Item 24 - Resolution - S2111-0026 - Considering a Request for a Special Sign Permit
to Allow a Double-Sided Digital Face on a Pole Sign - 100 West Airport
Freeway - Advantage Signs, Applicant - Texas Med Properties, Business
Owner - Pacific Nut Company, Owner.
Administrative Comments
1. The applicant is seeking approval of a Special Sign Permit to allow a new 151.2
square foot sign cabinet with a 75.6 square foot digital face (bottom half of the sign)
on each side.
2. The sign is currently located approximately 24 feet from the property line, as
measured from the edge of the sign. A permit for the construction of the original
sign was issued in 2012. The sign is not located within an easement.
3. The building is currently vacant. A building permit application has been made for a
medical office.
4. Chapter 7, Section 7-3.1 of the City of Irving Land Development Code states that
the City Council can approve a Special Sign Permit for an on-premises electronic
sign on any new or lawfully existing sign. Section 7-3 (6)(d) includes requirements
for electronic signs, including the following:
a. No animated, moving video or scrolling elements;
b. Each message is displayed for at least 8 seconds;
c. Change of message shall occur simultaneously on the entire sign face;
d. Freezes the sign in one position if a malfunction occurs;
e. Automatically adjusts display brightness based on light conditions;
f. Brightness does not interfere with drivers’ vision; and
g. The sign can be turned off within 1 hour of a malfunction for traffic safety
5. The business owner’s letter states that the sign “will save lives in our community by
educating the public about the many ways we can service them.” The letter also
states that the sign will not adversely affect public safety, and will follow the rules for
message style, type and transition.
6. Since the proposal enhances the existing sign and is not located near a residential
neighborhood, staff can support the request.
Recommendation
The Resolution be approved.

Item 25 - Ordinance - Zoning Case ZC19-0008 - Considering a Zoning Change from
S-P-1 (C-N) “Detailed Site Plan – Neighborhood Commercial" and ML-20
"Light Industrial" to S-P-2 (ML-20) "Generalized Site Plan – Light
Industrial" and Environmentally Sensitive Land Use - Approximately 2.8
Acres Located at 2232 E. Grauwyler Road - J. Piano Concrete
Construction, Owner/Applicant
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Approval 7-0 including stipulations for fences to be out of the
utility easements, tree planting along the streets, and a required note.
(Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a 2.8-acre tract developed with an existing concrete
manufacturing batch plant. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to S-P-
2 Generalized Site Plan to allow an environmentally sensitive land use and to
legally expand the concrete manufacturing batch plant use.
3. Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map:
a. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
recommends Industrial District uses for this property. This land use category
is described as light to heavy manufacturing. The requested zoning is in
conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
b. The Future Land use in the larger area east of Loop 12 was recently
changed to Industrial to reflect the pattern of redevelopment and the predominant use is industrial. While there are some remaining single
family homes in the area, the area has been shifting toward industrial uses.
4. Section 3.6.1 Environmentally Sensitive Land Use in the Unified Development
Code requires that any uses which have the potential to cause substantial
environmental impacts beyond the boundaries of the property on which the activity
or use is conducted to be permitted only through Site Plan zoning.
5. Section 3.6.5 (attached to this report) requires additional information to be
submitted with the rezoning application for an Environmentally Sensitive Land Use.
Section 3.6.6 (Waiver of Requirements) allows the applicant/owner to request a
waiver of such requirements, if:
a. Full compliance with the application requirements of the section would be
unreasonably burdensome; and
b. The proposed use or activity will not have a substantial impact on the
surrounding area.
The applicant has provided a letter requesting a waiver to the requirements.
Some of the reasons stated are that the use requested is for a concrete operation
called “dry-batch”, that the operation does not produce cement on site but instead
assembles the dry ingredients that will, at another location, be mixed into the wet
cement product and that “this business has been in this location performing exactly
the same operation for 30 years.”
6. Property History.
a. The properties addressed as 1412/1502 on Irene St. have been used for
industrial uses since at least 1989 and received a Certificate of Occupancy
for “yard mix concrete” in 2007 and included an office with truck parking and
outside storage. The applicant was informed in 2008 that the lots needed to
be platted for the business. According to aerial photos, around 2016, the
business appears to have expanded to the north into 1506 Irene, 1510 Irene
and 2232 E. Grauwyler. Staff and the property owner have been unable to
locate any Certificates of Occupancy for these properties.
These properties have been zoned ML-20 since July 15, 1965; a concrete
batch yard has never been a permitted use in the ML-20 district. Additionally,
2232 E. Grauwyler is zoned for S-P-1 (C-N) “Detailed Site Plan –
Neighborhood Commercial” which also does not allow a concrete batch plant
or outdoor storage.
b. Various permits, including fence permits and trade permits, have been
requested in the past for the properties which were not properly zoned for the
batch plant use; zoning is not verified during the consideration for trade
permits. Additionally, driveways were installed without city permits. In 2021,
the applicant began to construct a screening fence around 2232 E.
Grauwyler and fence poles remain on the site.
7. Outside Storage. The site plan notes that the outside storage must be located a
minimum of 10 feet from Peters Road, 15 feet from Grauwyler Road and 15 feet
from Irene Drive. Per code, the outside storage must be screened by a minimum 7-
foot tall blind fence with stacking no taller than 1-foot below top of fence.
8. Screening. The subject property is surrounded on three sides by city streets. The
applicant has previously installed a combination of an 8-ft. tall metal screening
fence and a 7-ft. tall concrete wall around the majority of the property.
a. The site plan indicates the applicant is requesting to install a 10-ft. tall metal
screening fence around the northern portion of the property along
Grauwyler Rd. to shield the operations of the batch plant and the outside
storage from public view. However, Note #8 simply indicates a minimum 7-ft.
tall fence, and the remainder of the property has an 8 ft. tall metal fence.
b. The 10-ft. tall fence is shown on the site plan to be along the property line
of Irene Drive and Peters Road and is set back 15 feet from E. Grauwyler
Road. The proposed fence along Irene Drive is within an existing 15-ft.
wide utility easement, and the proposed fence along Peters Road is within
an existing 10-ft. wide utility easement. No site plan zoning case can
provide a variance that would allow a fence within a utility easement. If this
zoning case is approved, the fences will still be required to be located
outside of the utility easements or the easements need to be abandoned,
and no building permit can be issued unless the fences are located outside
of the easements.
While walls and fences have apparently been permitted within city utility
easements in the past, their location has caused difficulty in using the
easement and/or maintaining utilities within the easement. The Water and
CIP departments have since changed their policy and no longer permit
fences or walls within city utility easements. Furthermore, the dedication
language on the plat specifically prohibits structures from being placed
in public easements.
Similarly, Section 2.7.4 of the UDC of the S-P-2 district states that “No
variances to any other city ordinance, code or regulation will be permitted
within this district”. A standard statement is also included on the site plan to
clarify that the S-P-2 process cannot waive other codes:
Comments made by CIP, TXDOT, Fire, Parks, Planning and the
Water Department staff during the S-P-2 Site Plan approval process
does not waive or vary any city ordinances, codes, or regulations and
that only variances specifically authorized by city ordinances shall be
permitted and shown on the final approved site plan.
Therefore, the screening fences should be located outside of the easements:
10 feet from Peters Road, and 15 feet from E. Grauwyler Road and Irene
Drive. While water and sewer are currently provided in the right-of way and no utilities appear to exist within the easements on Peters Road or Irene
Drive, the easements cannot be encroached upon in case the city needs an
easement for maintenance or future construction. If the applicant prefers to
continue to install the fences in the easements, the easements would need to
complete the abandonment process.
c. Staff believes a uniform height for all metal fencing is preferable.
Accordingly, staff recommends all proposed fencing be 8 feet tall to
match the existing metal fence height.
9. Landscaping.
a. Approval of this site plan would result in landscaping only installed along
Grauwyler Road. Since fences cannot be within utility easements, trees as
approved by the city arborist should be required at a spacing of 1 tree per 30
feet. The applicant proposes six (6) trees being installed along Grauwyler
Road. Tree species and any other landscaping would be determined by the
city arborist, to ensure they are compatible within the utility easement along
Grauwyler Road.
b. The site plan notes that any available landscape areas in front of the
proposed fences and on the subject property shall be landscaped with 2-foot
tall shrubs on 3-foot spacing.
c. The site plan also includes a variance that eliminates any landscaping
requirement behind the fences within the work area.
10. Surface Material. The site plan as submitted provides that the primary surface
material of the business will be compacted gravel base with concrete in the office
and passenger/employee vehicle parking areas.
11. The following use and variances are being proposed:
Required (ML-20) Proposed Staff Recommendation

