          [a.  Consider a request by Hemphill, LLC by Faulk & Foster proposing a Monopole Telecommunications Tower. The site is located at 1102 North Country Club Road in District 1.  Consider and take appropriate action on the application of Hemphill, LLC by Faulk & Foster, requesting approval of 1) an Amendment to Planned Development (PD) District 03-52 for Community Retail Uses; 2) a Detail Plan for an Antenna, Commercial Use and 3) a Specific Use Provision (SUP) for an Antenna, Commercial Use. This property is located at 1102 North Country Club Road. (District 1) (File Z 23-43) ]
ON TO ITEM SIX. HOLD PUBLIC HEARINGS ON THE FOLLOWING ZONING CASES. FIRST UP, TONIGHT IS ITEM SIX, A CONSIDER REQUEST BY HEMPHILL, LLC, BY FALK AND FOSTER PROPOSING A MONOPOLE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER. THE SITE IS LOCATED AT 1102 NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD IN DISTRICT ONE. ANGELA GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. OUR FIRST CASE, THE APPLICANT PROPOSES A FREESTANDING MONOPOLE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER. THE LOCATION IS 1102 NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD AND IT IS 0.601 ACRES. THE ZONING IS PLANNED. DEVELOPMENT. DISTRICT 03-52. THE MAP SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THIS REQUEST AND THE CITY AND THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED ALONG COUNTRY CLUB AND CASTLE DRIVE. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IDENTIFIES THIS AREA AS NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS. THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP FOR THE ENVISIONED GARLAND 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IDENTIFIES THE AREA'S NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, WHICH PROVIDE A MIX OF RETAIL SERVICES AND COMMUNITY GATHERING PLACES. THIS CENTER SHOULD BE APPROPRIATELY SCALED TO ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL AREAS. THIS TYPE OF CENTER IS PREDOMINANTLY, BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY, NONRESIDENTIAL. 
          NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS ARE SERVED BY LOCAL ROADS AND TRANSIT ROUTES. THE PHOTOS SHOW A VIEW OF THE PROPOSED LEASE AREA LOOKING TO THE EAST, LOOKING WEST FROM THE SUBJECT PROPERTY ACROSS NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD. THE VIEW LOOKING NORTH DOWN COUNTRY CLUB ROAD AND LOOKING SOUTH DOWN NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD. THE OVERALL SITE SHOWS HERE. IF MY MOUTH CATCHES UP THERE, THE LOCATION THAT WILL BE USED FOR THIS REQUEST AND THEN A CLOSER VIEW ALLOWS YOU TO SEE THE ENCLOSURE AS WELL AS THE GATES THAT WILL BE HERE AS WELL. WE ALSO SHOW SOME OF THE OTHER EXISTING TOWERS IN THE GENERAL AREA WITH THE RED PEN BEING THE LOCATION OF THE REQUEST, AND THEN THE LOCATIONS THAT ARE IN THE ADJACENT AREAS. WE ALSO HAVE DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT THE TOWER ELEVATION, WHICH I'LL SPEAK ABOUT AND THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR CARRIERS ON THAT. ON THAT POLE. AND THEN A CLOSER VIEW OF THE SCREENING FOR THE GATE AND THE ENCLOSURE. 
          THE APPLICANT PROPOSES AN 80 FOOT TALL MONOPOLE TOWER WITH ANTENNAS ALONGSIDE GROUND EQUIPMENT WITHIN THE 0.601 ACRE LEASE AREA, PER THE APPLICANT'S NARRATIVE, THE INTERSECTION OF NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD AND CASTLE DRIVE IS A BUSY AND GROWING NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL CENTER. THE GROWTH IN THIS AREA DEMANDS ROBUST INFRASTRUCTURE, INCLUDING WIRELESS INFRASTRUCTURE. THE GDC DOES NOT ALLOW A FREE STANDING COMMERCIAL ANTENNA SUPPORT STRUCTURE WITHIN 
          [00:15:05]
5000FT FROM ANOTHER WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS ANTENNA, THE NEAREST TOWER IS 680FT AWAY FROM THE PROPOSED TOWER, WITH THE NEXT CLOSEST BEING 4739FT AWAY. THEREFORE, THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THROUGH THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT TO ALLOW THE TOWER TO BE LOCATED CLOSER THAN THE 5000FT■S, I'M SORRY, 5000FT FROM AN EXISTING TOWER. DUE TO CELLULAR COVERAGE ISSUES, A SPECIFIC USE PROVISION IS REQUIRED FOR AN ANTENNA. COMMERCIAL TYPE TWO. IN THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 03-52 FOR COMMUNITY RETAIL USES. THE APPLICANT PROPOSES AN 80 FOOT MONOPOLE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER WITH A FIVE FOOT LIGHTNING ROD ABOVE THE TOWER. THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A TIME PERIOD OF 40 YEARS. THE SCP PERIOD GUIDELINES RECOMMEND BETWEEN 20 AND 30 YEARS FOR A CELLULAR TOWER. ANTENNA. EQUIPMENT USE JUST FOR CLARITY, ANTENNA TYPE. COMMERCIAL TYPE ONE IS DEFINED AS AN ANTENNA AND ASSOCIATED MAST OF TOWER OR TOWER, OR A FACILITY FOR TRANSMISSION OR RECEPTION OF VOICE OR DATA BY RADIO OR TELEVISION OF A LOCAL BUSINESS. COMMUNICATIONS WITHIN A BUSINESS ANTENNA. COMMERCIAL TYPE TWO IS DEFINED AS AN ANTENNA AND ASSOCIATED MAST OR TOWER, OR A FACILITY FOR TRANSMISSION OR RECEPTION OF VOICE OR DATA BY RADIO OR TELEVISION FOR ALL COMMUNICATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE DEFINED UNDER ANTENNA, COMMERCIAL TYPE ONE OR ANTENNA PRIVATE. STAFF RECOMMENDATION WAS APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 03-52 FOR COMMUNITY RETAIL USES A DETAILED PLAN FOR AN ANTENNA, COMMERCIAL USE, AND A SPECIFIC USE PROVISION FOR AN ANTENNA. 
