I;��]Y�I��lJ1.3�i1i1 Land Use Plan amendment in the 65th Street West Planning District changing an area from Single Family to Low Density Residential (LDR) and Light Industrial. The proposal is for over 18 acres, approximately 1/4 LDR, 1/2 Light Industrial and 1/4 Industrial. Low Density Residential accommodates a broad range of housing types including single family attached, single family detached, duplex, town homes, multi -family and patio and garden homes. Any combination of these and possibly other housing types may fall in this category provided that the density is between six and ten dwelling units per acre. Light Industrial provides for light warehouse distribution or storage uses, and/or other industrial uses that are developed in a well- designe " ark like0setting, CURRENT LAND USE AND ZONING: The property is currently zoned R2 Single Family and is shown on the Land Use Plan as Single Family. To the immediate south, is the WinWater Works, which is a non -conforming use shown as Neighborhood Commercial on the plan and is zoned C-1. To the west is wooded, undeveloped land zoned R2 and shown on the plan as Single Family. To the north, are single family houses and a small mobile home park on Brodie Lane, zoned R-2 and R7A, respectively. To the east, is Letter Perfect, a printer which is shown as Neighborhood Commercial on the plan and zoned R-2. There are other non -conforming uses in the area. RECENT -AMENDMENTS: March 17, 1998, a change was made from Multi Family and Single Family south of Talley Road adjacent to I-30 to Services Trades District. A change was made from Parks / Open Space, Multi Family and Single Family on the west side of Shackleford Road north of Stagecoach Road to Services Trades District. A change from Multi -family and Parks / Open Space on the east side of Shackleford Road north of Stagecoach Road to Office and Public Institutional. December 19, 1995, a change from Single Family along both sides of Stagecoach Road east of I- 430 to Commercial, Mixed Use and Park/Open Space. May 7, 1991, a reduction of area shown as Neighborhood Commercial to Single Family at the intersection of David O'Dodd and Stagecoach and at the intersection of Stagecoach and Shackleford. MASTER STREET Brodie Lane is shown as a Residential Street. The entry to the property is within 200' of Stagecoach Road, which is shown as a Minor Arterial on the plan. BACKGROUND: Applicant wants to expand to the north for additional outside storage areas of concrete blocks ready to ship. Access to the northern expansion area will be from the west, via the existing property, and truck entry to the site will not change from the present location. There are no plans for additional truck entrances onto the site. In an effort to make the site more salable to the community, they are wanting to place a residential buffer on Brodie Lane for rental units, some of which may be rented to employees. The rental units will have direct access to Brodie Lane. There will not be a vehicular connection from the rental units in the front to the storage area in the back. Stagecoach Road does have several non -conforming commercial uses along this section, but still maintains a rural flavor. The homes are generally in good repair and sit on large lots. The road itself is a two lane without curbs and gutters and is typical of a rural highway in the state. There are no plans at this time to widen Stagecoach. This, in effect, means that there will be no change for at least five years. If this request is granted, an� island of LDR, Light industrial and Industrial ry'ould be located in the center of a single family area. When this site was last involved in a zeftal change to industrial, the neighborhood strongly opposed the change. At that time, residents strongly stated this teras a residential neighborhood and further non-residential uses should not be encouraged. Since that time, there have been little change in the area'. The area is predominately rural residential in character with several historic or architectural significant sites, 10 Mile House and the Castle House. Past history of the site includes a change in the Land Use Plan from Industrial to Single Family for the 'Block Plant" site. (ordinance # 15,744, dated September 19, 1989.) In a letter from Stephen Cuffman, attorney representing Dr. Gary Woods, owner of ABC Block Company, it was stated that "After acquiring ABC Building Products, Inc., Dr. Woods immediately withdrew this zoning request. Also, I(bouthorized to state on behalf of Dr. Woods that it is his intention to relocate his concrete block manufacturing operation to a more suitable location within six to ten years." The letter continues to state that "Obviously, Dr. Woods has a sincere personal interest in preserving the residential nature of this area..." Dr. Woods, at that time, owned 10 Mile House, a.k.a. Stagecoach House. NEIGHBOR HOOD, MM M ENTS: Notices were sent to the following neighborhood associations: Crystal Valley and Pecan Lake. As of printing date, we have received _ letters/comments in response and in opposition and questions with a neutral response. 1~ RE S: Staff does not believe the change to be appropriate at this time.
