ITEM SUMMARY: FINANCIAL IMPACT: NA SUBMITTED BY: Page 3 of 93 City of Georgetown, Texas Planning and Zoning September 15, 2015 SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action on a Preliminary Plat Amendment to alter the phasing schedule for the Madison at Georgetown Section 1. (PP-2015-001) Jordan Maddox, AICP, Principal Planner ITEM SUMMARY: Background: The applicant has requested a Preliminary Plat amendment to adjust the phasing order of the project, shifting Phase II towards the front of the project to a single lot at SH 195 and the proposed Vaquero Pass intersection. Phase II, as now proposed, would be for a 15.96-acre tract of land (Lot 1, Block A on the preliminary plat) that is zoned Multi-Family, High Density (MF-2). The phasing amendment would move up the planned Phase IV to Phase II and push back the previously approved phases II and III. Recommended Motion: Approval of the Preliminary Plat Amendment to adjust the phasing schedule FINANCIAL IMPACT: None at this time. The applicant has paid the required fees.

Maddox, AICP, Principal Planner Item Details Project Name: Madison at Georgetown, Section 1 Project Address: 4565 SH 195 Location: SH 195 near Oak Branch Dr Total Acreage: 234.7 acres Legal Description: 234.7 acres in the LS Walters Survey Applicant: Paul Linehan, Land Strategies Property Owner: Madison Georgetown Cotenancy Contact: Paul Linehan Applicant’s Request The applicant has requested a Preliminary Plat amendment to adjust the phasing order of the project, shifting Phase II towards the front of the project to a single lot at the intersection of SH 195 and the proposed Vaquero Pass. Phase II, as now presented, would be shifted to a 15.96-acre tract of land (Lot 1, Block A on the preliminary plat) that is zoned Multi-Family, High Density (MF-2). The phasing amendment would delay the previously-approved phases II and III. History The Madison Section 1 Preliminary Plat was approved on November 9, 2010. It was granted a 12-month extension on November 9, 2012 and then extended again on July 26, 2013 to November 9, 2014. A Final Plat for Phase 1 was approved for filing by the Planning Director on November 7, 2014 and recorded at the County shortly thereafter. Utilities Utilities will be provided by: City of Georgetown water (Western District), City of Georgetown wastewater, and Pedernales Electric Co-op. A subdivision construction agreement and performance bond were approved by the City with the final plat for Phase I in November 2014 and account for the required public improvements for that phase. These improvements included a substantial wastewater line, water line extension and a piece of the Vaquero Pass roadway. There are no new public improvements proposed with the proposed Phase II. Transportation A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was submitted with Section 1 in 2010. The plat amendment Page 5 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Madison at Georgetown, Section 1 Preliminary Plat Amendment Page 2 of 2 will not create a change to planned improvements and pro-rata contributions from the developer; however, when the site is developed as multi-family at some point in the future, the TIA will be studied and/or amended to determine the timing of such obligations. Access will be taken from both Vaquero Pass and SH 195 for the eventual development on the lot. There are no other public streets to be dedicated with Phase II. Future Application(s) In order to proceed with development on this site, it will be necessary to obtain approval of final plats, which are administratively approved applications. Staff Analysis Staff Recommendation and Basis: Staff supports the Preliminary Plat Amendment as it meets all of the requirements of the City’s Unified Development Code. Interdepartmental, Governmental and Agency Comments None Public Comments Public notice is not required for a preliminary plat amendment application. There have been no public comments received at the time of this report.

(REZ-2014-022) Jordan J. Maddox, AICP, Principal Planner ITEM SUMMARY: Background: The applicant has requested to create a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Zoning District for the Saddlecreek development project, formerly known as Woodhull Ranch. In September 2014 the City Council approved most of the 353-acre property to become a Municipal Utility District (MUD) inside the city limits, through a Consent Agreement that approved the land use plan and other terms of the development. The PUD zoning is the second step of the entitlement process and becomes the governing document that provides details such as the look and feel of the development project. Included in the PUD are lot and product design standards, signage, parkland amenities, and street design. Variations to the standards of the Unified Development Code (UDC) are specified in the development plan. For further details regarding the project proposal, the staff report and attached Development Plan contain specifics on land use and development standards. Public Comment: As of the date of this report, no written public comments have been received. Recommended Motion: Recommend to the City Council Approval of the PUD zoning request. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None at this time. The applicant has paid the required fees.

