boulevard and Browning Drive. This development is a good example
of an appropriately-scaled "street wall" of buildings along a street. Please review
this development from the public streets of Iron Horse Boulevard, Browning Drive,
and Hilltop Drive only, as it is still an active construction site.
If model homes are present and open to the public, consider visiting during model home
business hours to review the TOD code requirements that affect the unit interiors. These
include-
• Unit area
• Lot/unit widths
• Ceiling height
• Raised finished floor (do you step up into the unit from the sidewalk/street?)
• Window area

DIVISION 15. -TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT CODE
Footnotes:
---(11)---
Editor's note—Ord. No. 3240, § 1(Exh.A), adopted Mar. 4, 2013, amended Div. 15 read as herein set out.Former Div. 15, §§ 118-
561-118-571,pertained to similar subject matter, and derived from Ord. No. 3056, § 1, adopted June 8, 2009;and Ord. No. 3061, §
1(Exh.A), adopted Aug. 24, 2009.
Sec. 118-561. - Purpose and intent.
The purpose of the Transit Oriented Development(TOD) Code is to support the development of the community's
Station Areas into pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use urban development environments, with convenient access to rail
transit, shopping, employment, housing, and neighborhood retail services.The goal of each Station Area is to
encourage an efficient, compact land use pattern; encouraging pedestrian activity; reducing the reliance on private
automobiles; promoting a more functional and attractive community through the use of recognized principles of
urban design; and allowing property owners flexibility in land use, while prescribing a high level of detail in building
design and form.
The TOD code implements the vision for each Station Area as established in the city's Comprehensive Land Use
Plan and the Illustrative Master Plans(Appendix D and Q. Each Station Area is envisioned as a distinct neighborhood
with unique development and redevelopment opportunities. Specifically, the zoning district will guide the private
development decisions on a market based approach with flexibility in use and density for both Station Areas.
a. Smithfield Station Area:The goals for the Smithfield Station Area are to foster a vibrant, mixed use
urban neighborhood within a one-quarter-mile walking distance from the future commuter rail stop.
This code is intended to allow existing buildings and uses to transition to a higher intensity, walkable
areas with shops, cafes, employment, residences, and civic uses. In addition, development within the
Smithfield Station area would be sensitive to the existing historic resources and adjacent stable
residential neighborhoods while providing opportunities for future redevelopment and new
development.
b. Iron Horse Station Area:The goals for the Iron Horse Station area are to foster a major regional
employment center with significant regional retail and residential uses within convenient walking
distance from the future transit station. Development and redevelopment within this station area
would be higher intensity accommodating large scale office and retail users while providing for
moderate scale mixed use in the immediate vicinity of the station.
The Transit Oriented Development Code provides clear graphic standards for the location, height, and building
elements to achieve good urban design.The Smithfield and Iron Horse Illustrative Master Plans(Appendix D and E
respectively) shall provide general guidance to property owners, developers, and the city on the form, character,
and intensity of future development in these Station Areas.
(Ord. No. 3240, § 1(Exh.A), 3-4-2013)
Sec. 118-562. - Components of the code.

(a) The TOD code shall apply to both Station Areas unless otherwise specified in the code.
(b) The Regulating Plan for each Station Area shall be the official zoning map for that Station Area. It shall
establish the development standards for all lots within the two Station Areas including:
i. Character Zones—Each Station Area is further distinguished into "Character Zones". A Character Zone
within each Station Area is intended to create a distinct urban form different from other Character
Zones. Each Character Zone shall establish use and building standards including height, bulk, building
and parking location, and functional design for all lots within that Character Zone.The Regulating Plan
classifies all lots within both Station Areas into one of seven Character Zones. Some Character Zones
are Station Area specific.The different Character Zones are based on historic and regional
architectural traditions and development intent to create a built environment that is consistent with
the vision for the two Station Areas.
ii. Special Frontage Standards—The Special Frontage Standards in each Station Area establishes
exceptions and special conditions for new and redeveloped buildings along that designated frontage.
These Special Frontage Standards shall apply in lieu of or in addition to the underlying Character Zone
standards.
iii. Street Type Specifications—The Street Type Specifications illustrate configurations for significant
existing and new streets within each Station Area.The specifications address vehicular lane widths,
number of lanes, pedestrian accommodation, street tree requirements, on-street parking, and
parkway and median standards (streetscape standards).
iv. Required Street Network—The Required Street Network is comprised of future streets needed to
adequately accommodate trip volumes generated by the likely build out scenario presented in the
Illustrated Plan. The Required Streets shall be mandatory and shall generally meet the locational and
connectivity goals of the Regulating Plan.Their design shall be guided by the Street Type
Specifications.
v. Recommended Street Network—The Recommended Street Network indicates the future desired
streets to implement the Station Area Illustrative Master Plan.Their location is not mandatory and
their design shall be guided by the Street Type Specifications.
vi. Required Civic/Open Space—Public Civic and Open Spaces shall comply with the standards included
in section 118-570.
vii. Recommended Civic/Open Space—The Recommended Civic/Open Space designation shall indicate

