FORMAT: Resolution
SYNOPSIS INCLUDING PRO & CON: The applicant is requesting approval of a revised
preliminary plat for an approximately 19.15-acre subdivision generally

The preliminary plat identifies two (2) lots for future commercial

Approval of a revised Preliminary Plat for Ashworth West Plat 1
City Planner, Andy Kass, introduced the request to revise a preliminary plat as submitted
by the applicant, AP GPP, LC. The subject property is located south of Ashworth Road and west
of Grand Prairie Parkway, containing approximately 19.15 acres.
Mr. Kass advised that the request for revisions is related to a change in the alignment of
SE Kettlestone Blvd along the south boundary of the subject property, as well as minor changes
to the lot sizes of lots 1 and 2. SE Kettlestone Blvd will be a full access signalized intersection at
the intersection of Grand Prairie Parkway and a roundabout has been identified at the west end of
the proposed plat to be constructed with future development. The access to lots 1 and 2 is
I7
identified off of SE Kettlestone Blvd by a shared access between the lots. Access will initially be
full access until such a time as the roundabout is constructed at which time the access will
become right in/right out. Lot 1 is now proposed at 2.67 acres and lot 2 is now proposed at 1.66
acres. The northern outlot Z is 13.95 acres in area and will be platted with future development.
At this time staff would approve the revisions to the preliminary plat for Ashworth West
Plat 1.

HISTORY
The subject property is located south of Ashworth Road and west of Grand Prairie Parkway. The property is located
within the master planned Kettlestone district. The property was rezoned to K-RR (Kettlestone Retail Regional) in
2019. The Planning and Zoning Commission has previously reviewed and recommended approval of a preliminary plat
for the proposed project, however, the overall alignment for the proposed extension of Kettlestone Boulevard to the
south of the proposed project has changed slightly that has resulted in minor changes to the overall preliminary plat.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
LOTS
The preliminary plat identifies two (2) lots. The lots range in size from 2.01 acres to 2.67 acres (previously shown as
1.66-acres to 2.66-acres). The lots are intended for future commercial development. Outlot Z shown on the preliminary
plat is 13.95-acres in area and will be platted in the future as development occurs. Table 1 below summarizes the bulk
regulations for the K-RR District.

STREETS AND TRAIL
As part of the improvements for the development, the applicant will construct an extension of SE Kettlestone Boulevard
along the south side of the property. SE Kettlestone Boulevard will be a full access signalized intersection at Grand
Prairie Parkway. A roundabout has been identified at the west end of the proposed plat which will be constructed as a
part of a future improvement when development to the west occurs. Access to the two lots will be provided off of SE
July 24, 2020

Kettlestone Boulevard by a shared access located between the two lots This access will initially function as a full access
point. At some point in the future when development occurs further to the west, this access may be restricted to a
right in/right out if the existing full access becomes unsafe due to traffic volumes, stacking at Grand Prairie Parkway
and/or accident volume. The addition of the roundabout in the future will allow customers to Lots 1 and 2 the ability to
exit those two lots and turn around to get back to Grand Prairie Parkway if in the future the full access needs to be
removed. One additional access from Grand Prairie Parkway is proposed in the northeast corner of Lot 1, which will be
a right-in/right-out.
A 10-foot-wide trail will be installed on the south side of SE Kettlestone Boulevard. Sidewalks will be provided along the
internal private streets.
UTILITIES
Water main will be extended along SE Kettlestone Boulevard and into the development. A sanitary trunk sewer has
been constructed from the south with access to the property being provided at the southwest corner of Lot 2.
Storm water detention for the development will be provided within a regional storm water pond north of Lots 1 and 2.
The storm water ponds will be the maintenance responsibility of the owners association of the development.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The proposed lots meet the minimum requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The preliminary plat is in general
conformance with the Subdivision Ordinance. Staff recommends approval subject to remaining staff comments.
