SO I'M GONNA READ THIS NOTICE AND IT APPLIES TO ALL THE PUBLIC HEARINGS. PUBLIC HEARINGS TODAY ARE BEING HELD FOR THE PURPOSE OF GIVING ALL INTERESTED PARTIES THE RIGHT TO SPEAK AND BE HEARD. EVERYONE DESIRING TO SPEAK AT TODAY'S HEARINGS SHOULD HAVE EITHER SIGNED THE APPROPRIATE LIST IN THE FOYER OR EMAILED IT TO THE PLANNING@BAYTOWN.ORG.

C HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS? YES, SIR. ALRIGHTY. THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. UH, SO THIS IS THE FIRST PUBLIC HEARING, UH, FOR REQUEST FOR A SPECIAL USE PERMIT, UH, WHICH IS ACCOMPANIED BY A REQUEST, UH, TO REONE APPROXIMATELY 136 ACRES SITUATED WITHIN THE PORT 10 LOGISTICS CENTER DEVELOPMENT FROM LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO HEAVY INDUSTRIAL. AND THAT SUP FOR HEAVY, UH, INDUSTRIAL USE IS NOT DEFINED BY THE YDC. THE PROPOSED USE OF RAIL YARD, UH, IS AN, UH, INDUSTRIAL USE THAT IS NOT [00:20:01] IDENTIFIED WITHIN THE LDC AND THEREFORE REQUIRES A SPECIAL, REQUIRES A SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR SUCH AN INDUSTRIAL USE. THE COMPANY REZONING REQUEST IS TO ENSURE THAT THE UNDERLYING ZONING, UH, IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE PROPOSED USE. THE TWO REQUESTS ARE LINKED TOGETHER. THE INITIAL MASTER PLAN FOR THE PORT 10 FOR PORT 10 WAS APPROVED WITH THE REINVESTMENT ZONE AND TAX ABATEMENT, UH, WHEN THEY WERE CONSIDERED AND HAD ALWAYS INCORPORATED SOME ELEMENT OF RAIL. UH, SO THIS CURRENT PROPOSAL IS NOT A HUGE DEPARTURE FROM THE ORIGINAL PLAN. HOWEVER, THE PROPOSED RAIL YARD IS MORE INTENSE THAN THE INITIAL MASTER PLAN HAD SUGGESTED, AND THEREFORE, NO LONGER WAS THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONING DESIGNATION SUITABLE FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT SCENARIO, WHICH IS THIS, UH, THE REQUEST IS NOT CONSISTENT CURRENTLY WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN. HOWEVER, UM, AS Y'ALL DISCUSS LATER IN ITEM SEVEN A, THERE ARE PROPOSED EFFORTS TO AMEND THE FLUKE, UH, FOR THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IN, IN SOME OTHER AREA, UH, TO INDUSTRIAL, UH, FLUKE DESIGNATION OF INDUSTRIAL, WHICH WOULD SUPPORT THE REQUESTED SUP AND REZONING. UH, REGARDING COMPATIBILITY, UH, WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA, THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS SURROUNDED BY ZONED OR DEVELOPED LIGHT INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY TO THE NORTHEAST AND WEST. UH, THERE ARE PREDOMINANTLY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES THAT ABUT THE SUBJECT PROPERTY TO THE SOUTH THAT ARE LOCATED UNINCORPORATED HARRIS COUNTY. BECAUSE THESE PROPERTIES TO THE SOUTH ARE NOT LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS OF BAYTOWN COMPATIBILITY STANDARDS ARE NOT STATUTORILY REQUIRED. HOWEVER, STAFF IN COOPERATION WITH THE APPLICANT HAS ASSESSED CONDITIONS THAT WILL REQUIRE COMPATIBILITY, MITIGATION PRACTICES TO LIMIT POTENTIAL IMPACTS FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT ON NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES. THESE MEASURES INCLUDE INSTALLING AND MAINTAINING A LANDSCAPE BERM AND LANDSCAPING PLANTINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH, UH, WHAT WE CALL A VEGETATIVE BUFFER ZONE, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD ENFORCE IF SOME NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES, UH, RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES WERE IN THE CITY, BUT THESE ARE NOT. SO THAT'S SOMETHING, UH, EXTRA THAT WE ARE, UH, ASSESSING AS A CONDITION AS WELL AS PROHIBITING MATERIALS THAT ARE HIGHLY TOXIC OR HARMFUL. UM, AND FINALLY, A CONDITION TO ENSURE SUBSTANTIAL CONFORMANCE TO THE SITE PLAN AS PROPOSED WITH THIS REQUEST THAT WILL BE ENFORCED BY STAFF DURING THE PERMITTING AND DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. SO THAT'S JUST A GENERIC OVERVIEW OF THE REQUEST. UM, YOU KNOW, MYSELF AS LONG AS, AS WELL AS THE APPLICANT ARE HERE TO ADDRESS ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS THAT Y'ALL MAY HAVE. COMMISSIONERS, DO YOU WANT TO WITH YOUR QUESTIONS NOW OR, OR STAFF NOW OR WAIT TILL AFTER THE, UH, THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN? WE CAN WAIT TILL AFTER. OKAY. LET'S WAIT TILL AFTER. THANK YOU.

SO, SO THANK YOU FOR, UH, FOR, UH, ALLOWING US TO COME TO YOU THIS EVENING AND SPEAK TO YOU. UH, THE PROJECT THAT WE'RE JUST MENTIONING HERE, UH, AS YOU MENTIONED, THE ORIGINAL PLAN THAT WE'D HAD PUT UP THERE WAS, UH, IN THIS 136 ACRES, UH, HAD SEVERAL MILLION SQUARE FEET OF RAILER INDUSTRIAL, UH, WAREHOUSE SPACE. THE PLAN THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT TODAY, UH, SHOWS PRIMARILY IT STILL HAS THE APPROXIMATELY A MILLION SQUARE FOOT IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT TODAY. UH, RAIL SERVE BUILDING, AS WELL AS SOME ADDITIONAL, UH, RAIL CAPACITY THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT, UH, ALSO SHOWN ON THE PLAN, BUT IS NOT PART OF THIS, UH, DISCUSSIONS, UH, BECAUSE IT HASN'T BEEN CONFIRMED, IS A POSSIBLE EXTENSION OF THE CODY YARD THAT'S, UH, THE