PUD2021-00003 Philip Zevenbergen, Associate Planner, Metropolitan Area Planning Department will present an application on behalf of David and Kristina Dickerson. The property is currently zoned SF-5 Single-Family Residential, TF-3 Two-Family Residential, and B Multi-Family Residential. The applicants are requesting a Planned Unit Development zoning district. The PUD would limit the permitted and conditional uses to those associated with the GO General Office (GO) zoning district. The subject site is approximately 1.3 platted acres located two blocks west of North Seneca on the south side of North McLean Boulevard (560 N. Exposition). The applicant has indicated that the requested PUD zoning would provide maximum flexibility with property development standards as per the GO zoning district. The Metropolitan Area Planning Commission public hearing is scheduled for April 22, 2021. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommended to the applicant that the property be rezoned as a Planned Unit Development. Based upon information available prior to the public hearings, planning staff recommends that the request be APPROVED.

ZON2021-00014 Philip Zevenbergen, Associate Planner, Metropolitan Area Planning Department will present an application on behalf of Darrel Snyder (Owner); Professional Engineering Consultants (Agent). The applicant is requesting a zone change from SF-5 Single Family Residential to LC Limited Commercial for a 0.84 acre parcel at 2202 West 13th Street North, which is generally located on the north side of West 13th Street and within one-block west of North McLean Boulevard. The purpose of the request is to permit restaurant as a use. The property consists of three buildings. Two buildings are located at the rear of the property - a single family dwelling and a detached garage. The third building directly fronts West 13th Street, and is the building the applicant wants to redevelop into a restaurant. County records indicate it was constructed in 1922. The applicant intends to keep the single family dwelling and detached garage as they are now. The site would consist of two different uses. However, both restaurant and residential uses are permitted within the LC Limited Commercial district. The Metropolitan Area Planning Commission public hearing is scheduled for April 22, 2021. RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the information available at the time the staff report was completed, staff recommends APPROVAL of the request subject to Protective Overlay #368 ZON2021-00014 Staff Report: https://www.wichita.gov/Council/DABAgendasMinutes/2021-04- 21%20DAB%206%20ZON2021-00014%20MAPC%20Staff%20Report.docx.pdf • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Board Agenda 6.

McLean Boulevard (560 N. Exposition) District 6 PROPOSED USE: Long Term re-development of the subject area BACKGROUND: The property is currently zoned SF-5 Single-Family Residential, TF-3 Two-Family Residential, and B Multi-Family Residential. The applicants are requesting a Planned Unit Development zoning district. The PUD would limit the permitted and conditional uses to those associated with the GO General Office (GO) zoning district. The subject site is approximately 1.3 platted acres located two blocks west of North Seneca on the south side of North McLean Boulevard (560 N. Exposition). The applicant has indicated that the requested PUD zoning would provide maximum flexibility with property development standards as per the GO zoning district. The site is located within the Delano Neighborhood. The Delano Neighborhood was initially developed in the 1870’s. It includes a variety of residential, commercial, industrial, personal service, and entertainment uses. The majority of commercial uses are located along Douglas Avenue and Seneca Street. In 2019, the City of Wichita adopted the Delano Neighborhood Plan 2019 update, including a recommended Future Land Use Concept Map. That map recommends and identifies the future land use of the subject site as residential. North of the site is the McLean Boulevard right-of-way, the Arkansas River, and the Arkansas River Path. West and south of the subject site is SF-5 residential and is developed with single-family detached dwellings. East of the site is zoned GC General Commercial and is developed with a one-story office building. CASE HISTORY: In April 1887, the area was platted as the McCormick’s 2nd Addition. The D-O Delano Neighborhood Overlay District (“D-O”) was approved in 2003. It is intended to preserve, enhance, and promote the character of the Delano neighborhood as prescribed in the Delano Neighborhood Revitalization Plan. Property development within the District shall comply with the Delano Neighborhood Design Guidelines and the standards of this District and the Underlying zoning District. The design review provisions applicable within the D-O District are intended to recognize the special architectural character and proposed land-use mix of the Delano neighborhood, and to protect the private property values and public investments in the Delano Neighborhood. In the case of conflict between the regulations in this section and