Staff Recommendation: Denial Background: The applicant is requesting a zoning change from "K" Heavy Industrial and PD 403 to "D" High Density Multifamily for the development of future multifamily uses. The property is located on the south side of Double eagle Boulevard to the east of FM 156, a Commercial Connector on the Master Thoroughfare Plan. The site is located within the Alliance Airport Industrial Growth Center and is just outside of the Alliance Airport Overlay. While "D" zoning may be able to act as a buffer between the surrounding industrial zoning and existing neighborhoods, the 2017 Economic Development Plan and 202 Comprehensive Plan have stated the importance of maintaining existing industrial zoning and promoting the protection of such areas. This case was continued at the July Zoning Commission meeting to allow the applicant to reach out the nearby neighborhoods. At this time no update has been provided.
