Park/Open Space represents all public parks, recreations facilities, greenbelts, floodplains and other designated open spaces. Single Family represents single family homes at densities not to exceed six dwelling units per acre. This amendment was initiated by Planning Staff to update the Plan while reviewing the Pecan Lake/Stagecoach Dodd/Westwood Neighborhood Action Plan. EXISTING LAND USE AND ZONING: Both amendment areas are currently zoned R-2 Single Family District and are developed with single family residences. The area north of Timberland Drive is zoned I- 2 Light Industrial and it has two office/warehouse type businesses fronting Colonel Glenn Road. FUTURE LAND USE PLAN AND RECENT AMENDMENTS: The amendment area covers two locations: Timberland Drive and Waters Edge Drive, Timberland Drive is currently shown as Single Family on the Plan with a strip of Park/Open Space running east and adjacent to represent the Brodie Creek floodway. East of that is shown as Public Institutional. West of this area is a strip of Park/Open Space buffer followed by a large area of Light Industrial. The Waters Edge portion of this amendment is currently shown as Mobile Home and is surrounded by Single Family to the west, south and east. North of this area is shown as Low Density Residential. Northeast of this amendment is shown as Service Trades District. There have been no land use plan amendments passed in this area in the recent past. October 11, 2007 ITEM NO.: 9 (Cont.) FILE NO.: LU07-12-02 MASTER STREET PLAN Waters Edge Drive and Timberland Drive are both shown as Local Streets on the Master Street Plan. The primary function of a Local Street is to provide access to adjacent properties. Local Streets which are abutted by non-residential zoning/use or more intensive zoning than duplexes are considered as "Commercial Streets". These streets have a design standard the same as a Collector. BICYCLE PLAN: A Class I bike route is shown east and adjacent to the amendment area on Timberland Drive. A Class I bikeway is built separate from or alongside a road. Additional paving and right of way may be required. PARKS: According to the Master Parks Plan, both of these areas are within eight blocks of a city park or designated open space. Both locations are close to the Brodie Creek and Fourche Creek floodplains, which are designated at Park/Open Space on the City's Future Land Use Plan. HISTORIC DISTRICTS: There are no city recognized historic districts that would be affected by this amendment. CITY RECOGNIZED NEIGHBORHOOD ACTION PLAN: This area is covered by the Pecan Lake/Stagecoach Dodd/Westwood Neighborhood Action Plan. Their Zoning and Land Use Goal states: "Maintain and encourage single- family and low density residential developments in the residential area of the neighborhood, while encouraging responsible non-residential development in area currently reserved for such uses on the Future Land Use Plan." ANALYSIS: Staff initiated a review of the Westwood/Stagecoach Dodd/ Tall Timber Neighborhood action plan in spring 2007. As part of that review, the Land Use Plan was reviewed by Staff for possible changes or amendments. The two amendments to the plan in this application are a result of that process and are considered by Staff to be a 'clean up' of the plan to recognize existing conditions. This application was initiated by City Planning Staff in an effort to update the Future Land Use Plan for the Stagecoach-Dodd/Pecan Lake/Westwood area. The application is in two parts. The northern section of this amendment is on the east side of P� October 11, 2007 ITEM NO.: 9 Cont. FILE NO.: LU07-12-02 Timberland Drive. This area is currently shown as Single Family on the Plan. Staff is requesting to amend the area along the eastern portion of these single family lots to Park/Open Space on the Plan to recognize the existing Brodie Creek floodway. This floodway is represented to the north and to the south of this amendment site, and this amendment would connect the floodway to depict a more accurate representation. The second portion of this amendment is located on Waters Edge Drive. This area has been shown as Mobile Home on the Future Land Use Plan for many years, but the area has since developed as single family residences. Planning Staff feels this area should be amended to Single Family on the plan to represent the existing and probable future uses. NEIGHBORHOOD COMMENTS: Notices were sent to the following neighborhood association: Tall Timber. All of the property owners affected have been notified of the proposed changes. Staff has received four comments from area residents. All comments have been in support. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff believes the change is appropriate. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (OCTOBER 11, 2007) The item was placed on consent agenda for approval. By a vote of 7 for, 0 against, 3 absent and one vacancy the item was approved. 3 C DL EL G L n" n M .L a L PK/OS SF to v a C �ad�r�aa❑ PK/OS d C8 fy O fy d a LI p g Q 4 4� 4q D a r P a °° 4 NC SO' + LI va PK! w A°o °DQap PK/OS 0 4Q p o p SF ,4r p° a$g�a v Q 1] a O •op, p ua O STD ao4q,�oo�a a LDR 6 +ta p Q90 Aarxra ti4 °a QQ a p p v or�vop u o o a '" MH to SF PE {° ° v 4 g.
