[00:10:04]

YOU KNOW. I GUESS YOU KNOW WHAT I WROTE ON HERE. YOU KNOW, I'M AGAINST THIS PETITION DEVELOPMENT, MAINLY DUE TO BEING SO SMALL FOR FOUR SINGLE HOMES, BECAUSE THERE'S A REASON WHY IT WAS ALREADY ESTABLISHED TO BE IN THE ZONING PLAN THAT THEY SAID. SO I DON'T SEE WHY THEY NEED TO CHANGE IT. YOU KNOW, I JUST DON'T AGREE WITH IT. AND I HOPE YOU GUYS CONSIDER MY OPINION BECAUSE I AM A HOMEOWNER. I'VE BEEN THERE FOR LIKE 20 YEARS. I LOVE THE AREA WHERE I LIVE, AND I JUST DON'T WANT THAT TO BE BUILT LIKE THAT. I DON'T THINK IT'S FEASIBLE. AGAIN, I WILL INVITE YOU GUYS TO GO TAKE A LOOK AT IT, BECAUSE IT'S DIFFERENT WHEN YOU SEE THIS HERE THAN WHEN YOU GO AND LOOK AT THAT LOT. I CAN'T SPEAK FOR ANYBODY ELSE, BUT I'M SURE. BUT I'VE CERTAINLY SEEN A LOT. CAN YOU STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR US, PLEASE? MY NAME IS CARLA FLORES. K A R L A FLORES F L O R E S. AND MY ADDRESS IS 1611 OLD NOONDAY ROAD. OKAY. ANY COMMISSIONER HAVE A QUESTION FOR MISS FLORES? ANY. ARE YOU NEXT DOOR? I AM LITERALLY ONE WITH THE 200. I MEAN WITH THE 200 AND THE HOUSE IN THE MIDDLE.

OKAY, WE'RE NOT THE MIDDLE. IT'S IT'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S PEACH AND IT'S THERE'S THREE HOUSES THERE RIGHT NOW. I'M THE ONE AND THE, THE FIRST AFTER PEACH STREET. OKAY. BEFORE FIFTH STREET. OKAY. AND MY NEIGHBOR HERE IS LIKE, BEHIND ME, LIKE TWO HOUSES. AND SHE'S ACTUALLY CLOSER THAN ME. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. AND I WILL BE AT THIS AT THE NEXT MEETING AND I'LL BE MORE PREPARED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND PRESENCE. YES, MA'AM. WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK? STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS. FOR THE RECORD, MY NAME IS KAYLA. WITH A Q Q U E I L A DOS SANTOS AND I LIVE AT 1530 SOUTH ACADEMY. I. SO FIRST OFF, I WANT TO FOLLOW UP. YOU KNOW, YOU STOPPED BY YESTERDAY JUST TO SEE IF ANYONE WAS PLANNING ON GOING AND I WAS I DON'T HAVE MY PAPER WITH ME BECAUSE I FORGOT IT AT MY DAD'S HOUSE, BECAUSE HE'S ON THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE OF VAN, WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, A TINY TOWN.

BUT I WANTED TO TALK IT THROUGH WITH MY FATHER BEFORE COMING UP HERE AND TALKING TO YOU GUYS. I THINK ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IS THAT PHOTO DOES NOT SHOW AN APPROPRIATE. OKAY, SO THAT THAT AREA, THAT ONE ROAD, IT DEAD ENDS INTO A SHARP TURN. IT IS ALMOST A RIGHT ANGLE. SO WE HAVE PEOPLE CUTTING THROUGH FROM OLD NOONDAY ROAD TO GET UP TO SECOND. SO OUR ROAD IS ALREADY A CUT THROUGH FOR PEOPLE. PEOPLE ZOOM BY AND I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE ADDING FOR PROPERTIES. AND THAT'S GOING TO BE LIKE 4 TO 8 CARS ADDITIONALLY ON THAT TINY ROAD. AND IT IS NOT AN AVENUE, IT IS ACTUALLY JUST A STREET. IT IS A BARELY TWO WAY. IF THERE'S EVER ANYONE DOING LAWN WORK IN THAT AREA, IT CLOGS UP THE ENTIRE STREETS THAT EVERYONE'S FLASHING THEIR LIGHTS TO KNOW, TO TURN AROUND BECAUSE YOU'LL GET STUCK. IT'S JUST NOT ENOUGH ROOM FOR ADEQUATE PARKING OR HAVING ADEQUATE SPACE. THE NEXT THING IS, I, I LOVE IT. YOU HAVE BEEN THERE FOR TEN YEARS. I AM A FIRST TIME HOME BUYER. I BOUGHT MY HOUSE, I BELIEVE 2021 AND YEAH, IT WOULD BE FIVE YEARS IN JUNE AND I BOUGHT THE NEWEST HOUSE. IT WAS A BRAND NEW HOUSE AND THE FIRST OWNER IN THAT HOUSE BUILT ON THAT LOT.

