HEARING LOCATION: CITY OF COPPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT TURNBERRY VILLAGE - PRELIMINARY PLAT DATE: August 29, 1991 DATE: September 24, 1991 South of Sandy Lake Road along the east side of Riverchase Drive. SIZE OF AREA: 31.66 Acres. REQUEST: Approval of a preliminary plat. APPLICANT: Huffines & Partners, Inc. 7001 Preston Road Suite 222 Dallas, Texas 75205 (214) 526-3000 Nathan Maier Engineers Mr. Mike Daniel 8800 N. Central Expressway Suite 300 Dallas, Texas 75231 (214) 739-4741 TRANSPORTATION: Future residents of this subdivision will gain entrance into the subdivision by way of Sandy Lake Road and MacArthur Boulevard to the south. ANALYSIS: Turnberry Village Addition has been submitted for your review and approval of a single-family preliminary plat. A zoning request was approved last year by the City Council to rezone the property from (R) and (MF-2) to (SF-7) Single-Family-7 on this parcel, and other parcels within the Riverchase development were rezoned for other uses as well. The owner of the property, First Gibraltar Bank, FSB, has recently sent a written request to consummate the rezoning. Because the zoning is {SF-7), and the plat proposal honors this zoning classification, this plat can be approved with consideration of the following issues. There is an existing grove of trees located along the north property line (parallel to proposed Palmer Lane), that the developer wishes to preserve. The trees will be of additional value to the lots, and will provide beauty to the rear lots. Unfortunately, these trees weave in and out of the subject property and the property to the north. ITEM 6 The applicant has requested to deviate from the subdivision requirement to provide alleys. The proposal is to delete alleys along the golf course and adjacent to the trees. Staff would reserve com~aent on the alley requirement ~ntil after hearing the applicant's presentation. In summary, although the Comprehensive Master Plan proposes a more intense use than what is proposed, staff supports the low density proposal. We recommend approval of the preliminary plat with assurances that Riverchase Boulevard will be a continuous street from Sandy lake to the existing roadway at the golf club building. We would reserve judgement on the alley issue until after the applicant's presentation at the Commission meeting. ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the Preliminary Plat 2) Deny the Preliminary Plat 3) Modify the Preliminary Plat ATTACI{MENTS: 1) Preliminary Plat 2) Letter of June 24, 1991 requesting alley deletion TBERRY.STF
