HISTORY:
The subject property was originally platted as part of the 14-lot 25.65
acre DTC Business Center, which was filed on January 6, 1987. On
March 26, 1991, Council approved the rezoning of the residential
property to the west from C (Commercial) to PD-115-SF-7
(Wynnpage single-family subdivision). As a result of the
development of the Wynnpage residential subdivision, the DTC
Business Center plat was vacated on May 8, 1992. In November
2002, a Preliminary Plat for three lots and a Site Plan and Final Plat
for Lot 1, Block B, were approved. A previous proposal, approved
but never filed, consisted of a Final Plat and Replat, combining two
of the preliminary platted lots into one, and reconfigufing the fire
lane and mutual access easement of Lot 1, Block B. This proposal is
to retain the two preliminary platted lots, forming one flag lot at the
rear, and to again propose a replat of Lot 1, Block B, in order to
reconfigure the fire lane and mutual access easement.
TRANSPORTATION:
Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six-lane divided concrete roadway built
to standard in a 11 O-foot fight-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - undeveloped; C (Commercial)
South -office building under construction; C (Commercial)
East - CISD Administration Building and medical office; C (Commercial)
West - Wynnpage residential subdivision; PD-115-SF-7 (Single-Family 7)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property as
suitable for mixed-use, which includes office and retail uses.
DISCUSSION:
As mentioned in the HISTORY section, this proposal is to keep the three
preliminary platted lot lines as previously depicted, except for now including
a 55' strip to provide frontage for the rear lot. Lot 1, Block B, is proposed to
be replatted in order to reconfigure the fire lane and mutual access easement.
The applicant has obtained permission from the current gas company
regulating the 50'-gas easement to realign the fire lane and mutual access
easement and to be allowed to park within the easement. Normally, staff
would not recommend approval of a flag lot, due to the potential for
multiple access points in close proximity of one another. Because this is an
irregularly-shaped lot with mutual access being provided at one curb cut,

we can recommend approval, subject to the Board of Adjustment granting
the following variances to the Zoning Ordinance:
1. Deleting the perimeter landscaping requirement
for Lots 1 and 2, Block B.
2. Allowing a minimum 11 '-side yard setback
for Lot 2, Block B.
3. Allowing a minimum 11 '-front/side yard
setback for Lot 1, Block B.
On the previously approved Site Plan, the two proposed northern buildings
were to be served by a total of 103 parking spaces for both buildings.
These met the requirements for parking with the rear building being
devoted solely as medical office use (3,500-square feet with 20 spaces
required). The parking for the front two-story building was calculated as
follows:
Restaurant space - 1,700-square feet with 17 spaces required,
Outside patio - 940-square feet with 9 spaces required,
Retail - 6,000-square feet with 30 spaces required, and
Second-floor office - 8,000-square feet with 27 spaces
required.
With the division of property, the previously approved number of parking
spaces per lot changed. There are now 16 additional spaces on Lot 1,
Block B (rear building) and 16 less on Lot 2, Block B (front two-story
building); therefore, the applicant will be required to provide a cross-
parking agreement between these two properties to ensure the total parking
provided meets the total required for both buildings.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of Wynnpage Plaza North, Lot 1 R, Block B, Replat and
Lots 2&3, Block B, Final Plat, subject to the following conditions being met:
1) Revise vicinity map to reflect entire property being platted.
2) Submit verification if the Board of Adjustment grants the following variances to
the Zoning Ordinance:
a. Deleting the perimeter landscaping requirement for Lots 1
and 2, Block B.
b. Allowing a minimum 11 '-side yard setback for Lot 2, Block B.
c. Allowing a minimum 1 l'-front/side yard setback for Lot 1, Block B.
3) Provide a cross-parking agreement between these two properties.

Comments
1. All utilities that cross property lines should be located within private utility easements.
2. Provide a Property Association Agreement between Lots 1R, 2 and 3, Block B for the
maintenance of the shared utilities. The agreement should include maintenance of the lift station.
3. The portion of the service line that provides water to Lot 2 and is located on Lot 3 should be
located within a private utility easement.
4. Locate the fire hydrant and FDC currently shown on Lot 2 to the parking island located on the
east side of the 24' x 29.5' Access Easement, These should be placed within a private utility
easement.
5. What is the intent of providing a water stub to the property to the north?
6. Flows to the north from the proposed flume should not be concentrated when they enter the
adjacent property. Drainage will be further evaluated upon detailed Engineering Review.
Additional comments may be generated upon detailed Engineering Review.