IT IS A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE, AND I HAD BEEN PLANNING TO BUILD A HOME. THAT WAS WHAT I WANTED TO DO WITH MY DAUGHTER. I AM VERY PARTICULAR. I KNEW I HAD, I HAD MY LITTLE POINTS AND WHAT KEPT SNAGGING ME UP WAS I WANTED OLD GROWTH TREES. I WANTED AN ACTUAL YARD, AND RIGHT NOW ALL THE NEW HOMES THAT ARE BEING BUILT ARE BEING BUILT FOR YOUNG PROFESSIONALS, AND THAT MEANS NOT HAVING A YARD TO MAINTAIN, NOT HAVING TO HAVE AN EXTRA RESPONSIBILITY, WHICH I EAGERLY WANTED. I WANTED THE GREENERY. I WANTED TO BE ABLE TO HAVE MY DOGS AND MY CATS BE ABLE TO USE

[00:15:04]

SO OUR OUR STREET IS A DEAD END WITH THAT SHARP TURN. AND IT IS IT IS A CUT THROUGH AND I NEED MY DAUGHTER ROLLERBLADES RIDES BIKE IS JUST VERY ACTIVE. AND WHEN I GOT THE LETTER THAT YOU GUYS WERE GOING TO BE BUILDING THE RUNNING TRAIL BEHIND MY HOUSE, I WAS LIKE, OH MY GOD, THANK YOU, BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO PETITION FOR SIDEWALKS TO BE PUT IN. IT'S JUST NOT SAFE TO BE ON THAT ROAD. I JUST CAN'T IMAGINE ADDING MORE TRAFFIC. THANK, THANK, THANK YOU THAT THE THE THE ZONING MAP BACK UP THERE, PLEASE. I DON'T I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING, BUT IS HOW MANY HOUSES IT'S IT'S R1 A HOW MANY HOUSES COULD BE BUILT ON THIS LOT IF IT REMAINS OUR LIMIT. THREE LOTS, THREE AT ONE. ANY ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THIS. LET ME LET ME JUST REASSURE YOU AND EVERYBODY ELSE. I'VE DRIVEN ON THE STREET AND DRIVEN BY THERE. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THIS LADY? ALL RIGHT. ARE THERE OTHERS HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? IS IS THE APPLICANT HERE DOROTHY JOHNSON OR LOUISE SHANKLIN? NOT HERE. PART THE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS IS TO APPROVE. BUT THE DECISION IS THE COMMISSION'S. IS THERE A COMMISSIONER WHO WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION? MR. CHAIRMAN, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO DENY Z 20 5-035. SECOND. SECOND MOTION HAS BEEN MADE AND SECONDED TO DENY THIS ZONING REQUEST. ANY ANY DISCUSSION, IF NOT ALL THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE

[00:20:10]

[V.4. Z25-036 FRANCISCO OLIVARES (625 EAST ROSEDALE STREET) Request that the Planning and Zoning Commission consider recommending a zone change from R-1B, Single-Family Residential District to RPO, Restricted Professional Office District on Lot 2 of NCB 227, one lot containing approximately 0.17 acres of land located east of the southeast intersection of East Rosedale Street and Carlyle Avenue (625 East Rosedale Street). The applicant is requesting the zone change to operate the property as a barbershop.]

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A ZONING CHANGE TO OPERATE TO A BARBERSHOP ON THE ON THE PROPERTY. ADJACENT PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH AND THE WEST. THERE YOU SEE OUR WENDY, US AND OUR DEVELOPED WITH SINGLE FAMILY HOMES IN THE CHURCH. ADJACENT PROPERTIES TO THE EAST ARE ZONED C-2 GENERAL COMMERCIAL. THE ONE THERE IS DEVELOPED WITH AN AUTO SHOP.