(Ord. No. 3240, § 1(Exh.A), 3-4-2013)
Sec. 118-567. -Street and streetscape design standards.
(a) Generally. Streets in the Station Areas need to support the overall goal of a mixed use, compact,
pedestrian oriented district.They should balance all forms of mobility while maximizing convenience for
residents and visitors.
The Regulating Plan designates the required and recommended street network within each Station Area.This
section specifies the typical configuration of streets within both the Station Areas.The specifications address
vehicular land width, parkway widths, R-O-W widths, number of travel lanes, on-street parking, and pedestrian
accommodation.The character of streets in the Station Area will vary based on the location. Some streets, such as
Davis Blvd., Mid-Cities Blvd., and Loop 820, are under the purview of TxDOT while the remaining streets are city
streets.
(b) Newstreets. In addition to standards for existing streets, this section specifies standards for both new
streets in both station areas. New streets in both station areas shall be based on the required or
32/69
3/24/2021 North Richland Hills,TX Building and Land Use Regulations
recommended designation on the corresponding Regulating Plan or may include any of the designated
Thoroughfare Types in the Town Center regulations (Section 118-471(9)Thoroughfare Types.
(c) Street Types established.Table 7.1 and associated cross sections or any designated Thoroughfare Type in
the Town Center regulations under Section 118-471(9) shall establish the cross sections for each street
type.The cross sections may be adjusted to fit existing contexts with the approval of the director of public
works. In addition, the proposed cross sections may be adjusted to meet the needs of the Uniform Fire
Code as adopted by the city.

Sec. 118-568. -Architectural standards and guidelines.
The architectural standards and guidelines for the TOD Station Areas shall establish a coherent urban character
and encourage enduring and attractive development. Building plans shall be reviewed by the DRC for compliance
with the standards below.
The key design principles establish essential goals for development in both the Station Areas to ensure the
preservation, sustainability, and visual quality of this unique environment. Buildings shall be located and designed
so that they provide visual interest and create enjoyable, human-scaled spaces.The key design principles are:
• New buildings/building fa4ades shall utilize building elements and details to achieve a pedestrian-
oriented public realm.
• Contemporary design for alterations and additions to existing properties shall not be discouraged when
such alterations and additions do not destroy significant historical, architectural or cultural material,
and such design is compatible with the size, scale, color, material, and character of the property,
neighborhood or environment.
• Infill design can be approached with non-historic designs using simple and neutral elements which will
fit better with the character of the neighborhood. New designs generally should not copy existing
structures, but must be consistent with the character, style and scale of those structures.
• Compatibility is not meant to be achieved through uniformity, but through the use of variations in
building elements to achieve individual building identity.
• Building fa4ades must include appropriate architectural details and ornament to create variety and
interest.
38/69
3/24/2021 North Richland Hills,TX Building and Land Use Regulations
• Open space(s) shall be incorporated to provide usable public areas integral to the downtown
environment.
The Smithfield area has an historic existing character that shall be preserved by rehabilitation of existing
significant buildings. In addition, new and infill construction in the district shall reflect the character of the district
during its historic period of significance.
a. Standards specific to Historic TOD Zone:In addition to standards in subsection B, the following
guidelines shall apply for all development within the Historic TOD Zone.All changes to existing
fa4ades or new buildings within this zone shall receive a "compliance" permit from the planning and
zoning commission after DRC review and recommendations on the extent to which the proposed
changes or new construction meets the following guidelines.
Building form and massing:
• Buildings shall consist of rectangular building forms limited to one- or two-stories in height.
• Simple architectural ornamentation at the street level of buildings such as wood cornices or cast
iron columns can both accent buildings, and provide visual interest for pedestrians and motorists.
Do not incorporate high style architectural ornamentation that does not reflect the vernacular
early 20 th century design context of Smithfield.
• Recessed entries provide weather protection, protect passing pedestrians from opening doors, and
add attractive detail to the storefront. Do not recess the entire storefront.

Horizontal rhythm:
• A building larger than the width seen traditionally in the district(greater than 40 feet) should be
divided into modules (20 feet-25 feet)that are similar in scale to typical buildings.
• Large project sites should be developed with several buildings, rather than a single structure.
• The horizontal rhythm of the street wall shall be reinforced in new buildings by using a similar
alignment of windowsills, building lines, floor lines, cornices, rooflines, and floor-to-floor spacing
along a blockface.
• Using building design elements such as cornice lines, ground floor canopies and awnings,
overhangs and windowsills helps to maintain a clear visual division in building design between the
street level (ground floor retail uses) and upper floors.