those of the Underlying zoning District, the regulations in this section shall prevail. The property was included in the Delano Neighborhood Revitalization Plan in 2001, and is a part of the 2019 Delano Neighborhood Plan update. There are no recent cases associated with the subject property. ADJACENT ZONING AND LAND USE: North: B Single-Family Residential, McLean Boulevard and Arkansas River South: SF-5 Single-Family Residential East: GC Commercial, office West: SF-5 Single-Family Residential PUBLIC SERVICES: The site has access to North McLean Boulevard from North Exposition Street and North Seneca Street from West 3rd Street. Both Seneca Street and McLean Boulevard are paved arterial streets with sidewalks. The site is served by all typical municipal services. There are stops nearby for Wichita Transit bus routes, and a multi-use path is located to the north along the Arkansas River. CONFORMANCE TO PLANS/POLICIES: The proposed rezoning would not be in conformance with the Delano Neighborhood Plan. The 2019 Delano Neighborhood Plan includes a Future Land Use map, which depicts the site as appropriate for “residential use.” The Wichita: Places for People Urban Infill plan identifies the site as being located within the Established Central Area which provides opportunities for increasing housing densities. The adopted Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan, titled the Community Investments Plan, ZON2021-00008 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 2 identifies the site as located within the Established Central Area. The Established Central Area generally consists of the downtown core area and mature neighborhoods surrounding it in a roughly three-mile radius. The Comprehensive Plan’s 2035 Wichita Future Growth Concept Map identifies this location as “residential,” which includes a range of housing densities and types includes, but is not limited to, single- family detached homes, semi-detached homes, zero lot line units, patio homes, duplexes, townhouses, apartments and multi-family units, condominiums, mobile home parks, and special residential accommodations for the elderly (assisted living, congregate care and nursing homes). Elementary and middle schools, churches, play-grounds, small parks and other similar residential-serving uses are located in these areas. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommended to the applicant that the property be rezoned as a Planned Unit Development. Based upon information available prior to the public hearings, planning staff recommends that the request be APPROVED. This recommendation is based on the following findings: 1. The zoning, uses and character of the neighborhood: North of the site is the McLean Boulevard right-of-way and the Arkansas River with the Arkansas River Path and a single-family residence. West and south of the subject site is SF-5 residential and developed with single-family detached dwellings. East of the site is zoned GC General Commercial and is developed with a one-story office building. 2. The suitability of the subject property for the uses to which it has been restricted: The property is currently zoned SF-5 Single-Family Residential, TF-3 Two-Family Residential, and B Multi- Family Residential. The mix of residential uses allowed by current zoning is suitable for the neighborhood based on the surrounding context and community plans. 3. Extent to which removal of the restrictions will detrimentally affect nearby property: The Planned Unit Development (“PUD”) zoning District could potentially create increased traffic on residential streets that have parking on both sides that reduces through traffic down to one lane. Introduction of the PUD could allow development to encroach into the established residential neighborhood west of the site. 4. Relative gain to the public health, safety and welfare as compared to the loss in value or the hardship imposed upon the applicant: This is an up-zoning which does not result in a loss or hardship to the applicant compared to the existing zoning. 5. Conformance of the requested change to the adopted or recognized Comprehensive Plan and policies: The requested zoning change is not consistent with the Delano Neighborhood Plan. The requested rezoning is partially consistent with the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan, named the Community Investments Plan, identifies the site as within the Established Central Area - the downtown core and mature neighborhoods surrounding it in a roughly three-mile radius. The Plan’s 2035 Wichita Future Growth Concept Map identifies this location as “residential,” The Comprehensive Plan’s 2035 Wichita Future Growth Concept Map identifies this location as “residential,” which includes a range of housing densities and types . 6. Impact of the proposed development on community facilities: Existing public water and sewer at the site would accommodate uses under the proposed PUD zoning. The requested rezoning would allow for a mix residential and office uses. The existing infrastructure would be able to ZON2021-00008 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 3 accommodate any increased demand.