THE TITLE OF FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE IDENTIFIES THE PROPERTY AS SINGLE FAMILY MEDIUM LOW DENSITY, SO APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST WOULD AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO OFFICE. JUST TO ADD THE TITLE OF FIRST COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. ENCOURAGES MIXED USE CORRIDORS AND TRANSITIONAL ZONING BETWEEN RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL AREAS. SO THE PROPOSED RPO ZONING ALIGNS WITH THESE OBJECTIVES BY PROVIDING A BUFFER BETWEEN HIGHER INTENSITY COMMERCIAL USES AND RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. THERE YOU CAN SEE THE SUBJECT PROPERTY THERE AT THE TOP, TO THE SIDE, AND THE OTHER VIEWS ALONG ROSEDALE. THE AREA INCLUDES A MIX OF RESIDENTIAL HOMES AND COMMERCIAL BUSINESSES. SO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY THAT YOU SAW THERE HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE 1993. THE APPLICANT PLANS TO CONTINUE OPERATING AS A BARBERSHOP, AND RENOVATIONS ARE CURRENTLY UNDERWAY TO PREPARE THE BUILDING FOR REOPENING. OF THE 17 NOTICES MAILED, NO NOTICES WERE RETURNED IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION TO THE REQUEST, AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST. THANK YOU SHEILA. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? IF NOT, ARE THERE PERSONS HERE WHO'D LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? THAT IS THE APPLICANT HERE? YES, HERE. WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY ANYTHING? YEAH. PLEASE. PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD. YES, SIR. MY NAME IS PHILIP OLIVARES, AND I'M SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF MY DAD, FRANCISCO. HE'S THE BUILDING OWNER. SO BASICALLY, HE'S BEEN OPERATING THERE SINCE 1996 THROUGH 2024. HE RECENTLY DECIDED TO RETIRE AFTER 29 YEARS OF BEING THERE. THERE'S A LADY THAT GREW UP IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD ALSO VISITING HIS SHOP, YOU KNOW, WITH THE KIDS THAT ACTUALLY IS A BEAUTICIAN NOW. SO SHE'S THE ONE THAT WANTS TO TAKE OVER THE PROPERTY AND LEASE IT OUT AS A, AS A BARBER AS WELL. SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HOPING FOR, KEEPING IT IN THE, IN THE SAME ENTITY. YES, SIR. CAN I HOPE THAT YOU GOT SOME CONSIDERED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THIS GENTLEMAN? IF NOT, AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AT PRESENT. SO THERE ARE OTHERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM FOR OR AGAINST. IF NOT, THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS IS TO APPROVE, AS A COMMISSIONER LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION. I'LL MOVE TO APPROVE THE 25 036 SECOND MOTION HAS BEEN MADE AND SECONDED TO APPROVE THIS.

[VI. Receive a presentation regarding the status of the Tyler Tomorrow Comprehensive Plan.]

[00:25:04]

AND SO, SO SOME OF THAT HAD WHAT WE DID WAS WE, WE DID A ESSENTIALLY A SCIENTIFIC SURVEY TO TO LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, THE PERCEPTION AND THE, THE, THE FEEDBACK FROM OUR COMMUNITY ON SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES, SOME OF THE REASONS TO LIVE IN TYLER AND WHAT, WHAT RESPONDENTS THOUGHT TYLER NEEDS. AND SO YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THAT ON THE LIST HERE. A LOT OF THESE ARE PRETTY TYPICAL OF OTHER SURVEYS THAT WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST. SOME OF THE TOP THINGS THAT THE RESIDENTS THE COMMUNITY WANTS US TO LOOK AT IS TRAFFIC CONGESTION, PUBLIC SAFETY AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WATER, SEWER AVAILABILITY, AND THEN SOME THINGS TO LOOK AT IN TERMS OF FOR THE FUTURE, YOU KNOW, MORE HOUSING, BETTER TRAFFIC FLOW AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. SO LIKE I MENTIONED, YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR THE PAST YEAR OR SO AT LEAST. AND THIS IS JUST SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE, WE'VE WE'VE BEEN DOING. THERE IS A A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN STEERING COMMITTEE THAT'S BEEN ESTABLISHED, WHICH IS MADE UP OF SOME COMMUNITY LEADERS AND, AND STAKEHOLDERS. AND SO WE'VE, WE'VE BEEN MEETING WITH, WITH THEM TO ESTABLISH TO LOOK AT SOME OF THE FEEDBACK AND THE INFORMATION, THE DATA, AND TO TO HELP FORMULATE THE PLAN. SO BUT AS YOU SEE THROUGH THROUGHOUT THE PAST YEAR, WE'VE HAD SOME EVENTS WITH THE PUBLIC AT FARMERS MARKET, AT THE PARK SERVICE DAY, IN THE NATIONAL NIGHT OUT. ALSO, SOME STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS WITH STAKEHOLDERS, COMMUNITY REPRESENTATIVES, AND AGAIN, TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A HOLISTIC. YOU KNOW, WE TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO TO THE PLAN. AND SO SOME OF THE THEMES THAT WE'VE HEARD BACK THROUGH OUR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PROCESS PROCESS ARE WHAT YOU SEE HERE. THERE'S THERE'S SOME EXERCISES, YOU KNOW, TO SEE IF YOU CAN KIND OF RANK WHAT THINGS WE SHOULD LOOK AT AND WORK ON. AND YOU SEE THOSE ON THE, ON THE LEFT SIDE THERE. SO STREETS, TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PARKS AND OPEN SPACE AND THEN PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE. SO AND SO THE YOU KNOW WE WE TAKE THAT INFORMATION AND AND THAT FEEDBACK AND AND TRYING TO CRAFT A PLAN FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS TO, TO ADDRESS THOSE TO, TO PLAN FOR THOSE AND, AND MEET THE EXPECTATION. AND SO THIS IS.

