Park as a Renovated Park. The Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) within the Comprehensive Plan: <br />The Future Land Use Plan recommends Low — Density Residential (LDR) land use for this <br />subject property as well as the surrounding neighborhood and area. The Comprehensive Plan <br />update of 2008 states that the LDR use "... is representative of traditional, single — family <br />detached dwelling units." <br />Additional Considerations Regarding the Staff Recommendation: <br />1. The city planning manager is recommending that this rezoning request be approved because: <br />(a) It is a logical linkage, and is adjacent to, the larger twelve (12) acres that was approved for <br />rezoning to MF -2 last December. Also, the applicant's intend to use this 0.2920 acreage in <br />conjunction with their proposed duplex or apartment development; (b) The Commission <br />recommended and the City Council approved the original twelve acre parcel, and this subject <br />acreage is a logical extension of the original parcel; (c) This 0.2920 acreage fronts on 201h St., <br />and therefore will provide more frontage for this overall development; (d) This 0.29 acres <br />southern boundary abuts an existing Two — Family Dwelling Zoning District (2F), although a <br />single — family home exists on that property, and (e) Since this 0.29 acres is on the border of the <br />overall 12 acres, it can aid in achieving the following elements of the proposed development as <br />submitted in writing and as stated by Chad Stephens at the November, 2016 Commission <br />meeting as follows: creates park like setting; natural and man -made greenbelt, beautifies the <br />neighborhood, and screening process to insure good neighbors. <br />2. The city engineer has stated: (a) That regarding TXDOT right —of —way, it is adequate per the <br />Paris Subdivision Regulations, and therefore no dedication of ROW is required; (b) A utility <br />easement is required along 201h Street and will be determined at time of platting; and (c) There is <br />no flood plain on this subject property and there are no known man—made and/or other natural <br />environmental constraints on this property. <br />3. The fire marshal stated that he has no issue with this requested zoning change and its effect on <br />Fire Department response, explosions, or the life /safety issues of citizens. All of the fire <br />marshal's concerns can be addressed with proper construction design and planning. <br />4. The public works director has also stated that a utility easement is required along 20th Street. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Approve a zoning change from a Single — Family Dwelling District <br />No.2 (SF -2) to a Multi — Family Dwelling District No.2 (MF -2) on City Block 262, Lot 11A, <br />being located at 1160 N.E. 20th Street. <br />2 <br />
