Legislative Regular Agenda
AW. Public Hearing and possible action on a request for a Subdivision Variance from Sections
12.05.010.A and 12.05.010.B of the Unified Development Code relating to the minimum number of
connection points to a major street and to future and existing streets, respectively, for a residential
subdivision to allow an additional 14 lots (for a total of 99 lots) on a single connection point for the
property generally located at 1899 Crockett Gardens Rd bearing the legal description of 19.487 acres out
of the A.H. Porter Survey, Abstract No. 490 (2020-7-WAV) -- David Munk, PE, Utility Engineer
Staff report by Munk. The applicant is requesting a connectivity variance from Section 12.05.010.A of
the Unified Development Code which requires a subdivision of 80-499 lots to have two connections to a
major street. This UDC section states that if a subdivision does not directly connect to an existing major
street, the number of connections can be satisfied through existing local streets. The combination of
this subdivision and Fredrickson Ranch (for a total of 99 lots) does not have two connections to a major
street, therefore the variance is requested. Also, the applicant is requesting a street stub variance from
Section 12.05.010.B of the Unified Development Code which requires a subdivision of 5 — 80 lots to have
a minimum of 3 connections to existing or future streets. The subject subdivision is for 14 lots and the
applicant could add a stub to undeveloped property to meet this requirement. The property is
Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes Page 6 of 10
September 15, 2020
generally located west of Fredrickson Ranch and south of Lake Georgetown. Southlake Subdivision is
bounded by Lost River Ranches to the west, US Army Corp property to the north, Fredrickson Ranch
to the east and a private homestead to the south, within the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ). The
subject subdivision is located on the west side of Fredrickson Ranch and will connect to the west end of
the Jim Bowie Street Stub. The local streets within and through Fredrickson Ranch would funnel traffic
from the new subdivision and Frederickson Ranch (total of 99 lots) to Cedar Breaks Road via Crockett
Gardens Road. All streets (including Crockett Gardens) until you get to Cedar Breaks Road are less
than the required major street. Cedar Breaks Road (a major street) would funnel the traffic to D. B.
Wood Road a major arterial.
There was discussion between the Commission and staff regarding connectivity and future
development, and fire issues. Munk explained that as there is more development, there will need to be
more connectivity to existing roads by the developer of that land. Munk and Fryer also explained the
requirements for fire sprinklers, and that a fire sprinkler system is required for each house.
Chair Brashear opened the Public Hearing.
Garcia read 41 public comments submitted to the Planning Department.
Ray Luckadoo, 316 Bueno Rancho, commented that this project will affect traffic, tax basis, and homes'
resale value. Caitlin Fuller,121 Wind Ridge Cove, concerned with loss of property's value, sound and
noise pollution, increased traffic and environmental impact. Alaina Norcraft, Oak Haven Circle,
commented that she is opposed to the project for similar reasons previously stated. Anna Cummins,
110 Rancho Bueno Dr, concerned with increased traffic and noise pollution.
David Baker,1512 Crockett Gardens Rd, commented that there will be increased traffic, and this will
affect runoff irrigation, issues with water pressures. Nataly Frederickson,1619 Crockett Gardens Rd, in
favor to deny proposed variance. Jimmy Bird,1324 Eagle Point Dr, is opposed to variance and is also
concerned with safety, increased traffic and ability of first responders to respond to issues in
neighborhood. Tom,1020 Eagle Point Dr, also opposed to variance.
Laura Himmelberg,1101 Eagle Point Dr, is concerned about safety due to increased traffic and
response time of first responders to reach the neighborhood, as well as access by emergency vehicles to
neighborhood as there is only one way in and one way out. Jerry Kieschnick,1109 Eagle Point Dr, is
concerned with road and pedestrian safety and how future development will impact traffic. Byron
Zollars, 213 Wind Ridge Cove; is opposed to connecting roads to the subdivision.
Marie Michaels, 219 Wind Ridge Cove,
Chair Brashear closed the Public Hearing.
The applicant, Norm Ashby, addressed questions and comments made by the public speakers.

