This application amends Planned Development District 752 to authorize a 22,786-square-foot storm shelter addition to the existing Kleberg Elementary School at 1450 Edd Road. The project includes the construction of 16 new classrooms, a science lab, and a new internal traffic loop to manage student drop-off and pick-up.

• Traffic Management Plan (TMP): The applicant must implement a new TMP to address projected enrollment growth from 811 to 900 students. The plan directs parent vehicles to enter via a new eastern driveway on Garden Grove Drive and exit onto Edd Road.
• Pedestrian Safety: The ordinance mandates that any repaired or replaced sidewalk along the frontage must be reconstructed to a minimum six-foot width with a five-foot landscaped buffer.
• Reporting Requirements: The property owner must submit an initial traffic study by March 31, 2028, or within six months of the certificate of occupancy, followed by biennial updates every even-numbered year. Failure to comply triggers notification to the City Plan Commission.
• Pedestrian Amenities: The school must install at least three benches and three trash receptacles along the street frontage prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy.

Development Standards:

• The site remains subject to R-10(A) Single Family District standards, with a maximum structure height of 20 feet and maximum lot coverage of 25 percent.
• The site plan provides 68 off-street parking spaces.
