Document Description
The project includes the subdivision of the 45.65-acre project site into 21 parcels and the subsequent development of restaurant, retail, medical office/clinic space, hotel, and retail automotive parts and service uses. A 9.11-acre portion of the project site comprised of Parcels 21 and 22 is currently designated for high-density residential uses, which (based on the existing zoning) could include the future development of up to 240 residential units. However, the development of Parcels 21 and 22 is not proposed as part of this project, and the parcels are only included within the project site for parcelization and rough grading purposes. The proposed project would include a total of 189,070 square feet (sf) of commercial uses, comprised of five quick-serve restaurants ranging in size between 2,400 sf and 3,887 sf; a 6,000-sf restaurant; seven retail buildings ranging between 6,900 sf and 30,000 sf; two medical office buildings 10,000 sf and 20,000 sf in size; a hotel with approximately 80 rooms; one car wash; and one gas station with a convenience store. A total of 1,175 parking spaces would be provided throughout the site. Vehicle site access would be provided by a new connection to Simmerhorn Road at the northern end of the site, which would lead to the new internal road, Galt Ranch Road, which will connect to Simmerhorn Road and Crystal Way.