AX. Public Hearing and possible action on a request for a Zoning Map Amendment to zone upon
annexation a 25.435 acre tract of land out of the Frederick Foy Survey, Abstract No. 229, to the Planned
Unit Development (PUD) zoning district with a base district of Residential Single -Family (RS), for
the property generally located at 700 CR 245 (2020-9-ANX) -- Ethan Harwell, Senior Planner
Staff report by Harwell. The applicant is requesting to zone the property with a Planned Unit
Development (PUD) district to allow for this property to be developed as an extension of the existing
Sun City Texas Somerset PUD. According to the Applicant's Letter of Intent, attached as Exhibit 6, the
subject tract will offer additional recreational opportunities to current and future residents of Sun City
Texas while also providing a few more acres of residential homesites via this PUD. The subject
property is generally located along CR 245 between Ronal Reagan Boulevard and Williams Drive. The
subject property is undeveloped, generally slopes to the east toward Cowan Creek at the rear of the
property. There is limited tree cover. The subject property has a Mixed Density Neighborhood Future
Land Use designation and is currently in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction. Adjacent properties to the
north and south support low density residential uses. Portions of the Sun City master development are
located to the east and south. Highland Village and Tres Tierras residential neighborhoods are under
development on the west side of CR 245. The subject property is served by County Road (CR) 245,
described by the Overall Transportation Plan (OTP) as a Major Collector road. These streets are
intended to balance traffic between arterial streets and local streets. These streets tend to carry a high
volume of traffic over shorter distances, providing access and movement between neighborhoods,
parks, schools, retail areas and the arterial street system. CR 245 connects to Ronald Reagan and
Williams Drive, both Major Arterials in the OTP. Arterial streets provide traffic movement through and
between different areas within the city and access to adjacent land uses. Access is more controllable
because driveway spacing requirements are much greater and, if safety dictates, overall access can be
limited to specific turning movements. Major Arterials connect major traffic generators and land use
concentrations and serve much larger traffic volumes over greater distances. The property is not served
by the City's fixed route transit system GoGeo, nor the Bike Master Plan. A Traffic Impact Analysis
(TIA) will be required at time of Site Development Plan for any development that generates more than
two thousand (2,000) average daily trips based upon the latest edition of the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual.
The applicant representative, Peter Verdicchio, addressed and presented to the Commission, and
explained the reason for the PUD request. There is high demand for additional pickleball courts at Sun
Planning & Zoning Commission Minutes Page 8 of 10
September 15, 2020
City and this demand and desire drives this request. The PUD was requested to ensure that the same
development standards are maintained.
Chair Brashear opened, and closed the Public Hearing as no one signed up to speak.
Commissioner McCord returned to the dais and Alternate Commissioner McCulley was removed from the dais at
8:38p.m.
Motion to approve Item AX (2020-9-ANX) by Commissioner Warren. Second by Commissioner
McMichael. Approved (7-0).
AY. Public Hearing and possible action on a request for a Zoning Map Amendment to rezone
approximately 2.985 acres consisting of Lot 1, Inner Visions Corporate Center, from the Agriculture
(AG) and Industrial (IN) zoning districts to the General Commercial (C-3) zoning district for the
property generally located at 275 SE Inner Loop (2020-11-REZ) -- Andreina Davila -Quintero, AICP,
Current Planning Manager
Staff report presented by Davila -Quintero. The Applicant is requesting to rezone this property to the
General Commercial (C-3) zoning district to facilitate commercial development on the property and
provide additional services to the existing businesses and industries in the area. The subject property is
located at the northwest corner of SE Inner Loop and Snead Dr. It currently consists of a 22,000-square
foot office/flex building. The subject property is not heavily treed and has no significant outstanding
features impacting development. The property has been developed with a 22,000-square foot building
and associated parking, landscaping, and stormwater improvements. The subject property is not
heavily treed and has no significant outstanding features impacting development. The property has
been developed with a 22,000-square foot building and associated parking, landscaping, and
stormwater improvements. Portions of the subject property were incorporated into the city limits in
1986 (Ord 86-55) and 2008 (Ord 2008-82), both of which were completed as part of a large area
annexation initiative. The portion that was annexed in 1986 was rezoned to its current Industrial (IN)
zoning district in 1989 (Ord 890091) as part of a larger rezoning initiative that included all property
generally located between Madison Oaks and SE Inner Loop, and Austin Ave and the city limits. The
portion that was annexed in 2008 was designated with its current Agriculture (AG) district at time of
annexation, which is the default initial zoning district upon annexation.
The applicant Ken Horak addressed the Commission and offered to answer Commission questions.
