A. PD24-0002 Hold a public hearing and consider making a recommendation to City Council regarding a request by Aimee Bissett of 97 Land Company on behalf of the property owner, Greater Texas Land Resources, LP, to rezone approximately 25.96 acres from a Residential 2 (R2) zoning district to a Planned Development with Mixed-Use Neighborhood (PD-MN) and Public Facilities (PD-PF) base zoning districts. The subject site is generally located at the northwest corner of the intersection of North Elm Street and North Locust Street in the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas (PD24-0002, Jefferson North Elm, Ashley Ekstedt)
My position is neutral because I both support and oppose aspects of the request. The farmhouse has been altered so greatly it is no longer historically viable without much restoration. My interest in buying/moving it was squashed due to extreme cost and more damage that would be done by the move. The developer & Denton Parks & Rec. have planned to preserve as much as possible on the site. The long-term commitment needed from a transient population to sustain a garden there may not be realistic.
I oppose this request because this is an historical property with old growth trees that ought to be preserved. Denton needs to do better saving history for future generations and better management of our natural resources.
We are new to Denton and this area. We oppose this type of development due to the traffic it will create. We have seen the Traffic study and it appears that it was only done for Elm and Locust. What about all the other streets especially Windsor going west that is already busy and no lights to slow the traffic in this residential and parks areas. I saw the growth predictions but before any more large multi-family developments get built the road situations need to be expanded and improved.
