This property was rezoned from "C" Commercial to Conceptual
Plan Development District (PD 178) for commercial uses. In
March 2000, the City Council approved detail plans for this
property. The eastern 1.8 acres was proposed for
retail/medical/restaurant uses, and the western 2.7 acres for a day
care building and a child development facility.
On January 9, 2001 City Council approved SUP 1182 to allow for
the construction of a coffee house at this location. The elevations
indicted two signs, one on the front elevation and one on the rear.
Item # 4
TRANSPORTATION:
Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six-lane divided thoroughfare, with 37
feet of paving in each direction, contained within 110-120 feet of
right-of-way. Town Center Blvd. West is a 27-foot wide local
street allowing access to the Coppell High School Property.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single family development; PD-129, SF-9
South- undeveloped; "C' Commercial
East - Comerica Bank; "TC" Town Center
West - single family development; SF-12
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
retail and commercial uses.
DISCUSSION:
This request is to allow for the relocation of one of the permitted
signs, from the rear elevation to the southern elevation. Once the
building was constructed, it was determined that visibility from
north bound traffic on Denton Tap Road was more crucial than
from the rear of the building. Therefore, this 241/2 square foot
sign is being requested to be relocated to the southern elevation.
Per Section 29-4.3(B)ii of the Zoning Ordinance, attached signs for
buildings and leaseholds with multiple facades, are permitted to
have a maximum aggregate effective area of two square feet for
every linear foot of frontage (on a public right-of-way), with a
maximum of one square foot of sign for every linear foot of facade.
CC's will have 24' 6" of frontage on Denton Tap Road, therefore
the maximum square footage for all attached signage combined is
two times 24' 6" or 49 square footage of signage for this lease
space. In addition, when PD 178R was approved it established
specific sign criteria. The colors, materials, and raceway are all in
compliance with the signage regulations as established in the PD.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of S-1182R for CC's Coffee House
subject to the following condition:
1. The signs on the front and southern elevations being
a maximum effective area of 24'6" as required by
Section 29-4.3(B)ii of the Zoning Ordinance.
