(3) The FLUP recommends Retail use for all of this property and the existing Commercial zoning on the site, and the proposed self — storage /mini warehouse uses are compatible with the Commercial zoning district. (4) The proposed SF -2 (One — Family Dwelling District) that presently exists on the western portion of the subject property is less compatible with appropriate and standard land use design and compatibility than the proposed use: the existing SF- 2, if developed, would have a single — family neighborhood bounded on three sides (west, north, and east) by a Commercial (C) zoning district; the proposed zoning, however, would logically extend the existing C zoning on the eastern portion of the property until it connected with the existing C zone west and north of the subject western portion of the property. This land use logic is reflected on the FLUP map which extends the proposed Retail land use along this corridor as described. (These illustrative land use comments can, of course, be visually observed on the Zoning District and Future Land Use Maps for the subject property.) (d) The Zoning Ordinance requires that a Specific Use Permit applicant shall submit a Site Plan as part of the zoning approval process. In that regard, staff has reviewed the Preliminary Site Plan as submitted and while the staff supports this rezoning request, we also do so in conjunction with the following conditions; all of these conditions have been discussed with Mr. Thiessen, the applicant, and he has agreed to each of them, and based on staffs request, Mr. Thiessen will have these reflected on the Final Site Plan; currently a Preliminary Site Plan has been submitted as part of this rezoning request. (1) Illustrate a vegetative buffer, subject to staff approval, extending the entire length of the southern boundary of the subject property, and provide this vegetative screen as close as feasible to the contiguous SF -2 Zoning District that abuts the subject sites southern boundary; this vegetative area shall buffer the entire length of said SF -2 Zoning District boundary. (2) Per the city engineer, the proposed six (6 ") water line that extends nearly the entire length of the north property boundary is to be constructed, as feasible, as a loop line; the establishment of loop is to be directed and approved by the city engineer. (3) Per the fire marshal, locate the proposed fire hydrant as illustrated on the Preliminary Site Plan near the north property line further west along this boundary, as per the direction and approval of the fire marshal. (4) Per the city engineer, the applicant submit the Final Site Plan to TXDOT for their review and comment. 3
