APPROVED Mayor Trevino called on Clayton Comstock to present the item. Clayton Comstock, Planning Manager, presented the item. On behalf of Meacham Development, LLC, TMA CHA Architects is requesting a permit for nonconformity that would allow a building permit for substantial renovation of a property without conformance to the current landscaping standards. The owner of the property intends to renovate both the exterior and interior of the former TGI Friday's building at 8605 Airport Freeway. The renovations would exceed 75% of the current appraised value of the property's improvements, whereby requiring full conformance with current landscape standards. The applicant is able to achieve all requirements of the Landscape Ordinance except the 15-foot landscape setback and associated landscape material along its Airport Freeway frontage required by Section 114-71(g). Although the proposed office use for Guardian Force Security Services does not require as much parking as the former restaurant, the applicant prefers not to remove parking lot paving along Airport Freeway to accomplish the 15-foot landscape setback. If the pavement is removed the applicant would still have to work around an existing 15-foot sanitary sewer easement.
