Cesar Acosta, Neighborhood & Housing Program Manager Cesar Acosta presented the staff report. The Applicant is present and wishes to address the Commission. Alternate McGahey asked what the applicant's options are if this item is turned down. Acosta explained that the applicant will be able to develop as they please since they're in the ETJ, but they would not be allowed on City wastewater. Septic could be utilized, but it would put limitations on their development. Utilizing the City's wastewater services is the primary reason the applicant is requesting annexation. Commissioner Dickey asked how much of the property is currently developed. Acosta established that about 20% of the property is developed. Vince Odine, Applicant, approached the podium to address the Commission and spoke to the history of their company, as well as the current use and encumbrances associated with the property. Odine displayed a potential concept plan for the property, and explained the restricted uses for the site. They are working with the City to comply with the UDC so that they may develop the land and have access to wastewater service. Commissioner Stanley asked if this property will be used as a distribution center. Odine commented that that is a possible option. Alternate McGahey asked what their other use options would be. Odine established that there is an opportunity for indoor manufacturing and metal work, and are open to feedback from the City. Alternate McGahey asked where the TxDOT curb cut will be on the property. Odine established that it would be on the northern side of the property and wrap around to allow access from IH-35 and CR 150. Discussion on SH 195 and IH-35 intersection. Michael Montelongo, Civil Engineer with the Applicant, approached the podium to address the Commission and explained that the deceleration lane off of IH-35 is aimed at relieving traffic backup in the area and would most likely not trigger the need for a Traffic Impact Analysis. Alternate Allen asked if there would be any connection or access to the Walberg Travel Center. Acosta established that since annexation is isolated to this property, there would be no connection. Commissioner Dickey opened the public hearing. Joanie Murray, 321 Prince John Dr., established that she was here with the Applicant and is present to answer any questions the Commission may have. Commissioner Dickey closed the public hearing. Moved by Christopher B Stanley; seconded by Scott A Allen to Approve Item 2.13 as presented. Motion Approved: 5- 1 Voting For: Doug Noble, Christopher B Stanley, Scott A Allen, Mike Tiland, Stephen F Dickey Voting Against: Colin McGahey 2.0 2022-12-ANX - 41 AC Haverland Public Hearing and possible action on a request for a Zoning Map Amendment to rezone 11.4 acres from Agriculture (AG) zoning district to Low -Density Multifamily (MF- 1) zoning district and to zone, upon annexation, 29.177 acres out of the Antonio Flores Survey Abstract No. 235 to the Low Density Multifamily (MF-1) zoning district for the property generally located at the intersection of FM 971 and Haverland Dr. (2022-12- ANX). Cesar Acosta, Neighborhood & Housing Program Manager Cesar Acosta presented the staff report. Alternate Allen asked if the zone was changed to something other than MF-1, if the project would comply with the approval criteria that refers to the Future Land Use Plan. Acosta established that denser, single family unit are most desirable in this area, followed by a neighborhood commercial use. By zoning the entire parcel MF-1, it would be considered entirely residential uses, and the target ratio within the approval criteria would not comply. Discussion on site restrictions in relation to the floodplain. Commissioner Dickey asked how many acres of the parcel are in the floodplain. Acosta established that 13 acres are in the floodplain. Norm Ashby, Applicant, approached the podium to address the Commission and explained that because of the site's restrictions, the only way to achieve the desired density is for the parcel to be zoned MF-1. He is proposing single family detached homes and duplexes for the site, and wishes to go through with straight zoning as opposed to a PUD application. This will be a rental community on a single plat, with access points determined at a later date by Engineering. Commissioner Dickey opened the public hearing_ Eric Van Gorkom, 33 Freddie Dr., approached the podium to address the Commission and commented that understands that the city must grow, and he supports this project as opposed to a denser apartment complex. Van Gorkom believes a single story development will result in less traffic on FM 971 than if an apartment complex went in. Heather Feenel, 33 Freddie Dr., approached the podium to address the Commission and reiterated Eric's comments. Feenel commented that she is concerned about entrance and exit points, but has learned that those determinations come later in the development process. Feenel is in favor of this project. Llorente Navarrette, 229 Bastian Ln., approached the podium to address the Commission and spoke to the history of the area and his time on Georgetown City Council, emphasizing Georgetown's goals of preservation. Navarrette established that he and his neighbors in Katie Crossing want to make sure this project will help preserve Georgetown's neighborhood while still allowing for necessary growth. Carolyn Cummins, 145 Prairie Springs Loop, approached the podium to address the Commission and spoke to the potential traffic and congestion on Weir Road and FM 971 should this project be approved. Lois Robinson, 70 Freddie Dr., approached the podium to address the Commission and reiterated previous comments by her neighbors, noting that she would rather have single family rentals rather than multi -story rental sin the area, and she is supportive of this project. Robinson commented that she does not approve of the entrances to the project, as they do not utilize existing intersections and may result in more traffic. Commissioner Dickey closed the public hearing. Moved by Doug Noble; seconded by Colin McGahey to Approve Item 2.0 as presented.
