Project Description and Background
The property is located south of Lancaster Avenue along Panola Avenue. The applicant is proposing to change
the zoning from "E" Neighborhood Commercial to "F" General Commercial to allow for automotive related uses.
The current use of the property is legal nonconforming and the applicant would like to bring into conformance,
which will allow the property owner to invest in improving the property and obtain business loans.
The property is currently surrounding by "F" General Commercial zoned properties to the east and west.
Several automotive uses are currently active near the site. This property went through a Council Initiated
Rezoning in 2014 to "E" Neighborhood Commercial.
The Lancaster Corridor is currently being studied for higher density, walkable, mixed -use development. A
modified bus rapid transit route runs along Lancaster with opportunity for full bus rapid transit in the future. .
There are currently two stops within walking distance of the site. The proposed use does not lend itself to high
density mixed use development.

Development Impact Analysis
Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing a zoning change to "F" General Commercial for automotive repair. Surrounding land
consist of commercial suites to the east, automotive sales to west, a large gas well just south, and a Texas
Department of Family Services office across Lancaster Avenue to the north. The site was rezoned by the
Councilmember in 2014 to reduce the intensity of the zoning category to "E" Neighborhood Commercial
The proposed zoning request is not compatible at this location.
Comprehensive Plan Consistency — Eastside
The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Mixed -Use. The requested zoning change is not
consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan policies:
• Promote appropriate infill of old commercial centers (greyfields), and contaminated sites
(brownfields) within developed areas, particularly in the central city.
• Support zoning changes that accommodate multifamily residential development within urban
villages, transit -oriented developments (TOD) and designated growth centers.
According to Land Use and Zoning Classifications within the Comprehensive Plan. Mixed -Use areas should
serve retail, services, office, and entertainment. Although all commercial categories are appropriate, automotive
uses, such as repair run counter to the density, walkability, and mix of uses promoted within this type of
classification. Based on the lack of conformance with the future land use map and policy stated above the
proposed zoning is not consistent (Significant Deviation) with the Comprehensive Plan.
