[Planning and Zoning Commission Training Series]
THE WORK SESSION ITEM. 23 DAYS 0006 M THREE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TRAINING SERIES.WELCOME. THANK YOU, CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION. MY NAME IS HALEY ANGEL AND I AM A PLANNING MANAGER HERE AND TODAY WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. SO I KNOW THAT SOME OF YOU ALL ARE PROBABLY WELL VERSED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ITSELF, BUT I DID WHEN I START BACK AT BASICS JUST TO BE SURE WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE. AND SO WE'RE GOING TO START TALKING ABOUT WHAT A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS. IS THE MIC. NOT ON. MAYBE OR CAN YOU? UM COULD YOU GET LEAN A LITTLE A LITTLE IN THAT BETTER? CAN YOU HEAR ME MORE? LET'S SEE. THERE WE GO. OKAY ALL THE WAY IN, UM I MIGHT TRY. ACTUALLY CAN YOU ALL STILL HEAR ME THIS WAY? IS THAT BETTER? OKAY, THEN I'M NOT LEANING FORWARD. UM YEAH, SO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, UM, IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR CITIZENS. RESIDENTS STAKEHOLDERS BUSINESS OWNERS TO CONTRIBUTE TO A LONG TERM VISION OF DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE CITY. AT ITS MOST BASIC LEVEL, THAT'S WHAT IT IS, UM, AND SO I JOKED THAT THIS IS THE THING THAT PLANNERS GO TO SCHOOL FOR, UM, YOU KNOW, THIS PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT REALLY IS A CHANCE TO CONNECT WITH THE COMMUNITY AND HELP THEM CONNECT WITH ONE ANOTHER. AH, BUT I AM.
UM SO WE'RE NOT REQUIRED TO ADOPT ONE AS A CITY? OF COURSE, THERE ARE, YOU KNOW, AND INCREDIBLE REASONS THAT WE WOULD AS FAR AS GUIDING DEVELOPMENT AND THAT ENGAGEMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY, UM AND IF IT IS ADOPTED, ZONING REGULATIONS DO NEED TO BE ADOPTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND WE'LL COME BACK TO THAT AS I GO THROUGH THE PRESENTATION ITSELF. I MEAN, IT DOESN'T LIMIT WHAT CAN BE INCLUDED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. SOME STATES ARE REALLY SPECIFIC AND PRESCRIBED AS TO WHAT YOU CAN AND CANNOT INCLUDE, OR MINIMUM STANDARDS. STATE OF TEXAS IS OPEN SO YOU MIGHT FIND THAT IT ACTUALLY VARIES GREATLY FROM CITY TO CITY AND CATERS TOWARDS WITH THE NEEDS OF THAT COMMUNITY IS AND FINALLY, IT'S IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DOES NOT ESTABLISH ZONING BOUNDARIES OR DISTRICTS. YOU ALL KNOW THAT BECAUSE YOU REVIEW THOSE REQUESTS SEPARATELY WHEN THEY DO COME IN. IN PRACTICE. WHAT THAT MEANS IS, YOU KNOW, COMPREHENSIVE PLANS TYPICALLY ARE GOING TO FOCUS ON LAND, USE TRANSPORTATION AND PUBLIC FACILITIES AT A BASIC MINIMUM.
