BACKGROUND Per the applicant's letter of intent, the applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 4.15 acres of land from General Business District (GB) to General Business District-2 (GB-2) to develop flex industrial buildings for office-warehouse use. The property is platted and is currently undeveloped. The site is located within the Accident Potential Zone II (APZ II) for JBSA Randolph Air Force Base.  On April 25, 2025, 11 public hearing notices were mailed to the surrounding properties within a 200-foot notification boundary of the subject property. At the time of the staff report, one(1) response in favor, zero (0) response neutral, and zero (0) responses in opposition have been received. A public hearing notice will be published prior to the City Council Meeting.  Additionally, one (1) sign was placed on the subject property.  Subject Property:   Zoning Land Use Existing General Business District (GB)Undeveloped Proposed General Business District-2 (GB-2)Office- Warehouse/Distribution Center Adjacent Properties:    Zoning Land Use North Right of Way Maske Road (Commercial Collector- A)  South General Business District-2 (GB-2)Office- Warehouse/Distribution Center East General Business District (GB)Undeveloped West General Business District (GB) Undeveloped GOAL Per the applicant's letter of intent, the applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 4.15 acres of land from General Business District (GB) to General Business District-2 (GB-2) to develop flex industrial buildings for office-warehouse use.   Dimensional and Developmental Standards (Sec. 21.5.7.B)    Min.

SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION 1. Whether the proposed zoning change implements the policies of the adopted Comprehensive Land Plan, or any other applicable adopted plans The Comprehensive Land Plan is a guiding document for the long-range vision of Schertz and designates this area as "Industrial Hub." Industrial Hub is intended for developments such as manufacturing warehouses, processing, and distribution centers, and can buffer industrial areas to transition to other land uses by developing flex buildings or research and development. The applicant is requesting a zone change from General Business District (GB) to General Business District-2 (GB-2) to develop flex industrial buildings for office-warehouse use. Office-warehouse land use is consistent with the Industrial Hub designation and thus implements the policies established by the Comprehensive Land Plan.  2. Whether the proposed zoning change promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the City. As part of promoting health, safety, and general welfare, zone change requests should align with the Unified Development Code (UDC) and city policy. The subject property is located within the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone District (AICUZ). More specificially, this property is located within the Accident Potential Zone II (APZ II). These zones are established to provide control on encroachment around a military airfield per UDC Sec. 21.5.9.A, which requires that Randolph Air Force Base (RAFB) affirmatively recommend to the City that the proposed zone change be permitted. Based upon an evaluation of noise pollution and the high risk potential of aircraft accidents, RAFB has affirmatively recommended the zone change request from General Business District (GB) to General Business District-2 (GB-2). Therefore, the proposed zone change aligns with the UDC and city policy.  3. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed change will be consistent and appropriate with existing uses in the immediate area The subject property is currently undeveloped and is located directly adjacent to an area with numerous properties zoned as General Business District-2 (GB-2). General Business District-2 (GB-2) is intended to provide suitable areas for the development of non-residential and light industrial uses that serve the entire community. Therefore, given the current conditions of the surrounding area, a rezone to General Business District-2 (GB-2) does meet the intent of the UDC and is appropriate with the existing uses in the immediate area. The land uses permitted in General Business District-2 (GB-2) are listed in UDC Section 21.5.8 -Permitted Use Table.  Permitted Use Table (Sec. 21.5.8)*  Existing Zoning District Proposed Zoning District  General Business District (GB)General Business District-2 (GB-2) Permitted Uses Appliances, Furniture and Home Furnishing Store Building Material and Hardware Sales  Car Wash, Automated  Commercial Amusement, Indoor  Appliances, Furniture and Home Furnishing Store Building Material and Hardware Sales  Car Wash, Automated  Commercial Amusement, Indoor  Auto Repairs and Service, Major Office Warehouse/Distribution Center Mini-Warehouse/Public Storage (SUP)  *The permitted use table shown is a non-exhaustive list. For a complete list of permitted uses, see UDC Section 21.5.8-  *The permitted use table shown is a non-exhaustive list. For a complete list of permitted uses, see UDC Section 21.5.8- Permitted Use Table.  4. Whether other factors are deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the amendment All UDC requirements have been met for the proposed zone change. City of Schertz Fire, EMS, and Police Departments have been notified of the zone change and have provided no objections to the request. JBSA Randolph has been notified of the zone change request by the City of Schertz and, per the 2017 Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) Study, JBSA finds warehousing and storage services to be permitted within this area of the Accident Potential Zone (APZ) II with a maximum Floor-to-Area Ratio (FAR) of 2.0. Per their independent review, JBSA affirmatively recommends approval of the zone change request.  RECOMMENDATION Due to the character of the surrounding area, the consistency with the Comprehensive Land Plan, and the affirmative recommendation of the proposed zone change from JBSA Randolph, staff recommends approval of PLZC20250055.