Maddox, AICP, Principal Planner Item Details Project Name: Saddlecreek (fka Woodhull Ranch) Location: Rockride Lane and Sam Houston Avenue Total Acreage: 353.084 acres Legal Description: 353 acres in the Addison and Stubblefield Surveys Applicant: Sentinel Land Company, LLC Property Owner: Sentinel Land Company, Woodhull Family Partners Contact: Mark Baker, SEC Planning Existing Use: Agricultural/vacant use Zoning: Agriculture (AG) Future Land Use: Employment Center, Mixed-Use Community Growth Tier: Tier 1B Overview of Applicant’s Request The applicant has requested to create a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Zoning District for the Saddlecreek development project, formerly known as Woodhull Ranch. In September 2014 the City Council approved most of the 353-acre property to become a Municipal Utility District (MUD) inside the city limits, through a Consent Agreement that approved the land use plan and other terms of the development. The PUD zoning is the second step of the entitlement process and becomes the governing document that provides details such as the look and feel of the development project. Included in the PUD are lot and product design standards, signage, parkland amenities, and street design. Variations to the standards of the Unified Development Code (UDC) are specified in the development plan. Site Information Location: Rockride Lane will be the primary entrance, located on the western edge of property. The majority of the street frontage exists along Sam Houston Avenue to the south with a connection to SH 130 at Lawhon Lane to the east. Page 44 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Saddlecreek PUD Page 2 of 5 Physical Characteristics: The Site is primarily flat pasture land, with few trees and a natural drainageway in the center. Surrounding Properties: The surrounding properties are all zoned Agriculture (AG), and are primarily used for that purpose. There are a few residential homes west of the land on Rockride Lane and to the north, all of which are in the city limits. Mitchell Elementary is located on the western edge of the land and there are plans for a junior high school on the same site. Property History The property was annexed in 2006 and given the default zoning district of Agriculture (AG). In 2014, the City Council approved the Consent Agreement for the MUD. A Preliminary Plat for the entire 353 acres has been submitted to the City and will be reviewed in the context of the Planned Unit Development, if approved. 2030 Plan Conformance The property is classified as Employment Center and Mixed-Use Community. The Employment Center is planned primarily for employment-generating commercial and office uses, with supporting high-density residential and retail. The Mixed-Use Community anticipates well-planned, cohesive residential with mutliple housing types and walkable personal services. As part of the MUD negotiation, the City Council approved a determination by the Planning Director that the land plan’s mix of Business Park, retail and multi-family served the goals of the 2030 Plan and Employment Center Page 45 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Saddlecreek PUD Page 3 of 5 designation and did not require a land use plan amendment. Most of this project would be classified as a Mixed-Use Community, due to its various density and product types. Business commercial uses are planned along 130, taking advantage of the regional traffic, access and visibility. Retail will be located near the main entrance of the project, along Rockride and Sam Houston. Multi-family phases are in strategic locations along the larger roadways but will remain integrated into the neighborhood. The property is currently classified as Growth Tier 2 on the City’s Growth Tier Plan, meaning that utilities and infrastructure are planned for this area between 10-20 years, although provisions in several agreements approved by Council in 2014 make provisions for the appropriate infrastructure for the project. Proposed PUD The PUD document consists of a "development plan" that describes and summarizes the attributes of the PUD and the corresponding exhibits that comprise most of the zoning document. These exhibits were developed for the most part during the negotiation of the MUD agreement and are included here with minor modifications. Exhibit A is the Development Plan itself. Exhibit B is the property field notes, Exhibit C is the land use plan, Exhibit D depicts parks and open space, Exhibit E details locations for subdivision signage, and Exhibit F depicts signage design. Development Plan highlights: This project will contain a mix of base zoning districts and uses, including townhomes, single-family residential, office and retail, and apartments. Within these uses are a variety of housing types and price levels, catering to different housing market needs. Some products will be alley loaded, with reduced lot widths, some will be zero-lot line, some will be clustered together on a single lot with condominium ownership. The PUD contains differing masonry requirements, dependent on the lot size, all of which exceed the UDC requirements. The PUD is designed around a central park corridor, including an amenity center, playgrounds, trails, and open recreation fields. The park will be owned by the City of Georgetown and connect back into the neighborhoods through local streets and connected trail and sidewalk systems. The proposed park for Saddlecreek has been approved by the Parks Board. The developer has proposed a cohesive signage package that exceeds the UDC in both size and amount of signage for this type of development. The PUD details the proposal, which includes taller monument signs (up to 20’) that are set back from the roadways and heavily landscaped. The additional height is requested for a stone column, not the primary lettering of the sign, which is situated at 7-8’ in height. Exhibit F depicts the size, coloring and materials of the proposed signage. Page 46 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Saddlecreek PUD Page 4 of 5 Utilities Wastewater will be provided by Georgetown Utility Systems (GUS). Electric service is Oncor. Water is provided by Jonah Special Utility District. Wastewater improvements are detailed in the Consent Agreement for the MUD. The developer's responsibilities include a significant portion of a gravity sewer line, a portion of the lift station and wet well near the Dove Springs Plant, and a force main from the lift station. Transportation The project is served by several major roadways, including Sam Houston Avenue and SH 130. The initial entry to the project is Rockride Lane, which needs improvements to serve a development such as this. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) has been submitted and approved by the City of Georgetown, with specific improvements and financial contributions identified. In addition to the existing thoroughfares adjacent to the property, the Saddlecreek development contains two proposed major collector roadways that are identified on the City's thoroughfare plan with the objective of connecting Sam Houston, Inner Loop and SH 130 for regional traffic movement. These two collectors are located almost exclusively within the boundaries of the land and the developer feels he needs only a portion of these roadways, but not the ultimate section. Since the roadway capacity will be needed long-term for the City but not for many years, staff and the developer have agreed to divert funding beyond the requirements from their Traffic Impact Analysis to facilitate the construction improvements around Mitchell Elementary and the intersection of Inner Loop/Rockride Lane, which will have a greater impact in the short-term. The PUD details the cross-sections of those roadways and related elements of design. Future Application(s) Preliminary and Final Plats will be necessary for each phase of development, per UDC regulations. Site Plans would be required for non-residential development. Building permits will be required for all building construction. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the PUD zoning because of consistency with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and the approved MUD Consent Agreement for the property.

Parmer Lane Building A, Suite 220 Austin, Tx 78727 Page 52 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 2 of 24 Exhibit A Saddlecreek Planned Unit Development A. Purpose and Intent The Saddlecreek PUD is composed of 353.084 acres, as described in Exhibit B (Field Notes). The development of this property is planned as a high quality, mixed use community with a blend of retail, office, business park and multiple residential opportunities in a variety of lot sizes and configurations. The contents of this PUD further explain and illustrate the overall appearance and function desired for this community. The variety of product types and community design vision differ in some ways from conventional suburban development. Due to the variations in design, several modifications to the Georgetown Unified Development Code will be necessary to implement the vision for the community. A Concept Plan has been attached to this PUD, Exhibit C, to illustrate the design intent for the property. The Concept Plan is intended to serve as a guide to illustrate the general community vision and design concepts and is not intended to serve as a final document. The Concept Plan depicts a mix of residential products, open space areas and non-residential uses which are contemplated within the community. B. Applicability and Base Zoning All aspects regarding the development of this PUD shall comply with the version of the Georgetown Unified Development Code (UDC) in effect at the date of PUD approval, except as established in this PUD exhibit, titled Exhibit A. For the purpose of complying with the UDC requirement of selecting a base zoning district, the following base districts have been selected for the residential and non- residential areas: RS – Residential Single Family (for single family detached residential) TH - Townhouse MF-2 – Multi Family (for attached Multi Family) MF-1 – Multi Family C-1 – Local Commercial BP – Business Park (for SH 130 fronting lands) This PUD allows the definition of final lot boundaries during the platting process. Each plat or site plan submitted to the City will identify the use at the time of City Submittal. All neighborhoods within the PUD will comply with the modified development standards of this PUD. In the case that this PUD does not address a specific City requirement, the Georgetown Unified Development Code shall apply. In the event of a conflict between this PUD and the base zoning district, this PUD shall control. Page 53 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 3 of 24 C. Concept Plan Exhibit C attached is a conceptual development plan intended to visually convey the design intent for the Saddlecreek community. The design of the community is not final, and is subject to refinement during the platting and site planning stages. This PUD zoning document does not constitute plat or site plan approval of the attached plan. The residential component of the project is comprised of a mix of various single family detached products as well as townhomes, apartments and cluster single family condo regime. Additionally, Saddlecreek will include a cohesive network of open spaces, including parks, greenbelts, water quality areas, trails, and a resident’s amenity center. The non-residential areas of Saddlecreek will be a mix of retail and business park components oriented to SH 130 and Sam Houston Avenue. The design balances visibility and access from major roads for non-residential uses with a mixed residential community that is centered around the existing schools. D.

