Feb 26, 2024 Planning &amp; Zoning 022624

COMMISSIONER, MAD.

SO THIS, UH, PROPERTY IS NOT WITHIN THE OVERLAY, SO APPENDIX F DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS PROPERTY.

THE ONLY QUESTION I HAD WAS THE PROXIMITY OF, UH, NEAR THE OTHER, UM, THE OTHER, THE SURROUNDINGS.

I BELIEVE THERE'S SINGLE FAMILY.

AND THEN, UM, WHAT, WHAT ELSE IS THAT? CAN YOU PULL UP THAT, THAT PORTION THAT SHOWS THE, UH, DIFFERENT, UM, AREAS AROUND THE PROPERTY? OH, UH, IT'S ON THE STAFF REPORT, BUT THIS IS THE LOCATION MAP.

AND SO TO THE NORTH IS SINGLE FAMILY.

UH, TO THE EAST IS SINGLE FAMILY WEST IS, UH, GENERAL RETAIL.

UH, AND SOUTH IS RETAIL TOO.

I THINK THERE'S A DRIVE THROUGH, UH, BURGER KING TO THE WEST.

THE ONLY REASON I ASKED THAT IS THAT WAS THERE ANY CONVERSATION WITH THE COMMUNITY? BECAUSE THAT'S PIONEER.

THAT'S PRETTY BUSY ALREADY RIGHT THERE.

SO, NOT THAT I KNOW OF.

I CAN CHECK WITH THE APPLICANT IF THERE WAS, AGAIN, THIS IS A SITE PLAN, SO, UH, IT'S NOT A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT.

THEY ARE ALLOWED BY RIDE TO APPLY FOR THE SITE.

I WAS JUST, JUST CURIOUS.

DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS? NO.

NOPE.

ALRIGHT.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS? COMMISSIONERS? THIS IS, THIS IS MY, THIS IS DISTRICT FIVE WAY DOWN HERE.

OH, I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION.

IT'S SAYING IT'S DISTRICT FIVE WAY DOWN THERE AT PIONEER AND BELTLINE.

IS THAT, UH, ISN'T IT DISTRICT? IT SAYS DISTRICT.

UH, IT'S SAYING FIVE, BUT THAT'S, IT SAYS FIVE.

IS IT? IS IT FIVE? I, YEAH.

I'LL DOUBLE CHECK.

WE CAN VERIFY.

YEAH, THAT'S, THAT'S MINE.

YEAH, THAT'S YOURS.

I'LL DOUBLE CHECK THE DISTRICT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO, I THINK THAT'S IT.

THANKS FOR BRINGING IT UP.

'CAUSE I ASSUMED IT WAS FIVE.

GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

HI, BRITTANY.

SO THIS IS, IS AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 13, TP 2 4 0 1 0 0 0 3.

THIS IS A SITE PLAN REQUEST LOCATED AT 9 0 2 WEST SHADY GROVE ROAD.

IT'S FOR A NEW SPECULATIVE WAREHOUSE.

IT IS OWNED BY INDUSTRIAL AND IT'S ON

[00:05:01]

FEW A, A FEW PARCELS AT OUR 14.075 ACRES.

SO IT'S A 232,440 SQUARE FOOT WAREHOUSE.

IT IS MEETING ALL OF OUR DENSITY AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS, OUR PARKING STANDARDS AND OUR APPENDIX X STANDARDS AGAIN.

AND IT'S ALSO MEETING OUR LANDSCAPE STANDARDS AND OUR MITIGATION REQUIREMENT.

THEY ARE HAVING TO PROVIDE A MITIGATION FEE, UH, FOR 800, OR I'M SORRY, 586 CAL PER INCHES THAT ARE GOING TO BE REMOVED.

AND SO THE MITIGATION FEE WILL BE $117,200.

SO THIS IS, THESE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS THERE.

IT'S A HUNDRED PERCENT.

IT'S MEETING A HUNDRED PERCENT MASONRY REQUIREMENTS.

THEY'VE GOT HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL ARTICULATION AND ACCENT LIGHTING IN PARTICULAR ON THE PRIMARY FACADE.

SO AGAIN, THEY ARE MEETING ALL OF THOSE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR APPENDIX X.

SO THESE ARE THE WEST AND EASTERN ELEVATIONS.

THE APPLICANT IS NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

AND DRC RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

THAT CONCLUDES STAFF PRESENTATION.

I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? I THINK THE ONLY THING I WAS GONNA ASK IS THAT THE, THE DOCKING, THIS IS A PRETTY LARGE FACILITY.

SO IS THAT GONNA BE, HOW IS THAT, IS THAT CLOSE TO THE FREEWAY OR? SO ALL THE DOCKS ARE ON THE EASTERN SIDE.

WHICH IS SCREENED FROM, AND IT'LL BE SCREENED BOTH FROM THE, UH, ROADWAY TO THE WEST AND TO THE NORTH.

AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 14 IS STP 23 11 0 0 27.

THIS IS AGAIN, ANOTHER SITE PLAN REQUEST.

THIS IS FOR MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL WITH 439 UNITS ON 31.85 ACRES.

IT'S LOCATED AT 4 6 1 0 GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY.

SO ON THAT HARD CORNER OF LAKE RIDGE AND GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY, UM, IT IS ZONE PD 4 4 8.

SO JUST A LITTLE HISTORY ON THIS SITE.

SO BACK IN 1982, UH, PD WAS APPROVED FOR MULTITUDE OF USES INCLUDING MEDIUM TO HIGH DENSITY.

UM, IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR, THEY HAD TO COME BACK AND GET THE CONCEPT PLAN TO GO WITH IT.

'CAUSE THAT'S JUST A RULE FOR OUR PDS NOW.

UM, AND IT WAS APPROVED BACK IN JANUARY.

SO THE BASE ZONING IS FOR MULTIFAMILY.

SO THIS IS ALLOWED BY WRIGHT.

SO LIKE I SAID, IT'S 4 39 UNITS OVER FIVE BUILDINGS.

THE BUILDINGS IN BLUE ARE THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS.

THE ONE IN ORANGE IS THEIR CLUBHOUSE, WHERE THEIR POOL WILL ALSO BE LOCATED.

UM, LIKE I SAID, ACCESS IS OFF OF LAKERIDGE PARKWAY AND GR GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY.

THEY'RE PROVIDING THE CLUBHOUSE AND POOL AS THEIR AMENITIES.

AND IT IS ME MEETING OUR DENSITY AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND OUR PARKING REQUIREMENTS.

IT'S ALSO MEETING OUR LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS AND OUR SCREENING REQUIREMENTS ALONG GREAT SOUTHWEST AND LAKERIDGE.

THEY ARE HAVING TO REQUEST A SPECIAL, SPECIAL EXCEPTION FOR SCREENING ALONG THE NORTHERN EASTERN PROPERTY LINES.

SO THAT'S ALL IN FLOOD PLAIN.

AND WHENEVER WE HAVE FLOOD PLAIN ISSUES, MASONRY SCREENING IS REALLY NOT ALLOWED, UM, FOR SAFETY REASONS.

SO THEY ARE REQUESTING SPECIAL EXCEPTION FOR THAT.

BUT OTHERWISE, THEY'RE MEETING ALL THE LANDSCAPE AND SCREENING REQUIREMENTS.

THEY DID HAVE TO PROVIDE A TREE SURVEY AND MITIGATION.

SO THEY'RE HAVING TO MITIGATE 1331.8 CALIPER INCHES.

SO THEY'RE LOOKING AT A FEE OF $266,360.

SO THESE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS.

IT'S PRIMARY MASONRY AND CEMENT FIBER, UM, PANELS, THEY ARE MEETING ALL OF OUR OR NOT REQUIRED, SO IF FOR APPENDIX W THEY ARE RECOMMENDED, UH, DENSITY OR RECOMMENDED, UM, DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR OUR BUILDING ELEVATIONS.

AND THEY ARE MEETING ALL OF THEM.

SO FOR APPENDIX W THEY ALSO DO HAVE TO PROVIDE AMENITIES OUT OF TWO OF THREE CATEGORIES, THEY'VE SELECTED HIGH QUALITY FEATURES OR DESIGNS AND TECHNOLOGY.

SO THEY ARE MEETING ALL THE APPENDIX W AMENITY REQUIREMENTS AS WELL.

SO APPLICANT'S NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

DRC RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

COMMISSIONER MADDEN.

SO I WAS WONDERING, UM, DOES TRAFFIC HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT, I SEE THAT THERE'S AN EXIT THAT GOES OUT ON GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY.

SORRY, MY GLASSES ARE TALKING.

UM, THAT GOES OUT ON GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY, BUT IT'S RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER FROM THE, I THINK THERE'S EVEN A TURN LANE FROM SOUTHBOUND LAKE RIDGE.

AND IS THAT AN EMERGENCY EXIT OR IS THAT A MAIN EXIT? JUST BECAUSE IT, UNLESS THERE'S AN ACCELERATION LANE, IT JUST, IT'S REALLY, REALLY CLOSE TO THAT BLIND CORNER COMING AROUND.

I JUST WONDERED IF Y'ALL HAD HAD ANY OPINION ON THAT.

SO WE TOOK A LOOK AT THE SPACING REQUIREMENTS ON THAT, AND IT DOES MEET THE, THOSE REQUIREMENTS.

THEY'RE ALSO PUTTING IN A DECELERATION.

IS IT NOT WORKING? UM, SO THEY, THEY DID MEET THE SPACING REQUIREMENT THAT THEY ARE PUTTING A DECELERATION LANE IN.

I DON'T THINK THAT WE HAD ANY VISIBILITY ISSUES THERE.

COULD PROBABLY GO BACK AND DOUBLE CHECK.

UH, I THINK THAT WOULD BE FROM A SCREENING WALL OR SOMETHING THAT WOULD BLOCK THAT.

UM, BUT NO, WE DIDN'T SEE ANY, ANY SIGNIFICANT ISSUES WITH THAT.

IS THAT, IS THAT A MAIN USE ENTRY AND EXIT OR IS THAT A IT IT IS A SECONDARY POINT OF ACCESS FOR THE MAIN ENTRY IS AT THE INTERSECTION OF POLO AND LAKE RIDGE IS AN EMERGENCY ACCESS UP FURTHER NORTH ON LAKE RIDGE.