ESSENTIALLY THE WORKING DRAFT OF THE OF THE VISION STATEMENT IS, YOU KNOW, WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT TYLER STRIVES TO BE THE HEARTBEAT OF EAST TEXAS AND BEYOND. AND AS A RESILIENT NATURAL BEAUTY WITH INNOVATION AND WHERE INNOVATION AND PROSPERITY CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL. JUST SOME. AND YOU KNOW HOW WE DO THAT THROUGH GREAT, GREAT PLACES, GREAT NEIGHBORHOODS, GREAT INSTITUTIONS. AND SO THAT'S GO BACK INSIDE FOR A SECOND. SO THIS IS ESSENTIALLY MEANT TO ESTABLISH, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE FORMULATE THE PLAN CRAFT THE CRAFT, ALL THE RECOMMENDATIONS. THIS IS THE BASIS FOR WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO ACHIEVE. AND, AND RECOGNIZES ALL THE SOME OF THE POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES OF TYLER RIGHT NOW. YOU KNOW, WE DON'T WANT TO WE WANT TO KEEP DOING WHAT'S WORKING AND THEN KEEP IMPROVING ON WHAT WHAT NEEDS TO BE IMPROVED ON. SO SO SOME OF THE THINGS IN THE PLAN THAT YOU MIGHT EXPECT TO SEE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS, IN TERMS OF THE PUBLIC ADOPTION PROCESS AND PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS, ARE SOME OF THESE PLAN TOPICS. AND SO WE'RE LOOKING AT LAND USE. WE'RE JUST GOING TO LOOK AT LAND USE AND DEVELOPMENT. HOW WE YOU KNOW, WHEN WE DO HERE EVERY MONTH, YOU KNOW, HOW YOU KNOW HOW IT'S GOING TO GUIDE THOSE DECISIONS. FUTURE LAND USE MAP AND AND PLACE TYPES AND THEN ALSO POPULATION PROJECTIONS BASED OFF OF THE THE PLAN FUTURE USES.

AND SO AND THIS ALL KIND OF TIES TOGETHER BUT HOUSING AND NEIGHBORHOODS. SO THE PLAN WILL

[00:30:04]

OKAY. AND AND YOU GOT A LOCATION. NOT THIS TIME. NOT NOT THIS TIME. OKAY. WELL, IT SOUNDS LIKE A STELLAR PLAN FOR MY HOMETOWN. I HOPE YOU'LL CONTINUE TO MAKE IT A BETTER, BETTER PLACE TO LIVE. ANY ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION? BECAUSE I KNOW WE'LL BE INTIMATELY INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS. ARE THERE THINGS WE SHOULD BE INVOLVED WITH A LITTLE EARLIER IN THIS SYSTEM, THE COMMISSION ITSELF, OR IS IT REALLY MORE THINGS THAT WOULD NOT AFFECT US SPECIFICALLY? IF THIS IS KIND OF, YOU KNOW, THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE FOR A YEAR, AND THIS IS KIND OF OUR FIRST PRESENTATION. YEAH. YEAH. FROM A FROM AN ADOPTION STANDPOINT, YOU KNOW, THAT YOU WILL BE INVOLVED IN THAT. I THINK WE WILL HAVE THE PLAN FOR ESSENTIALLY PUBLIC COMMENT, YOU KNOW, AND SO WE DO PLAN ON BRINGING THIS UP AT OUR NEXT OR NEXT FEW MEETINGS TO THE, TO THE COMMISSION. AND IF TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU ALL ARE AWARE OF WHAT'S WHAT'S COMING AND IF THERE'S ANY

[00:35:03]
