HISTORY; In 1995, a request to rezone the subject property from Light
Industrial to SF-9, to allow for the construction of 22 homes, was
recommended for denial by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
This request was not appealed to the Council.
In February 2000, Council denied a request fora 90-unit hoteUmotel
retirement facility on the subject tract of property. Concerns

included the incompatibility with the Comprehensive Master Plan
and a residential use under the flight paths for D/FW Airport.
h1 July 2000, Council approved several rezonings, as initiated by the
Planning and Zoning Commission, to reduce the incompatibilities
between the Master Plan and Zoning Map, considering the existing
and proposed development patterns in the City. As part of that
effort, the subject tract was rezoned from Light Industrial to Retail.
TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is a C4D/6, proposed to be a four-lane divided
roadway contained within an 110-foot R.O.W. It is currently atwo-
lane asphalt street. State Road is a C4D/6 and is indicated on the
Thoroughfare Plan as the future alignment of the extension of
Freeport Parkway.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING;
North- vacant; LI (Light Industrial)
South -built-out single family (Oakbend Addition) PD-SF-9
East -built-out single family (Oakbend Addition) PD-SF-9
West -vacant; LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSNE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
mixed uses.
DISCUSSION: The purpose of this minor plat is to define the building site
for this church as well as to provide for needed right-of-
way dedications, fire lanes and utility easements.
Specifically, approximately 0.5 of an acre of property is
being dedicated for the widening of Sandy Lake Road as
part of this plat. Previously, there was a temporary, 40-foot
construction easement along Sandy Lake Road. Due to the
dedication of the needed right-of--way for this road, this
easement is being abandoned as part of this plat.
The first phase fire lanes are indicated on the plat. These
fire lanes will need to be extended as future phases develop.
In the event that a second point of access is provided to
State Road with the first phase of development, as
recommended in the site plan review, then the fire lane
could be extended at this time.
