a slip road. Mr. Flynn stated that the purpose of that slip road was to minimize curb cuts
to Chapman Road. The RI-PD stipulates that Lots 4 and 5 share a drive way and Lots 6
and 7 share a drive way. This addresses the concerns of curb cuts to Chapman Road.

line.
Mr. Comstock presented staffs report. He reviewed the zoning and platting history of the
property beginning in 2013 and the land use and development regulations for the

Planning and Zoning Commission approved the request with a vote of 5-0, but the vote
was 4-1, with Commissioner Luppy voting in opposition. Commissioner Luppy expressed

opposition to the request that triggers Section 211.006 of the Texas Local Government
Code, which requires a three -fourths vote by City Council.