Page 57 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 7 of 24 G. Parkland/Trails/Open Space Open space within Saddlecreek will create a network of trails and parkland that creates distinct neighborhoods and provides pedestrian walkways throughout the community. Per UDC Section 13.05.010, B, Formula for Calculating Area of Parkland, the acreage contributed for parkland shall be pro-rated in an amount equal to one acre for each 50 new detached single family dwelling units. As illustrated on Exhibit D, Open Space Summary, the Saddlecreek PUD Concept Plan illustrates approximately 32 acres of parkland/open space; a mix of greenbelts, open space, trail corridors, parks and water quality amenity lakes. A combination of parkland and parkland improvement expenses shall be allowed as credit toward the parkland requirements for the detached single family housing in Saddlecreek. Park elements and associated improvement costs, shall be allowed as credit toward the parkland requirements. Elements that can be used as credit shall include but not be limited to:  Playgrounds  Parking lots to serve parkland  8’ Concrete hike and bike trails  Open recreation fields  Public picnic pavilions  Turf and irrigation associated with play fields  Amenity ponds and fountains  Public restroom facility The Townhouse, Cluster and Multi Family development parcels within Saddlecreek shall independently address parkland requirements or be allowed to pay a fee in lieu of parkland. Pedestrian trails and circulation are planned to be vital components of the Saddlecreek community. The following summary describes the location and approximate linear footage of trail proposed within Saddlecreek:  5,400 linear feet of 8’ wide, concrete trail will be incorporated into a centralized open space greenbelt and will connect parks, schools and neighborhoods.  1,800 linear feet of an expanded 8’ wide, concrete bike and walking trail will be located along the south and west side of Bell Gin Road which extends through the property in lieu of a typical sidewalk. The Bell Gin trail will connect the central greenbelt trail with the City regional trail, which connects at Mitchell Elementary School. No sidewalk will be required along the north and east side of Bell Gin Road. The City may choose to construct a sidewalk along the northern/eastern lanes of Bell Gin.  2,400 linear feet of 8’ wide, concrete bike and walking trail will be located on the south side of the primary community entry road that connects to Rockride Page 58 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 8 of 24 Lane (Street “B”). No sidewalk will be required along the north side of Street B. Water quality ponds may be located along the central greenbelt of Saddlecreek and will be designed as an amenity feature that enhances the adjoining residential neighborhoods. The primary central park shall be built in the first phase and shall be credited toward the community parkland requirement. The first phase of the parkland is defined on Exhibit D. All facilities utilized as credit toward parkland requirements shall be open to the public and privately maintained by the Saddlecreek MUD and/or homeowner’s association. H. Roadway Design The Saddlecreek vehicular circulation pattern provides access to all parts of the project from Rockride Lane, Bell Gin Road and SH 130. See Exhibit C for roadway circulation and right of way classification. The primary community entry will be from Rockride Lane on the western boundary of Saddlecreek (Street “B” on Exhibit C). The primary roadway will serve as the entrance for the residential areas of the community. The roadway may be median divided for a segment of the entry experience adjacent to the retail center and transition to a 73’ residential collector right of way with 30’ of pavement. Where the roadway is median divided, a minium of 20’ of pavement will be maintained on the inbound and outbound portions of the roadway. Street “B” shall intersect an internal collector loop road that will be a 65’ Residential collector (Street “C”) to the north of the intersection and a 73’ collector roadway (Street “D”) to the south of the intersection, as