COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
light industrial/showroom uses.
DISCUSSION:
This site plan review is for two tracts of land that will be developed
concurrently. The applicant is proposing to build a total of 4
office/warehouse facilities, two on each tract of land. The combined square
footage of the structures amount to approximately half a million square feet.
The applicant is providing a number of extra parking spaces on both sites.
On Tract C (located on the east side of Enterprise Dr.) there are 93 additional
parking spaces and on Tract B (located on the west side of Enterprise Dr.)
there are 311 extra parking spaces. All four buildings are speculative
office/warehouse facilities, therefore, the tenant mix of each building will
affect how much space will be devoted to office and warehouse uses. The
percentage of office space in each building will dramatically affect the amount
of required parking spaces. The parking ratio for office is 1 parking space
for every 300 s.f. While, the parking ratio for warehouse is 1 parking space
for every 1,000 s.f. The supplementary parking spaces provides the
developer with the flexibility to accommodate a variety of tenant mixes.
Originally, staff had some concern with the amount of landscaping provided
on both sites based on the size of buildings, truck courts, and amount of
parking spaces proposed. After receiving the landscape tabulations from the
applicant, staff is confident that the plans meet the minimum landscape
requirements. Also, a notation will have to be added on both the Site and
Landscape plans indicating that the applicant requests that City Council
modify the screening of truck courts from a street with a 6 foot high brick
masonry screening wall requirement to allow living screens. The applicant is
proposing to screen the truck courts with 3 foot high berms with Live Oaks
and Leyland Cypress trees planted on top of the berms.
The site acreage shown on the Site Plan does not match the information on
the replats. Lot 3 needs to be shown in its entirety on both the Site Plan and
Landscape Plan. Therefore, the applicant will have to modify the site and
landscape information on all the exhibits. Also, landscape treatment of the
additional 47,000 s.f. of land on Lot 3 needs to be shown.
Item # 11
The architecture of the proposed warehouse facilities will be similar to the
Park West Distribution Center I and II on Executive Drive. All four
buildings will be a two-toned painted tilt wall structures (white/gray) with
tinted gray windows with black anodized mullions. Paint colors of tilt wall
and truck bay doors will have to be specified on the building elevations. At
this time, neither the site plan nor elevations show monument or attached
signs. Also, the elevations for Building 4 will have to be relabeled as east,
west, north and south.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan subject to the following conditions being met:
1) City Council approval of a variance to the screening wall requirement to allow a living
screen.
2) Specify paint colors for tilt wall and truck bay doors on the building elevations.
3) Relabel Elevations for Building 4 as east, west, north, and south.
4) Correct the acreage shown on the Site Plan for Tract B to 16.172 acres and Tract C to
14.616 acres.
5) Correct the Tabulations Tables on the Site Plan reflecting the total site area for Tract B as
704,441 s.f. and 636, 673 s.f. for Tract C. Also, revise all other tabulations on all the
exhibits accordingly.
6) Show Lot 3 in its entirety on Site and Landscape Plans. Show treatment of the
additional 47,000 sf. of land on Lot 3 on the Landscape Plan.
