ITEM 2. CASE NO. 16-10-SP — CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A SITE PLAN
Senior Planner Stephen Cook gave a brief description of the case. Glade Parks is
constructing a 5,000 s.f. retail building at the Brazos Boulevard intersection with the SH
121 frontage road. Starbucks Coffee will occupy the south side of the building. This lot
will not have access to the south as the area to the south is floodplain for the Bear Creek
branch through the Glade Parks development.
Access, Parking and Paving — Access to this parcel is provided from Brazos Boulevard.
A shared drive will be established for a future development to the east, creating cross
access between the two lots. The distance of the drive access from the nearest
intersections is compliant with city standards. The applicant has designed the queue
length to the Starbucks to accommodate nine (9) vehicles outside of the drive aisle for
the development. The site will accommodate parking for the coffee shop as well as for
another building tenant.
Landscaping — Landscaping will be installed along both street frontages as well as
surrounding the building.
Structure — The building will be constructed out of compliant masonry products including
cast stone, stucco and the Nichiha product which has been used on other facades in the
Glade Parks development to present a wood grain finish.
The Development Services Group (DSG) has certified that the site plan is in accordance
with the requirements of the Glade Parks Planned Development Ordinance. Staff
recommends approval of the site plan.
There were no further questions or comments presented by the Commission.
