ITEM 6
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN:
Coppell's masterplan suggests single-family development,
north of Bethel Road, and east of Coppell Road. But this
recommendation was made in 1985, which was prior to the
formation of the Coppell Historical Committee for the
old-town area. Recent discussions with the Historical
Committee indicate a desire for mixed-uses for this area of
Coppell.
ANALYSIS: Located on the subject property, is a residential structure
which was is existence prior to the time the property was
zoned for (R) Retail uses. The applicant purchased the
property in order to convert the structure to a floral shop
and office. As a requirement of the Comprehensive Zoning
Ordinance, where a non-conforming structure is to be used
only for a specific business and not a residential use,
the applicant must obtain a special use permit for the
specific use being conducted in such a structure. Said
business use may not be changed nor the structure converted
to a combined residence, without a special use permit. If
approved, this special use permit will allow the operation
of a floral shop and office within a non-conforming
residential structure.
Some opposition to this request has been expressed by the
Coppell Historical Committee. The primary concern of this
committee is that uses such as a beauty shop, would be
allowed as a part of this request for a RSUP zoning
designation. Retail zoning allows office uses as well as
retail. Staff suggests that the Special Use Permit be
limited to a floral shop and/or administrative or
professional offices. This type of action will help to
alleviate any undesirable uses within the proposed
Historical District. It is staff's understanding that the
Historical Committee will be present at the planning
hearing and will discuss the areas that they are concerned
with.
In summary, staff has no objections to this request to
allow the operation of a floral shop/professional or
administrative offices at this site; however, we recommend
that the permit be limited to these types of uses.
ALTERNATIVES: 1) Approve the zoning change
2) Deny the zoning change
3) Modify the zoning change
