As noted on the si2 plan this. will be a phased develolmm~ and it will be~/a wi~ the co~n of the north building. On the plan it is not clear if the entire pavement will be in place during the first phase of constructkm. The applicant needs to delineate phase lines on the site plan. for the loading and unloadt~ of merchandise and goods. Two buildings of this size require two londing spaces. This applicant is seeking a variance for a single loadin~ space. From staff perspective, the loading space shown on the site plan located at the northeast comer of the parking area adjacent to Town Center Boulevard is extremely hnpractical. It is unlikely to be used for that purpose because it is so far removed from the office stnum~es. A more logical location for a single loadin~ space would be in the center parking median between the two office buildings. Staff is well aware that the plan as drawn could not ~_od_n~- a loading space ia that particular location. Therefore, we suggest that the applicant either modify the site pha to include two loadin~ spa~s, one of each convenient to ench building, or seek a special exception from the Board of Adjustment to · 'hminate both loading spaces. As this is Town Center property the building elevations must be approved by the Coppell Town Center Architeimm~ Review Board, as well as the Commission and Council. Copies of the drawings were sent for Board's review. RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff recommends approval of the prelimina~ plat and site plan subje~ to the following conditions betn~ met: 1) Delineate phase lines on site plan. 2) Redesign loadin~ space. 3) Board of Adjustment grant a special exception for loading 4) CoppeH Town Center Architectural Review Boasl approve build/ns elevations.
