Adjournment CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION COVER SHEET MARCH 26, 1998 PS 98-02 Request of East-West Partners, Inc., for a Preliminary Plat to be known as Lots 1 & 2, Block 1, East-West Partners Addition. (Located in the 8600 Block of Davis Boulevard) Ken Jaffe is platting this 5.2-acre tract of land into two (2) lots for a convenience store/gas station. This property is generally located at the southeast corner of the new intersection of Precinct Line Road and Davis Boulevard. This property is completely surrounded by agricultural zoning on the north, west and south. The NRH/ Colleyville border is just to the east of this property. The issues associated with this preliminary plat are as follows: 1. Drainage Analysis: A drainage analysis was submitted with the preliminary plat. However, more detail needs to be provided in order for proper drainage calculations and determinations to be made with the final plat. 2. Fire Hydrants: A portion of Lot 2, in the southeast and southwest corners, does not have adequate fire protection. Additional fire hydrants may be required. 3. Easement Dedication: A sanitary sewer easement as a separate instrument is required adjacent to Davis Boulevard. 4. Driveway Spacing: Due to 500’ distance requirements between curb cuts on major collectors, only two (2) drive approaches will be allowed along Davis Boulevard. Similarly, only two (2) will be allowed along Precinct Line Road. The Public Works Department suggests that a joint approach be located on the property line of Lots 1 & 2 on Davis Boulevard as well as on Precinct Line Road. 5. GPS: The applicant has been advised that a GPS survey is required. 6. Sidewalks: The applicant has been advised that sidewalks are required adjacent to all public streets. 7. Streetlights: The applicant has been advised that streetlights will be required at this location and that cost of construction and installation will be paid by the developer directly to TU Electric. The applicant has agreed to all engineering comments. This plat is in conformance with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City of NRH. _____________________ PUBLIC ACTION SCHEDULE Barry LeBaron, AICP P & Z: 3/26/98 Director of Planning & Inspection Services City Council: N/A CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION COVER SHEET MARCH 26, 1998 PS 98-03 Request of Greg Clifton for a Short Form Final Plat to be known as Lot 1, Block 1, Clifton Addition. (Located at 8912 Amundson Road) Mr. Clifton is seeking to plat a previously unplatted 2.35 acre tract of land in order to expand on and significantly improve an existing single family home. The issues associated with this Short Form Final Plat are as follows: 1. Grading Plan & Drainage Analysis: Grading plans and a drainage analysis are generally required on all plats. However, in this instance, the property owner will not be significantly altering drainage or grading on the lot. The Public Works Department is not opposed to the owner providing a written “Hold Harmless Agreement” with the City. The applicant has been advised of this and has agreed to provide this document. 2. Sanitary Sewer: A six inch (6”) sanitary sewer main is required to be constructed across the frontage of the property adjacent to Walter Street. The Director of Public Works has provided the applicant with a quote for construction of the main by the city. This quote has been proposed to the property owner on several occasions. The applicant will reimburse the City for the costs of extending this sewer line. 3. Street Improvements: The south side of Amundson Road and the east side of Walter Road need to be improved to provide curb and gutter along the right-of-way adjacent to the property. The Subdivison Regulations require that the developer provide his portion of these improvements. Public Works is not opposed to the funds being placed in escrow. The escrow amount is approximately $74,000. The owner is requesting a waiver of this and is not opposed to signing a covenant. 4. Sidewalks: The applicant has been advised that sidewalks are required adjacent to all public streets. The applicant is requesting a waiver of this requirement since none currently exist on the south side of Amundson Road. 5. Streetlights: The applicant has been advised that streetlights are required at this location. The applicant has agreed and is in contact with TU Electric regarding construction and installation. 