ZCH2019-0012. City Planner Stan Hamrick presented this item. This is a request for a zoning change from C1 Commercial to R1 One-Family Residential.

Existing residences became legal non-conforming uses when the zoning ordinance was updated; this prohibited residential uses in commercial zones. While the City has taken steps to ensure that an owner-occupied home can be rebuilt if destroyed, many lenders still require the zoning change to attain conforming status. The block and surrounding areas are developed with single-family residences. Staff finds that the R1 One-Family Residential zoning district is consistent with the current uses on the subject property and other [...]

Mr. Tucker recused himself. Hold a PUBLIC HEARING and consider approval of Ordinance 934-2018-49 amending Title XII – Zoning Ordinance: Chapter 2. Zoning Procedures and Administration to address non- conforming single-family residences in §12-2-2 Non-conforming uses and structures.

Mr. Farmer stated that confusion in the 2010 revised Title XII Zoning ordinance was remedied in the January 2016 adoption of detailed use charts that do not allow construction of a new residence in a commercial district such as along South Main Street. A problem has been created for existing single-family homes in commercial or industrial districts. The use chart amendments made those existing structures non-conforming. Owners have a right to make repairs; however, if the non-conforming structure is damaged more than 50 percent, it cannot be repaired or replaced without special permission from the Zoning Board of Adjustments (ZBA). This costs money, creates substantial delays and is not guaranteed approval because of a state- mandated adjacent property notice. Potential purchasers and/or their mortgage companies want assurances from the City that these structures have the right to be repaired or [...]
Hold a PUBLIC HEARING and consider approval of Ordinance 935-2018-50 amending Title XII – Zoning Ordinance: Chapter 3. Zoning Districts to address front setbacks in §12-3-3 RE Residential Estate, and §12-3-5 R1 One Family Residential. MCA2018-0002 Mr. Farmer presented this item. He stated there has been a continuing problem in the Trace Ridge subdivision with setbacks shown on plats that conflict with the actual location of built homes. The zoning ordinance, in both Section 12-3-3 RE Residential Estate and 12-3-5 R-1 One-Family Residential, provides that on plats where building lines, setback lines or front yard lines are shown on recorded plats, that the minimum setback or front yard shall be the one shown on the plat, not the one in the zoning ordinance. The developer of Trace Ridge and various contractors desired to have a reduced front setback from the 35 feet shown on the plat to 25 feet. They petitioned the home owner's association to waive the requirement in the early 2000s which was approved. Based on that approval, a number of homes were permitted with front setbacks of 25 feet which is less than shown on the plat. However, the action of a home owner's association cannot override an ordinance requirement approved by the City Council or a line shown on a recorded plat. To comply with the zoning ordinance, the plat currently must be re-platted, which is expensive and [...]

Councilwoman Wilder voted in opposition. Discuss requirements for drafting ordinance allowing residents to keep chickens.

He reviewed the definition of fowl and stated that under the right conditions, a residential yard could have as many as 150 ostriches, for example, under the current ordinance. The primary factors in developing an ‘Urban Chickens’ ordinance are whether or not to allow roosters, the number of chickens, human housing, and where they will be allowed. Mr. Deel noted that some HOAs and deed restrictions speak to this subject and may prevent some neighborhoods from having chickens, regardless of any ordinance the city may adopt. Staff recommendations included: • Properties less than an acre, residents may have up to six hens • Properties larger than one acre, residents may have 10 hens per acre, limit of 50 hens • Properties larger than five acres and zoned AG, residents may have 10 chickens per acre, with a rooster-to-hen ratio of no more than 1:10, and a limit of 150 chickens • All urban chickens shall be housed in a coop and run in which they cannot run at large o The coop will require five square feet per hen o The exercise run will require 15 square feet per hen o Both coop and exercise run [...]

Consider a request to Master Plat property located at 1609 Old Dicey Road, more generally described as being an approximately 21.13 acres, in the Desideno De La Cruz Survey, Abstract No. 223, City of Weatherford, Parker County, Texas. SBD2017-0025 Mr. Hamrick presented this Master Plat request. The subject property is on the north side of Dicey Road. Mr. Hamrick provided an image of the lot configuration that is being proposed. Since this is just the Master Plat, not a lot of detailed engineering has been conducted at this point. The development will have City water and sewer to the entire site. This is a long road that has the main entrance, a stub out to the west, and property for a stub out to the vacant property on the north. This development cannot connect to existing neighborhoods on the east and west because those neighborhoods are already fully developed. The applicant has proposed two drainage areas.