EXISTING RAIL YARD THAT'S ALREADY THERE TODAY. SO, UH, THERE'S DISCUSSIONS HAPPENING WITH, UH, UP AS WELL. UH, SO WHAT GOT US TO THIS POINT FROM THE, THE INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS RAIL SERVE TO, UH, PRIMARILY, UH, ONE RAIL SERVE BUILDING AND, UH, ADDITIONAL RAIL AS WE WERE VISITING AND DEVELOPING, UH, [00:25:01] AS WE WERE VISITING WITH, UH, THE CUSTOMERS IN THIS AREA AS WELL AS, UH, THE RAIL LINES, UH, THERE WAS A NEED FOR ADDITIONAL, UH, CAPACITY, UH, STORAGE CAPACITY, UH, FOR RAIL CARS. SO THAT'S KIND OF WHAT WAS THE DRIVING FACTOR TO GETTING US THERE, UH, UH, TODAY. UH, A COUPLE OF THINGS BEFORE WE GET INTO SOME OF YOUR QUESTIONS THAT ARE PROBABLY MORE TECHNICAL, UH, WHICH I'LL HAVE THE ENGINEERS, UH, COME UP AND SPEAK TO, IS WE'RE NOT INCREASING CAPACITY ON THE RAIL SYS ON THE RAIL SYSTEM IN THIS AREA. WHAT WE'RE DOING IS, UM, UH, THAT CAPACITY IN THE CARS THAT ARE GONNA BE STORED ON THIS, UH, RAIL YARD ARE CURRENTLY ENTERING AND EXITING, UH, THAT MAIN UP RAIL LINE AS IT IS TODAY. UH, IT'S JUST GONNA BE ELIMINATING, UH, CONGESTION ALONG THE LINE AND HELP, UH, ELIMINATING SOME OF THE, THE TRAFFIC CONGESTIONS THAT, UH, NOT ONLY VEHICLE TRAFFIC, BUT UH, WITH, UH, NEW PACIFIC AS IT RELATES TO THEIR ENTIRE, UH, NETWORK FROM CODY YARD TO DAYTON AND OTHER AREAS. UH, WHAT THIS WILL DO WILL BE ELIMINATE TRUCK TRAFFIC, UH, UH, WITH THE REDUCTION OF, UH, THE, UH, INDUSTRIAL SPACE. SO IT'S GONNA ELIMINATE, UH, ADDITIONAL TRUCK TRAFFIC OUT ON, UH, UM, DO I NEED TO STOP? NO, JUST CONTINUE. OKAY. YOUR STATEMENT THEN. WE'LL, YEAH. SO, UM, IT'LL ELIMINATE THE, UH, 18 WHEELER CONGESTION TRAFFIC AT THOMPSON ROAD AND I 10 N INTERSECTION. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I, I'VE MENTIONED THAT, UH, IT IS ADJACENT TO THE, UH, CURRENT CODY UP YARD TODAY. THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS. YOU WANNA ASK QUESTIONS NOW? ? SO JOHN, YOU'RE SAYING THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA INCREASE THE NUMBER OF CARS ON THE TRACK MOVING. I'LL, I'LL LET THE, UH, BRANDON MUSER OUR RAIL GUY. DON'T SAY EXPERT. OKAY. AND IF YOU WILL JUST SAY YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS. BRANDON MUSSER, UH, BROOKSHIRE, TEXAS. UH, WE'RE IN RAILROAD, INDUSTRIAL RAILROAD CONSULTANT, AND THIS IS WHAT WE'VE DONE FOR 30 YEARS. UH, TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, NO, WE'RE ACTUALLY THIS, AN ASSET LIKE THIS WOULD BE USED TO CONSOLIDATE, UH, CARS THAT ARE CURRENTLY FLOWING IN AND OUTTA THE BAYTOWN COMPLEX, UH, THROUGH ALL THE PETROCHEMICAL FACILITIES, AGGREGATE 'EM IN, UH, WHAT WE CALL UPSTREAM BECAUSE THE WHOLE WORLD, THE RAILROAD WORLD FLOWS FROM I 10 SOUTH THROUGH, UH, WHAT'S WE CALL IT, THE WHISTLE STOP. CODY, UH, TEXAS, BASICALLY IN THE BAYTOWN THROUGH THE EXXON COMPLEX OVER TO THE EAST SIDE OF BAYTOWN, BACK UP MONT BELLEVUE TO DAYTON. THAT'S THE WAY THE WORLD FLOWS TODAY. THIS IS A WIDE SPOT IN THE ROAD TO AGGREGATE THOSE SAME CARS INTO A, INTO A HOLDING AREA, AND THEN METER THEM INTO BAYTOWN RATHER THAN TODAY BECAUSE OF LIMITED CAPACITY, THOSE CARS END UP IN BAYTOWN, OFTEN IN WHAT WE CALL ROLLING STORAGE. AND YOU SEE A LOT OF CONGESTION, YOU SEE A LOT, ESPECIALLY WITH THE PUBLIC AT ROAD CROSSINGS. THIS ALLOWS US TO CONSOLIDATE THAT, THAT, UH, TRAFFIC, UH, TO STAGE IT FOR THE PETROCHEMICAL PRODUCERS AND THEN METER IT INTO THE, INTO THE COMPLEX AS THEY NEED IT. OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. QUESTION? YES, SIR. I, I HEARD 'EM SAY NO HAZARDOUS MATERIALS, HOWEVER, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S GONNA BE A RATHER LARGE HYDROCARBON STORAGE FACILITY. UH, IS THERE ANY CONTINGENCY FOR A RUNAWAY CHAIN REACTION FIRE OR THAT SORT OF THING? BECAUSE THAT'S, THAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH HIGH DENSITY STORAGE LIKE THAT. YOU BET. YEAH, IT'S, UH, IT'D BE CONSTRUCTED TO THE, THE, THE, THE SAME EXACTING STANDARDS THAT THE, THE, THE U-S-D-O-T PUTS ON ALL PROJECTS. WE DON'T ALLOW ANYTHING IN THERE THAT'S, UH, POISONOUS IN INHALATION HAZARD OR TOXIC INHALATION HAZARD. UH, THERE ARE OTHER THINGS THAT WOULD BE COMING IN AND OUTTA THE PLANT THAT ARE ALREADY GOING, LIKE I SAID, IN AND OUT TODAY. UH, BUT YES, IT WOULD BE, UH, HEAVILY, UH, PROTECTED WITH, UH, WITH ACCESS BY FOR FIRE AND, UH, AND FIRST RESPONDERS. UH, THAT THOSE ARE ALL REQUIREMENTS THAT, UH, UH, IF THE, IF, UH, YOU GUYS DON'T PUT ON 'EM, THE INSURANCE COMPANIES CERTAINLY DO. AND ONE MORE QUESTION. THERE'S SOME KIND OF SLEEPY NEIGHBORHOODS SOUTH OF THAT, AND I HEARD 'EM TALK ABOUT A BERM. UH, I WAS HOPEFUL TO SEE SOMETHING MORE LIKE A 10 FOOT SOUND AND LIGHT BARRIER, LIKE A STACKABLE CONCRETE, UH, JUST TO, 'CAUSE I'M IMAGINING A 24 7 OPERATION. LET ME ADD, A LOT OF PEOPLE WORRY ABOUT THAT. AND YOU'VE SEEN THIS IS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT GOES ON IN THE, UH, IN THE AMERI PORT FACILITY. WE'RE ALSO THE ENGINEERS IN, WE, WE DESIGNED THAT ASSET WITH, UH, NATIONAL PROPERTY HOLDINGS. UH, THE, THE, THE TECHNOLOGY HAS CHANGED. SAFETY STANDARDS HAVE CHANGED THE, THE, WHAT WE USED TO CALL KICKING