Owner / Applicant: Walter B. Welborn Site Location: 3101 6th St., 3108-3112 5th and 1301 W. Berry Mapsco: 76Z Proposed Use: Mini-warehouse facility Request: From: “BU/SH-3” Berry University Form Based Code Shopfront 3 stories, “BU/RA-3”
Berry University Form Based Code Residential Attached 3 stories To: “PD/BU/SH-3” PD Planned Development for all uses in “BU/SH-3” Berry
University Form Based Code Shopfront 3 stories plus three story mini-warehouse with basement, maximum height 40 ft.; site plan included.
Land Use Compatibility: Requested change is not compatible. Comprehensive Plan Consistency: Requested change is not consistent. Background: The proposed site is located at the northeast corner of W. Berry Street and 6th Street. The applicant is requesting a zoning change from BU/SH-3 and BU/RA-3 to “PD/BU/SH-3” Planned Development for all uses in “BU-SH-3” Berry University plus four-story mini-warehouse; site plan included. The applicant would like to rezone the proposed site to build a four-story mini-warehouse. The proposed site was rezoned in 2016 as part of the Berry University form-based code. The site is primarily surrounded by single-family lots with the railroad directly adjacent to the eastern property line. The Berry/University Form based Code was approved earlier this year in order to provide regulations and guidance for the orderly and consistent development and redevelopment of the area that The Code is intended to support the residential and commercial needs of TCU while preparing the area for the planned future rail station at Cleburne Ave. The Code was written for density in the appropriate locations and to encourage pedestrian activity and an improved quality of the public areas, especially sidewalks and storefronts. The addition of a mini warehouse would not be in line with the vision of the area that would encourage commercial activity along Berry St. and residential growth in the inner block.
Zoning Commission Recommendation: Approval as Amended for 3 story with basement, maximum height 40 ft. by a vote of 8-1
Opposition: 21 Emails Support: Hemphill Corridor Task Force, South Hemphill
Heights NA, Shaw-Clarke NA, Rosemont NA, 16 Emails, petitions with 101 signatures

Development Impact Analysis: 1. Land Use Compatibility
The applicant is proposing a zoning change from “BU/SH-3” and “BU/RA-3” to “PD/BU/SH-3” Planned Development for all uses in “BU/SH-3” Berry University Berry University Form Based Code Residential Attached 3 stories plus four-story mini-warehouse; site plan included. Surrounding land uses are primarily single-family with commercial along Berry St. to the west and a railroad along the eastern property line. The proposed zoning for this site is not compatible at this location.
2. Comprehensive Plan Consistency The 2017 Comprehensive Plan designates the subject property as Neighborhood Commercial. The requested zoning change is not consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan policies:
• Separate incompatible land uses with buffers or transitional uses. Some land uses have attributes such as height, proportion, scale, operational characteristics, traffic generated, or appearance that may not be compatible with the attributes of other uses. (pg. 38)
Based on the lack of conformance with the future land use map and policy stated above the proposed zoning is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