YOU ALL ARE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH THE LAND USE DIAGRAM. I THINK THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF AS A TYPICAL PART OF A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, BUT THERE ARE MANY OTHER FACTORS THAT SUPPORT AND IMPACT THAT RIGHT. UM, SO AS WE LOOK AT DIFFERENT LAND USES AND DENSITIES AND SO ON AND SO FORTH, OF COURSE THAT'S GOING TO AFFECT OUR TRANSPORTATION. OF COURSE, THAT'S GOING TO AFFECT PUBLIC FACILITIES. UM, AND AS WE TALK THROUGH OUR ELEMENTS OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, YOU'LL SEE REFERENCES TO FISCAL HEALTH, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. SO ON AND SO FORTH. THE CORE. PART OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REALLY, IS THAT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT, SO WE'LL TALK LATER ABOUT THE RELATION TO THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, BUT I DON'T THINK I CAN UNDER EMPHASIZE HOW IMPORTANT AND HOW LARGE THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PIECE CAN BE FOR THESE LARGER UPDATES. UM IT'S OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMMUNITY AND THE COMMUNITY'S RELATIONSHIP WITH ITSELF THAT HELPS FORM THESE GENERAL VISIONS AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES. THAT HELPED UNDERPIN THE DECISIONS THAT ARE ULTIMATELY PUT BEFORE YOU ALL AND CITY COUNCIL. AND THEY ARE LIVING DOCUMENTS. YOU ALL KNOW THAT BY NOW YOU'VE HAD AMENDMENTS COME BEFORE YOU. IT'S INTENDED TO GROW AND CHANGE WITH TIME AS CONDITIONS AND THE CITY ITSELF GROW AND CHANGE. SO TYPICALLY, WE MIGHT SEE AMENDMENTS WHICH ARE GOING TO BE SMALL AND SCALE. YOU WILL HAVE SEEN A HANDFUL OF THOSE AND THEN WE'LL HAVE UPDATES AS WELL. SO AN UPDATE IS GOING TO BE A MOMENT, USUALLY, THE LIFE CYCLE OF A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS GOING TO BE ABOUT 7 TO 10 YEARS BEFORE YOU START NEEDING TO REALLY LOOK AND OPEN UP THE DOOR AND SAY WHAT PIECES OF THIS NEED TO BE COMPLETELY AMENDED OR CHANGED. UM, AND SO THE MOST RECENTLY ADOPTED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN BACK IN 2018 WAS TRULY AN UPDATE THAT FULL SCALE RELOOK AT ALL OF THOSE ELEMENTS. TALKING ABOUT
[00:05:01]
THE RELATIONSHIP SHIP TO THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS AND WHAT YOU ALL DO, UM AGAIN. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. REALLY, UH FOCUSES ON THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT TO OUTLINE THOSE PRINCIPLES AND VISIONS. AND THAT ULTIMATELY HELPS SUPPORT YOUR DECISIONS AT THE ZONING STAGE. AND HOW YOU EVALUATE EACH OF THOSE REQUESTS THAT COME BEFORE YOU. YOU ALL ARE WELL AWARE THAT A ZONING CASES MUCH MORE TECHNICAL IN DETAILED THAN A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WOULD BE AND THE IDEA IS THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO USE THOSE VISUALLY GUIDING PRINCIPLES WHICH, YOU KNOW, HAVE THE BACKING OF PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT TO HELP INFORM SOME OF THOSE DECISIONS. OF COURSE, AS WE GO FURTHER DOWN THAT FLOW CHART BY THE TIME YOU GET TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND BUILDING PROCESS, YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE INCREDIBLY TECHNICAL DECISIONS. BUT