Plat Summary
Proposed Lots: Three (3) single-family lots
Proposed Streets: None
Heritage Trees: Two (2) are located on-site
Site Information
Location:
The property is located within Georgetown’s City limits at the northeast corner of Railroad
Avenue and West 19th Street.
Physical Characteristics:
The property is flat, primarily undeveloped with an existing single-family residence on the
Railroad Avenue side which will remain. The property has approximately 200 feet of street
frontage along West 19th Street and Railroad Avenue. There are two (2) heritage trees on-site
which will also remain.
Background
The subject property was annexed into the City in 1915. The development falls under the current
UDC regulations and the development standards for the RS District. The 2030 Comprehensive
Plan future land use category for the property is Moderate Density Residential. This project is
located within Growth Tier 1A. This plat would normally be reviewed administratively as a
minor plat. However, the applicant is required to provide right-of-way along both street
frontages and therefore requires P&Z approval. Thus, this application is presented to the P&Z for
approval.

Railroad Oaks Subdivision – Preliminary Final Plat Page 2 of 2
Utilities
Water, wastewater and electric utilities will be provided by the City of Georgetown. It is
anticipated that there is adequate water capacity at this time to serve this property either by
existing capacity or developer participation in upgrades to infrastructure.
Transportation
The site has public street access from both Railroad Avenue and W. 19th Street. Trip generation
will not be reviewed with the subdivision application since a three lot subdivision will not trigger
the need for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA).
Parkland Dedication
Parkland dedication requirements are being met by a fee in lieu
Staff Analysis
The proposed Preliminary Final Plat meets all of the requirements of the UDC and is presented
for approval.

Item Details
Project Name: Cole Estates
Project Address: Hwy 29 West
Total Acreage: 100.44 acres
Legal Description: 100.44 acres in the Donagan Survey
Applicant: John Teague, Halff Engineering
Property Owner(s): Glenna Mae Cole Estate
Contact: John Teague, PE
Plat Summary
The proposed project is primarily single-family lots within the ETJ, built to suburban standards and
served with City utilities.
Proposed Lots: 207 single-family lots; 11 acres open space, 6 acres parkland
Proposed Streets: Fifteen (15) new streets (14,635 feet of new street length)
Site Information
Location:
The property is located outside of the city limits west of town on Highway 29. Entrance is directly south
from the Chapparal Estates Subdivision.
Physical Characteristics:
The property is representative of the transition into Hill Country terrain, including heavy tree cover and
many Heritage Trees. The relatively skinny tract of land slopes down to the South San Gabriel river from
29 and includes floodplain along the southern boundary. Partially Recharge Zone and partially
Contributing Zone of the Edwards Aquifer.
History
The subject property has been in the City’s ETJ for many years. This is the first application filed with
the City of Georgetown for development purposes.
Utilities
Water and Wastewater services are provided by the City of Georgetown. Electric service is provided by
Pedernales (PEC). A wastewater agreement will be presented for approval to the City Council in the near
future that will provide for service to the project. With that agreement is included an annexation
provision that the property will be annexed at a later date when the city becomes contiguous.
Transportation
Access to the subdivision will be exclusively from Highway 29 as the development begins. A median-
divided boulevard will be constructed to meet the Fire Code provisions for two fire accessways. Future
street connections will be stubbed to the east and west and several locations, including planned
Page 19 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
Cole Estates, Preliminary Plat Page 2 of 2
connections to the Crescent Bluff MUD project to the east. A landmark roundabout is centrally located
and will disperse traffic in four directions.
Parkland Dedication
Public parkland was approved by the Parks Board in April for 6 acres along the river, in addition to
HOA-maintained open space. A future regional trail will be constructed in the city parkland tract by
others in the future.
Staff Analysis
The proposed Preliminary Plat meets the requirements of the UDC and is presented for approval.

