Mr. Fowler stated that a significant amount of community responses opposing the project had been received, many immediately prior to the meeting. As such the written opposition received most likely met the 30% protest threshold found in the City's Code of Ordinances. The Commission can include this as a factor in making their decision.

Hold a PUBLIC HEARING and consider a request by Craig Harris for a Zoning Change from RMD Residential Medium Density District to CHB Commercial Heavy Business District on 0.248 acres in the Byrd Lockhart Survey, Abstract No. 17, located at 729 South Colorado Street. Mr. Fowler identified the subject property as being located in a transitional area of the city where commercial development along South Colorado Street gives way to residential areas to the west. The portion of the property fronting South Colorado Street is zoned CHB and is currently being used by a commercial business. The rear portion of the parcel along South Commerce Street is zoned RMD and cannot be utilized for commercial purposes. The zoning line splits the building, which could make renovations or additions tot the building difficult in the area with RMD zoning. Applicant Craig Harris, 11600 Old Lockhart Rd. Creedmoor, TX, stated his intent for rezoning is for consistency throughout the property. The Caldwell County Appraisal District has had the entire property zoned commercial since 2009. Commissioner Lingvai moved to approve ZC-25-02. Commissioner Arnic seconded, and the motion passed with a vote of7-0. 7.

The purpose of the zoning change is to allow development of the small lot to the west of the Mario's Tacos restaurant on Pancho Street. The proposed rezoninghas been submitted because the applicant wishes to develop the property with a grocery/convenience store that could possibly be built as an addition to the existing building. David Samuelson, 1270 Bugtussle Ln. Luling, TX, spoke about the zoning change on behalf of the Applicant. Stating the intent to build a store as an addition. Mario Gutierrez, 273 Old Luling Rd. Lockhart, TX, came to the podium. He spoke about the need for a zoning change and the business plans he will be able to implement because of that change. Commissioner Oliva moved to approve ZC-25-02.

The proposed bar will have a gross floor area of approximately 4,800 square feet. On September 14, 2016, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a Specific Use Permit to allow a mixed-use building and special events center with the following division by floor: 1st Floor: Restaurant/Dining 2nd Floor: Special Events/Banquets 3rd Floor: Residentia/Apartment Rooftop: Dining/Special Events Beer Garden The applicant proposes to continue the previous uses of the 2nd floor (offices), 3rd floor (special events), and rooftop (special events) as previously approved by the Commission; establishing the 1st floor as a bar with preparation and sale of food. The intended use will require approval of a Specific Use Permit in the CCB district. The applicant has no current plans for the basement. NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY: The surrounding zoning classificationsare CCB to the north, east, south and southwest, with Commercial Medium Business District (CMB) across North Church Street. Nearby land uses are commerciai, including retail sales to the north, professional offices and retail stores to the east, a financial institution to the south, a church to the southwest and a parking lot and motor bank to the west. The Future Land Use Map recommendation indicates Mixed Use Local uses and matches the CCB designation and anticipates the expansion of the CCB district in the future. Negative impacts on surrounding properties are unlikely with the proposed hours of operation and surrounding uses, but the dwelling unit upstairs above the bar space may be impacted by sound from the establishment. COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS: The subject site has no designated off-street parking, but does provide on-street parking within the abutting rights-of-way. Off-street parking is not required in the CCB district for buildings with 3 or fewer stories. The property complies with all setback requirements: The 10-foot rear setback required in the CCB district does not apply as the structure will not be "remodeled, enlarged, or structurally altered in any manner which increases its existing extent of nonconformity" (Sec. 64-62(a) Nonconforming buildings). ADEQUACY OF INFRASTRUCTURE: Existing utilities are adequate fort the proposed use. RESPONSE TO NOTIFICATION: Staff has not received letters in support of or in opposition to the proposed use at the time of writing the staff report. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

BACKGROUND DATA APPLICANT/S): Crystal Nuding (Texas Soil Sisters) OWNER(S): Kristin Marie Glomb SITE LOCATION: 629 South Main Street LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Hudson's Addition, Block 1, Part of Lot 3 SIZE OF PROPERTY: 0.23 acres EXISTING USE OF PROPERTY: Vacant Subdivided Land ZONING CLASSIFICATION: RMD Residential Medium Density ANALYSIS OF ISSUES CHARACTERISTICS OF PROPOSED USE: The applicant requests a Specific Use Permit for a community meeting and/or recreation facility to utilize the property as a community: garden. The proposed use would incorporate structures and some vegetation currently present on the site, i.e. the shed structure and fence at the northwest corner, the concrete pad at the southwest corner, the concrete approach at the southeast corner, and the trees along the east property line. Additional proposed structures would include work tables, raised beds and compost and bioreactor bins. The garden will be organic in nature, employing features such as hugelkultur, berms, swales, rain gardens and French drains. The intent for the garden is to provide learning tools for the community, promoting permaculture and vermiculture techniques. The applicant proposes to use the largely vacant property as a community garden, to be maintained the by Texas Soil Sisters on a year-round basis. Staff interprets the proposed community garden use as a community meeting and/or recreation facility use as is allowed by-right within the Public and Institutional District (PI). Under Section 64-196(e)(4)d, this use is subject to review and approval by the Commission as a specific use and is defined in Section 64-2, Definitions, of the zoning ordinance as follows: Community meeting and/or recreation facilities: Facilities provided by the municipality or by another group or organization without profit or gain for such special purposes as a scout house, community meeting rooms, a community center, a drop-in center, an archaeological or fine arts museum, a public library etc. but does not include school facilities, public or private parks, playgrounds, arenas, stadiums, hippodromes, swimming pools, skating rinks, commercial- recreational establishments or any class of group home. NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY: The subject property is zoned RMD and is surrounded by other properties zoned RMD. The surrounding properties are occupied with single-family dwellings. The size of the subject property is comparable to surrounding lots, measuring approximately 125 ft in depth with approximately 80 ft of frontage along South Main Street. In respect to compatibility with neighboring residential properties, common concerns for community gardens include continued maintenance, water usage, possible noise and odor levels, and hours of operation. Because the property is not within a commercial district, the commercial zoning noise standards established in the Lockhart Code of Ordinances Section 64-198(c)(3) do not apply. However, should the Commission choose, adherence to the noise standards in Section 64-198 could be adopted as a condition to the approval of the Specific Use Permit. COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS: Being a relatively new use to the municipality, the proposed use may not align with existing zoning district standards and practices. The property is screened from the surrounding residential uses by vegetation and a fence. ADEQUACY OF INFRASTRUCTURE: Adequate water and wastewater. are available from South Main Street. RESPONSE TO NOTIFICATION: Staff has not received letters in support of or in opposition to the proposed use at the time of writing the staff report. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval with conditions.
