Applicant Presentation
The applicant, Jason Weatherman, explained that there will be a driveway there whether it is R-1
or R-2 and he doesn’t think there will be issues with traffic. He also suggested that it would have
to go through planning to promote erosion control.
Speakers Opposed – no one spoke in favor
Concerns: The commission already changed this property from R-2 to R-1, water runoff issues,
grass not being mowed, and does not abut R-2.

Discussion
Commissioner Howerton asked if it would meet our code to build on. Commissioner Hunt
wondered if the neighbor to the left would like a house that close. Commissioner Dupree had
concerns about tiny houses. Commissioner Bertram reminded the commission that their concern
is whether or not it meets the criteria. Davis said that if passed, the next step would be a plan
review for the site (reviewed by our engineers) and a building plan review by the inspection
company to make sure it meets all setbacks and code requirements.
Motion was made by Commissioner Nance to recommend REPLAT/RP-01-2026, seconded by
Commissioner Hunt, and carried with the following vote:
Mary Bertram Aye

DIVISION 2. R-1 SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT
DIVISION 2. R-1 SINGLE-FAMILY DWELLING DISTRICT
Sec. 50-55. General description.
The principal use of land is for single-family dwellings and related recreational, religious and educational
facilities normally required to provide the basic elements of a balanced and attractive residential area. It has been
sub-divided based on minimum lot size and allowable uses. Larger minimum lot requirements and prohibited uses
have been established to protect existing and proposed low-density residential developments from the potentially
adverse land use impacts associated with other forms of development, promoting and preserving an open, rural
environment on larger parcels of land. All R-1 areas are intended to be defined and protected from the
encroachment of uses not performing a function necessary to the residential environment. Internal stability,
attractiveness order and efficiency is encouraged by providing for adequate light, air and open space for dwellings
and related facilities and through consideration of the proper functional relationship of each element.

general industrial district. Buildings in this district should be architecturally attractive and surrounded by
landscaped yards.

(3) All of the uses permitted under this section shall have their primary operations conducted entirely
within enclosed buildings and shall not emit any dust or smoke or noxious odor or fumes outside of the
buildings housing the operation or produce a noise level at the property line that is greater than the
average noise level occurring on the adjacent street. Any article stored temporarily outside of an
enclosed building as an incidental part of the primary operation shall be so screened by ornamental
walls and fences or evergreen planting that it cannot be seen from adjoining public streets or adjacent
lots when viewed by a person standing on the ground level.
(4) The following uses may be permitted on review by the city planning and zoning commission:
a. Animal food manufacturing.
b. Food products processing and packing, including meat processing and packing.
Retail sales are permitted only when incidental and accessory to a permitted principal use in accordance with