12. The rezoning case is intended to bring all of the property that includes the entire
business into a legal zoning district which would allow the business to receive a
proper CO for the operation. For these reasons, staff can support this use.
13. A total of 27 public notices were mailed. Staff has received one (1) response in support and none in opposition to this request.
14. The staff recommendation to the P&Z included the below 4 items. The P&Z
recommendation included all of the items except #2, the requirement for the
maximum 8 foot tall metal fence. Staff continues to recommend the 8 ft. fence to
be consistent with the height of the existing adjacent fence.
1. All fences be properly located on the site plan outside of the utility
easements; new fences to be 15 feet from E. Grauwyler Road and Irene
Drive, and 10 feet from Peters Road;
2. The site plan and Note #8 be revised to require an 8-foot maximum tall metal
screening fence on the portion of the site plan labeled “Lot 1, Block B”; and
2. Note #9 be modified to indicate 1 tree per 30 feet along Peters Road and
Irene Drive, as approved by the city arborist
4. Add a note to the site plan regarding a variance for the solid screening wall
within the front yard setback along Peters Road.
A revised site plan was not received from the applicant after the Planning and
Zoning Commission hearing. The site plan attached to the zoning case does not
reflect the changes stated above or that were included as part of the
recommendation.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission including fences outside of the utility easements, trees provided along
streets, and the required note, but also including a maximum 8 foot tall fence.

business appears to have expanded to the north into 1506 Irene, 1510 Irene
and 2232 E. Grauwyler. Staff and the property owner have been unable to
locate any Certificates of Occupancy for these properties.
These properties have been zoned ML-20 since July 15, 1965; a concrete
batch yard has never been a permitted use in the ML-20 district. Additionally,
2232 E. Grauwyler is zoned for S-P-1 (C-N) “Detailed Site Plan –

or outdoor storage.
b. Various permits, including fence permits and trade permits, have been
requested in the past for the properties which were not properly zoned for the

permits. Additionally, driveways were installed without city permits. In 2021,
the applicant began to construct a screening fence around 2232 E.
Grauwyler and fence poles remain on the site.
7. Outside Storage. The site plan notes that the outside storage must be located a
minimum of 10 feet from Peters Road, 15 feet from Grauwyler Road and 15 feet
from Irene Drive. Per code, the outside storage must be screened by a minimum 7-

8. Screening. The subject property is surrounded on three sides by city streets. The
applicant has previously installed a combination of an 8-ft. tall metal screening

a. The site plan indicates the applicant is requesting to install a 10-ft. tall metal
screening fence around the northern portion of the property along
Grauwyler Rd. to shield the operations of the batch plant and the outside
storage from public view. However, Note #8 simply indicates a minimum 7-ft.
tall fence, and the remainder of the property has an 8 ft. tall metal fence.
b. The 10-ft. tall fence is shown on the site plan to be along the property line
of Irene Drive and Peters Road and is set back 15 feet from E. Grauwyler
Road. The proposed fence along Irene Drive is within an existing 15-ft.
wide utility easement, and the proposed fence along Peters Road is within
an existing 10-ft. wide utility easement. No site plan zoning case can
provide a variance that would allow a fence within a utility easement. If this
zoning case is approved, the fences will still be required to be located
outside of the utility easements or the easements need to be abandoned,
and no building permit can be issued unless the fences are located outside

