Council approves rezoning, requires 8-foot wall for warehouse-office project at 5642 Pegasus Drive
Summary
Temple City Council approved final reading to rezone a 5.358-acre site at 5642 Pegasus Drive to Planned Development Commercial with a condition that an 8-foot precast concrete wall be installed near neighboring residences by the time certain buildings are constructed or within three years of permit issuance.
On final reading the Temple City Council voted 4-0 to adopt an ordinance rezoning approximately 5.358 acres at 5642 Pegasus Drive from agriculture to planned development commercial for a warehouse-office project, adding a binding site-development condition that requires buffering and screening under the Unified Development Code and an 8-foot precast concrete fence or wall in lieu of trees and shrubs along the northwest residential edge.
City staff presenter Mister Chandler (identified in the transcript as the speaker for this item) said the applicant agreed to a 20-foot landscape buffer per UDC section 5.3.35 and to build an 8-foot precast concrete wall, intended to address neighbor concerns about visibility and screening. Staff clarified the wall must be constructed by the time any of buildings 1, 2, 3, 4 or 7 are constructed — or within three years of the date the building permit is issued — whichever occurs first. The applicant may request council reconsideration if the development schedule changes.
Council member Pilkington moved approval; Mayor Pro Tem Tim Walker seconded. The motion passed 4-0.
