We are now going to our individual item for our individual item.

Good afternoon.

My name is Samantha Benavidas, zoning planner with development services.

Item number two is located at 2007 Frio City Road, going from C2 commercial district to C2 CD commercial district with conditional use for parking and or storage long term with a fence height of up to eight feet with all overleaf staying the same.

There were 32 notices mailed, seven in favor, two opposed.

Via the Esperanza and Kelly Park Neighborhood Association are opposed.

Outside 200 feet, 57 are in favor and 22 are opposed.

The existing C2 district is an appropriate zoning for the property in the surrounding area.

The proposed C2 CD district with a conditional use for the parking and or storage long term is not appropriate.

The applicant is requesting a rezoning to permit vehicle storage associated with the record service.

The property is located at the entrance of an established single family residential neighborhood.

If approved, this would introduce an industrial use into an area predominantly designated for medium intensity commercial and low density residential development, making it inconsistent with the existing character and development pattern of the surrounding area.

Staff recommends denial, and the applicant is here to answer any questions.

Very good.

If we could have the applicant, please.

Good afternoon, everybody.

Janie Adetta, 2007, Rio City Road.

So we we are requesting the change zone from C2 to C2 C D parking long term.

From our understanding, when a lot was is designated as parking or long-term storage, COSA has no minimum or maximum requirements to what constituents' parking limits to clarify.

We are requesting the zoning change to park vehicles from C2 to C2 CD parking long term.

Our intentions are to park store vehicles on or about 10 to 15 days before being sent to auction for clients.

We are not in the business of long-term storage as regularly defined by public.

We operate only as short-term storage to repossess vehicles.

The lot is always moving vehicles.

It is dynamic environment where long-term storage cannot function.

The subject property is located within the Lackland Air Force Base Awareness Zone Military Influence Area.

In accordance with the signed memorandum of understanding, JBSA was notified of the proposed request.

The military has indicated that there are no objections to this request.

Preparation for and process.

From the moment we took interest in purchasing the lot, we also began cleaning, getting rid of old clothes debris that was trashed throughout the lot and cleared metal with magnetic sweeper.

We collected countless screws, nails, and other small pieces of metal, which could potentially be hazard to any person or vehicle entered the lot.

We cut and cleared all overgrown branches and weeds that went untouched for years.

This was accomplished prior to purchasing the property.

We went back to check on the lot a couple of days later to find more piles of trash debris that have been dumped on the lot.

In essence, the lot was used as a dump site by violators due to its accessibility from main thoroughfare and being unmonitored for so long.

It took several several days, and uh I too jumped in and said we can do it, we can get it clean.

Further cleanup, once we purchase a lot, a company was hired to clear out the multiple enormous piles of trash, included furniture, tires, huge oversized tree trunks, cinder blocks, and pieces of illegally dumped concrete.

This took several dump truck loads and trips, and it's a significant improvement from when we started.

At this point, we have taken it upon ourselves to have a temporary metal fence installed to keep folks from using the lot as a dump site.

The fence has served as its function, keeping illegal dumpers at bay.

We regularly walk the property to maintain its cleanliness until we can proceed further.

Once completed, we have spoken with the neighbors and have informed them of our idea to use dark green privacy screens as part of the final fencing plans and photos of the after the cleanup.

It's a big huge difference.

In February, we scheduled an appointment with the Office of District 5 Councilwoman Castillo.

Staff reviewed our plans and gave direction within two days meeting of meeting with their staff.

We allowed their advice and attended neighborhood association meeting.

At the meeting, the neighbors were very receptive to our plans and vision for the property at the time.

Many expressed how it was a positive to see the lot cleaned and improved.

At that time, we did collect names and signatures of neighbors who showed support of our plans to build out the corner and secure the property.

We have been communic in communication with neighbors directly adjacent to the property and other neighbors within sight of the lot.

Neighbors who would be directly affected, all have been encouraging knowing the benefits of having added security versus seemingly abandoned feeling of the lot has now.

The direct benefit of backdoor neighbors has been immediate.

After the cleanup of this belligerent of neighbors have told us that they have they no longer see or experience rats, possums, or other rodents that was coming from inside the derelict building and mountains of trash.

One of our direct back neighbors, an elder, has requested in writing to wishes not to have a shrubbery or trees installed or budgeted against the fence line.

Uh request we agreed on, but that is changed.

We were going to have.

Yes, um.

Shrubs, the back side.

Express concerns on follow-up of our visit with the neighborhood association.

There are few people who have been vocal that we should not move forward with the project, contrary to what was told to us in person.

The main point that came across was the wishes for the property to follow a completely different path and plan than what is put forward by us primarily to keep the light lot and zoning as is to follow future development and would include shopping and restaurant space.

We have tried reaching out to those vocal parties, and all attempts have failed at dissuading them from all those ideas.

As a counter, we argue that Frio City Road has and will continue to be an industrial use corridor, a corridor primarily used by commercial vehicles over time.

There has been attempts to build out the area, but past development has gradually faded away due to the one thing that is the lifeblood of small business traffic.

Development currently in construction for Frio City Road, a train bypass bridge, will further hinder any small business development.

Many of our surrounding business neighbors have already planned accordingly and have moved from the area by their own volition or by financial incentives from the city.

We speak from experience first as a family and then as a business who has been in this area for decades.