Therefore, the screening fences should be located outside of the easements:
10 feet from Peters Road, and 15 feet from E. Grauwyler Road and Irene
Drive. While water and sewer are currently provided in the right-of way and no utilities appear to exist within the easements on Peters Road or Irene

approved by the city arborist should be required at a spacing of 1 tree per 30
feet. The applicant proposes six (6) trees being installed along Grauwyler
Road. Tree species and any other landscaping would be determined by the
city arborist, to ensure they are compatible within the utility easement along
Grauwyler Road.
b. The site plan notes that any available landscape areas in front of the
proposed fences and on the subject property shall be landscaped with 2-foot
tall shrubs on 3-foot spacing.
c. The site plan also includes a variance that eliminates any landscaping
requirement behind the fences within the work area.
10. Surface Material. The site plan as submitted provides that the primary surface
material of the business will be compacted gravel base with concrete in the office
and passenger/employee vehicle parking areas.
11. The following use and variances are being proposed:

12. The rezoning case is intended to bring all of the property that includes the entire
business into a legal zoning district which would allow the business to receive a
proper CO for the operation. For these reasons, staff can support this use.
13. A total of 27 public notices were mailed. Staff has received one (1) response in support and none in opposition to this request.
14. The staff recommendation to the P&Z included the below 4 items. The P&Z
recommendation included all of the items except #2, the requirement for the
maximum 8 foot tall metal fence. Staff continues to recommend the 8 ft. fence to
be consistent with the height of the existing adjacent fence.
1. All fences be properly located on the site plan outside of the utility
easements; new fences to be 15 feet from E. Grauwyler Road and Irene
Drive, and 10 feet from Peters Road;
2. The site plan and Note #8 be revised to require an 8-foot maximum tall metal
screening fence on the portion of the site plan labeled “Lot 1, Block B”; and
2. Note #9 be modified to indicate 1 tree per 30 feet along Peters Road and
Irene Drive, as approved by the city arborist
4. Add a note to the site plan regarding a variance for the solid screening wall
within the front yard setback along Peters Road.
A revised site plan was not received from the applicant after the Planning and
Zoning Commission hearing. The site plan attached to the zoning case does not
reflect the changes stated above or that were included as part of the
recommendation.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission including fences outside of the utility easements, trees provided along
streets, and the required note, but also including a maximum 8 foot tall fence.

“Neighborhood Commercial" to S-P-2 (R-6) "Generalized Site Plan – Single
Family Residential" - Approximately 1.073 Acres Located at 2206 Rock
Island Road - Guido DFW Estate Investments LLC, Owner/Applicant
(Postponed from December 9, 2021)
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
December 6, 2021 – Postpone to January 3, 2022. January 3, 2022 – Approval
7-0 (Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a vacant 1.073-acre tract. The applicant is requesting a
zoning change from C-N “Neighborhood Commercial” to develop the property with five (5) single family lots and requests a variance to the minimum lot width for two of the proposed lots.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Compact Neighborhood uses for this property. This land use category is
described as predominantly single-family homes with a diverse mix of building
types including small lot cottage homes, clustered courtyard homes, townhomes,
rowhouses, and small-scale apartment buildings. Some mix of non-residential uses
is allowed, especially at intersections and commercial corners. The requested
zoning is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
4. The applicant is proposing a variance to the minimum lot width on the southern
and northern lots, as shown in the table below:
Required Proposed
Minimum Lot Width – Interior Lot
50 feet 43.64 feet
(southern lot only)
Minimum Lot Width – Corner Lot 75 feet 72 feet
The other middle three lots will meet the required minimum lot width of 50 feet. All
lots are in excess of the 6,000 square foot minimum area requirement for the R-6
district.
5. This property will be required to be replatted prior to development. Staff has
advised the applicant that this is required and that the existing sight easement
along Rolston may need to be abandoned prior to replatting the property.
6. The subject property has frontage on Rock Island Road and Rolston Road. The
railroad runs along the north side of Rock Island Road, which is classified as a
Minor Arterial on the Master Thoroughfare Plan. Rolston Road is classified as a
residential street. This section of Rolston is fronted by a church and several
duplexes. Immediately to the south of the subject property is Jimmydee Drive,
which has single family detached homes and, further to the west, townhomes. The
property to the west is single family but is zoned for C-N “Neighborhood
Commercial” uses and could transition to such uses at any time.
7. The Compact Neighborhood future land use designation is intended to provide
for a variety of homes, especially smaller lot homes (cottage homes), duplexes, triplexes,
townhomes and small-scale apartment buildings. The designation also
allows for non-residential uses at intersections and commercial corners.
8. Staff believes this is an ideal site for the existing C-N “Neighborhood Commercial”
zoning. While the existing C-N zoning appears to be appropriate, it is unlikely that
the property will develop with office or retail use in the short term. Additionally,
there are several other residential neighborhoods in this area that side to Rock
Island Road as this development proposes. Considering the need for additional
infill housing, staff can support this request.
9. A total of 26 public notices were mailed. Staff has not received any responses in
support of or in opposition to this request.
10. The case was postponed from the December 6, 2021 hearing due to a necessary
postponement by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The P&Z has made a
recommendation and the case is ready to proceed.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

