HISTORY:
Prior to 1973 the majority of the land between Denton Tap Road
and Coppell Road, north of the railroad and south of the present
location of Bethel Road, was zoned SF-7 and SF-10. In March of
1973 the City Council reclassified 99.771 acres to Commercial and
Planned Development for a Family Entertainment Complex at the
request of the owner, shown on the application as Coppell
Historical Corporation. At that time, the projected use was
envisioned to be similar to Sandy Lake Park. In January of 1991,
the Council reclassified 114.75 acres, which included the 99.771-
acre tract, from PD, C and R, to Planned Development - Light
Industrial at the request of Centre Development Co., representing
the Baptist Foundation of Texas, as owner. The conceptual plan
attached to the ordinance showed street development to serve
commercial, office and light industrial tracts surrounding the park
site and a proposed site for an extension facility of Texas A&M.
The 9.71 acre site, which is the subject of the current application,
is part of that property. There has been no platting to date.

TRANSPORTATION:

COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
medium density residential use.
DISCUSSION:
The preliminary plat should conform with whatever site plan is approved
for the planned development district, if in fact a planned development
district on the property is recommended for approval. Until that
recommendation is made the only action the Planning and Zoning
Commission can take is disapproval.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
The planning staff recommends disapproval of the preliminary plat until
such time as a PD site plan has been approved.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
