CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING: Consider approval of Case No. S-1174R~
Deliman's Grille, zoning change request from PD-133-HC (Planned Development-133-
Highway Commercial) to PD-133R4-HC-S.U.P-1174R (Planned Development-133R4-
Highway Commercial, Special Use Permit-l174R), to amend various development
standards of the Planned Development and to allow the construction of an approximate
3,649 square-foot restaurant with a drive-through and private club, to be located along
the west side of Denton Tap Road, approximately 204 feet north of Natches Trace, at the
request of Jay Khorrami.
Presentation:
Planning Director Gary Sieb introduced the item to the Commission, showing exhibits,
including a color board, reviewing significant changes that have been made to the proposal
since last month; i.e., dumpster relocation, elimination of the reader board and speaker system
from the drive-through area, addition of an 8'-masonry screening wall on the western property
line and a 6'-masonry screening wall on the south property line, revision to the landscaping
plan, operational hours being changed from 5 a.m.-10 p.m. seven days per week to 6 a.m.-10
p.m. seven days per week, elevation/signage changes to conform with the City's ordinances,
etc. Mr. Sieb stated that last month, only 5 percent of affected property owners within 200' of
the restaurant opposed this use but recently, a letter was received from the Magnolia Park
HOA, making approximately 40 percent of affected property owners opposing this use,
requiring a 3¼ favorable vote of Council. Mr. Sieb also presented to the Commission a petition
signed by approximately 500 citizens living outside the affected 200' notification area (attached
as Exhibit A), supporting this application. Mr. Sieb then stated that staff recommends approval
of this application, subject to four conditions, which he read into the record.
Bill Dahlstrom, Jenkens & Oilchrist, PC, 1445 Ross Avenue, Suite 3200, Dallas, TX, was
present to represent this case before the Commission and answer any questions, confirming the
drive-through window will be for pick-up orders, only. He stated that Jay Khorrami, restaurant
owner; Danny Tosh, and Tony Wagner, architects, were also present. He thanked everyone
who has participated in this application effort, including the Magnolia Park homeowners. Tony
Wagner, architect, 620 Ingleside, Arlington, TX, deferred architectural questions to Danny
Tosh, architect, 16051 Addison Road, Suite 206, Addison, TX 75001, who addressed
Commission questions relative to the design of the building.
Public Hearing:
After advising the Magnolia Park residents that this application meets all City requirements and
intent of the present zoning classification, Chairman McGahey opened the Public Hearing,
2
asking for people who wanted to speak either in favor or opposition or wanted to comment on
this request to come forward. The following people spoke:
Kris Howerton - 115 Natches Trace, Coppell, TX - stated that he would like to
address a "bigger issue" than merely meeting City requirements -- that the Commission
has a moral responsibility to do what is in the best interest of the citizens from a safety
perspective; namely, the present-day heavy traffic concerns and that upon egress from
this area, there is no northbound access on Denton Tap, plus the problems associated
with serving alcohol.
Shavom Allensworth, 454 Copperstone Trail, Coppell, TX - strongly supports this use
on this Highway Commercial property.
Brian Francis, 123 Natches Trace, Coppell, TX - doesn't want this use in his
neighborhood, has concerns for the safety of the children, wants the drive-through lane
eliminated, suggesting parking spaces be designated out front for pick-up only orders,
requested "no-parking" signs be posted in the Magnolia Park subdivision and feels the
operational hours and building design are unacceptable. He then reminded the
Commission that 91 percent of the neighborhood opposes this restaurant use.
Jim Hancock, 119 Natches Trace, Coppell, TX - would be in favor of this proposal if
there was a well-buffered area between this use and Magnolia Park, if there was an 8'
wall to the south, if the building was architecturally compatible with the one to the
north, and if there was no alcohol involved.
Hal Alter, 462 Copperstone Trail, Coppell, TX - supports this project. Feels that Jay
will take a very responsible attitude toward alcohol and the way he conducts his
business. Stated that Jay Khorrami has shown his willingness to work with the
neighbors and the Commission and is grateful that Jay is offering such a different and
unique restaurant to the City.
Kent Schroeder, 403 Greenridge, Coppell, TX - has known Jay for at least 10 years
and feels he is a man of integrity, honor, diligence and is a hard working man of good
humor, who has done nothing except try to meet the needs of the community through
his establishments. Feels that this restaurant is a good use for this area.
Lannie Jackson, 431 E. Bethel School Road, Coppell, TX - fully supports this
development. Feels that this owner serves a good product and is unique, which sets
him apart from the chain restaurants in the area.
David Lonsdale, 603 Canemont Lane, Coppell, TX - has concern about the alcohol
issue and the restaurant being so close to a dense school area.
Picky_ Keele, 114 Natches Trace, Coppell, TX - was under the false hope that with the
denial of the Burger King restaurant, this area would only be developed for office use,
closing by 6 p.m. Due to the fact that his property borders this commercial property,
he had to pay a higher down payment. Fears his property value will decrease and that
3
selling his house in the future will be difficult to do if this restaurant use borders his
back yard. Has concerns about on-going traffic, safety of the children going to school
and his property.
Richard Duggan, 601 Waverly, Coppell, TX - agrees with the concerns relative to
traffic, the closeness of the schools and the alcohol issues, fears that in the future, the
building may deteriorate and another use may come in that will not be good for the
community, as has happened in Lewisville. Feels that another type of establishment
would be a cleaner and better use with the retail services to the north.
Harold Hailey - is retired and recently built a home at 731 Bankers Cottage Lane in
Magnolia Park, will be moving in soon and is concerned about this sports bar going on
this property. Had he known this use would be allowed, he probably would not have
built in this up-scale neighborhood. Having been in the insurance business for 53
years, he is very concerned about the crime element associated with people who
frequent sports bars. Would not object to a high-scale restaurant but not one with a
sports bar and TV's which attract people to come in to watch sporting events. Fears
that if the Cowboys play until after 10 p.m., this restaurant will remain open until the
game is over and, perhaps, beyond. Fears for the safety of children who school nearby.
Also fears for devaluation of house values in the neighborhood.
Gary Johnson, 455 Grace, Coppell, TX - supports Jay Khorrami and this application,
which will keep tax dollars within the City of Coppell.
Dennis Lewis_, 150 Windham Circle, Coppell, TX - supports this application and
pointed out that Jay, being a responsible business owner, will closely monitor this
restaurant. He feels that the serving of alcohol will be closely monitored by the Police
Department, many of whom patronize the Coppell Deli. Feels that the drive-through
pick-up window will help alleviate the traffic congestion that may occur out front.
Bill Dahlstrom stated that this facility is not a sports bar; in fact, there isn't even a bar in the
restaurant. It is a restaurant that would have beer and wine service. He pointed out that the
area is zoned Highway Commercial and the Comprehensive Master Plan calls out for regional
retail uses for this site, which specifically supports restaurants. It also points out that these
areas are dependent on good access to highways and local arteries, and Denton Tap Road is
classified on the Comp. Plan as a principal arterial and is designed to handle over 35,000 trips
per day at a level service C, which is intended to be a busy road.
Discussion:
Discussion followed regarding the lack of design and articulation on the building; glare
concerns from the wall sconces on the western elevation; wall height concerns; the fact that
if a menu board and speaker system were contemplated at a later date, this would require a
revision to the Special Use Permit and a public hearing would be called; the fact that there is a
controlled left-turn lane at Denton Tap Road and Natches Trace; the fact that when the
Community Credit Union building is completed, there will be an access and exit onto S.H. 121
via a 24'-fire lane; the issue of potential spill-over parking in the neighborhood and the City's
4
option to post "no parking" signs; hours that alcohol can be served; hours of operation; the
distance between this use and the local schools, etc. It was agreed that a small committee of
the Planning Commission meet with the project's architect(s) to come up with a design, which
would better complement existing neighboring development.
Action:
Vice Chairman Halsey made a motion to approve Case No. S-1174tL Deliman's Grille, zoning
change request from PD-133-HC to PD-133R4-HC-S.U.P-1174R, subject to the following

