Follow Up to the Rezoning Meeting

Published: April 05, 2017

On March 29, the City held a neighborhood meeting at Pecan Creek Elementary to discuss a rezoning request of approximately 29 acres from a Regional Center Residential 1 (RCR-1) District and a Regional Center Commercial Downtown (RCC-D) District to a Commercial Mixed-Use General (CM-G) District. The site is bordered by Lakeview Boulevard, Shady Shores Road, and the I-35E service road. The applicant has expressed an intent to develop the site with a Kroger, a fuel center, and several pad sites for commercial uses. About 47 residents attended the meeting along with staff from Development Services, Engineering, Watershed Protection, Keep Denton Beautiful and Community Affairs. At the meeting, there was a request for a copy of the staff presentation (see attached), and the various permitted uses for CM-G, RCR-1 and RCC-D zoning (see attached).

This rezoning request is scheduled for discussion at the April 12 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, 6:30 p.m. at City Hall, 215 E. McKinney. If you have any questions, please contact Julie Wyatt, Senior Planner, at (940) 349-8585 or Julie.Wyatt@cityofdenton.com.

There were also several questions on current and future planned road projects unrelated to this rezoning request. Staff will work with representatives from both Home Owners Associations (HOA) to schedule another meeting to discuss road projects in the area and on our Mobility Plan (see attached). Thanks.
