ATTACHMENTS: Exhibit EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Currently, several accessory uses and structures have been left off of Table 4.3-1 as well as some need to change from allowed by right to being allowed by a Specific Use Permit. Other uses need to be taken off the allowed use category. ANALYSIS The attached Exhibit shows in red the areas that are recommended for change. Underline items are proposed to be added while cross thru are to be eliminated. It is recommended that storm shelters be allowed in all districts as well as residential garages that are detached and sheds be allowed in the Old Town Core. It is also recommended that a new category of accessory uses such as electric vehicle charging stations be allowed in residential areas that are non-commercial in nature. Another significant change is that outdoor storage in commercial and industrial areas be allowed only with a specific use permit instead of being allowed by right. The last recommendation is that an accessory garage apartment have a maximum square footage no larger than the floor area of the garage with a maximum size of 800 sq. ft. and that a secondary accessory dwelling unit be no larger than 800 sq. ft. and not be allowed in the R-1 or R-2 district.

Planning and Zoning Commission AGENDA ITEM REPORT MEETING: Planning and Zoning Commission - 29 Oct 2024 CONTACT: Maurice Schwanke, Planning/EDC DEPARTMENT: Planning Coordinator SUBJECT: Discuss, consider and act regarding the approval of an amendment to the Haslet Zoning Ordinance of the Old Town District Standards (“OT-C” Old Town Core and “OT-E” Old Town Expansion). 1) Staff Presentation 2) Public Hearing 3) Discuss, consider and act. ATTACHMENTS: Exhibit 1. PH paper Notice for 10-29-24 pz (002)_Page_3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Currently, a discrepancy exists between the Area and Height Regulations and the Yard Setback and Garage Location Options Exhibits contained in the ordinance. ANALYSIS The attached Exhibit shows in red the areas that are being proposed by an ordinance amendment that will match the original intent and clarify for use by potential developers and City Staff. In developments outside of the “Old Town District” all setbacks are measured solely from the property line, however, due to the reduced lot size of many of the lots and pre-existing conditions setbacks are a combination measured from the back of curb, back of sidewalks and property lines.