S-P-1 (R-AB) “Detailed Site Plan – Restaurant with the Attendant
Accessory Use of the Sale of Alcoholic Beverages for On-Premises
Consumption" to S-P-1 (R-AB) “Detailed Site Plan – Restaurant with the
Attendant Accessory Use of the Sale of Alcoholic Beverages for On-
Premises Consumption" and Public Event Center and Outdoor Market
Uses - Approximately 7.55 Acres Located at 101 and 200 North Rogers
Road - AMB Services, Applicant; SJ Irving Property LLC, Owner
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Approval 7-0 (Commissioners Burns and Kliner absent).
2. The subject property consists of two tracts of land on either side of N. Rogers
Road. Tract 1 (101 N. Rogers) is on the west side of N. Rogers Rd. and Tract 2
(200 N. Rogers) is on the east side.
Tract 1 consists of a 51,170-sqaure foot building, a covered parking area, and an
uncovered parking lot. Tract 2 is vacant except for a wireless communication tower
and serves as parking for Tract 1.
3. The applicant is seeking permanent approval for the sale of items that are
beyond the traditional definition of a “Farmer’s Market”, therefore the applicant is
applying to add the use of “Outdoor Market” to the existing S-P-1 (R-AB) zoning.
Additionally, since only accessory retail sales are currently allowed with the S-P-1
(R-AB) zoning, and since some of the market activities will be indoors, limited
indoor retail sales as a principal use are also included on this zoning site plan.
4. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Neighborhood Commercial uses for the east side of this property. This is described
as a mixed-use commercial district along major corridors. Opportunities for residential and commercial infill and reinvestment. The requested zoning is in
conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Commercial Corridor uses for the west side of this property. This is described as
an auto-oriented district for retail, office and commercial uses.
The requested zoning is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
5. Site History:
a. In 2016, the property was rezoned to S-P-1 (R-AB) “Detailed Site Plan –
Restaurant with the Attendant Accessory Use of the Sale of Alcoholic
Beverages for On-Premises Consumption” to allow for the operation of a
restaurant with a related dance hall and event center. The property has
continued to serve as a restaurant with dance hall and provide concerts and
public ticketed events on a regular basis.
b. On April 15, 2021, the City Council approved a Temporary Use Permit for an
outdoor Farmer’s Market to operate on Saturdays and Sundays. The permit
was granted for a 6-month period. Booths and exhibits were limited to 101 N.
Rogers Road, and excess parking was available at 200 N. Rogers Road.
On October 14, 2021 the City Council approved a second Temporary Use
Permit from October 15, 2021 through April 14, 2022. At that time, staff
advised the applicant that if the use was to be continued beyond April 14,
permanent rezoning would be required to permit the use on an ongoing
basis.
6. Additional proposed uses to the existing S-P-1 (R-AB) through this site plan
include:
a. Sale of fresh produce including fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers, herbs, or
plants, processed food stuffs and products such as jams, honey, pickled
products, sauces, baked goods
b. Crafts, art, clothing and other artisanal goods that are designed and/or made
by the seller
c. Seasonal products
d. Advertising and exhibits for personal and business services
e. Any general retail sales (not listed above) that occur during Outdoor Market
days will only be permitted indoors and under the covered parking area.
7. The following uses are expressly prohibited on the site plan:
a. Second-hand or used merchandise
b. The operation of gaming and other amusements, such as a “midway” or
other carnival activities not specifically permitted
c. Any type of outdoor ticketed event or concert
d. The sale or consumption of alcoholic beverages in the outdoor market
8. Notes outlining days of operation of the Outdoor Market have also been included
on the site plan. Staff expressed parking concerns if the event business and
outdoor market operate at the same time. The applicant has explained that the
outdoor market is not intended to operate at the same time since it will be using
parking needed by the event center.
9. The site plan shows areas of the parking lot on Tract 1 that will be used by
vendors, consistent with the Temporary Use permit. The Fire Department has
reviewed the plan; however, no vendors may park or set up within fire lanes at any
time.
10. Parking will be provided from the existing spaces on the lots on both sides of N.
Rogers Rd. The restaurant requires 260 spaces and the event center and outdoor
market require 350 spaces. A total of 610 spaces is required and 612 are
provided.
11. Approximately 9,200 square feet within the existing building is identified for the
sale of general retail sales that cannot be categorized under the Outdoor Market
uses. The owner understands that he will need to bring this portion of the
building up to current Fire Code requirements before it can be occupied for
this use.
12. This proposed zoning case meets the alcohol distance requirement regulations
from a religious facility, school, or hospital as required in Section 3.3 of the Unified
Development Code.
13. The Farmers’ Market has been operating successfully on a temporary basis and
has allowed for a complimentary use of the property during the off hours of the
events within the indoor restaurant and event center. It has brought retail activity to
the site, which was a desire of the Future Land Use Plan’s Neighborhood and
Community Commercial designations for the property. Since the proposed use will
continue to bring retail activity to the site as an Outdoor Market that is more in
conformance with the goals of the master plan and long-term vision of this area,
staff can support this request.
14. A total of 19 public notices were mailed. Staff has received one (1) response in
support and none in opposition to this request.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Denial 5-2 (Commissioners McPhail and Collins, nay;
Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is an approximately 2.982-acre site that is currently
undeveloped. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to construct a new
dual-branded hotel with alcoholic beverage sales and variances to the hotel
development standards. The hotel is oriented so that the back of the building
faces State Highway 114 with a series of patios, and the front primary entry faces
the parking garage on the adjacent property.
3. The current Hotel Development Standards are codified as Section 3.10 of the
Unified Development Code (UDC). The Irving Convention and Visitors Bureau
(ICVB) and City Planning staff have made several recommendations for changes to
these standards. The ICVB was asked by Council to survey the hotel operators; this
was delayed due to the pandemic and was completed in May 2021 and the results
were reflected in the proposed ordinance amendments. While these changes have
not been adopted by the Council, they have been used to evaluate the
appropriateness of certain requested variances to the current hotel standards.
4. The site plan proposes a 5-story, 220 room dual brand hotel with a full-service
restaurant, meeting space, a fitness center and pool, and other amenities. This
includes a 112-room “Residence Inn by Marriott” and a 108-room “Courtyard by
Marriott”.