OF CARS, AND THEY WOULD FREE ROLL AND YOU'D HEAR THE BANG AND THE CLAIM, THOSE DAYS ARE GONE. UH, WE DON'T ALLOW PEOPLE, UH, NUMBER ONE, WE DON'T LIKE DOING THAT. THE ASSETS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE. UH, IT'S UNSAFE. NO ONE LIKES TO LOSE CONTROL OF THAT CAR AND HAVE IT FREE ROLL WITHOUT HAVING AIR ON IT TO PROTECT THE, THE BRAKING SYSTEM. SO THOSE DAYS [00:30:01] ARE GONE AND IT'S, IT'S WORKED VERY WELL AT AMER AIRPORT, UH, WITH THOSE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS CLOSE BY ON THE EAST SIDE OF THAT, OF THAT, THAT FACILITY BE VERY SIMILAR HERE. UH, THE BERM AT 10 FEET WITH A VEGETATIVE, UH, UH, VEGETATIVE PROTECTION ON TOP OF IT WOULD, OR NOT 10 FEET. I, I MAY HAVE MISSPOKE. HOW, HOW WAS IT, BRANDON, YOU MIGHT SPEAK TO THAT. UM, BRANDON GUILLORY, 1 3 6 0 3 CHESTER LANE, HOUSTON, TEXAS. THANK YOU. SO THERE'S A LANDSCAPE BUFFER ALONG THE SOUTH EDGE OF THE PROPERTY THAT YOU CAN SEE. IT'S 50 FEET WIDE. UM, IT'S PROPOSED TO BE PLANTED, UM, WITH GROUND PLANTINGS AND TREES THAT ARE STAGGERED ALONG THE LENGTH OF THE BUFFER, AS WELL AS A BURN THAT'S INCORPORATED INTO THE 50 FOOT BUFFER. AND THEN YOU SEE THAT, UM, NEAR THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE SITE, THE LARGE BLUE TRIANGLE, THAT'S A DETENTION POND. SO THAT'S JUST GONNA FURTHER REMOVE THE PROPOSED RAIL LINES JUST NORTH OF THERE FROM THAT SOUTHERN PROPERTY LINE. AND SO WE, WE FEEL LIKE THERE'S, UM, A GOOD BUFFER DOWN THERE. THE FENCING THAT'S PROPOSED CURRENTLY ALONG THE SOUTH PROPERTY LINE IS A SECURITY FENCE, UM, YOU KNOW, TO CONTROL ACCESS TO THE YARD. OKAY. AND, AND IN THE ORIGINAL DRAWING, THERE WAS A ROAD HEADING TO THE SOUTH TOWARD WEST CEDAR BIO. HAS THAT BEEN DONE AWAY WITH IT? IT HAS. OKAY. YES. OTHER QUESTIONS? ONE ADDITIONAL QUESTION. HOW IS HAVING THE, THE RAIL YARD THERE GOING TO TAKE TRUCK TRAFFIC OFF OF I 10 AND THOMPSON? IT'S, WE'RE ELIMINATING THE CONCENTRATION OF 2 MILLION SQUARE FEET OF WAREHOUSE SERVED, TRUCK SERVED BUILDINGS THAT ARE BRINGING TRUCKS IN AND BRINGING OUT TO SERVE SERVICE AT 2 MILLION SQUARE FEET. THANK YOU. OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS? BRANDON, CAN YOU JUST TELL US WHAT, UH, WHAT'S THE SIZE OF THE BERM, THE HEIGHT OF THE BERM, UH, THAT YOU GUYS ARE PROPOSING? WE HAVEN'T DESIGNED IT, BUT JUST LOOKING AT THE 50 FOOT WIDTH IN THERE, WE WOULD ASSUME THAT IT WOULD PROBABLY BE SOMEWHERE IN THE PROBABLY FIVE FOOT RANGE. IF YOU GO UP AT A FOUR TO ONE SLOPE AT ONE END, DOWN AT A FOUR TO ONE, THAT RIGHT THERE IS GONNA TAKE UP 40 FEET OUTTA THE 50. OKAY. SO PROBABLY AROUND FIVE FEET HIGH WITH THOSE TREES AND PLANTINGS ON EITHER SIDE AND ON THE BERM. OKAY. THIS HAS ACCESS TO THIS PROPERTY ON THOMPSON PARK DRIVE, WHERE'S ACCESS? THERE'LL BE A COUPLE OF POINTS OF ACCESS. SO FROM THOMPSON ROAD. MM-HMM . UM, THANK YOU. LOOK AT YOUR . YOU'LL BE ABLE TO ACCESS HEADING EAST ON THOMPSON ROAD AND THERE'S A BRIDGE THAT'S NOW BEEN CONSTRUCTED OVER THE SJRA FRESHWATER CANAL RIGHT THERE. SO THAT'S IN PLACE TODAY. SO THAT'LL BE ONE ACCESS POINT. AND THEN, UM, IF YOU WERE TO COME ACROSS THAT BRIDGE ACROSS THE SJRA CANAL AND TURN LEFT AND HEAD NORTH. YES, THANK YOU. YOU'LL HEAD UP AND THAT, THAT DRIVE CONNECTS TO I 10. PERFECT. THANK YOU. WILL THERE BE TURNOFF LANES, UH, CONSTRUCTED AT THE I 10 SIDE OR THE THOMPSON SIDE TO HELP THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC? UH, THE, THE THOMPSON SIDE, THAT'S A SIGNALED INTERSECTION OR WILL BE A SIGNALED INTERSECTION. THAT DESIGN'S BEEN COMPLETED AND NOW UNDER REVIEW. UM, SO THAT'LL BE SIGNALED. THERE ARE NOT TURN LANES, UH, ALONG I 10. I DON'T BELIEVE THOSE WERE ACTUALLY CONSTRUCTED. THE DRIVE THAT CURRENTLY CONNECTS TO I 10 IS IN PLACE THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED AS A A PAST PHASE. THE TWO INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS LOCATED NORTH OF THE 1 MILLION SQUARE FOOT BUILDING YOU SEE ON THIS SITE PLAN, UH, ONE OF THOSE TWO, THE EASTERN MOST IS IN PLACE. AND SO AS A PART OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF THOSE, THAT FIRST BUILDING THE DRIVE CONNECTION HAS ALREADY BEEN MADE TO I 10. THANK YOU. OTHER QUESTIONS? GO AHEAD. I'M SORRY, SIR. SEEMS LIKE THERE'S A LOT OF RAILS AND NOT MANY BUSHES. UM, , UM, A FIVE FOOT BERM I THINK IS, IT IS MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. IT WOULD BE NICER TO HAVE 10 TO 12 FEET AND IF IT WAS WIDER, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S FEASIBLE. I MEAN, ANYTHING YOU DO WOULD BE TAKING UP SQUARE FOOTAGE OF WORKSPACE, BUT IT, UH, I THINK THAT WOULD GO A LONG WAY. IF YOU SEE THE BERM GOING FROM, UH, GOING INTO THE BACKSIDE OF SEABROOK AT THE PORT OF HOUSTON FACILITY, IT'S TALL AND IT'S WIDE AND IT WORKS. OKAY. OTHER COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS, GEORGE? NICK, YOU GUYS WANNA TALK? I DON'T KNOW IF I REALLY WANNA WASTE YOUR TIME OTHER THAN SAY THANK VERY MUCH FOR THE RECORD. PUT YOUR, YOUR NAME. YOUR NAME. GEORGE. I'M SORRY, WHAT'S THAT? GEORGE PONCA. GEORGE PONCA, 25 41 WEST BAY SHORE DRIVE. ANAAC, TEXAS. . HOW ABOUT THAT? THANK YOU, SIR.

