staycation and regional event-driven messaging.
7. The final advertising schedule will be determined based on proposals submitted and
the evaluation of these, to select those that best address the primary objectives of
the 2022-23 ICVB Marketing Plan. Budgeting is done on a fiscal year basis;
however, the media schedule primarily is placed on a calendar year with funds
encumbered as commitments are made, and thus crossing fiscal years.
8. Past ICVB advertising conversion studies reported the following impacts and return
on investment: for each $1 the ICVB spent on advertising, $31 was spent by
travelers in Irving businesses. (Irving Conversion Study, Smart Business, 2000.)

Economic Value and/or direct hotel referrals.

15 Resolution - Approving Expenditure with Axon Enterprise, Inc., in the
Amount of $186,120.00 for the Criminal Investigations Interview Room
Audio Video System.
Administrative Comments
1. This item is recommended by the Information Technology Department and the
Police Department. It supports Strategic Objective 4.2: Leverage information
technology to drive efficient and responsive service delivery.
2. Impact: The police department currently has nine interview rooms with an audiovisual recording system in need of replacement. These rooms are located at the
Criminal Justice Center and the Family Advocacy Center. The current system is
outdated and has shown to be increasingly difficult to troubleshoot and repair. It
also does not interface with Evidence.com.
3. The police department has a current contract with Axon Enterprise, Inc. allowing for
the capture of audio video evidence to include automatic uploading to their
evidence data management system. Evidence.com is the interface utilized to share
case file information with the Dallas County Court System. This is important
because the current system requires our investigators to download the interview
evidence to their desktop and then upload into Evidence.com. This process creates
choke points where we have lost evidence due to corrupt hard drives and other
factors in the process. Waiting for large files to download and or upload also creates
time management issues related to administrative duties which takes away from
investigating criminal offenses.
4. An RFI for this project was completed in January 2022. This project specifically
stated, “Consideration should be given to interface abilities with other systems such
as evidence.com.” Axon Enterprise, Inc. is the single source provider with direct
interface abilities with evidence.com making them the best choice for this project.
Furthermore, our existing relationship with Axon contributed to an ability to
negotiate a lower price from the original quote submitted during the RFI process.
5. Funding of this item has been requested from the American Rescue Plan Act
(ARPA) funds received by the City; the City’s ARPA team has reviewed this request
and recommends the use of ARPA funds for this expenditure.
6. Funding in the amount of $186,120.00 is available within the American Rescue
Plan Act (ARPA) Fund.
Recommendation
The resolution be approved.

Item 39

39 Ordinance - ZC22-0035 - Considering a Zoning Change from R-6 "SingleFamily Residential 6" to S-P-2 (R-6) "Generalized Site Plan - Single-Family
Residential 6" Establishing the Minimum Front Yard Setback at 170 Feet -
Approximately 0.45 Acres Located at 1118 Alexander Street - Felix Wong,
Applicant; Syed Quadri, Owner
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation: Pending (November 7,
2022 meeting).
2. The subject property is a 0.45-acre undeveloped lot. The applicant is requesting
to establish the minimum front yard setback at 170 feet in an R-6 “Singlefamily Residential 6” district.
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 or duplexes with some mix of nonresidential uses, particularly in-home businesses. The requested zoning is in
conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
Background
4. The subject property was replatted in June 2000. It was originally part of a larger lot
that was subdivided into three (3) smaller lots, all with frontage on Alexander St. The lot in question was replatted as a “flag lot” between the other two (2) lots, with
only 34.25 feet of street frontage.
5. The subject property was illegally subdivided in 2003 by previous ownership.
In 2003, a portion of Lot 1 was illegally incorporated into Lot 3 of the Soto Addition.
Regardless of the outcome of this zoning case, both the subject property (1118
Alexander Street) and 1116 Alexander Street will both need to be replatted
prior to any additional development on either property.
Zoning Analysis
6. Lot width is defined in the Unified Development Code as being the distance
between the side property lines measured “at the minimum front building line
required by the zoning of that lot.”
7. The applicant is proposing to develop the property with one (1) single family
residence. As stated above, the lot already has a “flag” configuration that is no
longer permitted by right in the City. Because flag portion of the lot only has 34.25
feet of frontage, the owner needs to establish the minimum front yard setback at a
point where the lot width meets the minimum width requirement of 50 feet.
8. Once the front yard setback line is established at 170 feet, the lot width will be
compliant and the lot can be properly replatted.
9. The applicant requests the following:
10.All other R-6 “Single-family Residential 6” district requirements will be met.
11.A total of 35 public notices were mailed. Staff has not received any responses in
support or in opposition.
Staff Recommendation
Staff has no objection to this request

