ITEM 2 CASE #08-06-SP – CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR A SITE PLAN
Consider a recommendation regarding a request for a Site Plan for Commercial
Development proposed to be located at John A Groves Survey, A-599, Tract
3E01, 2812 S. Pipeline Road W.
Mike Collins, Director of Planning and Development, gave a brief description of the case. The
applicant, C.F. Electric, Inc., is seeking approval of a Site Plan for a 5,985 square foot
commercial building. The development is proposed for a .62 acre tract zoned I-1 (light industrial)
that is located on the north side of S. Pipeline Road, east of Raider Drive. Bacarat Court is
located to the north/northwest and is zoned TX-10. Specifically, the applicant intends to
construct a 5,985 square foot building, with 2,000 square feet of office and 3,985 square feet of
warehouse. No outdoor storage or display shall occur on site. Access to the site is provided
from S. Pipeline Road. Funds will be placed in escrow for the required 74.50 linear feet of
sidewalk along Pipeline Road. The building will be constructed of 100% masonry, using split
faced cmu block, and featuring a metal roof. A 16" band of smooth faced cmu blocks in a
contrasting color will be incorporated midway in the elevation, with the same smooth faced cmu
block used to frame the corners of the south elevation. All site development standards, including
landscaping, parking, and lighting have been satisfied. The site represented challenges
regarding drainage, but those too have been satisfied as well. The applicant is requesting no
variances from any of the 1-1 light Industrial district development standards.
— Chairman McNeese asked if there would be multiple work trucks stored at this location.
Mike Collins stated this is a small operation and will be minimal. There will be no external
storage.
Vice Chairman May made a motion to approve case #08-06-SP. Commissioner Portugal
seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:
Ayes: Chairman McNeese, Vice Chairman May, Commissioners Zahn, Huffman, Portugal,

The motion carried (7-0-0)
ITEM 3 CASE #08-12-SP – CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR A SITE PLAN
Consider a recommendation regarding a request for a Site Plan for Commercial
Development proposed to be located at International/Regional Industrial Complex,
Block E, Lot 6, 1350 Westpark Way.
Mike Collins, Director of Planning and Development, gave a brief description of the case. The
applicant, Redifun Simulation, Inc. (RSI) represented by Neil Wheatley, is seeking approval of a
Site Plan for an addition to an existing 17,570 square foot commercial building that was built

Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes December 2, 2008
originally for Krispy Kreme in 2000. RSI purchased the property and was issued a Certificate of
Occupancy to occupy the existing building on July 25, 2006. Due to the success that the
business has experienced, the owner has proposed to add on to the existing structure. The
property is zoned 1-2 Heavy Industrial.
Specifically, the applicant intends to construct a 7,935 square foot single story addition, with
new 6" pavement to be constructed between the existing hammer head fire lane and the new
building. The new space would include predominantly open warehouse space to be used to
assemble and store flight simulation models. The addition is designed to match the architecture
of the existing structure and will be 100% masonry construction through the use of true stucco,
and featuring a metal roof. The new structure does not trigger requirements for additional
landscaping, parking, or lighting. As is depicted on the Sheet 1 of the Site Plan exhibit, the
hammer head fire lane will be extended southward to the south property line. The pavement is
already constructed to satisfy fire lane standards. The current plat will be modified to reflect the
fire lane extension. Current ingress/egress will be maintained. The applicant is requesting no
variances from any of the 1-2 heavy Industrial district development standards.
Mike Collins stated the applicant's representatives, Jeff Everett and Brent Bordovsky, were
available for any questions.
Commissioner Bearden thanked the applicant for coming to Euless.
