Section 48 
Ordinance No. 5232
 
IH 30 Overlay District
 
 
A Ordinance amending the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, Ordinance No. 4647, as amended relating to the establishment of an overlay district for the IH 30 corridor; providing a penalty clause, a savings clause and a severability clause; and providing an effective date.
 

Be it ordained by the City Council of the City of Garland, Texas: 
 
Section 1
 
That Ordinance No. 4647, the comprehensive zoning ordinance of the City of Garland, Texas, as amended, is hereby amended by adding a new section, Section 48, which shall read as follows:
 
 
Section 48 
IH 30 Overlay District 
 
48-100
  Overlay District Within the IH 30 overlay district, as designated on the official zoning map of the City and as described in Exhibit A, the following additional or supplemental regulations shall apply. Except as specifically provided in this section, the inclusion of an area within an overlay district governed by the provisions of this section shall not affect the underlying zoning of such areas or any provision of a planned development or other ordinance pertaining to any property within the City. A planned development ordinance may further limit the uses allowed within the planned development district, but it may not add additional uses to those allowed by this section. If the base district of a planned development district located within the overlay district is not specified by the planned development ordinance, the Planning Director shall determine the base zoning for that planned development district based upon the straight zoning district most like the planned development district under consideration.
 
48-200  Rezoning within the Overlay District A property within the overlay district may be rezoned without affecting the overlay district provided that the overlay district shall continue to govern the allowable land uses for every property in the overlay district. If a use is desired that is not otherwise permitted under this section, then the use may be allowed by including a new zoning district land use chart to this section, or by adding that use to one of the existing zoning district land use charts set forth below.
 
48-300  Amendments to the Overlay District The overlay district established by this section may be amended to modify the existing land uses within a zoning district, or to include additional zoning districts not otherwise provided on the land use chart set forth below.
(A) Amending a Land Use Chart If a land use chart for a zoning district is being amended, then all properties within the zoning district for which the land use chart is being amended (or a planned development district for which that zoning district is the base district) shall be notified as provided by Section 34.
(B) Including Additional Zoning Districts If the overlay district is to be amended by adding a zoning district for which no land use chart is provided below, then all properties within the overlay district shall be notified as provided by Section 34.
 
48-400  Allowed Uses Within the following zoning districts, either a straight zoning district or a Planned Development with one of the following districts as the base zoning, if found within the IH 30 Corridor, only the following uses shall be permitted:
