City of San Angelo Memo Meeting Date: July 16, 2013 To: City Council members From: Kevin Boyd, Planner Subject: Z13-20: David Jensen: a request for a zone change from Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse Residential (RS-3) to Single-family Residential (RS-1) to allow for single-family detached homes, on the following property: Location: 1650 Iowa Avenue, 1649 and 1650 Nebraska Avenue, located at the east corner lots at the intersections of Nevada Drive and Iowa Avenue and Nevada Drive and Nebraska Avenue, more specifically occupying the Capitol Heights Addition, Section 5, Block 6, Lot 42 and Block 11, Lot 1 and 26, in southwest San Angelo. Purpose: Approval or modification of this request would be forwarded to City Council for a final decision on the matter Contacts: David Jensen, Owner 325-234-8544 Kevin Boyd, Planner 325-657-4210 Caption: First Public Hearing and consideration of introduction of an Ordinance amending Chapter 12, Exhibit A (Zoning Ordinance) of the Code of Ordinances, City of San Angelo Z13-20: David Jenson AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 12, EXHIBIT A OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, CITY OF SAN ANGELO, TEXAS, WHICH SAID EXHIBIT A OF CHAPTER 12 ADOPTS ZONING REGULATIONS, USE DISTRICTS AND A ZONING MAP, IN ACCORDANCE WITH A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, BY CHANGING THE ZONING AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE FOLLOWING PROPERTY, TO WIT: 1650 Iowa Avenue, 1649 and 1650 Nebraska Avenue, located at the east corner lots at the intersections of Nevada Drive and Iowa Avenue and Nevada Drive and Nebraska Avenue. This property specifically occupies the Capitol Heights Addition, Section 5, Block 6, Lot 42 30. 2 and Block 11, Lot 1 and Lot 26, in southwest San Angelo, changing the zoning classification from Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse Residential (RS-3) to Single-Family Residential (RS-1) District; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND PROVIDING A PENALTY Summary: The City Council may: (1) Approve the proposed zone change as requested; or (2) Modify the application to some alternative zoning classification believed to be more appropriate; or (3) Deny the proposed zone change, altogether. Recommendation: Planning staff recommends approving the proposed zone change request from Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse Residential (RS-3) to Single-Family Residential (RS-1). On June 17, 2013, Planning Commission recommended approval of the requested zone change by a 6-0 vote. History and Background: The properties in question include Lots 1, 26 and 42 of the Capitol Heights Addition, Section Five. Back in November 2007, 39 of the 76 lots in the newly created subdivision were zoned from Single-Family Residential (RS-1) to Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse Residential (RS-3) to allow for the construction of townhomes. Over the past few years, development has only occurred along Iowa Avenue, the southernmost street in the subdivision the remainder of the area is undeveloped. General Information Existing Zoning: Zero Lot Line, Twinhome & Townhome (RS-3) Existing Land Use: Vacant, undeveloped tract Surrounding Zoning/Land Use: 31. 3 North: Zero Lot Line, Twinhome & Townhome (RS-3) Vacant residential lots West: Single-Family Residential (RS-1) Single-family detached homes and vacant residential lots South: Zero Lot Line, Twinhome & Townhome (RS-3) Single-family detached homes and vacant residential lots East: Zero Lot Line, Twinhome & Townhome (RS-3) Single-family detached homes and vacant residential lots Thoroughfares/Streets: Nevada Drive, Iowa Avenue, Florida Avenue and Nebraska Avenue are identified as a local streets, designed to carry light neighborhood traffic at low speeds. Zoning History: The property was annexed within the city-limits around 1975. Back in 1987, the property was zoned Single- Family Residential (RS-1). The area was rezoned to RS-3 on November 20, 2007. Applicable Regulations: Allowed uses for this property can be found in Section 310 (Use Table) of the Zoning Ordinance. Development Standards: Residential development setbacks are outlined in Section 501 of the Zoning Ordinance. All required off-street parking and the connection(s) to a public right-of-way are required to be paved. Vision Plan Map: Neighborhood Related Comp Plan Excerpts: Promote better transition between nearby commercial and residential use of land and buildings. "Require a buffer separating commercial, industrial, or agricultural zoned lands from neighborhoods." "Promote neighborhood diversity and security by encouraging a mix of age, income, and housing choices within San Angelo's neighborhoods." 32. 4 "...encourage appropriate and supportive infill development at Neighborhood Centers." "Promote a mix of various uses...to encourage the necessary infill...for Neighborhood Centers." "Establish transition areas to better "scale- down" intensity of use from commercial centers to neighborhoods." "...this [access to Neighborhood Centers] is best achieved through clustered commercial centers, but also through increased access and connectivity between the neighborhoods and their associated Neighborhood Centers." "...slowly reorganize commercial corridors into clusters..." "Create new physical connections to neighborhoods lined with transitional and intermediate uses." "Variety of residential product types - multi-family, townhomes, courtyard homes, patio homes, etc." Special Information Traffic Concerns: Changing the zoning to a less intensive residential district is likely to generate less traffic than if the property remained zoned as-is. Parking Requirements: Dwelling units require a minimum of 2 parking spaces, per Section 511.B of the Zoning Ordinance. Parking Provided: No parking exists as the tract remains vacant and undeveloped. Density: Surrounding uses are predominately characterized as low density residential development. The Vision Plan calls for 33. 