FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ZONING RESTRICTIONS FOR PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 150 CENTRAL MAIN STREET FROM S-1, GOVERNMENT
USE DISTRICT TO A HARP-2 DISTRICT
SUMMARY:
The City, as property owner, is requesting to rezone Lot 4, Historic Arkansas Riverwalk
Project, Filing No. 3 Subdivision, Rearrangement of Property Boundaries, from an S-1
Governmental Use District to a HARP-2 District. The property containing approximately
15,760 square feet is being rezoned to facilitate hotel development on the site.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The subject property was originally developed as the annex to the Police Department
which was located at 140 Central Main from the early 1950’s until 2010. In 2010, the new
Municipal Justice Center was constructed and the Police Department moved operations
to 200 South Main Street. In 2018, the annex building was razed with the intent of clearing
the site for private hotel development. The City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for
the sale of vacant land at 150 Central Main Street on April 26, 2019. Pueblo TX Hotels,
LLC’s proposal was selected as the preferred purchaser and developer. Pueblo TX Hotels
are working with Marriott International and Hilton Worldwide to select the best brand fit
for the Pueblo market. Pueblo TX Hotels is planning to construct an eight-story, 110-130
room hotel that will include a restaurant, lounge, outdoor patio/balcony, indoor
pool/jacuzzi and other amenities. General hotel elevations have been provided to the City
as part of the RFP process; however, a site plan has not been submitted at this time.
Development plans are required to be submitted for review and approval by the Planning
and Zoning Commission prior to a building permit being issued.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their December 11, 2019 Regular Meeting,
voted 7-0 to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public
Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public
Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, the current zoning would remain, and a
hotel will not be developed.
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of proposed modifications.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
