Requested By: Requested For: Present Zoning: Requested Use: Bacqround: Analysis: Approval of General Plan for 107 acre tract and Special Conditional Use Permit for 16.2 acre tract. Mr. Edward Dutko, General Partner, Forest Holdings Ltd., L.L.P, A 107 acre tract out of the W. P. Harris Swvey, A-30, La Porte, Harris County, Texas (Exhibit A). This property is further described as being located in the 1200 Block of McCabe Road. The project is identified as the Park Forest Apartments. Neighborhood Commercial (NC), Planned Unit Development (PUD), and Low Density Residential (R-1) Multi-Family Residential This property is located at the southwest comer of SH 146 and McCabe Road. It is bounded on the east by Shady River Subdivision and on the south by Shoreacres, Mr, Ed Dutko made a presentation of his proposed General Plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 19, 1999. This General Plan, which was a modification from previous development submittals, demonstrated that 75.7 of the 107 acres would need to be preserved based on a pennit he received from the US Army Corps of Engineers. The permit states that a Conservation Easement will need to be established that will preserve the 75.7 acres in perpetuity, In addition, the permit states that noxious plant species such as Chinese tallow, cattail, and willow will be controlled for a period of 5 years, The remaining developable acreage shows 28.5 acres as high-density residential and 1.35 acres as a commercial corner (Exhibit B). The Commission was receptive to this plan and suggested Mr. Dutko proceed with formal submittals for Phase 1 which is approximately 16 acres in the existing PUD zoning district. Development in a PUD zoning district requires that a General Plan (for the entire proposed project) and a Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) (for the initial phase of development) be submitted and processed simultaneously, Upon approval of the General Plan and SCUP the applicant would be authorized to submit a Major Development Site Plan. This Site Plan would be reviewed and acted upon by the Commission. Approval of the Site Plan would allow the applicant to submit building plans for review and then to begin construction of the project. Section 106-659 of the Code of Ordinances establishes the following criteria for review of development projects within a PUD zoning district: e e Park Forest Apts. , Phase I SCUOO-OOl September 21,2000 Page 2 on · Uses - Review of the City's adopted Land Use Plan indicates this 107 acre area was envisioned as developing as low density residential with a small comer for commercial uses. Although the Forest Park Apartments is not considered to be low density residential, if you take into consideration the 75.7 acre Conservation Easement, the overall 107 acre tract yields dwelling units per acre that is comparable to low density residential. The proposed high-density residential use should not be detrimental to the use and enjoyment of surrounding properties. With the 75,7 acre Conservation Easement, this development will be well buffered. During review of the site plan, staff and the Commission should look for sufficient open space, adequate parking, and a good mix of recreational amenities. With regard to the commercial area, the proposed commercial comer is an ideal location for a convenience type activity. · Streets - Being located at the comer of SH 146 and McCabe Road provides more than adequate accessibility into and out of this site. Access into Phase 1 and Phase 2 of this development will be provided by a private drive that is shown on the General Plan. At the south boundary of this General Plan , the developer has shown a road right-of-way to serve existing lots in the City of Shoreacres. Although the road will need to be constructed at some time in the future, it should not fall under the maintenance responsibility of La Porte. · Topography - this area is relatively flat and stable and should not be an obstacle to this type of development · Density - staff utilized the Land Use Plan as a guide. With the designated land use as Low Density Residential and applying a development ratio of 4.8 units per acre (Section 106-333) to 107 acres, this property may have, at one time, yielded approximately 514 dwelling units. This current plan designates only 26 acres to be developed as residential. If we applied a density of 19.7 units per acre, this would yield the same number of total dwelling units. This density is considerably less than the 27 units per acre allowed in R-3 zoning districts. Other examples of multi-family residential projects are the Fainnont Oaks Apts. that has a density of approximately 16 units per acre and the Plaza at San Jacinto Park on Luella Blvd. that has a density of 24 units per acre. · Utilities - there are sufficient water distribution facilities along McCabe Road to supply potable water and fire protection to this proposed project. Provisions will have to be made to ensure that sufficient utility extensions can be made to serve Phase 2, Sanitary sewer service