Richardson, Planning Manager SUBJECT: Consider a request for a zone change from RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density) District to NC (Neighborhood Commercial) District FILE: 2114-Z STAFF REPORT The Planning Manager recommends approval. Scott Gittinger has applied for a zone change from RM-H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling-Highest Density) District to NC (Neighborhood Commercial) District. The property is located at 7102 Phelan. Mr. Gittinger states that the formerly existing dilapidated structure on the property has been demolished and the property cleared. He would like to construct an office building that would be occupied by a mortgage company and a beauty shop. Mr. Gittinger states that he has tried to purchase the property to the west and north but the title cannot be cleared for financing. Fifty feet east of the subject property is NC zoning. Approximately 110 feet west is a dentist office with a specific use permit in a RM-H District. Mr. Gittinger says that he has spoken with the property owner to the east and she hopes to eventually rezone her property to NC and build a day spa. The Comprehensive Plan designates the subject and surrounding properties as a Community Center. A Community Center is defined as a commercial district that includes shopping centers, high schools, office complexes and higher density residential development.