Item 40

40 Ordinance - ZC22-0062/AD22-0004 - Considering a Zoning Change from CN "Neighborhood Commercial" 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" with a Variance to the 300-Foot
Distance Separation Requirement Between a Residence and an
Establishment Selling Alcoholic Beverages to Allow the Accessory Use of
the Sale of Alcoholic Beverages for On-Premises Consumption -
Approximately 0.47 Acres Located at 422 West Pioneer Drive - Mi Dia Cafe
from Scratch, Applicant; Mohammad "Sonny" Mansoori, Owner
Administrative Comments
1. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation: Pending (November 7,
2022 meeting).
2. The subject property is a 0.47-acre lot with an existing restaurant. The applicant is
requesting a zoning change to allow a restaurant to sell alcoholic beverages
for on-premises consumption with an alcohol distance amendment variance
from a residential property.
3. The 2017 Imagine Irving Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map recommends
Mid-Density Residential uses for this property. This land use category is described
as predominantly two- and three-story buildings, either entirely residential, or
residential with ground floor non-residential uses with pedestrian-design buildings
and streets. While the requested zoning is not in conformance with the
Comprehensive Plan, the underlying use of a restaurant is not changing. Therefore,
no amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map is required.
4. The applicant is proposing the existing restaurant, Mi Dia Café from Scratch, to
have alcoholic beverage sales. The alcohol storage will be located in the back of
the restaurant and a “service counter” will be constructed between the preparation
and dining areas.
5. The building was originally constructed in 1973 and has been used as a restaurant
by several tenants over the past 49 years. The applicant is proposing to convert the
parking spaces under the front canopy into an outdoor patio. The site plan
stipulates that a maximum of 50 seats will be in the restaurant, including the patio
area. This proposal meets the twenty (20) minimum required parking spaces and
does not need a parking variance.
6. The R-AB ordinance requires a minimum of 50% of the revenue to come from food
sales. This is reported semi-annually to the City.
Alcohol Distance Variance
7. Section 3.3.5(b) states that the sale of alcoholic beverages within 300 feet of a
property zoned a residential zoning district or used for residential purposes is
prohibited, as measured from front door to front door as measured along the
property lines of the street fronts and in a direct line across intersections.
While there are several residential properties in the area, two homes are within 300 feet using the adopted measurement criteria, with the closest residential front door
being approximately 210 feet from the proposed new doorway of the restaurant.
8. The following variance is being requested for the alcohol distance amendment:
9. Council can grant a variance to the required separation from a residential building
and an establishment selling alcoholic beverages if it determines:
a. Enforcement of the regulation in a particular instance is not in the best
interest of the public;
b. Constitutes a waste or inefficient use of land or resources;
c. Creates an undue hardship on an applicant;
d. Does not serve its intended purpose;
e. Is not effective or necessary; or
f. For any other reason the City Council determines is in the best interest of the
community after consideration of the health, safety, and welfare of the public
and the equities of the situation.
10.While there are two other restaurants nearby the subject property, these are zoned
C-N “Neighborhood Commercial” and there are no properties with S-P-1 (R-AB)
zoning located along this section of W. Pioneer Dr.
11.The applicant states in their letter of intent that their customers have supported and
encouraged the sale of alcohol beverages at the restaurant and that the alcohol
would be stored safely.
12.The applicant will meet all other requirements per Section 3.3 of the UDC (Alcoholic
Beverages; Sale, Serving or Storage).
13. A total of 58 public notices were mailed. Staff has received two (2) responses in
support and one (1) response in opposition. The opposition represents 1.76% of the
land within 200 feet of the subject property. Per state law, a ¾-vote is not required
for approval.
Staff Recommendation
Staff has no objection to this request

The requested zoning is in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
4. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing gas station and develop a
specialty food market with sales of dry goods and frozen merchandise.
5. This property previously underwent a zoning change in 2009 from S-P-1 (C-C) and
Car Wash uses to S-P-1 for Convenience Store, Gasoline Sales and Car Wash
uses (in conjunction with being in the State Highway 161 Overlay) to redevelop the
site with a new gas station and convenience store. The redevelopment of the site
never occurred.
6. The applicant is proposing to demolish the existing building and redevelop the site.
The proposed use and redevelopment will comply with the C-C “Community
Commercial” district and State Highway 161 Overlay District requirements;
therefore, site plan zoning is not necessary.

with the future land use map and the surrounding uses, staff can support this
request.