We feel our plan to continue and operate in the area is the best way to not only meet our demands for growth, but to keep our neighbors safe with continued presence and mindfulness.

As neighbors ourselves, we feel duty bound to the area to keep it safe, secured, and clean.

We don't just work here, we live here, and that is something that we as a family and business can say wholeheartedly.

We know the neighborhood and the needs.

Thank you all for your time, familiar sale and essay tone and recovery.

Thank you, Ms.

Adams.

Thank you.

Uh, any public comment?

Yes, we have a few people signed up to speak.

First, we have Mr.

Ron Segovia, and he is to be followed by Miss Tricia Faya.

Good afternoon, Ron Segovia 5 Shady Cove.

As a former police officer and former councilman, I am very familiar with the area of 2007 Frio City Road.

I hadn't been out there in about 15 years, so I took a drive out there.

Still very much the same, industrial, very much.

Mr.

Arceo has had a business in the area for over 20 years and has maintained it.

He took this lot, rat and critter infested, cleaned it up, took it upon himself.

I advised him, go to the neighborhood, talk to the residents.

He got over 70 signatures in favor.

He is willing to maintain, do whatever.

He came up with a new site, drawing to follow anything that he has to do as far as whatever changes have to be made.

He's even volunteered to landscape the entry to the subdivision and keep his property looking nice.

And that's where we're at.

Thank you.

Thank you, Govia.

Miss Fiona.

Ms.

Faya to be followed by Miss Yvette Rendon.

Ma'am, would you remind me of your name?

Ms.

Garcia is donating three minutes to Ms.

Field.

So Ms.

Field, you will have six minutes.

Hello, Commissioners.

My name is Trisha Fayad.

I come here not only as a president of the neighborhood association, but also a resident of Vilazes Bronza.

Our neighborhood strongly opposes the addition of another industrial type business, especially one located next to our neighborhood and at our community's entrance.

This type of business does not enhance our or support our neighborhood.

Instead, it detracts from its appearance, character, and long-term potential.

Our vision is to see the stretch of Frill City Road Corridor revitalized with businesses that serve residents, attract investment, and contribute positively to the community, not more industrial development.

We recognize that some people believe this area will always remain heavily industrial.

However, communities can and do change.

Redevelopment and thoughtful planning can transform an area much faster than many expect.

With the continued growth surrounding Port San Antonio, this corridor has tremendous potential to become a welcoming gateway with businesses that reflect the progress of the community.

Rather than bringing our neighborhood down with additional industrial uses, we should be investing in opportunities that raise property values, improve quality of life, and create a corridor of residents can be proud of.

We ask our elected officials and decision makers to please support development that aligns with this vision and protects the future of our neighborhood.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, Miss Lyon.

All right.

What's that?

Who's next?

It'll be Miss Yvette Rendon, to be followed by Mr.

Robert Cruz.

Okay.

Hello, good afternoon.

My name is Yvette Rindon, and I also live in the Villa de Esperanza subdivision.

Um I am here today to state clearly that this business will not be a good neighbor.

In fact, they have proven from the very start that they are not being honest with the community.

There are three clear reasons why we cannot trust them.

First, they misled us about the scale of the operation.

On February 12th of this year, Janie Hereda and her brother attended our neighborhood association meeting.

They explicitly promised us that they would not, they would have a maximum of 10 cars on site at any given time.

Yet at the last meeting here, that number suddenly jumped to 30, even 50 cars.

Second, they are hiding the reality of their traffic impact.

It was stated last month that there would be no tow trucks or semi-trucks operating on Frio City Road.

We know this is not true.

Neighbors see their other location down the street, and we know perfectly well that they constantly park and block the middle of Rio City Road.

Third, they have shown a complete lack of respect for our community.

They have insulted our neighborhood, calling it ugly, and questioning how people can even live there.

I have photos to prove right here showing the our neighborhood.

Okay.

They are promising you one thing to get what they want while doing the exact opposite in the streets.

They will not be good neighbors, however.

They will be dishonest neighbors.

Thank you for your time.

All right, thank you.

I just wanted to show those pictures of the homes that are well kept.

And many of these neighbors do not want this uh towing truck there, yet another towing truck.

Very good.

Thank you, Miss Rindon.

Mr.

Cruz.

Thank you.

Good afternoon.

My name Robert Cruz.

My editor is 2124 Kyle de Sod, right behind the uh the place in question.

And I welcome them to come to the our community.

It's the one thing they cleaned it up.

Thank God, clean got all rid of the rats, the opossums.

People were camping out there at the building uh fires, uh just all over the place.

And I didn't know where we could bring photos to the uh to the uh presentation here, and there's a I guess they they missed the photos where cars are parked in their area where cars are on top, where for they have dilapidated is the uh uh doors or uh has privacy doors uh that's not good for their neighborhood, but yeah, I welcome them because it'll bring security for us, lighting for our our neighborhood, lighting for that corner, and also to bring it's a win-win situation, it's a win-win situation for the city, it brings taxes in, which is a good thing, and it's helps out us in it in the in our neighborhood and my the community with the the people who live around us the family they welcome them.

They said yes, bring them on.

It's that we all signed for it and we're for them to to come in uh and put their business there behind us.

It's that we would we they tried having a restaurant, it didn't work.