Project Name: Stillwater
Project Address: NE Inner Loop
Location: Southwest corner of the
intersection of the
Georgetown Railroad and
NE Inner Loop
Legal Description: 73 acres in the John Berry and
Antonio Flores Surveys
Existing Use: Vacant/Undeveloped Land
Future Land Use: Moderate Density Residential
(High Density Residential is
proposed with CPA-2016-002
for the area proposed for High
Density Multifamily District)
Existing Zoning: Agriculture (AG)
Proposed Zoning: Residential Single Family District (RS) – 55.99 acres
Local Commercial District (C-1) – 3.65 acres
High Density Multifamily District (MF-2) – 11.65 acres
Overview of Applicant’s Request
The applicant has requested to rezone the site from the Agriculture (AG) District to three zoning
districts: approximately 56 acres of the Residential Single-Family (RS) District, 11 acres of the
High Density Multifamily (MF-2) District, and 3 acres of Local Commercial (C-1) District. The
applicant has stated the intention to develop a single-family neighborhood that is buffered, and
supported, by a multifamily complex and several acres of commercial/service/retail uses.
However, an application to change the future land use designation of 11.65 acres of the property
to High Density Residential is currently under consideration by City Council 1.
Site Information
Location:
The subject property is located on the west side of NE Inner Loop, just south of the Georgetown
Railroad Company railroad tracks. A Georgetown Independent School District (GISD) campus
of Cooper Elementary and Forbes Middle School and the Katy Crossing subdivision are just
1 Per the 2030 Plan, the future land use designation of the site is Moderate Density Residential.
Page 24 of 54

north of the site on the west side
of the Inner Loop roadway. The
site is comprised of six existing
properties totaling approximately
73 acres.
Physical Characteristics:
The property is generally flat and
undeveloped with few trees and
shrubs, devoid of any discernible
natural features. Access to the
property at this time is only by NE
Inner Loop.

Property History
The property was annexed into the City in 2006 (Ordinance 2006-121) as part of a larger
annexation which totaled approximately 209 acres of land in the area south of the railroad tracks
and west of Inner Loop. The subject site remains zoned Agriculture (AG) from the time of
annexation.
Transportation
The subject property’s access is via NE Inner Loop, which is designated a Major Arterial on the
City’s Transportation Plan. This roadway is currently built to only a two-lane design, but
ultimately would be four or more lanes, likely with a median division and designated turn-lanes.
There are no other planned (per the City’s Transportation Plan map) roadways otherwise
affecting this property.
As development occurs, driveways and public streets within the property will be determined
through the subdivision and/or site development plan review processes. A Traffic Impact
Analysis (TIA) may be required at a later date based on proposed uses and the daily trips
generated from them.
Page 25 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
Stillwater – Rezoning – AG to RS, C-1, MF-2 Page 3 of 7
Utilities
The property is in a triple-certified area for electric service between the City of Georgetown and
retail providers Oncor and Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC). Three of the properties
comprising the site (those closest to and fronting NE Inner Loop) are in the service area of the
Jonah Water Special Utility District (“Jonah”); the remainder of the site is served by the City
water utility. Wastewater services would be provided by the City of Georgetown. The State
Highway 130 corridor, between FM 971 and University Avenue (State Highway 29), has
wastewater service challenges due to limited regional infrastructure in this area.
The applicant has met with the Systems Engineering Department to discuss possible wastewater
service solutions for this particular site. A semi-permanent solution for wastewater service to
this site has been reached. The applicant is proposing to upsize a wastewater line to facilitate
extension of an area wastewater line to the master plan inceptor line at the San Gabriel River as a
means of providing wastewater service to the subject property.
2030 Comprehensive Plan
Future Land Use:
The 2030 Future Land Use category for this property is Moderate Density Residential. This land use
category principally comprises single family neighborhoods that can be accomodated at a density
ranging between 3.1 and 6 dwelling units per acre with housing types including small-lot
detached and attached single-family dwellings (such as townhomes). The category can also
support complementary non-residential uses along arterial roadways such as neighborhood-
serving retail, office, institutional, and civic uses.
A portion of the property, commensurate with the area proposed for the High Density
Multifamily (MF-2) District, is subject to a Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA-2016-002)
request, to establish the category of High Density Residential. As of the writing of this report, the
CPA has received a recommendation of approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission,
and is scheduled for an upcoming public hearing and First Reading of the Ordinance with City
Council on August 23, 2016. The High Density Residential category would support housing types
including duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, apartments, condominiums, life care, and other
multifamily forms of housing. Location for these types of land uses is ideal near major activity
and employment centers and areas suitable for future transit service.
Growth Tier:
The 2030 Plan Growth Tier Map designation is Tier 1B (Developing). Such designated areas
are presently within the City limits and are generally under-served by infrastructure, and are
where such services and facilities will likely be needed to meet the growth needs of the City
once Tier 1A approaches buildout. The 2030 Plan advises the City to provide a full array of
services and facilities with adequate capacities in Tier 1A, prior to initiating additional major
investments in Tier 1B.