UH, SO THIS WOULD BE A SIDE ENTRY FOR THAT MM-HMM .

UH, BUT IT WOULD ONLY BE FOR THE, I GUESS, NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC ON GREAT SOUTHWEST.

I DON'T BELIEVE THERE'S A MEDIUM BREAK THERE.

[00:10:01]

I JUST, IT LOOKS LIKE, IS THIS A GATED PROPERTY? YES.

THAT'S ANOTHER CONCERN.

SAME, SAME LINE OF THOUGHT.

IS PEOPLE WAITING AND GETTING OUT ON CAR.

BUT I HEAR YOU.

SO THE DESAL LANE SHOULD HELP WITH QUEUING IF THERE IS ANY.

THERE IS, UH, THE FENCE IS SETBACK.

OUR MINIMUM A HUNDRED FEET REQUIREMENT.

THERE IS A CALL BOX, I BELIEVE WITH A TURNAROUND THERE.

UM, SO THE QUEUING SHOULD TAKE OFF PLACE ON THE PROPERTY AND OR WITHIN THE, THE TURN LANE IF IT REALLY IS EXCEEDING THAT.

TYPICAL A HUNDRED FEET, WHICH IS WHAT WE REQUIRE.

COMMISSIONER, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I DO HAVE A QUESTION.

JUST, UH, THIS THE PROPERTY THAT WAS TABLED.

NOW CAN YOU SHOW, I MEAN, I CAN'T TELL WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS IF IT'S IS.

THE SLIDES ARE HARD TO SEE MM-HMM .

AS FAR AS WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS WHAT COUNCIL WANTED BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T SATISFIED WITH THE DESIGN.

SO YEAH.

THEY, THEY WEREN'T THE, WHAT WAS THE HOLD UP IN ZONING WAS THE ELEVATIONS.

AND SO THESE ELEVATIONS ARE LARGELY CONFORMING TO WHAT WAS APPROVED BY COUNCIL.

SO THIS WAS THE CONCEPT ELEVATION.

THEY'VE SINCE COME THROUGH AND GIVEN US FULL BUILDING ELEVATIONS, BUT IT IS LARGELY CONFORMING BECAUSE THAT, THAT THE, THIS LOOKS MUCH BETTER THAN WHAT I JUST SAW A MINUTE AGO.

SO I THINK IT'S JUST BECAUSE THE RENDERING IS MORE 3D SO IT'S EASIER TO SEE, UM, GET AN IDEA.

THAT'S, THAT'S THE ONLY LIVE PICTURE YOU HAVE.

SO THAT'S, THAT WAS A SE A REAL CONCERN AND THAT IT SHOULD BE BECAUSE WE WANT THAT TO BE IN STEP WITH EVERYTHING ELSE.

AND THAT FACADE IS REALLY IMPORTANT.

SO IF YOU GUYS ARE HAPPY WITH IT, I GUESS THAT'S A GOOD SIGN.

SAVANNAH, YOU HAPPY WITH IT? IF SAVANNAH'S HAPPY WITH IT, IT MUST BE PRETTY GOOD.

GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS WITH REGARD TO THIS CASE? THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, BRITTANY.

THE ITEM NUMBER 15 IS SUP AND SITE PLAN FOR QUICKTRIP LOCATED AT 9 0 1 MACARTHUR BOULEVARD, SUP 23 10 0 0 4 3.

SO THIS IS THE AREA WHERE THEY'RE GONNA BE LOCATED.

IT'S THE WEST OF MACARTHUR DRIVE, KIND OF SOUTH OF I 30.

THE CITY LIMITS IS KIND OF SLIGHTLY TOWARD THE EAST.

THEY ARE PROPOSING A 5,300 SQUARE FEET CONVENIENCE STORE WITH THE GAS SALES ON ABOUT 2.04 ACRES.

SO YOU CAN KIND OF SEE WHERE THEY ARE GENERALLY LOCATED.

THIS IS WHERE THE CANOPY WILL GO AND THIS IS WHERE THE BUILDING WILL GO.

YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THAT ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME ESTABLISHED NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND THERE, THE PROPERTIES IMMEDIATELY A, A BUDDING OR ADJACENT TO THIS PROPOSAL ARE NON-RESIDENTIAL, CURRENTLY USED AS NON-RESIDENTIAL USES.

AND THEY WERE STARTING TO SEE SOME OF THESE, UH, LARGER WAREHOUSES BEING DEVELOPED IN THIS DIRECTION.

SO AGAIN, THIS IS NORTH TOWARD THE I 30.

THIS IS THE MACARTHUR.

THIS IS THE BUILDING THAT WILL BE FACING MACARTHUR IN THE CANOPY ALONG MACARTHUR, NOT WITH I 30.

JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU THAT.

UM, THEY HAVE SET THEIR PROPERTY APART AT LEAST 180 FEET AWAY FROM THE GIFFORD STREET, SO THAT UM, AT LEAST THEY'LL MAINTAIN CERTAIN DISTANCES AWAY FROM THE ESTABLISHING OF FAMILY DEVELOPMENT.

THEY ARE EITHER MEETING OR EXCEEDING THE REQUIRED LANDSCAPING.

THEY'RE PROVIDING STREET TREES AND SOME RAIN GARDENS AT THE FRONT ALONG HERE AS SHOWN.

SO THIS IS THEIR ELEVATION.

THEY ARE IN THE APPENDIX F OVERLAID, UM, DISTRICT IN THE I 30 OR CORRIDOR OVERLAY.

THEY ARE USING BRICK AND STONE ACCENT TO KIND OF CREATE THE VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL INNERS.

THEY ARE PROVIDING SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WINDOWS AND GLAZING AND THEY ARE PROVIDING CANOPIES OVER THESE OPENINGS.

THEY DO REQUEST SOME VARIANCES FOR THE OVERALL WINDOW PERCENTAGES, WHICH I WILL COVER A LITTLE BIT LATER WITH OTHER VARIANCES.

SO THE FUEL CANOPY DOES FEATURE THE COLUMNS WRAPPED IN BRICK, WHICH IS WHAT WE EXPECT IN THE APPENDIX F AREA.

THEY ARE PROVIDING THE APPENDIX F UH, MENU ITEMS. THEY'RE PROVIDING 14 WHEN 12 IS REQUIRED.

SO THIS IS JUST KIND OF A BIG, UM, KIND OF OVERALL, UM, VIEW OF WHERE ALL THESE UH, GAS STATIONS ARE CURRENTLY LOCATED.

SO YOU'RE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH THIS AREA WHERE THE BELTLINE AND THE I 30 INTERSECTS, THAT'S WHERE THE RACETRACK AND QUICKTRIP THAT THERE'S THIS, UM, LARGE, UH, AUTO DEALER HERE.

AND THIS IS OUR ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT.

YOU KIND OF BE ABLE TO LOCATE WHERE YOU ARE, RIGHT? SO IF YOU'RE DRIVING TOWARD THE CITY HALL, THIS IS A TARRANT STREET, YOU STILL SEE SOME, UM, GAS STATIONS.

SO I DO WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT, UM, THIS IS THE SUBJECT SITE AND THE BLUE REPRESENTS THE ONE MILE.

WITHIN THE ONE MILE.

THEY DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER GAS STATIONS.

UM, THEY DO HAVE A VERY SMALL NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE HANDY SHOP.

IT'S A CONVENIENCE STORE THAT PROBABLY WAS CREATED TO SERVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE BACK IN THE DAY.

IT SEEMS TO BE STILL OPERATING.

THEY HAVE TWO FUEL PUMPS WITH THEM.

UM, OTHER THAN THAT, THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE.

I DID WANTED TO POINT OUT HOWEVER, THAT THEY HAVE ANOTHER QUICK TRIP ABOUT TWO AND A HALF FEET AWAY FROM, UM, I'M SORRY, TWO AND A 2.3 MILES .

SORRY, TWO AND A HALF.

SORRY, 2.3 MILES AWAY.

UM, SO, BUT

[00:15:01]

ONE THING I DID DID WANNA POINT TO YOU IS THIS KIND OF A, YOU KNOW, DETERMINING FACTOR IS.

SO THIS IS THE CITY LIMITS RIGHT THERE WITH THEIR RED LINE.

SO FROM THIS PROPOSED SITE, WE HAVE ABOUT TWO MILES WITH NO GAS STATIONS.

I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT MIGHT BE WHY THEY'RE THINKING THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD LOCATION.

SO THEY DO HAVE ANOTHER PICTURE TRIP OUTSIDE OF CITY BOUNDARY THAT'S ABOUT, UH, ANOTHER TWO AND A HALF MILES AWAY OR SO.

BUT ALONG I 30, THE MIX AVAILABLE GAS STATIONS ABOUT ANOTHER MILE FURTHER THE TOWN.

UM, WE DO HAVE THESE AREA KIND OF OPEN BECAUSE THESE ARE MOSTLY WETLANDS IN PHILIPP PLAINS OR DIFFICULT TO DEVELOP.

SO JUST WANTED TO KIND OF LET YOU KNOW WHAT IS THERE, BECAUSE I THINK, UM, YOU ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH THE CONCENTRATION OF GAS STATION ALONG BELT LINES.

SO JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU KIND OF OVERALL PICTURE FOR YOUR DETERMINATION.

SO WITH THAT, THEY'RE ASKING FOR TWO VARIANCES.

THE, UH, FIRST ONE IS THE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES.

AS YOU'RE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH.

UM, MOST OF THE QUICK TRIP, THEY USUALLY HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS TRYING TO BUY COFFEE OR MAKE A QUICK RUN WHILE THEY'RE FUELING UP.

SO THEY DID PROVIDE A PARKING THAT'S EXCEEDING WHAT WE ALLOW.

HOWEVER, THEY DID PROVIDE PERMEABLE PARKING AS A COMPENSATORY MEASURE IN THE APPENDIX F.

THEY NEED TO REQUEST THE VARIANCE, BUT, UM, AS LONG AS THEY PROVIDE THE, UH, PERMEABLE PARKING, WE HAVE APPROVED THESE VARIANCES IN OTHER LOCATIONS.

AS BEFORE.

ONE LAST THING I WANNA POINT OUT IS THAT, SO THIS IS THE FRONT FACING ELEVATION, UH, MACARTHUR.

UM, THEY HAD PROVIDED A 60% OF GLAZING, WHICH IS ACTUALLY DOUBLE OF THE REQUIREMENT.

AND THEY HAD PROVIDED 42% OF IT MASON HERE BECAUSE THE BACK AREA, AS YOU CAN KIND OF IMAGINE, THEY HAVE TO HAVE STOCK ROOMS, REFRIGERATORS AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.

THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE ANY OPENINGS.

SO IN OVERALL, THEY ARE NOT MEETING THE 50%.

HOWEVER, STAFF WANTED TO POINT OUT 39%.

UM, WE HAVE GIVEN SIMILAR VARIANCES, OTHER RESTAURANTS WHERE THEY HAVE DRIVE-THROUGHS OR CONVENIENCE STORES.

SO STAFF DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH THAT.

AND THAT BELT ELEVATION THAT DOESN'T HAVE HAVE A WINDOW, IF YOU KIND OF LOOK AT IT, IT'S LIKELY GONNA BE DEVELOPED BY ANOTHER COMMERCIAL AT THAT POINT.

IT MIGHT NOT BE VERY IMPORTANT 'CAUSE IT'S NOT FACING ANY OF THE PUBLIC STREETS.

THAT CONCLUDES THAT PRESENTATION.

WITH THAT, UM, STAFF HAD FEW CONDITIONS AS PART OF THIS CONSIDERATION.

SO DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS.

SO THE CORE SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED WITH EITHER EFIS OR OTHER MASONRY.

I'M GONNA READ THIS THROUGH AND I'M, I'LL TRY TO SHOW YOU WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DURING, UM, GOING BACK TO THE PRESENTATION AND THE APPLICANT HAS PREPARED SOME PHOTOS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION FOR SOME OF THESE CONDITIONS TO SEE IF YOU'LL BE WILLING TO REMOVE SOME OF THEM.

SO WITH THAT, UM, THE FIRST CONDITION IS THAT THE CORNEA SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED WITH EITHER EFIS OR OTHER MASONRY ILLUMINATED.

NATIVE LED BANDS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE METAL CANOPY ON ON THE BUILDING.

ILLUMINATED RED BANDS ON THE FIELD CANOPY NOT ALLOWED.

TRUCK IDLING WITHIN 300 FEET OF A RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE SHALL BE LIMITED TO A PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED 15 MINUTES.

THIS IS PRETTY STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS THAT WE ALWAYS PUT ON OTHER PLACES AS WELL.

AND APPLICANT SHALL POST NO IDLING SIGN ON SITE.

THIS IS ALSO A TYPICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN.

SO TO GO BACK TO THE FIRST, UH, REQUEST, AS YOU CAN SEE, UM, THEY DID A REALLY NICE RENDERING SHOWING THAT THIS WILL BE ALUMINUM CORNICE.

AND I THINK THAT'S, UM, OFTEN SEEN IN OTHER LOCATIONS AS WELL.

UH, BECAUSE THIS WAS AN APPENDIX F STEP, WANTING TO SEE IF THEY'LL WILL WILLING TO SWITCH OUT FOR OTHER BASICALLY MATERIAL.

THEY DID SAY PART OF IT IS THE LEAKAGE AND OTHER THINGS, BUT I'LL LEAVE THAT FOR APPLICANT TO EXPLAIN WHY THEY'RE REQUESTING IT.

SO THE RED LED BAND THAT I'M TALKING ABOUT THAT'S INTERNALLY LIT IS FOR THIS PORTION.

SO THIS IS NOT JUST A PAINT, BUT IT'S, AND I, IT WILL BE A LITTLE BIT BRIGHT, BUT IT'S NOT VERY EXTREMELY BRIGHT, BUT IT'S JUST STAFF WANTING TO JUST BRING THE TRUE ATTENTION AS THOSE ARE NON-TYPICAL.

ONE LAST THING IS ON THE CANOPY.

UM, THEY DO HAVE ALSO THE BAND ALL AROUND THE ENTIRE CANOPY JUST PUTTING THE LIGHT AROUND IT.

SO BOUNDARY AROUND IT.

AGAIN, THE APPLICANT THINKS THAT HE PROVIDED PICTURES TO SHOW YOU THAT IT SHOULDN'T BE VERY BRIGHT AGAINST STAFF'S.

JUST WANTED TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

I KNOW IT WAS QUITE LENGTHY, BUT IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF COMMISSIONERS, COMMISSIONERS, COMMISSIONER, UH, CHAPMAN.

HI JUNE.

HELLO.

UM, I WANTED TO KNOW, I THINK IF I RECALL CORRECTLY, THERE WAS A QUICK TRIP THAT WE DID A SIGN, A LARGER SIGN FROM ON THAT OPPOSITE SIDE AT SOME POINT, I THINK IT WAS A FEW, FEW FOUR STICK SOMEWHERE ELSE.

THAT IS ALL THE WAY DOWN ON 20 IN BELTLINE.

SO THAT'S QUITE A DISTANCE AWAY.

WITH CERTAIN STORE REQUIREMENTS.

JUST CHECKING.

THANK YOU COMMISSIONERS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? UH, YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK I ONLY HAD ONE QUESTION, UM, THAT I'M SO GLAD THAT YOU DID ABOUT THE OTHER GAS STATION 'CAUSE I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THAT.

AND I'M ASSUMING THAT THE QUICKTRIP USE THE STANDARD TEMPLATE FOR THEIR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN.

IS THAT WHY RED VAN? THEY KNOW THAT THEY USUALLY, USUALLY HAVE DIFFERENT PROTOTYPES? YES, MA'AM.

AND THEY JUST USUALLY, YOU KNOW, TRY TO MEET, MAKE SMALL CHANGES TO MAKE SURE THEY COMPLY

[00:20:01]

YES MA'AM.

SO HOW MANY QUICK TRIPS DO WE HAVE IN GRAND PRAIRIE? YOU KNOW, I DID NOT, I DO NOT KNOW THE OVERALL COUNT.

UM, I JUST FOCUS ON THIS GENERAL AREA.

WE HAVE QUITE A FEW I IMAGINE.

I BELIEVE SO, YEAH.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? ANY LETTERS OF OPPOSITION OR? WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED A LETTER OF OPPOSITIONS YET.

UM, WE DID POST THE PUBLIC HEARING SIGNS AND SOMETIMES YOU'LL SEE SOME COME IN AFTER PNZ BECAUSE YOU KNOW, PEOPLE WAIT FOR THE PACKET SOMETIMES.

UM, WE DID RECEIVE TWO SUPPORT LETTERS, HOWEVER, ONE WAS FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER, ONE'S FROM THE, UH, REAL ESTATE.

THE, YEAH, THEY'RE SO, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT FROM THE NEIGHBORS.

SO, BUT, BUT ALL TO SAY, I THINK THEY JUST REALLY FEEL THIS IS GONNA BE A VALUABLE SITE FOR THEM FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.

BUT THEY WILL BE HERE.

THEY INTEND TO BE HERE TO PRESENT THEIR ID.

WELL, THANK YOU FOR DOING MY, MY ONLY CONCERN WAS OBVIOUSLY IS LIKE THE ONE DOWN THERE ON LOU 12.

LIKE, JUST MAKE SURE IT'S NOT LIKE DIESEL TRUCKS JUST SITTING THERE FOR ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT.

BUT I MEAN, IT'S JUST A REGULAR GAS STATION.

YEAH, I MEAN I THINK THE NEIGHBORHOOD DOES NEED SOMETHING THAT'S A LITTLE MORE UP TO DATE, SO, YEAH, THAT'S GOOD TO ME.

YEAH, WE CAN DEFINITELY BRING THAT ATTENTION TO THE APPLICANT.

THE APPLICANT NEEDS PRESENT ACTUALLY RIGHT NOW AND HE HAS PREPARED THE PRESENTATIONS WITH THAT.

AND IT'S GONNA BE FACING THE U-HAUL, RIGHT? YES MA'AM.

SO THIS IS THE U-HAUL? YES MA'AM.

SO THE STORE WILL BE FACING THIS WAY? MM-HMM .

COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ.

JUNE.

A LOT OF INFORMATION THERE.

COVER SINCE, UH, GRAND PRIX HAS, UM, OTHER QQ TRIPS, IS THIS A NEW DESIGN FOR THE ILLUMINATED RED LIGHT OR WHY, WHY IS IT BEING BROUGHT UP NOW? I DON'T BELIEVE SO.

I THINK IT'S JUST THAT IT MIGHT BE THAT, YOU KNOW, IT WAS JUST BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION AND I WAS JUST TRYING TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO ALLOW, 'CAUSE I KNOW WHEN WE ARE NEAR NEIGHBORHOOD, OUR BIGGEST CONCERN IS, IS IT GONNA CREATE TOO MUCH? YOU KNOW, LIGHT LIGHTING IS A NOISE TO PEOPLE.

SO I THINK WE JUST WANTED TO RUN IT BY YOU FOR YOUR APPROVAL TO MAKE SURE THAT WHATEVER THEY'RE PRESENTING AS A PHOTO IS OKAY WITH THE CITY COUNCIL AND WITH PNC TO MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS.

SO THAT'S A 24 HOUR, UH, LOCATION PRETTY MUCH THAT I DID NOT, I DID NOT ASK, BUT I'LL HAVE THE APPLICANT ANSWER THAT DURING THE PUBLIC HEARING THAT QUESTION.

WHAT? HE STOOD UP 24 HOURS.

HOURS.

I THINK THAT'S ALL.

COMMISSIONER RAMIREZ, THIS IS YOUR AREA.

SO YOU'VE HAD, WERE YOU GOOD WITH THIS AS LONG AS THE RIGHT, RIGHT.

THE NEXT CASE, UH, IS ITEM 16.

UH, ZONE CHANGE, UH, FOR, UH, ZONE CHANGE 24 0 1 0 0 0 1 FOR HARMONY COURT.

