Paulette Taylor, 705 W. 8th Street, was concerned about the effect on the neighborhood of many
of the allowed uses. She says they just want to keep the residential character of their

on Booty’s Road.

trigger for the requirement of a study.

request as submitted. Approved 7‐0

adopt the draft Airport Master Plan – Nat Waggoner, AICP, Long Range Planning Manager

city has met all the legal required notifications. Ed Polasek, the Transportation Planning
Coordinator, explained the process that the city used for approval by TxDOT, and the FAA. He
explained that the city will follow the process for approval by the city, based on comments of

Q6 Is there anything else the City should consider when regulating food
trucks?
Answered: 11 Skipped: 6
#RESPONSES DATE
1 The Health Department, if the City approve the food truck, needs to make sure that temperatures
of the food are correct, as well as, the transportation of the food to the trucks
4/5/2018 8:54 AM
2 they should have the same requirements as buildings as far as water, restroom and hand washing
and parking access. It is very unfair for food trucks to operate with fewer requirements and then
utilize the mandated requirements at traditional locations...parking, bathrooms, health code etc.
4/4/2018 12:58 PM
3 Parking. Effects on nearby businesses. Transients that tend to hang out in the seating areas.
Pollution and trash that get blown about. Cheap signage.
4/4/2018 10:00 AM
4 What taxes and business and community obligations will be required of the food trucks? What are
the restroom facility requirements of an area with several food trucks? How far away from resident
tax paying food establishments will food trucks be required to park? For instance, parking taken
away from brick and mortar establishments.
4/3/2018 8:48 PM
5 The food trucks should not be in the downtown vicinity, unless it's for a festival or market days.4/3/2018 8:11 PM
6 The restrauntures in the Downtown Historic Square are held at a higher and stricter standard, and
invest, as well as produce the highest revenue for restaurants. I don’t believe it is fare to the
established restaurants to take a cut in their daily sales after investing an immense amount of
monies compared to “Food Trailers”
4/3/2018 7:10 PM
7 I think permanently established food trucks should be handled like a restaurant, though they may
not provide all the amenities, they do provide food ongoing. I think the public would like to know
where the trucks will be located and are very interested in them not detracting from what makes
Georgetown a great - our square. I think the trucks business would regulate the length of time it is
in Georgetown. If it isn't making business it would likely leave. The city needs to regulate the area,
the appeal, the cleanliness of the trucks, not necessarily how long it stays.
3/28/2018 2:29 PM
8 They are severing the same people as local restaurants and should be held to the same standards
as permanent establishments. Cleanliness, food safety etc...
3/28/2018 8:43 AM
9 When you mention food truck, most have the mindset that your business is making money hand
over fist. It couldn't be further from the truth. Any regulations/fees that are being discussed need to
keep that key element in mind.
3/27/2018 9:13 PM
10 I think food trucks are great, however it's important for the downtown businesses that we are not
overrun with too many food trucks that take away from our historic designation. Perhaps there is a
better location they can operate? Property owners on the square have invested a lot of money
updating historic buildings. I would like to see continued investment in historic buildings, and I
would expect the City to protect that investment by limiting the amount of food trucks downtown.
Thank you.
3/27/2018 4:00 PM
11 The key word is "truck" which makes it mobile. I believe they should never be allowed to stay at a
location permanently. Unless it is a food truck park where they may all gather.

Site Information
Location:
The subject property is located on the north side of SH-29/University Avenue, just west of Wilbarger
Point and NE Inner Loop.
Physical Characteristics:
The subject property is situated behind another property that is currently developed with a
residential single-family structure and a commercial towing services facility. There is an
office/warehouse located in the rear of the developed property. There are few trees on the property.
Surrounding Properties:
The subject property is surrounded by large tracts of undeveloped land, as well as single-family,
multi-family and civic uses, such as churches. A fuel service facility is located at the intersection of
NE Inner Loop and SH-29/University Avenue. In addition, the proposed Georgetown 120 Planned
Unit Development (PUD) is to the northeast of the subject property. Georgetown 120 PUD is a
mixed-use development consisting of multi-family, single-family and non-residential uses proposed
closer to the intersection of NE Inner Loop and SH-29/University Avenue. Southwestern University
property is located to the northwest of the subject property; however, this is currently undeveloped.
The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties are

2030 Comprehensive Plan Guidance
Future Land Use:
The 2030 Comprehensive Plan designates land use categories on this property is Mixed Use
Community and Regional Commercial.
The Mixed Use Community category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as intended for
large tracts of undeveloped land, which are appropriate for larger scale, creatively planned
communities, where a mix of residential types and densities are complemented by supporting retail,
small to medium-scale office development, and integrated open spaces, where appropriate.
The Regional Commercial category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as areas of large
concentrations of commercial uses that serve or draw a regional market, such as major shopping
centers, stand-alone big-box retail, tourist attractions and supporting accommodations, and
automobile-oriented commercial uses that rely on convenient access from major transportation
routes and highway interchanges.

