Introduction Purpose This application has been prepared on behalf of Coastal Bend Property Development and other applicants attached hereto pursuant to the City of Friendswood’s Ordinances related to creation of the Panhandle Planned Unit Development (PUD). The purpose of the PUD District is to encourage flexibility in the development of land, promote the most appropriate uses, and encourage a cohesive commercial, industrial, and recreational development. This PUD will establish development regulations and standards that will ensure quality development, consistent with the intent of the Friendswood Subdivision and Zoning Ordinances. Location and Existing Conditions Prior to the development of Timber Creek Golf Club (2001), the “Panhandle” region of the City of Friendswood had long been idled except for active oil & gas production and cattle grazing. A major factor in this long dormant condition was that the vast majority of the region was held in undivided interest ownerships whose primary concern was mineral interest income from the original 1937 Humble Oil & Gas leases, owned today by Denbury Resources. Aside from the long time Whitley family’s feed store and drywall business, only a few automotive, warehouse, storage and a single retail gas/convenience store existed within the City’s limits along FM 2351 with AAA Blastcoat being the only business on Beamer Rd.

  • A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and Its Relationship with Industrial Land
    A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning University of Washington 2019 Committee: Edward McCormack Christine Bae Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Urban Design and Planning College of Built Environments ©Copyright 2019 David Tomporowski University of Washington Abstract A Different Kind of Gentrification: Seattle and its Relationship with Industrial Land David Tomporowski Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Edward McCormack Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering / Department of Urban Design and Planning Industry in Seattle often talks about how they are facing their own kind of gentrification. Rising property values, encroaching pressure for different land uses, and choking transportation all loom as reasons for industrial businesses to relocate out of the city. This research explores this phenomenon of industrial gentrification through a case study of Seattle’s most prominent industrial area: the SODO (“South Of Downtown”) neighborhood. My primary research question asks what the perception and reality of the state of industrial land designation and industrial land use gentrification in Seattle is. Secondary research questions involve asking how industrial land designation and industrial land use can be defined in Seattle, what percentage of land is zoned industrial in the SODO neighborhood, and what percentage of the land use is considered industrial in the SODO neighborhood. Finally, subsequent effects on freight transportation and goods movement will be considered. By surveying actual industrial land use compared to i industrially-zoned land, one can conclude whether industry’s complaints are accurate and whether attempts to protect industrial land uses are working.

    (HI) Heavy Industrial District Zoning The purpose of this district is to establish and preserve areas for heavy industrial and related uses and is designed to accommodate all but the most objectionable industries; however, industries permitted by right are required to minimize their emission of smoke, dust, fumes, glare, noise and vibrations. The following standards are established for this district and designed to promote sound permanent heavy industrial development, and to protect nearby areas from undesirable aspects of industrial development: (1) outside storage must be screened from public view by opaque fencing, screening or landscaping; (2) outside storage shall be limited to the rear and side of the principal building; (3) storage of unsafe (corrosive, flammable or explosive materials) or hazardous material shall comply with any local, state or federal requirements; and (4) outside storage must be on the premises of the business. This district should be separated from residential areas whenever possible by natural or structural features such as sharp breaks in topography, strips of vegetation or traffic arteries. This district shall be located adjacent to and/or with direct access to thoroughfare roads or streets.

This has resulted firstly, in an attempt by public authorities to curb the excesses of industry and to make it more compatible with the residential environment; and, secondly, in a move• ment of the factory workers away from their place of work into areas reserved exclusively for residential development. Today, due to technological advances, industrial nuisances have been virtually eliminated and atmospheric pollution is caused mainly by the exhaust fumes from the automobiles of commuting motorists.

    1 Landscapes and territories of factory towns: from planning to non-planning… or the opposite? Simon EDELBLUTTE Professor of Geography Université de Lorraine LOTERR Campus Lettres 23, boulevard Albert Ier 54000 NANCY FRANCE [email protected] Abstract: This work aims to deal with the definition of the notion of factory town, trying to specify their different forms and finally proposes the use of a specific vocabulary for the various categories of workers’ villages and factory towns. From a notion and a spatial model which seem to be simple (i.e. a town planned and built around a fac- tory), many questions can be asked. The question of the creator (the State, a company, an industrialist?); the ques- tion of the place of birth (in the countryside, near a pre-existing city?); the question of the size (where is the limit between workers’ village and factory town); the question of the evolution of the model (with the growth of the factory-town outside the original model) to a fuzzier urban shape, so from planning to non-planning. This leads to develop the question of a category of less familiar, less studied factory towns, because less visible, non-emblematic, non-symbolic of paternalistic times. This type of agglomeration gathers several small factories, workshops, some workers’ houses attached at each factory, some services, some other houses (for the industrialists, for other workers). The town is unplanned in a great spatial anarchy. Generally, theses factory towns have proto-industrial origins and their evolution is slow from proto-industry to industry, with a very progressive genesis: no spectacular buildings in this type of factory town, no utopian social theories behind them.
