spaces was approved for the IAAM site. Phase One involved
covering six parking spaces and was constructed in April, 2003
and no additional parking covers have been constructed. The
final plat for Lot 1, Block 1, IAAM HQ was approved in July, 1999,
and construction of the building followed later that year.
TRANSPORTATION: Fritz Road (formerly Cotton Road) is a C2U two lane undivided
roadway built to standard in a 65-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE 8~ ZONING:
North -Industrial warehousing: LI (Light Industrial)
South -Interstate Highway 635; A (Agricultural)
East - vacant; HC (Highway Commercial)
West- Interstate Highway 635; A(Agricultural)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for
freeway office uses.
DISCUSSION: This is a fairly simple request. The applicant is proposing to amend
the current SUP by updating and relocating the equipment on
site. The current location is to the southeast of the existing
transmission pole and the proposed location is to the south. This
will involve the removal of the Red-Tipped Photenias (no longer
allowed by Ordinance) that are acting to screen the existing
equipment area. The new shelter for the equipment will be
constructed of materials to match that of the IAAM Headquarters.
This shelter will be screened with Nellie R. Stevens (permissible
evergreen shrubs found on the plant palette of the Zoning
Ordinance). There are only two concerns. One involves the utility
equipment shown on the ecst side of the proposed shelter. Per
the direction of staff, a wing wall is proposed to screen the utility
equipment shown on the east side of the structure. There does
not appear to be adequate room for maintenance of or access
to the equipment if installed as depicted. This is listed as a
condition of approval to allow four feet of ciear space for access
and/or maintenance. Another condition of approval will be
submittal of written permission from the owner of the property for
the zone change to occur. All and all, staff is in favor of the
request subject to these two conditions being met as well as
minor adj~stments to the elevation plans.
