HISTORY: In 1987, Council approved a Final Plat for the development of this shopping
center, including an approximate 65,000-square-foot anchor grocery store. This
store was originally a Skaggs Alpha Beta and became an Albertsons in the mid-
1990s. Albertsons closed in June 2008. A Special Use Permit for Sprouts was
approved in December 2008 to occupy 28,900 square feet of this space. In May
of 2015, Council approved a Special Use Permit for Urban Air to be located to
the east of Sprouts, containing 28,900 square feet. Subsequently, Urban Air and
ATA Karate were constructed, containing 28,340 square feet, 4,000 square feet,
respectively. A shared parking agreement has been in place since September
1986 for the four lots of the Connell Skaggs Addition.
On March 24, 2016, the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a Site Plan
Amendment for Señor Locos on Lot 1 which allowed the re-occupancy of a retail
space for a 6,040-square-foot restaurant with a 640-square-foot outdoor patio and
façade improvements (abutting the ATA Karate). At the same Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting, a Site Plan Amendment for Mi Cocina was
approved (abutting Denton Tap) which allowed the re-occupancy of a vacant
restaurant (formerly Sfizio’s) and retail space for a 4,900-square-foot restaurant,
with a 470-square-foot outdoor patio. Subsequent to the approval of these

amended, which states that each of the lots will need parking independent of each
other, or will provide sufficient parking through the use of separate shared
parking agreements.

existing retail building (Sprouts, Urban Air, ATA and Senor Locos) additional
parking to the rear of and development of a 30,800-square-foot, expansion in two
buildings. This building expansion has recently been completed, and the first
