D. PP23-0001 Consider a request by Denton Independent School District for a Preliminary Plat of the Riney Road Elementary School Addition. The 15.135-acre site is generally located on the south side of Riney Road, approximately 560 feet east of Bonnie Brae Street, in the City of Denton, Denton County, Texas. (PP21-0001, Riney Elementary, Julie Wyatt).
I am 100% in favor of a new elementary school. However, this is not the location for it. This area is already severely congested. The new apartments and housing editions aren't even completed, but once they are, there will be even more traffic on Bonnie Brae. Riney Road and Bonnie Brae would both have to be widened to accommodate for the cars. There would need to be traffic lights or roundabouts installed, instead of 4 way stop signs. I'm not in favor of this location.
