City Council Meeting Minutes December 2, 2020 Shannon Mattingly, Director of Development Services, provided a brief presentation regarding the development agreement with Rattler Road Storage to provide annexation and to regulate the future development of approximately 3.62 acres of land in the City's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction, located at Rattler Road, between Old Bastrop Hwy and Hwy 123. This is located within the East Village Medium Intensity Zone as identified by the Preferred Scenario Map. Staff recommends approval of the request and the applicant does agree to annexation and rezoning of this property. The Development Agreement will be in effect for 15 years with two 15 year extensions. Ms. Mattingly stated they are working on Land Development options for consideration for Council to review regarding these storages and something will be brought forward. Proposal Summary: • Self Storage Facility with 4,100 square feet of leasable officespace. • Increased Landscaping and buffering standards between Storage Facility and San Marcos High School • 35 foot landscaped Buffer • 4 shade trees per 100 feet within buffer (13 shade trees) • 4 understory trees per 100 feet within buffer (13 understory trees) • Minimum 50% Stucco or Masonry Finish on Rattler RoadFacade The Development Agreement stipulates that the property will be annexed and zoned to the LI zoning district prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy of the building. Gene Eitel, applicant, stated they will be a good neighbor and believes this is a good fit near the high school. There will be landscaping, security and low traffic generated by this development. He stated the facility is fenced, climate controlled and the facility is designed as a solar green facility per SBA guidelines, no exterior roll -up doors, noise will be low and the security of the building is monitored daily. They will offer 13 mini office suites which would provide alternatives for those working from home and office and storage options for small businesses. Mayor Hughson asked if the developer is required to build according to plans that were submitted and nothing else. Do we need to list the items that are usually allowed in Light Industrial Zoning that we do not want here? Ms. Mattingly confirmed they will build per the Development Agreement so the list of items that would not be allowed is not needed this time. City of San Marcos Page 8
