Details of Request:
The applicant, S.W. Howell, is requesting a zone change from F, is requesting a zone
change from FD, Future Development District, to an LI, Light Industrial District, on a
Commercial District, on a 4.00 Acre Tract of Land located in Section 25, Block 42, T-2-S,
T&P Co Survey, Ector County, Texas.
Current Zoning: Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ)
Surrounding Land Use:
Properties located to the north zoned LI, Light Industrial District. Properties to the east,
south, and west, are zoned FD, Future Development District.
Analysis:
The property involved in this request is located southeast of the intersection of Reed Ave and E
Pearl Rd. The site is currently designated Future Development (FD) and is currently vacant and
undeveloped. The applicant is S.W. Howell, and the purpose of the original zoning request is to
create Light Industrial (LI) development in the area.
Using the City’s identified priorities contained in the City of Odessa’s Comprehensive Plan to
evaluate zoning amendments, the following comments are offered:
Comprehensiveness: This request is not out of line with the City of Odessa’s Comprehensive
Plan. The property is located near to FD, Future Development, and Light Industrial District,
which both allow for LI, Light Industrial and the associated uses.
Livability: The proposed Zoning would not have a negative impact on this site or surrounding
properties. The prosed light industrial development is not out of line with development in the area.
Reasonableness: The proposed zoning district will facilitate a reasonable transition between land
uses of varying intensities and would not create a conflict to the existing land uses in the area.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of the zone change from FD, Future Development District,
to an LI, Light Industrial District, subject to condition A.
Condition:
A. That the use and development of this property shall conform to the regulations of LI,
Light Industrial District.
Based upon the preceding analysis, Staff recommends approval of the request.
