STAFF REPORT
DATE: 3une 14, 1989
RE: University Park, Preliminary Plat
LOCATION: North of Bethel Road, west of Bethel School Road and south
of the Hunterwood Subdivision.
APPLICANT: 3oyce-Myers Enterprises
TRANSPORTATION:
The DRC is concerned with the the plat as proposed because
there is only one (1) entry access street to this
subdivision. We are also concerned with the lack of
visibility near the proposed Stanford Drive and Bethel
School Road intersection. Fire protection for this
subdivision would be provided by Fire Station No. 1, on
Coppell Road. The fire trucks would have to travel along
Bethel Road and then proceed north to Bethel School Road.
This section of Bethel School Road is also considered as a
substandard road.
Because the City will need to resolve a road-widening issue
versus the payment of escrow funds, the Development Review
Committee offers possible options:
I.) University Park developer to build Bethel School Road
from Harris Street south to the intersection of Bethel
Road. The developer could request a pro-rata
agreement. The City must initiate condemnation of
affected property.
2.) Ihe City Council may still want to entertain the idea
of obtaining riGht-of-way from land owners whose
property fronts along Bethel School Road, in the event
that the roadway construction is not required at this
time.
SUMJ~RY: Applicant requests approval of a preliminary plat with the
following variances:
1) LenGth of cul-de-sac; 825 feet is requested for
Stanford Drive, {Comprehensive Subdivision Ordinance
allows a minimum of 600 feet).
2)Alley requirement.
ISm7
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the preliminary plat. 2) Approve the preliminary plat with conditions as
submitted.
3) Deny the preliminary plat.
ATTACHMENTS: 1) Preliminary Plat
2) Map depicting a proposed re-aliqnment of Bethel
School Road.
