Analysis
SUMMARY:
Consider a request to approve a Preliminary Plat creating a two (2) lot non-residential subdivision totaling 45.3452 acres located within the William Reed Survey, Abstract No. 1193, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas. The subject property, zoned Planned Development 294 (PD-294) for General Retail (GR) District uses, is located at the southeast corner of S.H. 161 and Mayfield Road. The property is also located within the S.H. 161 Corridor Overlay District.
ADJACENT LAND USES AND ACCESS:
North - Directly north is Mayfield Road, which is classified on the Master Transportation Plan (MTP) as a four lane divided arterial (P4D). Across Mayfield Road, at the hard northeast corner of Mayfield and SH 161, is a 6.6 acre vacant tract zoned Planned Development 266 (PD-266) for Commercial One (C-1) uses. East of this property is a vacant out-parcel zoned Planned Development 91 (PD-91) for planned development uses, which appears to allow both residential and commercial uses. East of the noted out-parcel is the First Baptist Church of Grand Prairie campus, which is also zoned PD-91. Access to these vacant tracts will be from SH 161, Mayfield Road and established cross access easements.
South - Directly south of the subject property is a vacant tract of land zoned Planned Development 294 (PD-294), which is the same zoning classification as the subject property. Future access to this tract will likely come from SH 161, Robinson Road, and from yet to be platted private access easements and/or public roadways.
East - Directly east is Robinson Road, which is classified on the Master Transportation Plan (MTP) as a four lane divided arterial (P4D). Farther east is the Greenwood Addition No. 2 and a portion of the Royal Valley Estates Addition, both single-family detached residential zoning districts. At the southwest hard corner of Mayfield Road and Robinson Road is a stand-alone 0.64 acres tract zoned PD-294A for commercial uses. At the southeast hard corner of the same intersection are two tracts totaling 2.58 acres zoned PD-152A for General Retail (GR) District uses. Future access to these tracts will likely come from Robinson Road, and from yet to be platted private access easements and/or public roadways.
West - Directly west of the subject property is SH 161.
COMMENTS:
This property is being platted in conformance with the requirement for new construction. The owners are proposing to develop an IKEA retail store on Lot 1. No specific development plans have been established for Lot 2 to date
Access to the IKEA development is proposed from two new private roadway locations - one onto S.H. 161, to be named IKEA Place, and another onto Mayfield Road, to be named IKEA Way. As the IKEA will be the sole initial development on the 45.3452 acres property, these access points and private roadways are being established as mutual-access easements to ensure that there is legal access to the balance of the undeveloped property (Lot 2 and the property to the south of this subdivision) and to also limit the necessity for additional access drives onto these arterial streets to serve future development. As part the Mayfield Road Retail Addition preliminary plat, a third access connection at Robinson Road and an extension of the east/west internal private road is being provided. However, this access connection and internal roadway are not needed as part of the IKEA development and therefore the connection and internal roadway will not be built with this project, but will be deferred to a future date when the development of the surrounding property warrants the connection and construction of the roadway.
The Engineer has completed the technical revisions and Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) as requested by staff. Other than minor technical revisions this preliminary plat is recommended for conditional approval by the Commission. Please note that a final plat must be reviewed, approved and recorded prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Conditional approval of this plat by the Planning & Zoning Commission shall constitute approval subject to conformity with the prescribed conditions, but shall constitute disapproval until such conditions are met.
With the exception of the items listed as conditions of approval, this plat is in substantial compliance with the requirements of the Unified Development Code.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat of Mayfield Road Retail Addition with adherence to Development Review Committee review comments, including recommendation of the TIA.
