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 May 9, 2000 the City Council approved a site plan, landscape
plan and elevations to permit the development of a 15,600 square
foot retail building on this tract.
Item # 11
TRANSPORTATION:
Denton Tap Road is a P6D, six lane divided thoroughfare, with 37
feet of paving in each direction, 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:

Industrial
South - Single-family, under construction; PD-133
East - vacant and Denton Creek Middle School; HC 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 request is to approve a minor plat for this 2.16 acre tract to allow for
the construction of a retail building in accordance with the site plan that
was approved in May of this year. The Minor plat provides for the
dedication of needed right-of-way for Denton Tap Road as well as a
deceleration lane on Denton Tap Road to serve the property.
In addition, the proposed entrance into this parcel must be relocated
approximately 30 feet to the north from the approved site plan to align
with the existing hooded left turn lane. This will allow for access to this
site from northbound Denton Tap Road. The proposed fire lane, utility
and mutual access easement will be extended to the north and the south of
this property to be utilized by the future retail uses the abutting sites.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Minor Plat for Magnolia Village,
Block 1, Lot A, subject to the driveway being relocated approximately 30
feet north from the location shown on the approved site plan.
