COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
medium density residential development.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this replat is twofold. The first involves a redefinition of a
common lot line between Lots 17 and 18 of Block D. The second is to
provide an extension of Lyndsie Drive south to the boundary of this plat.
Originally, Lot 17, Block D was an oversized residential lot with a
variable width drainage easement located along the western half of the lot.
Lot 18, Block D, was a common area that adjoined Lot 17. The original
configuration of Lot 18 was very similar to Lot 1, Block G of this current
replat. With this replat, the designation of Lot 18, Block D is given to the
drainage easement and it will continue to be used as a common area. The
change has impacted the lot numbering throughout the plat, as well as
increasing the total number of common areas to three.
Lyndsie Drive had originally terminated at the intersection with
Waterview Drive. However, during the development review process of
Phase 3 of Vistas of Coppell, staff recommended that the developer
provide a street connection between Phases 2 and 3. With this replat,
Lyndsie Drive will be extended south providing the recommended street
connection into Phase 3.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
The planning staff recommends approval of the replat subject to the
utilities certificate being modified to reflect a single signature block which
reads "TU Electric/Lone Star Gas/Lone Star Gas Pipeline".
