ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting to rezone approximately 54.58 acres of land, located on the south side of Stacy Road and at the terminus of McKinney Ranch Parkway from office and supporting commercial uses to single family detached and commercial uses. The applicant has indicated their intent to develop the single family residential portion of the property in conformance with REC Neighborhood Zone, Small Lot area and bulk regulations, with modifications including architectural standards, while the commercial portion shall follow "C1" - Neighborhood Commercial District.
In July of 2014, the City Council denied a request to rezone (14-129Z) the subject property to "PD" - Planned Development District, generally for single family attached, single family detached (approximately 45 acres) and multi-family residential (approximately 10 acres) uses. The applicant revised the request to rezone the property to single family detached residential (approximately 35 acres) and multi-family residential uses (approximately 20 acres).
On February 10, 2015, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted 7-0-0 to table the request indefinitely in order to give the applicant time to consider the Commission's comments regarding the addition of commercial zoning. The applicant has since revised the request to rezone the property to single family detached residential (approximately 50 acres) and commercial (approximately 4.5 acres) uses.
