137.14 acres for a variety of proposed uses, including: office, commercial, and multi-family
housing. The original preliminary included phases 2 through 4. This amendment will insert a

— Block 3). Additionally, the plat is including new common areas into Phase 2, which will be
replatted to include these areas (Common Areas F, H, G, and I on Block 2 and Common Area D
on Block 1). There is also an additional lot that is created in Block 1 —originally this block
consisted of 2 lots, the new configuration shows 3 lots and 1 common area.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The subject property is designated as Planned
Development on the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The plat includes property with
frontage on University Drive East and Harvey Road, both major arterials, and Copperfield
Parkway, a minor arterial.
This property is part of the 30/60 Small Area Plan which identified this area for Mixed Use
Development. In 2003, the Mixed Use Study reclassified this area as Planned Development.
The 30/60 Plan listed a variety of uses that would be appropriate in this area: office,
commercial, clean industrial, and higher density single family and multi-family housing.
This plat is in compliance with the approved Master Plan as well as all subdivision regulations.
Future driveways along Copperfield Parkway and Crescent Pointe Parkway will be determined
at site plan and must comply with all driveway separation requirements.
Item Background: This property was annexed in 1979 and subsequently zoned M-1, Light
Industrial. Phase 1 of Crescent Pointe was platted in 2005. This plat included 4.2 acres divided
into 4 lots at the southwest corner of Copperfield Parkway and Crescent Pointe Parkway. The
property was rezoned in 2005 for rezonings to C-1, General Commercial, A-P, Administrative
Professional, and R-4, Multi-Family zoning districts.
A Master Plan was approved on this property in 2003. In 2005, the Master Plan was approved
again after the expiration of the previous plan.