It it went down, so look at I I we uh we appreciate them coming to our to our name.

Well behind behind our our uh our home.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, Mr.

Cruz.

All right, any further public comment?

That is it.

Alright, Ms.

Adeta, a brief rebuttal, if you'd like to use it.

Ms.

Adeta, you will have three more minutes.

If there's if there's anything that was said that you'd like to address, you don't have to use it.

Okay, then we're gonna go straight to questions.

Uh staff, there was no associated plan amendment.

I'm sorry, this is a district five case, so it is to me for questions.

Um staff, there was no associated plan amendment with this case, correct?

Well, I believe we do have a new site plan.

Sorry, associated plan amendment.

Correct.

There's no plan amendment.

Okay, why not?

Why not?

So it's a part of the Port San Antonio Regional Center plan and it's urban mixed use, which permits up to C2, which is why they're doing the C2 C D, so they can stay within the the plan's recommended zonings.

Okay, um with respect to neighboring properties.

If we look here, we have C3, C3NA going down.

Um are those consistent with the plan for this area, if you know.

I don't believe so.

I think C3 is too intense.

Correct.

C three is not aligned with the urban mixed use, land use.

So those were existing previously, correct?

Correct.

And if we were to go up and down for your city road, we would see other uh properties that are not aligned with the plan.

Um correct, depending on what the land use is.

Um yeah, if it's the same as this one, then yes.

Okay.

Uh this is to either, actually, it's to anyone, I guess.

Uh, but let's let's go with Miss Adeta or Mr.

Cruz.

Uh you know, I think we've talked about restaurants here.

If you would come up one of one or you, one of you or both of you.

Um there was a restaurant, or there was a restaurant at this location, correct?

Correct, yes, sir.

And the building is still standing there?

Yes, sir.

Okay, and uh do you know when that restaurant closed down?

Uh over a year ago.

I'm not sure exactly what date, but it was well over a year ago.

Um a year and a half ago, maybe.

Yeah, perhaps.

I'll call y'all up too, don't worry.

I'll get there.

I promise.

Um, and do you know how long the property was listed for sale prior to your purchase?

It was.

It was closed for maybe a good eight, nine months.

Before we we had interest in purchasing the purchasing the property.

Okay, all right, thank you.

Uh Ms.

Adoda.

Uh Miss Fayad.

All right.

Um, so one of the concerns that was raised, and I don't remember if it was from you, but it was from a member of your neighborhood association, was that this is on entrance to the neighborhood, correct?

It's closed off, you mean?

It is an is this an entrance to your neighborhood?

Yes, entrance and exit.

Yes.

And exit?

Okay.

Yes, sir.

Okay, very good.

Uh are there any other entrances and exits to your neighborhood along Frio City Road?

Uh, not along Frio City Road, those are the only two.

Okay, so I guess I'm trying to understand.

What about Jupiter Street?

Yes, we do have a back entrance that was previously closed uh for many, many, many decades, until the redevelopment of uh habitat homes were built or developed, then they the city reopened Jupiter, and Thompson Place, is that a different neighborhood?

Uh yes, Thompson Place is across the tracks off of uh across from General Hutnell.

Okay, but with respect to West Thompson Place coming off Frio City Road, right there with Carolyn, is that still your neighborhood or no?

Carolyn?

Yeah.

Um, I don't think it's kind of a weird entrance.

Carroll.

That's Kelly Parks area, okay?

Pet street.

All right.

Um now I think you've mentioned you know, I agree with you that we'd love to see redevelopment here.

Uh and you said a neighborhood, a neighborhood restaurant, neighborhood shopping, things like that.

Um do you know how long this property was listed for you?

Yes.

I had closed communication with the previous owners of Julio's cafe.

The only reason why it was shut down, it was not because of slow business, it's because they had a sewage problem, and it was going to cost them way too many dollars that they could not afford.

And they did try to lease it out, and I'm not sure what happened.

And um the first previous owner, they moved to Mexico, and they said they leased it to the other second owners.

And the second owners, that was their reason for closing the restaurant, but it has been very successful for the last five, six years in operation, maybe even more.

They actually didn't shut down till uh the second owner didn't shut down till July 5th of 25.

So it is just a year.

It is not two or three years.

And it's a reason for because of plumbing issues.

That's the only reason.

No, that they were very successful, which might explain the rats.

But another thing, I mean, rats are not good, but possums are very good for the environment, so if I see a possum in my neighborhood, I welcome it because they pick up the ticks.

So, um do you know how long the property was actually listed for sale?

That I do not know.

To be honest with you, I I was not we were not aware, I was not aware that it was for sale.

However, I do know the owner of the property, and he owns multiple multiple properties on Frio City Road.

Uh can we get the amended site plan up?

I know this was brought up by um Mr.

I'm probably gonna ask you and if she wants to speak to it, you can come up to Mr.

Andon if you want to, after Miss Fayad has answered.

So this is the current site plan.

Have you seen this before, Miss Found?

I do not believe I have.

Um now a quick question for staff.

This site plan they'll be bound to, correct?

Correct for this use, they will be bound to it for the conditional use.

So they can do anything else in C2 by right?

Correct.

Uh which would include let's see here.

I get it.

I still get to say pet cemetery, I think.

I do.

Uh so it would include uh a liquor store, not as good.