Page 26 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
Stillwater – Rezoning – AG to RS, C-1, MF-2 Page 4 of 7
Due to the utility challenges that may exist in parts of the Tier 1B areas, the 2030 Plan calls for
requests for rezonings, additional infrastructure extensions, and development approvals to be
accompanied by comprehensive assessments of impacts to include both capital and operating
costs associated with water, wastewater, road capacity, police, fire, EMS, and schools. The City
does not currently have a financial model that analyzes the cost to serve a particular project. In
lieu of not using a financial model, careful consideration should be paid to the impact of growth
within the Tier 1B areas.
Proposed Zoning Districts
The applicant has requested the following zoning districts; see Attachment 4 for a graphical
depiction.
Residential Single-Family (RS) – 55.99 acres.
The RS District is intended for areas of medium density with a minimum lot size of 5,500 square
feet. The RS District contains standards for development that maintain single-family
neighborhood characteristics. Attachment 5 contains a list of allowable uses and development
standards.
Local Commercial (C-1) – 3.65 acres.
The C-1 District is intended to provide areas for commercial and retail activities that primarily
serve residential areas. Uses should have pedestrian access to adjacent and nearby residential
areas, but are not appropriate along residential streets or residential Collector roadways. The
District is more appropriate along major and minor thoroughfares and corridors. Typical uses
permitted within this District are general retail, restaurants (including drive-through), hotels,
general and medical or dental offices, etc. Attachment 6 contains a comprehensive list of the
allowable uses and development standards.
High Density Multifamily (MF-2) – 11.65 acres.
The MF-2 District is intended for attached multifamily residential development, such as
apartments and condominiums, at a density not to exceed 24 dwelling units per acre. The District
is appropriate in areas planned as High Density Residential or one of the Mixed Use categories.
Access to major thoroughfares and arterial roads should be provided, with traffic not being
directed through lower density residential areas. The District is appropriate adjacent both
Residential and Non-Residential Districts and may serve as a transition between single-family
districts and more intense commercial districts. Attachment 7 contains a comprehensive list of
the allowable uses and development standards.
Staff Analysis
The Northeast Inner loop corridor, in this vicinity, is a largely undeveloped portion of the city.
The 2030 Future Land Use plan identifies this area to be mostly Moderate Density Residential, but
there are specific areas identified for Institutional uses, High Density Residential, Commercial nodes
Page 27 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
Stillwater – Rezoning – AG to RS, C-1, MF-2 Page 5 of 7
at major intersections, and Open Space along the San Gabriel River. Historically, this area has
experienced, and continues to experience, wastewater service challenges due to the lack of
infrastructure needed to support development of any kind in this corridor. Given conditions of
limited road access, nearby floodplain, and utility proximity and suppliers, staff believes this is
an area that should be examined closely to ensure the timing of envisioned land uses, enabled by
the requested zoning districts, are implementable.
The property, and those immediately surrounding it, are all zoned Agriculture District,
established with annexation into the City. The general lack of development in this area has
resulted in the initial zoning designation remaining, despite its conflict with the Future Lane use
map designation of Moderate Density Residential.
For this particular property, Staff finds that the proposed RS District is consistent with the
Moderate Density Residential future land use category specifically. Similarly, in the proposed
location, staff finds that the C-1 District is consistent with the Moderate Density Residential,
fulfilling the inclusion of complementary non-residential uses when located along Arterial
roadways. Should the Future Land Use map be successfully amended by the applicant’s request
for the High Density Residential category where the MF-2 District is proposed, that district would
be consistent with that category. Overall, the primary permitted uses and forms of development
achievable under the UDC standards for the three proposed Districts will fulfill the overall
intents of the two Future Land Use categories covering this property.
Below is an analysis of the proposal against several specific goal statements from the 2030 Plan.
• Promote sound, sustainable, and compact development patterns with balanced land uses, a variety
of housing choices, and well integrated transportation, public facilities, and open space amenities.
• Staff Analysis: This property lends itself to be developed with primarily single-family
dwellings, with complementary land uses that will buffer it from a Major Arterial
roadway, all of which can be accomplished by the three Districts as proposed. A
variety of land uses and housing choices would be created, while the property is
inherently lacking in connectivity options, and thus integration of infrastructure may
not result.