Recently within the Delano transitional fringe area there have been many properties changing from commercial/industrial to mixed-use. Directly east of this property there is GC - General Commercial zoning classification; the least restrictive commercial zoning district. Directly west and south of this property there is SF-5 Single-Family zoning classifications and with some TF-5 Two-Family zoning intermixed within the SF-5 areas; generally the most restrictive urban zoning districts. To the northeast of the property there is a small parcel having B-Multi-Family zoning classification. North of the property are civic uses such as museums and parks separated by the Arkansas River. The subject property has views of unique iconic Wichita landmarks. It is also situated along MacLean Boulevard an arterial street and connector of downtown to west Wichita. The present land use for the bulk of the property is a medical therapy business. The business performs speech, physical, occupation, and similar therapies with a focus on helping children and families succeed. The owners have plans to offer other related personal care and personal improvement services such as massage therapy to further enhance their offerings. Other existing land uses include rental homes. While the property is already a mixed-use development this PUD is intended to allow for the property to redevelop into a more conventional mixed-use development with the potential for a mix of residential and office type uses as set forth herein. The property is within the D-O Delano Neighborhood Overlay District so there are many existing provisions that protect the neighboring single family homes. This PUD is crafted to balance and enhance the needs of owners being and to enhance a transitional zoning situated at the edge of urban redevelopment along with the requirements of the D-O Neighborhood Overlay District. Principally the Land uses proposed are those of the GO – General Office with other land uses being permitted for the enhanced desired offerings. This PUD reflects the highest and best uses for the subject property while provisioning for balanced needs of the neighboring properties. Parcel Descriptions: Gross Area = 1.54 Ac. or 66,888 sq. ft. Parcel 1 = 0.92 Ac. or 39,908 sq. ft. Parcel 2 = 0.62 Ac. or 26,980 sq. ft. ZON2021-00008 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 5 1.

PROPOSED USE: To develop existing small retail building into a restaurant. BACKGROUND: The applicant is requesting a zone change from SF-5 Single Family Residential to LC Limited Commercial for a 0.84 acre parcel at 2202 West 13th Street North, which is generally located on the north side of West 13th Street and within one-block west of North McLean Boulevard. The purpose of the request is to permit restaurant as a use. The property consists of three buildings. Two buildings are located at the rear of the property - a single family dwelling and a detached garage. The third building directly fronts West 13th Street, and is the building the applicant wants to redevelop into a restaurant. County records indicate it was constructed in 1922. The applicant intends to keep the single family dwelling and detached garage as they are now. The site would consist of two different uses. However, both restaurant and residential uses are permitted within the LC Limited Commercial district. The applicant desires to develop the site as a restaurant as permitted in Limited Commercial (which does not restrict the size or the ability to have a drive-thru). The applicant would also like the ability to have the option of using the site for retail. Staff recommends a protective overlay in order to meet the needs of the applicant’s desire to develop the property and minimize negative impacts to surrounding properties. The protective overlay would restrict the uses on the site to those permitted by-right in the NR Neighborhood Retail zoning district except permit restaurant as allowed in Limited Commercial. Restaurant is permitted in NR Neighborhood Retail, but it is restricted to 2,000 square feet in size and does not permit drive-thru or drive-up services (Section III-D.6.t of the Unified Zoning Code). Property to the north and west are zoned B Multi-Family residential and are apartments and a medical service building. Property to the east is zoned GO General Office with office uses. Property to the south, across West 13th Street, is zoned GO and is undeveloped. CASE HISTORY: The property is unplatted. The request for the zone change does not trigger a requirement to plat the property. However, the Subdivision Regulations state that a remodel that is greater or equal to 30 percent may trigger the requirement. This is handled through the building permit process with the Metropolitan Area Building and Construction Department. ADJACENT ZONING AND LAND USE: North: B Apartments South: GO Undeveloped East: GO Offices West: B Medical Service PUBLIC SERVICES: Access to the site off of West 13th Street North, which is a pave, four-lane arterial with sidewalks on both sides. Public water and sewer already serve the existing building. CONFORMANCE TO PLANS/POLICIES: The Community Investments Plan (the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan) includes the 2035 Wichita Future Growth Concept Map. The Map identifies the area in which the site is located to be appropriate for “Commercial”. This category is described in part as follows: “Encompasses areas that reflect the full diversity of commercial development intensities and types typically found in a large urban municipality. Convenience retail, restaurants, small offices, and personal service uses are located