FAIRWAYS @ RIVERCHASE - PRELIMINARY PLAT
P & Z HEARING DATE: September 13, 1990
C. C. HEARING DATE: September 18, 1990
LOCATION: West of the extension of Riverchase Drive and south of
Sandy Lake Road; adjacent to the Riverchase Golf Course on
the west and south property line.
SIZE OF AREA: 27.45 Acres
REQUEST: Approval of a preliminary plat showin§ 84 lots.
APPLICANT: Mr. Bill Thompson Mr. Mike Daniels
(Potential Purchaser) (Engineer)
8333 Douglas Avenue #1510 8800 N. Central Expwy. ~300
Dallas, Texas 75225-5811 Dallas, Texas 75231
(214) 369-5200 (214) 739-4741
HISTORY: This property was platted in 1988; however, the final plat
was never submitted for signatures, hence, the request for
re-approval of a preliminary plat.
TRANSPORTATION:
Riverchase Boulevard is proposed to be a four-lane minor
arterial thoroughfare contained within a 65-70 foot
ri§hr-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
Surroundin§ area is currently vacant or contains Riverchase
Golf Course. Current zoning is (SF-0) on subject tract,
(SF-12-SUP) (Golf Course) on the west and south, and (SF-0)
on the north and east.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
Indicates low density, single-family development on the
subject tract, as well as surrounding area.
ANALYSIS: This plat was originally submitted in 1988 with an
ITEM 13
identical lot confi§uration. That plan was approved, but a
final plat was never submitted for signatures. This
resubmittal includes the same 84 lots with golf course lots
typically 85' X 120', and interior lots no less than 75' X
120' In as much as this plat reflects our proposed (SF-9)
development guidelines regarding lot size, set backs,
coverage, etc., staff would recommend approval subject to
the 45 foot sight-distance corner clips, waiving of the
alley requirement on all golf course lots, a clear
indication of the plat showing location of the screening
wall along Riverchase Drive, provision of all necessary
utility easements, and agreements on all other municipal
requirements.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the preliminary plat.
2) Deny the preliminary plat.
ATTAC}LMENTS: 1) Preliminary Plat
2) Zoning Exhibit

The Private Club Committee is in the process of reviewing the
City's ordinance. From preliminary indications, it appears
that Coppell's ordinance is out of step with state law and if
challenged in court, would be thrown out. It is anticipated
that a report will be forthcoming to Council at the October 9,
1990 City Council meeting and a public hearing scheduled for
citizens on October 11, 1990. The Committee has not yet
reached a decision as to the recommendation on a referendum.
