SING TO WITHDRAW THIS ITEM (PD22-OOIOd,ltx.new.swagit .com/videos/;074?ts=900Mia Him):
BACK(,ROUND
The request is a rezoning from a Plannl Ent (PD) District with a Mixed-Use
Neighborhood (MN) base zoning district to a rTew1 Development (PD) District overlay
with a Suburban Corridor (SC) (PD-SC) base zo]to facilitate the development ofr,
several commercial pad sites on the subject property is currently zoned PD-MNleZr£
which transitioned from a zoning of Neighborhood Residel Use (NRMU) with overlayconditions under the 2002 Denton Development Code (Ordind 175). In accordance with.J
DDC Section 1.7.8, the following conditions from Ordinance b5 apply to the subject4
propertyNo Multi-Family dwellings are permitted
2. The entirety of Tract B (subject property) may be development for commercial uses perthe Neighborhood Residential Mixed-Use District as heretofore amended and all other
applicable regulations in the Denton Development Code and the Code of Ordinances asheretofore amended
For anything not specified in the above stated overlay conditions, the standards for the MN District
and 2019 Denton Development Code apply.
The applicant is requesting the PD-SC district to ensure the proposed rezoning and subsequent
development are compatible with both the surrounding neighborhood and the Community MixedUse context of this area. The DDC was recently amended in 2022 to allow for PD districts
specifically for this purpose; in this case the applicant is requesting the Overlay PD which allows
for development standards and uses to be modified without necessitating a Development Plan
which is otherwise required for a Standard PD. An Overlay PD may be used to restrict or expand
the uses permitted within a base zoning district, impose additional use-specific standards, and/or
modify setbacks, landscaping, screening, or buffering requirements adjoining residential uses or
less intensive land uses. Additionally, as it relates to this requested PD-SC district, this request
would also serve to bring the development of the subject property into alignment with the City’s
current zoning and development regulations and eliminate an older zoning overlay based in the
2002 Denton Development Code, which can be challenging to apply since portions of both the
2019 and 2002 DDC apply to the site today.
The subject site includes two tracts of land divided by Hunters Creek Road, an east-west Collector,
and is situated between single-family and multifamily developments to the west, and Teasley Lane,
a 6-lane divided Primary Arterial to the east. Ryan Road, a 2-lane Secondary Arterial, is located
to the south. When the PD was previously established, Planned Development Ordinance No. 2014-
075 assigned the same overlay restrictions on both the subject site and the adjacent multifamily
site. Ordinance Z18-0025d subsequently amended this PD by permitting the development of
multifamily on the adjacent tract but had no impact on the subject site.
