PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: November 1 , 2018
SUBJECT: Discuss standards and regulations for cross access easements and
property access.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The Development Review Committee (DRC) continually monitors building, land use, and
other development issues throughout the city. As part of several site plan and subdivision
plat reviews this year, the DRC discussed the lack of a uniform standard for cross access
easements and general access to properties.
Cross-access connections allow motorists to circulate between adjacent properties
without having to reenter the primary street. These connections improve the overall ease
of access to development and reduce the need for individual driveways. This results in
improved safety by minimizing the number of vehicles turning off and onto the street,
allowing through traffic to flow more efficiently. When medians are installed in major
arterials such as Precinct Line Road, Davis Boulevard, and Boulevard 26, such cross
access also allows motorists to access median openings and signalized intersections.
As North Richland Hills approaches build-out and properties begin to redevelop, the DRC
noted several areas of interest:
• Maintain reasonable vehicular access to streets while prohibiting the indiscriminate
location and spacing of driveways;
• Reduce barriers for redevelopment of properties by providing adequate access for
all properties;
• Use of reserve strips to block access to public facilities such as streets;
• Lower the potential for fragmentary and piecemeal development patterns.
The DRC sought City Council's input and direction on whether updates to the subdivision
regulations should be considered to address cross access easements and property
access. City Council directed staff to prepare updates for consideration, which will be
presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission at a future meeting.
The purpose of this work session item is to receive any initial feedback from the
Commission on the topic prior to city staff drafting any regulation.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION
MEMORANDUM
FROM: The Office of the City Manager DATE: November 1 , 2018
SUBJECT: RP 2018-04 Consideration of a request from Hamilton Duffy PC for
a replat of Parkside Place, being 5.805 acres located in the 7300
block of Circle Drive.
PRESENTER: Clayton Comstock, Planning Director
SUMMARY:
On behalf of Tommy Cunningham, Hamilton Duffy PC is requesting approval of a replat
of Parkside Place. This 5.805-acre subdivision includes 23 residential lots and 4 open
space lots. The property is located south of Circle Drive at the end of Wynwood Drive.
The proposed replat meets the requirements of the approved Residential Infill Planned
Development ordinance and subdivision regulations. For reference, below is the
development plan approved by City Council during the zoning consideration.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The property under consideration is a 5.805-acre triangular-shaped lot located at the
south end of Wynwood Drive, which is a dead end street that intersects Circle Drive. The
site is bounded by existing single-family residential development on the north (Holiday
IgRH
NORTH KICHLAND HILLS
Meadows and Holiday North additions), the Calloway Branch creek channel on the west,
and the North Electric Trail hike and bike trail on the south. The softball fields for Richland
High School are located immediately south of the property.
The property is currently platted as Lot 2, Block 35, Holiday North Addition, a single-lot
plat approved in 1984. In November 2017, the property was rezoned from R-7-MF
Multifamily to RI-PD Residential Infill Planned Development to accommodate the
proposed single-family residential subdivision.
The proposed development includes 23 single-family lots with an approximate density of
3.9 dwelling units per acre. The typical lot size is 50 feet wide and 90 feet deep, with an
average lot size of 5,931 square feet. The subdivision is accessed from a single street
entrance that connects to Circle Drive. All lots would front on a cul de sac, and most lots
back up to either the North Electric Trail or creek channel.
The development incorporates 10,639 square feet of useable open space, which makes
up 4.21% of the total site area. This includes an open space lot with seating areas and
an 8-foot sidewalk that provides a direct connection to the North Electric Trail. An open
space lot near the eastern end of the development would include a sidewalk and the
location for the cluster mail box for the neighborhood.
Approximately 1 .24 acres, or 21 .32% of the total site area, is located within the floodway
for the Calloway Branch creek channel. This property is undevelopable and contained
within a drainage easement. Fifteen of the lots are also located within the 1% chance
floodplain, and minimum finished floor elevations of at least 18 inches above the Base
Flood Elevation are established for these lots. The elevations are based on a flood study
prepared for this development and the FEMA effective flood study. A Letter Of Map
Revision Based on Fill (LOMR-F) will be applied for with FEMA once construction is
complete and prior to issuing any building permits for the fifteen properties within the
floodplain.
As required by Section 212.015 of the Texas Local Government Code and Section 110-
219 of the subdivision regulations, this replat will require a public hearing when the plat
is considered the City Council.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: This area is designated on the Comprehensive Land Use
Plan as "Low Density Residential." This designation is intended to provide for traditional,
low-density single-family detached dwelling units.
CURRENT ZONING: The property is zoned RI-PD Residential Infill Planned
Development. The zoning was approved by City Council on February 26, 2018, by
Ordinance No. 3501. The RI-PD zoning district is intended to encourage residential
development of small and otherwise challenging tracts of land by offering incentives that
encourage creative and inventive development scenarios. These developments are
limited to residential development or redevelopment of less than ten acres.
