PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
From: The Office of the City Manager Date: January 7, 2016
Subject: SUP 2015-10 Public Hearing and consideration of a request from Big
Red Dog Engineering for a Special Use Permit for a Detention Pond on
the proposed Athlos Academies Charter School site located at 6601
Glenview Drive & 4131 Rufe Snow Drive.
Presenter: Clayton Husband, Principal Planner
Summary:
Athlos Academies, represented by Big Red Dog Engineering, is requesting a Special
Use Permit (SUP) for a detention pond associated with the development of a charter
school. The school property is 12.83 acres in size and located at the northwest corner of
Rufe Snow Drive and Glenview Drive. The property is the site of the former Food Lion
grocery store.
General Description:
The applicant proposes to construct a public charter school on the property that would
be operated by International Leadership of Texas, which has schools located in
Garland, Arlington, and north Fort Worth. The 65,560-square foot school would serve
kindergarten through eighth grades. Site development and construction would be
performed by Athlos Academies, a charter school service provider based in Boise,
Idaho.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Special Use Permit to authorize the use of a
detention pond on the site. Section 118-729 of the Zoning chapter and Section 102-124
of the Floods and Stormwater Management chapter of the Code of Ordinances
establish the requirements and standards for the Special Use Permit. The use of all
detention or retention ponds requires approval of a Special Use Permit.
Detention Pond
City codes allow for detention ponds if the proposed development is discharging
stormwater into a developed downstream system that does not have the capacity to
handle the runoff. During the evaluation of the site and the existing conditions of the
area, the applicant concluded that a detention pond would be necessary to
accommodate development of the site. The 13-acre site is located near the downstream
end of a 97-acre drainage area that is fully developed. The site represents
approximately 13% of the entire watershed.
Packet Pg. 6
B.1
MFIt
NC:KTH KIC H&.AND HILLS
Stormwater enters the site through an underground drainage system in Rufe Snow
Drive from the northeast and from a storm drain system internal to the site from the
northwest. These two drainage systems (northeast and northwest) discharge
stormwater into a natural open channel area near the middle of the site. Stormwater
then exits the site through an existing headwall at Glenview Drive with a 72-inch pipe
running down Jackie Lee Street and ultimately draining into Mackey Branch.
The system in Jackie Lee Street does not have the capacity to accommodate the
existing stormwater runoff leaving the site, which causes the natural open channel area
to function as a naturally made detention pond.
The athletic field on the site would also be used as a primary detention area. This pond
would drain from the athletic field into the proposed detention pond adjacent to
Glenview Drive through an underground storm drain system. During heavy rain events,
the system would slow down the rate that stormwater drains from the athletic field into
the pond, which in turn allows for the slower release of stormwater into the downstream
drainage system in Jackie Lee Drive. This pond will be activated in rain events with a 2-
year or greater recurrence interval.
The proposed downstream detention pond would be located adjacent to Glenview
Drive. The design is an earthen structure with an overall depth of eight feet. The existing
headwall and 72-inch pipe at Glenview Drive will remain in place. The sides are
designed at a 4:1 slope, with a concrete pilot channel provided at the bottom of the
slope. The design is comparable in nature to the detention pond constructed on the
WinCo Foods site at Dick Lewis Drive and Thaxton Parkway. This pond will be activated
for storage purposes in rain events with a 25-year or greater recurrence interval.
The ponds would use restriction plates in the drainage infrastructure to detain the
stormwater to the capacity of the drainage system in Jackie Lee Street. In the event that
the Jackie Lee stormwater system is improved to City standards, the restriction plates
could be removed and the detention ponds could be abandoned.
The design of this two-part system is intended to address the prevailing drainage
pattern of the area where stormwater drains to the site from the northwest and northeast
and converges at the existing storm pipe on the site. The system is designed to detain
stormwater and allow it to drain from the site in a manner that does not overload the
existing Jackie Lee stormwater system. It is not designed to retain water to create a
decorative pond.
