Staff Report to the Commissioners
Date: November 20, 2014
Agenda Item No: WORK SESSION-C.
I. Subject:
Discuss ideas for changes to the Schedule of Uses, Section 17-421 of the Kennedale City Code
II. Originated by:
Rachel Roberts, City Planner
III.Summary:
Last month,the Commission voted to recommend approval of a zoning change for property designated as
"Light Industrial" in the Future Land Use Plan. As you will recall,the next step in the process to transitioning to
light industrial uses (at least as far as new land uses are concerned) is to update the schedule of uses in the city
code so that the most intensive uses require a special exception or conditional use permit or are no longer
permitted. A copy of the table from section 17-421 is attached to this report with proposed changes marked in
red. Please note that for uses that are amended or eliminated, existing uses would be grandfathered and
allowed to continue, so changing the schedule of uses will not eliminate any existing land uses.
The changes shown are not yet an official recommendation. Staff is still reviewing the uses and considering in
terms of intensity and potential for negative effects on public health, safety, or general welfare. However,
before we get too far along in our revisions, I would like to have input from the Commission on which uses, if
any, you feel would not be suitable in a light industrial district.

1. Staff presentation
Ms. Roberts gave the staff presentation. She said each of these locations are the only ones in the area
identified as Light Industrial in the Future Land Use Plan that are not zoned Industrial. She said the uses are
already industrial, and the City staff would like to bring them out of grandfathered status and into compliance
with the city code. She said that she had one complaint from a property owner and several positive
responses from other property owners to the zoning change. Mr. Brim said he is concerned that some heavy
industrial uses will surface at some of the properties in between the time of turning the properties from
industrial to light industrial in the future. Mr. Rawe stated that in the staff report, Ms. Roberts implied that we
might or might not change the industrial zoning to light industrial in the future. She said that we could either
revise the existing code for industrial districts or have separate heavy and light industrial districts.

I. Subject:
CASE PZ#14-09 Public hearing and consideration of Ordinance approval regarding a request by Delia Vela for a
zoning change from "R-2" Single family residential district to "PD" Planned development district for
approximately 1.98 acres at 6901 Mansfield Cardinal Rd, legal description of Jesse Russell Addn Lot 4.

