Ethan Harwell, Applicant with Kimley-Horn, approached the podium to address the Commission and explained that the site already has 10 years of existing development, and the Westinghouse extension is converting a county road to a 6-lane major arterial road. Harwell spoke to the history of the school and its campus, as well as their goals for the expansion. The school is in a mixed -density residential area, so the intended use for this site complements the surroundings. Chair Perthuis opened and closed the public hearing with no speakers coming forth.

Cesar Acosta, Neighborhood & Housing Program Manager Sofia Nelson presented the staff report. Commissioner Haynie asked if using the townhouse zoning near the single family lots would be considered more compatible. Michael Ross and Norm Ashby, Applicant, approached the podium to address the Commission and explained that the townhouse zoning would not provide the buffer yards they desired. The site will not be built out as an apartment style complex, and the townhome zoning would be more noxious to neighbors. Chair Perthuis opened the public hearing. Carol Tharp, 340 Shell Spur, approached the podium to address the Commission. Brian Tharp, 340 Shell Spur, ceded his time to Carol. Tharp spoke to the congestion around Shell Road and Shell Spur, and established that she is opposed to apartments on this property. Tharp also commented that the proposed project would change the character of the neighborhood and property values, and noted that previous proposed projects on this property had been abandoned due to caves on the property that are still there. Chair Perthuis closed the public hearing. Commissioner Dickey suggested that the applicant work with City staff and the neighbors to develop a PUD and allow more of a transitional buffer area between the multi -family development and the existing single-family neighborhood. Chair Perthuis commented that the straight zoning doesn't seem to match what the developer is proposing to build and asked for staff direction on how to compromise on this issue. Nelson explained that the MF-1 zoning is very broad, and applicants often propose a PUD to better outline their plans for the site. In this case, the applicant is requesting a straight zoning, so staff is required to inform the Commission of the minimum and maximum restrictions for that zoning, as the applicant could potentially be allowed to build out that way. Norm Ashby approached the podium to address the Commission and explained that they 2.0 intend to build single story, cottage -style homes, and a PUD would only delay development on the site. Ashby emphasized that he is from Georgetown, has presented several projects to the Commission, and always built out how he proposed. Discussion on potential to develop a PUD.

Sofia Nelson presented the staff report. Chair Perthuis asked if the applicant will need to follow the typical permitting process to allow food trucks on the site. Nelson confirmed, yes. Kevin O'Neil, Applicant with Fidelis Industrial, approached the podium to address the Commission and spoke to the orientation of the proposed office spaces in relation to the adjacent highways, the building materials, and the landscaping of the property. O'Neil also established that the site will include multiple amenities such as a walking trail and food trucks with permanent seating around them. The site is only accessible from the frontage road. Chair Perthuis opened and closed the public hearing with no speakers coming forth. Commissioner Stanley asked if the buildings will be LEED certified. O'Neil explained that LEED certification for industrial buildings is tricky until you know the intended use and tenants.
