HISTORY: This property was zoned PD-Highway Commercial in the mid-
1990's as part of a 87 acre tract zoned for single family and flood
plain/park uses. The initial application for this PD indicated single
family for the areas adjacent to S.H. 121 and Denton Tap Road.
However, Highway Commercial zoning was ultimately established
on this tract to provide a buffer between the residential and the high
traffic intersections.
On February 17, 2000 the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended denial of a request for a Special Use Permit for a
Item # 9
Burger King restaurant on a 0.92 acre tract abutting this property to
the south, along Denton Tap Road. This request was not appealed to
the City Council.
TRANSPORTATION: Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six lane divided thoroughfare contained
within a 100-120 foot right-of-way. SH 121 will be built to freeway
standards within 450 feet of right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North- S.H. 121 and vacant; HC, Highway Commercial and LI, Light
Industrial
South - Single-family, under construction; PD-133
East - vacant and Denton Creek Middle School; LI and SF-7
West - Single-family, under construction; PD-133
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
regional retail uses.
DISCUSSION: This property is zoned PD 133 - Highway Commercial. This request is to
attach a detail plan for retail uses on this tract of land. The Highway
Commercial zoning district is defined in the Zoning Ordinance as "intended
primarily as a high intensity area permitting a mixed use for office,
commercial-retail, and highway oriented uses...". Regional relail uses are
also called for in this area in the Comprehensive P/an to allow a variety of
uses. The P/an also points out that Denton Tap Road is a primary image
zone, and as such the architectural design, signage, landscaping, and other
physical development forms need to be carefully designed. This request is
for a 15,600 square foot retail building proposed to be occupied by
neighborhood serving retail such as cleaners, bookstore, gift store, video
store, etc.
The site plan is in compliance with the Streetsca~ Plan's recommendations
for primary image zones in that it is providing brick pavers at the driveway,
u 'tflizing red oaks, planted 40 foot on center, as the main tree along the street
frontage, providing a 102+ foot setback from Denton Tap Road. The
recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan and the CIVIC report are also
being addressed by limiting the materials on the exterior elevations and the
color of the signage. The one monument sign will be of the same brick as
the building and the color of the lettering will be cream. This sign is
proposed to be six feet in height and 60 square feet in size, which is the
maximum size permitted when a site exceeds two (2) acres in size. This site
conlains 2.09 acres, just barely exceeding the two acre threshold. It is
recommended that the size and height of the sign be reduced to four feet in
Item # 9
height and 40 square feet to be more in scale and character with the 15,600
square foot retail building proposed for this site. The attached signage shall
also be channel set, and cream in color.
The elevations and the color board submitted indicate 81% of the building
will be a field brick, "reddish brown" in color. Manufacture's
specifications of brick color is needed (i.e. Acme Brick Blend #1234).
Accent materials include CMU (14 %) and EIFS (5 %). Dark Green fabric
awnings are planned over doors.
The Landscaping Plan indicates landscape buffers along all the
perimeters, with Cedar Elm trees. An additional 5 feet of buffer area is
being provided along the west property line and an additional 10 to 15
feet additional along Denton Tap Road. Landscape planting islands in
the parking area exceed the minimum area requirements. The excess
areas in these planting islands and the required buffer areas are being
used to satisfy the non-vehicular landscape requirements. However,
Section 34-1-8(B) states that all islands contain a one tree. Therefore,
trees are required in the islands located adjacent to the north and south
property lines, as well as adjacent to the west side of the building.
Along the eastern ~ line, adjacent to the single family, the building is
setback approximately 82 feet, and a fifteen foot landscape buffer is being
provided. Within this buffer area, 7 cedar elm trees and a 3 foot hedge will
be provided. A six (6) foot solid brick wall will be installed along the length
of the property line utilizing the same color brick as the main structure. All
roof top mechanical equipment will be screened from view. Lighting is
recommended to be down light type, with a maximum height of 20 feet.
Access to this property from northbound Denton Tap Road will be via a
hooded (in only) left turn lane. A deceleration lane to the driveway will
serve southbound traffic. As the remainder of the property develops
mutual access easements will be provided to allow for circulation from
the site to the tract south, and to the proposed developments along S.H.
121.
RECO~NDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending approval of the delail site plan subject to:
(1) The monument sign being limited to four feet in height, and a
maximum of 40 square feet.
(2) Manufacture's specification of brick color
0) All site lighting shall be down light type.
(4) Trees shall be added to the planting islands located adjacent to the
north and south property lines and adjacent to the west side of the
building.