in close proximity to, and potentially mixed with, residential uses.” In addition, the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive plan identifies the Established Central Area and recommends an Urban Infill Strategy for the Established Central Area. The Wichita: Places for People Plan provides recommendations for urban infill development in the Established Central Area. The subject site is located within the Established Central Area in an area identified as Neighborhood Hub within an Area of Stability by the Places for People Plan. A neighborhood hub is defined as “a commercial or mixed-use hub of less than 40,000 square feet, primarily occurring on one to two blocks of the neighborhood, or centered ZON2021-00014 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 2 on an intersection. A neighborhood hub provides a range of goods and services that can satisfy the daily needs of the surrounding neighborhoods. Development is of smaller scale, with individual spaces typically less than 2,500 square feet in size…” RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the information available at the time the staff report was completed, staff recommends APPROVAL of the request subject to Protective Overlay #368? Protective Overlay #368 1. The site shall be restricted to uses permitted by-right in the NR Neighborhood Retail zoning district except Restaurant shall be permitted as allowed in LC Limited Commercial. This recommendation is based on the following findings: 1. The zoning, uses and character of the neighborhood: Property to the north and west are zoned B Multi-Family residential and are apartments and a medical service building. Property to the east is zoned GO General Office with office uses. Property to the south, across West 13th Street, is zoned GO and is undeveloped. Though there is commercial zoning present, it is less intensive than Limited Commercial and the immediate area is predominantly residential in use. This includes the single family residence on the subject lot. The protective overlay permits retail services and a restaurant use that are more compatible with the surrounding area than full Limited Commercial zoning. 2. The suitability of the subject property for the uses to which it has been restricted: The property is zoned SF-5 and is developed with a single family home. In the past, the building fronting West 13th Street was in retail or other small commercial uses. A zone change is required in order to be in compliance with the Unified Zoning Code. The zone change request allows the property to continue to function as it has in the past, but in compliance with the zoning code. 3. Extent to which removal of the restrictions will detrimentally affect nearby property: The request for Limited Commercial could introduce a number of uses that would not be compatible with the surrounding residential uses, including the single family residence on the subject lot. The Projective Overlay restricting the uses to those in NR Neighborhood Retail, except for allowing the restaurant use to function as in Limited Commercial, will minimize negative impacts with the surrounding area while providing the opportunity for in-kind development with the nearby GO General Office. 4. Length of time subject property has remained vacant as zoned: The site has been developed in its current state since the 1920s. 5. Relative gain to the public health, safety and welfare as compared to the loss in value or the hardship. Denial would represent a loss of economic opportunity to the applicant or property owner. Approval would represent gain for the applicant and provide new economic opportunity with a business that serves the surrounding area, which is considered a gain for public health, safety, and welfare. 6. Conformance of the requested change to the adopted or recognized Comprehensive Plan and policies: The Community Investments Plan (the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive Plan) includes the 2035 Wichita Future Growth Concept Map. The Map identifies the area in which the site is located to be appropriate for “Commercial”. This category is described in part as follows: “Encompasses areas that reflect the full diversity of commercial development intensities and types typically found in a large urban municipality. Convenience retail, restaurants, small offices, and ZON2021-00014 Metropolitan Area Planning Commission Page 3 personal service uses are located in close proximity to, and potentially mixed with, residential uses.” In addition, the Wichita-Sedgwick County Comprehensive plan identifies the Established Central Area and recommends an Urban Infill Strategy for the Established Central Area. The Wichita: Places for People Plan provides recommendations for urban infill development in the Established Central Area. The subject site is located within the Established Central Area in an area identified as Neighborhood Hub within an Area of Stability by the Places for People Plan. A neighborhood hub is defined as “a commercial or mixed-use hub of less than 40,000 square feet, primarily occurring on one to two blocks of the neighborhood, or centered on an intersection. A neighborhood hub provides a range of goods and services that can satisfy the daily needs of the surrounding neighborhoods. Development is of smaller scale, with individual spaces typically less than 2,500 square feet in size…” 7. Impact of the proposed development on community facilities: Approval of the request should generate no additional impacts on community facilities. Existing public infrastructure at the site will accommodate the proposed use. Attachments: 1. Aerial Map 2. Zoning Map 3.