with a dry cleaners, on approximately .802 of an acre of property located at the
southeast corner of MacArthur Blvd. and Sandy Lake Road, at the request of S&S Kim
Corporation.
Presentation:
Assistant Planning Director Marcie Diamond introduced the item to the Commission, showing
exhibits, including a color board. After reviewing the history of this property dating back to
1986, she reviewed technical issues regarding the proposed site plan, landscaping plan, tree
survey and elevations, mentioning that a mutual access or fire lane easement needs to be tied
down between this property and the adjacent vacant shopping center. Because access points
need to be paved, an agreement and participation by the abutting property owner needs to be
obtained. She mentioned that the Fire Marshal has also expressed concern regarding the
structural integrity of the bridge off MacArthur Boulevard into the existing shopping center
which would be used by fire equipment, should the need arise relative to this southeast corner
property. A letter from a structural engineer needs to be provided to the Planning Department
stating that the bridge will support heavy fire equipment. Ms. Diamond went on to state that
staff recommends holding this case open and under advisement to allow the applicant time to
contact the adjacent property owner. Of the 12 notices sent to affected property owners within
200 feet of this request, only one reply in opposition was received by the City.
Jerod Jackson, 3109 Knox Street, Unit 613, Dallas, TX, was present to represent this case
before the Commission and answer any questions, addressing issues relating to the dumpster
location, access to the adjoining property, landscaping, inability to reduce the building size, etc.
Discussion:
There was discussion relative to saving existing mature trees on property; making sure that the
utility boxes at the back of the building are screened from the public view; perhaps reducing the
size of the building to meet the requirements of the Landscape Ordinance; concern with regard
to the location of the dumpster; resolving the access/fire lane easement issue, etc.

Presentation:
Assistant Planning Director Marcie Diamond introduced the item to the Commission, showing
exhibits of the proposal, including a color board, mentioning when Sandy Lake Road is
improved to standard (estimated to be in the Spring of 2004), the proposed driveway will not
have a median opening on Sandy Lake Road (westbound access will be limited to Riverview

must be constructed. She then discussed the landscape plan and staff concerns relative to the
elevations, asking that additional accent materials be added to embellish all doors and windows.
Ms. Diamond went on to say that staff recommends approval of this Site Plan, subject to seven
conditions, which she read into the record.
