SUP 2010-01
Continue Public Hearing and Consideration of a Request from QuikTrip for a
Special Use Permit for a Convenience Store/Gas Station with nine fueling stations
or more (located at the southwest corner of NE Loop 820 and Rufe Snow Drive -
1.56 acres.)
J.D. Dudley, Real Estate Project Manager, 1120 N. Industrial Blvd., Euless, TX 76039.
Mr. Dudley stated that Quick Trip is very excited about this project. The building
articulation will be different on this site from others they have done. The roof pitch on
the canopy will be metal seam as opposed to the shingled roof done on Davis Blvd.
The building will model the one in Keller on Bear Creek with increased stone and the
HVAC will not be visible at all, it will be bricked and screened on all four sides. If in the
future the parking spaces are acquired behind the store to open the double sided store,
then only a sign and a door would be required for completion. He stated they have
worked with Staff regarding the deceleration lane left turn bay provided to the Corona
Drive to avoid stacking on Rufe Snow. The original drive between the building and the
canopy has been removed and we added a few additional parking spaces and a row of
screening. There have been a few additional trees added to the site plan. Full
engineering and architectural plans will be submitted as soon as possible once the SUP
has been approved. Once approved, Five Star Ford has 90 days to vacate and then the
demolition and grading can occur.
Eric Wilhite said this is a Special Use Permit for Quick Trip with 24 pumps and 4,902 sq.
ft. retail convenience store with a primary access point off of 820 and a shared private
drive with Five Star Ford. In order to get northbound access from the QT site, they are
also putting in another drive from Corona. The intersection design with the median is
being designed by the City and QT has worked with Staff on the traffic impact analysis
on turn lane movements and access for their use going in. QT has worked with Staff to
add more stone to the columns and HVAC equipment is screened from all sides. Once
more engineering has been done and zoning is in place, Staff will bringing forward a
plat for consideration, since the property purchased from Five Star will be purchased
and replatted. This SUP meets all the regulations and Staff recommends approval.
Mike Benton asked if QT would be required to come back for the back door entrance.
Eric Wilhite said no, it would not since the SUP does not have any significant impact
from surrounding properties or the site itself. It also has to do with the parking spaces
from Five Star. The parking spots, while on the QT lot, they will be utilized primarily by
Five Star for vehicle storage and there is a note on the SUP exhibit because if people
see vehicles stored out there, we want it known it is only for Five Star Ford vehicles.
Chairman Shiflet asked for clarification on the landscape requirement, stating it looks
like they exceeded the required amount by 31 %.
Eric Wilhite said yes they did to get the most of their parking spaces.

ZC 2009-03
Public Hearing and Consideration of a Request from Jesse B. Nelson for a Zoning
Change from AG -Agricultural to O-1 -Office on Tract 4 in the W.C. Newton
Survey (located at 8013 Precinct Line Road - 1.743 acres.)
Mark Long, Engineer for the applicants, 9115 Rumfield Road, NRH, came forward with
a request for zoning change. Mr. Barfield's property was zoned correctly, but Mr.
Nelson's was not, so they are combining the properties to gain access to the proposed
street.
Eric Wilhite said the zoning change is from AG to O-1. The Comprehensive Land Use
plan depicts NS for this area so office would be consistent with the request. It does tie
in to the property to the south that is already zoned O-1 that will give access and create
more space to have a larger office development with access to Belshire Drive. The
following case after this is the plat that will tie Mr. Nelson's property with Mr. Barfield's
property and then subdivide both. Staff has reviewed the request and recommends
approval.
Chairman Shiflet opened the Public Hearing and asked for anyone wishing to speak for
or against to come forward. Seeing none he closed the Public Hearing and entertained
a motion.
APPROVED
Bill Schopper motioned to approve ZC 2009-03, seconded by Mark Haynes. The
motion was carried unanimously. (4-0).
7.
RP 2009-02
Consideration of a Request from Jesse and Carol Nelson and J & J NRH 100, FLP
to Approve a Replat of Lot 10, Block 6, Thornbridge East Addition, Phase III and
Tract 4, W.C. Newton Survey into Lots 10R and 11-19, Block 6, Thornbridge East
Addition, Phase III (located at 8013 Precinct Line Road - 3.288 acres.)
Eric Wilhite said this will subdivide the portion that was just recommended for rezoning
and tie into the portion to the south creating a ten lot office park subdivision with primary
access off Belshire through a mutual access easement that will also act as a fire lane.
These offices will be garden type offices and will have to meet the site plan
requirements for each lot and go through DRC review. Precinct Line will be treated as a

thoroughfare and they will have to meet the landscape requirements along the site. It
meets all the subdivision rules and regulations and Staff recommends approval.
APPROVED

motion was carried unanimously. (4-0).