• Attract desired forms of balanced development, creating quality urban, suburban, and rural places
that offer a choice of setting and lifestyle.
• Staff Analysis: The property, being inside the Inner Loop, is prime for suburban scale
residential development, with a portion of multifamily, in keeping with the Moderate
Density Residential and High Density Residential land use categories. The
development standards of the Unified Development Code for the requested Districts
result in distinctly suburban style development.
Page 28 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
Stillwater – Rezoning – AG to RS, C-1, MF-2 Page 6 of 7
• Encourage residential developments that are well-connected to the larger community, planned and
designed to complement the heritage and natural character of the City, and offer a variety of
housing types and price ranges.
• Staff Analysis: The property suffers from an inherent lack of connectivity to other
properties, and so would be limited in this regard no matter the future development.
Unto itself, the proposed mix of zoning districts can offer housing options, while City
character can be complemented by the adopted standards of the UDC.
• Encourage the staged, orderly expansion of contiguous development to coincide with the expansion
of roads and infrastructure.
• Staff Analysis: Development of this property can be looked at as an in-fill
development, through the lens that it is ‘inside’ the Inner Loop roadway that
circumnavigates most of the City. The “island” nature, bounded by the San Gabriel
River, railroad tracks, and the Inner Loop are largely the reasons why the property is
currently underserved by utilities. This proposal neither supports, nor harms, this
goal, and is simply an intrinsic aspect of this property.
Below are the approval criteria for a rezoning request, with specific staff analysis.
UDC Section 3.06.030 establishes the following criteria for zoning changes:
The application is complete and the
information contained within the
application is sufficient and correct
enough to allow adequate review and
final action
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. This application
was reviewed by staff and deemed to be complete.
The zoning change is consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan
The RS and C-1 Districts are consistent with the Moderate Density
Residential category, enabling the request to proceed for review and
consideration. The MF-2 District request was not consistent with the
Moderate Density Residential category, and consideration of that
District required the companion Comprehensive Plan Amendment
application which is in process.
The zoning change promotes the
health, safety or general welfare of the
City and the safe orderly, and healthful
development of the City
The zoning change request would generally neither harm, nor bolster, the
health, safety and general welfare of the City.
The zoning change is compatible with
the present zoning and conforming
uses of nearby property and with the
character of the neighborhood
The proposed rezoning is compatible with the surrounding properties
that have rezoned in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan.
Immediately adjacent properties are zoned Agriculture District from the
point of annexation, and are anticipated to rezone in the future to
facilitate higher levels of development.
The property to be rezoned is suitable
for uses permitted by the District that
would be applied by the proposed
amendment.
The proposed districts place land uses in complimentary and appropriate
locations given the landmarks that surround the property, including the
Inner Loop, the railroad tracks, and the San Gabriel River, as well as a
neighboring subdivision (Katy Crossing) and a public school campus.

Stillwater – Rezoning – AG to RS, C-1, MF-2 Page 7 of 7
Findings
Based on all the information presented, staff has made the following findings:
1. The Future Land Use category of Moderate Density Residential supports the RS and C-1
Districts at this location, as this category is intended for large tracts of undeveloped open
land where residential uses will complement the future non-residential development
anticipated to front NE Inner Loop, a major Arterial roadway.
2. Should the Future Land Use plan be amended to the High Density Multifamily for the area
proposed for the MF-2 District, then that District would be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
3. Development of the RS District would be buffered from the Northeast Inner Loop by tracts
of multifamily and commercial, which is in general a logical progression of land uses for a
property adjacent a major Arterial.
4. Transportation impacts born by the proposed zoning changes to the property will be
addressed through the Traffic Impact Analysis process at the time of actual development.
5. Aspects of several Comprehensive Plan goals, specifically regarding varieties of residential
options and commercial uses nearby and serving to residential areas, could be fulfilled by
the proposed rezoning.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the applicant’s request based on the above-mentioned findings.
Public Comments
As required by the UDC, all property owners within a 200 foot radius of the subject property that
are located within City limits were notified of the rezoning application (28 notices mailed), a legal
notice advertising the public hearing was placed in the Sun Newspaper (July 31, 2016) and signs
were posted on-site. To date, staff has received five (5) public comments, three in favor, and two
in opposition, citing concerns regarding access to adjacent properties and loss of green spaces.

