The third floor will be used for special events as will the rooftop bar. The intended Bar/Tavern/Lounge use will require approval of a Special Use Pemit in the CCB district. Chair Ruiz asked for confirmation of the business' hours of operation. He noted all previously approved SUPs were issued with the condition that, after one year, the Commission would review any records or complaints issued during that time. Mr. Fowler clarified, the bar and special events space would close at 2:00 a.m. Charlie Tames, 119 W San Antonio St, reiterated the proposed uses for each floor. The SUP is intended for the entire building, specifically the bar and event spaces. He confirmed that the plan is to offer food at the bar in the future. For special events, food will be catered until a kitchen is built. - 1- Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting 05-28-2025 The Commission, Applicant and Staff discussed the notification of neighboring businesses and institutions. Tamara Carlisle, 831 W. San Antonio St. Lockhart, TX, introduced herself and spoke in support of the SUP. Lilly Cerna, 109 W. Walnut St. Lockhart, TX, came to the podium not to speak in support or opposition but to share her concern for parking availability downtown as additional businesses are added. Mr. Fowler reported that the CCB District does not have parking requirements in most cases. He has encouraged the Applicant to find additional parking and gain permission for its use during special events. It was confirmed that the Applicant has obtained such permission from a neighboring business. Melanie Renecker, 624 S. Main St. Lockhart, TX, shared her concern for oversaturation of like businesses, specifically bars, in and around the Square. She does not oppose or support the SUP, but is concerned for the viability of new and existing businesses. Mr. Fowler reported that Staff recommends Approval as all requirements have been met. Regarding parking, he noted that the Comprehensive Plan includes a parking study that will likely be done in the next 2-3 years and after the current downtown streetscape project has been completed. Commissioner Oliva made a motion to approve SUP-25-06 with no conditions. Commissioner Peterson seconded the motion. To be consistent with previous applications, Commissioner Arnic requested an addendum be added to the motion.

David Fowler presented a map, aerial and a site plan for the proposed project. 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 -2- Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting 05-28-2025 vegetation currently present on the site, i.e. the shed 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 worktables, raised beds, 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. Uses in Public and Institutional Zoning Districts do not have set parking requirements therefore no onsite parking is proposed. Also, no onsite restroom facilities will be offered. Crystal Nuding, 1314 Woodlawn St. Lockhart, TX, shared the purpose and mission of the community garden. She also provided some natural gardening techniques that will be used to deter pests and improve the soil. The Applicant has already reached out to a local business to partner on educating other members on food preparation techniques. Commissioner Arnic inquired about operational hours, supervision and security measures. Ms. Nuding reported hours will be sun rise to sun set though the garden can be entered at any time. Tools and trash will be brought in and taken out with members. Chair Ruiz asked if the community garden will be a non-profit or for-profit organization? Ms. Nuding clarified, we are doing this for the community, to teach people how to grow food and be healthy. This is not a commercial venture. Tamara Carlisle, 831 W. San Antonio St. Lockhart, TX, stepped up to the podium and spoke in favor of the SUP. Dionne Robertson, 1314 Woodlawn, St. Lockhart, TX, spoke in support oft the community garden. Joanna Nuding, 1173 Seawillow Rd. Lockhart, TX, spoke in support oft the project. She identified specific features of the community garden including worktables, composting stations, etc. Ms. Nuding pointed out that members will be donating much of the food produced at the garden. Melanie Renecker, 624 S. Main St. Lockhart, TX, shared her support of the community garden. Laura Adams, 639 S. Commerce St. Lockhart, TX, spoke in support of the community garden. Brandon Gray, 1002 W. Prairie Lea St. Lockhart, TX, spoke in support of the garden. He noted the positive impact that the garden has already had on the community. David Fowler returned to the podium and stated that recommended approval with seven (7) conditions as described in the Planning Department Report. The Commission, Applicant and Staff discussed the conditions specifically, liability insurance. Chair Ruiz expressed his concern for parking and unloading/loading of school children from/onto school buses for educational events. - 3- Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting 05-28-2025 commissioner Oliva moved to approve SUP-25-07 with the recommended Staff conditions.

BACKGROUND DATA APPLICANT: Charles Hickman, GBRA OWNER: Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority SITE LOCATION: 1251 Silent Valley Road LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Metes and bounds SIZE OF PROPERTY: 4.593 acres EXISTING USE OF PROPERTY: Vacant ZONING CLASSIFICATION: AO Agricultural-Open Space ANALYSIS OF ISSUES CHARATERISTICS OF PROPOSED USE: The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority proposes to build a Potable Water Booster Pump station at the subject location. This use requires a Specific Use Permit in the AO zoning district, as it is a use permitted in the PI Public and Institutional zoning district, all of which are listed as requiring SUPS in AO. The proposed improvements would include a booster pump station building, a chlorine facility, an above-ground storage tank, a retention pond, a backup generator, and other meters and pipes necessary for site operations. The site would be accessed by a driveway to be constructed to link the site to Silent Valley Road, roughly due north of the current terminus of Stueve Lane. The location and site plan of the proposed facility are shown in the attached documents. NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY: The proposed site would likely not be visible from Silent Valley Road as the site is approximately 1,500 feet north of the road. The neighboring properties are largely agricultural in nature, although there are two existing communication tower sites nearby, including one on an adjacent parcel. There are several houses located along Meadow Lane Drive, approximately 400 feet east of the proposed driveway. The area to the west of the property is zoned for medium and high- density residential use. The area to the north of the property has long been discussed as a possible site for mixed-use development due to its location near the intersection of SH 130 and US 183. COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS: The zoning ordinance does not provide an off-street parking formula for facilities in the PI district. The applicant has stated that there would not be marked parking spaces, but there will be an area for vehicles visiting the site to park. City staff is working with the applicant to ensure the site plan meets all City requirements, including those relating to fencing, landscaping, parking and driveways, and other relevant City codes. One manner in which City standards have been broken is that construction work has begun on the site despite the land use approval applied for with the Specific Use Permit application not yet being approved. In addition to an SUP, construction requires the issuance of a building permit and the review of the site's engineering plan. As of the time of this report, the building permit and engineering plan applications have been submitted but have not yet been approved. Additionally, the 4.593-acre site appears to have been divided by a deed without filing the required subdivision plat. This is noteworthy since the subject site does not have frontage on Silent Valley Road, making it a landlocked parcel. Staff is unaware of whether an easement has been created to provide access to the landlocked parcel. ADEQUACY OF INFRASTRUCTURE: The site is not served by water and wastewater service at this time. Roadway access via Silent Valley Road provides adequate access to the proposed driveway. RESPONSE TO NOTIFICATION: None. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
