Special Conditional Use Permit #98-001
Texas Import/Export Park
Staff Report Texas Import/Export Park, Phase I- March 3,1999
Special Conditional Use Permit #98-001
uest: Special Conditional Use Permit Request #98-001
Proposed Development within a Planned Unit Development (PUD) Zone
Requested La Porte 81, Ltd., La Porte 82, Ltd., La Porte 115, Ltd., by Stuart
Haynsworth, General Partner, and Daetwyler Enterprises Corp.
Requested For: Approximately 292 acre tract in the Geo B. McKinstry, A47; Wm. P. Harris
Survey, A-30; Johnson Hunter Survey, A-35 City of La Porte, Harris
County, Texas. The property is located in the 2000 Block of Powell Road
(So. 16I Street).
Present Zoning: Planned Unit Development (PUD)
Requested Use: Industrial, Commercial and Multi -Family Residential
Background: Texas Import/Export Park is a proposed industrial, commercial and multi-
family residential development to be located in an area south of Fairmont
Parkway, north of McCabe Road and between existing Southern Pacific
railroad tracks and State Highway 146 South.
As part of a PUD, the applicant is responsible for submitting a Special
Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) Request and a General Plan. The
Commission initiated a Public Hearing for the SCUP request and General
Plan on July 21, 1998 and concluded that public hearing on August 20, 1998.
The SCUP request and General Plan are both on the Agenda as an action
item; this will allow them to be processed simultaneously as described in
Sect. 106-659 of the City's Code of Ordinances. A Development Agreement
containing several exhibits is also a vital part of this approval request
Analysis: This analysis portion will attempt to add insight to the significant
components of the development submittal. The development submittal is
assembled in a fashion where the Development Agreement is the main
document and the SCUP, General Plan and other documents are exhibits to
the Development Agreement.
Development Agreement:
Article II General Plan and Land Use — The General Plan is identified as
Exhibit "C" and contains general information regarding the development of
the entire 292-acre site. Significant features of the General Plan are the
contemplated land uses, open space and storm water detention areas,
landscape and buffer areas and roadway network. Article H also addresses
additional land use restrictions. These are more specifically defined in
Exhibit "D" which will be discussed later in this analysis.
Article III Restrictive Covenants — Restrictive covenants are identified as
Exhibit "E" and are in draft form for this phase of the development. Future
stages of this PUD development will require finalizing and recording
Texas Import/Export Park Rase I •
SCU98-001
March 3, 1999
Page 2 of 4
covenants with subdivision plats. Significant components of the covenants
will be discussed later.
Article V Open Space/Trail, Buffering and Beautification — The open
space and trail as identified in this project are both consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan. The General Plan (Exhibit "C") and Exhibit "F" show
the relationship of these features and also demonstrates how the trail system,
open space area, and the stormwater detention system are interrelated. This
Article provides an option where the City may elect to accept these facilities
depending on the final design. Buffering and beautification is also addressed
under Article V. As shown on the General Plan, a 100' wide landscape
buffer is provided along the west side of Powell Road. A 50' wide
landscape buffer is provided along SH146. In addition, landscaping will be
provided within building setback areas and easements throughout the project.
Signage is part of this Article, but is more specifically defined in the
Restrictive Covenants (Exhibit "E). Staff is requesting that a consistent
theme and design be used for all signs within this development.
Article VI Schedule — The schedule identifies the infrastructure components
that will be needed for Phase I. As additional phases are proposed, staff will
review the infrastructure schedule to insure that adequate facilities are being
constructed to serve the needs of this project.
Article VM Traffic Control Plan — Truck traffic is typically associated
with this type of commercial and industrial development. In an attempt to
reasonably control truck traffic, Exhibit "G" is included to further define
how truck traffic will be handled. This agreement contemplates that all
trucks will enter and leave the site via SH146 and Wharton Weems Blvd.
and no trucks will proceed north along Powell Road to Fairmont Parkway.
The use of signs, driveway design, routing plans, and individual driver
instruction will be used to implement these provisions. This Article also
addresses driveway access. Staff and the developer have attempted to limit
the installation of driveways within this project by implementing shared -
access and cross -access easements. More specific review of this will occur
during site plan and plat review as subsequent phases develop. The ultimate
total number of drives along the SH146 feeder road is limited to 18. This
assumes that some of the larger tracts will require at least two drives, while
some smaller tracts may not require any drives and will utilize a shared
access. Paragraph 8.4 recognizes the profound benefits of a grade separation
between Fairmont Parkway and the Union Pacific Railroad (Overpass). The
developer has agreed to contribute $50,000 towards a preliminary