6. Room Count. The current hotel development standards (Section 3.10.2 (d)(7))
simply require that “All hotels and motels shall provide a minimum of 200 sleeping
rooms”. Since the two hotels are within one permanent structure and share an entry
feature and amenities, the total room count is being considered for purposes of
compliance with this section.
7. Height. The Hotel Development Standards do not currently have a minimum height
requirement. The proposed amendments do not propose a minimum height outside
of the Urban Center.
8. Parking. The most notable variance requested is for the total of required on-site
parking spaces. Per Section 3.10.2 (b)(5) of the UDC, a total of 307 parking spaces
are required based on the current ordinance.
Amendments to the Hotel Regulations have been in process since 2019 and were
delayed due to the pandemic but are being processed for a Spring 2022 approval.
Included in the amendments is an allowed reduction of parking to 0.7 spaces per
room. This has been supported for multiple hotel cases where the parking was
provided on the site, and this reduction is supported for this case.
a. With an approved variance, a total of 169 spaces will be required for the rooms
and meeting space. The applicant is providing 88 spaces within the lot with the
hotel building. This is 81 spaces short of the required parking.
b. The applicant indicates that they will enter into a parking agreement with the
owner of the parking garage associated with an office building on a separate
property to the south (to be recorded with the county) for the additional 81
required spaces. A parking agreement cannot be required as a condition of the
zoning case.
c. The adjacent parking garage has 77 existing surplus parking spaces beyond the
minimum requirements for the office building. The applicant has stated that the
parking agreement will designate these excess parking spaces (above the
minimum required for the adjacent office building) specifically for hotel use,
providing a total of 165 spaces for the hotel. Section 4.4.6 (a) of the UDC allows
such excess spaces to be counted since they are within 300 feet of the hotel
property.
d. The UDC also allows for shared parking, which would account for the remaining
four (4) spaces needed to reach 169 spaces. The applicant has provided a
parking study that concludes that the parking garage on the adjacent lot has an
abundant off-peak surplus of spaces after 5:00 p.m., which is when the need for
the hotel parking increases. The hotel will also be providing a shuttle service to
area airports.
9. Staff’s recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission was for Denial
based on the large request for a variance to the on-site parking. After the P&Z
hearing, staff discussed the case further and determined that the reduced parking
amount (0.7 spaces per room) should be supported to be consistent with other hotel
cases, and that considerations in Section 4.4.3d for shared parking can also apply
to offsite parking. The allowance of the shared parking adds the needed four
spaces necessary to comply with the reduced amount of parking of 169 spaces, if
approved as a variance. Therefore, the staff recommendation has been
changed from Denial to Approval.
The parking agreement for any necessary off-site spaces to reach a minimum of
169 is not part of this zoning case; a recorded document must be included in the
application for a building permit to show compliance with the parking requirement
set in this Site Plan case.
10. Concerns remain about several items. While staff believes it is important to
encourage infill commercial development, the subject site is very small and not an
ideal configuration to accommodate the proposed hotel. Staff has asked the
applicant to consider construction of a level or two of structured parking spaces
under the 5 stories of hotel to provide more parking on-site.
The parking variances/reductions approved for other hotels have been on the same
site as the hotel development. However, no hotel has requested to provide the
required parking spaces on another property or via the shared parking
consideration.
The parking agreement is a private document; the city is not a party to nor will
enforce the agreement. Should the office building’s parking needs ever change and
the agreement voided or altered that reduces the total number of available parking
spaces dedicated to the hotel use, the hotel would be in violation of zoning with
potential enforcement as necessary.
Finally, while the parking garage is on an adjacent lot and within 300 feet as
allowed by the ordinance, it is separated by a driveway and will be connect by one
crosswalk. The applicant stated that parking spaces will not be dedicated or marked
within the garage for use by the hotel and the garage will be card access only. Staff
also retains concerns about the actual usage of the garage by hotel guests and
potential for on-street parking on Brim Street; the applicant indicates that the hotel
management will provide the guests guidance on proper parking locations.
10. A total of 8 public notices were mailed. Staff has received three (3) responses in
support and none in opposition to this request.
Recommendation
The ordinance be approved with a minimum of 169 required parking spaces

Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Denial 5-2 (Commissioners McPhail and Collins, nay;
Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is an approximately 2.982-acre site that is currently
undeveloped. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to construct a new
dual-branded hotel with alcoholic beverage sales and variances to the hotel
development standards. The hotel is oriented so that the back of the building
faces State Highway 114 with a series of patios, and the front primary entry faces
the parking garage on the adjacent property.
3. The current Hotel Development Standards are codified as Section 3.10 of the
Unified Development Code (UDC). The Irving Convention and Visitors Bureau
(ICVB) and City Planning staff have made several recommendations for changes to
these standards. The ICVB was asked by Council to survey the hotel operators; this
was delayed due to the pandemic and was completed in May 2021 and the results
were reflected in the proposed ordinance amendments. While these changes have
not been adopted by the Council, they have been used to evaluate the
appropriateness of certain requested variances to the current hotel standards.
4. The site plan proposes a 5-story, 220 room dual brand hotel with a full-service
restaurant, meeting space, a fitness center and pool, and other amenities. This
includes a 112-room “Residence Inn by Marriott” and a 108-room “Courtyard by
Marriott”.

