"K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEMORANDUM FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 19, 2023 SUBJECT: Discussion of possible revision to Chapter 118 of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances to add the RE (Residential Estate) zoning district. PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director SUMMARY: At the work session, staff will present background information on a proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance to add a new "RE" Residential Estate zoning district. This code update is based on recommendations adopted in the Vision203O Land Use Plan. Residential Estate Lots The Vision203O Land Use Plan adopted a new land use designation for Residential Estate. This designation is intended to promote neighborhoods defined by larger single- family lots and homes at a density of 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. The Vision203O Land Use Plan also states that transitional densities and lot sizes of 13,000 square feet (0.3 acre) or more may be appropriate when adjacent to Major Collector roadways and existing conventional suburban residential neighborhoods. New development should be sensitive to the surrounding context in scale and form and be designed to reflect a contiguous and seamless growth pattern that avoids fragmented and disconnected development. The Residential Estate designation was applied to two areas in the city. These include the neighborhood centered on Valley Drive and Continental Trail, north of Bursey Road, and an area covered by Little Ranch Road, Meadow Creek Road, Meadow Road, and Douglas Lane. The two areas encompass 259 acres, which is two percent (2%) of the land area in North Richland Hills. Within these areas, approximately 20 acres are vacant. The areas are shown in the maps below.

The Vision2023 Land Use Plan included a recommendation for the creation of a new zoning district category to fill the gap between the R-1 (Single-Family Residential) and R- "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS 1-S (Special Single-Family) zoning districts. This would provide options for new single- family lots between the existing lot size minimums of 13,000 square feet (0.3 acre) and 43,560 square feet (1.0 acre). A comparison of the R-1-S (Special Single-Family) and R-1 (Single-Family Residential) is below. A column for the RE (Residential Estate) district is provided for reference. Discussions during the strategic planning process suggested a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet for the RE (Residential Estate). Additional consideration may be given to modifying the R-1-S (Special Single-Family) lot size from one acre to 40,000 square feet to streamline district standards.

PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director SUMMARY: On behalf of Texas New Real Estate LLC, Kimley-Horn and Associates is requesting approval of a preliminary plat of Willow Springs. The 18.965-acre site is generally located on the east side of Davis Boulevard between Odell Street and Hightower Drive. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The property under consideration is an 18.965-acre site with frontage on Davis Boulevard and Odell Street. The development abuts the Stonybrooke subdivision on the east and north sides of the site. Vacant lots and existing residences are located on Odell Street adjacent to and across the street from the site. The property is currently undeveloped. The property is zoned R-PD (Residential Planned Development) and TOD (Transit Oriented Development). The zoning was approved by City Council on June 26, 2023 (Ordinances 3793 and 3794). The proposed development includes 63 single-family residential lots, nine open space lots, and one TOD lot. The lot sizes on the plat range from 5,412 square feet to 20,654 square feet, with an average size of 6,458 square feet. The typical residential lot is 50 feet wide and 110 feet deep, with a density of 3.8 dwelling units per acre. The development incorporates 3.48 acres of open space, which makes up 18.3% of the site. Approximately 1.76 acres of the open space is located within the drainage channel area that crosses the southern portion of the property. Two common area lots are provided within the development, including a 0.34-acre lot adjacent to the northern street entrance and a 0.28-acre lot in the southern part of the subdivision. Additionally, a 20-foot wide landscape buffer area is provided between the residential lot and the existing residential lots in the Stonybrooke neighborhood, and a 10-foot wide landscape buffer is provided adjacent to Davis Boulevard. Primary street access to the development is from Davis Boulevard, with street connections in the north and south sides of the property. Secondary street access is "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS from Brookhaven Drive on the east side of the development. This secondary connection was provided in part to increase emergency access and reduce response times to the Stonybrook neighborhood, to expand the street grid network for more efficient flow of vehicles, to avoid total reliance on Davis Boulevard for ingress/egress to the subdivision by providing access to traffic signals at the Hightower/Davis and Northeast/Davis intersections. LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Medium Density Residential and Urban Village. The Medium Density Residential designation covers 16.53 acres (87 percent) of the property. This 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. General characteristics of these neighborhoods include 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. The Urban Village designation covers 2.43 acres (13 percent) of the property. This designation promotes sustainable, pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use development that provides the opportunity for many uses to coexist within a compact area. Urban villages encourage an efficient compact land use pattern; support vibrant public spaces; reduce the reliance on private automobiles; promote a functional and attractive community using urban design principles; 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 multistory building, or horizontal mixed use, where a diverse set of uses are placed within close walkable proximity. CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned R-PD (Residential Planned Development) and TOD (Transit Oriented Development). The R-PD district is intended to be used with base districts and appropriate standards to permit flexibility in the use and design of land and buildings in situations where modification of specific base district regulations is not contrary to its intent and purpose, or significantly inconsistent with the planning on which it is based. The R-PD zoning district must be at least 10 acres in size. The TOD district supports the development of the community's station areas into pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use urban neighborhoods, 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; encourage pedestrian activity; reduce the reliance on private automobiles; promote a more functional and attractive community through the use of recognized principles of urban design; and allow property owners flexibility in land use, while prescribing a high level of detail in building design and form. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS TRANSPORTATION PLAN: The development has frontage on the following streets.

PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director SUMMARY: Revisions are proposed to the zoning ordinance related to Article IV, Division 7 - Districts, regarding the building height and fencing standards in the OC (Outdoor Commercial) zoning district. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The OC (Outdoor Commercial) district was added to the zoning ordinance as part of a major update in 1984 (Ordinance 1080). The district is intended to permit a limited variety of commercial businesses that typically require an extensive amount of outdoor use. Most of these uses are recreational in nature, such as golf courses, parks, fitness centers, and skating rinks; however, uses such as schools, churches, and public buildings are permitted. While specific information is not available, It appears the district was created for use where � Iron Horse Golf Course was ultimately r " x developed. The OC (Outdoor Commercial) appears on zoning maps from 1984 in that area, but over time much of that area was rezoned and developed as single-family residential property. Currently, only a 1.69 �y°, 1, acre portion of the district exists in that area and covers the dam and spillway of a Take in the Meadow Lakes subdivision. That particular property is owned by the Meadow Lakes HOA, is encumbered by floodplain, is unplatted, and could therefore not be developed with any other improvements. "I r*4w NOLa`C`H KIC"HLAND HILLS The only other area in the city where the district exists is along Boulevard 26. In 1992 properties were rezoned to OC (Outdoor Commercial) to accommodate the development of Mountasia and a golf driving range. While these businesses have closed, a portion of the site is being redeveloped for the Peppa Pig Theme Park. A small portion of NRH2O Family Water Park is located within the district, but most of the water park property is zoned AG (Agricultural). rr 1 %�%���� lliP l, "yr✓i�iY7/ i-0 � ;� ( rw,y m�r/i r� ... .,, / J .. f,, �����% ,pia , ,��IY'✓J� I/,r G _... q j/N �� ✓( ^' � ). f mi'7 ✓i," '�l N��'!fo 4 "iJ � J��.7 ZO � u /r� W J 10 r y Mfi4✓ �� Af � r, /r��!+f� j aW,„�"�✓:u P� i p ✓`(�1 k� "" � � ii � ,, � 'ilk r1f 1 / U " F As part of the review of development projects in this area of Boulevard 26, the Development Review Committee noted that minor adjustments to the OC (Outdoor Commercial) district would be beneficial. These issues were discussed during a work session by the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 3, 2023. The input from this work session was used to develop the proposed revisions to the zoning ordinance. The proposed revisions are discussed in detail below. Building height The LR (Local Retail) and OC (Outdoor Commercial) district currently sets the maximum height of structures at 38 feet. The other commercial districts have a maximum height that varies depending on residential adjacency. While the LR (Local Retail) district is intended to be compatible in scale with residential property, the OC (Outdoor Commercial) district is not. In order to align the OC (Outdoor Commercial) district with the other commercial districts, the proposed revision would modify the building height to match those districts. This would establish a ratio of 1.5 feet of building height for each one foot measured from a property line that abuts a residential district. "I r*4W NOLa`C`H KIC"HLAND HILLS Description 0-1 LR C-1 C-2 OC 10. Max. Height of 1.5 ft./1 ft.4 38 ft. 1.5 ft./1 ft.4 1.5 ft./1 ft.4 1.5 ft./1 ft.4 structures 4 Buildings shall be constructed by using a ratio of one foot measured from property line that abuts a residential district to nearest exterior wall of building for every 11/2 feet of building height. Fencing In all commercial districts, the general screening and fencing standards in the zoning ordinance apply. Since the OC (Outdoor Commercial) district allows for amusement and theme parks, it was noted that allowances for special decorative fencing could be appropriate for this specific use. The fencing standards are proposed to read as follows. ORIGINAL (1) Fences. For fencing requirements in the 0-1, LR, C-1, C-2 and OC districts see article VIII, screening and fencing regulations. PROPOSED (1) Fences. a. In the 0-1, LR, C-1, and C-2 districts, see article VIII, screening and fencing regulations for fencing requirements. b. In the OC district,the requirements of article VIII,screening and fencing regulations apply. In addition, an amusement park or theme park may construct decorative or themed artwork panel fencing on the perimeter of the park. CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the November 13, 2023, meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission. RECOMMENDATION: Approve TR 23-01.

PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director SUMMARY: Pharaoh Inc. is requesting a special use permit for a non-traditional smoking business on 2.8 acres located at 7653 Boulevard 26. This request is continued from the October 5, 2023, Planning and Zoning Commission at the request of the applicant. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The property under consideration is located generally at the southwest corner of Boulevard 26 and NE Loop 820. The site is developed as a multi-use shopping center. The applicant proposes to lease and renovate a corner space in a building located adjacent to Boulevard 26 at the intersection of Rodger Line Drive for a nontraditional smoking business. The space was previously occupied by a T-Mobile phone store. The property is zoned C-2 (Commercial). In 2014, the zoning ordinance was amended to create new land use types for cigarette and cigar shops and nontraditional smoking businesses. Both land uses require approval of a special use permit in the C-2 (Commercial) zoning district. A nontraditional smoking related business is defined as a retail establishment whose principal business is the offering of a service relating to, or the selling of, renting or exhibiting of products or devices known as water pipes, hookahs, electronic cigarettes or electronic vaping devices, steam stones, hookah pens, or any comparable devices. The applicant proposes to open a 1,707-square foot retail store that would sell vaping, CBD, and tobacco products; smoking accessories such as water pipes and hookahs; and miscellaneous retail products and phone repair services. Information about the business and a floor plan of the space are attached. The special use permit is for the use, not a particular company requesting the use. Information about the company, however, is available online at II11h it plr�...y „y ca ].g . The company has 14 stores in Alabama. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS The proposed conditions of approval for this special use permit are attached. Applications for special use permits provide an opportunity to address modifications to specific site development and building design standards for the site. These conditions are based on the applicant's proposed development of the property. These conditions may be modified throughout the public hearing process, but they are subject to final approval by City Council. The SUP standards address land use, site improvements, and operational standards for the business. As part of special use permit requests, the Development Review Committee commonly recommends property improvements as a condition of approval. This is intended to address nonconforming features of properties and provide suggested enhancements that would help bring the property closer to compliance with current development standards. The following recommended property improvements are included in the attached conditions of approval. 1. Building and site lighting. Any nonconforming wall pack and flood light fixtures on the building must be replaced with conforming fixtures. The fixtures must comply with the standards contained in Section 118-728 of the zoning ordinance. 2. Refuse container enclosures. Enclosures must be constructed for all refuse containers on the lot. The enclosures must comply with the standards contained in Section 118-874 of the zoning ordinance. These standards generally include a masonry enclosure, pedestrian access gates, and opaque metal gates. LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Retail Commercial. The Retail Commercial land use category 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. In accordance with the Vision 2030 Land Use Plan approved by the North Richland Hills City Council on July 22, 2019, the City aims to foster a commercial climate that reflects its identity and community values. The NRH community desires uses that provide needed goods and services, convenience, and add to the overall quality of life. The City should encourage existing commercial vacancies to be occupied by uses that serve and benefit the overall community. CURRENT ZONING: The property is zoned C-2 (Commercial). This district is intended to provide for the development of retail and general business uses primarily to serve the community and region. Uses include a wide variety of business activities and may involve limited outside storage, service, or display. The C-2 district should be located away from low and medium density residential development and should be used as a buffer between retail and industrial uses. The district is also appropriate along business corridors as indicated on the land use plan.

