Mr. Lee presented the staff report for the Site Plan for Cooper Retail Addition, stating
that the proposal will be a Dairy Queen on one acre. The size of the single story
restaurant with drive-thru facility will be 2,667 square feet. The property is located on
Lot 3 of the Cooper Retail Addition, between the Starbucks and Texas Credit Union,
which fronts State Highway 78.
The anticipated primary access for drive-thru patrons will be drive-entry along Cooper
Drive. The initial operation may pose vehicular circulation challenges for patrons
visiting the restaurant for dine-in and/or drive-thru services. Therefore staff carefully
directed the design team to consider additional pavement markings and directional
signage and it is anticipated that over time a reduction in potential conflicts in circulation
patterns will occur.
The Texas Credit Union has additional parking that overlaps into the proposed Lot 3,
which will be removed prior to construction of the Dairy Queen.
Commissioner Smith questioned the congested traffic within the existing retail facilities
in Cooper Retail Addition and does Starbucks have access from Cooper Drive.
Mr. Sam Satterwhite, Wylie EDC, stated that the Cooper Retail Addition was developed
in 2005. Wylie EDC owned the property prior to development, creating the access from
Cooper Drive onto State Highway 78, after the railroad tracks were removed along State
Highway 78. The proposed Dairy Queen will be accessed one lot down from the existing
drive-through entrance for Starbucks off Cooper Road.
A motion was made by Commissioner Tamez, and seconded by Commissioner Smith, to
approve the Site Plan for Cooper Retail Addition, Block A, Lot 3 (Dairy Queen)
developing a single story, 2,667 square foot restaurant with drive-thru facility on one lot
consisting of 0.81 acre, generally located north on SH 78, just south of Cooper Drive.

Public Hearing
1. Hold a Public Hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council
regarding a request for a Specific Use Permit (SUP) for an Equipment Rental
use on one lot of 2.0 acres (Highway 78 Business Park Addition, Block A,
Lot 2) located at 1211 Highway 78 South.ZC 2012-05
Mr. Haskins presented the proposed request for a Specific Use Permit for an Equipment
Rental facility within an existing structure at 1211 Highway 78 South,within the Highway 78
Business Park Addition, Block A, Lot 2. The applicant is Rental One with Mike O'Neal as
the manager,and the owner is Mr. Lou Gigliotti.
The property is zoned Commercial Corridor and has been used as an Automotive Repair,
Major for several years. The applicant desires to redevelop the property for equipment rental,
which is generally consistent with Commercial Corridor designated land uses. The applicant
is requesting an SUP to operate such facility subject to approval of less than required parking
and landscaping and the City Engineer's approval of a drainage plan.
To improve the property the following changes are proposed by the applicant; to increase
landscaping in the front of the property;the 12,000 square foot metal structure will be clad in
masonry materials to comply with the current zoning ordinance; parking will be realigned
with a total of 18 spaces provided,which is less than the required. However due to the nature
of the business, a rental of large equipment, the reduced number in parking is justifiable;
concrete paving will be added to the rear of the property;and fencing will be improved along
the property frontage. .�
Commissioner Tamez questioned if there will be outside storage of equipment. Mr. Haskins
stated that the applicant is proposing to improve the existing fence on the property to screen
the equipment in the back. Currently the back half of the property is landscaped; the
applicant is proposing to pave the majority of the back to store the large equipment, which
will be screened from State Highway 78.
Commissioner Kopchenko expressed concern of the proposed six percent landscaping,
stating that the landscaping requirement is twenty percent. Mr. Haskins stated that the
existing structure is placed close to the front of the lot. Texas Department of Transportation
has about 25 to 30 feet of right-of-way for State Highway 78. Mr. Lee stated that the
applicant is improving the existing lot. Mr. Haskins stated that the property is configured to
where additional landscaping is not available. Staff feels that the applicant is meeting spirit
of the Ordinance,but may not meet the letter of the Ordinance.
Chairman Johnston opened the Public Hearing. With no one approaching the Commission,
Chairman Johnston closed the Public Hearing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Smith, and seconded by Commissioner Dahl, to
recommend approval to the City Council regarding a change in zoning from Commercial
Corridor (CC) District to Commercial Corridor-SUP (CC/SUP) District for an Equipment
Rental use, located at 1211 Highway 78 South, Highway 78 Business Park Addition, Block
A, Lot 2. ZC 2012-05. Motion carried 6—O.