SAME ADDRESS, SAME DESCRIPTION, UH, FROM LIGHT INDUSTRIAL TO HEAVY INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICT. YES SIR. YEAH. SO THIS IS THE COMPANION, UH, ZONING REZONING PIECE, UM, YOU KNOW, REQUIRED BY THE SUP THAT ANY AND HEAVY, HEAVY INDUSTRIAL USE HAVE AN SUP AS WELL AS THE CORRECT UNDERLYING ZONING. AND SO I DON'T, I DON'T KNOW, THERE'S TOO MUCH THAT WE CAN ADD TO THE PREVIOUS PRESENTATION. SO ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR, FROM THE COMMISSION AND EVERYTHING AROUND IT? IS LI EVERYTHING WITHIN THE CITY? YES. IS LI OKAY. IT WAS LI OKAY. THE SUP DOES IT REGULATE WHAT TYPE OF PRODUCT CAN BE STORED IN THAT WAREHOUSE OFF THAT RAIL YARD? I, I MEAN, LIMITATIONS CAN BE ASSESSED. I MEAN, IF THAT IS THE, I MEAN WHEN YOU TAKE IT TO HEAVY INDUSTRIAL, THAT COULD BE, IT OPENS IT ALMOST ANYTHING. YEAH, WE'RE ZONING IT ONCE IT'S ZONED, IF THEY DO SOMETHING ELSE, THE PROPERTY, IT STILL REMAINS HR. THE QUESTION IS LEGITIMATE, ESPECIALLY YEAH. YEAH. WITHIN THE SPECIAL USE. AND IF YOU NOTICED, UM, WITHIN THEIR APPLICANT'S STATEMENT, THEY OFFERED UP THAT THERE COULD BE SPECIFICATIONS AS TO WHAT TYPES OF, UM, MATERIALS COULD BE, UM, STORED THERE. AND SO THEY, THEY LIMITED WITH THEIR APPLICATION TOO, AND THEN THEY MIGHT WANT TO GET UP AND SPEAK TO THAT. BUT IF, IF IT'S A REASONABLE CONDITION THAT YOU CAN ADD TO IT, THEN YES YOU CAN, YOU CAN DO THAT. BUT, BUT, AND ALSO TO ADD TO, UH, TO EASE THE COMMISSION, UM, ANY OTHER INDUSTRIAL HEAVY INDUSTRIAL KIND OF USE THAT DIFFERS FROM WHAT'S PROPOSED HERE WOULD REQUIRE AN ADDITIONAL SPECIAL USE PERMIT. OKAY. SO EVERY TIME IT CHANGES AN EXTRA SPECIAL USE PERMIT. OKAY. RIGHT. THAT'S GOOD. SO IT WOULD BE, IT'D BE REGULATED BY THE CITY PROTECTION. VERY GOOD. PROTECTION. UM, WE HAVE THE SAME LINED UP. JOHN, YOU WANNA LEAD OFF OR NOTHING ELSE? UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY, UNLESS YOU GUYS HAVE ANYTHING TO OFFER. OKAY. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS ON THIS PARTICULAR, UH, ZONING REQUEST? HEARING NONE, I WILL CLOSE THIS HEARING. [c.

SO THIS IS THE SECOND PUBLIC HEARING, UH, FOR A REQUEST TO REZONE APPROXIMATELY NINE POINT 12 ACRES SITUATED IN THE 2000 BLOCK OF LEAD DRIVE, UH, FROM SF TWO TO GENERAL COMMERCIAL. UH, THE SUBJECT PROPERTIES ARE CURRENTLY, I DON'T THINK WE HAVE AN AERIAL HERE, BUT THEY'RE CURRENTLY VACANT. UH, THE REQUEST SERVES TO EXPAND COMMERCIAL OPPORTUNITY ALONG A MINOR ARTERIAL UH, CORRIDOR AND PREDOMINANTLY COMMERCIAL AREA. ALSO IN GREAT PROXIMITY TO THE UM, GRAND PARKWAY CORRIDOR. UH, GENERAL COMMERCIAL IS AN APPROPRIATE ZONING DISTRICT FOR THE ZONE AND DEVELOPED USES SURROUNDING THE PROPERTY AND IS IN GENERAL CONFORMANCE WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN. UM, AS YOU SEE HERE, THERE, THERE IS SOME, BECAUSE IT'S A LARGE PARCEL, THERE'S UM, A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT, UH, DESIGNATIONS ON THIS PROPERTY. IN RESPECTS TO THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN, IT'S SPLIT BETWEEN, UH, COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR AND LOW MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. BUT GIVEN THE, UH, COMMERCIAL USES AND ACTIVITY WITHIN THAT AREA, WITHIN THAT BLOCK, UH, GENERAL COMMERCIAL WOULD BE, UH, A MORE APPROPRIATE ZONING USE AND BETTER PROBABLY BEST USE OF THE PROPERTY. UM, AND THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL. ANY QUESTIONS? I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM QUESTIONS. COMMISSIONER OF STAFF, IF YOU CAN RECALL THIS IS THE, AND THE APPLICANT IS AVAILABLE VIA ZOOM.

Consider stop control modifications to the intersection of Caldwell Street at Red Bud Lane.] FIVE. THERE WE GO. STOP SIGNS. ADD PIN. IF I CAN INDULGE WITH THE COMMISSIONERS FOR A SECOND. AS, AS HE COMES UP TO DISCUSS. WE'VE GOT ITEMS A, B, THOSE TWO ARE, THOSE ARE THE ONES IN C AND E. C AND F FOR RELATED A AND B ARE IN LAKEWOOD? YEAH. LET'S, LET'S DO THE ONES THAT ARE, YOU CAN DESCRIBE BOTH OF 'EM, THEN WE'LL TAKE BOTH A AND B AS ONE ITEM. WE'LL TRY TO GROUP SO WE DON'T HAVE TO HAVE SO MANY. HOWEVER Y'ALL WANT ME TO DO IS PERFECT. LET'S DO AN A AND B TOGETHER. WE'LL SEE HOW THAT WORKS. OKAY. UM, THE, UH, ED AND LAKEWOOD SUBDIVISION OVER BY THE, UH, UM, JUNIOR SCHOOL. THERE ARE A COUPLE INTERSECTIONS THAT ARE UNCONTROLLED T INTERSECTIONS AND REQUESTS HAVE COME IN TO PUT STOP CONTROL ON THE, UH, MINOR LEG OF THE T INTERSECTIONS. AND THAT'S WHAT BOTH OF THESE ARE IN LAKEWOOD. UM, SO HERE IS RED BUD LANE. UM, ON YOUR LEFT IS THE UN IS THE CURRENT CONDITION. AND THE PROPOSED CONDITION IS TO PUT A STOP SIGN ON RED BUD LANE, UM, APPROACHING CALDWELL THEN FOR RED BUD AT MAY. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE, UM, UH, POST OAK AT, UH, CALDWELL. SO THE NEXT INTERSECTION TO THE NORTH. YEAH, IT'S JUST A, IT'S THE SAME INTERSECTION ALONG CALDWELL. YES. UM, EXCEPT IN THIS CASE CALDWELL IS THE MINOR LEG AND POST OAK IS THE MAJOR AND, UH, CALDWELL WOULD RECEIVE THE STOP SIGN. OKAY. COMMISSIONER'S HANDLING THESE BOTH TOGETHER. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS ON THESE TWO? MAKES GOOD SENSE TO ME. DO I HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVING BOTH A FIVE A AND FIVE B MOVE APPROVAL FOR A AND B. SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE A AND B.

