HEARING DATE: CITY OF COPPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT CASE ~: ZC-533 November 21, 1991 December 10, 1991 LOCATION: AlonG the north side of Sandy Lake Road, east of Heartz Road and west of LodGe Road. SIZE OF AREA: 10.0 Acres (27 sinGle-family residences) REQUEST: Zoning change request from (SF-12) Single-Family-12, to (SF-9) $ingle-F~mily-9, for the construction of single family homes. APPLICANT: Property Owner Mr. Frank BamburG 743 Kings Lane De Soto, Texas 75115 (214) 233-4261 Engineer C C M EnGineering Mr. Tommy Cansler 630 N. Highway 67 Cedar Hill, Texas 75104 (214) 291-0517 HISTORY: There has been no recent zoning history on this parcel although to the east, west and south, we have had recent single-family development. TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is projected to be constructed as a four-lane divided thoroughfare in a six-lane right-of-way of 110 feet. SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North - Single-family - Planned Development South - Single-family - Planned Development East - Single-family - Planned Development West - SinGle-family - Planned Development ITEM 8 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The comprehensive plan shows this land to be developed low density single-family construction. with ANALYSIS: This 10 acre parcel is the last tract in the immediate area to be developed. Since all construction surrounding it is single-family, and the density on the developinG tracts is less than three units per acre, this request at 2.7 du/acre fits in well with the overall development picture and warrants a favorable recommendation. There are three issues reflected on the plan submitted by the applicant to be recognized here. One, the cul-de-sac (Sand Point Court) is approximately 800 feet lonG. Our subdivision regulations normally suGGest 600 feet as a maximum length. However, because as a General rule, cul-de-sacs make for more desirable residential streets, and the fact that this cul-de-sac eliminates yet another curb cut onto Sandy Lake Road, and thus encourages a safer street pattern, staff supports the additional cul-de-sac length. Two, the radius at the cul-de-sac end shows 60 feet, and our normal dimension is 50 feet. Staff does not oppose the 60 foot dimension {especially if some landscape treatment is proposed), but only points out a slight modification from the norm. Three, there are four lots - 1, 12, 13, 14 in Block A that are not on an alley. Lots 12, 13, and 14 back up to Sandy Lake Road and have staff support for elimination. By slightly modifyinG lot width dimensions alonG the west side of this proposal, however, it appears that Lot 1 could have alley access. Unless the applicant can offer some compellinG reason why such a modification to the plan can not occur, staff would recommend that alley access to Lot 1 be provided. All-in-all, this is a Good use of the land, is compatible with what is developinG around it and is recommended for approval as stated above. ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the zoninG change 2) Deny the zoninG change 3) Modify the zoninG change ATTACHMENTS: 1) Plan of development 2) Synopsis of proposed re-zoninG ZC533.STF EXISTING ZONING PI~OPOSBD ZONING GI~OSS ~A~( DF=DICATION NUMBE~ O~ LOTS MINIMUM DWBLL~NG LOTS I - 23 BLO~ 'A' MINIMUM LOT SIZ~ MINIMUM LOT DIMBNSIONS LOT WIDT~ AT ~UILDING LIN~ LOTS Il ~ ] 5 ~OCK ~ONT YArD SBTBACK ~A~ YArD S~TBACK SlOG YArD S~TBACK LOTS I ~ ~3 BLOCK 'A' (S~ SIDE 9~OOO 120' X 75' 75' 50' 25' 20' 8' 15' S~-9 I 0.000 ACRES NC)NB 27 SINGLE ~AMIL¥ 2500 SJ=, 3000 ~,~, EXISTING ZONING SF:-I 2 PROPOSED ZONING SP-9 GROSS ACREAGE t O.OOO ACRES PARK DEDICATION NONE NUMBER OF LOTS 27 SINGLE FAMILT MINIMUM DWELLING SIZE ( WITH ~ F:XCF:::PTiONS OF LOTS I - 2:3 BLOCK 'A' ) 2.500 S.F.
