E. STAFF ANALYSI
Deltic Timber Corporation, owner of the 2.75 acre property located west of
17901 Chenal Parkway, is requesting to rezone the property from "R-2" Single
Family District and "OS" Open Space District to "C-3" General Commercial
District. The property is located near the northwest corner of Chenal Parkway
and Rahling Road. The rezoning is proposed in order to incorporate the property
into the existing adjacent C-3 zoned property for future development.
The property is currently undeveloped and mostly tree -covered. The existing C-3
zoned property to the south is also undeveloped. Undeveloped property, a golf
course and single family residences are located to the north. A large commercial
development is located across Rahling Road to the south. A bank and
multifamily development are located to the east along Chenal Parkway.
Undeveloped property and single family residences are located to the east.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Commercial and
Residential Low Density. Given the facts that the land use plan is general in
nature and that the Commercial/Residential Low Density designations split the
property, the requested C-3 zoning will not require an amendment to the plan.

Staff is supportive of the requested C-3 rezoning. Staff views the request as
reasonable. The property is comprised of 2.75 acres and will be incorporated
into the existing C-3 zoned property to the south/southeast for future development.
Therefore, the request includes the expansion of an existing C-3 zoned property
and not the introduction of a new C-3 zoned tract. The requested C-3 zoning is
consistent with the existent zoning pattern for this general area at the intersection
of Chenal Parkway and Rahling Road. Staff believes rezoning this property to
C-3 will have no adverse impact on the adjacent properties or the general area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested C-3 rezoning.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (AUGUST 13, 2015)