is not readily available to this site. There is a sewer force main located along the south line of this property that transports sewer to the Gulf Coast Waste Disposal Authority plant. A tie-in can be made to this force main but the City will need to make improvements to a nearby lift station in order to accommodate the additional flow from this project. The City has anticipated upgrading this lift station and funds are budgeted to e e Park Forest Apts. , Phase I SCUOO-oO 1 September 21,2000 Page 3 of 3 accomplish this, The applicant, through a Sewer Service Agreement, should commit to paying for the lift station improvements needed to provide sewer service to his project and be responsible for the on-site improvements needed to serve this project. The City has prepared a plan for providing sewer service to unserved areas of southeast La Porte. The plan calls for a regional lift station to be constructed in the vicinity of :McCabe Road and Taylor Bayou. This General Plan should show a 50' x 50' lift station site adjacent to McCabe Road and Taylor Bayou. The dedication of this site may be negotiated in the Sewer Service Agreement. · Drainage - this property lies within the Taylor Bayou watershed. There are not sufficient channel improvements to directly receive stonn water runoff from this project. The simplest solution would be for the applicant to provide stonn water detention within his project, Recommendation: Based on items discussed under Analysis, staff recommends approval of the General Plan covering 107 acres and the Special Conditional Use Pennit covering 16.2 acres with the tollowing conditions: 1. The overall density of the project (phases 1 and 2) shall not exceed 19.7 dwelling units per acre, 2. The applicant shall enter into Sewer Service Agreement and commit to paying for lift station upgrades related to this development project. 3. This action in no way commits the City to any maintenance responsibilities for the 75,7 acre Conservation Easement. A recommendation from the Commission on this Special Conditional Use Permit will be forwarded to City Council for tinal consideration. If approved by Council, the applicant would be authorized to proceed with submittal of a Major Development Site Plan for Phase One. The Phase Two development as proposed, will require the applicant to request a zone change from the current R-I to PUD and then submit an application for a Special Conditional Use Penn it. Approval of Phase 1 in no way demonstrates any level of approval for the future Phase 2. . "I"' '. , , - , -- .:' '-~. ..: ... ';~ .. . ::;:&..l '... ". ., " I I !

Mr. Edward Dutko, General Partner, Forest Holdings Ltd., L.L.P. A 107 acre tract out of the W. P. Harris Swvey, A-30, La Porte, Harris County, Texas (Exhibit A). This property is further described as being located in the 1200 Block of McCabe Road. The project is identified as the Park Forest Apartments. . Neighborhood Commercial (NC), Planned Unit Development (PUD), and Low Density Residential (R-1) Multi-Family Residential This property is located at the southwest comer of SH 146 and McCabe Road. It is bounded on the east by Shady River Subdivision and on the south by Shoreacres. Mr. Ed Dutko made a presentation of his proposed General Plan to the Planning and Zoning Commission on August 19, 1999. This General Plan, which was a modification from previous development submittals, demonstrated that 75.7 of the 107 acres would need to be preserved based on a pennit he received from the US Army Corps of Engineers. The permit states that a Conservation Easement will need to be established that will preselVe the 75.7 acres in perpetuity. In addition, the permit states that noxious plant species such as Chinese tallow, cattail, and willow will be controlled for a period of 5 years. The remaining developable acreage shows 28.5 acres as high-density residential and 1.35 acres as a commercial comer (Exhibit B). The Commission was receptive to this plan and suggested Mr. Dutko proceed with formal submittals for Phase 1 which is approximately 16 acres in the existing PUD zoning district. Development in a PUD zoning district requires that a General Plan (for the entire proposed project) and a Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) (for the initial phase of development) be submitted and processed simultaneously. Upon approval of the General Plan and SCUP the applicant would be authorized to submit a Major Development Site Plan. This Site Plan would be reviewed and acted upon by the Commission. Approval of the Site Plan would allow the applicant to submit building plans for review and then,to begin construction of the project. Section 106-659 of the Code of Ordinances establishes the following criteria for review o( development projects within a PUD zoning district: Parle Forest Apts. ,Phase I SCUOO-OO 1 September 21,2000 Page 2 of 3 e e · Uses - Review of the City's adopted Land Use Plan indicates this 107 acre area was envisioned as developing as low density residential with a small comer for commercial uses. Although