The subject property is located on Hunter Road, approximately 780 feet east of FM 306 and north of FM 1102. There is an existing single-family residence and barn structure at 2050 Hunter Road that are planned to remain until future development of the property. The property located at 2100 Hunter Road previously had several mobile home rental units on the site but the units were recently removed and there is one single-family residence remaining on the property until future development.
The property was annexed into the City Limits in 2001 and zoned with the interim APD Agricultural/Pre-Development District designation. The owner has no immediate plans for development but is requesting M-1A Light Industrial District zoning for development continuity with the adjacent property he owns, Brooks Stone Ranch, located at 2051 FM 1102.
The M-1A district is intended for light manufacturing and fabrication, warehousing, distribution, wholesaling, and service operations that do not typically depend on frequent customer visits.

FISCAL IMPACT:
N/A
Determination Factors:
In making a decision on zoning, the following factors are to be considered:
§ Whether the permitted uses will be appropriate in the immediate area, and their relationship to the area and to the City as a whole (M-1A zoning is consistent with existing M-1 and M-1A zoning in the immediate area and the subject property is in close proximity to FM 306 and FM 1102; both of which are Minor Arterials.
§ Whether the change is in accord with any existing or proposed public schools, streets, water supply, sanitary sewers, and other utilities to the area (The proposed zoning should not conflict with existing and proposed schools, streets, or utilities in the area.);
§ How other areas designated for similar development will be affected (The proposed zoning should not impact other areas designated for similar development. M-1A on this tract will increase inventory of industrially zoned land that does not allow single-family or two-family residential.);
§ Any other factors that will substantially affect the public health, safety, morals, or general welfare (There should be no other factors that will negatively affect the public health, safety, morals, or general welfare. Drainage, utility and traffic impact issues will be reviewed and addressed through the platting process.); and
§ Whether the request is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan (The subject property lies within the Oak Creek Sub Area and near Transitional Mixed-Use Corridors (FM 306 & FM 1102) and existing Market and Employment Centers.)
Recommendation
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
N/A
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The requested M-1A zoning would be consistent with the existing surrounding zoning along FM 306, FM 1102 and Hunter Road, and with the City Council priority of increasing the inventory of industrial greenfield in appropriate locations. Therefore, staff recommends approval of the applicant’s request.
