COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
neighborhood retail uses.
DISCUSSION:
This is a dual request--one for site plan approval, the other a replat
application. With regard to the site plan request, the proposed office use
for this property is compatible with the Comprehensive Master Plan. In
general, the approximate 13,000 square foot office fits into the Town
Center area quite nicely. Siting the building back from Parkway
Boulevard is admirable, and with a bit more landscaping--particularly in
the center island--the site design could be quite striking. The
architecture of the building is complementary to Town Center with subtle
detail in windows, cast stone elements, and varied height. In addition,
an office use at this location adjacent to Town Center will generate
activity in harmony with that carried out in our city center. There is one
parking bay containing three parking spaces. As you are aware, all
required parking must be in bays of five spaces or more. This office
building requires 63 parking spaces and they are providing 66.
Therefore, the three-bay parking area above code requirements is
permissible.
The request for replat delineates where the required fire lanes are to be
placed on the ground. As such, staff has no technical comments to be
made, although there are two conditions to be addressed. The fire lanes
comply with City requirements.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff recommends approval of the site plan subject to the following
conditions:
-light standards not exceed 25 feet
-landscape with trees at ends of all parking bays
-brick pavers be shown on landscape plan
-dimension typical parking space; if less than 19 feet long
additional landscaping is required--see Zoning Ordinance
-show additional landscaping in center parking bay area
We also support the approval of the replat subject to:
-change title to: Replat of Lot 1-R
-show utility easements as required by TXU