UM, DURING THE DEVELOPMENT OF LIN OF THE INITIAL SECTIONS OF LINWOOD SUBDIVISION, I WASN'T HERE. AND, UH, THE, UM, STOP SIGNS WERE LEFT OUT OF WOODLE COURT AT WOODHALL DRIVE AND F IS WOODHALL DRIVE AT, UH, LINWOOD. SO THAT THE YES, SIR. THANK YOU, NATHAN, WHOEVER. OH, THANK YOU NATHAN. UM, THESE ARE THE TWO INTERSECTIONS. UM, AGAIN, IT IS, UH, PUTTING A STOP SIGN ON THE MINOR LEG TO AN UNCONTROLLED INTERSECTION FOR BOTH OF THESE. OKAY. QUESTIONS OF STAFF COMMISSIONERS. HEARING NONE, DO I HAVE A, A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF C AND F, B, B, C AND F? DO I HAVE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL? JUST CN, F. JUST C-N-F-C-N-F. WHAT DID I SAY? YOU SAID A, YOU SHOULD BE CNF. OKAY. SORRY. CNF I'M SORRY. MAKE THE MOTION SECOND. OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. MOTION CARRIES. OKAY. [d. Consider stop control modifications at the intersection of Goose Creek Park Drive at Summerlin Court.] UM, ITEM D OH, I'M SORRY. THAT'S FINE. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING ELSE THAT LINES UP [00:45:01] WITH IT, SO I APOLOGIZE. UM, AT THE INTERSECTION OF GOOSE CREEK PARK DRIVE AT SUMMERLAND COURT, UH, FOR THOSE WHO YOU WHO ARE FAMILIAR WITH GOOSE CREEK RESERVE, UM, SUMMERLAND COURT IS THE, UM, THE MODEL HOME, UH, CUL-DE-SAC, UM, WHICH HAS NOW BEEN CONVERTED AND AND SOLD OFF TO RESIDENTS. ALL THE HOMES ARE, UM, CURRENTLY OWNED AND OCCUPIED. UM, UM, THE AT AT ISSUE HERE. UM, SIGHT LINES. SIGHT LINES, YES. UM, WHEN THIS, UH, SUBDIVISION WAS PLATTED IT, THERE WASN'T A TRAFFIC ENGINEER ON STAFF TO LOOK AT THINGS LIKE THIS. UM, ON THE INSIDE OF THE CURVE IS WHERE YOU HAVE, UM, THE MOST LIKELY LOCATIONS FOR, UM, SITE TRIANGLE ISSUES. AND IN THIS CASE, COMING OUTTA THE CUL-DE-SAC YOU CAN'T SEE TO THE LEFT, WHICH WOULD BE TO THE EAST. AND THEY CAN'T SEE TO THE CURVE OF LINEAR NATURE OF THE, UH, OF GO, UM, GOOSE CREEK PARK DRIVE. THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC CAN'T SEE THEM EITHER. AND SO IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. UM, I HAVE GONE OUT AND MEASURED IT. AND AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THIS, THE, UH, THE SITE TRIANGLES ARE VERY LIMITED TO, TO THE EXISTING, UM, FENCES. AND SO THE REQUEST WAS MADE TO TURN THIS INTO AN ALLWAY STOP CONDITION. UM, SO THAT THE VEHICLES APPROACHING ON GOOSE CREEK PARK DRIVE WILL HAVE TO STOP AND ACTUALLY LOOK FOR TRAFFIC BEFORE THEY CAN MOVE ON. SO IT'S A FOUR-WAY STOP. THREE THREEWAY STOP. YES, SIR. THREE-WAY STOP. ALLWAY. SORRY. THAT'S OKAY. OKAY. QUESTIONS. COMMISSIONERS. HEARING NONE. MOTION FOR APPROVAL? MOVE APPROVAL. SECOND. SECOND. JEFF SECONDS IT. AND THIS IS FIVE D. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? HEARING NONE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. AYE. OPPOSED? OKAY. HERE 'CAUSE [e. Consider stop control modifications to intersections in Lee Heights.] THE, THE BEHEMOTH. DO Y'ALL WANT TO GET THIS ONE AND COME BACK TO US SINCE IT'S THE BIG ONE? NAH, WE'LL TAKE IT. WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE TOUGH. WE'RE OKAY. LET'S GET IT OUT. UM, AS Y'ALL ARE, UM, UNFORTUNATELY AWARE, MANY OF OUR OLDER SECTIONS OF THE CITY HAVE NO STOP CONTROL WHATSOEVER. UM, OR VERY LIMITED INTERSECTION CONTROL WITHIN THEIR BOUNDARIES. UM, AND AS WE TALKED ABOUT LAST YEAR WITH THE STATE STREETS, WE CAN'T ADDRESS THIS AS AN INDIVIDUAL STREET OR AN INDIVIDUAL INTERSECTION BECAUSE ALL THAT'S GOING TO DO IS DIVERT TRAFFIC TO THE OTHER STREETS AND CAUSE JUST A BIGGER PROBLEM ON THE OTHERS. SO IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS, WE LOOK AT IT FROM A, UM, A NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN. UH, THIS IS LEE HEIGHTS, WHICH IF YOU'RE NOT FAMILIAR WITH IT, UM, BARRYMORE IS THE MAJOR NORTH SOUTH STREET THAT GOES PAST THE, UM, THE RAILROAD TRACKS THERE AND EXIT IT. IT, UH, INTERSECTS WITH MAIN RIGHT AT THE GREEN CENTER. SO THIS IS DIRECTLY NORTH OF THIS. UH, THERE ARE ONLY TWO POINTS OF INGRESS OR EGRESS TO THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. UM, ONE IS ON THE NORTHEAST CORNER AT, UH, LINDBERGH RIGHT HERE. AND THEN HERE AT BARRYMORE, SOMEBODY'S PLENTY OF ARROWS. I LIKE THAT. UM, THOSE ARE THE TWO POINTS OF INGRESS AND EGRESS. SO THIS IS COMPLETELY NEIGHBORHOOD. UM, AND IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FOR A MUCH SAFER, MORE, UM, ORGANIZED FLOW OF TRAFFIC, WE ARE REQUESTING TO INSTITUTE, UM, INTERSECTION CONTROL AT MAJORITY AT THESE INTERSECTIONS, ACTUALLY ALL THE INTERSECTIONS. AND DUE TO THE STREET CONFIGURATION, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO CREATE ONE THAT DOESN'T, OR THAT GOES, UM, STOP, GO STOP, GO FOR EACH OF THE INTERSECTIONS CALLED A LEAPFROG. SO THERE ARE A COUPLE INTERSECTIONS WHERE YOU HAVE A STOP STOP, UNFORTUNATELY. UM, BUT THIS IS THE, UH, BEST PLAN THAT WE COULD COME UP WITH FOR, UM, EVEN AND DISTRIBUTED STOP CONTROL. THE, UH, PLAN BEHIND THIS IS TO, WITH Y'ALL'S APPROVAL, IF YOU CHOOSE TO APPROVE IT, UM, WE'LL HAVE MR. DAVIS SIGN A 90 DAY INSTALLATION LETTER BEFORE WE GO TO COUNSEL SO THAT WE CAN, UM, IMPLEMENT AND TEST IT. AND THEN IF IT IS, IF IT, IF IT'S WORKING OUT WELL, IF IT'S WELL RECEIVED, UM, AND IT'S DOING ITS JOB, THEN WE'LL GO TO COUNCIL AND GET, UM, APPROVAL TO, UH, TO RATIFY THESE LOCATIONS AND PUT THEM IN THE ORDINANCE. IF NOT, WE'LL MAKE SOME CHANGES. COME BACK TO THE, TO THE, UM, TO THE LAYOUT AND THEN WE'LL GO TO COUNCIL. IS, DOES THE COMMUNITY KNOW THIS IS COMING? UH, THEY [00:50:01] SHOULD. IT WAS REQUESTED BY COUNCIL MEMBERS. OKAY. DO THEY GET LETTERS SOON OR PROBABLY NOT? NO. UH, I KNOW THAT MY OFFICE DID NOT SEND OUT ANY NOTIFICATION LETTERS OF THIS COMING. IT'S PART OF THE OTHER REASON THIS IS GONNA BE A MAJOR CHANGE. I MEAN, THIS IS THIS MAJOR. YES. YES, IT IS. LIKE STOP ON EVERY CORNER. YES. NOW I HAVE HAD, UM, REQUESTS FROM SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE COMMUNITY FOR THIS AS WELL. APART FROM WHAT COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE ASKED FOR. SO AFTER YOU DO THE INSTALLATION, THE 90 DAY TEST MM-HMM . WILL THEY GO TO CA ARE THEY, DO, DO RESIDENTS HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO TO CITY COUNCIL AND OPPOSE SOME OF THESE OR, UM, UM, WELL WHAT THE, THE GOAL IS THAT, UM, IF THEY HAVE ISSUES OR COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS THAT THEY'LL CONTACT MY OFFICE AND LET ME KNOW. QUESTION. WILL THERE BE A POSTING AT THOSE TWO ENTRIES TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON HOW TO REACH YOU? REALLY? UM, TO BE COMPLETELY, COMPLETELY HONEST WITH YOU, IF YOU WOULD LIKE THAT AND IF THAT WOULD MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD, ABSOLUTELY. WE'LL HAVE THE SIGN SHOP PUT SOMETHING UP. OKAY. I THINK THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. THAT GIVES CITIZENS RATHER THAN RUNNING TO THEIR COUNCILMAN GIVES 'EM A CHANCE TO COME TO ADMINISTRATION FIRST. SORRY, I'M MAKING A NOTE TO DO THAT. THAT'S OKAY. ALL RIGHT. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER'S QUESTIONS? THIS IS A PRETTY BIG CHANGE. I'D LIKE TO MOVE FOR APPROVAL. OKAY. MOVE FOR APPROVAL. DO I HAVE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND. I DON'T KNOW WHO BEAT WHO DOESN'T MATTER. I GOT SECOND. WE'LL GIVE IT THE MITCHELL. ALRIGHT, WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE. AND A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSIONS? HEARING NONE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. OPPOSED? THANK YOU. OKAY. [g. Consider stop control modifications at the intersection of North Road at East Road.] [h. Consider stop control modifications for the intersection of South Road at West Road.] [i. Consider stop control modifications for the intersection of South Road at East Road.] [j. Consider stop control modifications for the intersection of North Road at West Road.] WE DON'T MOVE IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD , BECAUSE YOU COULD WE CONSIDER YOU TRY FIVE GH SLOW DOWN I AND J TOGETHER 'CAUSE THEY'RE ALL I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO. IT WAS ORIGINALLY DESIGNED THAT WAY AND, UM, I WAS ASKED TO SEPARATE TO INTER INDIVIDUAL INTERSECTIONS. WELL, WE'RE GONNA ASK YOU TO RECONNECT THEM IF YOU DID. . I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO, SIR. IT'S THE REBEL IN ME. WHAT CAN I SAY? UM, IT, THESE ARE THE INTERSECTIONS OF NORTH, SOUTH, EAST AND WEST, UM, TO THE EAST OF GARTH, UH, AND NORTH OF CEDAR BAYOU. LYNCHBURG. UH, LAST YEAR WE HAD HAD A REQUEST FROM SEVERAL RESIDENTS IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD AND FROM THE COUNCIL MEMBER REPRESENTING THAT DISTRICT TO, UM, MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO THE EXISTING TWO-WAY STOP INTERSECTIONS FOR HIGHER VISIBILITY AND, UH, AND TO MAKE THEM SAFER. UM, I WENT OUT AND MADE, UH, SOME, UH, FIELD INVESTIGATION, MADE SOME FIELD NOTES AND WE MODIFIED THE INTERSECTIONS AND INCLUDED SOME HIGH VISIBILITY FLAGS ON EACH OF THE STOP SIGNS TO MAKE IT BETTER IN THE HOPES THAT IT WOULD, AND IT DID FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND NOW IT'S GONE BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS, WHICH WAS, UM, ACCORDING TO THE RESIDENTS AND THE COUNCIL MEMBER, UNSAFE. UM, SO WE ARE DOING THIS ON A STEPWISE BASIS. THIS IS THE, UM, THE NEXT STEP AFTER THE HIGHER VISIBILITY AND GEOMETRIC CHANGES TO THE INTERSECTION. SO THE REQUEST IS THAT EACH OF THOSE FOUR INTERSECTIONS THAT THEY BECOME FOUR-WAY STOPS. OKAY. QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS. HEARING NONE. DO I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE? THIS WOULD BE APPROVING 5G, H, I AND J MOVE TO APPROVE. WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? WHO WAS THE SECOND? TRACY? TRACY. TRACY AND I HATE STOP SIGNS AND THAT TELL, AND SHE HATES STOP. SHE HATES STOP SIGNS. SO THIS IS A GOOD ONE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. AYE. OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES. THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU FOLKS. THANK YOU. THIS LEADS [a. Review and consider submitting the annual update on the Strategic Action Plan for the Comprehensive Plan to City Council.] US TO THE SECOND LARGEST ITEM, 16TH OF SIX REPORTS. THIS IS REVIEW AND CONSIDER SUBMITTING THE ANNUAL UPDATE ON A STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE, FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO CITY COUNCIL. KIND OF EXPLAIN THE PIECES TO US SO WE UNDERSTAND HOW THIS KIND OF WORKS. OF COURSE. UH, SO THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN IS REQUIRED TO BE UPDATED ANNUALLY BY THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND APPROVED BY P AND Z. AND THEN CITY COUNCIL, UM, THIS SHOULD BE THE FINAL YEAR. THIS WILL BE DONE WITH OUR CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BACK IN MARCH, THE CITY. UM, UH, SIGNED AN AGREEMENT WITH KIND KEITH COLLABORATIVE TO COMPLETE A NEW COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. OF COURSE, DUE TO COVID, WE'VE KIND OF BEEN DELAYED A BIT HERE, UM, BUT WE'RE OPTIMISTIC. THIS, UM, WILL BE OUR LAST ONE WITH THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BEFORE WE MOVE FORWARD TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 2040. SO THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN IS AN UPDATE OF THE ACTIONS [00:55:01] DESIGNATED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. UM, THEY'RE FOCUSED AROUND FIVE DIFFERENT THEMES. THANK YOU. THEY'RE FOCUSED AROUND FIVE DIFFERENT THEMES, UH, GROWTH, CAPACITY, MOBILITY, LAND USE, ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY, AND QUALITY OF LIFE. UM, THE PLAN IS CREATED WITH THE TEAMWORK OF SEVERAL, UM, CITY DEPARTMENTS. UM, IT COVERS, UH, ACCOMPLISHMENTS FROM THE PAST YEAR AS WELL AS TARGETS FOR THE NEXT YEAR. UM, DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS? I SEE WHERE THE OVERLAY DISTRICT TAKES CARE OF A NUMBER OF THESE. YES, SIR. THAT WAS, AND, AND THIS IS A VERY BRIEF, A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF ALL OF THE DIFFERENT WORK THAT'S BEEN DONE OVER THE YEAR. THANK YOU. I HAVE NO FURTHER