Fitch Pkwy generally located near the northwest corner of Highway 6 and William D. Fitch Pkwy. from A-O, Agricultural Open, to C-1, General Commercial. Applicant: Joe Schultz, engineer for the owner Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the rezoning. Item Summary: This item is for consideration of a rezoning for a vacant tract of land on the west side of SH 6 and north of William D. Fitch Parkway. The subject property is part of a larger tract of approximately 350 acres that was rezoned in April 2001. At that time, this portion of the tract was rezoned A-O, Agricultural Open, because it was the future alignment of Arrington Road, a major collector on the City's Thoroughfare Plan. Due to Texas Department of Transportation restrictions for access on William D. Fitch Parkway, the Thoroughfare Plan was amended in February 2003 to realign Arrington Road to the west. The subject property is the remaining portion of land between two C-1 districts that resulted from the realignment. Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The subject property is shown as Regional Retail on the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan, and has approximately 144 feet of frontage on William D. Fitch Parkway, a Freeway on the Thoroughfare Plan. The adjacent portions of the tract are also designated as Regional Retail. Item Background: The subject property was annexed in October 1983. It was part of an approved Master Development Plan in May 1997 and amended in December 1998, each time shown as land reserved for a future roadway. As part of approximately 350-acre area, the property was rezoned from C-1 to A-O on April 12, 2001. Related Advisory Board Recommendations: NA Commission Action Options: The Commission acts as a recommending body on the question of rezoning, which will be ultimately decided by City Council. The Commission options are: 1. Recommend approval of rezoning as submitted; 2. Recommend denial; 3. Table indefinitely; or, 4. Defer action to a specified date. INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES Water: There is an existing 24" water main on the north side of SH 40. Water will need to be provided to all subdivided lots. Sewer: There is an existing 12" sanitary sewer main at the rear of the proposed rezoned area. Sanitary sewer will need to be provided to all subdivided lots. Streets: The alignment of Arrington Road (Major Collector) has been changed on the Thoroughfare Plan which has necessitated this rezoning. Off-site Easements: Will be determined with platting. Drainage: There is an existing regional detention facility. The specifics for the subject tract will be determined through the platting process. Flood Plain: None on the proposed rezone property. Oversize request: None at this time. The City has a Capital Improvement Project to construct Arrington Road. Impact Fees: The subject area is within sewer impact fee area 97-01. The amount of the fee will be determined and assessed at the time of building permit.
