SCU 413-91000001 <br />Buffalo Horn <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />The subject property is zoned Planned Unit Development (PUD). <br />Development in a PUD zoning district requires a site plan or a general <br />plan to be filed and processed simultaneously along with an application <br />for a Special Conditional Use Permit. <br />Analysis: Section 106-659 of the Code of Ordinances establishes the following criteria <br />for review of the development projects within a PUD zone. <br />Land Use — The City's Future Land Use Plan 2012 shows this area <br />developing with heavy industrial uses. The existing land uses of nearby <br />properties are predominantly light industrial and business industrial. Port <br />Crossing Business Park is located just north of this undeveloped land. In <br />addition, the Bayshore Industrial, Inc. is located south of McCabe Road in <br />the Bayport Industrial District — Extra Territorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) of La <br />Porte. <br />Transportation — The project is located near State Highway 146, a primary <br />arterial and major truck route. As a result, this project provides more than <br />adequate accessibility for circulation of traffic. All traffic entering/existing <br />will be through McCabe Road and South 16t' Street. There should be a <br />minimal impact on traffic flow within the business park and the vicinity. <br />Topography — This area is relatively flat and stable and should not be an <br />obstacle to this type of development. <br />Exxon/Mobil Pipeline Easement - Pipeline easement may be an obstacle <br />for this development. However, the plan shows that pipeline easement and <br />underground pipelines will be re-routed around the proposed building <br />location. A letter of approval from Exxon/Mobil shall be required at the time <br />of development site plan submittal. <br />Utilities and Drainage — Public facilities and services are sufficient to <br />handle the supply of potable water, but require upgrading for fire protection <br />in the area. In addition, provisions must be made to ensure sufficient utility <br />extensions are provided to serve this development. Storm water drainage will <br />be conveyed through storm sewer system in the easement on the west side of <br />South 16t' Street, which outfalls into the existing regional detention within <br />the Port Crossing Business Park. Regional detention pond is designed to <br />accommodate properties south of West `K' Street and all of the Port <br />Crossing Business Park. This stormwater/detention facility has been <br />designed in accordance with the City and HCFCD specifications. <br />2 <br />
