The owners also want to re-locate an existing city right-of-way in the middle of the parking lot to the eastern boundary of the property to connect with the alley and place trash dumpsters there. Sun Life’s request is to change these four parcels into Community Retail (CR) zoning and replat the entire site into a Lot 1 for the existing building and parking and a Lot 2 for a proposed Andy’s Custard. Two parcels are zoned for multi-family (MF-2A), one is zoned for parking (P) and the Wells Fargo building is Limited Office (LO-2). Behind the center, in four separate tracts, is parking and the vacant Wells Fargo building. Sun Life also owns the Buzzbrews building and the EDDC building, but those lots are not included in this rezone request.Īs shown on the site plan below, the building housing Chip’s and Matt’s is zoned Community Retail (CR). A 2016 purchase added the vacant Wells Fargo office and drive-thru to Sun Life’s holdings. The meeting was hosted by Melissa Kingston, the District 14 Plan Commission Member appointed by Council member Paul Ridley.Īs The Advocate reported earlier, Canadian investor Sun Life Assurance bought the center that includes Chips and Matt’s in August 2015. Forty neighbors from East Dallas gathered at Matt’s Rancho Martinez to hear from representatives of the owners of the Skillman Live Oak Center and Andy’s Frozen Custard about the plans to rezone several parcels and locate an Andy’s Custard on the site.