Rachel Roberts, City Planner
III.Summary:
Request: rezone from "R2"to "PD"
Location: 6901 Mansfield Cardinal
Applicant: Delia Vela (property owner)
Background.
Last year,the property at 6901 Mansfield Cardinal Rd was purchased by the owners of Water Tank Services, a
company that specializes in painting water towers.The property had been in use for commercial purposes,
several of the surrounding uses are intensive commercial in nature, and the previous owner assured the buyers
that the property was zoned for commercial use.The buyers also called the city to verify the zoning and were
told the property was zoned commercial.The buyers purchased the property with the intent of using it for their
office and to store equipment when the equipment was not in use at a job site.
After the current owners, Mr. and Mrs. Vela, purchased the property and attempted to obtain a certificate of
occupancy,they were told that the property is actually zoned for residential use. When they had called to verify
the zoning prior to purchasing,the person they spoke with looked at a map that had not been updated to show
the property's correct zoning.The Velas would like to rezone the property for commercial use so that they can
use it for their business.The requested zoning district is a PD in order to allow greater control over the uses and
appearance of the property than could be had under a straight rezoning.
Staff Review.
Compliance with the comprehensive land use plan.
This property is located at the end of an area identified as Neighborhood Corridor in the comprehensive land
use plan. Neighborhood corridors "assume a lower level of density and intensity than urban corridors, but still
identify an area where residents can come together to shop, eat, socialize, and relax in a walkable
environment;thereby experiencing increased quality of life" (excerpt from the comprehensive plan). Sample
development types include restaurant, coffee shop, corner store, retail, small-scale multi-family or townhouse
residential, as well as services and professional offices.
The proposed ordinance allows for uses that fit this description. In addition,the ordinance also allows for a
contractor's business office with some outside storage. Outside storage would not be permitted to exceed 50%
of the land not occupied by a structure and would have a number of screening requirements (see Section 2 in
the attached ordinance). In addition, commercial uses within the PD would be limited to certain hours of
operations in order to decrease the likelihood of noise problems, and outdoor lighting would likewise be
limited. In this way, a contractor whose main use of property within the PD is for a business office could
operate on this property while still being able to accommodate some outside storage in a way that does not
have a negative impact on surrounding properties.
The City has not yet established zoning regulations that implement the Neighborhood Corridor concept, so in
creating the draft PD ordinance, I've used some requirements from recently-adopted zoning regulations.These
requirements address some concerns the Commission has had over the past few years about the quality of
development and the way development can affect surrounding properties.The regulations include prohibitions
against blank walls, glazing requirements, and controls for exterior commercial lighting.
Compliance with the strategic plan.
Several of the recommendations in the strategic plan relate to providing more opportunities for businesses to
relocate to or expand in Kennedale, but none of the recommendations relate directly to this rezoning request.
Compliance with City Council priorities.
None of the City Council's priorities relate directly to this rezoning request, although the Council does place a
priority on a business-friendly environment. In this kind of environment, regulations are clear yet flexible;they
work with the community's market conditions and demographics with compromising the public health, safety,
or general welfare.
Staff Recommendation.
The requested rezoning, as controlled by the draft ordinance, is in compliance with the comprehensive land
use plan.The comprehensive land use plan provides a general description of the character district in which this
property is located (Neighborhood Corridor) but does not provide an exhaustive list of compatible land use
types or development regulations. The proposed regulations for the request planned development district
provide for enhanced development regulations above the requirements in the city's standard commercial
districts and, unlike the city's standard zoning districts,the proposed PD allows for a variety of land use types,
both residential and commercial.
Staff recommends approval.
Commission Review and Consideration.
The city code outlines the Commission's review process:
Upon submission of the application for a "PD" district or development in a "PD" district and
after proper notice has been given to all affected parties and public hearings have been held,
the planning and zoning commission and the city council shall review the application and may
either give approval, with or without modifications, or reject it. In approving the application,the
city council may impose conditions and these conditions shall be complied with before a
certificate of occupancy is issued for the use of land or any structure which is part of the "PD"
district.
Sample Motions.
Sample motions are provided below for your reference.You are not required to use one of these motions.
I make a motion to recommend approval of Case PZ 14-09.
I make a motion to recommend denial of Case PZ 14-09.
I make a motion to postpone Case PZ 14-09.

EXHIBIT"C"
The Property was purchased in November, 2013 for use as a commercial property. At
that time, the City of Kennedale's zoning map identified the Property as being zoned
Commercial (C2), and City Staff confirmed the Commercial zoning. After I purchased the
Property, I discovered that the City's zoning map was incorrect, but I could do nothing
about it. I would not have purchased the Property if I had known that it was not zoned
Commercial.
The Property improvements consist of a large parking lot, with 11 parking spaces,
including 1 space designated for handicap parking, a large metal building, and a concrete
walkway between the parking lot and the metal building. The metal building contains a
small lobby area by the front door, 2 small offices, a break room, and a large open
workshop area with 18 foot ceilings. The large open workshop area was constructed to
service trucks and other vehicles.
The building's construction materials, floor plan, and layout make it unsuited for
residential use. The Property is unusable for the purposes allowed under existing zoning,
because it is not suitable for any type of residential use. The metal building on the
Property would have to be either demolished, or comprehensively remodeled at
substantial cost in order for the Property to support a residential use.
In addition, there are numerous commercial land uses in the immediate area of the
Property that make the Property unsuitable for use as a residence. For example, there is
a concrete contractor, Reb Concrete, at 6867 Mansfield Cardinal Road to the northwest
of the Property, as well as the commercial business Functional Ideas, Inc., at 5869 Eden
Road currently adjacent and to the northeast of the Property.
The person from whom I purchased the Property used it for commercial purposes as did
the owner of the Property before him. To my knowledge, the Property has never been
used for residential purposes.
I believe that the general welfare of all the City will be enhanced by a change of zoning,
recognizing the obvious commercial use of the Property. My requested zoning recognizes
the long standing use of the Property, its current and obvious suitability only for a
commercial use, and is in harmony with the City's Neighborhood Corridor uses in the
comprehensive plan, and the existing uses in my neighborhood and the City's
comprehensive plan.
