Council approved a Replat and Site Plan amendment,
consolidating the property into one lot and allowing the
development of one additional office/warehouse building
containing 76,797 square-feet.
TRANSPORT ATlON:
Freeport Parkway is a four-lane divided road in an 80 foot-wide
right-of-way. Freeport Parkway is proposed to be expanded north
of Sandy Lake Road to a six-lane roadway in a 110 foot-wide
right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - Hard Eight Barbeque Restaurant; "PD-211-H" (Planned
Development-211-Historic)
South - Warehouse Distribution; "L1" (Light Industrial)
East - Vacant Carter Crowley Site; "H" (Historic)
West - Office/Warehouse; "L1" (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Coppell Comprehensive Master Plan shows this property as
suitable for industrial/showroom uses.
DISCUSSION:
This is a straightforward Replat request. When this property was last
replatted the northeast portion was planned for use as an alternate
parking area and a fire lane was not shown to support an
office/warehouse use. This Replat includes the required fire lanes, as well
as dedicates a pedestrian access easement along the northern
boundary. There is only one minor technical item outstanding with this
request; therefore, staff is recommending approval.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request subject to the following conditions:
1) Revise northern boundary of pedestrian access easement to extend to the
northern property line and replace "20'" with "variable width".
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3 Recommend modification of the request
