Item # 10
In September 1999, a request for a PD for a gas station,
convenience store and car wash on 1.5 acres at this coruer of S.H.
121 and MacArthur Boulevard was recommended for denial by
staff. Due to this recommendation, the applicant requested a
postponement until December of that year to allow for a redesign
of the Site Plan and Elevations to address staff design concerns,
but staff still strongly opposed the use at this location. On
December 16, 1999, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended denial of this requOst, and it was not appealed to
City Council.
In September 2001, Council apprgved a Site Plan and Replat to
allow for the construction of a oneqstory, 71,000-square-foot office
building on seven acres of this 26-acre parcel of land. The Site
Plan would have expired on September 11, 2003; however, on
September 9, 2003, Council approved a six-month extension. This
extension expired in March 2004.
On April 13, 2004, Council overruled staff's and Planning and
Zoning Commission's recommendation for denial and approved the
Concept Planned Development to allow the construction of
210,000-square feet of office/warehouse/assembly buildings and
five retail pad sites. In August 2004, Council approved the Detail
Plan for the first phase of this deVelopment, consisting of three
buildings, totaling 93,550-squaro feet. This first phase of
development is currently under construction. Council also
approved a Replat for the entire 25~81-acre tract at the same Public
Hearing.
Also approved in April of last year iwas SUP-1211 for a gas station
and car repair on Lot 4 of this PD. However, per Sec. 12-30-2.5
of the Zoning Ordinance, "A building permit shall be applied for
and secured within six months from the time of granting the special
use permit provided; however, the city council may authorize an
extension of this time upon recommendation by the planning and
zoning commission". The applicant did not seek an extension
prior to the expiration of the SUP; therefore, a new application is
currently being considered on this agenda.
On April 12, 2005, Council approx~ed a rezoning request to amend
PD-199-HC to allow for the develc~pment of the Bank of Texas on
Lot 5 of this subdivision, subjectI to requesting that the City of
Lewisville consider a deceleratioh lane to serve the southern
driveway of this tract. Per staff*s request, Council denied the

TRANSPORTATION:
S.H. 121 is under construction to! freeway standards with access
roads, with 450 feet of right-of+way. MacArthur Boulevard,
abutting this site, is in the City of Lewisville and is built as a six-
lane divided thoroughfare. Thd City of Lewisville has the
approval authority over driveway locations, deceleration lanes,
median openings, etc.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - S.H. 121, City of Lewisvil~e
South - PD-132-SF-9, The Peninsulas of Coppell, and PD-149-
SF-7, Vistas of Coppell
East - PD-202-TH-1 and office pa~k within the City of Lewisville
West - Vistas of Coppell, PD- 149-$F-7 (Single-Family)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
mixed-use development, including retail/commercial, office
parks, schools, churches,! and other compatible non-
residential uses.
DISCUSSION:
This Amending Plat encompasses the egtire 25.81 acres of property,
which was originally, replatted in Augus! of last year. The previous re-
plat established the fire and deceleratiox~ lanes, revised lot lines, and
reduced lot sizes due to required dedications. Since that time,
construction began on three office/warehguse/assembly buildings on Lot
1; a Site Plan for a bank was approved on Lot 5; and, also on this
agenda, is a request to re-approved the SUP for the gas
station/convenience store/car wash and car repair on Lot 4, which
expired in October of last year.
These activities required that detailed leng~neering be completed. It
became apparent that minor modificatiorls are required to the existing
filed plat to accommodate the proposed dOvelopments. This qualifies as a
Minor Amending Plat per Section 212 df the Local Government Code
and, therefore, neither notice nor hearingi is required for the approval of
this Amending Plat. However, given t~aat there has been significant
coordination issues among all parties ~nv01ved, whereas the various Site
Item # 10
Page 3 of 4
Plans and Plats did not match, it was! determined that this Plat be
reviewed concurrently with the SUP forI the service station, etc., and
closely follow the Site Plan a.,pproval for the bank. The proposed Replat
for the bank was, per staff s request, ~lenied by Council so that all
current information could be reflected on l[his Amending Plat.
In sum, this Amending Plat:
· Relocates the fire lanes approximately ~eight feet south to match
approved Site Plans;
· Revises and adds various lot dimensions;
· Reflects revisions to the fire lanes and~ocation of the mutual
access driveway for the bank on Lot 5i and
· Updates the Owner, Utility and City s~gnature blocks, as necessary.
As discussed in the companion SUP ~

property was rezoned over a year ago, is ti

deceleration lane needs to be reflected on this Amending Plat, prior to it's
filing with Denton County.