labeled on Exhibit C. The pavement width for Streets “C” and “D” shall be 30 feet. Up to 10 residential lots shall be allowed to face onto Street “C” with a driveway spacing of 60 feet measured from the center of the driveway. Internal local streets within Saddlecreek shall utilize a 50’ right of way with 27’ of pavement measured from face of curb to face of curb. On street parking shall be restricted to one side of the street. A sign will be placed at entries into residential neighborhoods stating that parking is restricted to one (1) side of the street. Final sign language to be determined and agreed to by the City and Applicant prior to installation. Select neighborhoods within Saddlecreek may employ the use of rear loaded, alley homes. If so desired by the City, the alley streets will be created as privately owned and maintained access drives to the lots they serve. The alleys shall provide a right of way width of 20 feet and a pavement width that is a minimum of 14 feet. Alleys may be constructed of asphalt. Where alley loaded product is developed, the local streets may be developed as 50’ right of way with 27’ of pavement width measured face of curb to face of curb. On Page 59 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 9 of 24 street parking shall be restricted to one side of the street, unless the pavement width is increased in parking areas to accommodate parking on both sides of the street. A sign will be placed at entries into residential neighborhoods stating that parking is restricted to one (1) side of the street. Final sign language to be determined and agreed to by the City and Applicant prior to installation. Access from SH130 will be provided by a 73’ collector right of way that will ultimately link SH130 to Bell Gin Road (Street “A” on Exhibit C). Saddlecreek shall dedicate the full right of way width to the City and the development shall construct two lanes of the collector roadway (30 feet of pavement), concurrent to the development of the adjacent lands with either Residential or Employment Center uses. The additional 2 lanes will be constructed as required by the City coincident to the future development of the Employment Center uses adjacent thereto, if determined necessary. Bell Gin Road is designated on the City Transportation Plan as a 73’ major collector right of way that ultimately provides a connection between the SE Inner Loop and Sam Houston Avenue. The Saddlecreek property does not control the northern or southern connection points of the Bell Gin collector. As such, Saddlecreek will construct two lanes of the proposed collector within the boundary of Saddlecreek. Right of way for the ultimate development of the roadway will be dedicated to the City and reserved for future completion of the additional lanes. Mitchell Elementary School and a future Middle School are adjacent to the northwest corner of Saddlecreek. In order to provide safe access and a student drop off area, a pedestrian and vehicular access point will be provided along the Saddlecreek western boundary. The access point will not physically connect to the school property unless approved by the Georgetown Independent School District, but will provide safe access for Saddlecreek residents to drop off children for school. The ultimate location of the drop off area will be coordinated with the Georgetown ISD to ensure that the access point is located in a logical location that is compatible with the school district site design. Landscape Islands: The Saddlecreek PUD allows the planting of trees and vegetation in medians and public right-of-ways. The Developer or Homeowners Association is responsible for landscape maintenance and irrigation within landscape lots and right of way. Landscape within the right of way shall require a license agreement with the City. Page 60 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 10 of 24 Roadway design standards shall be governed by the Georgetown UDC, Section 12.03, Streets unless modified within this PUD. 73’ Collector Road (Bell Gin Road and Street “A”) Construction Detail Page 61 of 93 Saddlecreek - Planned Unit Development Page 11 of 24 I.

