AO. Public Hearing and First Reading of an Ordinance on a request for a Zoning Map Amendment
to rezone a 12.695 acre tract and 2.010 acre tract known as parts of Lot 1 of the McCoy School
Subdivision, from the Residential Single -Family (RS) zoning district to a Planned Unit
Development with the General Commercial (C-3) and High -Density Multi -Family (MF-2)
base zoning districts, for the property generally located at Williams Drive and Rivery
Boulevard (2021-12-PUD) -- Sofia Nelson, Planning Director
Nelson presented the proposed development which would be where the previous McCoy
Elementary school was located on Williams Drive. Nelson read the Policy direction for the
Williams Drive Gateway Ordinance. She also reviewed the Future Land Use Plan. The
proposal is that the project include three areas, with Area C being a multi -family component.
The deviations from the UDC and the proposed PUD standards were shown in the
presentation and will be adopted with the PUD..
Nelson read the ordinance caption.
Council did not have any questions for staff. The developer, Carter Perrin with Partners
Development and Julie Ward, Sr. VP of Partners Capital Development made the presentation.
Parr asked Ward about the 10% reduction in parking. She explained that the residential multi-
family section was not reduced and since this is a pedestrian friendly area, they felt that the
reduction would give a good tenant mix. Parr asked why they needed the extra height for
the multi -family. Ward stated they needed it for the density of the fourth floor. And most
were between 45 and 55 feet, but some would be 60 feet, more towards the middle of the site.
Parr asked about possible tenants. They responded that they cannot state who would be
moving in but they are looking at a higher level destination site.
Pitts asked what is being approved with this. Nelson says the one in the packet is the one to
approve tonight. And changes would be made between first and second reading. Hood
asked about the commercial space for the one along Williams — 35 feet.
General discussion among Council and staff regarding similar uses nearby.
Mayor Schroeder opened and closed the public hearing at 7:06: p.m. as there were no
speakers.
Motion by Hood to approve the item as presented, second by Triggs. Hood also expressed
appreciation for the design and the catalyst for this area as it's a corridor and he supports the
development. Stewart whole heartedly approves this project. As does Garland. And Triggs
is glad to see this. Pitts thinks this can be a catalyst for changing this corridor and making
Williams Drive so much better. Mayor is very glad to see this happening now and meeting
the council's vision of the site.

AP. Public Hearing and First Reading of an Ordinance on a request for a Special Use Permit (SUP)
for the Fuel Sales Use in the Local Commercial (C-1) zoning district on the property located
at 1910 NE Inner Loop, bearing the legal description of Lot 2, Amended Plat of Katy School
Subdivision (2022-6-SUP) -- Travis Baird, Assistant Planning Director - Current Planning
Baird presented the item, showing the location and surrounding zoning. The proposal is for
fuel sales and a concept plan was presented. Additional restrictions can be placed above and
beyond the existing code restrictions for fuel sales. This project partially complies with the
comprehensive plan. And it provides commercial services along the scenic corridor, but this
service station would also serve a larger population than the immediate neighborhoods.
Baird read the ordinance caption.
General discussion among Council and staff. French asked which direction the building
would face. Baird showed different options and which one was chosen, to meet the code and
minimize the back of the building view from the view corridor. There was general discussion
about the location of the building and use of the other structure.
Mayor Schroeder opened and closed the public hearing at 7:37: p.m. as there were no
speakers.
Motion by French to deny the item as presented, second by Parr. French explained he does
not feel this fits the scenic corridor and read the definition and description. And this does not