Growth Tier
The subject property is located within Growth Tier 1A. Tier 1A is that portion of the city where
infrastructure systems are in place, or can be economically provided and where the bulk of the city’s
growth should be guided over the near term. Within Tier 1A, the city is called on to conduct
assessments of public facility conditions and capacities and to prioritize short and long term capital
investments so as to ensure that infrastructure capacity is sufficient to serve development intensities
as indicated on the Future Land Use Map and in the zoning districts.
Transportation
Primary access to the subject property is from E University Avenue, which is identified in the Overall
Transportation Plan as a Major Arterial. In addition, the subject property is located approximately
600 feet from the intersection of SH-29/University Avenue and Inner Loop. NE Inner Loop is
classified as a Major Arterial and SE Inner Loop as a Minor Arterial in the City’s Overall
Transportation Plan.
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.
Minor Arterials connect lower functional classifications and major arterials and tend to be shorter in
distance. Major Arterials connect major traffic generators and land use concentrations and serve
much larger traffic volumes over greater distances.
Based on the existing driveway curb-cuts in the vicinity, the property may be permitted at least one
non-emergency public access driveway.
Utilities
The property has existing utilities with the City of Georgetown serving as the electric, wastewater
and water service provider. It is anticipated there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property.
Proposed Zoning District
The applicant is proposing to rezone the property to Public Facility (PF). The PF district is intended
to provide a location for government and other public or quasi-public facility operations. These may
include schools, public parks, hospitals, airports, government offices, churches and other related
uses, but would not include industrial facilities or storage yards. Some uses allowed in this district
might generate heavy traffic volumes and high-intensity operations. The PF district shall contain
uses that are allowed in both residential and non-residential districts and is subject to non-residential
design and landscaping standards for compatibility with nearby or adjacent residential uses.
Permitted uses in this district include, but are not limited to, emergency services station,
government/post office, library, hospital, and utilities. Other uses such as schools, community
centers, churches, restaurants, and event facilities are permitted subject to specific design limitations
to ensure compatibility with the surrounding properties. Certain land uses including group homes
with more than 16 residents, orphanage, psychiatric hospital, and major event entertainment, may
Page 47 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
ANX-2018-008 Page 5 of 7
Fire Station #7 Zoning to PF
be permitted subject to approval of a Special Use Permit (SUP). Attachment 4 contains a
comprehensive list of PF district permitted uses and development standards.
Inter Departmental, Governmental and Agency Comments
The proposed zoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the
appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued
regarding the zoning request.
Staff Analysis
Staff has reviewed the rezoning request and determined that the proposed rezoning meets the
criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below:
Approval Criteria Findings Staff Comments
1. The application is complete
and the information
contained within the
application is sufficient and
correct enough to allow
adequate review and final
action.
Complies An application must provide the necessary
information to review and make a
knowledgeable decision in order for staff to
schedule an application for consideration by
P&Z and City Council. Staff reviewed the
application and deemed it complete.
2. The zoning change is
consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
Complies The proposed zoning district is consistent
with the Future Land Use element of the
2030 Comprehensive Plan. The Future Land
Use map designates the property with both
Mixed Use Community and the Regional
Commercial categories. These future land
use categories promote residential and
commercial activities that will require the
provision of public services. The proposed
zoning district is consistent with the goals of
the Comprehensive Plan that call for the
provision of public services that support
residential and commercial growth.
3. The zoning change promotes
the health, safety or general
welfare of the City and the
safe orderly, and healthful
development of the City.
Complies The proposed zoning district promotes the
health, safety, and general welfare of the
City by allowing important government and
community facilities, including emergency
services stations, libraries, and social service
facilities, to be located along the strategically
important SH-29/University Avenue and
Inner Loop, as well as within adequate
distance from residential neighborhoods and
Page 48 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
ANX-2018-008 Page 6 of 7
Fire Station #7 Zoning to PF
Approval Criteria Findings Staff Comments
commercial uses. This location promotes the
orderly and healthful development of the
City by allowing these important civic
services to be easily accessed by the public,
as well as where services may be easily
provided to the public.
4. The zoning change is
compatible with the present
zoning and conforming uses
of nearby property and with
the character of the
neighborhood.
Complies The proposed zoning district is compatible
with the immediate surrounding uses. The
majority of land immediately adjacent to the
subject property is undeveloped at this time.
However, it is owned by Southwestern
University and may be developed with
educational or civic uses in the future as the
university continues to expand.
Additionally, there are residential
neighborhoods located both northeast and
south of the property as well religious
assembly facilities and places of worship
across the highway.
5. The property to be rezoned is
suitable for uses permitted by
the District that would be
applied by the proposed
amendment.
Complies The subject property is located mid-block
between Smith Branch Road and the
commercial intersection of SH-29/University
Avenue and Inner Loop. The mid-block
location is suitable for the public uses
permitted by right under the proposed
zoning district because it does not interfere
with the clustering of commercial and retail
land uses at the intersection of SH-
29/University Avenue and Inner Loop or the
nearby residential areas. Rather, it is located
along the perimeter of these land uses. This
location and the subject property are suitable
for these public uses because it allows for
convenient access by the public from SH-
29/University Avenue.
Based on these findings, staff finds that the proposed request meets the criteria outlined in UDC
Section 3.06.030 for a zoning map amendment. The proposed PF will allowing important
government and community facilities, including emergency services stations, libraries, and social
service facilities, to be located near a major intersection facilitating easy access to nearby residential
neighborhoods and commercial uses.