Wright Survey Applicant: Land Strategies, Inc. Property Owner: Offspring Capital Investment, LLC Contact: Erin Welch, Land Strategies, Inc. Existing Use: Undeveloped Existing Zoning: Agriculture (AG) Proposed Zoning: 5.92 acres of General Commercial (C-3) and 6.65 acres of Industrial (IN) Future Land Use: Employment Center, Community Commercial Growth Tier: Tier 1B Overview of Applicant’s Request The applicant has requested to rezone 12.56 acres of land from Agriculture District (AG) to General Commercial District (C-3) and Industrial District (IN) zoning for future development. The 5.92 acres of C-3 zoning will be along the IH-35 frontage road. The 6.65 acres of IN zoning will be to the rear of the property. Site Information Location: This property is located along the northbound frontage of IH 35, between Lakeway Drive and State Highway 130. Physical Characteristics: The property has an abandoned structure, but is otherwise undeveloped. There are no Heritage Trees on the property, and the area is relatively flat. Page 76 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report St. Croix, 2150 IH-35 - Rezoning Page 2 of 4 From AG to C-3 and IN Surrounding Properties: The surrounding properties include undeveloped tracts zoned Agriculture (AG), with the Industrial Park North subdivision to the south. Location Zoning Future Land Use Existing Use North Agriculture (AG) Employment Center Vacant South Industrial (IN) Employment Center, Community Commercial Industrial Park North subdivision East Agriculture (AG) Employment Center Vacant West Agriculture (AG), Interstate Highway 35 Employment Center, Community Commercial Interstate Highway 35 Property History In 2006, the City of Georgetown City Council adopted Ordinance 2006-120, annexing this property, along with the adjacent property to the east, into the City of Georgetown. Since annexation, the property has held Agriculture District (AG) zoning. 2030 Plan The City of Georgetown 2030 Plan designates a portion of this property as Community Commerical, and the majority of the property as Employment Center. The Community Commercial category applies to areas that accommodate retail, professional office, and service-oriented business activities. The Employment Center designation 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, and hotels. Industrial uses that already exist or are anticipated to continue for the foreseeable future are part of this designation. The 2030 Plan Growth Tier Map designation is Tier 1B, which is generally under-served by infrastructure and where such service and facilities will likely be needed to meet the growth needs of the city once Tier 1A approaches buildout over the next few years. Proposed Zoning District The applicant has requested General Commercial District (C-3) and Industrial District (IN) zoning on this property. The C-3 zoning is intended to provide areas for general commercial and retail activities that serve the entire community and its visitors. Uses may be large in scale and generate substantial traffic. Some of the allowed uses in this district include hotel, restaurant, medical complex, general office, general retail, and banking. The minimum size for a tract with General Commercial District (C-3) zoning is five acres. Page 77 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report St. Croix, 2150 IH-35 - Rezoning Page 3 of 4 From AG to C-3 and IN The IN zoning is intended to provide a location for manufacturing and industrial activities that may generate some nuisances. Traffic generation will likely include heavy vehicles, making access to an arterial or freeway necessary. Some of the allowed uses in this district include office/warehouse, general warehousing, processing, and assembly, recycling collection center, and truck terminal. Utilities Electric, water, and wastewater are served by Georgetown Utility Services. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve this property either by existing capacity or developer participation in upgrades to infrastructure. Transportation The access to this project is provided via IH-35 frontage road. Future Application(s) The following applications will be required to be submitted: • Preliminary Plat to be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission; • Final Plat is to be processed administratively; • Construction Plans will be processed administratively; • Site Plans for the commercial areas will be processed administratively; and • Building permits for construction. Staff Analysis Staff is supportive of the requested rezoning for the following reasons: 1. The Future Land Use designation of Community Commercial and Employment Center does support the commercial intensity of the C-3 district in this instance. The intensive General Commercial District (C-3) uses and development standards adjacent to Interstate Highway 35 provide a suitable transition to the proposed Industrial uses to the rear of the subject property. 2. The existing zoning situation of the surrounding area is primarily Agriculture (AG), with one developed subdivision of Industrial (IN) located adjacent to the southern boundary of the property. 3. The surrounding developed uses include industrial to the south. The remaining adjacent property is undeveloped. The intense commercial uses allowed in General Commercial District (C-3) are compatible with the existing Industrial uses, and are suitable adjacent to IH-35.

