ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS, PROVIDING FOR A CHANGE
FROM THE SINGLE FAMILY 16 (SF-16) ZONING DISTRICT CLASSIFICATION
AND USE DESIGNATION TO THE OFFICE CONDITIONED (O[c]) ZONING
DISTRICT CLASSIFICATION AND USE DESIGNATION FOR 2.6662 ACRES OF
LAND LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF LILLIAN MILLER PARKWAY APPROXI-
MATELY 500 FEET SOUTH OF I-35E; PROVIDING FOR A PENALTY IN THE

FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, Mr Rob Rayner, on behalf of First State Bank of

the Single Family 16 (SF-16) zoning district classification and use
designation to the Office Conditioned (O[c]) zoning district
classification and use designation; and
WHEREAS, on April 24, 1996, the P1aru%ing and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of a change from the Single Family 16 (SF-16)
zoning district and use classification to the office Conditioned
(O[c]) zoning district and use classification; and
WHEREAS, on June 18, 1996, the Council of the City of Denton,
Texas considered the rezoning application and voted 4-3 in favor of
the rezoning, believing at the time that a majority vote was _
sufficient; and
WHEREAS, it was subsequently discovered that a supermajority
vote was necessary to effectuate the rezoning, by virtue of the
fact that the owners of at least 20% of the land within 200 feet of
the subject property were opposed; and
WHEREAS, on July 10, 1996, a majority of the Planning & Zoning
Commissioners in attendance gave informal direction to City staff
to waive any subsequent zoning application fee on the subject
property; and
WHEREAS, On July 11, 1996, Mr. Robert Rayner submitted a new
petition to rezone the subject property, requesting rezoning to a
conditioned zoning district which was more restrictive than the
petition considered on June 18, 1996; and
WHEREAS, on July 12, 1996, notice was sent pursuant to State
law for a second rezoning case on the subject property, similar to
the first] and
WHEREAS, on July 24, 1996, the Planning & Zoning Commission of
the City of Denton, Texas'voted to allow the City's application of
this second rezoning on the property in the public interest, and
without fee, pursuant to 635-7(a) of the Code of Ordinances of the
City of Denton, Texas, so that the original applicant would not be
called u on to a a second application fee in this matter, and so
p P Y
(IJ
that the rezoning effort would not be barred by 535-7(b)(6) of the
Code of Ordinances of the City of Denton, Texas, which prohibits
reconsideration of a denied zoning application within twelve months
of the denial, absent a finding of changed circumstances in the
neighborhood, or a finding that the reconsideration was for a more
restrictive zoning classification; and
WHEREAS, on July 24, 1996, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended approval of a change requested in the subsequent peti-
tion, from the Single Family 16 (sF-16) zoning district and use
classification to the Office Conditioned (O[c]) zoning district and
use classification; and
WHEREAS, the owner of the property and a designated represen-
tative of the neighborhood settled upon a set of conditions
agreeable to the owner and the surrounding neighbors, and have
indicated their concurrence with the rezoning herein proposed] and
WHEREAS, a new set of proposed conditions reviewed by the
owner and the neighborhood representative was reviewed by the
Planning staff, and found to be in compliance with the Denton
Development Plan; and
WHEREAS, the newly proposed conditions included at least one
condition which was deemed to be less restrictive than those which _
were previously noticed for public hearing and considered by the
Denton Planning & Zoning Commission on July 24, 1996; and
WHEREAS, on August 14, 1996, the Planning & Zoning Commission
indicated its ongoing approval of City's sponsorship of a third
rezoning proposal, in the public interest and without fee, pursuant
to 535-7(a) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Denton, Texas,
and
WHEREAS, on August 16, 1996, notice of an August 28, 1996
public hearing before the Planning & Zoning Commission was sent to
all owners of real property within 200' of the subject property;
and
WHEREAS, the Planning & Zoning Commission reconsidered zoning
under the newly proposed conditions on August 28, 1996, and voted
to recommend approval of same to the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the City Council now finds that it would have
postponed the June 18, 1996 vote on the rezoning to allow time to
clear up the uncertainty surrounding the majority requirements
prior to Voting; and
WHEREAS, the City Council further finds that the withdrawal of
the zoning protest of Mitchell Vexler on three lots within 200 feet
FiCe]�WJ
of the subject property, as well as the apparent resolution of
conflicts -between the owner and the surrounding neighborhood,
constitutes a substantial change in the conditions surrounding the
area to be rezoned, that would have warranted reconsideration of
the original rezoning request; and
WHEREAS, the City Council further finds that due to the confu-
sion surrounding the initial vote concerning the percentage of land
owners protesting the rezoning, and the fact that the City Council
anticipates that the chapter of the Code of Ordinances applicable
to zoning will be shortly amended to allow zoning reapplications
similar to this without the necessity of a waiting period, that a
variance from the waiting period should be granted; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the proposed Office
Conditioned zoning would provide a smoother transition between
adjacent properties zoned for residential and commercial uses.
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the change in zoning will
be in compliance with the Denton Development Planj NOW, THEREFORE
THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DENTON HERESY ORDAINS -