the Forest Park Apartments is not considered to be low density residential, if you take into consideration the 75.7 acre Conservation Easement, the overall 107 acre tract yields dwelling units per acre that is comparable to low density residential. The proposed high-density residential use should not be de1rimental to the use and enjoyment of surrounding properties. With the 75.7 acre Conservation Easement, this development will be well buffered. During review of the site plan, staff and the Commission should look for sufficient open space, adequate parking, and a good mix of recreational amenities. With regard to the commercial area, the proposed co~mercial comer is an ideal location for a convenience type activity. · Streets - Being located at the comer of SH 146 and McCabe Road provides more than adequate accessibility into and out of this site. Access into Phase 1 and Phase 2 of this development will be provided by a private drive that is shown on the General Plan, At the south boundary of this General Plan , the developer has shown a road right-of-way to serve existing lots in the City of Shoreacres. Although the road will need to be constructed at some time in the future, it should not fall under the maintenance responsibility of La Porte. · Topography - this area is relatively flat and stable and should not be an obstacle to this type of development. · Density - staff utilized the Land Use Plan as a guide. With the designated land use as Low Density Residential and applying a development ratio of 4.8 units per acre (Section 106-333) to 107 acres, this property may have, at one time, yielded approximately 514 dwelling units. This current plan designates only 26 acres to be developed as residential. If we applied a density of 19.7 units per acre, this would yield the same number of total dwelling units. This density is considerably less than the 27 units per acre allowed in R-3 zoning districts. Other examples of multi-family residential projects are the Fairmont Oaks Apts. that has a density of approximately 16 units per acre and the Plaza at San Jacinto Park on Luella Blvd. that has a density of 24 units per acre. ' · Utilities - there are sufficient water distribution facilities along McCabe Road to supply potable water and fire protection to this proposed project. Provisions will have to be made to ensure that sufficient utility extensions can'be made to serve Phase 2. Sanitary sewer service is not readily available to this site. There is a sewer force main located along the south line of this property that transports sewer to the Gulf Coast Waste Disposal Authority plant. A tie-in can be made to this force main but the City will need to make improvements to a nearby lift station in order to accommodate the additional flow from this project. The City has anticipated upgrading, this lift station and funds are budgeted to e e Park Forest Apts. , Phase I SCUOO-oO 1 September 21,2000 Page 3 of 3 accomplish this. The applicant, through a Sewer Service Agreement, should commit to paying for the lift station improvements needed to provide sewer service to his project and be responsible for the on-site improvements needed to serve this project. The City has prepared a plan for providing sewer service to unserved areas of southeast La Porte. The plan calls for a regional lift station to be constructed in the vicinity of McCabe Road and Taylor Bayou. This General Plan should show a 50' x 50' lift station site adjacent to McCabe Road and Taylor Bayou. The dedication of this site may be negotiated in the Sewer Service Agreement. · Drainage - this property lies within the Taylor Bayou watershed. There are not sufficient channel improvements to directly receive storm water runoff from this project. The simplest solution would be for the applicant to provide stonn water detention within his project. Recommendation: Based ,on items discussed under Analysis, staff recommends approval of the General ~lan covering 107 acres and the Special Conditional Use Permit covering 16.2 acres with the following conditions: 1. The overall density of the project (phases 1 and 2) shall not exceed 19.7 dwelling units per acre. 2. The applicant shall enter into Sewer Service Agreement and commit to paying for lift station upgrades related to this development project. 3. This action in no way commits the City to any maintenance responsibilities for the 75.7 acre Conservation Easement. A recommendation from the Commission on this Special Conditional Use Permit will be fOIwarded to City Council for final consideration. If approved by Council, the applicant would be authorized to proceed with submittal of a Major Development Site Plan for Phase One. The Phase Two development as proposed, will require the applicant to request a zone change from the current R-l to PUD and then submit an application for a Special Conditional Use Permit. Approval of Phase 1 in no way demonstrates any level of approval for the future Phase 2. - ! ..:. r ;., i ! r i :- I . ., i ": . :. .Ct.<> !:~i:.~ 5~', ,~~.. Sf ;r.r-kl'I:'t. -- w- ~- " " .
