Board Comments
L Commissioner Byrne asked staff if the project has accounted for the widening of Eubanks Lane. Senior Planner
Molina stated that the project has dedicated Right-of-Way for Eubanks Lane and it has been shown on the plat
being Item H of the Consent Agenda.
Commissioner Gouge asked staff for clarification on the report stating that the site is in general compliance with
the design requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Senior Planner Molina stated that the plan has some pending
comments regarding driveway spacing requirements that will be addressed at a staff level during the civil plan
review. Development Engineering Manager Than Nguyen explained how there is an existing driveway to the east

to combine the two driveways will be considered.

2. Hold a Public Hearing,consider, and act upon, a recommendation to City Council regarding a change in
zoning from Commercial Corridor (CC) to Commercial Corridor - Special Use Permit (PD-SUP) on
0.917 acres located at 2505 FM 1378 (ZC 2022-17).
Staff Comments
Senior Planner Molina approached the Commissioners, stating that the applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit
to allow for residential structure to be converted to a commercial building for an office use.The proposed plan adds
seven parking spaces with a new proposed driveway entrance from FM 1378.
The SUP conditions allows for the existing residential structure design to be allowed within the Commercial
Corridor design requirements and sets restrictions on any additions or major alterations being allowed.
Staff has recommended for the zoning request to be denied due to the property having a prior zoning case for
Commercial Corridor with ground up commercial development and also due to the fact that the proposed request
does not fit in line with the Comprehensive Plans goal of Local Commercial development along that portion of
street frontage of 1378.
Notices were sent to four property owners within 200 feet as required by state law. One response was received in
favor and none in opposition of the request.
Chair Rogers announced that Board member Grieser has arrived at 6:20pm
Board Comments
Mr.Newzad Brifki,the applicant,provided additional information regarding the intent of the proposed request. He
stated that the building will be used for office use space.He stated his goal was to preserve the existing development
with the goal of waiting until a larger strip of the land can be acquired for new commercial development.
Commissioner Byrne asked staff if it was possible to set a limitation on the Special Use Permit to render it null and
void if the property were ever to change in ownership.Applicant Brifki stated that if that motion passed his property
would not maintain its desirability and value.

Community Services Director Jasen Haskins stated that the conversion of the residential property to commercial
would require an investment for the infrastructure and compliance of commercial building code life and safety
standards.
Commissioner Loraine mentioned that allowing for this Special Use Permit and deviation of the Comprehensive
Plan could set a precedent for future zoning changing requests that deviate from the intent of the city's land use
plan.
Public Comments
Chair Rogers opened the Public Hearing on Item 2,with no questions, Chair Rogers closed the Public Hearing.
Board Action
A motion was made by Commissioner Byrne, seconded by Commissioner Grieser,to recommend approval of Item
