Analysis

 

SUMMARY:

 

Consider a request to amend the concept plan and 0.67 acres in Planned Development-130 (PD-130) District to allow General Retail-1 (GR-1) District uses. The 0.67-acre property, located at 2864 W. Camp Wisdom Road, is zoned Planned Development-130 (PD-130) District.

West

PD-114A for Single Family Town House uses and General Retail-1 (GR-1) District

Restaurant with drive through

                     

PURPOSE OF REQUEST:                     

 

The purpose of this request is to change the zoning of 0.67 acres within PD-130 to allow GR-1 District uses.  The balance of 9.76-acre property, 9.09 acres, will remain PD-130 for Single Family-1 (SF-1) District uses. This proposal has companion cases; a replat that will create a 0.67-acre lot from the existing 9.67 acre lot, and a specific use permit and site plan to allow a restaurant with drive-through in the southwest corner of the subject site.

 

CONFORMANCE WITH COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: 

 

The Future Land Use Map (FLUM) of the 2010 Comprehensive Plan shows this area as appropriate for Low Density Residential (LDR) uses.  This use is inconsistent with this FLUM designation. Annually, the Future Land Use Map is revised to address inconsistencies that arise during the year.

 

ZONING REQUIREMENTS                     

 

The existing base zoning is SF-1 district.  The proposed base zoning for the 0.67 acres is GR-1 District. All zoning will defer to the Unified Development Code (UDC) as amended. 

 

Dimensional Requirements

 

The PD-130 ordinance governing the subject site would defer to the GR-1 district provisions contained in the UDC, as amended.  The following outlines the minimum dimension requirements of the GR-1 district and provides an analysis of the proposal compliance with the district.

Note to applicant: Some comments below may not pertain to your development.  Contact the Development Coordinator for clarification. 

                     

Approval of a project by the Planning and Zoning board, and/or City Council, does not release the Building Inspections Permit or Public Works Permit for construction.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to confirm with the Planning Department if the property is to be (re-platted, preliminary, and/or final) platted.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to submit all required escrow funds for third party drainage review for public improvements prior to construction plan submittal.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to confirm the submittal of plans for review to the Engineering Division.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to submit all required escrow funds for third party geotechnical and material testing for public improvements that are to be dedicated to the City prior to release of the construction permit.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to submit all required information to establish a pro-rata for water or wastewater prior to release of the construction permit.

 

Final engineering plans released for construction are required prior to the recording of the final plat.

 

It is the developer’s responsibility to submit any required escrow funds for streets or sidewalks. 

 

A preliminary drainage plan that meets City Code may be required. The plan shall address possible need for detention and provide preliminary storm drain layout and sizing for all lots.

 

Contractor/Owner shall not alter, impede, or redirect the surface flow of storm water runoff per State requirements and shall control erosion on the site per federal, state, and local requirements. Grading, drainage, and erosion control plans, released for construction are required prior to filing the final plat. Such plans shall include complete plans and profiles of all storm drainage facilities with hydrologic and hydraulic information. Proposed storm drain hydraulics shall tie to existing downstream storm drain hydraulics. Where applicable, drainage from the site shall discharge into a drainage easement and shall convey flow to a stream without causing erosion or flooding. The 100-year overflow shall be conveyed in a drainage easement.

 

Delineate the fully developed floodplain on plats and drainage plans with flood elevations and minimum finished floor elevations for structures. Floodplains and/or maximum water surface elevation for bodies of water shall be dedicated as drainage right-of-way (ROW) or in a drainage easement upon the plat. Drainage ROW shall be dedicated fee simple to the City of Grand Prairie. Also provide cross sections showing that limits of drainage easement have a maximum 4:1 slope from the streambed.  Proposed slopes greater than 4:1 must be supported by an engineered design and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the Engineering Department.  Any work within floodplain will require Floodplain Development Permit and, if applicable, FEMA approval.

 

Delineate any erosion hazard setback upon the plat.

 

Any future improvements may require investigation of the adequacy of the downstream drainage system to convey increased flows. Construction plans for downstream improvements shall be required if the downstream system is not adequate to convey the increased flows.  Proposed flows shall be within drainage easements or ROW’s with no erosive velocities. This may require detention or additional detention or other improvements.
