A: If the neighborhood tries to get together to make an amendment to something in your district that was contrary to what is being adopted to this revision, it may prevent your ability to do that without being granted a variance or may limit your ability to change that regulation. Q: Can you provide a hypothetical on this language about a property owner's ability to make future changes to the TZD District uses and regulations on their property? A: An extreme hypothetical would be if a particular use was permitted in that district, as going through this amendment, the fact that the ordinance is open for consideration, it could be removed as a permitted use. Your property currently has all the rights under its current TZD zoning and this would not technically remove those. but if your neighborhood, for instance, came back in and wanted to rezone your neighborhood to make some change either in a particular use or something of that degree and open your zoning back up, it would be subject to the new conditions in there and you may not be able to have or ask for that use anymore. Q: Wants clarity if a group of people within a neighborhood ask for change that would supersede the grandfathering of the zone? A: Yes. If your neighborhood as a group came together and wanted to change or amend some regulations, then you would be under these new regulations and any restrictions that might get put into place. Q: If we go through this revision, we are grandfathered in unless we ask for change? F-,Wd= Q: Who would decide if the new request gets approved or not? A: The city council. Q: A group of us can go to city council and say we don't want the grandfather regulations, but the new ones instead and then we are subject to the new regulations if it gets approved? A: Potentially, yes. Another example would be a TZD that has non-residential uses in it, an office building, and somebody proposes to come in and change something zoning wise to that office building. They will, as being proposed right now, there may be new standards that affect building setbacks. If the building hasn't been built yet, they would be subject to those new setbacks. Q: Those are new developments? A: Under a new development, yes. Q: Asking about the grandfathering again. A: Another hypothetical in line with what you're thinking, if for some reason your neighborhood got together everybody agreed to change your regulations and that regulation change impacted a few homes in there that were already built a certain way, those homes would become non -conforming. If you are not changing the zoning then you are fine, you are vested/grandfathered under the regulations you have in place today. Q: Who is giving the authority? Do you need a majority of residents within the neighborhood to be able to effect this? A: Yes, if somebody is coming in your neighborhood to propose a change , it is really going to need the whole neighborhood to participate in that. In the absence that they don't they could file opposition and effect the vote requirement. An individual can't come in and change their neighborhood's zoning it would require 100 percent of your neighborhood to participate in that zoning application to do that. Q: If a developer comes in and develops a piece of property across from the resident's neighborhood and conforms to all of the new TZD regulations, does that mean they automatically get permission to build? A: No, it would still have to go through the review and approval process with staff, and then to Planning & Zoning board for their recommendation to City Council. City Council has the authority to approve or deny change of zoning. Q: Looking for clarity on the definition of adjacency as it relates to the new amendment. A: It would mean a directly abutting property, but as it goes through counsel's consideration, they could set a distance criteria. Q: As it stands it really its really just next to you? A: Yes. Q: Clarification on option 1 and option 2 in terms of the density calculation. A: Option 1 just proposed eliminating City Council's ability to grant a density higher than the set two dwelling units per acre. Option 2 is going to change the boundary to be just for the residential components. Where you have a mixed use development that has office or some level of retail in it, that area will be excluded from the are that's used to calculate that density number. It'll just be calculated around the residential component only. Q: Wouldn't option 2 increase the density? A: It will, the way this is set, they won't be able to go over two unless they ask for a variance to do that. Q: You mean option 2 is based on gross area? A: Yes. Q: Including the retail space? A: Yes, it would net out anything that is in a non-residential element of a neighborhood. Q: Asking about written language in the TZD or Texas Law about current residents of TZD not being affected by future changes? A: Currently, we don't have it written to propose that, but it's certainly something we could add. C: I certainly think that would make me feel more comfortable. A: Yeah, good suggestion. Does TZD have any governance or limitations on the non-residential component of a TZD, if so are those up for amendment as well? A: With the district being open, yes. Any element could be considered. These are the areas that just based on recent considerations that have been looked at seem to be the hotter button items. Q: Asking about forefront senior living project and the capacity of it in relation to TZD. A: Only part of that development was being proposed under TZD. The memory care and age restricted living units were all being proposed under a site plan district zoning. Q: TZD doesn't allow for a high density living type situation? A: It does not. It allows single family and what they call residential edge, and non- residential area, it can allow if proposed and approved what they call "live work units" and lofts. C: If you add the language that current residents of TZD are protected , it will alleviate most of our worries. Q: Wondering if the neighborhood decided to come together and sell off common spaces if that is being protected here? A: Each TZD is required to have a minimum of 15% open space and some have more and some have less. But what got approved under that zoning is required to remain as open space and part of those neighborhoods requirements is that they maintain and manage the open space. Q: Wants to make sure their individual properties can still be sold? A: Yes. The zoning that you have adopted will remain in place. Q: Are changes to the TZD specific to the zoning of the entire TZD? A: If a neighborhood as a whole came in and wanted to change your zoning, however this is adopted could affect how you're able to do that and what you may have to ask council to do. Q, Grandfathering is per residence, not per homeowner correct? A: Any change of ownership on your properties would not change the regulations that they're required to abide by. The zoning regulations you have today will transfer to the new owner. Q: If someone's property got burned down and needed to be rebuilt, would that be under the old or new TZD regulations? A: That would be under your current TZD regulations. Q: If a neighbor decides to do something different then what it is zoned for, then they can't do that correct? A: That is correct, yes. Q: Are the TZD amendment proposals more restrictive or less restrictive? A: In general, a couple of them are more restrictive. I think the idea is to put up a couple of guardrails to help the developer stay within a particular lane. At the end of the day, it certainly could change as it moves through council and other input is provided. Q: Adjacency standards seemed less restrictive? A: Right now there are really no adjacency standards other than what is just written into the ordinance, it does not take into account adjacency. Right now it is really up to the developers to make sure they are following the intent of the TZD as far as how their intensities distributed on the property. This would put in another guard rail. Q: Are there any rules around how tall a building can be in a TZD? A: It does set a minimum number of floors, depending if it's in the retail or the neighborhood edge area and then the residential has a maximum number of floors that it can be and that's written into the code today. The residential is limited to two stories. The residential edge is set at two and a half stories and then retail is three stories.