Zone Change in APZ II- PLZC20250055-44,46 has been reviewed by JBSA-RND organizations. JBSA affirmatively recommends the proposed zoning change is permitted, however, there are additional comments for consideration in planning and development. a. Subject parcel is located within Randolph AFB Accident Potential Zone II (APZ II). Per the 2017 RND Air Installations Compatible Use Zones (AICUZ) study, Warehousing and storage services, SLUCM No. 63.7, is permitted within APZ II with a maximum Floor-to-Area Ratio (FAR) of 2.0. Retail trade, SLUCM No. 50, is generally permitted within APZ II with a maximum FAR of .28. Approximately .4 acres located on the southeast corner of the subject tract is with-in the 65 Db DNL plus noise contours generated from flying missions at JBSA RND. Retail trade and Warehousing/storage services are permitted with-in these noise zones. Additionally, due to the proximity to the primary approach/departure flight tracks of RND AFB, expect regular and increasing levels of noise. https://www.jbsa.mil/Portals/102/Documents/Environmental%20PA/FINAL%20Randolph%2 0AICUZ%20Study.pdf b. Recommend referencing City of San Antonio MLOD lighting standards at: https://library.municode.com/tx/san_antonio/codes/unified_development_code?nodeId=ARTIIIZO_DIV4OVDI_S35-339.04MILIOVDI, or most current City of San Antonio MLOD ordinance, related to development within 5-miles of a military installation and compliance with applicable City of Schertz lighting ordinances. c. To mitigate potential interference with existing JBSA operational systems, please coordinate with 502 CS Spectrum Manager prior to use of any Spectrum dependent systems (i.e.: two-way radio communications, or any type of wireless technologies) during construction. If applicable, coordination requested by facility user prior to installation/use of any Spectrum dependent commercial or manufacturing equipment. d. Any proposed exterior construction plans, construction or alteration projects which include vertical elements (equipment: cranes, towers: communication or water) may require FAA review to verify no hazard to flight navigation prior to issuance of any construction permits. FAA CFR Title 14 Part 77 Notice Criteria Tool that can be utilized to aid in FAA notification requirements can be found here: https://oeaaa.faa.gov/oeaaa/external/gisTools/gisAction.jsp?action=showNoNoticeRequiredToolForm Further FAA guidance is also available here: https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Form/FAA_Form_7460-1_042023.pdf e. The FAA recommends criteria of land-use practices in their Advisory Circular 150/5200- 33C, Hazardous Wildlife Attractants on or Near Airports, which is applicable to properties within five miles of JBSA-Randolph. To reduce the exposure to aircraft-wildlife strikes, please use the link below to access this publication and use the information to help reduce wildlife-attractant features near airports. Unwavering consideration for this aviation safety hazard is vital.https://www.faa.gov/airports/resources/advisory_circulars/index.cfm/go/document.curren t/doc umentnumber/150_5200-33. 2. The items presented above are efforts to enhance the safety of the community and minimize noise impacts due to the proximity of low flying aircraft. Improperly managed development may create unnecessary risk to both the community and flight operations as well as affect the overall capability of the military at this location. 3.

SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION When evaluating zone changes, Staff refers to the criteria listed in UDC Section 21.5.4.D. The criteria are listed below: 1. Whether the proposed zoning change implements the policies of the adopted Comprehensive Land Plan, or any other applicable adopted plans; The subject property is designated as Complete Neighborhood in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Complete Neighborhood Land Use Designation is intended for a mix of residential lot sizes with neighborhood commercial to create a complete neighborhood. Along Lower Seguin and within half a mile of the subject property, Carmel Ranch PDD, Rhine Valley PDD, and Saddlebrook Ranch PDD all offer residential lots with a smaller minimum lot size and dimensions than the 70-foot by 120-foot 8,400 square foot required in Single-Family Residential District (R-2). The proposed zone change to Single-Family Residential District (R-2) implements the policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan by providing a different lot size to add to the mix of residential. 2. Whether the proposed zoning change promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the City As part of promoting health, safety, and welfare, the City should encourage development compatible with surrounding uses, utilizing standards and transitional uses to alleviate negative impacts. The proposed Single-Family Residential District (R-2) acts as a transition to the smaller residential lot developments to the large agricultural properties. 3. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed change will be consistent and appropriate with existing uses in the immediate area; There are existing residential developments surrounding the subject property. To the left of the subject property is the Carmel Ranch Subdivision, which is a smaller lot Single-Family Residential Planned Development District that allows for the construction of 131 residences. Out of the 131 residential lots within the Carmel Ranch development, 107 are smaller than what the applicant is proposing.  Carmel Ranch Planned Development District (Ord. 21-S-14 ) Dimensional Requirements Min. Lot Size Minimum Yard Setbacks Min. Off-Street Parking Spaces Misc Requirements Code Classification Area sf Width ft Depth ft Front ft Side ft Rear ft Parking Max.

SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION Sterling Grove Planned Development District (PDD); Ordinance 22-S-28 The Sterling Grove Planned Development District, also known as Ordinance 22-S-28, was passed on the July 26, 2022, City Council Meeting. The original PDD consisted of 362 acres of land that allowed for 832 total single-family residential homes. The minimum lot sizes allowed were 55-feet by 110-feet, 65-feet by 110-feet, and half-acre lots with no minimum width and depth. Per the PDD, approximately eighty-one percent (81%) of the single-family residential lots were going to be either the 55 or 65-foot wide lots. The Sterling Grove PDD was to be developed in four phases and included a Master Development Plan. Ordinance 24-S-149 was approved at the September 17, 2024, City Council meeting, which removed approximately 79-acres from the original Sterling Grove PDD and approved Single-Family Residential District (R-1) zoning. The zone change to Single-Family Residential District (R-1) removed land that was within portions of Phase 1,2, and 3 and altered the layout and acreage of the proposed master development plan of Sterling Grove. Since the roads were removed and altered the configuration of the PDD, the Sterling Grove PDD properties that depended on access within the property now zoned Single-Family Residential District (R-1), would no longer conform to the Master Development Plan. To resolve the issues in access and alteration of the MDP, the applicant is proposing to change the zoning for the portions affected by the removal of the 79-acres to Single-Family Residential District (R-2) so that the properties can still be developed without needing to amend the Sterling Grove PDD. The applicant would be able to continue to develop the remaining 221-acres that remain zoned under the Sterling Grove PDD to the unique standards and resolve the conflict that remained with the removal 79 acres within multiple phases. The subject 62-acres being rezoned must conform to the minimum Single-Family Residential District (R-2) dimensional and development requirements.  When evaluating zone changes, Staff refers to the criteria listed in UDC Section 21.5.4.D. The criteria are listed below: 1. Whether the proposed zoning change implements the policies of the adopted Comprehensive Land Plan, or any other applicable adopted plans; The subject property is designated as Complete Neighborhood in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan- Future Land Use Map. Complete Neighborhood is intended for a mixture of housing options with supporting land uses that include neighborhood commercial development. When evaluating zone changes, factors such as roadway classification, conflicts among land uses and buildings, and the undue concentration or diffusion of populations should be considered. The proposed Single-Family Residential District (R-2) meets the intent of the Complete Neighborhood Land Use Designation and implements the policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan by proposing 70-foot by 120-foot lots that are larger than what is in the existing Sterling Grove PDD and adding to the mix of residential in the existing area. 2. Whether the proposed zoning change promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the City; As part of promoting health, safety, and welfare, the City should encourage development compatible with surrounding uses, utilizing standards and transitional uses to alleviate negative impacts. The proposed Single-Family Residential District (R-2) acts as a transition from the smaller lots in the Sterling Grove PDD to the surrounding agricultural uses. 3. Whether the uses permitted by the proposed change will be consistent and appropriate with existing uses in the immediate area; The subject property is adjacent to the Sterling Grove PDD, which is intended for single-family residential and parks/ open space. To the right of the subject property, the properties are zoned Single-Family Residential District (R-2) with a minimum 8,400 square foot lot size and Single-Family Residential District (R-6) with a minimum 7,200 square foot lot size. To the south of the subject property, the property is zoned Single-Family Residential District (R-1), which is intended for single-family detached residential with a minimum lot size of 9,600 square feet. Additionally, there are properties zoned Agricultural District (AD) to the south of the subject property, which were part of recent annexations in 2024. Agricultural District (AD) is intended for areas where development is premature due to a lack of utilities, capacity, or service.  The applicant is proposing Single-Family Residential District (R-2) on approximately 62 acres, which is intended for single-family detached residential dwelling units with a minimum lot size of 8,400 square feet, together with schools, churches, and parks necessary to create basic neighborhood units. The proposed zoning district of Single-Family Residential District (R-2) requires a minimum lot size of 8,400 square feet and permits uses that are compatible and consistent with the existing uses in the immediate area. 4. Whether other factors deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council have not provided other factors for the consideration of the amendment. A public hearing notice was mailed to Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District. The most recent SCUC ISD Demographic Report and 10-Year Campus Forecasting Report have been attached to the Staff Report.The City of Schertz Fire, EMS, and Police Departments have been notified of the zone change request and have not provided objections. RECOMMENDATION Due to the compatibility of the proposed Single-Family Residential District (R-2) with the immediate area and the Complete Neighborhood Land Use Designation of the Comprehensive Plan, Staff recommends approval of PLZC20250043.