6. Room Count. The current hotel development standards (Section 3.10.2 (d)(7))
simply require that “All hotels and motels shall provide a minimum of 200 sleeping
rooms”. Since the two hotels are within one permanent structure and share an entry
feature and amenities, the total room count is being considered for purposes of
compliance with this section.
7. Height. The Hotel Development Standards do not currently have a minimum height
requirement. The proposed amendments do not propose a minimum height outside
of the Urban Center.
8. Parking. The most notable variance requested is for the total of required on-site
parking spaces. Per Section 3.10.2 (b)(5) of the UDC, a total of 307 parking spaces
are required based on the current ordinance.
Amendments to the Hotel Regulations have been in process since 2019 and were
delayed due to the pandemic but are being processed for a Spring 2022 approval.
Included in the amendments is an allowed reduction of parking to 0.7 spaces per
room. This has been supported for multiple hotel cases where the parking was
provided on the site, and this reduction is supported for this case.
a. With an approved variance, a total of 169 spaces will be required for the rooms
and meeting space. The applicant is providing 88 spaces within the lot with the
hotel building. This is 81 spaces short of the required parking.
b. The applicant indicates that they will enter into a parking agreement with the
owner of the parking garage associated with an office building on a separate
property to the south (to be recorded with the county) for the additional 81
required spaces. A parking agreement cannot be required as a condition of the
zoning case.
c. The adjacent parking garage has 77 existing surplus parking spaces beyond the
minimum requirements for the office building. The applicant has stated that the
parking agreement will designate these excess parking spaces (above the
minimum required for the adjacent office building) specifically for hotel use,
providing a total of 165 spaces for the hotel. Section 4.4.6 (a) of the UDC allows
such excess spaces to be counted since they are within 300 feet of the hotel
property.
d. The UDC also allows for shared parking, which would account for the remaining
four (4) spaces needed to reach 169 spaces. The applicant has provided a
parking study that concludes that the parking garage on the adjacent lot has an
abundant off-peak surplus of spaces after 5:00 p.m., which is when the need for
the hotel parking increases. The hotel will also be providing a shuttle service to
area airports.
9. Staff’s recommendation to the Planning and Zoning Commission was for Denial
based on the large request for a variance to the on-site parking. After the P&Z
hearing, staff discussed the case further and determined that the reduced parking
amount (0.7 spaces per room) should be supported to be consistent with other hotel
cases, and that considerations in Section 4.4.3d for shared parking can also apply
to offsite parking. The allowance of the shared parking adds the needed four
spaces necessary to comply with the reduced amount of parking of 169 spaces, if
approved as a variance. Therefore, the staff recommendation has been
changed from Denial to Approval.
The parking agreement for any necessary off-site spaces to reach a minimum of
169 is not part of this zoning case; a recorded document must be included in the
application for a building permit to show compliance with the parking requirement
set in this Site Plan case.
10. Concerns remain about several items. While staff believes it is important to
encourage infill commercial development, the subject site is very small and not an
ideal configuration to accommodate the proposed hotel. Staff has asked the
applicant to consider construction of a level or two of structured parking spaces
under the 5 stories of hotel to provide more parking on-site.
The parking variances/reductions approved for other hotels have been on the same
site as the hotel development. However, no hotel has requested to provide the
required parking spaces on another property or via the shared parking
consideration.
The parking agreement is a private document; the city is not a party to nor will
enforce the agreement. Should the office building’s parking needs ever change and
the agreement voided or altered that reduces the total number of available parking
spaces dedicated to the hotel use, the hotel would be in violation of zoning with
potential enforcement as necessary.
Finally, while the parking garage is on an adjacent lot and within 300 feet as
allowed by the ordinance, it is separated by a driveway and will be connect by one
crosswalk. The applicant stated that parking spaces will not be dedicated or marked
within the garage for use by the hotel and the garage will be card access only. Staff
also retains concerns about the actual usage of the garage by hotel guests and
potential for on-street parking on Brim Street; the applicant indicates that the hotel
management will provide the guests guidance on proper parking locations.
10. A total of 8 public notices were mailed. Staff has received three (3) responses in
support and none in opposition to this request.

The ordinance be approved with a minimum of 169 required parking spaces

(Postponed from December 9, 2021)
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
December 6, 2021 – Approval 7-0 (Commissioners Joy and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a 5.75-acre tract partially developed with an existing large
box retail shopping center. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to
redevelop the property with a plant nursery to include outside display, sales
and storage of plants and related items with a reduction to the required
parking.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Commercial Corridor uses for this property. This land use category is described
as an auto-oriented district for retail, office and commercial uses. Parking in front
with buildings set back from the street. Low to mid-rise buildings. The requested
zoning is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
4. The applicant is proposing to renovate a 35,000 square foot portion of the existing
building (former Conn’s HomePlus) for the nursery and add an 18,000 square foot
greenhouse on the west side of the building. The northern 69,000 sq. ft. portion of
the site will be used for a “lath house” (open structure similar to a large pergola),
outside display, sales and storage of plants and nursery related items.
5. The applicant is proposing to add the following uses:
Land Use C-C Requirements Proposed
C-C No Outside Display, Sales or
Storage
Outside Display, Sales, and Storage of
plant nursery and related items
6. The City’s parking requirement for all retail (indoor and outdoor) is 1 space per 200
square feet. Based on the applicant’s plans, this would require 610 parking spaces.
The applicant is proposing a variance to the parking requirement for the
greenhouse and outdoor sales area. Based on the proposed development, the
applicant would provide 259 parking spaces, a 57.4% reduction.

The applicant has provided a parking analysis for the proposed reduction. Based
on parking at their similarly designed stores, the study concludes that the parking
variance is warranted, as the parking ratio per square foot (including outdoor and
indoor spaces) is 1 space per 471 square feet, whereas 5 similar stores have an
average parking ratio of 1 space per 574 square feet. Staff concurs with the
proposed parking variance, based on the parking analysis and the nature of the
business.
7. The general area includes big box retail stores with large parking lots. A crossaccess
and cross-parking agreement exists for the entire shopping center, allowing
overflow parking on adjacent property when necessary. No residential property is
in the area that would be impacted by any overflow parking.
8. Since the proposed use is compatible with the other surrounding retail uses, and
since the parking variance is reasonable given the nature of the proposed use and
the experience of the applicant at other store locations, staff can support this
request.
9. A total of 3 public notices were mailed. Staff has received one (1) response in
support and none in opposition to this request.
10. The case was postponed from the December 6, 2021 hearing for further
communications with the property owner. The case is ready to proceed.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Item 30 - Ordinance - Comprehensive Plan Amendment CP21-0004 - Considering a
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Changing the Recommended Future
Land Use from "Neighborhood Commercial" to "Commercial Corridor" -
Approximately 2.998 Acres Located at 2000 Estrada Parkway - JMR
Properties, Inc., Applicant; MSR Los Lupes Enterprises, Inc., Owner
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Approval 6-0 (Commissioner Cronenwett, not voting;
Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. This case is in conjunction with Zoning Case ZC21-0071, also on this agenda.
3. The applicant is seeking to amend the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map
from “Neighborhood Commercial” to “Commercial Corridor” to facilitate a zoning
change.
4. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Neighborhood Commercial uses. Neighborhood Commercial is described as
“Mixed-use commercial areas along major corridors. Opportunities for residential
and commercial infill and reinvestment.”
5. In conjunction with the related rezoning request, the applicant proposes
Commercial Corridor uses for this property. This land use category is described
as an “auto-oriented district for retail, office and commercial uses” with “parking in
front with buildings set back from the street” and “low- to mid-rise buildings”.
6. The Future Land Use Map Interpretation Policies under Goal 1 of the Land Use +
Urban Design Section of the 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan requires
that, if an area that is designated and/or developed as non-residential use
desires to transition to a different non-residential use, the City of Irving should
require the following:
a. If new construction, the development conforms to new use standards and
concepts.
b. The area meets all compatibility standards for adjacent uses.
c. The rezoning does not cause any negative impacts on adjacent uses.
The applicant has provided a letter of justification for the requested amendment that
states the proposed use meets all compatibility standards and conforms to new use
standards since they are not requesting any variances as part of the corresponding
zoning case for C-C “Community Commercial” district. The applicant states that no
negative impacts on neighboring property will result from this change in the Future
Land Use.
7. The “Vision Map” in the Comprehensive Plan denotes this property as part of a
“Major Center” in the general vicinity of the Irving Mall located at the intersection of
Highway 183 and N. Belt Line Road (Figure 14, Page 58). As described in the
Comprehensive Plan, major centers are “iconic Irving landmarks, districts, and
destinations that serve the entire region as concentrations of commerce,
employment, and activity”.
8. The Comprehensive Plan encourages infill development at appropriate locations.
The vicinity of the proposed development is not designated as an “Area of Stability”
in the Comprehensive Plan (Figure 15, page 60). As such, this is an area where
“opportunities exist on underutilized land that could be developed or redeveloped to
provide additional high-quality housing and employment areas” (page 59). Thus,
this development is in accordance with this section of the Comprehensive Plan.
9. Furthermore, the property is located on Estrada Parkway, which is defined as a
Minor Collector on the Master Throughfare Plan. Aside from the business
requesting this amendment, Estrada Parkway provides local access to seven
apartment complexes, a hotel, a restaurant, and a Walmart.
10. Finally, the property is within 600 feet from State Highway 183 which is an
appropriate distance for larger commercial activity, and much of the existing activity
such as auto sales and Walmart are designed to draw from an area larger than a
neighborhood. As such, staff intends to examine this surrounding area in 2022 to
review the most appropriate future land use designation for these and similar
properties.
11. A companion zoning case, ZC21-0071, was filed for this case to allow for event
center and retail uses.
12. Given all the factors listed above, staff can support this Comprehensive Plan
amendment.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Approval 6-0 (Commissioner Cronenwett, not voting;
Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a 2.998-acre portion of a vacant lot that has been partially
paved for parking. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to allow for event
center and retail uses. The event center is intended to be rented out for private
party uses.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Neighborhood Commercial uses. A companion Comprehensive Plan
Amendment CP21-0004 on this agenda would amend the Future Land Use Map to
recommend Commercial Corridor uses. This case was filed the uses under the
proposed C-C “Community Commercial” District are not compatible with the
current future land use designation of “Neighborhood Commercial”. While the
applicant was given the option to rezone the property to C-N “Neighborhood
Commercial”, they declined because the maximum height in the C-N
“Neighborhood Commercial” district is 2.5 stories or 30 feet, and the C-C
“Community Commercial” district has no such height requirement.
4. Site History:
a. The applicant applied for a six-month temporary use permit to allow outside
storage on March 3, 2021. The applicant noted they sought to store
restaurant and banquet hall equipment in trailers on the existing parking lot
of the property. Per Council Resolution No. 2021-222, this permit was
approved by City Council on June 17, 2021, and recently expired on
December 16, 2021. The applicant applied for a secondary temporary use
permit on November 18, 2021 for the same use. This case is scheduled for
the January 13, 2022 City Council meeting.
b. The lot where this subject property is located was sold without benefit of plat
sometime between 2019 and 2020. The applicant has been made aware
that, in accordance with state law, the property cannot be developed unless
both portions of the lot (Lot 2 and Lot 2.1) have been legally replatted. Both
property owners will have to participate in the replat by co-signing the
application and the plat. Neither portion will receive a building permit until the
replat has occurred.
5. The property was rezoned from S-P-2 (FWY) “Generalized Site Plan – Freeway
and Retail, Automobile Rental, and Two-Story Mini-Storage Units” to S-P-2 (C-OU-
2) “Generalized Site Plan - Commercial Outdoor 2” uses in 1994 to allow for an
expansion of the auto sales facility on the west side of Estrada. While the existing
parking lot was added between 1994 and 2000, the property has never been
developed.
6. The subject property is not located near any single family residential uses but is
adjacent to multifamily uses. Per Section 4.6.1 of the Unified Development Code,
the commercial property is responsible for providing and maintaining a minimum 7-
foot tall blind fence or wall along the common property line with the multifamily
property.
7. The property will have to comply with all zoning, parking, and landscaping
regulations, as well as all other City of Irving ordinances.
8. Since the applicant is not requesting any variances, and, with the
amendment to the future land uses, the C-C district is appropriate and serves
as a buffer between the multifamily uses to the south and the freewayoriented
businesses to the north, staff can support this request.
9. A total of 11 public notices were mailed. Staff has not received any responses in
support of or in opposition to this request.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a 2.998-acre portion of a vacant lot that has been partially
paved for parking. The applicant is requesting a zoning change to allow for event
center and retail uses. The event center is intended to be rented out for private
party uses.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Neighborhood Commercial uses. A companion Comprehensive Plan
Amendment CP21-0004 on this agenda would amend the Future Land Use Map to
recommend Commercial Corridor uses. This case was filed the uses under the
proposed C-C “Community Commercial” District are not compatible with the
current future land use designation of “Neighborhood Commercial”. While the
applicant was given the option to rezone the property to C-N “Neighborhood
Commercial”, they declined because the maximum height in the C-N
“Neighborhood Commercial” district is 2.5 stories or 30 feet, and the C-C
“Community Commercial” district has no such height requirement.
4. Site History:
a. The applicant applied for a six-month temporary use permit to allow outside
storage on March 3, 2021. The applicant noted they sought to store
restaurant and banquet hall equipment in trailers on the existing parking lot
of the property. Per Council Resolution No. 2021-222, this permit was
approved by City Council on June 17, 2021, and recently expired on
December 16, 2021. The applicant applied for a secondary temporary use
permit on November 18, 2021 for the same use. This case is scheduled for
the January 13, 2022 City Council meeting.
b. The lot where this subject property is located was sold without benefit of plat
sometime between 2019 and 2020. The applicant has been made aware
that, in accordance with state law, the property cannot be developed unless
both portions of the lot (Lot 2 and Lot 2.1) have been legally replatted. Both
property owners will have to participate in the replat by co-signing the
application and the plat. Neither portion will receive a building permit until the
replat has occurred.
5. The property was rezoned from S-P-2 (FWY) “Generalized Site Plan – Freeway
and Retail, Automobile Rental, and Two-Story Mini-Storage Units” to S-P-2 (C-OU-
2) “Generalized Site Plan - Commercial Outdoor 2” uses in 1994 to allow for an
expansion of the auto sales facility on the west side of Estrada. While the existing
parking lot was added between 1994 and 2000, the property has never been
developed.
6. The subject property is not located near any single family residential uses but is
adjacent to multifamily uses. Per Section 4.6.1 of the Unified Development Code,
the commercial property is responsible for providing and maintaining a minimum 7-
foot tall blind fence or wall along the common property line with the multifamily
property.
7. The property will have to comply with all zoning, parking, and landscaping
regulations, as well as all other City of Irving ordinances.
8. Since the applicant is not requesting any variances, and, with the
amendment to the future land uses, the C-C district is appropriate and serves
as a buffer between the multifamily uses to the south and the freewayoriented
businesses to the north, staff can support this request.
9. A total of 11 public notices were mailed. Staff has not received any responses in
support of or in opposition to this request.
Recommendation
The ordinance be adopted per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.

