In 1999, City Council approved a replat for the northern 4.1 acres to make this tract a separate lot. This approval was subject to a condition that any modification to the existing building would require a site plan review and a replat. The Planning and Zoning Commission denied the replat for this property on May 20, 2004, due to changes that needed to be made to the north and west elevations of the Site Plan package. Both Royal Lane and Sandy Lake Road are projected to be C4D/6, four-lane divided thoroughfares in a six-lane divided right-of-way. SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North- Vacant, LI (Light Industrial) South - Stone Panels, Inc., LI (Light Industrial) East - AmberPoint Business Park, LI (Light Industrial) West - Vacant, LI (Light Industrial) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of May 1996 shows the property as suitable for Light Industrial/Showroom. DISCUSSION: Page 2 of 4 This is a 4. l-acre replat of the Four Seasons Addition, Lot 2. A 57,302- square-foot office/warehouse is proposed. BCE Specialties, Inc., an elevator finishing company, will be the primary tenant and occupy 22,76 l- square feet. The business does the interior finish-out of elevators, then ships them to their final destination. The remaining six lease spaces will range from 5,000- to 7,515-square feet, and the tenants are currently unknown. There are three proposed ingress/egress points (two from Sandy Lake and one from Royal). The access point along Royal is shown at the south end of the property, but will have to be relocated due to drainage concerns regarding the location of a storm water inlet. The fire lane easement encircles the building and is accessible off two of the three ingress/egress Item # 5 points. The location of the fire lane easement will be need to be revised to reflect the access point relocation along Royal. it will be reevaluated by the Fire Marshal to ensure conformance with the City of Coppell standards. The access point along Royal will not need to be relocated provided the Engineering Department approves a modified drainage plan. There is a 24' access easement depicted on the northeast comer of the property. This will need to be extended to connect with the fire lane and be renamed a fire lane and access easement. There is a 24' fire lane and access easement shown connected by an access easement to the east. There are other minor technical details outlined in the plat conditions. After those are met, the subdivision will meet the Subdivision Ordinance requirements. The technical details outlined in the plat conditions were met. RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Replat, subject to the following conditions being met: 2003. 7) Compliance with the attached Engineering comments.

Griffin, P.E., Dir. o~CEngineering/Public Works 972/304-3686 COMMENT STATUS: ~FJ~r~J~4V~4?4z v~ FINAL RE!qtY..ED Plat - No comments. Preliminary Grading Plan - 1. Regarding the note that says "Contractor to obtain permission in writing from property owner prior to commencing offsite grading work"...the City will need that written permission before the permit is issued. 2. There is an existing inlet at a low point in Royal Lane where you are showing to construct your driveway. Due to the fact that it is a low point, the driveway should be relocated to avoid the inlet. Preliminary Drainage Plan - 1. Relocate driveway out of the way of the low point inlet in Royal Lane. 2. The timing of this project needs to be taken into consideration with the timing for the Sandy Lake Road widening project. We expect that the road will be under construction beginning in October of this year. if the drainage that is to be constructed with that project is not in place, you will need temporary headwall structures on your outfalls, and some type of temporary bridge structure for your driveways. Alternatively, you can construct the driveways at a later date, but at any rate, coordination is a must for these projects. Additional comments may be generated during full engineering review.
