Whan CITY OF COPPELL PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT CASE: Sandy Lake Crossing Addition, Lot 2R, Block 1, Replat P & Z HEARING DATE: C.C. HEARING DATE: May 20, 2004 June 8, 2004 STAFF REP.: Marcie Diamond, Assistant Planning Director LOCATION: Along the south side of Sandy Lake Road, approximately 200 feet west of Denton Tap Road. SIZE OF AREA: 0.737 of an acre of property. CURRENT ZONING: R (Retail) REQUEST: Replat approval to allow the construction of an approximate 7,200-square-foot retail building. APPLICANT: HISTORY: Thomas J. Whan Creekside Construction, LTD. 160 Kristen Lane, Suite 1 Wylie, Texas 75098 972-442-4648 FAX: 972-442-3781 In 1987, a Final Plat for Sandy Lake Crossing, Lot 2, containing 32,095- square feet (0.737 acres), was approved. This plat established a 30-foot building line along Sandy Lake Road, a 24-foot fire lane easement stubbing out to the eastern property line and a 15-foot TU easement along the southern property line. An "ingress, egress, parkway, utilities Page 1 of 3 Item//15 and drainage easement" was also established in 1987 along the eastern property line. This driveway currently serves Exxon and McDonald's. TRANSPORTATION: Sandy Lake Road is a two-lane asphalt road within 110-foot right- of-way, shown on the Thoroughfare Plan as a C4D four-lane divided collector street. The improvements to this section of Sandy Lake Road are in the design stage. SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North- Albertson's Shopping Center; C (Commercial) South -vacant, C (Commercial) East - Exxon gas station and McDonald's; R (Retail) West -vacant, R (Retail) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for Neighborhood Retail Uses. DISCUSSION: When this property was platted in 1987, it established a fire lane, front building line and a 15-foot TU easement along the southern property line. This replat allows for the relocation of the existing fire lane easement to accommodate the proposed 7,200-square-foot retail building on this approximate 3/4 of an acre tract of land and the retention of the other existing easements. This fire lane is located in front of the building, parallel to Sandy Lake, and terminates at the western property line, allowing for the eventual extension onto the abutting property. It is recommended that this fire lane also be a designated as a mutual access easement to assure access to the property to the west. There is also an existing mutual access easement along the eastern property line that was established by separate instrument. This easement serves this property, as well as a secondary access point for the existing gas station and McDonald's restaurant. There are two minor drafting errors on this plat which need to be corrected prior to filing. First, in the surveyor's certificate, the name of the City needs to be changed from Chapel to Coppell. Second, in the City Secretary's signature block, the name of the plat needs to be included. Page 2 of 3 Item #15 The Engineering Department also reviewed this replat and preliminary engineering plans submitted with the Site Plan package. Although it appears to be in general compliance with the regulations of the Subdivision Ordinance, a condition, which states that additional comments may be generated and easements required at the time of detailed engineering review, is also included. RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff recommends APPROVAL of Sandy Lake Crossing Addition, Lot 2R, Block 1, subject to the following conditions: 1) Designating the fire lane parallel to Sandy Lake Road as a fire lane and mutual access easement. 2) Correcting the name of the City l~om Chapel to Coppell in the surveyor's certificate. 3) Adding the name of the plat in the City Secretary's signature block. 4) Additional comments may be generated and a need for additional easements may be identified as a result of a detailed engineering review. ALTERNATIVES 1) 2) 3) Recommend approval of the request. Recommend disapproval of the request. Recommend modification of the request.
