HISTORY:
This property has an extensive development history. In April of
1999, the zoning was changed from SF-9 and C to PD-176. The
purpose of the re-zoning was to construct one single-family home on
the property. In July of 2000 a revision was madc to the PD
permitting the extension of a fifty-four inch drainage pipe and
construction of a stone headwall. In that same month, a request was
granted changing the density from one lot to two, as the potential
buyer of the original PD lot had moved elsewhere. This request also
eliminated the need for the drainage pipe and headwall, opting for
natural drainage across the property and the saving of several trees.
In addition to the original 1.5 acre parcel being replatted into the two
lots, the size of the area was reduced to 1.04 acres. The remainder of
the tract was platted into two existing residential lots in Old Coppell
Estates, lying immediately north of the subject property.
TRA..NSPORTATION:
Bethel Road is an unimproved asphalt road scheduled to be
reconstructed as a C2U two-lane undivided concrete roadway, 28
fcet wide and contained within a 50-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single-family residential; SF-9, and PD-119-SF-9
South - Grapevine Springs Park; PD-l 08-LI
East - singlc family home; C (Commercial) and R (Retail)
West - single-family residential; SF-9
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
Thc J 996 Comprehensive },Jaster Plan shows the property
as suitable for low density residential uscs with, if
appropriate, historic overlay.
DISCUSSION:
As described in the HISTORY section, this property has
had an extcnsivc development past. First was the rezoning
to a residential PD of one lot. Then, the one lot was
divided into two lots. Now, we have a request to rezone
and replat the property back to a one-lot subdivision. The
City supported the original rezoning. Wc also supported
the request to repJat into two lots. We now support this
rcquest to replat back to one lot. We further understand the
propcrty has recently been sold to an individual who
proposes to build onc residence on the lot, hence the reason
for this replat requcst.
Item # 6

for this replat request. We do, however, recommend only
one access point to Bethel Road.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the request to replat this property from
two lots into one. We further recommend only one access point to
Bethel Road (which would be identical to the oribrinal one lot plat).
The zoning case that preceded this application revised the PD to
include one lot, we have an owner who is ready to build on the one
lot, and with modifications to the plat document, staff supports this
request. We recommend approval subject to:
I. All written conditions on the replat refer to one lot.
2. All conditions ofPD-I76R2 (attached) be placed on the
replat document with the exception of (F) acreage, and
(K) zoning
3. Add to PD CONDITION B, "on PD-176 R3 Site Plan."
after"... fencing as shown", and "R" after Lot I.
4. Delete "plat" in City Secretary's signature block.
5. Change "these" to "this", "lots" to "lot", and "have" to
"has" on NOTES, Condition #2.
6. State that the subject property is zoned PD-I 76R3.
7. Compliance with all written review comments.
8. Replat document must be black line for recording.
9. One point of access to Bethel Road.

HISTORY:
This property has an extensive development history. In April of
1999, the zoning was changed from SF-9 and C to PD-I76. The
purpose of the rezoning was to construct one single-family home on
the property. In July of 2000, a revision was made to the PD

the size of the area to 1.04 acres. The remainder of the tract was

immediately north of the subject property.
TRANSPORTATION:
Bethel Road is an unimproved asphalt road scheduled to be
reconstructed as a C2U two-lane undivided concrete roadway, 28-
feet wide and contained within a 50-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- single family residential; SF-9 and PD-119-SF-9
South - Grapevine Springs Park; PD-I 08-LI
East - single-family home; C (Commercial) and R (Retail)
West - singlc-family residential; SF-9
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The 1996 Comprehensive Master Plan shows the property
as suitable for low density residential uses with, if
appropriate, historic overlay.
DISCUSSION:
This is a request to modify an eXlstmg Planned
Development District by reducing the density from two
residential lots to one. In reviewing the HISTORY section
of this report, the fact that this property was once proposed
for a single-residential lot, makes this request rather
straightforward. The City supported the two-lot rezoning,
and there is no reason to believe this one-lot amendment
will not be also. There are no overwhelming development
issues to resolve, the conditions of the original approved
PD are still in effect, and staff would recommend approval
with those conditions.
Item # 5
