C. PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:
All owners of property located within 200 feet of the site, and the Upper Baseline
and SWLR United for Progress Neighborhood Associations were notified of the
public hearing.
D. LAND USE ELEMENT:
This request is located in the Geyer Springs East Planning District. The Land
Use Plan shows Industrial (1) for this property, with Park/Open Space (PK/OS)
from the flood plain/floodway of the Fourche Bayou. Industrial allows for a wide
variety of manufacturing, warehousing research and development, processing,
and industry related office and service activities. The applicant has applied for a
rezoning from R-2 to 1-2, Light Industrial to allow for future development of the
tract.
Master Street Plan:
Jamison Road is a Local Street. The primary function of a Local Street is to
provide access to adjacent properties. Local Streets that are abutted by non-
residential zoning/use or more intensive zoning than duplexes are considered as
"Commercial Streets". A Collector design standard is used for Commercial
Streets. These streets may require dedication of right-of-way and may require
street improvements for entrances and exits to the site.
Bicycle Plan:
There is a Class I Bike Path shown along Fourche Bayou. A Bike Path is to be a
paved path physically separate for the use of bicycles. Additional right-of-way or
and easement is recommended. Ten to thirteen -foot paths are recommended.
E. STAFF ANALYSIS:
Cheryl Armstead Criner, owner of the 4.07 acre property located at 7603
Jamison Road, is requesting to rezone the property from "R-2" Single Family
District to 1-2" Light Industrial District. The property is located along the east
side of Jamison Road, between Interstate 30 and Stenger Road. The rezoning is
proposed to allow development of a small auto sales business within the west
portion of the property.
The property is undeveloped and mostly tree covered, with varying degrees of
slope. The property generally slopes downward from south to north and west to
east. Part of the eastern portion of the property (approximately east Y2) is located
in the floodway.

The adjacent properties to the north, south and east are undeveloped and zoned
R-2. Undeveloped 1-2 zoned property is located further south. There is a mixture
of office — warehouse and light industrial uses to the west (across Jamison Road)
and to the southwest. Light industrial uses are also located north along 1-30.
The City's Future Land Use Plan designates this property as Industrial (west'/2)
and Park/Open Space (east Y2) for the floodway area. The requested 1-2 zoning
does not require a change to the Land Use Plan.
Staff is supportive of the requested 1-2 rezoning, subject to that portion of the
property located within the floodway, being zoned "OS" Open Space. Staff views
the request as reasonable. The Future Land Use Plan designates the west half
of the property as Industrial, which is the portion the applicant plans to develop.
Light Industrial development of this site will be consistent with the overall future
plan for this area. The 1-2 zoning will represent a continuation of the 1-2 zoning
pattern along Jamison Road. Staff believes the proposed 1-2 zoning will have no
adverse impact on the adjacent properties or the general area.
F. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested 1-2 rezoning, subject to that portion
of the property located in the floodway being zoned OS.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (DECEMBER 15, 2011)
The applicants were present. There were no objectors present. Staff presented the
item and a recommendation of approval. There was no further discussion. The item
was placed on the consent agenda and approved by a vote of 8 ayes, 0 noes and