Item Details
Project Name: C&T Partnership Rezoning
Project Address: 1070 Westinghouse Road
Total Acreage: 11.5029 acres
Legal Description: 11.5029 acres of the Barney Low Survey
Applicant: Gerry H. Tucker, C&T Partnership
Property Owner(s): C&T Partnership
Overview of Applicant’s Request
The applicant has requested to rezone the undeveloped 11.5029 acre tract from the
Agriculture (AG) District, assigned upon annexation in 2011, to the Local Commercial (C-1)
District and allow for future commercial development of the property.
Site Information
Location:
The subject site is located south of Westinghouse Road, between Park Central Boulevard and
Teravista Crossing in the southeastern portion of the City.
Physical Characteristics:
The property is 11.5029 acres in size, undeveloped and is generally rectangular. The property is
sited at a higher elevation along Westinghouse Road and slopes downward south towards the
Teravista Subdivision. A tree survey has not been submitted at this stage of the process and
therefore the presence of protected or heritage trees is unknown. The property has public street
access on Westinghouse Road.

Property History
The 11.5029 acre property was annexed into the City on December 13, 2011 by Ordinance No.
2011-55. At the time of annexation into the City, the default AG District was assigned. The
property is currently vacant and undeveloped.
2030 Comprehensive Plan
Future Land Use:
The 2030 Future Land Use category for this subject site is Mixed Use Community. The Mixed Use
Community category is described in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as appropriate for larger scale,
creatively planned communities, where a mix of residential types and densities are
complemented by supporting retail and small to medium scale office development. This category
also encourages more compact, sustainable development patterns that reduce auto trips, increase
connectivity and encourage walking and use of transit.
Growth Tier:
The 2030 Plan Growth Tier Map designation is Tier 2, which is typically in the City’s ETJ areas
that will likely be needed to serve the City’s growth needs over the next 10-20 years. However,
the City may consider requests for annexation, extension of city services, and rezonings in these
areas.
Transportation
The property has approximately 400 feet of street frontage on along Westinghouse Road, a major
arterial. The property’s primary inbound and outbound access is through Westinghouse Road.
Trip generation will be reviewed with the Site Development Review application, possibly
triggering the need for a TIA at that time.
Utilities
Water/wastewater is served by the City of Georgetown. Electric service is dually-certified by the
City of Georgetown and ONCOR. In June 2014, City Council approved the creation of a Tax
Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) for an area along Westinghouse Road that includes this
property. The TIRZ is intended to facilitate infrastructure improvements to this area.
Page 46 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
C&T Partnership Rezoning Page 3 of 6
Proposed Zoning District
The C-1 District is intended to provide areas for commercial and retail activities that primarily
serve residential areas. Uses should have pedestrian access to adjacent and nearby residential
areas, but are not appropriate along residential streets or residential collectors. The District is
more appropriate along major and minor thoroughfares and corridors. Typical uses within this
district are general retail, restaurants (including drive-through), gas stations, medical or dental
offices, etc. Attachment 4 contains a comprehensive list of C-1 District allowable uses and
development standards. In the C-1 District, the floor to area ratio of a building cannot exceed 0.5
for certain land uses. Certain land uses have specific design limitations to ensure compatibility
with the surrounding properties.
Staff Analysis
Westinghouse Road is the southern most major arterial in the southeastern portion of the City.
There is a mixture of commercially and residentially zoned property and large agriculturally
zoned properties along this corridor. The agriculturally zoned properties are predominantly an
interim zoning until they are rezoned. In this case, staff determined that the requested zoning of
C-1 meets the intent of the Future Land Use category of the property (Mixed Use Community) and
therefore a Comprehensive Plan Amendment was not required.
As part of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, the Land Use Element identified a number of land use
goals, policies and actions. The following goals and action statements are the most relevant to
this request:
• The subject property is located within the Future Land Use category of Mixed Use
Community that encourages a mixture of residential and commercial uses within close
proximity to each other. The first land use goal of the 2030 Plan encourages a balanced
mix of residential, commercial, and employment uses to reflect a gradual transition of
development throughout the City. Although mixed use can be integrated vertically, it can
also be accomplished horizontally with adjacent mixes of uses that complement one
another. Commercial development in the mixed use category should complement a mix
of residential types by providing supporting retail and small to medium scale office
development.