Um small indoor movie theater, pet cemetery, auto-unlight, truck, oil and lube and tune-up, auto glass type uh tenting, tire repair, gas station, appliance sales and repair, charitable food and clothing banks and dry cleaning, et cetera, right?

Correct.

Anything permitted in C2, they'd be able to do.

Let me ask you, Ms.

Fayot.

Would you feel better?

Because those those uses would still be available if this doesn't work out.

And to the extent that they're doing parking, they're gonna be limited to this site plan here.

Do you understand that?

What I don't understand is how many vehicles will be stored with this site plan.

So they're gonna be limited to 50.

50?

50.

Okay.

All right.

There's four three of 14 to the right and then eight on the left.

Um now I understand that you know this is a more intense use than it's allowed in C2.

That's why we're doing the conditional use.

Um how do you feel about a liquor store going in here?

Um I as a small business owner myself, I do not I do not mind.

Um is I know many liquor store owners, they keep their property clean.

I've never seen trouble, I've never seen fights, I've never seen anything like that.

Come to my neighborhood.

Um so that's from my experience.

Um, be welcomed.

Okay, okay.

Boldega, another restaurant.

Um, there I do speak with the uh port essay uh officials, and they have expressed that they are seeking areas outside of their port assay to bring in more uh offices, companies, um, so on and so forth.

And because it is a close proximity to Port SA, uh, minute away.

Um we feel that that can be something they can expand to and open up like uh offices or or it's not only uh limited to port essay but to anyone that wants to bring a viable business, uh creative work art spaces, uh things like that's what we're looking for.

Something positive, something's gonna positively impact the neighborhood, not bring it down with storage of vehicles, um now you'll see that there are a couple of landscape buffers on this site plan.

Yes.

Uh, does that help at all?

Are those okay?

So where it's okay, Gaia is all.

I'm just trying to see where is um, so on the side of Gaia the Sola, there will be no landscaping, it's just gonna be not at this point.

On Frill City Road.

But we could potentially amend that later.

Okay.

If that were an issue.

She did Janie Hadetta did state that a resident complained that they she did not want landscaping because she's allergic.

Oh, um, so see, that's another thing that we don't trust.

All right.

Uh I'm gonna call Mr.

Cruz up because I know that at least Mr.

Cruz has said he doesn't want the landscape in the back.

Correct?

Yeah.

Um, so uh, you know, there there's some seem to be some communication issues here, but I appreciate your time, Miss Fayon.

Okay.

Uh Mr.

One thing uh while you're walking up, what that you brought up was the parking uh on Frio City Road at their current location.

Is that what I understood correctly?

Okay, sorry, if you can come up here.

Sorry, you have to speak into the microphone because we're on yes, we're on TV.

I mean, not any channel you want to watch.

Okay, but if you f if you're having trouble falling asleep at night, you can find this and and you can watch it.

Um but you know, one thing that we tried to accomplish with the site plan here is keeping area and two entrances to allow trucks to come in and out without having to turn around, and and to make sure that they're not on Frio City Road.

Does that help alleviate your concerns at all?

And if the answer is mean that it's closer to the highway, the um exit of the highway.

Okay.

No, it doesn't make a difference.

Okay.

That's good.

Thank you, Mr.

Mill.

I appreciate it.

Mr.

Cruz, if you'd come up really briefly.

So I'm gonna ask that question.

I know you answered it already, but just to make sure we get it on the microphone.

And while while you're coming up, Mr.

Cruz staff, um those are existing curb cuts, correct?

Correct.

That means there's nothing else has to be done, no, you know, city or state intervention to maintain those entrance and exits.

To my knowledge, no.

They are um already there.

They're driveways that are already established.

Okay, I'll take it.

Mr.

Cruz?

Yes, sir.

Now, one thing when we went back and looked at the site plan, we had this uh 15 foot landscape buffer on the back.

And you did not like that.

No, we have trees back there already.

And those with an i trim.

Or or at least keep keep them at a at bay.

So this will be on their property and they'll be.

I'm sure they will keep them playing.

I'm sure they will.

So did you know about the sewage problem?

No, I didn't.

I did not know about the sewage more at the beginning there was a smell.

Maybe that was it.

But uh at the very end uh the restaurant was declining.

So look it wasn't it wasn't being uh, we didn't have 50 cars parked out there waiting to get uh for lunch, no, declining.

All right, thank you.

Prices were too skyrocketed.

Thank you, Mr.

Cruz.

That's that's a problem for all of us, I think.

Um all right.

I think those are my questions for right now.

Uh I'll open up to my fellow commissioners.

Uh to my left questions, yes, Commissioner Double.

Uh to uh uh Ms.

uh Aurera, if you'd come up for just a sec.

Uh you had mentioned uh railroad bypass bridge.

I'm not from this part of town.

Can you what what is that project?

Um what's the impact?

What's the implication of it?

So that uh project will uh go uh south north from Frio City Road to Sarzamora.

So it's like Frio and Sarzamora.

So they've recently removed homes, removed uh businesses from there, uh because of the train.

There's a train that uh stops and stays there for a long time.

So this has been going on for years and it's just beginning to manifest where they're the city is moving forward with this project.

They've changed the big uh the the um lighting um, and that's what they're preparing for.