THIS IS BASICALLY A ZONING AMENDMENT.

THE ORIGINAL, UH, PLAN DEVELOPMENT WAS APPROVED BACK IN MARCH OF 2021.

UH, PD FOUR 10 WAS, UH, APPROVED TO ALLOW 2,600 SQUARE FOOT SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DWELLING UNITS.

AND THE AMENDMENT THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING IS FROM 2,600 SQUARE FEET TO 2100 SQUARE FEET.

THAT'S THE CHANGE FROM THE ORIGINAL ZONING.

THE APPLICANT INTENDS TO BUILD 11 BUILDINGS, UH, THAT WOULD BE 23 HOUSING UNITS, WHICH WOULD CONSIST OF 10 DUPLEXES AND ONE TRIPLEX.

THE PROPERTY IS, UH, 2.91 ACRES.

THIS IS THE SITE PLAN FOR THE PROPERTY.

AND AGAIN, THE ONLY CHANGE IS FROM THE 2,600 SQUARE FOOT TO 2100 FOR, UH, TWO UNITS.

SO, AND THESE ARE THE ELEVATIONS DUE TO YOUR LEFT IS THE TRIPLEX ELEVATION, WHICH IS THE FRONT AND REAR.

AND TO YOUR RIGHT IS DUPLEX ELEVATION.

FRONT AND REAR, THEY WILL HAVE, UH, FRONT LOADED TWO CAR GARAGES.

THE APPLICANT'S NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

WE DID, UH, SEND LETTERS TO 21 PROPERTY OWNERS, UH, SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS AND DID NOT RECEIVE ANY OPPOSITION, UH, OR IN SUPPORT.

UH, AND DRC IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL.

COMMISS, ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ONE? COMMISSIONER MADDEN? I, I DIDN'T NOTICE.

UH, DO THEY HAVE SPACE ON A DRIVEWAY AS WELL, OR NO.

TO PARK TO, YES, THEY WILL.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? WHAT IS THIS GONNA BE? ARE THESE GONNA BE APARTMENTS OR TOWNHOUSES OR WHAT? SO THIS IS A A FOR SALE PRODUCT.

FOR SALE FOR SALE.

TOWN HOMES.

WELL, THAT, THAT'S GOOD.

THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

I THINK THAT'S IT.

NO.

ABOUT NO OTHER QUESTIONS.

THAT, THAT CONCLUDES.

I THINK THIS IS THE LAST TIME.

GOOD EVENING, COMMISSIONERS.

SO THIS IS AGENDA ITEM THIRTEENS, TP 2 4 0 1 0 0 0 3.

THIS IS A SITE PLAN FOR A NEW SPECULATIVE WAREHOUSE LOCATED AT 9 0 2 WEST SHADY GROVE ROAD.

IT IS LIGHT INDUSTRIAL.

SO AGAIN, THIS IS ALLOWED BY RIGHT, IT'S ON A COUPLE PARCEL THAT ARE 14.075 ACRES.

SO IT'S A 232,440 SQUARE FOOT WAREHOUSE.

IT IS MEETING ALL OF OUR DENSITY AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS, ALL OF OUR PARKING STANDARDS, AND ALL OF OUR APPENDIX X STANDARDS.

AGAIN, IT'S BEEN NEAR OUR LANDSCAPE STANDARDS AND IT IS REQUIRING A TREE MITIGATION.

THEY HAVE PROVIDED TREE MITIGATION PLAN TO STAFF.

THEY ARE REQUIRED TO MITIGATE, MITIGATE 586 CALIPER INCHES, RESULTING IN 101 HUNDRED $17,200 MITIGATION FEE TO BE PAID.

SO THIS IS THEIR LANDSCAPE PLAN BUILDING ELEVATIONS, THEY'RE PRIMARILY MADE OF CONCRETE TILT WALLS, GOT GLAZING HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL ARTICULATION AND ACCENT LIGHTING, AND PARTICULAR ALONG THEIR TWO PRIMARY FACADES.

SO THESE ARE THEIR WEST AND EASTERN FACADES.

THE APPLICANT'S NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

AND DRC DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL, INCLUDE STAFF PRESENTATION AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS,

[00:35:01]

ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ONE? WONDERFUL JOB.

THEY'RE MEETING OUR SCREENING REQUIREMENTS.

NEXT CASE

[14. STP-23-11-0027 - Site Plan – JPI Great Southwest Parkway (City Council District 4). Site Plan for a multi-family development with 439 units on 31.85 acres. Tract 1D, Memucan Hunt Survey, Abstract No. 758, Tract 1, Samuel T. Brown Survey, Abstract No. 84, and Tract 13, Samuel T. Brown Survey, Abstract No. 1689, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas and Tarrant Counties, zoned PD-448, within Lake Ridge Corridor Overlay, with an approximate address of 4610 S Great Southwest Pkwy]

PLEASE.

ALL RIGHTY.

SO NEXT ITEM IS AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 14 STP 2 3 11 0 0 2 7.

SO THIS IS ANOTHER SITE PLAN REQUEST FOR MULTIFAMILY WITH 439 UNITS.

IT IS LOCATED ON 31.85 ACRES AT THE CORNER OF GREAT SOUTHWEST AND LAKERIDGE IS, SO IT WAS ZONED PD 4 48 BACK IN JANUARY.

SO IT ALREADY HAD AN EXISTING ZONING FOR MULTIFAMILY USES BACK FROM 82.

THEY CAME BACK IN IN JANUARY OF THIS YEAR TO GET A CONCEPT PLAN ADDED SOME BUILDING ELEVATIONS AND SOME CONCEPT LAND OR, UM, CONCEPTUAL LANDSCAPING AS WELL.

SO THAT WAS APPROVED BY COUNCIL EARLIER THIS YEAR.

SO THE BASE ZONING IS MULTIFAMILY.

THIS IS ALLOWED BY WRIGHT.

SO LIKE I SAID, IT'S 439 UNITS IN FIVE BUILDINGS.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN, EVERYTHING IN BLUE ARE THE RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS.

THE ONE IN ORANGE IS GOING TO BE THEIR, UM, UH, CLUBHOUSE THAT THEY'LL BE PROVIDING, AND A POOL WILL BE OVER THERE AS WELL.

SO IT DOES HAVE ACCESS OFF BOTH LAKERIDGE PARKWAY AND GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY.

THEY ARE MEETING OUR DENSITY DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND OUR PARKING REQUIREMENTS.

SO THEY MEETING ALL OF OUR LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENTS, UM, ALONG GREAT SOUTHWEST AND ALONG LAKERIDGE PARKWAY.

THE REAR PROPERTY LINE DOES REQUIRE A SPECIAL EXCEPTION.

IT'S ALL IN THE FLOODPLAIN.

SO NORMALLY IT REQUIRE A TYPE ONE SCREENING FENCE, WHICH WE DO NOT ALLOW IN FLOODPLAINS FOR SAFETY ISSUES.

SO THEY ARE, THEY DO REQUIRE SPECIAL EXCEPTION FOR THAT FOR A TYPE TWO SCREENING FENCE.

THIS IS THE REST OF THEIR LANDSCAPE PLAN.

SO THEY ARE HAVING TO DO TREE MITIGATION.

THEY PROVIDE US A TREE SURVEY.

THEY'RE HAVING TO MITIGATE 1,311 CALIPER INCHES RESULTING IN A TREE MITIGATION FEE OF $266,360.

SO THESE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS TO SAMPLE OF THEM.

I'M SURE YOU SAW IN THE PACKET IT'S, IT WAS ABOUT 14 PAGES, SO I KEPT IT TO JUST A FEW THAT WERE REPRESENTATIVE.

THEY ARE LARGELY CONFORMING WITH THE CON WITH CONCEPTUAL ELEVATIONS THAT WERE APPROVED BY COUNCIL BACK IN JANUARY.

SO IN APPENDIX W THEY ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE AMENITIES FOR TWO OF THREE CATEGORIES.

THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO PROVIDE THEM FOR HIGH QUALITY FEATURES OR DESIGNS AND TECHNOLOGY.

AND THEY ARE MEETING ALL THE PENNIX HEAVY HUMIDITY REQUIREMENTS.

SO APPLICANT'S NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES AT THIS TIME.

AND DRC RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

THAT CONCLUDES STAFF PRESENTATION AND I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.

COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS FOR, UH, GO AHEAD, COMMISSIONER MADDEN, I JUST HAD A QUESTION.

I WAS TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT, WHAT, WHAT WAS THE DEAL WITH THE FENCE? SO TO THE PROPERTY, SO NORMALLY BECAUSE IT'S ZONE SINGLE FAMILY TO THE NORTH AND THE E OR TO THE, THE REAR, ALONG THE REAR PROPERTY LINE, IT WOULD NORMALLY REQUIRE A TYPE ONE MASONRY SCREENING FENCE.

BUT BECAUSE THAT'S ALL FLOODPLAIN, WE DO NOT ALLOW FLOODPLAIN.

AND THAT'S, UH, AND FLOOD.

WE DO NOT ALLOW MASON SCREENING IN A FLOODPLAIN.

AND SO IT DOES REQUIRE A SPECIAL EXCEPTION.

BECAUSE OF THAT ISSUE.

SO WE WOULD NOT ALLOW IT JUST DUE TO FLOODPLAIN RESTRICTIONS.

AND WHAT IS THE TYPE OF FENCE THAT THEN IS USED? IT'S A TYPE TWO.

SO REMIND ME, UH, THAT'S A MAC, OR I'M SORRY, THAT IS A, UH, ROCK IRON WITH MASONRY SCREENING.

SO IT'S GONNA BE THE SAME THING ALONG GREAT SOUTHWEST AND LAKE RIDGE PARKWAY.

UH, COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ? YES, THANK YOU.

BRITTANY.

IF I'M MISTAKEN, THERE'S A PARK TO THE NORTH OF THAT MM-HMM .

ARE THEY GONNA HAVE ANY ACCESS TO THAT THERE, YOU KNOW, TO THE, THERE IS A TRAIL EASEMENT ALONG, UM, LAKE RIDGE PARKWAY, BUT THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE NOT REQUIRED TO CONTINUE THAT TRAIL.

