The applicant is requesting approval of a planned development, which
will allow the construction of single-family structures. Deviations
from the standard ordinance regulations are as follows:
1)
Lots along Village Parkway will have front yards along this street.
Staff comment: Subdivision Ordinance regulations discourage front
yards along collector streets.
2) Gibbs Crossing (between Block A & B) has a length of 1,600 + feet.
Staff comment: Block lengths, generally, should not exceed-l,200'
in length as measured from street centerlines.
3) 26% of the total lots will be front-entry served.
Staff comment: Alleys are required in all single-family subdivisions.
Please see attached staff report for further details.

· ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting approval of a zoning change
with proposed PD regulations which vary from standard
(SF-7) guidelines:
1) 34% of the lots will have a 20' front yard setback
2) 5' side yard building line for interior lots (but no
more than 35% of the total project)
3) lots along Village Parkway will front on this street,
which is classified as a collector
4) Gibbs Crossing Street is proposed to have a length of
1,600+ between intersections
5) Lots 15-19, Block A, and Lots 1-42 (located along the
creek), will be front-entry homes.
Although it is suggested by the guidelines of the Future
Land Use Plan that the subject area should develop as
medium and high density developments, a less intense use is
certainly welcomed here. Back in 1985, when the Masterplan
was revised, some of the surrounding zoning included
(TH-l), which has now been rezoned to (SF-9) and (PD-SF-9)
zoning. Future land uses for single-family development, on
the property to the west, coupled with a greater demand for
single-family vs. multi-family in Coppell, suggests that
staff should support this request. Additionally, because
of potential for increased traffic volumes along MacArthur,
due to its new connection into Lewisville and the mall, a
less intense use such as (SF) would not burden MacArthur
Boulevard as much as the multi-family uses.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Approve the PD site plan as submitted
2) Deny the PD site plan