AGAIN, THE IDEA IS THAT WE'RE ABLE TO REFERENCE BACK TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AS ANOTHER WAY THAT WE'RE INCORPORATING THE PUBLIC AT EACH OF THESE STAGES. SPEAKING TO OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ITSELF. I'M VISUAL. AND SO I KEEP SAYING PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT AND I REALLY WANT TO EMPHASIZE WHAT THAT CAN LOOK LIKE. SO THIS IS AN IMAGE FROM OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. YOU CAN SEE. NOT ONLY ARE THERE DIAGRAMS UP THERE THAT FOLKS ARE INTERACTING WITH, BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT THE CHANCE FOR THE COMMUNITY TO INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER AS THEY'RE TALKING THROUGH AND SORTING THROUGH THESE QUESTIONS THAT ARE PUT BEFORE THEM. AS THEY'RE LOOKING AT LAND USE DIAGRAMS, MAYBE TRANSPORTATION DIAGRAMS, SO ON AND SO FORTH. THE CREATION OF OUR PLAN. IT TOOK ABOUT THREE YEARS TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE IT WAS OFFICIALLY ADOPTED IN 2018, AND THERE WERE MANY PIECES THAT WENT INTO THAT. SO FOR THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT SIDE OF LISTED A FEW HAIR ON THE SCREEN OF THE TYPES OF PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT, BUT THAT IS NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST. SO THERE'S ALSO YOU KNOW THE ONLINE SURVEYS AS WELL AS, UM, YOU KNOW, JUST GENERAL EVENTS THAT STAFF OR OTHER FOLKS WORKING ON THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. MAY HAVE ATTENDED, LIKE OCTOBERFEST, UM AND SO YOU'LL SEE THAT THERE ARE PLENTY OF COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS AND OPEN HOUSES. PART OF THE INTENT OF THAT IS TO CREATE A FEEDBACK CYCLE, SO WE ATTEND ONE MEETING AND PRESENT INFORMATION, GET FEEDBACK, AND THEN THE TEAM STEPS AWAY AND SAYS, OKAY, LET'S WORK WITH THAT. AND THEN THEY GO BACK OUT TO THE COMMUNITY AND SAY, DID WE GET THIS RIGHT? WE THOUGHT WE HEARD THIS. WE THINK THAT TRANSLATES TO THIS DOES THAT STILL MAKES SENSE? AND IS THAT IN ACCORDANCE WITH WHAT YOU EXPECTED? ON THE RIGHT. I'VE GOT ANOTHER SET OF DIFFERENT COMPONENTS THAT WENT INTO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ON THE DATA SIDE. SO YOU'RE YOU'LL NOTICE ON OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WE DO HAVE A MARKET SHARE ANALYSIS AND PART OF THE GOAL WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS MAKING SURE THAT VISION WE SET OUT WITH THE COMMUNITY IS GROUNDED. IN REALITY. WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO EXECUTE ON THE PLAN THAT WE SET OUT AND SO MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE MARKET WHEN WE'RE SETTING OUT THOSE LAND USES IS A CRITICAL PART OF THAT. UM AND YOU'LL SEE, YOU KNOW, WE'VE GOT A TRAFFIC DEMAND ANALYSIS REVIEW OF PUBLIC SERVICES AND SO THAT OCCURS BOTH AT THE BEGINNING AND DURING THE PLAN. WE WANT THE PUBLIC TO HAVE SOME OF THAT INFORMATION AS WELL AS THEY'RE WORKING THROUGH THESE DECISIONS THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE TO MAKE. WE WANT THAT INFORMATION TO BE AVAILABLE TO THEM AS WELL. AS I MENTIONED. THE PLAN WAS EVENTUALLY ADOPTED AFTER ALL OF THAT HARD WORK IN 2018, IT DID ACTUALLY WANT TO STATEWIDE AWARD FROM OUR PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION, AND THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW MINOR AMENDMENTS AGAIN JUST TO KEEP UP WITH EITHER ZONING CASES CHANGES TO THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK THAT HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN CONSTRUCTED SO ON AND SO FORTH. I DO WANT TO TAKE SOME TIME TO TALK ABOUT WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE IN THE WORK THAT YOU DO MOST COMMONLY FOR ZONING CASES, SO I'M GOING TO PULL BACK THE CURTAIN AND LIKE YOU SEE HOW STAFF REVIEWS REQUESTS AS THEY COME ACROSS THE TABLE FOR ZONING CASES, AND THEN, UM, YOU KNOW, I'LL MAKE SEVERAL REFERENCES IN HERE. BUT AS YOU ALL KNOW, STEPH ALWAYS SUMMARIZES THIS INFORMATION IN YOUR STAFF REPORTS. CERTAINLY NOT AN EXPECTATION THAT YOU'RE CRACKING OPEN, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO LOOK AT EVERY SINGLE CASE WILL BE SURE TO SUMMARIZE EVERYTHING FOR YOU. THE MOST FREQUENTLY USED SECTIONS WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ZONING CASES ARE GOING TO BE THE INTRODUCTION WHERE WE LAY OUT THAT VISION AND THOSE PRINCIPLES. WE'RE GOING TO FOCUS ON LAND USE AND DEVELOPMENT. THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THE ACTUAL LAND USE DIAGRAM. YOU'RE GOING TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT PLACE TYPES, WHICH I'LL EXPLAIN IN A SECOND. AS WELL AS CITY CITY WIDE DECISION MAKING CRITERIA ANOTHER WAY THAT WE EVALUATE THOSE REQUESTS. MOBILITY ALSO IMPORTANT. WE TALK ABOUT THE MASTER THOROUGHFARE PLAN. THAT'S WHAT YOU ALSO, ALMOST RECENTLY WE'RE GOING TO REFERENCE THAT SECTION. AND THEN THE INDIVIDUAL DISTRICT STRATEGY , SO EACH DISTRICT HAS ITS OWN CHARACTER HAS ITS OWN AMENITIES HAS ITS OWN DEFINING FEATURES, AND IT'S EXPECTED DEVELOPMENT PATTERN, SO WE WANT TO READ MORE ABOUT THAT AND UNDERSTAND IT. FOR EXAMPLE, SAKE, I TOOK A SECTION OF PROPERTY THAT'S ALREADY BUILT OUT NEARBY US OFF OF 75. AND SO I SAID, WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE TO REVIEW A ZONING[00:10:04]
REQUEST THAT CAME THROUGH IN THE HOLLOW DISTRICT IN A COMMERCIAL CENTER PLACE TYPE? SO CONTEXT AGAIN. I EXPLAINED WHAT DISTRICT WAS THAT THAT GEOGRAPHIC AREA OF LAND THAT HAS DEFINING FEATURES? AND THEN A PLACE TYPE IS A LITTLE BIT OF A COMBINATION OF L E N D USE AS WELL AS A DEVELOPMENT PATTERN. SO MOST COMPREHENSIVE PLANS, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A STRICT OUTLINE OF LAND USES. YOU MAY SEE RETAIL AND THEN INDUSTRIAL AND OFFICE. BUT AS YOU ALL PROBABLY KNOW, A LOT OF TIMES DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T EXIST ON THOSE LAND USE LINES. SO STRICTLY SO WHAT THE PLACE TYPE DOES IS IT ALSO INCORPORATES SOME OF THOSE DEFINING FEATURES THAT WE MIGHT FIND IN A DEVELOPMENT. CERTAINLY INCLUDES SOME LAND USE. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE IDENTIFYING THOSE PRIMARY LAND USES. UM BUT IT'S INCORPORATING BOTH OF THOSE TO GIVE US A MORE FLEXIBLE BUT ALSO MORE ACCURATE PICTURE OF WHAT WE ANTICIPATE IN THOSE AREAS. SO I'M GOING TO START BY LOOKING AT THE PREFERRED SCENARIO TO FIGURE OUT WHAT MY DISTRICT IS. I'M GOING TO FLIP TO THE LAND USE DIAGRAM TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PLACE TYPE FOR THAT AREA IS. WE'RE GOING TO REFERENCE THE INDIVIDUAL DISTRICT