Landscaping
Zoning standards require that all detention ponds be landscaped. A site plan for the
school project is currently under review by the Development Review Committee (DRC),
and a landscape plan is included in the development plans. The general site
landscaping provides much of the landscaping for the pond. However, due to the pond's
visible location at the corner of the property, the landscaping is enhanced around the
pond to soften its appearance from the adjacent streets.
Trees to be planted around and in the pond area include big tooth maple, bald cypress,
and desert willow. These trees would be placed on the side slopes of the pond rather
than the bottom. Shrubs and smaller plants are concentrated at the corner of the pond
at the intersection of Glenview Drive and Rufe Snow Drive, and are included in planting
Packet Pg. 7
B.1
MFIt
NC:KTH KIC H&.AND HILLS
beds on the side slopes. There are additional planting beds proposed between the pond
and the street. A copy of the landscape plan is attached.
Fencing
City codes do not require fencing around a detention pond. However, the DRC
recommends fencing in the area around the headwall on the north side of the pond
where stormwater enters the pond from the pipe system on the property. Since there is
enough room at the top of the pond for a person to walk, adding a section of fencing at
the headwall location would alert a pedestrian to an obstacle in the area and provide
some means of protection from falling. The DRC recommends the installation of a 4-foot
tall ornamental metal fence that extends 30 feet to either side of the center of the
headwall.
Maintenance
The property owner is responsible for the maintenance of the pond and all associated
landscaping. A formal maintenance agreement will be executed as part of the approval
of the subdivision plat for the property. Generally, the agreement requires the owner to
mow and maintain all grass and landscaping, remove trash and debris once a week,
remove silt from the basin or outlet structures as necessary, and repair any decorative
fencing. The agreement runs with the property and would apply to any future owner or
user.
Special Use Permit
The zoning ordinance provides that special use permits may establish reasonable
conditions of approval on the operation and location of the use to reduce its effect on
adjacent or surrounding properties. The ordinance also includes specific criteria for
detention and retention ponds, for which slight deviations are recommended due to the
functional nature and location of the pond on the site.
The following are the proposed conditions of approval for this SUP application.
1. Permitted use. A special use permit is authorized for a detention pond.
2. Engineering approval. Construction of the detention pond is subject to final
approval of the engineering plans by the Development Review Committee
and City Engineer.
3. Landscaping. The detention pond must be landscaped in accordance with
the minimum standards of Chapter 114 of the Code of Ordinances
(Vegetation) and the general landscape material quantities and locations
presented on the Landscape Plan reviewed by the Planning & Zoning
Commission and City Council. The landscape plan is subject to final
approval by the Development Review Committee.
4. Detention pond criteria. The following design criteria shall apply to the
detention pond:
a. The pond outlet structure may be located within 50 feet of the
property line.
b. The detention basin side slopes may be 4H:1V or milder.
Packet Pg. 8
B.1
MFIt
NC:KTH KIC H&.AND HILLS
c. The depth of the detention pond storage basin must not exceed 13
feet.
5. Maintenance agreement. The owner must execute a detention/retention
storage facility maintenance agreement in conjunction with the approval of
the subdivision plat for the property.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan as Public/Semi-Public and Retail. The Public/Semi-Public designation, which
applies to the former Food Lion site, is intended to permit non-profit activities of an
educational, religious, governmental, or institutional nature. This designation is due to
the City of North Richland Hills being the owner of the tract. The Retail designation,
which applies to the remainder of the property, is intended to permit a variety of retail
trade, personal and business services establishments, and offices.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is currently zoned C-1 Commercial. This district is
intended to provide for development of retail service, and office uses principally serving
community and regional needs. The C-1 district should be located on the periphery of
residential neighborhoods and be confined to intersections of major arterial streets. It is
also appropriate for major retail corridors as shown on the comprehensive plan. Public
schools—including charter schools—are permitted by right in any zoning district.