It's the railroad crossing between Sarza Mora and Frio City Road of North South.

And and I'm sorry, just to uh so I I can understand.

Is it that they're gonna build a bridge for the railroad or they're building a bridge for the road?

For the vehicles.

Okay, yes.

You had mentioned that you suggested that the that that project would decrease the amount of commercial traffic on Frio.

Correct.

Um compared with now.

Um what's what's the basis?

Could you help explain that to me?

I don't I don't follow.

Through Frio City Road through where uh 2007 Frio City Road, that is more predominantly uh industrial, so vehicles that are going to Monterey, there's a metal place called Monoray.

Uh and and as I was cleaning the property, I noticed that vehicles uh uh on their way to to the dump.

There's uh the um Frio uh it's not a dump, but it's where you can take your some certain trash.

That's what I saw a lot of a lot of traffic in their trucks that were taking their um uh not uh not trash because they don't accept any kind of trash.

Um but maybe they're uh Yeah, so so sorry.

Let me re uh you had made a a comment during your presentation that that this project, this new overpass would decrease the amount of commercial traffic on Frio.

Um but if it's like the trucks are gonna be able to go over the over the overpass, right?

So wouldn't that just provide for less interruptions to traffic?

That would be this.

Less.

Right.

So it might increase the amount of available commercial traffic if trains aren't stopped there.

I at this point, uh the traffic is diverted all the way down to uh almost the intana when the track when the track right now, yes.

Right now.

Right.

So this will reduce the amount of traffic, allow for more circulation.

Yes, sir.

So potentially more access to the businesses on Frio.

Okay, all right, thank you for clarifying that.

Uh to staff, um, on the uh the one stop index here, um, y'all selected the uh layer uh for zoning, um and it it you know zoomed was zoomed out from the map that's included with the staff report.

There we are.

So it it uh shows something different than what I saw on the map.

I'm not saying that it's it uh it's just zoomed out uh from the map that was with the staff report.

I didn't realize down Frio Road there um it shifts from C2, C3 to industrial, um, which was a surprise.

So is that all that I inconsistent uh with the the general plan?

Because we we asked if the C2 was inconsistent, but is the I also inconsistent?

Yes, the I area is currently urban mixed use um to the left of the property on the same side of Frio City.

Across Rio City, there's also some I that's actually community commercial, which is definitely inconsistent with that land use.

Okay, so and for the benefit of the the community and for the rest of the commission, what is the implication of that of that inconsistency?

Like what's what's the city trying to do um by changing the um the general plan?

Yeah, I I would say at least at a high level that this is a part of town that uh has struggled with a lot of incompatible development for many decades, and that the outcome of that plan was to introduce uses of substantially less um intensity than what that area has developed uh as over time.

Okay, all right, great.

Um I mean, and uh the commercial uses, right?

We're talking about neighborhood commercial uses generally.

Is that is that the idea that kind of the character?

Yeah, neighborhood and community commercial in the case right across the street, yeah.

Okay, um the uh because I noticed down uh Frio, there's a number of other you know more intense auto-related uses.

I think a trucking um a trucking company and uh dirt dirty Sanchez garage, um from what you guys can tell.

Are those non-conforming with the existing zoning?

Um, or are those uses uh um conforming but still inconsistent with the general plan?

From a quick look, um so like the auto shops, I believe those properties are zone C3, which would allow that use.

So they're potentially conforming with the zoning, but like you said, not compliant with the land use.

Okay, important.

Thank you.

Um that's it uh for me.

Thank you.

Any further questions to my left?

Yes, Commissioner Sipes.

I guess this is a question for the the applicant.

Um or city staff either or uh looking at the the amended site plan, I'm trying to figure out where exactly that fence along Kaya Desol is located.

Um I'm looking at like a street view image or a Google image of the site, and there's an existing uh well according to the image there's like an existing wood fence, and I'm trying to figure out where where's the property line or where would this proposed fence be?

Would it be up against the sidewalk?

Would it be set back from the sidewalk or where?

If I'm making any sense at all.

I'm looking at the ocean.

Oh, sorry.

Yeah, it I was like, I don't think that's the right one, but does it does look like there is a the property line is set back from the uh curb line per se?

So if I was to make a rough estimate on one stop, it appears that the property line is approximately 20 feet or 19 feet away from the curb line along that entrance.

Okay, okay, great.

Um that's all the questions I have.

Thanks.

Right.

Thank you, Commissioner Sipes.

Any further questions left?

Questions right?

Yes, Commissioner Hina Holsa.

Uh question for staff.

Uh we a lot of uh Port San Antonio has been brought up, but they didn't submit any sort of support denial, their thoughts or anything?

Dreams, wishes.

No, I don't believe that they are directly contacted, as if they're not within 200 feet or on the property within 200 feet.

So unless somebody reached out to them directly, we wouldn't have gotten anything from them.

Understood.

And then someone had mentioned there was 70 letters of support.

Do we have this the city staff have that on file or so when I calculated all the signatures?

There was um I believe 57 total outside 200 feet, and there are seven in favor inside 200 feet.

Okay, and then can you remind me, I think it was somewhere, but seven within 200 feet, but what's the total of houses within 200 feet?

Do we have that?

I'm not too sure.

Oh, like the 32 notices were sent out.

Okay, so not necessarily homes, that's just what the property owners within the area.

