DATE: April 20, 2006
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - April 27, 2006
ITEM: 10.A.4. Consider an ordinance rezoning 3.02 acres of land from Single Family -
Standard Lot (SF -2) to Local Commercial (C-2). (Christ Covenant) (First
Reading)
Department: Planning and Community Development Department
Staff Person: Jim Stendebach, Director
Justification:
At one point, this site was the future home of a church. The zoning was never changed from SF -2
to accommodate the proposed church because churches are permitted in SF -2. However, now
that the church has sold the property, the new owner is requesting a zoning change to permit
local commercial uses.
We agree with the applicant that, church or no church, this corner lot is not appropriate for
residential uses. The lot to the east of the subject tract, directly across High Country Boulevard,
already has C-2 zoning, and the lot to the west has a church. To insist on maintaining SF -2
zoning at this location, especially in light of the increased (and ever-increasing) traffic along
Gattis School Road and High Country Boulevard, would make the lot somewhat unusable.
That being said, we recognize that there are single family homes abutting the property along the
southern boundary, and we are therefore only recommending C-2 zoning, which is our most
restrictive commercial zoning district and which was created to provide limited commercial
services to neighborhoods while maintaining strict compatibility standards.
Funding:
Cost: N/A
Source of funds: N/A
Outside Resources: None
Background Information:
This property was annexed and zoned SF -2 in 1987.
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the proposed zoning change at
their March 29, 2006, meeting.
Public Comment:
Public notice was posted and a public hearing was held in accordance with the City of Round
Rock's Zoning Ordinance at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on March 29, 2006.