Inner Loop and F.M. 1460 from Agriculture (AG) to Local Commercial (C-1). (REZ-2015-003) Carolyn Horner, AICP, Planner ITEM SUMMARY: Background: The applicant has requested to rezone 5.085 acres from Agriculture (AG) to Local Commercial (C- 1) to develop the property with commercial uses. At its August 18, 2015 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to close the public hearing on the original request of General Commercial District (C-3). The Commission decided to postpone action to allow the applicant and staff to further discuss the appropriate zoning district and size of the rezoning request. Since the last P&Z meeting, the applicant has revised their application to request Local Commercial District (C-1) zoning. Staff and the applicant have discussed the concerns with the commercial zoning within the floodplain and water quality stream buffer until an official Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) has been approved by FEMA. The applicant has elected to proceed forward with the zoning request of 5.085 acres, more acreage than staff can recommend at this time. See attached staff report for additional information and analysis. Public Comment: As of the date of this report, no written public comments have been received. Recommended Motion: Recommend to the City Council denial of the request to rezone the entire 5.085 acre tract to the Local Commercial District (C-1). The reason for the denial recommendation is the commercial zoning within the restricted water quality buffer/floodplain area is inconsistent with the Future Land Use Plan and the City's recently-adopted adopted water quality regulations. Staff has expressed a willingness to reconsider the rezoning request once a Letter of Map Revision has been approved by FEMA and the new floodplain has been reduced as proposed. The applicant has been informed that staff will recommend approval for the C-1 District on the land outside of the 250- foot stream buffer. FINANCIAL IMPACT: None. The applicant has paid the required fees.

Dyches Survey, Abstract 180 Applicant: Timothy Moltz, P.E., Catalyst Engineering Group Property Owner: Kenneth Horak, Michael T. Novick, Inner Peace, LLC. Contact: Timothy Moltz, P.E. Existing Use: Undeveloped, floodplain Existing Zoning: Agriculture (AG) Proposed Zoning: Local Commercial (C-1) Future Land Use: Community Commercial, Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space Growth Tier: Tier 2 Overview of Applicant’s Request The applicant has requested to rezone 5.085 acres of land from Agriculture District (AG) to Local Commercial District (C-1) to develop the property with commercial uses. This development is on the northwest corner of S.E. Inner Loop and F.M. 1460. At its August 18, 2015 meeting, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to close the public hearing and postpone their decision on the original request of General Commercial District (C-3). The Commission decided to postpone action to allow the applicant and staff to further discuss the appropriate zoning district and size of the rezoning request. The applicant revised their application to request Local Commercial District (C-1) zoning and provided a new metes and bounds description. Site Information Location: This property is located at the northwest corner of S.E. Inner Loop and F.M. 1460. Page 86 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Inner Peace, Northwest corner of SE Inner Loop and FM 1460 - Rezoning Page 2 of 5 From AG to C-1 Physical Characteristics: The property is undeveloped, with a natural drainage feature of the Smith Branch creek running across a portion of the property from north to south, continuing under S.E. Inner Loop. The FEMA flood hazard map indicates two different flood zones in the floodplain area. There are no Heritage Trees on the property. Surrounding Properties: The surrounding properties include Agriculture (AG), Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and General Commercial (C-3). Location Zoning Future Land Use Existing Use North Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space, Moderate Density Residential Single family residential, vacant South Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) and General Commercial (C-3) Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space, Community Commercial Vacant East Agriculture (AG) Community Commercial Vacant West Agriculture (AG) Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space, Moderate Density Residential, Employment Center Vacant Property History In 2008, the City of Georgetown City Council adopted Ordinance 2008-82, annexing this property, along with the adjacent property to the west, into the City of Georgetown. Since annexation, the property has held Agriculture District (AG) zoning. In 2012, the City of Georgetown City Council approved a Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) to add a Community Commercial Node at the intersection of F.M. 1460 and S.E. Inner Loop. Prior to that action, the area was designated for only Moderate Density Residential uses and Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space. In March of 2015 the City of Georgetown City Council approved an