I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH PARKS ABOUT THAT TRAIL, BUT THEY DID LEAVE A TRAIL EASEMENT SO THAT IT CAN EVENTUALLY BE CONNECTED.

OH, THAT'D BE GOOD.

COMMISSIONER COCA? UH, THIS WOULD BE PART OF THE, UH, FRANK MO.

LET'S SEE, WHAT'S THE NAME OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NEAR THERE? UM, THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL THAT WOULD, UH, FEED TO THIS, UM, LOCATION.

SO I DIDN'T LOOK UP THE EXACT SCHOOL.

I DID LOOK UP THE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

THE MAJORITY OF THE PROPERTY WILL BE IN ARLINGTON, ISD.

THERE'S A SMALL PORTION, THE BUILDING FIVE, WHICH I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL CAN STILL SEE ON Y'ALL SCREEN.

IT LOOKS LIKE THAT ONE MIGHT BE DOWN.

YEAH, WE CAN SEE IT ON OUR SCREENS.

SO THIS BUILDING RIGHT HERE? MM-HMM .

TO THE FAR RIGHT? YES.

THAT ONE LOOKS LIKE IT'S IN GRAND PRAIRIE.

ISD.

THE REST OF 'EM WOULD ALL BE IN ARLINGTON.

SD I'M NOT SURE HOW IT WORKS WHEN THE, THE BOUNDARY'S BIFURCATING, UM, A PROPERTY, BUT THAT'S WHERE THE LINE IS ANYWAYS.

IT'S APPROXIMATELY RIGHT AROUND HERE.

SO THE MAJORITY OF IT'S IN A ARLINGTON ISD.

ABOUT, YOU KNOW, IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE WHAT WE WANTED IN GRAND PRAIRIE.

MY, MY ONLY CONCERN WAS MAKING SURE OF THAT THE, UH, NEW, UH, DRAWINGS FIT WHAT CITY COUNCIL WANTED.

'CAUSE EVERYBODY WAS PRETTY UPSET

[00:40:01]

SO IS THE, IS THE APPLICANT HERE THERE, IS THERE IS A REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE APPLICANT HERE? YES.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU BRITTANY.

ANY SPEAKER CARDS? NO.

WE HAVE RYAN DOWER AVAILABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AS THE CASE SPOKESMAN.

SIR, COME ON UP.

HOW ARE YOU? GOOD.

HOW Y'ALL STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD PLEASE? YES, MY NAME IS RYAN DOWER.

MY ADDRESS IS 9,001 CYPRESS WATERS BOULEVARD IN DALLAS, TEXAS.

UH, THANK YOU FOR COMING.

AND UM, LIKE I SAID, THE MAIN CONCERN THAT I HAD WAS THE FACT THAT WHEN THIS WAS ORIGINALLY PRESENTED, THERE WAS CONCERN ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE, YOU KNOW MM-HMM .

THE FINAL PRODUCT.

SO CAN YOU GO INTO A LITTLE BIT OF THAT ABOUT WHAT YOUR, WHAT CHANGES YOU MADE? YEAH, SO WE DID ADD SOME, WE CHANGED UP THE CORNERS OF THE MAIN BUILDING IN A COUPLE OF THE MAIN, UH, FOCAL PLOT, FOCAL POINTS OF THE BUILDINGS FACING, UH, SOUTHWEST PARKWAY AND LINKAGE PARKWAY.

UM, WE DID UPGRADE TO MASONRY, ADD A LITTLE BIT OF GLAZING, UM, BUT THOSE WERE SOME OF THE MAIN CHANGES THAT WE MADE.

WE DIDN'T REALLY CHANGE ANY OF THE BUILDING DIMENSIONS AS FAR AS WHAT UNITS WERE ENCOMPASSED WITHIN EACH BUILDING.

IS MOSTLY JUST MATERIAL CHANGES.

AND DID YOU HAVE ANY CONVERSATIONS WITH THE CITY COUNCILMAN JOHN? UH, COMMISSIONER, I MEAN, COUNCILMAN LOPEZ WITH REGARD TO THAT? I'M, I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THAT.

I WAS NOT A PART OF THOSE, UH, DISCUSSIONS.

MY LAND ACT TEAM WAS THE TEAM LEADING GROUP.

COMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I THINK, UH, I GUESS THAT'S IT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION WITH REGARD TO THIS ITEM? THIS IS IN MY AREA AND THAT'S WHY I WAS ASKING SO MANY QUESTIONS.

AND I DID TALK TO COUNCILMAN UH, LOPEZ WITH REGARD TO THAT AND THAT WAS A CONCERN THAT HE AND CITY COUNCIL HAD TO MAKE SURE THIS PRODUCT WOULD BE SOMETHING WE'D BE PROUD OF.

AND, UH, FROM WHAT I SAW, IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK.

SO IS ANY OTHER FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? JUST A COMMENT.

UM, IT LOOKS LIKE PROBABLY THE ELEMENTARY SIDE WOULD BE GOING TO, UM, MIKE MOSTLY ELEMENTARY, POSSIBLY.

AND, AND I'M HAPPY BECAUSE MOSTLY HE DOES HAVE GOOD CAPACITY FOR MORE STUDENTS.

SO I'M HAPPY FOR THAT LITTLE PART 'CAUSE THE ELEMENTARY KIDS WILL BE ABLE TO ATTEND.

MIKE MOSTLY ELEMENTARY.

THANK YOU FOR THAT, COMMISSIONER.

I APPRECIATE THAT.

UH, THAT BEING SAID, I'LL DO THIS MOTION UNLESS SOMEBODY WANTS TO DO IT FOR ME.

UM, I'D LIKE TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEM 14 STP 2 3 1 1 0 0 2 7 AND APPROVE AS PER DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

SECOND.

I HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MYSELF, CHERYL SMITH TO APPROVE ITEM 14 STP 23 1 1 0 2 7 BY MYSELF.

AND A SECOND MOTION BY COMMISSIONER COCA.

I'LL COVER THE VARIANCES MORE IN DETAIL A LITTLE BIT LATER.

[15. SUP-23-10-0043 - Specific Use Permit/Site Plan - Quik Trip at 901 Macarthur (City Council District 5). Specific Use Permit/Site Plan for a convenience store with gas sales on 2.04 acres. A portion of Tract 20, Joseph Graham Survey, Abstract No. 506, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, zoned Commercial (C) District, within the IH-30 Corridor Overlay, and tentatively addressed as 901 Macarthur Blvd]

CASE PLEASE.

GOOD EVENING.

THE ITEM NUMBER 15 IS SUP DASH 23 DASH 10 0 0 4 3.

THIS IS A SUP AND SITE PLAN FOR QUICKTRIP.

UH, THEY'RE PROPOSING A NEW LOCATION ON NINE OH, UH, 9 0 1 MACARTHUR BOULEVARD.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE LOCATION MAP, THE PROPOSED SITE IS GENERALLY LOCATED IN THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF MACARTHUR AND I 30.

THE APPLICANT WOULD LIKE TO CONSTRUCT A UH, 5,300 SQUARE FOOT CONVENIENCE STORE WITH, UH, 10 UH, GAS PUMPS.

SO THIS IS KIND OF AN AERIAL VIEW, UM, TO THE NORTH, TO THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER.

THEY ARE PROPOSING A CONVENIENCE STORE BUILDING AND A CANOPY KIND OF PARALLEL TO MACARTHUR.

SO I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT THESE, UM, VACANT LOTS ARE FOR COMMERCIAL USES.

THEY DO HAVE SOME ESTABLISHED NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND THERE, BUT IMMEDIATELY, UH, ADJACENT OR ACROSS FROM THE PROPERTIES ARE CURRENTLY USED BY NON-RESIDENTIAL USERS.

SO THEY ARE, UM, SHOWING THE 10 CANOPY ALONG THE MACARTHUR.

AGAIN, THIS IS TO THE NORTH.

THEY HAVE A STORE WITH THE MAIN ENTRANCES FACING MACARTHUR.

THEY ARE PROVIDING 10 FUEL CANOPIES.

THEY'RE MEETING THE DENSITY AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENT.

THEY ARE REQUESTING OF A PARKING VARIANCE.

SO APPENDIX F HAS A PARKING MAXIMUM WHICH CAPS THEIR PARKING AT 20.

THEY HAVE REQUESTED VARIANCE AND ALSO PROVIDED COMPENSATORY MEASURE AS REQUIRED BY THE APPENDIX F.

THEY'RE PROVIDING PERMEABLE PARKING TO, UM, AS A COMP TO MEASURE FOR THE REQUEST FOR THE VARIANCE.

THEY ARE EITHER MEETING OR EXCEEDING THE LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENT.

AS SHOWN THEY'LL BE PROVIDING A NUMBER OF TREES ALONG BOTH STREET FRONTS AS SHOWN.

SO THEY ARE GENERALLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPENDIX, UM, F STANDARD FOR BUILDING ELEVATIONS WITH EXCEPTION FOUR ONE VARIANCE FOR OVERALL WINDOW PERCENTAGES.

HOWEVER, THEY ARE PROVIDING A, UH, BRICK FINISHES WITH A STONE ACCENT.

THEY ARE PROVIDING CANOPIES AND WINDOWS.

[00:45:01]

THE FUEL CANOPY DOES HAVE THE BRICK COLUMN REP, WHICH IS TYPICALLY EXPECTED IN THE APPENDIX F UM, OVERLAY AREA.

THEY ARE PROVIDING 14 APPENDIX F MENU ITEMS AS SHOWN.

SO HERE'S A QUICK ANALYSIS OF THE LOCATION, UM, IN COMPARISON WITH ALL THE OTHER EXISTING LOCATIONS.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE CL IN THE CENTER IS THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WITHIN THE BLUE, WHICH IS REPRESENTS THE ONE MILE RADIUS.

THEY HAVE ONLY WON ANOTHER UH, GAS SALES LOCATION.

UM, THIS IS A SMALL NEIGHBORHOOD SCALE CONVENIENCE STORE WITH TWO GAS PUMPS.

