S
taff Presentation: Mr. Ian Clowes, City Planner, presented staff’s report on a zone change
requestby Adrianne Feller, applicant, on behalf of Victor G. Rocha, owner. The property in
question is currently zoned Large Lot (LLD) and the applicant has requested a rezone of the
propertyto Low-Density Residential (R-1), allowingfor a subdivision of the 1.0 acre tract into
2 separate parcels, each at a half acre in size. This would allow for a home to be built on the
newly-vacant parcel. Mr. Clowes shows that the surrounding zoning districts is a mixture of
Large Lot (LLD) and Low-Density Residential (R-1). City staff supports the zone change
requested by the applicant.

restrictions of some sort that can be integrated into the approval of the zone change. Mr.
Clark Askins points to a previous case and shows how it’s not possible. Nearly all of the

“subdivision” to be developed in the Lomax area (where this property is located) and cause a
chain of similar situations.

for a Hotel/Motel Use, to locate on a 2.28 acre tract of land legally described as Lots 1

16 and 19 32, Block 1103 and East 30 of 7 St. ROW and Adjacent 16 foot Alley La

DISCUSSION
Location:
The subject site is located at 711 W. Fairmont Pkwy.
Background Information:
The property is currently partially occupied by a surface parking lot for the adjacent US
Post Office and is zoned General Commercial (GC). The applicant is interested in
removing the existing paving and redeveloping the site. Current plans call for a Holiday
Inn Express and Suites hotel to occupy the entire 2.28 acres.
This same request was brought to the Planning and Zoning Commission at the August
16, 2018 regular meeting. At that meeting, the commission voted to recommend denial
based on the proposed location of the hotel. At their September 24, 2018 meeting, the
City Council voted 7-2 to uphold the commissions recommendation to deny the
proposed SCUP.
The attached Exhibit B shows the zoning of the subject property and surrounding
properties. The following table summarizes the surrounding zoning and land uses:
