Stephanie Cobb, representative from Ziegler Cooper Architects, addressed Council and stated she is speaking on behalf of First Baptist Church of Friendswood, assisting the church through the Specific Use Permit process and improvements to their campus. Council had asked the Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) to look over the city's ordinance for building height requirements in the Downtown District and how they related to the church. One of the questions asked was why was the tower so tall, the tower will be a welcome center, will have a 20 foot by 20 foot base and will house a 16 foot long ministry desk, will serve several different ministries at one time, and provides visibility for the education department and fellowship center. P&Z discussed keeping a small town feel, iconic features like a steeple demonstrate freedoms to worship, not able to set back on property like other churches, and once a four-story building is developed you will not be able to see it. Omar Peck, Friendswood resident, addressed Council and stated he is speaking on behalf of First ' Baptist Church of Friendswood. At the May 2020 Council meeting, Pastor David Lorenz asked that the church be involved in discussions regarding the height of the purposed church tower. In the future, if a developer bought the Comerica property and built a four-story building the church would not be visible from the street. The church would like to work with the city regarding the development of the master plan and the Specific Use Permit, and would like the opportunity to develop the property so it is beneficial to the whole city. 5.

The Engineering Department has been working on drainage plans that will be looked at during the update process, and Staff will be incorporating other existing city plans into the Comprehensive Plan. The updated plan will document the successes of the 1998 Comprehensive Plan and give a glimpse of how far the city has come. A few of the successes from the 1998 Comprehensive Plan include a main street corridor created, upgrade to the police facility from the facility on Willowick, plan sites for new fire stations, and water and sewer line extensions. The updated Comprehensive Plan will establish a plan time frame of 20 years, establish update procedures for future reviews and a new design for the plans layout and maps. i 07/06/20 5115 City Manager Morad Kabiri stated there will be a more in-depth discussion with Council regartling the Comprehensive Plan at the upcoming Council retreat to go over specific changes.

Discussion with the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding Building Height Requirements Mayor Foreman opened the discussion between Council, Staff, and the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding building height requirements. Community Development Director/City Planner Aubrey Harbin presented a PowerPoint presentation regarding building height requirements. The Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) ordinance subcommittee met in response to Council's direction following a Specific Use Permit (SUP) application and presented their recommendation to the rest of P&Z for discussion. The application proposed by First Baptist Church of Friendswood includes a proposed structure reaching an overall maximum height of 90- feet, 10-inches. The Zoning Ordinance's current requirements include a maximum building height of 70-feet and four-stories for the Downtown District, other zoning districts have a maximum building height of 40-feet and a 50-feet total combined maximum height for the building plus chimneys, church spires, flagpoles, monuments, etc. A chart displaying benchmarks of other cities was I shown, cities were selected with regional cities in the area, and Staff reviewed the Texas Downtown Association's website for other cities with downtown areas. Ms. Harbin stated she found it interesting that the 70-foot requirement is not that common, most requirements are 40-feet, some ' exceptions for increased heights include increase setbacks, and some cities had no maximum height requirements. City Manager Morad Kabiri opened the Planning and Zoning Commission's (P&Z) portion of t e Joint Work Session. Planning and Zoning Commission Chair Joe Matranga stated when the request first came to 1 &Z it seemed simple, First Baptist Church of Friendswood is a long-time entity in the City of Friendswood and a good neighbor to the city, discussions became complicated, and wanted to make sure different topics were looked into in-depth. Discussions included to eliminate ordinance contradictions and clarify language and terms, avoid unintended consequences, maintain the small town-character of Friendswood, consider the impact on neighbors, consider the purpose of certain types of structures and their height, visibility of the church, and protect the future of the Downtown District. P&Z's recommendation includes removing conflicting language in the Height Definition, Section 20, removing redundancy in Area and Height Exceptions, Section 7, clarifying height regulations by district, Section 7, and uphold the maximum building height as recommended by the original "Main Street Committee". III Discussion took place between Mayor, Council, the Planning and Zoning Commission, and Staff regarding that notices were sent to residents that live within 200 feet of First Baptist Church of ' Friendswood and Staff did not receive any responses back, prevent unintended consequences, personal property rights issue versus zoning requirements, all churches need to be treated equally, and conflicting language in current height definition. The consensus of Council was for P&Z to work on an ordinance that will allow First Baptist Church of Friendswood to meet their vision of 91 feet and to include exception language to exclude as many unintended consequences as possible. 07/06/20 5116 Planning and Zoning Commission Chair Joe Matranga adjourned the Planning and Zoning Commission's portion of the Joint Work Session. 6.