engineering study that is the first step in getting this overpass in place. A
very thorough preliminary engineering study is estimated to cost $70,000.
Article IX Site Rail Traffic — The developer has committed to managing
on -site rail activities to establish efficient rail car movements that may
Texas Import/Export Park, Phase I
SCU98-001
March 3, 1999
Page 3 of 4
decrease conflicts at Fairmont Parkway. Also, the maximum number of rail
lines is established at 22 and no rail lines will cross Powell Road.
Article X Utilities, Drainage — Staff and the developer have agreed that the
water system will need to deliver between 4000 and 6000 gallons per minute
to provide suitable fire protection. This may be accomplished by tapping
into the City's existing 16-inch water line on the east side of SH146.
Sanitary sewer service can be provided via the City's existing trunk sewer
main in the K Street right-of-way just south of Fairmont Parkway.
Stormwater facilities will be designed in accordance with City and HCFCD
requirements. Design of stormwater detention basins will accommodate
features of the Open Space/Trail System.
Exhibit "B" Metes and Bounds Description
This exhibit establishes the overall boundary of this development. This
boundary is shown on the General Plan.
Exhibit "C" General Plan
The General Plan basically depicts the ultimate layout of the development. It
identifies future land uses, street alignment, utilities and drainage, buffer and
setback areas.
Exhibit "D" Land Use Exceptions
The General Plan makes broad references to land use categories. This
exhibit further defines the land uses that are acceptable within various tracts
of this development. Basically, uses that are currently permitted within our
zoning ordinance are permitted here with some exceptions. In the Business
and Retail (GC) tracts, general contractors, automotive services, outdoor
sales and outdoor storage are not permitted. In the Office/Warehouse (BI)
tracts, general contractors, automotive services, outdoor sales and outdoor
storage, and off -premise signs are not permitted. In the Light Industrial (LI)
tracts, manufacturing of chemicals, outside storage including shipping
containers, off -premise signs and a few other uses are not permitted. In
Reserve "A" labeled as Rail/Warehouse the uses permitted in the (LI) tracts
are permitted here including rail activities. Shipping containers that are in
transit or are being used to deliver material into or out of the project will be
permitted. This use of shipping containers may be incidental to some
permitted uses.
Exhibit "E" Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions
At this stage, this exhibit is in draft form. As this development progresses,
and plats are filed for each section, the restrictive covenants will be finalized
and filed for record along with the subdivision plats. The Restrictive
L
Texas Import/Export Park, Phase I
SCU98-001
March 3, 1999
Page 4 of 4
Covenants document provides initial and long-term property control.
Through the assessment of fees, the Property Owner's Association maintains
landscaped areas, common areas, perimeter fences and open space areas.
Some of the significant property controls that the Restrictive Covenants
provides are in the areas of architectural design of buildings, landscaping,
and signs. In the area of architectural design, the document states that
exterior walls shall have brick, exposed aggregate concrete, or glass and that
no buildings shall be covered with aluminum, iron, or steel. With regard to
landscaping, staff is only requesting that a uniform design theme be utilized
throughout this project. This is also the case with signs. Uniform design and
application of signage to create a unified campus appearance is the intent.
Exhibit "F" Preliminary Detention / Open Space Plan
This exhibit shows cross -sections and some detail of how the trail system,
open space areas, and stormwater detention systems will interrelate. It is
anticipated that all these systems will be constructed in phases as each is
needed to support the section being developed. The Development
Agreement allows for the City to accept the trail and open space systems
depending on the final design and function.
Exhibit "G" Traffic Control Plan
The purpose of this exhibit is to insure the efficient flow of traffic to, from
and within the project in a manner that will minimize adverse impacts to the
existing thoroughfare system of the area. Traffic control features established
in this exhibit will be enforced through the Restrictive Covenants with
oversight by the City. The Traffic Control Plan will be implemented through
site plan design, driveway design, and the placement of esplanade openings.
This exhibit also includes guidelines that can be used to assist in designing
facilities that will better accommodate truck traffic.
Exhibit "H" Harris County Thoroughfare Design Guidelines
This exhibit is intended to provide design assistance for all the public
roadways within this development. These guidelines require additional
pavement thickness among other requirements in anticipation of the traffic
loading this development will generate.
Conclusion: Staff and the Developer have worked hard on a development proposal that
we feel is in the best interest of the City of LaPorte. All applicable
elements of the Comprehensive Plan were reviewed and incorporated into
this development proposal. Staff is recommending approval of the Special
Conditional Use Permit, General Plan, Development Agreement, and all
Exhibits contained therein as presented.

