<br />Planning Commis~lOn, ZC 94-10 <br />August 23, 1994 <br /> <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />~--._--._-_._--_._.______...a..______..______ <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />ANALYSIS <br /> <br />Currently, the property has a land use designation of LI (Light Industrial) <br />and zoning of PUD (Planned Unit Development). The only exceptions to this <br />are the County Government Center, which has a zoning of C2 (Office District) <br />and underlying land use of P (public), as well as the southeast corner of Waco <br />Street and US Highway 10, which has a land use designation of HB <br />(Highway Business). Those properties that currently have a land use <br />designation of LI (Light Industrial) and zoning of PUD (planned Unit <br />Development) can be developed today as a light industrial PUD (planned <br />Unit Development) very similar to a business park. However, under the <br />present circumstances, no commercial uses are' allowed. The adopted <br />Business Park Zoning Ordinance allows for a broad range of uses ranging <br />from light industrial to a mixture of commercial businesses that would <br />compliment the industrial park. In this sense, the Business Park Zoning <br />designation allows for more land use opportunities than the current <br />designation of PUD (planned Unit Development) and land use designation of <br />LI(Light Industrial) zoning. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />The reason to bring this rezoning application forward at this time IS <br />threefold: <br /> <br />".7:.;~' . <br /> <br />.., . <br /> <br />. To implement the business park concept discussed in the 1990 Focus Area <br />Study and adopted by the City Council. <br /> <br />':';::..: <br /> <br />. Rezone those properties that have a underlying land use of LI (Light <br />Industrial) to bring the zoning map into compliance with the land use <br />plan map. <br /> <br />. Establish appropriate zoning designations within the western area in <br />anticipation of the imminent development activity as a result of the <br />current plans to extend City water and sewer into the next phase of the <br />western area. <br /> <br />For the most part, the Planning Commission and City Council have not taken <br />action on rezoning requests that may have an impact on the outcome of the <br />Comprehensive Plan update. However, this request is the last step to <br />implement the long discussed business park concept. <br /> <br />-I,..... <br />"-,... <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />n.,..' <br /> <br />zc94-10.pc <br />