Got you.

Uh and then remind me, I think I might have just missed this.

Um the building itself that's currently there, that's gonna be demolished?

Correct, yes, sir.

Okay, okay.

And then Ms.

Hereta, while while you're while you're here, just remind me uh your business is a tow towing company.

Repo, okay.

How long are those cars going to be there?

What once it enters, I know like a rough estimate.

There may be uh 10 to 10 to 15 days at the most.

Okay, so probably no longer than a month.

Okay.

So there is gonna be because someone brought up rats and possums and all these bears, oh my, um, and I was just thinking, well, I mean, if the car is gonna be there and sitting there for multiple months, there could be rats and stuff coming in there.

But okay, okay.

Nothing close to that.

Understood, thank you, Ms.

Uh Mr.

Cruz.

I have a question for you if you want to come on up.

Why are you coming up?

Um, do you uh attend the uh neighborhood association meetings?

To be honest with you.

We're very honest with you, we had no clue there was an association until it popped up.

That's okay.

I mean, I I'm a president of a neighborhood association.

I don't even go to all my meetings.

Uh I'm I'm just kidding, that was a that was a joke.

Um then the pictures that were shown, that was not your house.

Any of those pictures?

No, sir.

What about your neighbors?

Like, were you like, oh, there's my neighbor?

No, okay.

No.

Uh I wish I wish uh not to you, Mr.

Cruz, but I wish that the pictures have maybe shown some of the backyards uh pictures of that.

And um uh is are there any vagrants or any any helmets and comments?

Behind the the the structure, there is a uh a vacant lot.

I've been wanting to to purchase that lot, but the city hasn't called me bank yet.

Uh so we would like to purchase that lot, and we can have it clean and uh end this the yeah, have it clean.

Gotcha.

Okay, thank thank you, Mr.

Cruz.

And then uh final question for Ms.

uh our president uh of the neighbor association, Miss Fadias?

Sorry.

Uh question for you, I know you had mentioned um your your biggest argument against this is you just don't want cars to be parked there.

Uh you would rather have a liquor store at the entrance of your beautiful neighborhood, but not a not a tow truck uh we are why no, it's uh it was his idea of bringing up the liquor store.

I'd rather have a bodega or office, something that's what we want.

In other words, we want less industrial businesses opening, especially next to our exit of our neighborhood.

Okay, that's what we want.

And when you see we, that is the my neighbors, my neighbors, the community.

Well, not the neighborhood community because Mr.

Cruz is right behind there.

Did you have any contact with the neighbors right directly behind this?

I'm assuming there's about what uh two or three houses that are kind of affected by this?

Maybe not.

Did you all go to door to door or because we did?

Matter of fact, Evette, she was the one that collected um signatures because I work most of the time, so she did a favor for me that while I was at work to collect signatures, and then I took over when I came home in the evening.

So I'm gonna tell you something else.

Evette is the one that takes the time to maintain our entrance and exit, cutting the grass, uh trimming the trees, and the lot that Mr.

Cruz is talking about, it is right next to his house.

They never once ever volunteer to cut the grass.

Evet is the one that's doing it.

Okay, okay.

Thank you, ma'am.

And I'm sorry, one more question for you for Missy Vettel.

Miss Yvette, when you went to those houses directly behind uh the proposed zoning change, what what response did you get from those two or three houses?

Well, that they didn't want it, they didn't want that there, and they didn't know that it was there ever for sale.

And there was a couple of people that said that they wish they would have known it was for sale because they would have bought it.

Okay, and then that that uh that was everybody?

Huh?

That was everybody behind the uh proposed zoning area?

Um there's probably about maybe three right behind, like in the site of the neighbor.

And all three of them.

Didn't want it.

Well, except for Mr.

Cruz, except yeah, Mr.

Cruz wanted it.

There was a house across from him that wanted it.

I mean uh not directly across from him, but kind of to the side that was also for it.

Okay, and and I think our chair brought up the and I bring this up too sometimes is like you know, if it's C2, it's already zone specific use.

I mean, anybody I could buy it and put a pet cemetery or a liquor store or something within by right.

And that's always, you know, a lot of us don't want certain things, you know.

I I don't like possums, but someone said they would love possums.

So I mean it's just a difference of opinion.

Would you have that uh final question for me?

Uh would you want a liquor store there uh compared to uh a tow truck yard or or a uh whatever that's called?

I mean, if that's a choice, yeah.

That's choice.

Okay, thank you so much, Yvette.

Thank you, Chair.

All right, thank you, Commissioner Hino Hosa.

Questions to my right?

Yes, Commissioner Pete Rodriguez?

The question for staff.

Uh out of those uh letters that are in support.

How many of them live in the neighborhood?

Do they all live in the neighborhood?

No, so well, the seven, there's seven within 200 feet.

Um and then there were um 57 provided signatures that were outside 200 feet.

Well, I guess what I'm asking is is a neighborhood bigger than 200 feet?

Correct.

Yes, so we did not clarify if they were within that neighborhood.

We just were looking at the 200 feet versus outside 200 feet.

So these people still live in the neighborhood.

They may, they may not.

We're not we did not clarify confirm that.

Okay, and how many letters were there total?

Give me one second.

Is that where mailed out or received?

Received with support.

64.

