The Need• Current zoning does not accommodate mixed
uses along Manvel’s highway corridors– Allow compatible building functions to coexist in a
single zone– Protect existing single-family homes
• Develop appropriate standards for a HMU

• Provides opportunity for existing non-conforming properties to be conforming
• Provides new development flexibility• Maximizes tax base• Allows City to move forward in achieving its
Vision

Work to Date - Research • Focused on best practices ordinances from
following cities:– College Station, Denton, El Paso, Hutto, Fort
Worth, Leander, Mesquite– Each of these cities have chosen, like Manvel, to
introduce form-based zoning standards– Each has some development condition that is
relevant to Manvel

Work to Date - Evaluate• Best practices review suggests a model
ordinance with:– Legal sufficiency and enforceability– Ease of administration– Clarity of process and textual instruction– Objective requirements and standards
• Prepared a best-practices model framework for the ordinance
• Prepared material for this presentation that includes Marsh Darcy recommendations

Standard: Solves immediate need for HMU with minimal connection to Vision
Option 1: Additional standards for HMU and incremental progress toward conformity with Vision