STRATEGY. AND SO I'VE TAKEN A FEW IMAGES FOR YOU. HERE YOU CAN SEE ON THE LEFT. THE INDIVIDUAL STRATEGY JUST TOOK THE TITLE PAGE. YOU KNOW, AND IN THIS CASE, IT DOES SAY THAT THE OAK HOLLOW DISTRICT HAS NON RESIDENTIAL AND EMPLOYMENT HEAVY USES THAT WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THAT AREA. AND SO THAT GIVES US SOME INFORMATION A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT WE WOULD EXPECT. THERE'S A WHOLE STRATEGY SECTION IN THERE AS WELL THAT WE READ IN REFERENCE. THE PLACE TYPE AGAIN. YOU CAN SEE THOSE IDENTIFYING FEATURE, SO IT'S NOT JUST THAT WE'RE IDENTIFYING BIG BOX STORES OR MULTI TENANT COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES WERE ALSO IDENTIFYING THAT IT'S NEAR MAJOR THOROUGHFARES. THERE'S GOING TO BE LARGE CLUSTERS OF COMMERCIAL AGAIN SPEAKING TO THAT BUILDING FORM A LITTLE BIT. AND SO WHEN WE GET A STUNNING REQUEST, WE'RE GONNA READ THROUGH THESE THINGS AND TRY TO UNDERSTAND HOW THAT REQUEST ALIGNS WITH BOTH OF THOSE PIECES. THE NEXT STEP, OF COURSE SYSTEM TO GO TO THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE. AND SO I'VE PICKED TWO ZONING DISTRICTS C TWO AND C THREE, AND YOU CAN SEE THERE THAT THAT LAST SENTENCE IN THE PURPOSE ACTUALLY OUTLINES, WHICH PLACE TYPES THAT ZONING DISTRICT MIGHT BE IN GENERAL CONFORMANCE WITH UM. YOU NOTICE IT'S NOT AS STRICT AS A 1 TO 1 DEFINITION. IT'S NOT EVERY COMMERCIAL CENTER HAS ONE SPECIFIC ZONING DISTRICT.THERE'S OBVIOUSLY SOME INTENSITY AND VARIATION THROUGHOUT THAT COMMERCIAL CENTER PLACE TYPE DESIGNATION. SO IN ADDITION TO READING THROUGH THE INDIVIDUAL DISTRICT STRATEGY AND THE PLACE TYPE WHEN PNC AND STAFF ARE TASKED WITH REVIEWING SOMETHING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WE'RE GONNA WANT TO CONSIDER INTENSITY AND HAVE IT ALL ALIGNS. OF COURSE YOU STILL HAVE YOUR OTHER STANDARD, UH, CRITERIA THAT WE WOULD WANT TO THINK ABOUT SO ADJACENT LAND USES. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CANNOT ANTICIPATE ANYTHING OR EVERYTHING. YOU KNOW IT'S A IT'S A LARGE PLANT SET OUT FOR A LARGE TIMEFRAME. AND SO THERE HAS TO BE A LITTLE BIT OF CONSIDERATION FOR EXISTING OR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS. AND IN THAT VEIN, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ISN'T GOING TO GET EVERYTHING RIGHT RIGHT OFF THE BAT, RIGHT? WE'RE GOING TO DO A PRETTY GOOD JOB, BUT PERHAPS A NEW PRODUCT TYPE INNARDS THE MARKET. UH YOU KNOW, THINGS CHANGE WITH TIME. WE DO ALSO HAVE THE CITY WIDE DECISION MAKING CRITERIA. AND SO I PUT THAT UP HERE, AND I KNOW THAT YOU ALL PROBABLY SEEN THAT IN YOUR REPORTS BEFORE. AND SO THE IDEA IS KNOWING THAT STATE LAW TELLS US THAT ZONING DECISIONS DO HAVE TO BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WE WANT TO BE SURE THAT THE PARAMETERS THAT WE'RE REVIEWING BY ALSO ALLOW A LITTLE BIT OF FLEXIBILITY TO CAPTURE THOSE CHANGES THAT MIGHT NEED TO HAPPEN. BUT IT STILL GIVES US SOME PRETTY STRICT PARAMETERS TO REVIEW THAT REQUEST BY SO WE CAN ENSURE SOME CONSISTENCY. AND SO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DOES SAY THAT PROVIDED THAT A REQUEST IS IN GENERAL OR GENERALLY ALIGNS WITH MOST OF THE CRITERIA THAT YOU SEE HERE ON THE SCREEN THAT IT WOULD BE DEEMED AND CONFORMANCE WITH THE FUTURE LAND. USE A MAP.
