In December 20~1, Council approved a plat and Special Use Permit-1193 for Grandy's restaurant. The approved Site Plan Item # 12 indicated a mutual access to the property Io the north. However, due to issues with the abutting property owner, tthe Site Plan was required to be revised to limit the access to two driveways along Fitness Court. Grandy's closed in July of 2004. TRANSPORTATION: Denton Tap Road is an improved six-lane divided thoroughfare (P6D) contained within a 100-foot Wide right-of-way.

DISCUSSION: This is the companion request to the Site Plan approval for Wachovia bank. As discussed, this property was previously platted to allow the construction of a Grandy's restaurant. Therefore, vafiou~ easements, both utility and fire lane, need to be revised to accommodate th~ new bank development. Since the utility plans were submitted and reviewed, a condition has been added which requires the sprinkling of the buildi,hg due to the grades of the fire lanes. Therefore, the Engineering Del~artment noted that additional comments during engineering review might!be forthcoming. One correction is needed to the City Secretary's signature block to include the specific name of the Replat being approved.