5 'Neighborhood' type development for the site in question. Notification Required: Yes Notifications Sent: 10 Responses in Favor: 0 Responses in Opposition: 0 Analysis: In order to approve this zone change request, the City Council members are first required to consider the following criteria: 1. Compatible with Plans and Policies. Whether the proposed amendment is compatible with the Comprehensive Plan and any other land use policies adopted by the Planning Commission or City Council. 2. Consistent with Zoning Ordinance. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would conflict with any portion of this Zoning Ordinance. 3. Compatible with Surrounding Area. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment is compatible with existing and proposed uses surrounding the subject land and is the appropriate zoning district for the land. 4. Changed Conditions. Whether and the extent to which there are changed conditions that require an amendment. 5. Effect on Natural Environment. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment, including but not limited to water and air quality, noise, storm water management, wildlife, vegetation, wetlands and the practical functioning of the natural environment. 6. Community Need. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment addresses a demonstrated community need. 7. Development Patterns. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in a logical and orderly pattern of urban development in the community. The staff recommendation is based upon the statements listed below. 34. 6 Staff recommends approval of this request based on the information outlined below. A zone change from Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse (RS-3) to Single-Family Residential (RS-1) is consistent with citys plans and polices. The Vision Plan envisions Neighborhood development in the area, which is compatible with RS-1, RS-2, RS-3, RM-1, RM-2, MHP and MHS zoning. Conventional single-family detached and zero lot line housing exists on the block. This request seeks to effectively lower the intensity of properties from its current zoning to a less intensive and less densely developed, RS-1 zoning. A zone change to RS-1 inherently creates more open space, through land development standards of the minimum setback and lot size requirements. Such a change is more appropriate for the particular lots in question and as referenced below, will result in orderly and logical development. The request is consistent with aspects of the Zoning Ordinance. The proponents initiated the zone change with the desire to construct single-family detached housing on the corner lots along Nevada Drive. The current zoning does not allow for the construction of single-family detached housing single-family detached housing is permitted in R&E, RS-1, RS-2, RM-1 and MHS districts (Sections 310 and 311, Zoning Ordinance). Staff finds that RS-1 is most appropriate zoning in giving our recommendation the properties do not meet the minimum lot size for R&E zoning, which is an acre. R&E, RM-1 and MHS zoning are not compatible with aspects of the surrounding area which reflects an emerging subdivision community, with compacted single-family detached and zero lot line housing. RS-2 is not the best use of the property, for reasons outlined further in the report. Some uses that include religious Institutions, safety services, schools are allowed in a RS-1 zone with approval through the conditional use process. The subject properties exceed the minimum lot area and dimensions for the proposed zoning (5,000 sq. ft. and 50 x 100), refer to Section 501, of the Zoning Ordinance. The lots are similar size and measure roughly 50 x 115 (approximately 5,750 sq. ft.), please refer to the attached plat. Although the properties in question are currently zoned RS-3 a medium intensity residential district majority of the properties in the generalized area are zoned RS-1. In a similar manner, the general pattern of land development is single-family detached housing. The Capital Heights Addition is comprised of five sections Section 5, the northernmost addition, is one of the exceptions in that majority of the properties is a zoning other than RS-1, RS-3 (39 of the 76 lots are zoned RS-3). This RS-3 zoned area is bounded by Iowa Avenue (to the south), Nevada Drive (to the west) and Florida Avenue (along portions to the east). The subject properties are currently undeveloped, open lots. Lots immediately to the north, west and east of the properties also remain undeveloped at this time. This request represents changed conditions to the Ordinance. The current RS-3 zoning does not allow for single-family detached housing. A change to RS-1 provides opportunities for single-family detached housing, but restricts development of any other residential housing type. This request is consistent with aspects of the Comprehensive 35. 