Creekside Industrial Park Rezoning Tracts D and E SF -2 C -1 S F -2 Date: Subject: Item: June 20, 2003 Resource: Joe Vining, Planning Director H istory: Funding Cost: Source of Funds: Outside Resources: Impact/ Benefit: Public Comment: City Council Meeting - June 26, 2003 10.B.12. Consider an ordinance rezoning 2.177 acres out of the Jacob M. Harrell Survey from District LI (Light Industrial) to District I (Industrial). (Centex Machining Subdivision, "Tract D") (First Reading) With the June 2002 adoption of the new Zoning Ordinance, the development standards of the Light Industrial (LI) zoning district increased, specifically with respect to building materials and landscaping standards. This tract, located north of Brandi Lane, is zoned district (LI) Light Industrial, and, as such, does not conform to the standards outlined in the new Zoning Ordinance. Under the former Zoning Ordinance, the uses and buildings within the park were permitted by right. Recognizing that the referenced tract shown on the enclosed map has existing industrial development, staff recommends that the tract be rezoned to the new Industrial (I) district. By rezoning this tract to Industrial (I), the existing uses and buildings on the tract will be in compliance with the new Zoning Ordinance. Staff held an open house with property owners on November 20, 2002, to answer any questions regarding the proposed zoning changes. In addition, three public hearings were held by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The affirmative recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission to rezone this tract is conditioned on the approval of several text amendments also contained in the June 26, 2003, City Council agenda. These text amendments address the concerns of the abutting residential neighbors. N/A N/A N/A Decrease the number of buildings within the City that do not conform to the existing regulations in the Zoning Ordinance. Public Notice and a public hearing were held in accordance with City of Round Rock's Zoning Ordinance. Sponsor: Planning and Community Development Department