6. Zoning: This property is currently zoned as AG Agricultural. The applicant has been advised to submit an application for rezoning to a residential zoning classification. All other engineering comments have been agreed to. This plat is in conformance with the currently adopted Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City of NRH. _______________________________ Barry LeBaron, AICP Director, Planning & Inspection Services PUBLIC ACTION SCHEDULE: Planning & Zoning Commission: 3/26/98 City Council: 4/13/98 CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION COVER SHEET MARCH 26, 1998 PZ 98-03 Public Hearing to Consider the Request of Allan Young for a Special Use Permit for a Used Vehicle Sales Lot on Lot 1, Block 1, Calloway Addition. (Located at 7700 NE Loop 820) Ordinance No. 2293 7700 NE Loop 820 was previously a gasoline/service station. Mr. Young has purchased the property and is currently utilizing it in conjunction with his automobile dealership. Mr. Young would like to utilize this property, as is, for a used vehicle sales and storage lot. Long term plans for the property are to remove the existing structure and construct either an extension of the new vehicle sales facility or an improved used vehicle sales facility. In either event, construction will conform to the appearance and image standards of General Motors. Mr. Young has not provided any site plans or other plans as required in the Zoning Ordinance. At the present time Mr. Young is unsure what direction the property will take, i.e. part of the new sales facility or as the used sales facility. Mr. Young did not want to provide site plans for construction that may or may not occur. Mr. Young would like to utilize the property as is. All property owners within 200’ of this request have been notified. To date, staff has not received any adverse comments regarding this request. This rezoning request is in conformance with the currently adopted Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City of NRH. _____________________ Barry LeBaron, AICP Director, Planning & Inspection Services Public Action Schedule Planning & Zoning Commission: 3/26/98 City Council: 4/13/98 CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION COVER SHEET MARCH 26, 1998 PZ 98-13 Public Hearing to Consider the Request of Marvin Smith for Rezoning from AG Agricultural to R-1 Residential on a Portion of Tract 2, A-311, J. Condra Survey. (Located in the 7600 Block of Douglas Lane) Ordinance No. 2292 Mr. Smith is the owner of this one-acre tract of land. He is requesting to rezone this property from agricultural to residential. All property owners within 200’ of this request have been notified. To date, no adverse comments have been received. This rezoning request is in compliance with the currently adopted Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City of North Richland Hills. _______________________________ Barry LeBaron, AICP Director, Planning & Inspection Services PUBLIC ACTION SCHEDULE: Planning & Zoning: 2/12/98 City Council: 4/13/98 CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION COVER SHEET MARCH 26, 1998 PZ 98-12 Public Hearing to Consider Amending the Masonry Requirements in the I1- Light Industrial, I2-Medium Industrial, and U-Institutional Districts, and Revising the Notation in the Remaining Portion of Article 6. Ordinance No. 2258 At a prior Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, staff was directed to amend the masonry requirements in the industrial and institutional zoning districts. Currently, the I1, I2 and U districts are exempt from the 75% masonry requirement imposed in all other business-related districts. The proposed revision will require all structures in all business related zoning districts be constructed of 75% masonry. If a developer proposes to deviate from this percentage requirement or use some other non-masonry product on the exterior, then a Special Use Permit is required with site plan approval. This approach will allow greater control over the masonry requirement in those areas where masonry construction is appropriate and allows a developer a process for seeking alternate types of construction. Attached are two copies of Article 6 from the zoning regulations. The first copy represents Article 6 showing all deleted language with ‘strikethrough’ and new language in ‘bold-italics-underlined’. The second copy shows Article 6 with all the strikethrough words deleted and represents the final version of the portion of the zoning ordinance if approved as presented. The second part of this proposed ordinance is to establish proper “notation” in the remaining portion of Article 6. Currently, Article 6 is divided into paragraphs ranging from “A” to “T” and this type of paragraph notation is confusing and difficult to amend. The revised version puts the balance of Article 6 into the same notation format used elsewhere in the zoning regulations. ________________________________ Barry LeBaron, AICP Director of Planning & Inspections PUBLIC ACTION SCHEDULE: Planning & Zoning Commission: 3/26/98 City Council: 4/13/98