HOWEVER, THEY DO HAVE, UH, QUITE A BIT OF EXISTING, UM, FUEL STATIONS AND CONVENIENCE STORES WITHIN THEIR TWO MILE, ESPECIALLY TOWARD THE WEST, ALONG THE BELTLINE AND I 30.

AND AS RESIDENTS YOU PROBABLY DROVE THEM THROUGH THERE AND NOTICED THAT THERE'S A LOT OF THEM ALONG THAT STREET FRONT.

ONE THING I DID WANNA POINT OUT IS THAT, UH, FROM THIS LOCATION FOR THE FOUR MILES, UM, DISTANCE ALONG I 30, I DID NOT FIND ANY OTHER GAS STATIONS CURRENTLY PRESENT WHERE THEY'RE LOCATING IT IS ABOUT A HALFWAY TO THE CITY'S LIMITS.

I DID WANNA POINT OUT THAT THERE IS ANOTHER QUICK TRIP SLIGHTLY OUTSIDE OF OUR CITY LIMITS THAT'S ABOUT TWO AND A HALF MILES AWAY.

ALL THIS INFORMATION IS JUST TO HELP YOU DECIDE IF THIS IS A GOOD LOCATION FOR THIS PRO, UH, PROJECT OR NOT.

UM, AGAIN, UM, THEY ARE REQUESTING TWO VARIANCES.

ONE, WE COVER THE PARKING SPACES.

THIS IS FAIRLY TYPICAL CONSIDERING THAT THE QUICK TRIP USUALLY HAS LARGE, UM, NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS IN THE MORNING WHO ARE TRYING TO BUY FOOD ITEMS FROM THE STORE.

STAFF DOES NOT HAVE ANY CONCERNS FOR THAT.

SO OVERALL WINDOWS, UM, APPENDIX F REQUIRE THAT YOU PROVIDE 50% EITHER OF THE LENGTH OR THE AREA TO BE, UM, COVERED WITH THE WINDOWS.

A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE WILL GO WITH THE LENGTH BECAUSE THAT'S A LITTLE BIT EASIER TO COMPLY WITH 'CAUSE THEY CAN HAVE A SMALL, VERY THIN NARROW WINDOWS.

UM, HOWEVER, THEY JUST WENT WITH THE PROVIDING MORE WINDOWS ON THE STOREFRONT.

SO, UM, THEY'RE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE 30% OF GLAZING ON THEIR PRIMARY FACADE.

THEY HAVE A FACADE THAT'S FACING MACARTHUR AND THE ONE THAT'S FACING I 30.

ON I 30, THEY PROVIDED 42%, WHICH IS THE 30% BY 12% AND THEY PROVIDED 60% ON MACARTHUR ELEVATION, WHICH EXCEED, WHICH ACTUALLY DOUBLES THE REQUIREMENT OF 30%.

SO OVERALL THEY'RE RIGHT AT 39 OR 40%, WHICH IS SLIGHTLY SMALLER THAN THE 50.

HOWEVER, STAFF FEELS THAT THEY HAVE, UM, TRIED TO MEET THE INTENT OF HAVING A LOT OF GLAZING FOR WELCOMING AND HAVING MORE CURB APPEAL TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC STAFF DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH THIS VARIANCE REQUEST.

AGAIN, THERE ARE SOME, UH, RECOMMENDATIONS, UM, THAT WE ARE ASKING FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION TO HAVE SOME CONDITIONS OVER THIS RECOMMENDATION FOR APPROVAL.

THE FIRST IS, UM, ASSOCIATED WITH THE BUILDING MATERIAL.

THE NUMBER TWO AND THREE ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE LIGHTING TO HIGHLIGHT THE BUILDING AND THE CANOPY.

THE FOUR AND FIVE IS RELATED TO MORE OF A AIR QUALITY ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS.

THE FIRST IS THAT THEY ARE PROPOSING A CORNICE ON TOP OF THE BUILDING AS SHOWN TO BE ALUMINUM.

UM, STEP HAS GENERALLY SEEN A LOT OF, UH, BUILDINGS IN APPENDIX F USING MORE OF A EFI OR STUCCO OR THESE CORNICES, WHICH JUST WANTED TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION TO SEE IF YOU WOULD BE OKAY WITH THEM GOING WITH THEIR, UH, PROTOTYPE OF ALUMINUM, UH, CANOPY.

THE SECOND IS THAT THEY WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THE BUILDING OR UH, THE CANOPY WITH THE LED BAND RIGHT HERE AS SHOWN ALONG THE ENTRANCES PROPERLY FOR AT THE NIGHTTIME SO THAT THE CUSTOMERS KNOW, UH, WHERE TO ENTER FROM THE BUILDING.

ALSO, ANOTHER THING IS THEY WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT AROUND THE CANOPY WITH THE RED BAND OF INTERNALLY LIT ILLUMINATION.

AGAIN, STAFF JUST WANTED TO MAKE A RECOMMENDATION NOT TO ALLOW THEM THE, THE NUMBER TWO AND THREE COVERS THE BUILDING AND THE CANOPY NUMBER FOUR AND FIVE, IT'S FOR, UH, AIR QUALITY CONCERNS.

UM, TRUCK IDLING WITHIN 300 FEET OF RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE TRAIL WILL BE LIMITED TO A PERIOD OF TIME, NOT EXCEED 15 MINUTES.

THIS IS FAIRLY TYPICAL OF ANY UH, LARGE GAS STATIONS OR ANY OTHER UM, USES THAT ARE UM, ASSOCIATED WITH HEAVY TRUCKS.

AND THEY SHALL POST NO IDLING SIGN ON SITE.

AGAIN, THIS IS FOR THE AIR QUALITY GOALS.

UM, THIS CONCLUDES STAFF PRESENTATION.

DO YOU HAVE ANY, UH, QUESTION FOR STEP? THE APPLICANT IS HERE AND HAS PREPARED A PRESENTATION FOR YOU.

YES, COMMISSIONER.

COMMISSIONER MADWELL.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

SO, UM, A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

I SAW TWO MONUMENT SIGNS THAT LOOKED LIKE THEY'RE PROBABLY PRETTY LOW TO THE GROUND, UM, ON MACARTHUR AND ON THE ACCESS ROAD TO 30, BUT ARE THEY HAVING TALL SIGNAGE ANYWHERE? SO SIGNAGE WAS NOT PART OF THIS SUP PACKAGE PACKAGE LIST, BUT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE EXISTING UH, THE BILLBOARD SIGN? 'CAUSE I THINK THEY PLAN TO REMOVE THAT 'CAUSE THAT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SITE.

NO, NO, I WAS LOOKING AT THE PLANS AND

[00:50:01]

SAW THEIR MONUMENT SIGNS BOTH ON THE ACCESS ROAD.

BUT SO YEAH, SO THEY HAVE SOME SIGN, UH, SIGNAGE THAT SAYS THEY'LL REMOVE IT.

MY UNDERSTANDING IS THEY PLAN TO PROPOSE THEIR OWN, UM, SIGNAGE AT THIS CORNER.

BUT WE CAN CONFIRM THAT WITH THE APPLICANT.

AND THEN, UM, HAVE THEY, HAVE YOU TALKED TO THEM ABOUT THAT UH, ELIMINATION OF THE LED ON THE BUILDING? YES.

SO THE APPLICANT HAS PROVIDED SOME PHOTOS FOR YOU TO CONSIDER.

'CAUSE THEY SAID, WELL IF YOU LOOK AT THE PHOTOS IT MIGHT NOT LOOK AS BRIGHT AS THE STAFF MAY, UM, BE CONCERNED WITH UHHUH .

SO BECAUSE STAFF WE WEREN'T SURE HOW BRIGHT IT WILL BE.

SO WE JUST WANTED TO UM, HAVE THAT BE A UNKNOWN WHEN YOU MAKE THE FINAL DECISION TO SEE IF YOU ARE OKAY WITH WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING.

AGAIN, UH, THE APPLICANT HAS TOOK SOME PHOTOS OF EXISTING STORE SO YOU GUYS CAN GET A BETTER FEEL OF HOW IT WILL LOOK DURING THE NIGHT.

UM, YEAH, 'CAUSE I WAS THINKING THEY MAY WANT THAT LED BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T HAVE A BIG SIGN, THEY NEED SOMETHING TO INDICATE THEY'RE THERE.

SO.

YES, MA'AM.

UM, OTHER QUESTION MM-HMM AND MAYBE I JUST MISSED IT, BUT WHY ARE WE SUGGESTING NOT A METAL CORNICE? SO AGAIN, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY UP TO YOUR DECISION, BUT AGAIN, A LOT OF APPENDIX STANDARD, WE ARE SHOOTING FOR MORE OF A HUNDRED PERCENT MAC SCREEN.

SO THIS IS A DIFFERENT TYPE OF GAS STATION USES.

WE HAVE A SPECIFIC LANGUAGE IN, UH, APPENDIX F THAT UM, PEOPLE MAY USE EVIS E IS TYPICALLY NOT ALLOWED IN THE BUILDING FACADE, BUT SINCE IT'S ON THE TOP AND IT'S A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER OR EASIER TO CONSTRUCT, TYPICALLY IF IT SOURCE STUCCO IS USED A LOT OF TIMES ON THE CORNICES.

AGAIN, UM, THIS IS NOT TYPICAL ATYPICAL, WE JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU GUYS CLEARLY COMMUNICATE AND UNDERSTAND THIS IS WHAT WE'RE APPROVING.

BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT THERE TO BE ANY SURPRISES THINKING, OH YEAH, THIS IS GOTTA BE ALL MASON BUILDING AND THEN WHEN IT'S CONSTRUCTED WE'RE LIKE, I NEVER SAW THE ALUMINUM.

WHY IS THERE A MIDDLE? SO AGAIN, IT MIGHT NOT BE AS NOTICEABLE.

UM, THE APPLICANT TOOK SOME PICTURE OF IT, YOU CAN LOOK AT IT AND YOU MIGHT RECOGNIZE, OKAY, I'VE SEEN THAT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD OR NOT, YOU KNOW, BUT I'LL JUST LEAVE THAT UP TO THE APPLICANT TO EXPLAIN ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM ANY OTHER MEMBERS.