update to the Overall Transportation Plan (OTP) for the city. As part of that approved OTP, both adjacent roadways to this site are to be expanded, and F.M. 1460’s alignment shifts east. The expansions mean increased right-of-way along both roadways. Per the approved plan for the S.E. Inner Loop Corridor, this entire site will be included and used as part of the right- Page 87 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Inner Peace, Northwest corner of SE Inner Loop and FM 1460 - Rezoning Page 3 of 5 From AG to C-1 of-way for the new S.E. Inner Loop. On August 11, 2015, Council approved a Resolution Declaring Public Convenience and Necessity (“PCN Resolution”) authorizing staff to acquire the property at the northwest corner of SE Inner Loop and FM 1460 (approximately 9.951 acres) by negotiation and/or condemnation, if necessary, for future right-of-way, water quality and detention purposes. At its July 10, 2015 meeting, the Georgetown Transportation Advisory Board (“GTAB”) recommended that staff proceed with acquisition. 2030 Plan The City of Georgetown 2030 Plan designates a portion of this property as Community Commercial (a node at the intersection of F.M. 1460 and S.E. Inner Loop), and the remaining portion as Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space. The Community Commercial category applies to areas that accommodate retail, professional office, and service-oriented business activities that serve more than one residential neighborhood. The Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space category applies to existing public parks, golf courses and protected open spaces of city-wide significance, which are expected to remain as open space in perpetuity. The 2030 Plan Growth Tier Map designation is Tier 2, that area which will be needed to serve the city’s growth needs over the next 10-20 years. Proposed Zoning District The applicant has requested Local Commercial District (C-1) zoning on this property. The C-1 zoning 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. The district is more appropriate along major and minor thoroughfares and corridors. Utilities Electric, water, and wastewater are served by Georgetown Utility Services. It is anticipated that there is adequate capacity to serve this property either by existing capacity or developer participation in upgrades to infrastructure. Transportation The access to this project is provided via S.E. Inner Loop. Future Application(s) The following applications will be required to be submitted: • Preliminary Plat to be considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission; • Final Plat is to be processed administratively; Page 88 of 93 Planning Department Staff Report Inner Peace, Northwest corner of SE Inner Loop and FM 1460 - Rezoning Page 4 of 5 From AG to C-1 • Construction Plans will be processed administratively; • Site Plans for the commercial areas will be processed administratively; and • Building permits for construction. Staff Analysis Staff is not supportive of the requested rezoning of the whole property for the following reasons: 1. The Future Land Use designation of Community Commercial and Open-Space does not support the amount of the C-1 district requested in this instance. The Local Commercial District (C-1) uses and development standards within the Parks, Recreation and Protected Open-Space area and within the required buffer area is not compatible with the Future Land Use Plan. Georgetown has recently adopted stringent water quality regulations that will require setbacks and buffers from springs and streams. The floodplain areas depicted on the Future Land Use Plan as protected open space promote the protection of the Community’s water quality and also flood prevention. These sensitive areas can not be developed and should not be zoned for commercial development. 2. The existing zoning situation of the surrounding area is primarily Agriculture (AG) and ETJ, with one parcel of undeveloped General Commercial (C-3) located to the south across S.E. Inner Loop. 3. The surrounding developed uses include residential to the north. The remaining adjacent property is undeveloped. The commercial uses allowed in Local Commercial District (C-1) are compatible with the developed residential uses. The limited frontage along S.E. Inner Loop, and the protected floodplain area on the western portion of the property, restricts access to the site. Staff is supportive of the proposed zoning only on the portion of the property that is not in the floodplain or is located outside of the 250-foot stream buffer area. The applicant does not have an approved Letter of Map Revision (LOMAR); however an application to revise the floodplain has been submitted to FEMA and the City Floodplain Administrator has received a copy of that application. Until a revision to the floodplain is authorized, the applicant must follow the stringent water quality regulations as adopted by the City. A buffer of 250-foot from the center line of the Smith Branch creek along the western portion of the subject property must be maintained. Staff does not support changing the zoning on the portion of the property within the 250-foot required buffer.
