BACKGROUND INFORMATION:<br />

• The <strong>Dallas</strong> Independent School District is proposing to construct a new two-story,<br />

99,000 square foot elementary school which will have a maximum student<br />

enrollment <strong>of</strong> approximately 850 students.<br />

• The request site was currently developed as an elementary school but has been<br />

razed in order to develop the new school. A portion <strong>of</strong> the site will have an <strong>of</strong>f-street<br />

parking lot developed within a residential block as well as have several vacant lots<br />

designated solely as geo-thermal fields.<br />

• The applicant’s request for a Planned Development District is to modify the<br />

screening requirements for the <strong>of</strong>f-street parking and loading areas. The proposed<br />

elementary school will comply with the development standards and regulations<br />

specified in a D(A) Duplex District except for 2 exceptions.<br />

• The surrounding land uses are primarily single family. However, there are several<br />

retail and commercial uses that are located on East Grand Avenue. The request site<br />

is also adjacent to Planned Development District No. 497, which is an existing<br />

nursery. A 15-foot alley separates the proposed elementary school from the existing<br />

nursery.<br />