Overview of Applicant’s Request
The applicant is requesting to rezone the subject property from Residential Single Family (RS) to Office
(OF) zoning designation. According to the applicant, it is their intent to convert the existing residential
structure into an office for the owner’s business, Fineline Electric. See attached Letter of Intent.
Site Information
Location:
The subject property is located at 1625 Williams Drive on the north side of Williams Drive, between
Rivery Boulevard and River Bend Drive. The subject property has approximately 230 feet of street
frontage along Williams Drive.
Physical and Natural Features:
The subject site consists of an existing home and a few heritage trees. Utility lines run along the rear of
the property.
Future Land Use and Zoning Designations:
The subject property has a Mixed-Use Neighborhood Center Future Land Use designation and is
currently zoned Residential Single Family (RS).
Surrounding Properties:
Williams Drive to the east and west of the subject property has redeveloped with small office and
personal services uses in former residential homes. Particularly between Shannon Lane and Power
Road, surrounding properties along the corridor developed as single-family residential that were later
converted or redeveloped with civic, office and other related uses, bounded by established residential
neighborhoods to the north and south. The increase of commercial development along Williams Drive
transitioned this corridor into one of the City’s major commercial corridors, while still maintaining a
single-family residential appearance.
The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the
north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below:

Property History:
The subject property was annexed into the city in 1964 as part of a large area annexation request. At
time of annexation, the subject property was designated for residential. In 1986, a special zoning district
was imposed on all properties fronting Williams Drive, between Power Lane and Shannon Road, to
allow the gradual transition of primarily residential areas to mixed-use, and low intensity office uses
while maintaining a predominantely residential property appearance and building case (Special Area
Plan Overlay District). In 2014, the City Council voted to remove this overlay district so that this portion
of Williams Drive, including the subject property, may be developed consistent with the Williams
Drive’s character of a major commercial and transportaiton corridor.
In July 2017, the subject property was included in the Williams Drive Study, specifically within the
Centers Area boundary. The purpose of this Study was to develop a plan of action that incorporates
safety, efficient transportation operations, safe accommodations of all modes, and integration of smart
transportation and land use, community needs and the future economic growth of Williams Dr. The
focus of the Centers Area included developing a plan for a vibrant mixed-use center and gateway along
Williams Drive.

