Title

Consider public testimony regarding, and an ordinance rezoning approximately 1.44 acres along Cushing Drive southeast of School Days Lane from the MF-2 (Multi-Family - Medium Density) zoning district to the TF (Two-Family) zoning district. (First Reading)*

Body

The property was annexed in 1966 and it has been zoned for multi-family uses since 1986.  It is currently subdivided into four lots, two of which contain single family homes.  It is bordered on three sides by the Trinity Place Apartment complex.  Since the property is zoned for multi-family, the existing homes are non-conforming uses.  The request, submitted by Mr. Marco Antonio Castillo, is to change the zoning to TF (Two-family), a district which allows both single family attached units (duplexes) and single family detached units.  Since the existing lots meet the requirements for both housing types, the rezoning would bring the existing homes into conformance and would allow single family detached units or duplex units to be built on the remaining two lots. 

The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing and voted unanimously at their meeting on June 20, 2018, to recommend approval of the rezoning from MF-2 (Multifamily - Medium Density) to TF (Two-Family).
