ITEM SUMMARY: The applicant proposes a potential layout for 3 lots as required under “PD” - Planned Development District Ordinance No. 1997-05-34 and “PD” - Planned Development District Ordinance No. 1997-05-33. Three buildings for indoor amusement, and three retail, restaurant, and office buildings are proposed for the undeveloped lot and are all permitted under the approved zoning.
PLATTING STATUS: The subject property is not platted. Subsequent to the approval of a site plan, a preliminary final plat and a record plat, subject to review and approval by the City of McKinney is required. The record plat must be filed for recordation with the Collin County Clerk prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
CONCEPT PLAN: Under the governing base planned development ordinance, a concept plan is required if the development of the entire zoning area is not shown on a single site plan. A zoning area is a tract of land or contiguous tracts of land under the same zoning district. The subject property is currently zoned “PD” Planned Development for commercial uses. The governing ordinance stipulates that concept plans be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council.
The purpose of a concept plan is to set forth the development objectives allowed under zoning criteria in a graphic or specific written manner. As each site on the concept plan develops, a site plan will be required.
The proposed concept plan shows the subject property can be effectively developed as 3 lots, as long as basic access and circulation needs are planned for the overall parcel as a whole. The attached concept plan displays the proposed lot layout for the development and indicates the lots will be developed as indoor amusement, office, retail and restaurant uses. As each lot on the plan is developed, a site plan is required.
While the proposed concept plan lays out the anticipated use of all 3 lots, any future development of the subject property will be subject to all applicable City Ordinances, including but not limited to the Zoning Ordinance (i.e. land use and development regulations) and the Subdivision Ordinance (i.e. platting). Proposed concept plans as approved shall not allow for deviations to applicable City Ordinances.