customer base. The Mixed Use Neighborhood Center applies to smaller areas of mixed commercial use
within existing and new neighborhoods. These areas are primarily proposed adjacent to, or as part of,
larger residential neighborhoods. Neighborhood-serving mixed-use areas abut roadway corridors or
are located at key intersections.
In addition, this designation may accommodate (but does not require) mixed-use buildings with
neighborhood-serving retail, service, and other uses on the ground floor, and offices or residential units
above. Uses in these areas might include a corner store, small grocery, coffee shops, hair salons, dry
cleaners and other personal services, as well as small professional offices and upper story apartments.
They may also include noncommercial uses such as churches, schools, or small parks. In new
neighborhoods, in particular, the exact size, location, and design of these areas should be subject to a
more specific approval process, to ensure an appropriate fit with the surrounding residential pattern .
Growth Tier:
The subject property is located within Growth Tier 1A. Tier 1A is that portion of the city where
infrastructure systems are in place, or can be economically provided, and where the bulk of the city’s
growth should be guided over the near term. Within Tier 1A, the city is called on to conduct
assessments of public facility conditions and capacities, and to prioritize short and long term capital
investments so as to ensure that infrastructure capacity is sufficient to serve development intensities
as indicated on the Future Land Use Map and in the zoning districts.
Other Master Plans: Williams Drive Study
The Williams Drive Study recommends a mix of uses within the Centers Area ranging between Urban
Mixed Use, to Highway Commercial, to low to high density residential.
Page 59 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
REZ-2018-017
1625 Williams Drive Page 5 of 8
Specifically for the subject property, the Study recommends Small Office/Medium Density Housing
(Townhouse, multiplex, office, medical office) for this property and area.
In addition, it is located within the Golden Oaks Dr to Rivery Blvd character area, where the
preservation of the scenic corridor and tree canopy be preserved, with wide sidelwalks and small scale
structures.
Page 60 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
REZ-2018-017
1625 Williams Drive Page 6 of 8
Utilities
The subject property is located within the City’s service area for electric, water and wastewater. It is
anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation
may be required at time of Site Development Plan to determine capacity and any necessary utility
improvements.
Transportation
The subject property has public road frontage along Williams Drive. Williams Drive is identified as an
existing Major Arterial in the Overall Throughfare Plan. Major arterials connect major traffic generators
and land use concentrations, and serve much larger traffic volumes over greater distances.
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 muc h larger traffic
volumes over greater distances.
In addition, the Williams Drive Study recommends new street connections in this general area to
improve the street network and provide alternative routes to address traffic congestion within this
portion of Williams Drive. New street connections may include the provision of new drives and cross-
access to adjacent properties, or a new public road where appropriate. At the time the property
redevelops, cross-access will be required to be provided to adjacent commercial properties.
Proposed Zoning district
The Office (OF) district is intended to provide a location for offices and related uses. The uses allowed
have relatively low traffic generation. Small areas of the Office (OF) district may be appropriate adjacent
to most residential uses and as a transition between residential areas and commercial areas.
Uses permitted in this zoning district include medical, dental, professional and general office, personal
services, dry cleaning service, social service facility and other similar uses. Restaurant, data center,
business/trade school, and day care uses may be permitted subject to additional design and site
requirements. Other uses such as a hotel or medical complex may be permitted subject to approval of
a Special Use Permit (SUP) by the City Council.
Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review
The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Dep/artments to determine the
appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding
the zoning request.
Approval Criteria
Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with the criteria
established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below:
Page 61 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
REZ-2018-017
1625 Williams Drive Page 7 of 8
APPROVAL CRITERIA FINDINGS STAFF COMMENTS
1. The application is complete
and the information contained
within the application is
sufficient and correct enough
to allow adequate review and
final action.
Complies An application must provide the necessary
information to review and make a
knowledgeable decision in order for staff to
schedule an application for consideration by
the Planning and Zoning Commission and
City Council. This application was reviewed
by staff and deemed to be complete on
7/19/2018.
2. The zoning change is
consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
Complies The City’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan
encourages the development of a mix of
complimentary uses, including limited retail,
personal service, office, civic, and single- to
multi-family residential uses. The requested
zoning is consistent with this Plan as the
proposed zoning district allows office,
personal services and other low intense
commercial uses, as well as residential when
included in the same building of a non-
residential use. Because of this, the Office
(OF) zoning district is considered to be
compatible with the Mixed Use
Neighborhood Center Future Land Use
designation.
3. The zoning change promotes
the health, safety or general
welfare of the City and the
safe orderly, and healthful
development of the City.
Complies The applicable development standards of this
zoning district promote the general welfare of
the City by applying site design standards
that protect the adjacent properties such as a
medium level bufferyard with a 15-foot wide
planting area and additional 15 foot side
setbacks and 25-foot rear setback to
residential zoning districts. In addition, the
requested zoning creates a transition between
the high traffic on Williams Drive and the
established single family neighborhood.
4. The zoning change is
compatible with the present
zoning and conforming uses of
nearby property and with the
character of the neighborhood.
Complies The requested zoning and potential use of
professional office are compatible with the
surrounding uses and character of the area.
The applicant intends to renovate the existing
residential structure and keep the residential
feel of the site consistent with the former
development standards that were imposed on
this portion of the roadway and allowed
today. This portion of Williams Drive has
seen multiple residential structures converted

