Phase I (2.8 acres) of the total development (8.2628 acres) being portions of Outlots 718 and 719 of the W. B. Lawrence Subdivision, Volume 83, Page 344, HC.D.R. out of the William M. Jones Survey, A-482, La Porte, Harris County, Texas. The property, known as Fairwood Office Park, is located at the northwest comer of Underwood Road and Fairmont Parkway. Planned Unit Development (p.U.D.) Office Building (See Exhibit A.) The proposed site for the Fairwood Office Park is located at the northwest comer of Underwood Road and Fairmont Parkway just south of Caniff Road. The site is near a low-density residential development, an apartment complex, a mixture of commercial uses, and an Industrial Park across Fairmont Parkway. On September 20, 2001, the Planning and Zoning Commission considered approval of the Rezone Request #ROI-005. The request asked for the rezoning from Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). After taking comments and questions, the Commission recommended approval to the City Council. At the October 22, 2001 meeting, City Council passed and approved Ordinance 1501-SS, which authorized the P.U.D. zoning of the property. In addition, the applicant recognized our current NC zoning uses would satisfy most of his contemplated uses; however, some uses would require GC zoning. The applicant submitted a General Plan for a four phased project to build an office park with a small retaiVshopping area. (See the General Plan.) Upon submittal of the General Plan, the applicant was also required to obtain a Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) for Phase I (2.8 acres). In accordance with the Zoning ordinance, this SCUf is being processed' simultaneously' with the Fairwood Office Park General Plan. Fairwood Park, Phase I SCUOI-004 November 29, 200 I Page 2 of2 Analysis: e . Section 106-217 of the Code of Ordinances establishes the following criteria for review of development projects within a PUD zoning district: · Compatibility of uses - Uses surrounding the property include an apartment complex, a gas station, and a church. For Phase I, this SCUP is limited to general office building uses and other office activities - no warehousing, storage, installation, gambling, et~. See Exhibit A for a list of approved uses. · Conditions - Applicant is limited to developing the property with the uses agreed upon in Exhibit A. There are no additional conditions for the applicant to meet to obtain this SCUP. Recommendation: Statfrecommends approval of the Special Conditional Use Permit for Phase I (covering 2.8 acres) with the following conditions: 1. The permitted uses in Phase I are limited to those shown on Exhibit A. 2. The developer shall use the covenants and restrictions listed in Exhibit B. Options available to the Commission are as follows: · Approve the SCUP as filed. · Approve the SCUP with specific conditions either recommended by staff or amended by the Commission. · Disapprove the SCUP. If approved, a recommendation from the Commission on this SCUP will be forwarded to City Council for Final consideration. If approved by Council, the applicant shall be authorized to submit a Minor Site Plan for Phase 1. For subsequent development, the applicant must request a Special Conditional Use Permit for each phase of development (IT, ill, and IV).
