Curtis 361 Hearthstone Lane 365 Hearthstone Lane Coppell, Texas 75019 Coppell, Texas 75019 Surveyor: Eddie Rodrigues Windrose Land Surveying 220 Elm Street Lewisville, Texas 75075 214-217-2544 eddie.rodriguez@WindroseServices.com HISTORY: The original subdivision was platted in early 1996. Lots 3, 4, and 5, Block 1 Old Coppell Estates were replatted in November 2008 to add a 20-foot strip of land (4,490 total square-feet) from the Vaughan Addition to each lot’s western boundary. In 2011, a replat of 361 Hearthstone, Lot 4R (current request area) and the lot abutting to the north, Lot 5R (357 Hearthstone) was approved which incorporated 0.9 acres from the northern portion the Vaughan Addition into the rear portion of these two existing lots. The H (Historic) District remained on the rear portions of the lots, which were formally the Vaughan Addition. In 2012, PD-256-SF-9 was established to allow the expansion 369 and 373 Hearthstone (lots directly to the south of the current request area) into the 0.76 acres ITEM # 5 Page 2 of 2 which was formally the utility building for a cable company. These lots were also replatted at that time. TRANSPORTATION: Hearthstone Lane is a local 28-foot wide street built within a 50-foot right-of- way. SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North – residential; SF-9 (Single Family-9), and H (Historic) South – residential; PD-256-SF-9 (Planned Development-256 -Single Family-9) East – residential; SF-9 (Single Family-9) West – undeveloped; H (Historic) COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan of March 2011 shows the property suitable as a Residential Neighborhood. DISCUSSION: This is a companion request to the replatting of 361 and 365 Hearthstone Lane, to rezone the rear portions of these properties from H (Historic) to SF-9 to have consistent residential development regulations on the entire property. As detailed in Staff Reports on the replatting of these lots, there is a long history of platting, and replatting to accommodate the property owners’ desires for their properties. The owner of 361 Hearthstone Lane is selling their property and is proposing to reduce it’s size, and increase the size of the lot to the south (365 Hearthstone Lane). This proposed revised lotting pattern is appropriate from a zoning and platting perspective, the two residential lots along Hearthstone will be the same depth as the two existing residential properties to the south (369 and 373 Hearthstone) and have uniform residential zoning. RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION: Staff is recommending APPROVAL of ZC-627, 361 and 365 Hearthstone Lane to rezone from H (Historic) to SF-9 (Single Family -9). ALTERNATIVES: 1. Recommend approval of the request 2. Recommend disapproval of the request 3. Recommend modification of the request ATTACHMENT: Zoning Exhibit