60 something?

Yes, 64, 64, okay.

Uh question for the president of the HOA.

How many residents are in your neighborhood?

We have about 50, 50 to 65 residences.

Homes uh actually we have more now with the habitat for humanity, so I I'm a little I I'm not sure.

I really have not counted the numbers, but we have more than about 60.

Okay.

Uh I want to say now, probably 75, 80, including them.

And how many signatures do you have opposed?

34, 35.

And they all live in the neighborhood, and some from the Kelly Park area, none are outside of that.

Okay.

So right now more than 50% of the people in the neighborhood are in support of this.

Oh, or in support or against?

In support.

Okay.

They have 60 something, 64 in support.

You have 50, that doesn't seem the the numbers don't add up to you.

Yeah, we have 35.

35 signatures that are in opposition.

And it's from within a neighborhood.

Okay.

No further questions.

Is that making sense?

Thank you.

All right.

Any further questions, right?

Questions remotely.

Alright, thank you.

Um briefly, Ms.

Adeda.

Um with respect to there.

Miss Eddo, if you come up, please.

Those were brought by you to the department?

Yes, sir.

Okay.

Where did you get those signatures?

Uh those were w around the neighborhood.

I personally went door to door knocking and I just went around the behind the uh shop that we currently have and just took it as much as as long as there were no dogs.

There was like a better.

Yeah.

All right.

Uh any further questions left.

Yes, Commissioner Double.

Uh I'm a little disoriented with uh support and opposition.

You know, we've got like seven direct neighbors in support, yet the HOA voted to oppose.

So could I get a representative from the HOA to come up and help me help me figure out what's going on?

So first off, y'all have a functioning HOA.

It's a neighbor, excuse me.

It's a registered by the city neighborhood association.

Do you guys have a board of directors?

Um not right the current time.

We're working on that.

We're working on a lot of things.

Okay.

Uh I see in the staff report it says that the neighborhood association voted to oppose the proposal.

How did that vote occur without a board of directors?

Well, we just went door to door to collect signatures.

But was noticed the only board we have is just me and my secretary and uh treasurer.

Okay.

But if you collected signatures, how how did you come to the conclusion that the neighborhood had voted to oppose the project?

What well it was a petition.

Say sign the petition.

Right, but you didn't ask if their vote was yes or no, you asked them to sign the petition to oppose the project.

Well, I did individually.

I talked about what's coming, and I said if you are in favor, I mean in opposition, then you can sign it if you are if you oppose of meaning if you welcome them coming in, you don't have to sign it.

So we did I did have two neighbors that did not sign it because they were in favor.

Right.

That makes any sense.

I'm trying to have to keep the yeah, no, I I think uh and then just the last question.

Um I'm I feel like I got some inconsistent information about the immediate neighbors behind the project.

Staff has shown us a map that shows that the immediate seven neighbors.

Here it is, that the that is the three or two immediate neighbors and then across the street another four um are in support of the project.

Um how do how am I supposed to interpret this map with you finding that the neighborhood was opposed?

Why why is everyone next door so important?

Ex my question as well.

The neighbors closest to the property.

Uh when EVET went and took uh was having people sign the petition and ask them if you're in favor or not.

The neighbors closest to the property were the ones that were in support of them coming in.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay, and it's just what maybe three homes, four homes at the most, and it's the ones all closest to the exit, which baffles my mind too.

Why would they support that?

But I'm thinking they just want something to come in, they just they don't want to see any it empty.

Maybe it's the possums, so thank you.

Thank you.

Alright, any further questions left?

Questions right?

Questions remotely.

All right, the public hearing is closed.

Um this is a district five case, so it is to me for discussion and uh potential motion.

Um as we frequently say from this dais, this is a difficult case.

Uh and it is, and it's a difficult case for the reason that Commissioner Duval just mentioned.

Uh, this is a case where we have a neighborhood association representing that it's opposed.

We have close neighbors who are representing there in favor.

Um, and so um, you know, understanding that and understanding that, you know, unfortunately the way our system works is um, and and thankfully, Commissioner Pana, who is a wonderful real estate professional, was able to look up and see that this property's been on and off the market for a number of years, five, maybe a little bit more.

Um, and so you know that weighs heavily on my mind.

It weighs heavily on my mind that in fact maybe the closest neighbors are concerned about just having an empty lot here, um, to try, you know.

If this were a case, let me back up.

If this were a case where the applicant were requesting light industrial, industrial one or industrial two, both industrial one and industrial two are rife across the railroad tracks, uh, this would be an open and shut case.

I would say no.

Instead, what we have is a request to maintain the base zoning, meaning that C2 will remain the base zoning.

Uh introducing, granted, a more heavy intensive use, but limiting that to the site plan that I know Ms.

Edo was going to kill me, but that we went back and forth on over and over and over again because when I went out to meet with the neighbors, we had the same split.

We had a lot of people who were opposed, we had a lot of people who were in favor, uh, but there were people who wanted a number of things.

One, not to have an empty property there, two, to make sure that tow trucks or car transport semis were not parked in Frio City Road.

Uh you know, wanted to make sure that their entrance to their neighborhood was beautified and clean.

Uh I give credit to the applicant for cleaning up this property.

Again, this is zoning, so that doesn't mean that that applicant's always going to be there.

