COMPREHENSWE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
Public/Institutional uses.
DISCUSSION:
The applicant is requesting replat approval for Lot 1, Block A, Valley
Ranch Baptist Church Addition, to allow for the second phase of the
church to be developed.
The subject request is to replat the 7.5 acres of property, establishing
necessary easements and fire lanes and abandoning the existing fire lane
turnarounds located in the southwest comer of the site. No additional
right-of-way is required along Belt Line Road, as this was handled with
the initial development of the church.
Staff's only concern with the plat is the provision of 25' fire lanes serving
the entire site. The existing church is served by 25' fire lanes and staff has
no objection to continuing 25' fire lanes throughout the expanded parking
lot. However, the 25' wide fire lane is currently encroaching in required
parking spaces. Staff recommends that the applicant provide all fire lanes
consistent with that on the PD-196 Site Plan for the church, which would
entail either shifting the 25' fire lanes or reducing the fire lane to 24'
wide.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of the Replat of Lot 1, Block A, Valley Ranch Baptist Church
Addition, subject to the following:
1. Revise all fire lane dimensions to be consistent with that shown on the PD-196
Valley Ranch Baptist Church Site Plan.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Recommend approval of the request.
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
