Commissioner Horlen moved to amend the original motion to include the three-year time limit, along with the original conditions. Commissioner Mooney seconded this amendment. Chairman Rife called for the vote and the motion as amended to approve the use permit passed unopposed 6-0. AGENDA ITEM NO. 7: Public hearing and consideration of a Rezoning of approximately 15.15 acres located at 819-903 Krenek Tap Road from R-1 Single Family Residential to R-5 Apartment Medium Density. (00-19) Staff Planner Anderson presented the staff report and stated that the applicant is bringing this request forward in order to begin preparing the property for development as an apartment complex. The request will increase the potential residential density to 24 dwelling units per acre. The subject property is not platted, thus a preliminary and final plat will be submitted upon rezoning approval. The Land Use Plan reflects the tract and the property to the west toward Texas Avenue as medium density single family. However, in the last few years, the development trend for the area bound by Southwest Parkway East and Krenek Tap Road has been to infill in the form of higher density residential, such as duplexes, townhomes, and apartments. These changes in the development pattern of the area would justify rezoning despite the Land Use Plan designation. A vacant 8.973 acre tract is locate southwest of the subject property across the future Dartmouth extension that is currently zoned R-3. The subject abuts the Heritage duplex plat and the Southwest Crossing townhomes to the north. The tract is in close proximity to the R-5 medium density apartments of Dartmouth Addition and Windsor Point. It is unlikely that the subject tract will develop as single family. The subject property is located adjacent to the forthcoming Dartmouth Drive extension. The extension is currently under design and construction is scheduled to begin in June 2000 with an estimated completion date of January 2001. Dartmouth is classified as a minor arterial on the Thoroughfare Plan, the same as Harvey Road and Holleman Drive. Krenek Tap Road is classified as a minor collector. Due to the minor collector classification of Krenek Tap, any proposed development would need to take primary access from the higher designated Dartmouth extension. Staff recommended approval of the rezoning. Chairman Rife opened the public hearing. Mr. Bill Dahlstrom, representative of JPI Student Housing (applicant) explained that the intent is to develop a high quality of student housing. He felt the use was compatible with existing and proposed property uses surrounding this tract. He said that he concurred with all of the staff report comments. Mr. Thomas Madison, owner of adjacent property, said that he was confused with the zoning classifications of his and his family's property in this area. He said that the land use plan shows mixed use for this area but he thought it was residential Senior Planner McCully explained that the Land Use Plan does not actually zone the property, it is more or less used for determining compatible uses for future developments. Chairman Rife closed the public hearing.