Item 32 - Ordinance - ZC21-0075 - Considering a Zoning Change from R-7.5 "Single
Family Residential" to S-P-2 (R-7.5) "Generalized Site Plan – Single Family
Residential" - Approximately 0.24 Acres Located at 2419 West 5th Street -
Adriana and Cesar Figueroa, Owners/Applicants
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission Hearing Date and Recommendation:
January 3, 2022 – Denial 4-3 (Commissioners Spurlock, McPhail and Collins, nay;
Commissioners Burns and Kliner, absent).
2. The subject property is a 10,285 square foot lot that is currently developed with a
single-family home and a detached accessory building. The applicant is
proposing to rezone for variances to permit: 1) a detached accessory
building to be expanded and used as a second dwelling unit, and 2) a
detached accessory building to exceed 25% of the square footage of the
main building.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Residential Neighborhood uses for this property. This land use category is
described as predominantly single-family homes or duplexes with some mix of
non-residential uses, particularly in-home businesses. The requested zoning is in
conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
4. A building permit had been issued for a 16’x16’ shed in 2016. In November 2021,
the City received a complaint that a structure in the rear yard of the subject
property had been converted to living quarters. Upon inspection by Code
Enforcement, it was discovered that the structure had been altered to have a full
kitchen, a full bathroom, a closet, and living/sleeping quarters. Electricity and
plumbing to the structure were connected from the main residence through a
series of pipes and extension cords.
5. The Unified Development Code (UDC) currently does not permit accessory
structures to be used for dwelling purposes. The property owner was issued a
zoning violation and informed that they must file permits to correct the violation
unless they could get approval of a variance. Otherwise, an accessory building
that is not used for dwelling purposes requires that the stove in the kitchen, the
shower in the bathroom, and the closet must all be removed.
6. The owner initially agreed to cease using the structure and obtain permits
necessary to convert it back to an accessory building. Permits were issued by
Inspections in November for the removal of the closet, the shower, and the built-in
stove/oven. However, before the owner removed everything, they wanted to go
through the zoning process to see if they could obtain approval to have the
structure remain as secondary living quarters.
7. Per Chapter 9 of the UDC, “dwelling accommodations” shall mean any of the
following improvements within an accessory building in a residential district:
a. A kitchen, being defined as an area that includes a dishwasher, oven, stove,
or range, excluding a non-built-in microwave oven;
b. Indoor bathtub or shower facilities, excluding exterior shower facilities
associated with a swimming pool;
c. Built-in heating, ventilation, or air conditioning system, excluding window air
conditioning units and portable space heaters;
d. Natural gas service;
e. More than two (2) rooms in the building, however a separately enclosed area
with only a toilet and sink will not be counted as a room; or
f. A closet in any room
8. The existing structure currently includes (a), (b), and (f) from the above list.
9. In addition to keeping the structure as secondary living quarters, the applicant
wants to nearly double the size of the structure, expanding it from 264
square feet to 480 square feet. This expanded structure would have one
bedroom, a bathroom, and kitchenette. The applicant requests that the building
include cooking facilities including connections for a cooktop and oven. The
expanded part of the building measures 12 feet in height to the peak of the roof
and meets the setbacks from the side and rear property lines.
10. Section 3.1.6 (a) of the Unified Development Code requires detached accessory
structures to be a maximum size of 250 square feet or 25% of the square footage
of the main structure, whichever is larger. The main home is approximately 1,220
square feet and 25% would equal a maximum 305 square foot accessory building.
The proposed expansion would be a 57% increase in square footage over
what is permitted.
11. The requested variances are summarized below:
Category Required Proposed Variance
Max. size of accessory
structure
305 sq. ft.
maximum
(25% of main
house)
480 sq. ft. +175 sq. ft.
(57%)

accommodation
Used as a dwelling
accommodation,
including items (a)
kitchen including oven
and cooktop, (b) indoor
shower, (e) more than 2
rooms; and (f) a closet
N/A
12. Staff asked about the intended future use of the building, and the owner maintains
that the accessory structure has been used to house family members and will continue to be used for additional family who may need it. The owner also
maintains that the existing driveway is adequate to handle the parking of four (4)
vehicles. The driveway appears to be approximately 78 feet in length, which could
accommodate about four (4) vehicles if parked in a parallel fashion.
13. Since the structure was altered without permits, if this request is not approved,
the owner will have to go forward with the changes to remove the oven from
the kitchen, the shower in the bathroom, and the closet. The structure could
not be legally used as a bedroom under those conditions.
14. A total of 31 public notices were mailed. Staff has not received any responses in
support of or in opposition to this request.
Recommendation
The ordinance be denied per the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
