Rezone from "R-2" to "I-2"

19.7 acres
Vacant
SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING:
North - Interstate Right -of -Way, Zoned "R-2"
South - Vacant, Zoned "R-2"
East - Vacant and Commercial, Zoned "R-2" and "C-3"
West - Vacant, Zoned "OS" and "C-4"
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The proposal is to rezone a large tract of land from "R-2"
to "I-2" along the I-30 corridor. This area between I-30
and Alexander Road has a very mixed land use that includes
residential, commercial and industrial. The zoning is very
similar with "R-2," "C-3," "C-4," "I-2," and an "OS" piece
for a portion of the established floodway. The Otter Creek
District Plan suggests a mix of commercial and industrial
uses for the location, so the 11I-2" rezoning is compatible
with the plan's recommendation.
The most significant issue associated with this request is
the floodway involvement. Out of the 19.7 acres,
approximately 9.3 acres are within the designated floodway.
This leaves the north 9.3 acres and one acre in the
southeast corner out of the floodway. The City's position
is that the floodway be dedicated to the City and rezoned to
"OS "
Engineering recommends that the applicant should obtain the
required flood elevation from the Public Works Department at
the time of any building permit application.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of "I-2" for that portion of the
property outside the floodway and "OS" for the designated
floodway which is to be dedicated to the City.
