The subject property is located in the Morningside Estates Addition located in the 800 Block of NE 38`h Street. The site is 3.35 acres with Loop 286 frontage. STATUS OF ISSUE: The subject property has remained vacant as currently zoned. The use of properties surrounding the site are residential (north and east), Planned Development (west) and Office (south). The Future Land Use is Retail. Therefore, given the proposed use of Office District and proximity and frontage to Loop 286, city staff believes this zoning change is appropriate and can provide non-residential development in a non -detrimental manner to the neighboring properties. Adequate public utilities are available to the site. The Planning & Zoning Commission voted 5-0 to approve of this zoning change at the March 1, 2021 meeting. RECOMMENDATION: Approve zoning change from One -Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF - 2) to an Office District (0). ng: Single -Family (SF -2) Future Land Use: Retail Proposed Zoning: Office (0) ORDINANCE NO.
