There has been no recent platting history on this parcel, just
zoning. Subsequent to the October 20, 1994 Planning Commission
meeting, the applicant submitted a letter asking that this plat be
withdrawn for further study. The Commission complied.
Coppell Road is an unimproved C4D/6 to be built in 110 feet of

Item 6
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - vacant; SF-7
South - developed single-family; PD SF-9
East - vacant; SF~12
West - developing single-family; PD SF-9
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The 1987 Plan showed retail; the re-analysis suggested
single-family as most appropriate land use.
ANALYSIS:
ALTERNATIVES:
Comments have been made earlier regarding the entrance to this
community, landscaping, the tree survey, floodplain, alley requirements,
finished floor elevations, etc., and your attention is invited to the
appropriate section of the zoning analysis for additional information. We
did not specifically discuss the inclusion of the hike/bike trail in the
zoning discussion, but suffice it to say that this developer has shown it on
his preliminary plat, and understands it is to be constructed at his cost.
We have also received a preliminary copy of the Hom~wner's
Agreement, and our City Attorney is reviewing it for conformance with
our guide. Water, sewer, and drainage issues are included in the attached
memo from Engineering--as well as other related items--and staff would
recommend approval of the plat subject to all our conditions being met.
The re-submittal of this plat addresses the concerns expressed above,
although the notes on the face of the plat have several spelling errors
which need to be corrected. In addition note 6 needs to be clarified to
indicate a "...4 foot wide fence easement...", and the width of the
hike/bike trail needs to be stated. There was some concern expressed in
staff review of the latest plan that Lot 1 Block A might not be a buildable
lot. It is our understanding that the applicant can build a viable product
on all lots platted and meet our minimum setback requirements.
Assuming all our concerns are adequately addressed, staff would
recommend approval of this preliminary plat.
1) Approve the Preliminary Plat
2) Deny the Preliminary Plat
3) Modify the Plat
