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.

Development Impact Analysis:
1. Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing to change the zoning to "D" for a multifamily development.
Surrounding uses consist of single family to the north and east and undeveloped industrial land to
the south and west.
The proposed use is compatible with surrounding uses.
2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Far North
The 2020 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Industrial Growth Center. The
proposed use does not meet the below policies within the following Comprehensive Plan:
Locate large industrial uses along freight rail lines, highways, or airports within industrial
growth centers and other appropriate locations.
Promote industrial development within the Meacham, Alliance, and Alliance Gateway East
Industrial Growth Centers.
Promote commercial and industrial development near Alliance Airport, BNSF rail yards, and
Texas Motor Speedway that would not be adversely affected by noise
Based on lack of conformance with the policies stated above, as well as the future land use
designation, the proposed zoning is not consistent (Significant Deviation) with the
Comprehensive Plan.
3. Economic Development Plan
The 2017 Economic Development Strategic Plan identified a vision, goals, and strategies in order
to facilitate the success and growth of the City of Fort Worth. The below strategies apply to this
project:
INITIATIVE 1.3. BUSINESS RETENTION & EXPANSION (BRE)
1.3.3. Protect industrial areas from encroachment. Through zoning, work with CFW Planning
Department to ensure major current and future employment nodes and districts are protected
from incompatible development and land uses.
1.3.3.2. Ensure protection for other significant industrial districts with concentrations of
manufacturing, transportation, and warehousing businesses that generate heavy truck traffic.