COMMISSIONERS? I JUST HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

DID YOU FIND OUT WHETHER IT WAS A 24 HOUR, UH, STORE OR NOT? I HAVE NOT, BUT THE APPLICANT IS AWARE OF THAT QUESTION.

YES, MA'AM.

THAT, THAT WAS THE QUESTION.

AND THEN YES MA'AM.

I, I THINK THAT, UH, THE REASON WHEN WE HAD THE BOARD BRIEFING WAS DONE VERY WELL.

I MEAN, SHE WENT INTO, SHE WENT INTO A LOT OF DETAIL, BUT I BELIEVE THIS IS THE QT IS A TEMPLATE OF PRETTY MUCH WHAT THEY DO THERE.

STANDARD.

SO THIS IS PROBABLY A STANDARD ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN WITH REGARD TO THE, I WILL SAY SO, YES MA'AM.

YES MA'AM.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU, JIM.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

SPEAKER CARDS PLEASE, MA'AM.

OH, I'M SORRY.

YOU? YEAH, WE'RE STILL ABOUT TO DO THAT.

WE HAVE ROBERT CABLE, .

THANK YOU FOR THAT.

COMMISSIONER MATTON, I DID HAVE ONE QUESTION.

SO YOU OWN THE PROPERTY THAT'S

[00:55:01]

TO THE SOUTH OF IT TOO.

THAT'S NOT BEING USED.

THAT'S TO THE SOUTH OF THE GAS STATION AWAY FROM I 30.

NO, JUDGE.

THERE'S AN 11 IF YOU SAW THE TRACK WHERE THEY SHOW THE QUICK TRIP.

I OWN THAT WHOLE 11 ACRE TRACK RIGHT THERE.

HE OWNS THE WHOLE PARCEL.

QUIKTRIP IS 1.8 ACRES.

THAT'S WHAT I, YEAH, IT'S AN 11 ACRE PARCEL.

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I WAS ASKING.

SO THERE'S ANOTHER NINE ACRES FOR DEVELOPMENT.

AND I NOTICED THAT THEY, THEY WERE DESIGNING THE PARKING LOT TO FLOW INTO THAT OTHER PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT'S NOT THEIRS.

DO YOU ALREADY, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT'S GONNA BE THERE OR NOT YET? OH, NOT YET.

THE ONLY PLANS I HAVE ARE REALLY FOR THE OPPOSITE CORNER OPPOSITE RIGHT NOW, OPPOSITE SIDE ON THE NORTH SIDE THERE SIDE.

UH, CRAIG HONEYWELL, 4 5 8.

EIGHT MOUNTAIN LAUREL DRIVE.

GRAND PRAIRIE, TEXAS.

PERSPECTIVE, UM, ALLOWING US TO KEEP THE CORNICE IN ALUMINUM ILLUMINATED BAND WOULD, WOULD GET YOU THIS STORE.

UM, SO I WILL KEEP THIS RELATIVELY SHORT AND SIMPLE.

UM, AS YOU CAN SEE THE, THE CURRENT CONDITIONS, I THINK STEPH'S GONE THROUGH A LOT OF THIS ALREADY.

UH, SO I'LL SKIP RIGHT THROUGH ANY OF THAT.

UH, TO DISCUSS THE VARIANCES.

AS, AS SHE SAID, WE ARE SEEKING A VARIANCE FOR OUR PARKING.

UM, WE DO HAVE A, A HIGH CUSTOMER VOLUME COUNT.

WE ALSO, AT TIMES WE'LL HAVE UPWARDS OF 12 EMPLOYEES IN OUR STORES AT AT A TIME.

SO WE, THE AMPLE PARKING IS, IS KIND OF FOR THAT.

UH, THIS WILL BE UNIQUE.

IT'LL BE OUR FIRST PERIAL BEHA IN THE CITY OF, WELL, ALL OF THE DFW METROPLEX.

UH, SO PRETTY EXCITED THAT WE WERE ABLE TO DO THAT ON THIS SITE FOR YOU GUYS AS WELL.

UM, AS WELL AS WE DID TRY TO, YOU KNOW, MAKE SURE WE WEREN'T ASKING FOR PARKING AND TAKING AWAY LANDSCAPING.

AS YOU CAN SEE, WE HAVE, UM, WELL OVER DOUBLE THE REQUIRED FRONT YARD LANDSCAPING AND LANDSCAPING IN GENERAL.

UM, OUR SITE PLAN AGAIN, BUT STAFF'S ALREADY SHARED THAT, UH, WITH THE LANDSCAPE PLAN AND FOR THE BUILDING VARIANCES.

WE, WE DO HAVE, UM, WE'RE ASKING FOR THE GLAZING AS STAFF MENTIONED.

IT IS REAL, REALLY JUST BECAUSE OF THE REAR OF THE BUILDING, UM, WHERE OUR POWER EQUIPMENT IS, ALL OF OUR COOLER EQUIPMENT AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

UH, WE HAVE TRIED TO GO AHEAD AND GO ABOVE AND BEYOND ON THE GLAZING ON THE OTHER SIDES.

UM, AND THEN WE ARE ASKING FOR A COUPLE OF THE, UM, RECOMMENDATIONS TO BE REMOVED, IF YOU WILL.

UH, PRIMARILY THE RED BAND.

WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT ILLUMINATED AS WELL AS THE, YOU KNOW, ALUMINUM CORNICE.

UM, I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS UNTIL THE PACKET WAS POSTED, AND IN PREPARATION I DID NOT CATCH THE CORNICE ONE, SO I'LL TRY TO EXPLAIN THAT ONE A LITTLE BIT MORE.

BUT I DO HAVE A DEPICTION OF HOW WE ILLUMINATE OUR RED BAND HERE.

IT IS A BACKLIT WITH A RED LED.

WE USE RED LEDS SO WE DON'T HAVE THE BRIGHT SPOTS OF THE WHITE.

UM, AND THEN THERE'S A RED PANEL OVER IT, WHICH REALLY LIMITS THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT TO GO THROUGH THERE.

UH, THE OUTPUT IS, IS RELATIVELY LOW.

UH, WAS ACTUALLY UNABLE TO GET LIKE A FOOT CANDLE READING ON IT, UH, BECAUSE IT IS SO RESTRICTED.

UM, BUT I DO HAVE A COUPLE PICTURES OF VERY SIMILAR STORES.

UM, AND CANOPY, YOU KNOW, TAKEN AT NIGHT.

THERE'S JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A GLOW THERE.

IF YOU ALL ARE FAMILIAR WITH OUR STORE AT, UH, 20 AND SORRY 30 IN BELTLINE OR OUR STORE AT 20 IN LAKE RIDGE.

UM, I'VE GONE BACK AND LOOKED AT THE DATES THOSE STORES WERE BUILT, UM, AS WELL AS THE ONE AT 1 61 IN MAINE.

ALL OF THOSE STORES WERE BUILT 2015 OR 2016, AND WE WERE USING THE SAME LINING SPECS AT THAT TIME.

SO IT'LL BE THE EXACT SAME LIGHT LEVELS AS YOU COULD PREDICT, EXPECT.

UM, AS FAR AS THE CORNICE, UM, I MET WITH OUR CONSTRUCTION GROUP TODAY AND WE WERE ABLE TO FIND ONE OF OUR OVER A THOUSAND STORES THAT HAS, UM, A, AN EFIS CORNICE.

AND THAT STORE HAS BEEN A CONTINUAL PROBLEM FOR US.

UH, THE ALUMINUM IS, UM, ONE, IT IS KIND OF BRANDING FOR US.

WE, WE DO REALLY HOPE YOU'LL ALLOW US TO HAVE THAT.

UM, ALSO IT IS GOING TO BE THE SAME ALUMINUM CORNICE AS WE HAVE AT THE THREE OTHER STORES.

I, I RECENTLY MENTIONED, UH, THIS WOULD BECOME OUR EIGHTH STORE.

WE HAVE SIX OPEN IN GRAND PRAIRIE WITH ONE A 20 IN BELT LINE THAT WAS RECENTLY APPROVED, UH, BY YOU ALL AND CITY COUNCIL.

UM, LOOKING AT THAT STORE'S APPROVAL, UH, WE WERE NOT ABLE TO SEE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR LIMITING THE, THE CORNICE OR THE, UM, RED BAND ILLUMINATION ON THAT ONE.

UH, ONE THING I WOULD POINT OUT IS THE ALUMINUM CORNES AT THE STORE AT 20 IN LAKERIDGE.

OUR HIGH RISE SIGN AT THAT ONE ACTUALLY HAS THE ALUMINUM CORNES ADDED TO THE TOP OF THAT AND LOOKS REALLY SHARP COMING DOWN I 20 OR COMING OFF OF 1 61.

UH, SO THAT IS SOMETHING WE WOULD, WE WOULD LIKE TO KEEP, TO KEEP OUR CONSISTENCY IN THE CITY OF GRAND PRAIRIE.

UM, HERE'S JUST ANOTHER

[01:00:01]

UM, CHAIRPERSON SMITH, I BELIEVE YOU'VE ASKED IF THIS IS A VERY PROTOTYPICAL BUILDING, UM, FOR US IT IS, IT IS VERY PROTOTYPICAL.

THAT SAID, THE ONLY OTHER ONE LIKE THAT IN GRAND PRAIRIE WOULD BE THE OTHER ONE RECENTLY, UH, APPROVED.

THE ADDITIONAL GLAZING WE'VE DONE ON THIS BUILDING IS NOT SOMETHING WE DO ON MOST OF OUR SITES.

UM, WE'VE BASED A LOT OF THE CHOICES ON THIS BUILDING BASED ON THE PREVIOUS APPROVAL OF THE ONE AT 20 AND BELTLINE.

AND SO THERE WILL BE A VERY SIMILAR FIELD THERE, BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO ANY OF OUR NEWER STORES THAT JUST FINISHED CONSTRUCTION IN FORT WORTH OR IN DALLAS, YOU WON'T SEE THAT SAME LEVEL OF AR ARCHITECTURE FOR THOSE SITES.

UM, PICTURES OF, OF THE CANOPY.

UM, AGAIN, WE'RE CARRYING THE BRICK THROUGH THERE AS AND THE STONE THROUGH THERE AS WELL.