A follow up zoning case to change the zoning from AG Agriculture to RE Residential Estate, is forthcoming. The plat includes a 50 foot right-of-way for a full road in the future. Two generalized drainage areas are proposed because of topography issues, one at the north and one at the south. Design of the detention areas will occur during the Preliminary [...]

Weatherford City Council, March 24, 2015: 11 items, 1 split vote; and/or act upon acceptance of the annual audit report for the fiscal year ended September
Hold a PUBLIC HEARING for the zoning case on North Oakridge Drive and Sonora Canyon Road, ZCH2015-0001, and continue the hearing at the April 14, 2015 City Council meeting. Mr. Farmer stated that this Public Hearing relates to a zoning case that the PZC heard two weeks ago. Initially, the Commission passed a vote to approve the request, but due to some confusion between public speakers and the commissioners, they later approved a motion to reconsider the item and then immediately approved a motion to table the item until their next meeting on March 25. Because there is no official recommendation from the PZC at this time, and tonight's Public Hearing had already been announced and published in the newspaper, staff recommended that the Council accept comments tonight. Mayor Pro Tem Craig Swancy opened the Public Hearing at 7:01 p.m. As there were no speakers, on the motion of Jeff Robinson, second by Heidi Wilder, the Council voted to continue this Public Hearing until the April 14, 2015 City Council meeting. Motion carried 4 - 0.
Discuss and consider adoption of Ordinance 720-2015-09 amending Title IV Building and Property Maintenance Regulations, adding Chapter 13. Historic Preservation, to coordinate and remove duplicative language to be found in other titles. MCA2015-0003 Mr. Farmer presented this item as well. These amendments add Historic Preservation to the name of Title IV. Title IV of the Code currently relates to building and property maintenance regulations and this amendment creates a new chapter, number 13, which specifically relates to historic preservation. Mr. Farmer reiterated that these sections were previously codified in Title XII Zoning, but they are more CC032415 Page 3 of 7 procedural in nature and do not require the legal zoning processes. He reviewed amendments proposed by staff via the THC model ordinance, and amendments recommended by the City's HPC. The PZC also reviewed these amendments; they were not required to make a recommendation. Mr. Farmer discussed the tax incentives and other incentives for historic preservation. No dollar amount is listed in the proposed amendments; instead, the proposed amendment includes the words "to a maximum of the amount approved in the fiscal year budget by the City Council." This statement does not bind the Council to a specific dollar amount, nor does it prevent them from setting a zero budget. Funding for incentives is available on a [...]

ZCH2014-0012 Craig Farmer, Director of Planning and Development, presented this item stating that the 82 acres requested for rezoning wraps around the Silverstone development, which is a combination of PD Planned Development and R1 Single Family. For this remaining 82 acres, the applicant requests a zoning change from AG Agriculture to R1 Single Family. Mr. Farmer noted that the tract actually fronts on White Settlement Road, though the current development is not close to White Settlement Road. Regarding the future east loop, the master plat does show alignment for future roads and as long as the alignment of the road is reserved, then the property will not be developed or platted. If the alignment moves or the road is not built, then the property can be developed. The Planning and Zoning Commission voted to approve the request. Currently, only one way in/out exists for this neighborhood. Long-term, there is an additional access connection to the proposed loop. During the plat approval process, staff will bring additional [...]

