List the changed or changing conditions in the area or in the City which make this zone change necessary. THIS RE -ZONING IS BEING REQUESTED DUE TO DEMAND FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THIS AREA AND TO HAVE THE ZONING CONFORM TO THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN. 10/10 Page 2 of 7 Justification for the Block Length Waiver Request. for the Waller Tract PD Re -zoning The applicant requests a waiver for the 900' maximum block length requirement for Suburban Commerical Land Use. In order to comply with the UDO, a public street or public way would have to be constructed through this development. The boundary of the block is created by the following roadways, SH 6, Eagle Avenue, Longmire Drive and Bridle Gate Drive. This block is approximately 1,400' in length along the SH 6 frontage. The justification for the waiver request is that Eagle Avenue and Bridle Gate Drive are Collector Streets which have adequate capacity for the existing and future traffic needs in this area. A public street or public way through this tract would primarily only provide access to the SH 6 Feeder Road or Longmire Drive for traffic generated by this development, not any other significant traffic since the development to the west of Longmire Drive is a small residential development that does not provide connectivity to any adjacent tracts and therefore generates very little traffic. The public street or public way requirement for the proposed commercial development can be similarly met by the development by providing private cross access easements and driveways internal to the development and to the adjacent developments where possible as required by the UDO. The internal driveways can adequately address the traffic concerns for this development and the access driveway for the tract from SH 6 Feeder Road must be approved by TXDOT and may require improvements to the Feeder Road pavement. Due to the shape of the tract it would result in the public street or public way being approximately 900' in length, which for a public street would require 20% of the tract be dedicated as public right-of-way while a public way would require approximately 12% of the tract be designated as a public access easement. Either of these requirements would significantly reduce the developable area of the tract. The applicant believes the construction of a public way would encourage "cut through" traffic and increase the risk and liability of the business owners in the development.