ARTICLE Vill. TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN
8.1 Traffic Control Plan. The Owner -Developer shall establish a Traffic
Control Plan for the entire project to regulate to the extent practical project -
generated vehicular traffic. In Section One, based on the target market
use, the Traffic Control Plan (shown on the attached Exhibit G) will include
designated truck routes to and from the site, segregation of automobile
traffic, limitation of access from public streets (driveways) and utilization of
common cross easements between tracts for internal circulation.
8.2 Truck Traffic. This controlled traffic will be directed to State
Highway 146 via Powell Road to Wharton Weems Blvd., both to be
constructed as 4-lane roadways to Harris County Major Thoroughfare
Standards (Exhibit "H") in Phase I development as shown on Exhibit "C" -
General Plan. Project driveways will be constructed to induce proper
directional movement to preempt to the extent practical north bound traffic
on Powell Road. This will be complemented by traffic signage as

City and Developer rail consultants, as evidence of the commitment to the
City to improve rail efficiency in the area, reduce conflicts at Fairmont
Parkway, and potentially decrease current rail impacts. On -site rail
facilities and operations shall be controlled by Owner -Developer in order to
maximize rail efficiency and minimize peak hour conflicts with vehicular
traffic at Fairmont Parkway. Owner - Developer agrees and acknowledges
the rail yard as depicted on the General Plan shall be limited to a maximum
of 22 rail lines and that no rail lines or sidings will extend to the east side of
Powell Road.
ARTICLE X. UTILITIES, DRAINAGE
10.1 Utilities, Drainage. The Owner -Developer shall design and
construct adequate water, wastewater, and drainage facilities to serve
each phase of this project in accordance with City requirements and as
further defined by this Agreement. As to water and sanitary sewer, this
would include a water system that would deliver 4-6,000 gallons per minute
necessary for sprinklered fire protection with a loop connection to the 16"
main on the east side of S.H. 146 and a gravity wastewater disposal
system that flows into a 60" trunk line on "K" street south of Fairmont
Parkway.
The Developer will provide a drainage study for the Tract. The study and
design of drainage improvements shall meet the requirements and
approval of the City and Harris County Flood Control District. Owner -
Developer's representative agrees to meet with City, prior to design of
public utilities, to discuss design criteria standards and policies. City shall
approve all construction plans and specifications for public improvements.
ARTICLE XI. BUILDING LINES
11.1 Building Lines. The Owner -Developer shall establish building lines
appropriate to the use, but not less than those prescribed in the City Code
of Ordinances. Within the industrial area west of Powell Road there will be
a landscaped 100-foot buffer and building line along Powell Road.
Similarly, along State Hi hway 146, a 50-foot landscape buffer and
building line tlz�y'���R°�', 7'}, These respective 100 and 50 feet
landscape buffers shall be kept free from all other uses with the exception
of signage, approved drives and entrances. Owner -Developer agrees that
other building lines will be either equal to or greater than that required by
ordinance for the zoning use shown and shall be based on site use and
orientation of the improvements or as shown on the General Plan.

