Area Zoning Map with 300 ft. Notification Area 7. Area Map 8. Future Land Use Map 9. Aerial Photograph Project Description and Background The proposed development is located within the W. 7th Urban Village. High density mixed uses are encouraged within these areas in order to take advantage of proximity to employment areas, proximity to public amenities, and proximity to public transit. This vibrant, walkable, live/work environment is an important link between Downtown and the Cultural District. Mid- and high-rise housing, retail, and offices overlook the Trinity River corridor, providing scenic and recreational opportunities. The property is located on the corners of University Street, Bledsoe and Morton Streets. The applicant is proposing to amend the site plan for PD 1058. The PD is based on "MU-2" for a single use building with a maximum 85 feet height. Originally a multi -story hotel with parking garage was proposed. The applicant is now proposing a ten (10) story mixed -use structure with office, multifamily, hotel and retail with ground floor garage parking. Additionally, the new proposed project will encompass the entire block. Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses • ZC-15-124 to "PD/MU-2" Planned Development for all uses in "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed Use allowing a single use building to have a maximum 85 ft. height, 0' rear yard, including facade variation for two scaling elements, low e efficient glass, integrated mechanical shading/glazing or other thermal light heat energy measure, metal, porcelain, spandrel panels or curtain walls for masonry requirement and utilize landscaping architectural elements for screening parking garage facade; site plan included • ZC-02-221, from "G" Intensive Commercial and "J" Medium Industrial to "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed - use, effective 10/2/02 (subject property) Surrounding Zoning and Land Uses North "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed -Use / restaurant, commercial, car wash East "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed -Use / bar, automotive South "MU-2" High Intensity Mixed -Use / office, spa West "PD/897" Planned Development for all uses in "CF" Community Facilities plus alcohol sales, with development standards; site plan waived / Modern Art Museum Public Notification 300-foot Legal Notifications were mailed on September 21, 2021. The following organizations were notified: (emailed September 24, 2021) Or anizations Notified Westside Alliance Cultural District Alliance* Linwood NA Trinity Habitat for Humanity Monticello NA Streams And Valleys Inc Camp Bowie District Inc. Fort Worth ISD * This Neighborhood Association is located closest to the subject property Development Impact Analysis Site Plan Comments The original site plan had the hotel facing University Boulevard with Morton and Bledsoe Streets as secondary street. The parking was tucked at the rear (east elevation) of the building with access to Morton and Bledsoe. The parking had minimum frontage on the secondary streets. The current MU-2 parking structure facade standards state the following: Parking Structure Facades a. Facade design: All parking structure facades that face a public space must be designed to incorporate architectural elements and materials that complement the adjacent building or buildings in the area. b. Ground level screening: Screening must be incorporated to minimize the visual impact of garages and parked cars at the pedestrian level. Landscaping, including trees and shrubs, may be utilized for screening purposes but must screen at least 50% of pedestrian level parking garage facades immediately upon installation, with species selected to eventually provide a full 100% screening. c. Parking structure openings along primary and secondary street frontages must not exceed 50 percent (%) of the total ground floor facade. The proposed site plan meets the above standards; however, at the last the Zoning Commission meeting (to be approved by City Council October 12, 2021) it was recommended to City Council that the standards be changed: Remove green screen system, planter walls, or similar vegetation from fenestration alternatives. Require parking structure openings to not exceed 20 feet per entrance. • Require ground floor occupiable space for multifamily buildings and limiting the street facade allowance for parking structure openings, parking structures or both combined. The western portion of the site located in PD 1058 conforms conceptually to MU-2 standards adopted in 2018 and thus staff is recommending approval. The remainder of the site (Zoned MU-2) will need to conform to the recently adopted MU-2 standards. It is staff s understanding that the applicant is proposing pedestrian garage parking along all of the secondary streets. This would not meet the new MU-2 standards nor does it meet the following guiding principles of the MU-2 ordinance: Promote a pedestrian -oriented urban form. In contrast to conventional zoning standards that place a primary emphasis on the regulation of land uses, mixed -use development standards and guidelines focus on promoting a walkable, urban form of development, consistent with the surrounding areas historic urban development patterns. The focus on form promotes buildings that conform to tested urban design principles. • Require excellence in design of the public realm and of buildings that front public spaces. The most successful and memorable urban environments are those in which walking down the street is appealing. Streets, plazas, parks, and other public spaces should be comfortable and inviting, and buildings fronting those spaces should be active and visually interesting at the pedestrian level. Promote walkability. Walkable communities are desirable places to live, work, and play. Walkable communities give higher priority to pedestrian activity by creating streetscapes that are safe, comfortable, interesting, and that accommodate a wide range of transportation modes and users. To foster walkability, development patterns should promote a mix of land uses and density, have an emphasis on the placement and orientation of buildings, have properly placed parking, place a high value on the design of quality streetscapes, provide access to transit, and provide unimpeded pedestrian connections to multiple destinations and open space. At the time of permitting the applicant will either need to conform to the MU-2 standards or ask for a waiver from the Urban Design Commission (UDC). FORTWORTH.
