3 THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN Land Use Designations LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AREAS Most of the undeveloped/vacant land area within the corporate limits and the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of Ennis is proposed for low density, single-family residential use. The average density for these areas is approximately 3.5 dwelling units per acre. HIGH DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AREAS Approximately 13 percent of the total housing units within Ennis are multi-family units. To maintain the balanced mixture of housing types, the multi-family housing percentage should not exceed 15 percent of the City s total housing stock. COMMERCIAL AREAS The Future Land Use Plan (Plate 4-1) designates areas along Interstate Highway 45, around the railroad close to downtown, and along State Highway 34 for commercial land use. The purpose of this land use designation is to allow for high-intensity commercial uses that may not be suitable for other nonresidential use districts but that may still need a well-connected system of roadways to enable efficient movement of goods. RETAIL AREAS It is anti-cipated that much of the potential for retail uses will be along Interstate Highway 45, Ennis Avenue/ State Highway 34, and within the downtown area. Some retail uses (i.e., convenience stores, cleaners, etc.) are also appropriate at major intersections along the U.S. Highway 287 bypass and other high-traffic intersections interspersed throughout the community. Retail sites at these locations should generally be 8 to 12 acres in size. THE DOWNTOWN AREA The downtown center of Ennis is identified as a special nonresidential retail area due to its property ownership patterns and mixture of municipal and office uses. Guidelines and design criteria should be established for future development in this area and for facilitating and/or encouraging adaptive reuse of existing structures, wherever possible, to ensure future high-quality development maintains the integrity of downtown. AREAS OF HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE Three areas within Ennis have been recognized as having local historic significance (local designation landmark districts). In addition, a portion of downtown Ennis has been designated as a National Register Historic District. The City should consider adopting a comprehensive local historic preservation ordinance in order to further protect these important areas. PUBLIC USE AREAS The Future Land Use Plan does not specify exact locations for public and semi-public uses, such as churches, schools, certain non-profit organizations, and other similar institutions. Major public and semi-public uses shown on the Plan are those that exist at the present time. Future areas used for public/semi-public purposes should have direct access to a major arterial or collector street. INDUSTRIAL AREAS Three major industrial areas have been established in the Future Land Use Plan. High quality, environmentally appropriate industries should be targeted to locate within the City of Ennis, due to the fact that these types of industries provide advantageous economic development opportunities for Ennis. The City should consider high development standards for those industrial tracts that have frontage along, or are visible from, major thoroughfares.

6 Baseline Analysis Historical Information The City of Ennis was established in the year 1872 when the Houston and Texas Central Railroad reached the area, and was named after an early railroad official, Cornelius Ennis. The City of Ennis was incorporated in November 1873 and held its first election in April By 1890, Ennis had reached a population of 3,000. Today, Ennis is home to 63 industries that employ more than 4,600 workers, with a total population of approximately 16,045 people according to the 2000 Census. Relationship of Ennis to the Region Ennis is located along the Union Pacific Railroad, at the intersection of Interstate Highway 45, State Highway 34 and U.S. Highway 287. Located in southeastern Ellis County, Ennis is approximately 30 miles south of Dallas/Fort Worth. The City also lies just east of Lake Bardwell, a popular recreational area. Demographic Information Much of Ennis's growth can be attributed to its proximity and easy access to Dallas; the City has captured a significant percentage of the region s growth. The trend in population growth has been a steady increase since Ennis is estimated to have grown at a relatively rapid rate between 1990 and 2000, with 16 percent growth and an increase of over 2,200 people. Population City of Ennis - Population Growth 18,000 16,000 16,045 14,000 13,812 12,000 12,110 11,046 10,000 9,347 8,000 6, Census Year Extra-territorial Jurisdiction Unincorporated areas of Ellis County surround the City of Ennis on all sides of the existing city limits, which allows the City opportunity for future expansion. The extra-territorial juris-diction (ETJ) of Ennis is one mile in radius. Although the City is currently surrounded by unincorporated land, if surrounding cities such as Garrett and Bardwell begin to grow, they may have a limiting effect on Ennis ETJ.