Mr. Kirkman stated that the family determined the need for additional property in order to accomplish their goals for the dealership. They are asking that the CUP be extended for the additional property. The development CC 081214 Page 2 of 10 must use Washington Drive for access because the property is located along a section of the interstate that is restricted access by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

Hold a PUBLIC HEARING and consider a request for a Zoning Change from AG Agricultural to PD Planned Development, for a residential neighborhood, for property located in the 900 Block of W. B.B. Fielder, more generally described as a ± 54.745 acre tract in the John Davis Survey, A- 349, City of Weatherford, Parker County, Texas, ZCH2014-0004. Craig Farmer, Director of Planning and Development, presented this item. This zoning change request is from AG to PD and proposes 211 residential lots, some of which are smaller than the required square footage. Mr. Farmer provided details regarding the City's ordinances that require two ways in and out of subdivisions. This request meets the requirements for emergency access and for a temporary fire service road. Mr. Farmer clarified that this request is for property south of BB Fielder and west of Bethel, and that developer Steve Moore is working to gain an easement along Bethel to serve as an all-weather emergency access road. Many traffic related questions will be answered after the traffic impact analysis (TIA) is complete. Concerns were raised that neither of the two proposed access roads from Westover Village on the north side of BB Fielder have been constructed to the frontage road, forcing traffic to the BB Fielder intersection with Bethel. It was suggested that the TIA may indicate a traffic signal is needed at the Intersection [...]

Hold a PUBLIC HEARING and consider a request for a Zoning Change from C1 Commercial to R1 One-Family Residential, for a subdivision located at 1801 Rayna Drive, Chimney Rock Addition Phase II, more generally described as a ± 11.558 acre tract in the Sarah Monk Survey, A- 906 and Maria Antonio Mesa Survey, A-856, City of Weatherford, Parker County, Texas. CC070814 Page 4 of 7 ZCH2014-0006 Mr. Farmer presented this item. This tract is located at Mesa and Fort Worth Highway involving several homes in the area. This case was initiated by the City because the property is zoned C1 but is almost entirely built out with single family residences. As residents attempt to sell, they encounter problems with mortgage companies because C1 zoning does not provide certain protections that R1 zoning does. Mayor Hooks opened the Public Hearing at 7:43 p.m. Carl Overton, 125 Deanna Lane, trustee for three properties, spoke in favor, stating that following the City’s 2010 adoption of a new zoning ordinance, 31 homes became non-conforming overnight.

Fielder, more generally described as a ± 54.745 acre tract in the John Davis Survey, A- 349, City of Weatherford, Parker County, Texas, SBD2014-0014. Craig Farmer presented this item. He stated that he would make sure the minutes of this meeting reflect that the TIA must be completed and that a second paved access street will be required unless the TIA indicates that it is not warranted. The developer will put in a nice entry way and he is happy to build the temporary fire service road, but he does not want to put anything in on Bethel. He has already agreed to the second all-weather emergency access. If the TIA requires the additional access point on Bethel, then the developer will install it. Mr. Farmer noted that this item is the Master Plat and that the preliminary and final plats will still come before the City Council for approval in the future. Mr. Farmer clarified for the CC070814 Page 5 of 7 City Council that the normal process is zoning approval, master plat (concept plan) approval, and then a preliminary and final plat for each phase if the developer chooses to develop the property in phases, otherwise there will be just one preliminary and final plat for the entire development. The City Council can add certain requirements at the preliminary plat approval. On [...]

Mr. Farmer presented this request. This tract was recently rezoned to commercial with a conditional use permit for a warehouse.

Consider approval of Ordinance 654-2013-48 amending Title IX, Chapter 9 (Ordinance 82-2004- 25), the oil and gas well regulations of the city, providing for revised regulations governing the drilling and production of oil and gas wells within the city; providing for revised regulations regarding permitting and technical criteria. Project MCA2013-0002. Mr. Farmer presented this item stating that this ordinance clarifies and cleans up new, existing, and newly annexed oil and gas wells. Mr. Farmer introduced Attorney Bryn Meredith of the firm Taylor, Olson, Adkins, Sralla & Elam. Oil and gas development is primarily governed by the City's administrative regulations. Permitting goes through the City Council, which is why the redundant and duplicative requirements were removed from the zoning ordinance earlier in this meeting. Everything is a discretionary process for the Council. Mr. Meredith noted the following substantive changes: 1. This amendment addresses wells annexed into the City, or that were planned to be developed within 90 days prior to annexation, or that preexist the City's drilling regulations. Under state law, those wells have certain vested rights and the City cannot apply the entire ordinance. The City has limited authority and the ordinance requires that a site plan be filed, that insurance be provided, that a security fence be installed around any vested or [...]
