the last nine months. In addition, the property to the north has been
developed with the Fritz facility, the property to the south with the Lucent
Technologies building.

Fritz Drive is a C2U, two-lane undivided street built to standard in
a variable width right-of-way.

South-Lucent Technologies (office building); HC, Highway Commercial
East - vacant; HC, Highway Commercial
West -vacant, LBJ Freeway; "A", Agriculture
Item # 9
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
Freeway office type uses
DISCUSSION:
The application is for a 38,500 square foot, two story office
building to be located adjacent to LBJ Freeway. This will be the
home of the International Association of Assembly Manager's
World Headquarters, a group that manages convention centers.
The IAAM will occupy a portion of the building and plan to lease
out the remainder (somewhere between 20- 25,000 square feet).
This is a use that should be encouraged along LB J; it is a handsome
office building, has great exposure to the Freeway and has
complimentary landscaping which will serve to enhance this
corridor. This is the kind of use we strongly support along this
corridor. With regard to the final plat, all staff comments are
minor in nature.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the final plat document with the following condition:
Change the address on the Final Plat document to reflect the correct address of the
IAAM
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
ATTACHMENTS: 1) Final Plat Document
