The Public Hearing was closed at 7:13 p.m. A motion was made by Commissioner Blanscet, seconded by Chairwoman Patterson-Herndon to recommend approval of the zoning request.

Conduct a Public Hearing/Consider/Discuss/Action on a request to rezone 18.8± acres located at the northwest corner of N. Powell Parkway and Rosamond Parkway from Planned Development (Ord. No. 797-2018) to Planned Development to allow for a nonresidential and multiple-family residence development with modified development standards. The Public Hearing was opened at 7:16 p.m. Commissioner Hermann advised the Commission that he needed to recuse himself from the Public Hearing and Commission vote due to a conflict of interest. Mrs. Tittle introduced the item. The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to Planned Development to allow for a nonresidential and multiple-family residential development with modified development standards. The applicant, Britton Church, provided a brief presentation regarding the zoning request. Commissioner Nylec asked if the rendering provided in the applicant’s presentation was going to be the look of the finished product here in Anna. Mr. Church explained that the picture used for his slideshow presentation is a picture of the finished product at another Texas location his company worked on. He used it as a reference to show what they are looking to do here. Commissioner Walden expressed her concern for the applicant’s request to reduce the one-bedroom unit parking down to one parking space per unit. Commissioner Walden provided the example of a couple that shares a one-bedroom unit, but both have vehicles. The concern is that the applicant is already under parking the development. Mr. Church explained that they had run the numbers based on their other projects, provided that they are around 92% occupied. Mr. Church advised that would give them an 8% buffer. He also explained that the parking study that is done is based on parking distribution per building. Commissioner Walden explained that she is a fan of compactors and a fan of valet trash service but wanted to know what the valet service would do with the daily trash if the compactor goes down for any reason. Mr. Church advised that he has never had that issue come up but if it did in the future, they would have to address it from an operations standpoint. Commissioner Walden expressed concerns with visibility, safety, and traffic concerns with the applicant’s reduced setback requests. Mr. Church explained that he would be responsible to building the two northern lanes of Rosamond with his development which would help with traffic concerns. Mr. Church said they could look into increasing the landscape buffer. Commissioner Walden also expressed concerns for the adjacent residential subdivision and that the height of the apartments would still have the ability to look over into neighboring residences. Page 5 of 7 Commissioner Nylec asked the applicant if they manage the apartments as well. Mr. Church advised that they have third party management companies that manage the apartment complexes. Commissioner Blanscet explained to the applicant that he feels a much better use can be utilized at this location with it being a major intersection in the future. Commissioner Blanscet asked the applicant why this couldn’t be more of a commercial/retail type development. Mr. Church explained that the pad site layout and setbacks would create a situation where they wouldn’t have enough parking given the unique curvature of the property itself. Commissioner Blanscet asked what the rent cost would be for the apartments. Mr. Church said it depends on the market. A rough estimate would be $1.75 / $1.85 a foot. Commissioner Blanscet asked how many of the apartments were going to be Section 8 housing. Mr. Church responded with none of them. Commissioner Blanscet asked city staff what the plan was for putting a stop light at the intersection of Rosamond and N. Powell. Interim Assistant City Manager, Greg Peters, explained to the Commission that the city has done traffic studies and unfortunately the numbers did not meet TXDOT’s requirements to warrant a light. Mr. Peters then advised that with the recent additional homes built in the neighboring subdivision of Shadowbend and school back in session, he is confident that with another traffic study, they can get it approved through TXDOT. Chairwoman Patterson-Herndon asked if the commercial component would share with the apartments in having the one trash compactor. Mr. Church explained that the commercial component would have their own dumpsters for their site. The Public Hearing was closed at 7:51 p.m. Commissioner Nylec asked how this would set precedence on future requests and development within C-2 zoning if they voted to approve the request. Ms. Mecke explained that the applicant’s requests were specifically for their development. A motion was made by Commissioner Blanscet, seconded by Commissioner Clemens to recommend denial of the zoning request. The motion passed with a 6-1 vote. Commissioner Nylec voted to deny the motion. 31. Consider/Discuss/Action on the Rosamond Village, Block A, Lot 1-2. Concept Plan. Mrs. Tittle introduced the item. The applicant is requesting approval of a Concept Plan that is associated with the zoning request, Item No. 30.

The Public Hearing was opened at 7:55 p.m. Ms. Mecke introduced the item. The request is to repeal and replace the current Zoning Ordinance. Ms. Mecke gave a little background history of the city’s current Zoning Ordinance and introduced the third- party representatives from Freese & Nichols who have been working with staff to draft the city’s newly proposed Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Daniel Harrison with Freese & Nichols gave a brief presentation to explain the changes that have been made to the city’s Zoning Ordinance. The Public Hearing was closed at 8:19 p.m. A motion was made by Commissioner Walden, seconded by Commissioner Martin to recommend approval on the request to repeal and replace the Zoning Ordinance.

The Public Hearing was opened at 8:20 p.m. Mrs. Tittle introduced the item. The applicant is requesting to rezone two vacant parcels to the Downtown Zoning District in order to allow for a future Health Club development. Commissioner Hermann asked if there was a Site Plan associated with the request. Mrs. Tittle advised not at this time because the applicant is still working on one. David LaBlanc, representative from First Anna Church, filled out a speaker card indicating that he would like to speak in opposition to the zoning request. When Mr. LaBlanc’s name was called to the podium he advised that he no longer wished to speak in opposition.
