The property is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of State
Highway 121 and Watters Road. The properties to the north (across State Highway 121) are the
City of McKinney. To the east (across Watters Road), west, and south, the
properties are zoned Planned Development No. 92 Corridor Commercial.
The
property is currently zoned Planned Development No. 92 with a base zoning of
Corridor Commercial. The original Planned Development was established in 2004
with the intent to emphasize entertainment, commercial, and retail uses. In
2016, two amendments to this Planned Development were approved allowing Office
and Medical or Dental Office uses on a portion of Tract A. In 2018, a Planned
Development Amendment was adopted to expand Office and Medical or Dental Office
uses, add Medical Clinic as a permitted use, and amend the Concept Plan.
The
applicant is requesting to expand the permitted uses to include a Smoking
Establishment use after approval of a Specific Use Permit and to amend the Concept
Plan to include an outdoor patio. A companion request for a Specific Use Permit
for the property will follow this agenda item.
The
attached Concept Plan shows an approximately 2.819± acre portion of the
Starcreek Village development. It shows an outdoor, covered patio of
approximately 415± square feet connected to the main dining room. The addition of the patio did not result in a
loss of parking spaces, and the provided parking exceeds minimum requirements.
The
attached development regulations include Smoking Establishment as a use
permitted by a Specific Use Permit.
At the April 2nd Planning and Zoning Commission, staff recommended that elevations of the proposed patio be added to the development regulations to ensure compatibility with the existing building.
On April 2, 2019, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the request with the addition of Patio Elevations to the development regulations.
