Re: FM 1518 Comprehensive Land Plan Amendment Request Letter
Dear Ms. Wood:
In connection with the proposed rezoning and development of the FM 1518 Multi- family
Tract, we are requesting that the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan be amended. The subject
property is +/- 14.69 -Acres and is located at 9120 E FM 1518 North Schertz, Texas 78154 (See
Exhibit "1 ").
The City of Schertz Current Land Use Plan lists the subject property as 'Estate
Neighborhood' designation (See Exhibit "2 "). We are requesting that the land use be amended
to 'Mixed Use Neighborhood Center' (See Exhibit "3 "). The proposed change in land use for the
subject property will be in order to develop a Multi- family Apartment complex. A
rezoning application will be submitted after the Comprehensive Land Plan Amendment
has been approved to change the zoning of the subject tract from Pre - Development (Pre) to
Planned Development District (PDD).
The existing'Estate Neighborhood' land use designation forthe subject property does not
allow for the development of a Multi - Family Apartment Complex. Given the subject property's
location, it is situated in prime position to provide working families quick commute times to
Randolph Air Force Base and access to Interstate Highway 10. Additionally, this proposed multi-
family development provides more housing options for working families. There has been a large
increase in Single - Family Residential developments in the area which has provided the necessary
infrastructure to support this multi - family complex.
We believe that this amendment request for the Subject Property is appropriate, and ask
for your support in amending the Comprehensive Land Use Plan in this regard.