COMMENTS. STAFF, I MEAN, UH, COMMISSIONERS. YES. UH, COMMISSIONER, UH, CHAIRMAN IS THAT IN THE PAST WHAT WE'VE DONE IS THAT WE'VE JUST REALLY ASKED YOU QUESTIONS IF, UH, IF YOU HAD ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING ANY SPECIFIC TOPIC OR UNDERLYING SUBSECTION. OTHERWISE WE WEREN'T GONNA GO THROUGH THE WHOLE THING. I DON'T THINK IT'S GONNA BE A BENEFIT TO YOUR TIME. LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR ANNEXATION PIECE, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, THAT'S CORRECT. NEW PLAN. QUESTION. I SEE LIKE A G SEVEN, WHICH MENTIONS DRAINAGE. HAVE THEY CONSIDERED PUTTING TOGETHER A COMPREHENSIVE LOOK AT FUTURE DETENTION NEEDS? PARTICULARLY GOOSE CREEK CEDAR BIO. SO THEY'RE ALREADY, UH, THE CITY HAS ALREADY STARTED A MASTER DRAINAGE PLAN. UM, WE'RE ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH, UM, CONDUCTING THAT PLAN TODAY. OKAY. OKAY. THIS IS, UH, AN APPROVAL ITEM. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? HEARING NONE? UH, DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO SUBMIT, APPROVE SUBMITTING THIS TO CITY COUNCIL. MOVE TO APPROVE. SECOND. I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF MOVING THIS FORWARD, PLEASE SAY AYE. AYE. OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES. SEVEN A. [a. Discuss an amendment to the Baytown 2025 Comprehensive Plan's Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) for properties generally located along Wade Road, north of its intersection with State Highway Spur 330 and South of its intersection with Interstate Highway 10 (IH 10) in Harris County, Texas.] DISCUSS AN AMENDMENT TO THE BAYTOWN 2025 COMPREHENSIVE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN. THE FLUFF FOR PROPERTIES GENERALLY LOCATED ALONG WADE ROAD, NORTH OF ITS INTERSECTION WITH STATE HIGHWAY, UH, SPUR THREE 30 AND SOUTH AND SOUTH OF ITS INTERSECTION WITH, UH, INTERSTATE 10 IN HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS. SO THIS FUTURE LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT OR FLUKE AMENDMENT, UH, IS LIKE YOU SAID, LOCATED A ALONG WADE ROAD BETWEEN THREE 30 AND I 10. UH, MOST OF THE AREA IS DESIGNATED BUSINESS PARK THAT IS A PURPLEY PINK SHADE, UM, ON THIS MAP AND THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR, UM, WHICH IS THE RED, UM, THE MAJORITY OF THIS AREA IS ALSO OUTSIDE OF CITY LIMITS, UM, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE NORTH PORTION, UH, WHICH WAS ANNEXED INTO THE CITY BACK IN 2006. WHERE IS THAT, NATHAN? OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND, AND THIS IS THE SAME SUBJECT TRACK THAT WE WERE DISCUSSING EARLIER WITH THE SUP AND THE ZMA TWO HEAVY INDUSTRIAL. UM, MOST OF THE SUBJECT AREA IS, UH, UNDEVELOPED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE EXISTING UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD. UM, WHICH RUNS PARALLEL TO WADE ROAD. UH, AND THE ADJACENT AREA IS MOSTLY INDUSTRIAL USE AND LOGISTICAL WAREHOUSING, INCLUDING THE POINT 10 LOGISTICS, UM, CENTER AND SOME RESIDENTIAL USE. UM, UH, WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL THE AREA A LITTLE BIT EARLIER. UM, SO NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO WE HAVE TWO PROPOSED FLUKE AMENDMENTS. UM, ALTERNATIVE ONE INVOLVES EXTENDING THE INDUSTRIAL DESIGNATION FROM THREE 30. UM, TWO, A PIPELINE EASEMENT, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 750 FEET, UH, SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 10 ALONG THE EXISTING RAILROAD AND THE LAND OWNED BY UNION PACIFIC. IT ALSO INCLUDES THE APPROXIMATELY APPROXIMATE 136 ACRES THAT WE DISCUSSED EARLIER, UM, FOR THE SEP AND CA. YES. UH, ALTERNATIVE NUMBER TWO INCLUDES THE SAME AREA JUST DESCRIBED IN NUMBER ONE, UM, BUT IT ALSO INCLUDES AN ADDITIONAL 200 FEET ALONG THE EXISTING RAIL LINE. UM, THIS AREA INCLUDES SOME EXISTING INDUSTRIAL USES AS WELL AS SOME RESIDENTIAL USES. UH, BUT THE AREAS OUTSIDE OF OUR CITY LIMITS. SO IT DOES LACK, UH, ZONING CONTROL. ALTERNATIVE NUMBER ONE IS RECOMMENDED. UH, IT WILL EXTEND INDUSTRIAL ALONG THE EXISTING RAIL LINES. UM, AND YOU KNOW, THE SUBJECT TRACK HERE FOR THE SEP AND THE UH, ZMA AMENDMENT. UM, IT IS COMPATIBLE, UH, WITH THE LOGISTICS PARK, WHICH WILL BE TO THE NORTH AND TO THE WEST. TO THE WEST. THERE'S ALSO 150 FOOT DRAINAGE CHANNEL, [01:00:02] UM, TO THE NORTH. THERE'S ALSO GOING TO BE A, UH, A PIPELINE BUFFER. UH, I BELIEVE THAT ONE'S 50 FEET, UH, TO THE SOUTH. UH, WHILE THAT IS WHERE IT IS NEAR, UH, SOME RESIDENTIAL USE, THE SUP CAN ENSURE COMPATIBILITY WITH THOSE USES. UM, IT ALSO WILL MAINTAIN COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR DESIGNATION ALONG WADE ROAD AND THIS WILL SERVE AS A TRANSITIONAL BUFFER BEFORE THE HIGH HIGHER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO THE EAST OF WADE. I'D BE HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS. THIS IS A DISCUSSION ITEM, UH, COMMISSIONERS. SO QUESTIONS, DISCUSSION, SUGGESTIONS. AND JUST AS A REMINDER, THE COMMISSION IS, IS THIS IS HOW WE'VE UM, HISTORICALLY BROUGHT FORTH ANY FLU AMENDMENT CHANGES. SO WE COULD HAVE A DISCUSSION BEFORE ANY SORT OF RECOMMENDATION WAS MADE. YOU'RE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, GO HOME, LOOK AT IT, AND THEN WHAT WILL HAPPEN AT THE NEXT MEETING WHEN WE DO HAVE OUR SECOND PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE SUP AND THE ZMA, UM, WILL ALSO, THIS, THIS ITEM WILL BE INCLUDED IN THAT PACKAGE. SO THEY'LL ALL BE PACKAGED TOGETHER. HOW MUCH OF THAT NATHAN IS THE, UM, PORT 10 PROPERTY? UM, ALL OF WHAT IS SHOWN HERE IS, IS FOR THIS PART RIGHT HERE, THE HI PORTION OR THIS INDUSTRIAL PORTION IS SOLELY THE, THE LOCATION THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT FOR THE PORT 10 SUP AND THE RAILROAD RUNS SOUTH THIS WAY. THE RAIL RUNS IS NORTH AND SOUTH. YEAH. AND THAT, THAT PIECE, THAT, THAT IS, SO THE DIVIDER BETWEEN THAT PROPERTY AND THE RESIDENTIAL ACROSS THE ROAD IS SIMPLY THE ROAD, THE TRACK, THE TRACKS AND THE ROAD. THAT'S CORRECT MA'AM. YES. THE RAILROAD AND TO THE SOUTH TOO. WHAT, WHAT'S THE BUFFER? THAT'S