It doesn't mean you're always going to have a good neighbor, but in this case you appear to.

So as a result, and I thank staff for their recommendation, I understand it.

Um, but given all of the other considerations, including the market, including the opposition from the neighborhood association, uh, including the applicant's willingness to maintain and abide by a site plan which is enforceable by the city.

Uh I'm going to move for approval as amended for item number two.

I seconded.

Second by Commissioner Pete Rodriguez.

All right.

Discussion to my left.

Yes, Commissioner Dougal.

So uh the reason why this is before us at all is that uh what is it, trucking service or whatever, is not allowed by right within C2?

It instead requires a conditional use authorization.

So before we vote, I just want to urge that we we do take a couple of minutes to discuss if we have exhausted all conditions of approval that could be imposed on the project in order to make it suitable for this property, reminding everyone that the whole purpose of a conditional use authorization is that it's a use that may be suitable for the property with the application of conditions of approval.

So maybe if I mean I know that we've reviewed it before with staff, the you know conditions that can be placed on a uh a CD or uh uh conditional use authorization, but I I I would encourage that we think about it.

I know that the uh uh one of the neighbors, one of the immediate neighbors said that the the 15-foot type B landscape buffer he found disagreeable, and I think he was like the immediate property owners.

That might be one that we might consider moving or changing.

Um, unfortunately you can't do that.

Oh, we can't do that at all.

The 15 foot property buffer is between C2 and residential is required by the code.

So that wasn't from just the conditions.

That was not that is not a condition, that is straightly from the code.

That's why, you know, if Mr.

Cruz had said no and it were optional, I would have not done it.

Got it.

I would also remind that this is an MLOD, so lighting is maintained under a separate regulatory structure.

I wouldn't entertain tenant flags, no pennant flags.

I'd like that one.

Make a friendly amendment.

I'd like to move to amend to uh include a condition of approval to prohibit pennant flags.

Uh I accept that friendly amendment.

Commissioner Pete Rodriguez.

Can we just say temporary temporary signs?

Well, sorry, yeah.

Just to keep it consistency, appreciate it.

I'm the problem, as usual.

So the friendly amendment to ban temporary signage is uh was made by uh Commissioner Duval, was accepted by me and Commissioner Pete Rodriguez.

That is now part of the motion.

Any further?

Uh is um I know that the applicant, I mean the the changes were made to the site plan to deal with circulation.

Uh can conditions of approval related to parking be placed on a conditional use authorization?

I seem to remember that they could.

Well, what kind of parking stipulations are you?

Yeah, that doesn't prohibit street parking though, right?

You can't put any prohibitive street parking.

No.

All right.

It's uh also it's at least a type B arterial with no parking allowed on the street anyway.

Or at least for Frio City Road and probably for Kaya uh Gaia Lusol as well.

Um all right, any further discussion left.

All right.

Discussion right?

Yes, Commissioner Hean also.

I'll be supporting this uh this motion and I agree with the our chair, it is a difficult case, especially when you have a neighborhood association one way and then you have the direct neighbors um in a different direction.

Um I always lean toward the neighbors who live there and are right next to it.

Now, this should not be any kind of uh uh downplay toward the neighbor association.

I you're rebuilding.

I I I applaud you for for sicking it out and it'll grow.

Uh I remember stories on my neighborhood association when it first started back in the 80s and it was hardly anybody there and the last couple of meetings we had like 80 people, which is I've been told it's a lot of people at meetings.

So you'll get there.

My only concern would be like when Mr.

Cruz uh said he didn't even know there was a neighborhood association, so you need to do some outreach and block walking and asking, hey, we got this going on.

And uh food always brings people.

At least me, that's why I'm here.

I've I've been up at that snacks bar right behind us for about four or five times already.

Uh but I just mean uh but anyway, are we supporting this?

Uh thank you very much and um I I think we made a right call.

Thank you.

All right.

Fer further discussion, right?

Yes, Commissioner Pete Rodriguez.

The reason I'm in support of this is one, I believe that the owner's gonna have it well maintained.

Uh you're not gonna be seeing possums and rats like like it is now and uh and second the the homeowners that are mostly affected by it, which are the ones that are right behind it, they're in favor of it.

Uh so for that reason, I'll be supporting it.

And they have more than 50 percent of the homes there that are in favor of it also.

So thank you.

Alright.

Any further discussion, right?

Alright, discussion remote.

All right.

Um yeah, once again, you know, uh briefly, if I may.

Um, um the with respect to the right turn lane, which was shouted out, please don't shout out during our meetings.

Uh, but there is a carve out even on the site plan that does allow for a line of sight on this site plan as well.

Uh you can also continue to work on the site plan with the council office as it goes before city council.

Um, so all right.

Uh that is it.

The motion is for approval as amended for item number two with uh uh condition of no temporary signage by me, a second by commissioner Pete Rodriguez.

Roll call vote, please.

Um, I don't know when you're currently set to go to City Council, but y'all all can continue to work on this as you go forward, uh, before the city council vote, which is at least not until August.

All right, thank you so much.

Uh, the last item on our agenda is approval and consideration or consideration and approval of the June 16th 2026 zoning commission minutes.

Are there any changes, amendments, comments about the minutes from June 16th?

Seeing, hearing none, Commissioner Losef.

All right, seeing none.
