Item No. 13 Memorandum TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem and City Council Grayson Path, City Manager FROM: Andrew Mack, AICP Director Planning & Community Development SUBJECT: Public hearing to consider and take action regarding the petition of Nathan Spaulding on behalf of Benton Rainey for a change in zoning from an Agricultural District (A) to a Planned Development District (PD) in the City of Paris, Block 351, Lot PT of 8, Acres 76.262, City of Paris, Block 352, Lot 6 & Block 351, Lot PT of 8, acres 91.627, City of Paris, Block 351, Lot PT of 9, Acres 19.2693, located in the 3300 Block of Jefferson Rd- LCAD 22769, 109121, and 106259, MTG. DATE: August 22, 2022 BACKGROUND At its meeting held on July 25, 2022, City Council table action on the rezoning for the Forestbrook Estates. The reason for the tabling was at the request of the developer in order for the proposed home builder for the project to review the residential components of the southern half of the development regarding lot dimensions and structure setbacks. This meeting just occurred with the home builder on 8/17/22 and there has been insufficient time to put further definition to the lot layouts. This involves the neighborhood character the home builder is looking to achieve for a mixture of housing types and price ranges. It is such that the layouts may involve deviations from the minimum ordinance requirements for single family homes in the PD District of the City's Zoning Ordinance. Accordingly, the final PD rezoning should address any deviations from minimum district lot standards as a part of the map amendment being requested prior to final approval. It is anticipated that this can be addressed within the next two weeks. Therefore, continuing to allow the hearing to remain open and tabling action on the request until the September 12, 2022 meeting is appropriate. This was requested by the developer Mr. Nathan Spaulding for this nearly 200 acre land area for the development. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends continuing the public hearing tabling action on the change in zoning from an Agricultural District (A) to a Planned Development District (PD) for Forestbrook Estates until the September 12, 2022 meeting.
