Title

Consider public testimony regarding, and an ordinance approving an amendment to the General Plan 2020 to modify the Future Land Use Map to allow commercial development on 11.308 acres located at or near the intersection of University Boulevard and CR 110. (First Reading)*

Body

The subject property, 11.31 acres, is located east of CR 110 and south of University Boulevard.  It was designated for residential use in 2010, with the adoption of General Plan 2020.  Its location at the far northeastern edge of the City’s planning area, close to SH130, commercial land uses were anticipated only at existing street intersections.  With the proposed creation of a new street intersection on University Boulevard to serve the Caffey & Ohlendorf tract and the Sauls East tract residential developments, the change to a commercial land use designation is justified.

The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing at their meeting on May 15, 2019 and voted 8-0 to recommend approval of the General Plan amendment.  There were no speakers at the public hearing.