DRA" TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN
TEXAS IMPORT EXPORT PARK
An Approximate 292-acme Mixed Use Development
La Porte, Tares
A commercial mixed use project is to be constructed within a PM zoning district in the City of
La Porte. Terse. This project known as rams InVere-] qwl PW* (Project) cxxmbia as a
planned comumunity, a Rill range of uses from umh family to rail- served indu arial. Pursuant to
the adoption of a Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) by the City, this document is to provide
guidance as to the control of ir>tenaal and a msual automobile and truck trait generated by the
Project. While the General Plan for the Project generally designates the various uses, by
ordinance each individual building or dewdopmi:nt site will require anther Sita Plan review. That
review proceed will, therefore. include an expansion of the Traffic Control Plan to address site
specffia issues particular to that use or plan as an addendum to this document.
The goal of the Traffic Control Plan is to insure the efficient How of traffic to and flOm and within
the Project in a manner that will minimize additional adverse impacts to the eodaft thoroughfare
system of the areait is intaxled that the guidanca = Wished hemin shall be cngorced by the
Project Property Owners Association (Association) with oversight by the City. This guidance is
to be used in the preparation of development site plans as well as the implementatim of
operational parametera for internal control of all'vehicnlar traffic by the Owner -Developer and
assigaa. iodduding project managers, tenants, and subsequent individual site owners or businesses.
The site is served by a controlled access principle arterial, State Highway 146, with a planned
interchange at Wharton Weems Boulevard, a planned 44ane collector street, bisecting the Project
and turning into Powell Rnad as a parallel &cii ty to S.H. 146. Due to the relatively limited
service area of theWharton Weem.-Powell connection, it will more than adequately accommodate
anticipated traffic generated by such a Project.
Thd raftwe, managers, tenuants, and business owner -operators we to provide routing instructions
for all traffic serving sites within the Project. This shall include employees, company tucks and
vehicles, customers, carriers, vendors or regular contractors making repetitive ddiv=cs.
TRAFFIC CONTROL GEJIYfI', MS
The following initial guidelines address the essential initial issues of traffic control relative to the
Project and may be onended as more detailed planning and site specific iemm develop.

Desig
n n of Service Vehicle Facilities
Rear loading/unloading is much more efficient and convenient than side
loading. The truck circulation pattern and loading dock position should be
designed for a left side back -in maneuver (see Figure 7-6). this allows
the driver to sight along the left side of the vehicle when backing. The
apron space (see Figure 7-7) should be adequate to a11ow the truck. to back
In and pull in cne maneuver. When semi -tractor -trailer combinations may be
expected the WB-50 vehicle (50 ft. eighteen wheeler) should be used for
design. Dimensions: for 900 facilities are given in Figure 7-8.

Staff Report Summer Winds, Section III March 3,1999
Preliminary Plat
Requested By: Earl W. Wilburn, Jr., Secretary
Summer Winds, LLC
Requested For: A 10 Acres of Land being Outlot 697 to the W. B. Lawrence Subdivision
Volume 83, Page 344, H.C.D.R out of the William M. Jones Survey, A-482,
City of LaPorte, Harris County, Texas.
Present ZoninE: Low Density Residential (R-1)
Requested Use: Residential Subdivision
Background: Summer Winds is a residential subdivision located on the north side of
Fairmont Parkway, approximately 3700 block of Underwood Road. Under
the terms of Development Ordinance 1444, it is classified as a major
subdivision. The Amended General Plan for the subdivision was Approved
by the Commission on February18, 1999.
Analysis: Summer Winds Section III proposes three blocks, 37 lots, and one restricted
reserve approximately 0.5 acre for detention pond. About four dwelling units
per acre conform to the City's Comprehensive Plan. The proposed
subdivision will be located in Park Zone 1. The City's Development
Ordinance prohibits the dedication of parkland less than one acre in size;
therefore, money in lieu of parkland would be required at or prior to the time
of final plat approval.
Staff would note that Section 5.02 of the Development Ordinance empowers
the Commission to require pedestrian sidewalks when it feels their inclusion
will serve the public interest. Staff recommends the inclusion of sidewalks
within the Subdivision. Responsibility for construction of the walks should
be specified by covenant as well as stated in writing on the final plat
Conclusion: Staff has reviewed the plan and found it to be in accordance with the zoning
and development ordinance of the City. Staff recommends approval of the
preliminary plat with provision that:
Summer Winds — Section

Page 2 of 2
Detention pond ownership and maintenance by the Homeowner's

and on the face of the plat shall dedicate or transfer ownership of
detention reserve to the Homeowner's Association.

within the subdivision and shall be stated in writing on the front of the
final plat.
