HEARING DATE: May 9, 2000 LOCATION: 332 Kaye Street. SIZE OF AREA: Approximately .22 acres of property to accommodate the construction of a 2,000 squar~ foot house. CURRENT ZONING: SF-12 (Single Family-12) REQUEST: Minor Plat approval. APPLICANT: Applicant: Engineer: David Moore Peebles & Associates 333 Kaye Street 530 Bedford Road, Suite 108 Coppell, TX 75019 Bedford, Texas 76022 972-896-0206 817-282-3316 FAX 817-282-3603 ~aye Street is a residential street with Z5 feet of paving with curb nd gutter. & ZONING: single family; SF9 PD95 single family; SF7 PD89 ngle family; SF12 single family; SF 12 Item # 16 COMPREI-IF~NSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for residential low density DISCUSSION: The property is currently developed with a single family home as are both sides of Kaye Street, from Coppell Road to its terminus to the east at Round Oak Estates. These homes were constructed prior to the City's current requirements for platting and zoning. This property is located in the W.A. Maynard Addition, which is an unrecorded subdivision. Kaye Street currently has 25 feet of fight-of-way, which is substandard for a residential street. A ten foot drainage, utility and sidewalk easement is being provided along Kaye Street. The purpose of this easement is that if in the future, the city desires to make improvements to this street and/or utilities, the necessary easement will be in place. This plat also reflects an existing drainage easement along the northern boundary of the tract, which was acquired by the city by a separate instrument in 1991. The owner desires to demolish the existing structure and build a new home on this tract. This property is currently zoned SF-12, requiting a minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet. Although this lot is only 70 x 140 (9,800 square feet), per Section 40-54 of the Zoning Ordinance, a lot may have less square footage than required by the zoning district if it is an ``official lot of record". Section 42-75 defines "Lot of Record" as an "arm of land designated as a lot on a plat ..... or an area of land held in single ownership described by metes and bounds upon a deed recorded and registered with the County Clerk". This lot meets the second criteria. However, prior to the issuance of a building permit for a home on this property, a recorded plat is required per Section 39-1 of the Zoning Ordinance Creel/on of ~ Building Site. This plat meets the criteria of a minor plat because it involves four or fewer lots, fronts on an existing street and does not require the extension of municipal facilities. The Director of Planning and Community Services has elected to bring this to the Planning and Zoning Commission for a recommendation. If a favorable consideration is recommended by the Planning and Zoning Commission, then City Council action will not be required. Revisions are needed to the Dedication Signature Block, replacing Tarrant County with Dallas County, and adding the Floodplain Administrator's signature block. Item # 16 RECOMMF. N-DATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff recommends approval of the Minor Plat subject to: (1) Revised Dedication Signature Block, replacing Tarrant County with Da//as County, and (2) Addition of the Floodplain Administrator's Block.

ATTACHE~NTS: 1) Engineering Depamnent Comments 2) Minor Plat, Lot 12, Block 1 of the Anderson Addition Item # 16
