The Commissioners were concerned with the issue of saving as many trees as possible. Mr. Fraze stated that they would do everything possible to do this. The question was raised that perhaps this would work better as a (PD) Planned Development. The Commissioners were also concerned with the improvements to Lodge Road. Mr. Fraze stated that they intend to pave the other one-half of Lodge Road, and make the improvements as stated by staff earlier. Other concerns of the Commission included the fact that this property is one of the last undeveloped (SF-12) zoned areas left in the City, and that the developer needs to listen to the surrounding property owners, as well as the continued issue of saving the natural trees in this area. Following discussion Commissioner Gross moved to deny Case #ZC-525 without prejudice. Commissioner Redford seconded the motion; motion carried (7-0) with Chairman Munsch and Commissioners Green, Gross, Redford, Scott, Tunnel1 and Weaver voting in favor of the motion. PLATTING Item 9: Consider the abandonment of the final plat previously filed with Dallas County, and acceptance and approval of a corrected final plat for the Shadowridge Estates Addition, 4th Increment, located at the northwest corner of Plantation Drive and Bethel School Road. P&Z Coordinator Taryon Bowman introduced the item to the Commission. Ms. Bowman stated that the previously filed plat was approved by the City Council on September 8, 1989; however, the Engineering Company later determined that the grades were too steep along the north side of the property between the proposed subdivision and the existing subdivision to the north. To alleviate the problem of building a retaining wall along the north, the applicant increased the width of the platted alley from a required minimum of 15 feet to 20 feet. The Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed the corrected plat, and their only concern is with the maintenance of the grassy areas along the north side of the alley. She further stated that if the developer is willing to address that issue, then staff would have no objection to the approval of the corrected plat. Minutes of November 16, 1989 Planning & Zoning Commission Page 4 Mr. Steve Stolte of Centex Development was present to represent this item before the Commission. Mr. Stolte stated that another major reason for the corrected plat is that a GTE line runs along this property, and would have to be relocated if this corrected plat were not approved. Following discussion Commissioner Redford moved to abandon the previously filed plat, and to approve the corrected plat with the condition that a note is placed on the plat that the home owner is responsible for mowing the grass on the other side of the alley. Commissioner Scott seconded the motion~ motion carried (7-0) with Chairman Munsch and Commissioners Green, Gross, Redford, Scott, Tunnel1 and Weaver voting in favor of the motion. Item 10: Consider the abandonment of a final plat for Gateway Park at Coppell Addition, and the approval of an amended plat re-named Park West Commerce Center, located at the southwest corner of Beltline Road and Southwestern Boulevard, at the request of Prentis-Copley. P&Z Coordinator Taryon Bowman stated that they have asked the applicant to come in with a transportation plan before considering this plat. Therefore, the item is technically removed from the agenda; however, the Commission should officially deny the plat due to the 30 day rule. Following discussion Commissioner Scott moved to deny the preliminary plat and to abandon the final plat for Park West Addition. Commissioner Tunnell seconded the motion; motion carried (7-0) with Chairman Munsch and Commissioners Green, Gross, Redford, Scott, Tunnell and Weaver voting in favor of the motion. Item 11: Consider a preliminary plat for the Park Place Addition, located near the northeast corner of Heartz Road and Sandy Lake Road, at the request of Univest Development Company. Gary L. Sieb, Director of Planning and Community Services, introduced the item to the Conunission. Mr. Sieb stated that this plat was unanimously denied by the Planning and Zoning Commission without prejudice on October 19, 1989, for the following four reasons: Date: November 16, 1989 PLANNING DEPARTMENT CITY OF COPPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT RE: SHADOWRIDGE ESTATES, 4TH INCREMENT - CORRECTED PLAT LOCATION: Northwest corner of Bethel School Road and Plantation Drive. REQUEST: To consider the abandonment of the final plat previously filed with Dallas County, and acceptance and approval of a corrected final plat for the Shadowridge Estates Addition, 4th Increment. APPLICANT: Schrickle Rollins ~ Associates, Inc. 1161 Corporate Drive East, Suite 200 Arlington, Texas 76006 SUMMARY: The previously filed plat was approved by the City Council on September 8, 1989. The engineering firm representing this subdivision later determined that the grades were too steep along the north side of the property, between the proposed subdivision and the existing subdivision to the north. To alleviate the problems of building a retaining structure along the north side, the applicant increased the width of the platted alley from the required minimum of 15 feet to 20 feet. The Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed the corrected plat and is concerned with the maintenance of the grassy areas along the north side of the alley. At this time, the engineer is making attempts to work towards a solution for maintenance, and we will inform the Planning and Zoning Commission of any resolutions which may occur prior to the meeting.
