Plan and Plat provided a fire lane/access easement, perpendicular to
the north property line, for the eventual mutual access from this
property to the property to the north.
TRANSPORTATION:
Belt Line Road is a P6D six-lane divided major thoroughfare built to
standard in a 120-foot right-of-way. Airline Drive is a paved,
concrete two-way street built within a 60-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - vacant; LI (Light Industrial)
South - office/warehousing; LI (Light Industrial)
East - auto parts, gas station, oil/lube shop; C (Commercial)
West - warehousing; LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property
as suitable for warehousing.
DISCUSSION:
This request is to allow for the placement and operation of a temporary
concrete batch plant to supply concrete for the construction on this 16.8-
acre site. While this use is permitted by right in this district for a period
not exceeding 90 days, the applicant anticipates needing to operate for
up to nine (9) months, therefore, requiring a Special Use Permit.
This facility, proposed to be located approximately 290 feet west of Belt
Line Road and 60 feet north of Airline Drive, directly over the
designated fire lane, will contain the plant, a cement storage trailer and
stockpiles of gravel and sand. As requested by the Fire Marshal, this
plant will need to be removed from the fire lane prior to going vertical
with any walls on this site. The applicant has agreed to move this plant,
most likely off-site, at that time.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality is the state regulatory
agency that will permit and oversee the operation of this facility. Staff is
requesting copies of all relevant applications and permits to insure this
facility meets all environmental regulations.