DRC RECOMMENDATION. The current development policy in North Richland Hills is to closely monitor land uses in the city in order to establish an optimal mix of residential, commercial, restaurant, retail, and office establishments that best serve the varied needs of residents and consumers. To implement this policy, all nontraditional smoking related business uses are subject to approval of a special use permit or other zoning action. The Development Review Committee's (DRC) recommendation for denial of the special use permit application is based on the following. 1. The use does not fill a service gap or demand in the community. 2. The use may result in a perceived negative impact on the community. 3. The use may not achieve City goals to improve and upgrade commercial centers. CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the October 23, 2023, meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

On top of retail Pharaoh also will be providing Cell phone repair set-vices at competitive prices with warranties and guarantees. Pharaoh Inc already has 14 locations in the State of Alabama and is looking to expand out of state. Our new facility will be updated with our new branding and high quality floor planning. In every location we have the employees become very close to each other and the customers through developing relationships and being an overall good addition to the communities we have entered. We are wanting to develop a location in this area so that we may introduce good quality products at a competitive price for the people in North Richland Hills. I understand that some vape stores or companies that handle similar products do not have the best reputation and can understand the hesitation of approval. Pharaoh has gone through the proper steps to ensure that some of the main big problems are solved and taken care of. Just like bars and ABC stores, we take all the necessary precautions to ensure that the sale of these products that are regulated to only certain age groups are fully followed and that no mistakes are made. We train all employees on how to notice if the person purchasing is intending on purchasing for minorities and constantly reteach about proper age verification to follow the laws set by the ABC board. We make it our mission to ensure full compliance with all laws in place and to have Pharaoh become a beautiful addition to a community rather than a blemish. Thank you for your consideration and we look forward to your response.

"K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEMORANDUM FROM: Planning & Zoning Department DATE: October 19, 2023 SUBJECT: ZC23-0081 Public hearing and consideration of a request from Kimley Horn and Associates for a special development plan for a new Smithfield Masonic Lodge building at 6820-6828 Mickey Court, being 0.82 acres described as Lots 13-15, Block 3, WE Odell Addition. (CONTINUED FROM THE SEPTEMBER 21, 2023, PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING). PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director SUMMARY: On behalf of Smithfield Masonic Lodge and Presidium Development LLC, Kimley-Horn and Associates is requesting a special development plan for the Smithfield Masonic Lodge on a 0.82-acre site generally located between the east end of Mickey Street and Davis Boulevard north of Northeast Parkway. The Planning and Zoning Commission opened the public hearing and considered this request at the September 21, 2023, meeting. Following the applicant's presentation and discussion of the item, the Commission requested the applicant follow up on several topics at the next meeting. These topics included building architecture, site layout, and the connection to Mickey Street. The Commission voted to continue the public hearing to the October 19, 2023, meeting. The minutes from the September 21 meeting are attached for reference. The applicant has submitted an updated site plan and building elevations and a new conceptual landscape plan. Copies of the updated documents are attached. UPDATES SINCE SEPTEMBER 21 MEETING Below is a summary of the updates made to the application since the Commission last considered it. To review the previous proposal presented to the Planning & Zoning Commission on September 21, ii„2.,E,12e, .,,cinch, ,,, Ir�,ii, ,,ll„ii„ir 1k. SITE PLAN • General Site Layout. After considerable review, the applicant has kept the general layout of the site consistent with the previous plan. The rationale for keeping the site plan unchanged include: o The quantity, proximity, and accessibility of parking to the Lodge's primary building entrance for its members. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS o The location of the building as it relates to the single-family residences to the north and west. o Encouraging traffic flow south out to Northeast Parkway through the internal layout of parking stalls and one-way drive aisles. o An acknowledgement that this northernmost tip of the Transit Oriented Development District may be appropriate as a transition to a more conventional suburban site design. The plan could therefore be considered a blend of 0-1 Office and TOD Transit Oriented Development standards. • Building Setback. The building setback from the north property line has been increased from 22 feet to 25 feet. This eliminates the TOD waiver request for this setback. • Landscaping. After further review, the applicant can comply with the landscape standards of the TOD district. A conceptual landscape plan has been provided that shows nine (9) new large/canopy trees, four (4) small/ornamental trees, and shrubs that meet the minimum quantity requirements of the TOD. At least three (3) existing trees are also shown to be preserved. This eliminates the TOD waiver request for landscaping. • Sidewalk. The previous plan included a sidewalk on the west side of the property that stubbed to the south for a future connection. The sidewalk has now moved to run parallel with the south property line directly out to Davis Boulevard, where an 8-foot sidewalk will be installed by the City through an existing capital improvements project. This provides more immediate pedestrian connectivity to the site. The sidewalk is proposed at 5 feet in width. SCREENING/FENCING • After additional review, it was determined that a ±96 foot retaining wall of about 2- 3 feet in height will be required along the north property line. A 6-foot wood fence is proposed atop the retaining wall. On the west property line, an 8-foot wood fence is proposed. This means that the TOD waiver to the masonry screening wall requirement on these two property lines is still a request. BUILDING ELEVATIONS • Windows. Additional windows were added to the south and west facades of the building. To maintain the repetition and pattern of windows, "bricked-in" windows were also added to the west facade by providing a sill, frame, and change in brick pattern. While this does not eliminate the TOD waiver request for the minimum required amount of glazing on a building, it does address it. • Brick Detailing & Expression Line. The architecture of the building has been updated to feature a more pronounced cornice, soldier course banding, and a base. This eliminates the TOD waiver request to this architectural detail. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS • Storage Shed. The storage shed appendage to the north side of the building has changed from metal/siding to brick.