APPROVAL CRITERIA FINDINGS STAFF COMMENTS
into office space as a result of the former
zoning district that allowed office uses
provided the residential look and feel was
maintained.
5. The property to be rezoned is
suitable for uses permitted by
the District that would be
applied by the proposed
amendment.
Complies The subject property and existing residential
structure are suitable for an office interior
finish out. When changing the use, the
applicant will submit a minor site
development plan to bring the site up to
Office standards, including parking.

RE: Keister Properties
Rezone – Letter of Intent
This Letter of Intent and application information are prepared by JAB Engineering, LLC. (the “applicant”) under the
authorization of Keister Properties, LLC (the “owner”). The following detailed information is provided accordingly:
· The existing zoning is RS – Residential Single-Family and the proposed zoning is OF – Office.
· The Future Land Use Plan designates the subject property and surrounding corridor along Williams Drive
as Mixed Use Neighborhood Center. The subject property is designated as Tier 1A (Developed /
Redeveloping) in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan.
· The subject property contains an existing residential structure that is proposed to be remodeled for office
use. The reintroduction of neighborhood businesses and services into older neighborhoods is consistent
with Goal 2 of the Land Use Elements in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The remodel of the existing
structure is also consistent with the adjoining properties along Williams Drive, which have all been
rezoned to OF.
· The property will continue to be served by the existing driveway on Williams Drive. Utilities (water, sewer,
and electric) are already provided to the existing structure on the subject property.
· The existing structure on the subject property was constructed prior to March 11, 2003 and the lots were
under the same ownership. The lots shall be treated as a single lot, with the shared lot line not considered
for measurement of all dimensional standards (UDC Chapter 7.02.030.C.5. No encroachments will exist
around the outside boundary for the proposed zoning.
· A survey of the existing site with overlay of the proposed zoning setbacks is included with this submittal
for reference.
· A letter of intent from the owner is also included for reference.
Please accept this letter of intent and accompanying documents for the Rezone.
Sincerely,
Joshua A. Baran, P.E.

Re: Letter of Intent for Rezoning for 1625 Williams Dr property
1. Existing zoning is residential and future city shows office per 2030 plan. Our plan is to
convert the existing house on property to office use. All other house to either side of the
property are already zoned commercial/office.
2. Proposed zoning will be office use
3. Utilities are existing and will not change to property
4. Please use survey of property as plan since the structure is existing and will be reused.
5. Current property does not fall in historical perimeters. But the existing structural will be
cleaned up to blend in with adjacent properties on Williams Dr.
6. Landscaping will be cleaned up and brought up to match adjacent properties.
Thank you,
Dave Keister

Overview of Applicant’s Request
The applicant is proposing to develop approximately 18.331 acres of recently annexed land as a single-
family subdivision.
Site Information
Location:
The subject site is generally situated south of the city’s urban core. It is located between South Austin
Avenue, FM 1460, and Southeast Inner Loop, at the terminus of Mourning Dove Lane and Thunder
Valley Trail.
Physical and Natural Features:
The subject site is currently undeveloped and had previous been used as a homestead and small farm.
Future Land Use and Zoning Designations:
The subject property has Employment Center (EC) and Moderate Density Residential (MDR) Future Land
Use designations and is currently zoned AG.
Surrounding Properties:
The subject site is surrounded on two sides by other residential neighborhoods. The neighborhood
immediately to the south of the site is outside the city limits and is characterized by large lots that are
not served by city utilities. The properties to the north of the site are non-residential in use. There is a
primary school located on the property immediately to the north of the subject site. The property west
of the subject site is an industrial park with an Industrial (IN) zoning district.
The current zoning, Future Land Use designation, and existing uses of the adjacent properties to the
north, south, east and west are outlined in the table below:

Aerial Map
Property History:
The subject site was annexed into the city limits in August of 2018 (ORD 2018-43).
Comprehensive Plan Guidance
Future Land Use Map:
The Moderate Density Residential (MDR) category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as
comprising single family neighborhoods that can be accommodated at a density ranging between 3.1
and 6 dwelling units per gross acre, with housing types including small-lot detached and attached
single-family dwellings (such as townhomes). This category may also support complementary non-
residential uses along major roadways such as neighborhood-serving retail, office, institutional, and
civic uses, although such uses may not be depicted on the Future Land Use Map.
The Employment Center (EC) category is intended for tracts of undeveloped land located at strategic
locations, which are designated for well planned, larger scale employment and business activities, as
well as supporting uses such as retail, services, hotels, and high density residential development (stand-
alone or in mixed-use buildings) as a conditional use. These areas often act as a transition between more
intensely developed commercial uses and residential neighborhoods. Primar y uses include offices, flex
offices, and technology research and development, as well as environmentally friendly manufacturing.
Growth Tier:
Page 82 of 90
Planning Department Staff Report
REZ-2018-007
Mourning Dove Page 4 of 6
Tier 2 lies outside the city limits, but within the City’s Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ). Until
annexation occurs, land use and development controls are limited to subdivision review and signage,
and in some cases building permits where City utilities are connected to new construction. However,
the City may consider requests for annexation, extension of City services, and rezonings in this area.
Utilities
The subject property is located within the City’s service area for water, wastewater, and electric. It is
anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve the subject property at this time. A Utility Evaluation
may be required at time of Subdivision Plat to determine capacity and any necessary utility
improvements.
Transportation
The subject site is located within established residential neighborhoods. It is primarily accessed from
FM 1460 by Mourning Dove Lane or Thunder Valley Trail.
Proposed Zoning district
The Residential Single-Family (RS) zoning district allows for medium density and its minimum lot size
is 5,500 square feet. The RS district contains standards for development that maintain single-family
neighborhood characteristics. The RS district may be located within proximity of neighborhood -
friendly commercial and public services and protected from incompatible uses. All housing types in
the RS district shall use the lot, dimensional and design standards of the district.
Permitted land uses within the district include detached single-family homes and group homes with 6
or less residents. Attached single-family homes, churches, family home day care, and schools among
other uses are permitted subject to specific design limitations to ensure compatibility with the
surrounding properties. Other uses such as accessory dwelling units, bed and breakfast, group day
care, general office and other similar uses may be permitted subject to approval of a Special Use Permit
(SUP). Attachment 4 contains a comprehensive list of RS district permitted uses and development
standards.
Intergovernmental and Interdepartmental Review
The proposed rezoning request was reviewed by all applicable City Departments to determine the
appropriateness of the requested zoning on the subject property. No comments were issued regarding
the zoning request.
Approval Criteria
Staff has reviewed the proposed rezoning request and has found that it complies with the criteria
established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for a Zoning Map Amendment, as outlined below:
APPROVAL CRITERIA FINDINGS STAFF COMMENTS
1. The application is complete

application for consideration by the
Planning and Zoning Commission and
City Council.
2. The zoning change is
consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
Complies The subject site is located within a
transition area of Employment Center
(EC) and Moderate Density Residential
(MDR) Future Land Uses. The site
takes primary access from property
located within the Moderate Density
Residential (MDR) area, making the
Moderate Density Residential (MDR)
Future Land Use designation the
appropriate lens from which to review
the rezoning request. The Moderate
Density Residential (MDR) designation
supports the types of specific uses that
are allowed by the Residential Single-
Family (RS) zoning district.
3. The zoning change promotes
the health, safety or general
welfare of the City and the
safe orderly, and healthful
development of the City.
Complies The proposed zoning district fits into a
safe, orderly, and healthful
development of the city by proposing a
residential infill development for a site
surrounded by other residential
neighborhoods.
4. The zoning change is
compatible with the present
zoning and conforming uses of
nearby property and with the
character of the neighborhood.
Complies The Residential Single-Family (RS)
district is compatible with the adjacent
Residential Single-Family (RS) zoned
neighborhoods to the east.
The Residential Single-Family (RS)
district is not compatible with the
Industrial (IN) district located to the
west of the site. Only a portion of the
western property line is occupied with
existing industrial development. Any
redevelopment of the adjacent site
would require additional buffering and
screening to be required as a condition
of approval of any site development
permit.