Goal 1, Policies and Action 1.A2 states that the City should “reserve and rezone land ideally
suited for long term commercial and employment uses and prevent its use for residential
subdivisions.” The rezoning of this property to the C-1 District for the future commercial
development would support this goal. There is undeveloped low density multifamily
residential land (Vista Pointe Subdivision) to the west and residential single family zoned
property to the south (Teravista Subdivision). C-1 zoning at this location will reserve
land suitable for commercial development along a major arterial.
Page 47 of 54
Planning Department Staff Report
C&T Partnership Rezoning Page 4 of 6
• The land uses permitted in the C-1 District along with the district development standards
directly help to implement the 2030 Plan’s goals of a balance of land uses as well as
ensuring transitions and buffers between residential and commercial uses. As
development continues to extend to the southeast portion of the City, the need for goods
and services closer to residents (both current and future) is necessary in order to achieve
a balanced community as well as incrementally address traffic related concerns.
The proposed rezoning request meets all of the criteria established in UDC Section 3.06.030 for
zoning changes:
Approval Criteria for Rezoning
The application is complete and the information
contained within the application is sufficient and
correct enough to allow adequate review and final
action
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. This
application was reviewed by staff and deemed to be
complete.
The zoning change is consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan
The proposed zoning change is consistent with the
Future Land Use of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan. The
request is consistent with the goal to direct commercial
development primarily to “nodes” or “corridors”
where the pattern is established or appropriate. The
Mixed Use Community category supports the C-1
District at this location since the district’s allowed uses
include neighborhood serving businesses that would
accommodate the existing and future residential
neighborhoods.
The zoning change promotes the health, safety or
general welfare of the City and the safe orderly,
and healthful development of the City
The zoning change request promotes the health, safety
and general welfare of the City. The location of
commercial development along corridors such as
Westinghouse Road helps satisfy market needs of auto
oriented uses along the frontage of the corridor. The
C-1 District will help facilitate orderly commercial
development along a major arterial roadway.
The zoning change is compatible with the present
zoning and conforming uses of nearby property
and with the character of the neighborhood
The proposed rezoning is compatible with the
surrounding zoning districts and uses. Landscape
buffers will be required, per the UDC, where the
property abuts residential zoning. Additionally, the
property to the west and north are also zoned C-1.
The property to be rezoned is suitable for uses
permitted by the District that would be applied by
the proposed amendment.
The uses allowed in the C-1 District are suitable along
major arterials (Westinghouse Road) and within the
areas of the Future Land Use designated as Mixed Use
Community.

C&T Partnership Rezoning Page 5 of 6
General Findings
Based on all the information presented, staff has made the following findings:
1. Westinghouse Road is an arterial roadway and major east-west corridor. Corridors are
most successful and supported by the Comprehensive Plan when commercial development
is coupled with higher density development and when siting and landscape standards are
in place. This corridor is bound by more intense commercial along I-35 to the west of the
property and existing and future high density residential and low density residential
development east of the property.
2. The Future Land Use category of Mixed Use Community supports the C-1 District at this
location since this category is intended for a mixture of land uses where commercial uses
will complement existing and future residential development anticipated in the
surrounding area.
3. Goal 1, Policies and Action 1.A2 states that the City should “reserve and rezone land ideally
suited for long term commercial and employment uses and prevent its use for residential
subdivisions.” The rezoning of this property to the C-1 District for the future commercial
development would support this goal. C-1 zoning at this location will reserve land suitable
for commercial development along a major arterial.
4. The property is located along Westinghouse Road, a major arterial road, and the
transportation network at this location can support the traffic that may be generated by the
uses anticipated in the C-1 District.
5. There are active construction projects that will ensure sufficient capacity within the City
Utility Systems to accommodate the potential commercial development resulting from the
proposed rezoning from the AG to C-1 District at this location.
6. The south Georgetown TIRZ was established for primary non-residential development,
which is supported by the establishment of the C-1 District on this property.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the applicant’s zoning request based on the above-mentioned
findings.
Public Comments
As required by the Unified Development Code, all property owners within a 200 foot radius of
the subject property that are located within City limits were notified of the rezoning application
(3 notices mailed), a legal notice advertising the public hearing was placed in the Sun Newspaper
(July 31, 2016) and a sign was posted on-site. To date, staff has not received any written or verbal
comments in support or against the zoning request.