7 BASELINE ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) Existing Land Use Characteristics Of the developed land area in the year 2000, single-family residential land uses comprise the greatest percentage. Most of the nonresidential land uses within the City are located along major thoroughfares or in the downtown area. There is almost an equal amount of developed land and vacant Existing Land Use Within Ennis land, which provides the City continued opportunity for positive, proactive planning decisions. City of Ennis Existing Land Use Land Use Category Percentage Acreage of Total Acreage Single-Family 1, % Duplex % Multi-Family % Manufactured Homes Public/Semi- Public Parks & Open Space % % % Office % Retail % Commercial % Industrial % Rights-of-Way 1, % Total Developed 5, % Total Acreage Within the City 11, % FUTURE POPULATION PROJECTIONS The rate of population change within Ennis will be indirectly related to various factors, including employment opportunities and the rate at which the housing inventory can be expanded. The population of Ennis is expected to increase by 500 persons per year, which corresponds to an average compounded growth rate of approximately 2.5 percent. Therefore, for planning purposes, Scenario B is recommended as the most appropriate and applicable for projected growth within Ennis. City of Ennis Population Projections Year Scenario A Scenario B Scenario C 2+% 3+% 4+% ,046 16,046 16, ,400 18,400 19, ,200 21,600 23, ,200 25,300 28, ,400 30,000 34,700 Building Permits Required Per Year 125/year 210/year 315/year EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE The City of Ennis completed a Water Distribution System Master Plan in 1985 and a Wastewater System Master Plan in These master plans were both updated in The current water and wastewater systems serve all of the area within the Ennis corporate limits. The water system s capacities are adequate to meet current peak demands. The existing wastewater system also has adequate capacity to meet current flows. Major expansions of both the water and wastewater systems should be complete within two years and will provide adequate capacity for the next fifteen to twenty years.
8 THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN The Thoroughfare Plan is an overall guide used to enable individual developments within Ennis to be coordinated into an integrated, unified transportation system. The following are key recommendations: (1) Extend and straighten Preston Street so that it creates a northsouth connection through Ennis. Specifically, Preston Street would extend to the north until it intersects with Sleepy Hollow Street, and to the south until it intersects with F.M (2) Extend F.M. 85 west from Interstate Highway 45 until it intersects with the U.S. Highway 287 Bypass. This connection would provide additional access to and through a proposed future industrial area, thereby making the area increasingly valuable in terms of economic development (3) Improve Hall Street/Ensign Road in the southern part of the City. This improvement will become an important north-south arterial for Ennis as the City continues to grow to the southwest. (4) Construct a connection between U.S. Highway 287 Bypass and Interstate Highway 45 in the northern portion of the City. The proposed connection will create an arterial street loop (just north of Sleepy Hollow Street), thereby mitigating the flow of traffic within the City in both north-south and east-west directions and creating an additional connection between the east and west sides of the City. (5) Construct an overpass over the railroad at an appropriate location, after further engineering studies determine where an overpass can be constructed. It is also recommended within the Thoroughfare Plan that Ennis consider developing certain urban design guidelines for development along major travel corridors. The visual appearance of adjacent developments along these corridors would enable Ennis to project its quality community character to those traveling through or to the City. THE PARKS, RECREATION & OPEN SPACE PLAN A vital component of an urban area is the space devoted to satisfying community recreational needs. The existing system of parks in Ennis consists of approximately 203 acres. Several local schools have baseball, softball and soccer fields that supplement the City s facilities. The total park acreage was evaluated within the Plan based on its function. Consequently, there is a lack of neighborhood and community parks in Ennis, but there are an adequate number of regional parks. The City appears to be in need of active play facilities, and a public forum identified the need for hike-and-bike trails. It is estimated that Ennis will need approximately 330 acres of parkland by Park Type City of Ennis Recommended Park Acreage General Recommended Acreage Existing Standard Park 21,600 Per 1,000 Acreage Persons in Persons Mini NR 3.85 NR NR 30,000 Persons in Neighborhood 2.5 acres Community 5.0 acres Regional 7.5 acres Special Variable 22 Variable Variable Parkways/ Ornamental Variable Variable Variable Total 15 acres 203 acres 330 acres 450 acres THE PUBLIC FACILITIES PLAN The Public Facilities element of the Comprehensive Plan addresses the expectations that a community's residents have regarding public services, and the facilities and personnel needed to provide these services. The principle recommendation is that the City should consider construction of a Public Safety Complex that could provide one location for City Hall, the Police Department, and the Fire Department, along with a multi-purpose training facility, a municipal court, and a community center. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The City of Ennis has taken an important step in shaping its future by undertaking this comprehensive planning process. The Comprehensive Plan will provide a very important tool for the City to use in making sound planning decisions regarding long-term growth and development. Capital Improvements Programming The CIP should show a recommended, generalized plan for capital improvements within Ennis, and should identify them by priority with their approximate cost over a specific period of time. Growth Management Growth management is often tied to annexation, which is essential to the efficient extension of urban services. Ennis has a one-mile-radius ETJ within which annexation can occur. It is in the best interest of Ennis to annex areas prior to their development in order to ensure that it occurs to an adequate standard. Administrative Processes Proactive ways in which to implement the Comprehensive Plan include development of a Capital Improvements Program and revision of the Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance. Reactive ways include ensuring development and/or rezoning is consistent with the Plan, and reviewing site plans and subdivisions. Both proactive and reactive measures should be used in the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan.