Staff is proposing to remove sections pertaining to the ETJ. This is based off of an understanding in recent state laws that have been passed to limit what Schertz is allowed to regulate in the ETJ and how easy it is to petition to be removed from the ETJ. Staff is proposing to move a sentence from 21.11.3 Administration into the Purpose section as it fits the Purpose section better. Section 21.11.2 Applicability Summary of Changes Proposed Removing unnecessary language. Subsection A. & B. are not required to be explicitly stated in the UDC. Subsection C. was a date that was proposed after the last update. This subsection is alluding to provision in the Article relating to categorizing and documenting older signs. This was never done and thus this subsection is not required. Section 21.11.3 Administration Summary of Changes Proposed Removing unnecessary language. Subsection A. was shortened and moved to 21.11.1 Purpose. Subsection E. and F. are not required to be explicitly stated in the UDC. Section 21.11.4 General Requirements Summary of Changes Proposed Replacing specific titles with "City Manager or his/her designee". Making minor edits to the permit application requirements to clarify what staff is looking for. Rewording of the "Fees" subsection to be consistent with the Fee Schedule. Section 21.11.5 Exempted Signs Summary of Changes Proposed Definitions were added to certain signs that did not have one. Murals were added to the exempted list. Directional Signs were added to the exempted list. Section 21.11.6 Prohibited Signs Summary of Changes Proposed Subsection J was updated to match recent changes to 21.8.4 Home Occupations. Subsection K was removed as Staff felt this particular sign is not prevalent in Schertz and the definition seemed problematic as it would include TxDOT traffic signs and other similar devices. Definitions were added to Bandit Signs and the definition of Painted Signs was edited to be consistent with Murals. Balloon Signs were added based off of recent City Council workshops on Temporary Signs. Section 21.11.7 Removal of Signs Summary of Changes Proposed Replacing specific titles with "City Manager or his/her designee". Section 21.11.8 General Sign Provisions Summary of Changes Proposed Removing wind load language as it is covered in the Building Code. Replacing specific titles with "City Manager or his/her designee". Sign clearance language was removed as our setback requirements make this language unnecessary. Section 21.11.9 Wall Signs Summary of Changes Proposed Regulations were condensed into new subsections. A special provision for Main Street properties abutting a railroad track. "Areas with Limited/Unlimited Access" changed to simple roadway classification. Wall sign standards turned into an easy to read table.  Staff is proposing changes to the standards as well that are detailed below:  Current Code Proposed Code Interstates, Farm to Market Roads, and Schertz Parkway are considered the same. Sign square footage calculated by % of facade or a cap determined by roadway, whichever is less.  Allowed buildings within Manufacturing Light District (M-1) and Manufacturing Heavy District (M-2) with a 300-linear foot facade a maximum of 250 square feet of signage.    Schertz Parkway has stricter standards than Interstates and Farm to Market Roads. Wall signs are allowed more flexibility and given an allotment of square footage per facade. This would more clearly allow either multiple sign components or one contiguous sign. Simplified for sign square footage to not exceed cap determined by roadway.  Provision added that allows large buildings (over 100,000 sq ft.) additional square footage for signage. Section 21.11.10 - Freestanding Sign Summary of Changes Proposed This is essentially a new category that has been created from combining the current "Freestanding Ground Sign", "Monument Sign", and "Multi-Tenant Sign" sections.  "Areas with Limited/Unlimited Access" changed to simple roadway classification. Sign standards turned into an easy-to-read table.  Staff is proposing changes to the standards as well. Essentially, sign standards on FM roads gain height and area, but standards on Schertz Parkway decrease. Most other regulations remained. These are detailed below:  Current Code Proposed Code Interstates, Farm to Market Roads, and Schertz Parkway are considered the same. Freestanding Ground Signs allowed a maximum height of 50 feet on Interstates, 40 feet on FM Roads, except 18 feet for FM 3009 and Schertz Parkway, and 20 feet everywhere else.

Freestanding Signs allowed a maximum area of 250 sq. ft. on Interstates and FM Roads, and 150 sq. ft. everywhere else. Provision added that prevents any one business taking up more that 50% of the allowable square footage for a multi-tenant sign. Where the current code has the developer being responsible for "adequate" space for tenants, this new rule provides a clear limitation and ensures space for tenants. Included requirements from existing 21.11.13 Electronic Signs. whichever is less. Developer responsible for providing "adequate" space for tenants in Multi-Tenant signs.  Section 21.11.11 Monument Signs Summary of Changes Proposed The section is proposed to be removed and combined with the new "Freestanding Signs".

This section was also moved up in order and will now be after the new "Freestanding Signs" Section 21.11.17 Temporary Signs Summary of Proposed Changes Sign standards turned into an easy-to-read table. Other items were included due to recent City Council workshops, such as limiting feather flag duration. A recurring event permit subsection was added for long-held community events in Schertz.  "Development Signs" and "Real Estate Signs" were added to these sections as these are, in essence, temporary signs as well.

This waiver is proposed to be heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission with any appeals going to City Council. Section 21.11.23 Violations Summary of Proposed Changes None. The result of these proposed changes will result in the removal of 7 sections. For example, the last section "Violations" would be renumbered to 21.11.16.

COMMUNITY BENEFIT It is the City’s desire to promote safe, orderly, efficient development and ensure compliance with the City’s vision of future growth. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION When staff evaluates Unified Development Code Amendments, they use section 21.4.7.D Criteria for approval. 1. The proposed amendment promotes the health, safety, and general welfare of the City;  It is considered good practice to proactively review and improve the Unified Development Code that governs development within the City of Schertz. This process has started because of the recent Temporary Sign workshops and staff has used this opportunity to overhaul the rest of Article 11. In promoting health, safety and general welfare, the city strives to make our development code more logical, easy to understand, and more consistent to enforce/administer. The proposed amendments help make Article 11 more user-friendly for residents, applicants, and city staff. This is done by creating more consistent language across the UDC, allowing residents, applicants, and city staff. This is done by creating more consistent language across the UDC, allowing for greater flexibility in our sign standards, and by simplifying language.  2. The proposed amendment is consistent with the goals, objectives, and policies of the UDC and the City;  The proposed amendments are consistent with the goals and desires of the City Council as discussed at the November 19, 2024, City Council workshop, the January 7 and February 4, 2025, City Council Meetings. Also, the Schertz Strategic Plan states that one of the goals and objectives for the city is to have a "thriving economy" by supporting "business retention and recruitment". Updating our sign code to be more flexible and easier to understand will help our business community here in Schertz thrive. 3. The proposed amendment corrects an error, meets the challenge of changing conditions, or is in response to changes in state law; and Some of these proposed amendments are reactive to state law changes, such as eliminating language pertaining to the ETJ. Mostly, these amendments are in response to issues that residents and applicants have had with Article 11. Staff's efforts to make this Article simpler and easier to understand will help address these concerns. Finally, certain sections do reflect changing conditions such as exempting murals or the change in classification of Schertz Parkway. The existing code equates Schertz Parkway with thoroughfares such as FM 3009 or FM 78; however, these amendments acknowledge that Schertz Parkway is not developing as an intense commercial corridor, and thus these sign amendments will help preserve its current character.   4. Other factors which are deemed relevant and important in the consideration of the amendment. Staff has ensured all UDC requirements have been met and the City Attorney's office has assisted staff to ensure state law compliance as well. The scheduled public hearing will provide an opportunity to introduce new factors for consideration. RECOMMENDATION These proposed amendments help promote the health, safety, and welfare for Schertz, align with city policies, and help meet the challenge of changing conditions. Therefore, staff is recommending approval of PLUDC20250090.