Doors and windows:
• Windows and doors shall be vertically oriented.
• The primary entrance to buildings shall be clearly defined and oriented to the street, and not to
parking areas or side or rear elevations.
• Clear glass should be used in upper story and storefront windows. No reflective, heavily tinted,
patterned or sandblasted glass should be used in storefront or upper story windows. Patterned,
colored or sandblasted glass can be appropriately used in transoms above storefront windows,
however.

Roof form:
• Flat roof forms with parapets, or gable roofs either facing or perpendicular to the street with a 5/12
or similar pitch are appropriate to the character and image of historic Smithfield.
• Roof forms consistent with the character of Smithfield are recommended. Sloped roof shapes on
one-story commercial buildings are not recommended unless they are hidden along all visible
sides with a false parapet.
• A visual terminus, such as a simple cornice, at the tops of two-story buildings helps reinforce the
character of Smithfield architecture.
Building materials:
• At least 75 percent of each fa4ade visible from any public right-of-way or adjoining properties
(except alleys) of new buildings shall use materials typical of common building materials of the
historic period and location, including brick and stone indigenous to North Texas such as dark
40/69
3/24/2021 North Richland Hills,TX Building and Land Use Regulations
fieldstone. Masonry materials shall be installed in a craftsman like manner that are a minimum of
one inch thick and imbedded in a cementitious reinforced substrate.
• Stone patterns, sizes and color of individual stones should be similar to those found in historic
stone buildings in the area, or typical of structures of this type, age or vicinity.
• Masonry bonding patterns, sizes and color should be similar to those found in the historic
commercial and institutional buildings nearby, or typical of structures of the type, age and vicinity.
• Traditional materials such as horizontal wood siding of dimensions similar to novelty, shiplap or
tongue-and-groove, or Cementitious horizontal siding, in a smooth, paintable finish and of
traditional dimensions may be used as accent materials not to exceed 25 percent of each fa4ade.
Other non-traditional building materials shall only be permitted as accent materials(no more
than 25 percent of each fa4ade visible from any public right-of-way or adjoining properties).
Awnings and Canopies:
• Canopies of wood or metal and awnings of wood, metal, or canvas may be used to protect
pedestrians and create interest along the street.
• Fixed, rolled front awnings of corrugated metal, as found in many early 20 th century North Texas
commercial districts, are appropriate for the Smithfield district.
• Fixed canopies may extend the width of a commercial building, and may be supported at the outer
edge by simple wood or metal posts, as long as the supports are non-structural and do not
interfere with pedestrian passage along the front sidewalk.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: June 17, 2021
SUBJECT: RP 2021-06 Consideration of a request from Baird, Hampton &
Brown for a replat of Lot 1 R, Block H, Richland Oaks Addition, being
1.053 acres located at 8114 Boulevard 26.
PRESENTER: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner
SUMMARY:
On behalf of KAMC Investments LLC (owner) and Office Equity Solutions LLC
(developer), Baird, Hampton & Brown is requesting approval of a replat of Lot 1 R, Block
H, Richland Oaks Addition. This 1.053-acre property is located at 8114 Boulevard 26.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The lot under consideration is located at the southwest corner of Boulevard 26 and
Eldorado Drive. The property is currently vacant, and the owner proposes to construct a
new medical office building on the property. The property was originally platted in 1959
as Block H. In 1998, Block H was subdivided into two lots.
The replat would make the following revisions to the previous plat.
1. The existing lot and a separate 10-foot wide strip of land that abuts the lot would
be consolidated into a single lot. The strip of land is a portion of an alley right-of-
way abandoned by the City in 2000.
2. Standard notes regarding utility easements and franchise utility appurtenances are
added to the plat.
The plat does not alter or remove any recorded covenants or restrictions, if any, on the
property.
As required by Section 212.015(f) of the Texas Local Government Code, written notice of
this replat will be mailed to each owner of the lots in the Richland Oaks subdivision that
are within 200 feet of the lots being replatted. The notice is required to be sent no later
than 15 days after approval of the plat by City Council.
LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Retail Commercial.
This designation provides sites for community and regional shopping centers, commercial
establishments, and employment centers. These sites are typically located on highways
and major thoroughfares at key intersections.

NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned C-1 (Commercial). This district is
intended to provide for development of retail service and office uses principally serving
community and regional needs. The district should be located on the periphery of
residential neighborhoods and be confined to intersections of major arterial streets. It is
also appropriate for major retail corridors as shown on the comprehensive plan.
TRANSPORTATION PLAN: The development has frontage on the following streets.
Right-of-way dedication is not required for this plat.
Boulevard 26 P6D Major Arterial Suburban Commercial 6-lane divided roadway
variable right-of-way width

PLAT STATUS: A portion of the property is currently platted as Lot 1, Block H, Richland
Oaks Addition.

following action by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