Southwest building corner REVISED Northwest building corner BEFORE Northwest building corner REVISED "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS MICKEY STREET CONNECTION The project proposes a 24-foot fire lane driveway connection from the end of Mickey Street right-of-way to Northeast Parkway. Mickey Street is currently a relatively narrow dead-end street of over 1,000 feet in length with no paved turnaround at the end. The continuation of Mickey Street appears to have been planned when it was originally platted as part of a larger street grid network in the 1950s. Historic aerials demonstrate homes and structures served by Mickey Court on the property where the lodge is planned today. The driveway pavement connection being proposed provides a route for service trucks (trash, delivery, etc.) and other delivery/service vehicles (US Post Office, Amazon, UPS, etc.) to follow without using residential driveways (or private property) to turn around. Furthermore, as a dead-end street, all traffic that enters Mickey Street from Smithfield Road today has to exit the same way. With a connection at the east end, the amount of out-and-back traffic could be reduced as vehicles exit to the east rather than returning to Smithfield Road. Mickey Street's narrow pavement and proposed connection to Northeast Parkway at a right-in/right-out location do not support the claim that it could become a cut-through route. Odell Street to the north and Northeast Parkway to the south both offer direct, more convenient, and more visible connections between Davis Boulevard and Smithfield Road. While traffic patterns may change slightly, Mickey Street traffic should almost exclusively be generated by the Mickey Street properties. Smithfield Elementary School traffic directly impacts Northeast Parkway, particularly in the afternoon when queuing parents hinder access from Davis. A proposed connection between Mickey and Northeast Parkway would have very limited use during the peak pickup time, and does not appear to offer any benefit or shortcut over the current parent pickup route. Subdivision Code Guidance. Chapter 110 of the North Richland Hills Code of Ordinances (Subdivision Ordinance) provides standards related to the overall public street system, and more specifically long dead-end streets. Section 110-412(3) states, "Block lengths in residential areas shall not exceed 15 times the minimum lot width required in the zoning district or 1,000 feet long without an intersection with another street." Section 110-412(9) states, "no cul-de-sac street may exceed 500 feet in length." More directly, Section 110-369(3) also states, "Permanent dead-end roads shall not be allowed." Pavement Condition of Mickey Street. Mickey Street is an asphalt street with no curb or gutter and it was one of 131 residential street candidates considered as part of the 2020 Street Bond process. The funding limits could not accommodate all project candidates, and Mickey was not included within the scope of the 2020 program. Mickey Street and all its residential counterparts will continue to be considered as part of any future bond programs. Dead-end or limited-access roadways do not score as well as through-streets when being evaluated. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS TOD WAIVERS: The applicant is aware of all TOD Code development criteria and has indicated that they will develop to such specifications unless otherwise specified within the attached Special Development Plan Standards. There are four areas that they are requesting waivers to the TOD Code- 1. Masonry screening wall. A masonry screening wall is required on the common property line between this development and the residential property to the north and west. The wall must be at least six feet in height. The applicant proposes to eliminate the masonry wall due to costs. Replacing the wall with a wood fence requires approval by City Council as part of the special development plan. Birdville ISD received special development plan approval to install a wood fence between residential property on Mickey Street and the Smithfield Elementary School campus. 2. Building architecture. The conceptual building elevations satisfy the building architecture standards except for the following features. The applicant is requesting that the building elevations be approved as proposed, which would not include these features. a. Minimum glazing. "For all new construction and renovation in the TOD Core zone, the street-level floor shall have transparent storefront windows covering no less than 65% of the facade area." The building does not meet the minimum glazing requirement of 65% of the street-facing facade or any other facade. b. Building entrance orientation. "Buildings shall be oriented toward the major street with the primary entrance located on that street. All primary entrances shall be oriented to the public sidewalk for ease of pedestrian access." The building entry is not oriented toward Davis Boulevard. c. Building plate heights. "Building plate heights (floor to floor) shall be at least fifteen (15) feet in height." The plate height of the building is twelve (12) feet. 3. Building frontage. Eighty percent (80%) of the property's Davis Boulevard frontage must have building(s) built within the build-to-zone, which is an area located 20 to 85 feet from the property line. The proposed building has 45% building frontage within the build-to-zone. 4. Monument sign. Monument signs within the TOD Core are only allowed in the Arterial frontage landscape buffer along Davis Boulevard. The applicant is requesting approval to construct a monument sign internal to the site. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS The remaining content provides background information previously provided in the Memorandum for the September 21, 2023 Planning & Zoning Commission. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: City Council approved a special development plan on property south of Northeast Parkway for a mixed-use project on June 26, 2023 (Ordinance 3797). That project includes the development of commercial buildings on the north side of Main Street. One of these properties is the current location for the Smithfield Masonic Lodge. In conjunction with the purchase of this property, the developer of the mixed-use project proposes to construct a new building for the Masonic Lodge near the northwest corner of Davis Boulevard and Northeast Parkway. Concept plan exhibits for the project are attached, and a layout of the development is shown below. The proposed development includes construction of a new 4,900 square foot lodge building with associated landscaping, parking areas, and screening walls. Access to the site is from Mickey Street and a driveway connection to Northeast Parkway. The property will not have direct access to Davis Boulevard. o uuo IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ���i "° . uuum �%✓/ ir,� ' uuu IV r ,, PROPERTY LOCATION ,VOL W InEffumb "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS I' �4 M 1n 61 rr 62 v Mo Q Z JT CJG br :5 T- 7 "I U ol 7 SMITHFIELD MASONIC LODGE SITE LAYOUT The concept plan submitted for Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council review meets the submittal requirements for a concept plan in the TOD code. Approval of a formal site plan package by the Development Review Committee would still be required prior to the issuance of a building permit. Approval of a replat of the property is also required. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Vision203O 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 compact area. Urban villages encourage an efficient compact land use pattern- support vibrant public spaces- reduce the reliance on private automobiles-' promote a functional and attractive community using urban design principles-, 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 multistory building, or horizontal mixed use, where a diverse set of uses are placed within close walkable proximity. "K NOKTH KICHLAND HILLS TRANSPORTATION PLAN: The development has frontage on the following streets. Right-of-way dedication requirements, if any, will be determined at the time of platting. Davis Boulevard P6D Major Arterial Suburban • 6-lane divided roadway Commercial • Variable right-of-way width Mickey Street Local Street Suburban • 2-lane undivided roadway Residential • Variable right-of-way width CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned TOD (Transit Oriented Development). The TOD district is intended to support the development of the community's station areas into pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use urban neighborhoods, 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; encourage pedestrian activity; reduce the reliance on private automobiles; promote a more functional and attractive community using recognized principles of urban design; and allow property owners flexibility in land use, while prescribing a high level of detail in building design and form. This property is located in the TOD Core character zone and has Arterial Frontage. (Davis Boulevard frontage). PLAT STATUS: Most of the property is platted as all of Lot 13 and portions of Lots 14- 18, Block 3; W.E. Odell Addition. A portion of the area is a dedicated right-of-way for Mickey Court. The plat was recorded in June 1948.

The Special Development Plan process is intended to provide applicants with flexibility in development standards to address specific market opportunities and/or contexts within the Transit Oriented Development district. In evaluating a Special Development Plan, the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council must consider the extent to which the application meets the following: o the goals and intent of transit oriented development in the city; o provides an alternative"master plan"approach by consolidating multiple properties to create a predictable, market responsive development for the area; o fits the adjoining context by providing appropriate transitions; o provides public benefits such as usable civic and open spaces, livable streets, structured and shared parking, and linkages to transit; and, o does not hinder future opportunities for higher intensity transit oriented development. CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the October 23, 20237 meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