The request for the waiver has been reviewed and found to be reasonable. No sanitary sewer facilities exist in a reasonable distance to the proposed subdivision. From a sewer map perspective, the closest gravity sewer connection point is over 4,000 feet away. The proposed subdivision currently has a single family residence with an OSSF and no new development is proposed by the subdivision. Therefore, Engineering supports the granting of the waiver and notes that it is consistent with similar waivers granted in the City. Once public infrastructure has been extended to the area to provide sanitary sewer service, the subdivision will be required to connect to the sewer system, in accordance with Section 90-78 of the Code of Ordinances. 02/05/2025 11:35:39 AM Ap Certified By: William Willingham, PlannerPlanning and Community Development PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING: 05/07/2025 Agenda Item 6 B TO:Planning and Zoning Commission PREPARED BY:William Willingham, Planner CASE:PLPP20250053 Plat SUBJECT:PLPP20250053 - Consider and act upon a request for approval of a preliminary plat of the Burnette Subdivision, approximately 1.89 acres of land located at 12396 Schaeffer Road, Schertz, Texas, 78108, more specifically known as Bexar County Property Identification Number 308385.

The above referenced project is located approximately 390 feet from the intersection of Ware Seguin Road and Boenig Drive. The BCAD parcel ID for the plat to be developed is 619166. The plat consists of approximately 21.99 acres that includes the construction of a residential house and a commercial building for business. The proposed development is to be completed in two phases. Both phases are going to be operated and maintained by one owner. The subdivision plat is currently zoned as GB (General Business) and R-A (Single-Family Residential/Agricultural). We are requesting the following waivers: 1. “Lot 2 is not provided road frontage. Without frontage this would be discretionary per P&Z.” The plat shows an existing 30’ ingress/egress easement that provides access. The proposed plat is not removing and amending the existing easement. City Staff stated that they would recommend approval therefore this is a no action item. 2. “Required by city to connect to sewer where it is within 1,500 feet of commercial or 500 feet residential. Extension of water and wastewater lines shall be made along the entire frontage of the subdivision adjacent to a street or thoroughfare. If the subdivision is not adjacent to a thoroughfare, the extension of utilities shall be accomplished in such a manner as to allow future connections to said utilities by new subdivisions. If new subdivisions will never be constructed beyond a developing subdivision due to physical constraints, the Public Works Director may waive the requirement for adjacent utility line construction at the time of final plat approval and prior to construction of the subdivision.” We are requesting a waiver for this requirement. The owner was required to plat both properties because it was contiguous property. The owner has no immediate plans for the commercial development (Lot 1). The owner will be developing the residential lot (Lot 2) to P a g e | 2 construct a residential home as his primary residence. The owner will install a septic system for the residential home until the commercial development is developed. In addition, the cost to extend the sewer services is approximately $585,000. We have included a preliminary cost estimate. This cost would not be feasible at this time. If you have comments or questions, please contact me or Leonard D. Young at (210) 590-9215.

The request for the waiver has been reviewed and found to be reasonable. No sanitary sewer facilities exist in the area of the proposed subdivision. The closest possible sewer connection point is approximately 2,000 feet away from the single family residential lot. Therefore, Engineering supports the granting of the waiver and notes that it is consistent with similar waivers granted in the City. Staff has verified that the proposed platting is laid-out in a manner to provide for future connection to a public sanitary sewer system. Once public infrastructure has been extended to the area to provide sanitary sewer service, the subdivision will be required to connect to the sewer system, in accordance with Section 90-78 of the Code of Ordinances. Any new OSSF needed to serve the proposed lot(s) in the proposed Plat will be reviewed and permitted through Bexar County. A building permit will not be issued without either a Bexar County OSSF approved permit or extension of and connection to the public system. WARE - SEGUIN ROAD (VARIABLE WIDTH PUBLIC R.O.W.)

The property is zoned as Single-Family Residential/Agricultural District (R-A) and is located within the Joint Base San Antonio- Randolph Accident Potential Zone II. The Planning and Zoning Commission approved the preliminary plat for the subject site on October 2, 2024. The preliminary plat required discretionary approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission because the property does not have direct frontage onto a public street but instead takes access onto Ware-Seguin Road through a non-exclusive 30-foot ingress and egress easement. UDC Section 21.9.3.J requires that each lot be provided with adequate access to a public street, either by direct frontage or by public access easement approved by the commission. Thus, the preliminary plat for the subject property was brought forth to the commission and was approved under case PLPP20240175. Per the letter of intent, the applicant proposes to develop a residence on the currently undeveloped lot. The proposed development will adhere to the design requirements as dictated by the Unified Development Code.