SO THIS IS A GREAT TOOL AND AGAIN. THIS IS ONE WHERE IF IT IS BEING USED STAFF IS GOING TO BE SURE TO INCLUDE THAT FOR YOU IN THE REPORT ITSELF. THAT WAS WHAT I WANTED TO COVER TONIGHT.
I THINK I WANT A LITTLE QUICKER THAN I ANTICIPATED. UM, BUT I'M VERY HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE EITHER ABOUT THE PROCESS OF ACTUALLY DEVELOPING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND UNDERSTANDING ALL THAT GOES INTO THAT OR QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW IT PERTAINS TO SOME OF THE ZONING CASES, JUST GENERALLY IN PROCESS. HAVE A QUESTION. IS THERE AN INTENT THAT THIS PLAN B. UM EVERGREEN IS THEIR UPDATE OR REVISION SCHEDULE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. SO WE LOOK AT A FEW DIFFERENT FACTORS, I WOULD SAY, CERTAINLY WITH THE UPDATE TO THE
[00:15:01]
MASTER THOROUGHFARE PLAN TO INCORPORATE THE NEW 380 CORRIDOR THAT WAS FINALIZED BY TEXT DOT WE DO HAVE AN INTENT TO GO BACK FOR AN AMENDMENT TO GO AHEAD AND REVIEW THE SURROUNDING LAND USES ALONG THAT NEW CORRIDOR. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ACTUALLY ANTICIPATED THIS AND PROVIDED ALTERNATIVE SCENARIOS, DEPENDING ON THE ALIGNMENT. UM SO A LOT OF WORK WAS DONE FOR US. I WOULD EXPECT THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WITH THAT LEVEL OF A CHANGE. UH THAT BEING SAID, THAT'S NOT A FULL UPDATE. LIKE WHAT WE SAW IN 2018. WHAT WE REVIEW IS STAFF IS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PLAN ITSELF. UM SO FOR FINDING THAT, GENERALLY SPEAKING ARE PLACED TYPES AND DISTRICTS ARE STILL SERVING US. THAT'S A GOOD INDICATION THAT WE'RE GONNA WANT TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD WITH A PLAN. THAT SAID. WE ALWAYS REVIEW YOU KNOW, ARE THERE ELEMENTS THAT MAYBE NEED TO BE ADDED, UM OR OR ANY OF THOSE KIND OF COMPONENTS WILL CONTINUE TO REVIEW THAT AS WELL. UM SO MINOR AMENDMENT IN TERMS OF MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE UP TO DATE WITH THE 380 CORRIDOR? YES DEFINITELY THAT IS UNDERWAY AND I WOULD EXPECT THAT WE'LL SEE THAT THIS COMING YEAR. BUT THAT LARGER UPDATE. WE'RE STILL AT FIVE YEARS, SO WE'VE GOT SOME TIME TO DETERMINE HOW EFFECTIVE THE PLANET HAS BEEN. AND I WOULDN'T EXPECT TO SEE ANYTHING YOU KNOW UNTIL WE HIT THAT 7 TO 10 YEAR MARK THANK YOU. I HAVE A QUESTION. WHAT TYPES OF BUSINESSES FALL INTO THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT BECAUSE I KNOW THERE'S ONE ON THE WEST SIDE OF NORTH OF 75. AND SO WHAT ? WHAT DIFFERENT TYPES OF THINGS OR LOOK FOR YEAH. UM, SO I WOULD SAY FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT. AS FAR AS SPECIFICS GO , IT'S GOING TO DEPEND A LITTLE BIT, SO WE ARE GOING TO TARGET CERTAIN THINGS IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ITSELF, AND I CAN PULL THAT UP REALLY QUICK. BUT ULTIMATELY IT IS GOING TO DEPEND ON THE ZONING THAT GOES THROUGH. UM WHAT WE SEE. SO ENTERTAINMENT CENTER IS REALLY GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON, UM DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE LARGE SCALE MASTER PLANS WITH DESTINATION RETAIL, RESTAURANT, EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND COMMERCIAL USES, AND THERE IS SOME ANTICIPATION THAT RESIDENTS RESIDENTIAL USES WOULD SUPPORT THOSE DESTINATION DEVELOPMENTS. UM. SO VERY GENERALLY SPEAKING, WITHOUT SPEAKING TO A SPECIFIC PIECE OF LAND. THAT'S WHAT WE WOULD ANTICIPATE FOR AN ENTERTAINMENT CENTER. UM WHEN IT ACTUALLY COMES TO TIME OF A ZONING REQUEST, THAT'S WHEN YOU WOULD GET INTO THE SPECIFICS OF, YOU KNOW OF CORRESPONDING STONING DISTRICT AS WELL AS USES WITHIN THAT ZONING DISTRICT. DID THAT HELP? SO BASICALLY, MCDONALD'S IS AN ENTERTAINMENT CENTER. SO I AND SO THIS IS THIS IS SOME OF THE THINGS THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO CONSIDER. RIGHT. SO OUR UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE WAS ADOPTED AFTER THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, SO THE IDEA IS THAT WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE WHAT WE LEARNED FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND APPLY THAT TO OUR DEVELOPMENT CODE. THERE'S GONNA BE SOME NUANCES TO WHAT THOSE DIFFERENT ZONING DESIGNATIONS ACTUALLY ALLOW PARTIALLY USES PARTIALLY BUILDING FORM. UM AND SO WITHOUT KNOWING A SPECIFIC SITE. IT'S A GREAT JOB, AND I WOULD SAY THE LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT IS YES. UM AND THAT COULD BE IN A SUPPORTIVE FORM FOR A LARGER COMMERCIAL CORNER. I WOULD LOOK AT HARDEN AND 380, RIGHT. WE HAVE A WIDE VARIETY OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF RESTAURANTS AND EATERIES. BUT THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS MORE ASPIRATIONAL, AND IT DOES INCLUDE SORT OF THAT WIDE NEXT NET OF COMMERCIAL AND ENTERTAINMENT DESTINATION USES. BUT WE CANNOT GO DOWN TO THAT LEVEL OF SPECIFICITY TO SAY WE DON'T WANT DRIVE THROUGHS WITH RETAIL OR DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANTS IN THAT ENTERTAINMENT CENTER PLACE TYPE. UM BECAUSE OUR ZONING IS NOT THAT SPECIFIC, RIGHT? OUR ZONING IS MORE ON THOSE BROAD COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICTS, AND WE HAVE TO BE OKAY KNOWING THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME EVAN FLOW AND SOME OF THOSE SPECIFIC USERS THAT COME INTO THOSE COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICTS. SO WHEN WE LOOK AT ALIGNING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WE'RE ALIGNING IT WITH A ZONING DISTRICT SO THAT ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT OR ENTERTAINMENT PLACE TYPE WOULD MORE LIKELY ALIGNED WITH THAT C THREE REGIONAL COMMERCIAL ZONING DISTRICT THAT ALLOWS FOR A MUCH WIDER RANGE OF COMMERCIAL USES. THAT COULD INCLUDE MCDONALD'S, BUT IT COULD ALSO INCLUDE A TOP GOLF OR MOVIE THEATER. JENNIFER THANK YOU, HALEY. NEAR THE QUESTIONS ANYONE . HALEY IN YOUR REPORT ON PAGE THREE. YOU TALK ABOUT IT, NOT.THE COMPLAINT IS NOT A ZONING MAYOR, BUT I THINK THAT'S AN IMPORTANT FEATURE. OR THING TO POINT OUT THAT THIS IS A GUIDELINE IS A LIVING DOCUMENT. IT'S NOT A ZONING MAP AND TO LOOK AT THIS HARDENED FAST WOULD MAYBE THERE'S A BETTER WAY TO LOOK AT IT. SO I APPRECIATE YOU PUTTING THAT IN YOUR REPORT. BECAUSE IT'S TRUE. IT'S A IT'S A GUIDELINE. YEAH, THAT'S CORRECT.
[00:20:05]
