Staff Report
January 20, 2005
Replacement of the "Official" Zoning District Map
Back2round:
Section 106-301 of the Zoning Ordinance requires that the official copies ofthe zoning map be on file at the City.
One is the "original" zoning map that remains unchanged from its original adoption. The other is an "official"
zoning map that is amended and updated from time to time as zone changes are approved by City Council. This
activity to show amendments to the "official zoning maps occurred up until 1992. At that time, the City switched to
a computer based format for our zoning map. Zoning map amendments are accurately shown on this computer map;
however use of the amended "official" zoning map ended in 1992.
Section 106-306 of the zoning ordinance provides for the adoption of a replacement map. This new map will utilize
our GIS based technology and become the "official" or working map that shows current zoning districts based on
all approved amendments to date. The "original" zoning map on file with the City Secretary will not be affected at
all by this action.
Recommendations/Conclusions:
According to Section 106-306, "when the official zoning map becomes difficult to interpret because of the nature or
number of changes and additions, the City Council, may by resolution, adopt a new official zoning map based on
review and written report from the Planning and Zoning Commission." The previous "official" zoning map would
be retained and preserved with all available records pertaining to its adoption and amendments.
Under the provisions found in Section 106-306, Staff recommends that the Commission submits a report asking
Council to adopt a new official zoning district map, which will supersede the prior official zoning district map.
The salient features of the new official zoning district map are as follows:
. Easier to determine zoning boundaries;
. Shows actual parcels of data from the Harris County Appraisal District;
. Shows ownership property lines; and
. Correct text omissions and Mayor's signatures.
This report and the Commission's recommendation will be forwarded to City Council for Consideration at their
February 14,2005 meeting. The Commission is asked to take action on this item as presented.
Options to the Commission:
. Forward a report to Council recommending the adoption of a GIS based "official" zoning map that will
replace the prior "official" zoning map.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
Section 106-306 of the zoning ordinance provides for the adoption of a replacement "official" zoning
map. This new map will utilize our GIS based computer technology and become the "official" or working
map that shows current zoning districts based on all approved amendments to date. The "original" zoning
map, on file with the City Secretary, will not be affected at all by this action. The previous "official"
zoning map would be retained and preserved with all available records pertaining to its adoption and
amendments.
The new official zoning district map has some excellent features, e.g. easier to determine the zoning
boundaries, shows actual parcels of data from the Harris County Appraisal District (HCAD), and
identifies actual ownership lines. .
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their meeting on January 20, 2005, voted unanimously to
recommend City Council adopt a resolution to approve a new official zoning district map wi GIS
applications.
Action Reauired bv Council:
1. Adopt a resolution replacing the zoning map with a new GIS based official zoning map.
Approved for City Council Ae:enda