UM, OTHER THAN THAT, I'M HAPPY TO BE FE TO FIELD.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I KNOW, UH, CHAIRPERSON RAMIREZ, YOU HAD MENTIONED THE TRUCKS.

UH, THIS IS NOT A FUEL STOP OR A TRUCK DIESEL OFFER FOR US.

THIS IS A STRICTLY AUTO AUTOMOTIVE CANOPY BIGGEST.

SO YEAH, I'M, I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH THAT ONE.

AND, AND THIS IS, YOU KNOW, MORE OF OUR STANDARD ONE.

IT IS GONNA BE VERY SIMILAR TO THE, THE STORES YOU YOU'VE SEEN IN THE CITY OF GRAND PRAIRIE PROPER.

SO ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THIS CONDITIONED? I HAD A COUPLE OF COMMENTS, SO I WOULD AGREE.

I THINK THE EFIS IS PROBABLY A BAD IDEA AND FROM A MAINTENANCE STANDPOINT, I WOULD THINK THAT THE ALUMINUM OR WHATEVER MATERIALS THAT YOU'VE SHOWN IS PROBABLY PREFERABLE.

UM, SO I'M WITH YOU.

AND I AGREE ALSO KIND OF SPEAKING TO THE, TO THE COMMISSION AS WELL, THAT THE LED BANDS JUST IN MY EXPERIENCE, HAVEN'T BEEN BRIGHT ENOUGH TO BE A DISTURBANCE TO ANYBODY.

UM, SO ANYWAY, I JUST WANNA SAY TOO, YOUR PRODUCT, IF I'M CROSS COUNTRY TRAVELING, I WILL ALWAYS LOOK FOR A QT TO STOP IN.

I ALWAYS FEEL SAFE.

IT'S CLEAN AND GREAT, SO THANK YOU.

THANKS FOR THAT.

COMMISSIONER COMMENTS, ANY OTHER COMMENTS? I THINK THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT.

THANK YOU ALL.

ANY, UH, ANY OTHER FURTHER DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS? SO COMMISSIONERS, IF YOU WANT TO REMOVE THE EFIS AND THE BAND OH YEAH.

PLEASE REMOVE THEM FROM YOUR MOTIONS.

I APPRECIATE IT.

COMMISSIONER RAMIREZ, WHAT'S THE, IT'S ITEM NUMBER? UH, 16.

UH, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE, UH, SUP DASH 23 DASH ONE ZERO DASH 0 0 4 3 WITH DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

OH, CLICK WASN'T SUPPOSED TO.

IT'S ON THE SCREEN TOO.

OH, IT'S ON THE SCREEN? YES.

YEAH, IT'S ONE, TWO, AND THREE.

SO IF YOU MAKE A MOTION WITH THE CONDITION ONLY FOUR AND FIVE, I THINK THEY'LL SIMPLIFY IT.

TIME.

THAT, THAT SOUNDS BETTER.

SO APPROVE THE VARIANCES AND ONLY FOUR AND FIVE FOR THE DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

SECOND BY COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN.

GOOD.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND ON THAT? SECOND.

SECOND.

WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEM 15 BY COMMISSIONER RAMIREZ AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER, UH, PEREZ.

UH, AS PER, UH, THE RECOMMENDED FOUR AND FIVE OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS.

THAT THEY HAD FOR EACH LOT AND THE SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR THE UNITS.

[16. ZON-24-01-0001 - Zoning Change/Concept Plan - Polo SFA Amendment (City Council District 6). PD Amendment (PD-410) to allow 2,100 sq. ft. Single Family Attached units on 2.909 acres. Tract 11.3, Thomas J. Tone Survey, Abstract No. 1460, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned PD-410 and approximated addresses of 4529-4554 Harmony Ct]

LAST ITEM, PLEASE.

MR. ABDUL? YES, MA'AM.

CHAIR, WE HAVE THE LAST ITEM IS, UH, ZERO N 24 0 1 0 0 0 1.

UH, THIS IS A ZONE CHANGE, UH, SLASH CONCEPT PLAN AMENDMENT.

UH, CURRENTLY THE PROPERTY ZONE PLAN DEVELOPMENT FOUR 10.

THIS WAS APPROVED IN MARCH OF 2021, AND THE APPROVED PD REQUIRED THE SQUARE FOOTAGE FOR THE TOWN HOMES TO BE 2,600 SQUARE FEET.

AND THE APPLICANT'S REQUESTING FROM 2,600 TO 2100 SQUARE FEET, THE APPLICANT INTENDS TO BUILD 11 BUILDINGS, 23 HOUSING UNITS IN TOTAL, UH, WHICH WOULD BE IN 10 DUPLEX CONFIGURATION AND ONE TRIPLEX CONFIGURATION, UH, ON 2.91 ACRES.

THIS IS THE SITE PLAN.

AGAIN, THE ONLY CHANGE IS FROM 2,600 SQUARE FEET TO 2100 SQUARE FEET.

THESE ARE THE ELEVATIONS.

MOSTLY, UH, IT WOULD CONSIST OF STONE AND BRICK FOR THE TRIPLEX AND THE DUPLEX, UH, CONFIGURATIONS.

THE APPLICANT IS NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

WE DID, UH, SEND 21 LETTERS TO SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS AND DID NOT RECEIVE ANY IN OPPOSITION OR IN SUPPORT.

UH, DRC IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL.

AND, UH, THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? CAN YOU JUST RE BRIEF US AS TO WHY THEY WENT FROM THE 26TH TO THE 2100? SO I BELIEVE THAT WHEN THE ARCHITECT, UH, HAD THE SITE PLAN DRAWN UP MM-HMM .

THEY DID NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE

[01:05:01]

AND THAT'S WHY WHEN THEY'RE, THEY WERE CLOSER TO THE BUILDING PERMITTING PROCESS, THAT'S WHEN THEY CAUGHT IT AND THEY'RE ASKING TO OR REQUESTING TO AMEND THAT.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

YOU GET CLOSER TO THOSE CIVILS, THEY START FLESHING THEM OUT.

THEMSELVES OUT.

SO THAT'S ALL THEY HAPPENED.

VERY GOOD.

THAT'S VERY GOOD ANSWER ON THAT.

I WAS THINKING, FIRST THING I THOUGHT ABOUT WAS TO REDUCE THE SIZE AND, AND CHARGE MORE , YOU KNOW, THAT PRICE WILL REMAIN THE SAME PROBABLY.

COMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER, UH, QUESTIONS? ABDUL? THANK YOU.

DO YOU HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS? WE HAVE OLA BONO WHO IS THE SPOKESPERSON FOR THE CASE.

HELLO SIR, HOW ARE YOU? STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING OUR PROJECT.

UM, I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THE 2,600 WAS, IS NOT THE MINIMUM REQUIRED FOR SFA FOR THE ZONING AND BUILDING TYPE.

THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT IS 1200.

WE WERE THE ONE THAT HAD THIS AMBITION OF PROVIDING 2,600 HOUSING UNIT.

THE 2,600 CAME FROM US.

I PROMISED MY CLIENT TO GIVE HIM A 2,600 HOUSING UNIT MM-HMM .

BUT BY THE TIME WE WENT THROUGH THE RIGOROUS ENGINEERING REVIEW, , IN FACT WE WANTED TO DO 27.

OH WOW.

WE ENDED UP WITH 23 MM-HMM .

AND WE, WE WERE CAUGHT TO SIZE BY THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT MM-HMM .

BECAUSE WE HAD TO LET GO OF ABOUT 10% OR SO OF OUR PROPERTY.

FOR, UH, A LOT OF ENGINEERING STUFF.

SO, SO WE ENDED UP WITH 23 MM-HMM .

AND THEN WE, WE HAVE THREE DIFFERENT, THREE BUILDING TYPES OF THE PROJECT.

SO THE SMALLEST OF THE BUILDING TYPES IS THE 2100 MM-HMM .

SOME OF THEM ARE MORE THAN 20, 2100 MM-HMM .

BUT PLEASE NOTE THAT THE MINIMUM SIZE IS 1200 MM-HMM .

SO WE'RE NOT, UH, COMPROMISING ON THE SIZE.

WE'RE NOT COMPROMISING ON THE FACILITIES.

IN FACT, EVERY BEDROOM HOUSE, BATHROOM, WE HAVE THREE BEDROOMS. WOW.

AND THREE AND HALF BATHROOMS. WOW.

TWO LIVING ROOMS, DOUBLE GARAGE.

SO IN TERMS OF THE QUALITY OF THE DESIGN, UH, WE'RE SPOT ON.

WE WERE ALSO CRITICIZED BY THE REALITY OF THE CURRENT, UH, PRIZES MM-HMM .

AND THE 2,600 WAS, IS NOT SUPPORTED BY MM-HMM .

THE MARKET CAP.

WHAT IS THE PRICE POINT ON THIS SORT OF, WE WERE, WE'RE WORKING WITH 300,000 MM-HMM .

UH, WE'RE STILL HOPING THAT 300,000 IS A GOOD FIGURE.

UH, IT'S LIKELY THAT WE GO A LITTLE ABOVE, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO HIT 500 MM-HMM .

YOU KNOW MM-HMM .

THOSE WHO WANT TO BUY 500, $500,000 HOUSES, THEY KNOW WHERE TO GO.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO COME TO ARTHUR.

WOW.

WELL, THAT'S VERY IMPRESSIVE.

AND THANK YOU FOR THAT BACKSTORY.

I WAS JUST CURIOUS AND I GOT MORE THAN WHAT I, I I BARGAINED FOR ON THAT .

THANK YOU, COMMISSIONERS.

THANK YOU FOR THAT.

COMMISSIONERS.

WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN? NO, I JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU.

OH, THANK YOU MIKE.

THANK YOU FOR BEING SO INFORMATIVE AND I MEAN, YOU EASED MY MIND ABOUT THE SIZE BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE WORRY ABOUT TOO SMALL MM-HMM .

FOR RESALE VALUE AND YOU JUST CLEARED IT ALL UP.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I THINK THAT'S IT.

THIS IS, UM, DISTRICT SIX COMMISSIONER COCA.
