Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting <br />November 15, 2018 <br />SCUP 18-91000014 <br /> <br /> <br />Planning and Development Department <br />Staff Report <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />ISSUE <br /> <br />Should the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend approval of a SCUP to allow <br />for a Hotel/Motel Use, to locate on a 2.28 acre tract of land legally described as Lots 1 <br />th <br />16 and 19 32, Block 1103 and East 30 of 7 St. ROW and Adjacent 16 foot Alley La <br />Porte Subdivision? <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />Location: <br />The subject site is located at 711 W. Fairmont Pkwy. <br /> <br />Background Information: <br />The property is currently partially occupied by a surface parking lot for the adjacent US <br />Post Office and is zoned General Commercial (GC). The applicant is interested in <br />removing the existing paving and redeveloping the site. Current plans call for a Holiday <br />Inn Express and Suites hotel to occupy the entire 2.28 acres. <br /> <br />This same request was brought to the Planning and Zoning Commission at the August <br />16, 2018 regular meeting. At that meeting, the commission voted to recommend denial <br />based on the proposed location of the hotel. At their September 24, 2018 meeting, the <br />City Council voted 7-2 to uphold the commissions recommendation to deny the <br />proposed SCUP. <br /> <br />The attached Exhibit B shows the zoning of the subject property and surrounding <br />properties.
