Commission recommends temporary use permit for construction trailer at Byron Nelson High School site

The Trophy Club Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended that the Town Council approve a temporary use permit (TUP) to allow one construction trailer, a roll‑off dumpster and temporary fencing on Lot 2 (2775 Bobcat Boulevard), a Northwest Independent School District property associated with Byron Nelson High School.

Matt, the planning staff member, said Section 1402.251 requires contractors to obtain a TUP for construction trailers and offices and that the applicant provided a site plan showing the trailer location. Staff’s main review focus was that the trailer sit entirely on the applicant’s property and not encroach on easements; staff recommended approval as presented. The applicant requested the trailer remain through May 2027.

A commissioner asked whether the trailer could be set immediately; staff said the commission is making a recommendation only and that construction access would follow Town Council approval. Commissioners asked about temporary power for the trailer; staff said that detail was not provided in the presentation. The commission moved and seconded a motion to recommend approval; the motion carried unanimously. The recommendation will be forwarded to the Town Council for final action.

Why it matters: The permit governs construction staging and site safety on a school property and includes a requested duration through May 2027; the council’s approval will determine when staging can begin on site.
