Katy Jackson motioned to approve the meeting minutes; Alan King seconded the motion, which passed unopposed (6-0)_ AGENDA ITEM NO. 5: Presentation, possible action, and discussion on an alternative to the parking lot screening requirements for a proposed freestanding restaurant located at 4471 State Highway 6 South. Case # 10-00500235 (MKH) Staff Planner Matthew Hilgemeier presented the staff report stating that Whataburger is proposing to construct a new freestanding structure near the intersection of William D. Fitch Parkway and the State Highway 6 South Frontage Road. When constructed, the new structure will be part of a building plot that has more than 150,000 gross square feet of building floor area. Section 7.9.F.4 of the Unified Development Ordinance requires that when a building is part of a building plot with a gross building area of 150,000 square feet or more, that all parking areas be screened from the public right-of-way using a three-foot berm. As an alternative, Whataburger proposes to provide a row of shrubs that will have a minimum height of 24 inches at installation and reach 36 -inches within one calendar year of planting. When the Whataburger building is constructed, the parking area will have a finished floor elevation that is approximately seven feet lower than the State Highway 6 South Frontage Road. The applicant stated that since the proposed site is that much lower than the adjacent street, a three-foot high berm constructed on the Whataburger property would be ineffective as a screening mechanism. Alan King motioned to approve the item with the condition that the Dwarf Buford Holly plant be used instead of the Agarito plant in the screening along the State Highway 6 frontage road; Bill Mather seconded the motion; which passed unopposed (6-0).