WHERE THEY WERE GONNA PUT THE BURN. THAT'S THE BERM. MM-HMM . THAT'S THE BERM, WHICH WAS SUGGESTED TO QUITE HIGHER. SO WE'RE CONSIDERING A BUSINESS PARK AND ALL THAT RESIDENTIAL. I LIKE THAT THE BUSINESS PARK IS ALREADY EXISTING. THIS IS FOR INDUSTRIAL. OKAY. SO, SO THIS AREA IS ALREADY DESIGNATED, IT'S ALREADY BEEN APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL THAT THIS AREA IS SUITABLE FOR BUSINESS PARK, WHICH WOULD BE, UH, LIGHT INDUSTRIAL OR GENERAL COMMERCIAL. UM, WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR IS JUST TO INCREASE THAT IN THIS DESIGNATED AREA, WHICH IS ALONG THE EXISTING RAIL LINES. AND THEN THIS PROPERTY THAT WILL HAVE THE SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. SO THERE'LL BE CONTROLLED CONDITIONS. QUESTION WILL, WILL WE DO ANY SORT OF NOTIFICATION TO THOSE RESIDENTS TO THE EAST AND SOUTH OF THIS LARGE CHANGE THAT'S COMING? SO, UH, THE NOTICES WILL BE SENT, UH, FOR 300 FEET AROUND THE, UH, THE 136 ACRE ON, ON THE NORTH SIDE. UH, BUT WE DON'T SEND NOTICES FOR FLUTE AMENDMENTS. NOW FOR THE, THE, THE EXISTING HOMES THAT ARE ALONG THE RAIL LINES, THEY HAVE BEEN EXISTING ALONG THE RAIL LINES, UH, RAIL LINES FOR UM, A LONG TIME AT THIS POINT, PROBABLY A FEW DECADES, BUT IT'S BIG CHANGE IN STORY. IT'S BIG CHANGE. NOTHING'S CHANGED. EVERYTHING SOUTH OF OF THAT IS RESIDENTIAL, IS THAT CORRECT? THE NOTICE IS PRESENT, YES. OKAY. BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE A FIRE THERE, YOU'RE GONNA SEE A BIG CHANGE. YES. IT'S EVERYTHING SOUTH OF THAT RESIDENTIAL. IF THERE'S A FIRE THERE, IT'LL BE THERE NOW. SO NOT EVERYTHING IS SOUTH. THEY, THERE'S GONNA BE SOME INDUSTRIAL USES AS WELL AS SOME COMMERCIAL RESIDENTIAL. THEY'RE JUST NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS. CORRECT. BUT THE SPECIAL USE PERMIT AROUND THE 136 ACRES WILL REQUIRE NOTIFICATION AND THEY HAVE BEEN SENT AND THEY HAVE BEEN, SO THERE IS SOME NOTIFICATION THERE. YEAH. CHAIRMAN, THEY WERE NOTIFIED. WE'RE NOT OBLIGATED UNDER STATE LAW TO NOTIFY THESE PROPERTIES THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY LIMITS IN THE COUNTY. BUT WE WENT AHEAD AND NOTIFIED EVERYONE ANYWAY. THAT'S GOOD, GOOD, GOOD. NEIGHBORS ARE GOOD. MM-HMM. AND, AND WHAT'S THE BENEFIT OF HAVING IT IS THAT 100 FEET VERSUS 200 FEET WIDE? SO ALTERNATIVE ONE IS JUST FOR UNION PACIFIC PROPERTY. SO JUST WHERE THERE'S THAT EXISTING RAIL LINE. AND THEN THE AREA THAT'S ASKED FOR THE SUP ALTERNATIVE TWO IS THAT AREA JUST DESCRIBED IN ADDITION TO 200 FEET. UM, THAT'S ADJACENT TO IT ON THE WEST SIDE, WHICH COULD INFRINGE ONE . OKAY. AND WHAT IS THE PURPOSE FOR THAT ADDITIONAL? WELL WE ARE, UH, RECOMMENDING ALTERNATIVE ONE, NOT ALTERNATIVE TWO. OKAY. UM, ALTERNATIVE TWO WOULD PROVIDE MORE FLEXIBILITY, UM, TO ALLOW UH, OTHER INDUSTRIAL USES IN THIS AREA. BUT THERE, THERE IS NO ZONING CONTROL FOR THAT AREA. WHEREAS FOR THE PROPERTY THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TONIGHT, THE 136 ACRES WITH THAT SPECIFIC USE PERMIT, WE DO HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONTROL IT AND ENSURE THERE'S GOOD NEIGHBORS GO TO STRAW. AND SO THIS IS BUSINESS PARK ALREADY? CORRECT? IT INCLUDES LIGHT INDUSTRIAL. CORRECT. SO SKI, COULD IT BE THAT THE ADDITIONAL MIGHT BE NEEDED [01:05:01] DOWN THE LINE? THIS IS ALL BUSINESS PARK? WELL, UM, BUSINESS PARK AND INDUSTRIAL ARE GONNA BE A LITTLE DIFFERENT. SO WITH THE, WITH THE BUSINESS PARK, IF THEY WANTED TO DO AN INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT, A LIGHT INDUSTRIAL LIGHT, YEAH, THEY POSSIBLY COULD WITH THE FLUKE. UM, IF THEY WANTED TO DO SOMETHING HEAVY, UM, LIKE WAS POINTED OUT EARLIER, HEAVY INDUSTRIAL KIND OF OPENS THE, THE DOOR TO A LOT OF DIFFERENT POSSIBILITIES, WHICH IS WHY THE APPLICANT TONIGHT APPLIED WITH A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT WHERE AGAIN, WE CAN HAVE CONTROLLED CONDITIONS. YEAH. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THE SPECIAL USE PERMIT. OKAY. COMMISSIONERS, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? THIS IS AGAIN, A DISCUSSION ITEM. WE WILL BE CONSIDERING IT AT THE NEXT UH, COMMISSIONER'S MEETING. CORRECT. ALRIGHT. THAT BRINGS US TO [a. Present a report regarding action taken by City Council on planning and zoning items.] EIGHT DIRECTOR'S REPORT. ALRIGHT, NATHAN, SO I WANTED TO GIVE YOU GUYS AN UPDATE TO, UH, THE ONE ITEM. OH, SORRY. I HOPE THAT'S BETTER. UM, I WANTED TO GIVE YOU, UH, AN UPDATE TO ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT WENT TO CITY COUNCIL AND, UH, THAT WAS HEARD FOR A ZONING MAP AMENDMENT CHANGE. IF YOU RECALL, OVER A LONG BARCELONA WAY, THERE WAS, UH, APPROXIMATELY 14 LOTS THAT WERE, WAS SUBDIVIDED BACK IN THE EARLY SEVENTIES. UM, NOTHING HAS EVER BEEN BUILT ON THEM. WE HAD A DEVELOPER COME IN INTERESTED IN THE LOTS. HE WANTED TO REPL THE PROPERTIES INTO COMBINING SOME OF THEM TO MAKE NINE UNITS, UM, THERE AND THEN ACTUALLY CHANGE THE, THE ZONING FROM MU TO SF TWO IN ORDER TO BUILD SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED HOMES. UM, UH, ALONG WITH WHAT YOU HAD SAID AND RECOMMENDED TO, UM, CITY COUNCIL, THEY AGREED THEY FELT THAT THE INFILL, UH, PROPERTY WAS WELL RECEIVED AND THEY APPROVED IT. UM, AND AGAIN, UH, WE WOULD LIKE TO ALSO WELCOME OUR, UH, NEWEST MEMBER TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION. I'M SORRY WE DIDN'T GET TO INTRODUCE YOU AT THE BEGINNING, BUT THIS IS MS. HELEN BAROT. TIMS, UM, SHE CAME TO US FROM, UH, HARRIS COUNTY YES. AND HAS A WIDE, UH, OR EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND IN, UH, UM, PUBLIC, UH, ADMINISTRATION AND, UH, ALSO IN DEALING WITH, UH, MATTERS JUST LIKE WE'RE DOING HERE. SO PLEASE WELCOME HER AND, UH, WELCOME. AND WE, WE SURE APPRECIATE YOU COMING OUT AND THANKS. GLAD TO HAVE YOU. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT. THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME. AND IF YOU HAVEN'T REACHED OUT TO, UM, TO SAY, UH, GOODBYE TO MS. UH, MS. FOSTER, PLEASE DO. UM, SO JUST SO YOU KNOW, SHE'S NOT HERE TODAY, BUT HER LAST DAY AT THE CITY IS ON FRIDAY OF THIS WEEK.