7 Plan, as the Vision Plan envisions the area to remain residential in nature no amendments to the Plan will be needed with approval of this request. The proposed zoning will continue to create a more continuous RS-1 zone that is appropriate, given the nature of the area. Staff expects that the proposed zone change will have minimal negative impacts on the natural environment. Currently the land cover of the lots varies from with grassy to dirt spots to small brush and low vegetation. Less than half the Capital Heights Addition, Section Five approved in 2007 has been completed. As the area fully develops, more and more open land will be converted to residential development. Although the properties are situated nearly 500 feet from the nearest flood zone, the area question has had some storm water and drainage issues in the past. The current zoning allows for the construction of zero lot line homes, twin homes and townhouses. While zero lot line homes, allowed in RS-3 zones, generally have a smaller buildable footprint than conventional single-family homes, development is more compacted with smaller lots and more dwellings also the floor area ratio (FAR) or amount of buildable space in RS-3 zones are actually greater than that of RS-1 zones (60 percent and 40 percent, respectively). Rezoning the area back to RS-1 reduces the allowable buildable space which will minimize potential impacts of drainage in the area. An internal site review conducted by city staff will ensure that any approved project addresses storm water issues and its potential effects on neighboring properties. The requested zoning represents a community need. Single-family detached housing is ideal for the site in question, twin homes and townhomes are more suitable for narrow lots, like the lots to the west of the property. RS-1 zoning allows for more reserved open space with a reduced FAR or floor area ratio of the 60 percent and greater setbacks - this lessens the likelihood of nuisances from adjacent properties and land development may be more aesthetically appealing given the more restrictive spacing requirements. The subject properties are quite distant from major roadways - the southernmost property, Lot 26, measures roughly 1,900 feet north of the Sunset Drive (the nearest major access point, identified as a collector street in the city's Thoroughfare Plan). Future plans seek to extend Dakota Drive to connect with YMCA Drive, to enhance connectivity in the area but it is important to note that, as of yet, there have not been any proposals submitted to connect the streets. The lots in question are slightly larger than the RS-3 zoned lots which many measure between 40' x 115' and 45' x 115'. The properties immediately across the street to the west, along Nevada Drive, are zoned RS-1 continuing the zoning directly across the street represents logical development and will provide land development opportunities that will develop the site in way similar to what already exists. This change, in effect, will create a 'mirror effect' or continuity of land uses along the street. While RS-2 allows for single-family detached housing it also allows for twin homes and two household units on a single property, which may create a disruptive transition and one that is visually stark and unappealing. The 36. 8 change to RS-1 is the most suitable zoning and provides a nice transition to the more intensive RS-3 zoning of the smaller lots to the west.

[Planning Commission makes recommendation; City Council has final authority for approval.] A. Z 13-20: David Jensen A request for a zone change from Zero Lot Line, Twinhome and Townhouse Residential (RS-3) to Single-family Residential (RS-1) to allow for single-family detached homes, on the following property: 1650 Iowa Avenue, 1649 and 1650 Nebraska Avenue, located at the east corner lots at the intersections of Nevada Drive and Iowa Avenue and Nevada Drive and Nebraska Avenue, more specifically occupying the Capitol Heights Addition, Section 5, Block 6, Lot 42 and Block 11, Lot 1 and 26, in south central San Angelo. Kevin Boyd, Planner came forward to present the case consistent with staff's recommendation of approval. Ten notices were sent out for this request and none were received. Some general characteristics of the area were shared and Mr. Boyd stated that this area had developed substantially since the original aerial photo was taken and the photos taken as a result of this request at the street level had confirmed this. The criteria mandated of the request was covered by staff and it has also been found that this request will be consistent with the aspects of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance. By allowing this zone change, no replat of the property would be required as the lots currently meet the minimum lot size required for RS-1 zoned properties. Mr. Wynne asked about if this request would change the lot sizes. Mr. Boyd answered that only the zoning would be changed as a result of this request. No one came forward to speak in favor or in opposition of the request. Mr. Wynne stated he had no issues with the request; Darlene Jones thought this request would provide an aesthetically pleasing transition as staff had found as well. Darlene Jones made a motion to approve as presented and this was seconded by Valerie Priess. The motion passed 5-0. 39.