          COMMERCIAL USE. ON JUNE 24TH, 2024, WITH A 9 TO 0 VOTE, THE PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDED RECOMMENDED DENIAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 03-52 FOR COMMUNITY RETAIL USES. A DETAILED PLAN FOR AN ANTENNA, COMMERCIAL USE, AND A SPECIFIC USE PROVISION FOR AN ANTENNA. COMMERCIAL USE. FOR THIS PARTICULAR CASE, WE MAILED 41 NOTIFICATIONS. WE RECEIVED TWO WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA IN FAVOR, ONE WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, AND ONE OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, FOR A TOTAL OF FOUR RESPONSES. VERY GOOD. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ON THIS ITE? COUNSELOR DUTTON, CAN YOU GIVE US A LITTLE MORE INSIGHT ON, WHY STAFF WENT FOR RECOMMENDING APPROVAL WITH SUCH A SMALL SPAC, BETWEEN THE TOWERS? YES, I THINK IN OUR OPINION, WE FELT THAT THE, OPPORTUNITY FOR THE CELL TOWER, THERE WAS NO, REASON WHY WE WOULD NOT ALLOW THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR AN ADDITIONAL CELL TOWER IN THE AREA IF THE APPLICANT FELT THAT IT WAS JUSTIFIED. OKAY. THANK YOU, OKA. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? I SEE NONE. THANK YOU, MADAM SECRETARY. I BELIEVE WE HAVE THE APPLICANT HERE THIS EVENING. YES, SIR. THANK YOU. MAYOR, MR. RALPH WYNGARDEN, SIR, IF WHEN YOU GET UP HERE, IF YOU CAN GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD AND YOU'LL HAVE TEN MINUTES TO MAKE A PRESENTATION AND OR ANSWER QUESTIONS AFTERWARDS. IF NECESSARY, WE WILL OFFER TIME FOR REBUTTAL. OKAY. GOOD EVENING. AND THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF COUNCIL. MY NAME IS RALPH WEINGARTEN FROM FALCON FOSTER AT 1428 TRAILSIDE COURT NORTHWEST IN GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN. I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT, HEMPHILL LLC. AS WAS NOTED, THIS LOCATION IS IN PD ZERO 5 OR 0 352 WITH A BASE DISTRICT OF CR COMMERCIAL RETAIL, AGAIN, THIS IS A BUSY INTEECTION. THERE'S A FAMILY DOLLAR TO THE NORTH OF THIS PROPERTY. THERE'S A GAS STATION ON THE NORTHWEST SIDE AND ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THIS INTERSECTION, AND THEN ON THE SOUTHWEST PART OF THIS INTERSECTION, IS THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF A OF A ELECTRIC SUBSTATION. AND THEN UP AND DOWN NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROA, THERE'S, TALL POLES ABOUT SIMILAR TO THE SIZE OF WHAT'S PROPOSED FOR ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION LINES, THERE'S ALSO THAT EXISTING SBA TOWER IN THE VICINITY, THE ATTORNEY BOB FRANCIS FOR SBA IS HERE TONIGHT, AND HE'S BEEN WORKING HARD TO PUSH AGAINST THIS TOWER, WE'VE GOT AT&T COMMITTED TO GO ON THIS TOWER. WE BELIEVE SBA WOULD LIKE AT&T, AT&T TO BE ON THEIR TOWER INSTEAD, BY WAY OF BACKGROUND, THE LIST OF USES IN THIS PD IN EXHIBIT B SECTION, ROMAN NUMERAL FIVE, A OF THE PD, ALLOWS 
          [00:20:07]
ANTENNA COMMERCIAL TYPE ONE AND ANTENNA COMMERCIAL TYPE TWO. THE TYPE ONE DOES NOT REQUIRE A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT, AND THE TYPE TWO DOES REQUIRE A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT, THE CURRENT GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE DOES NOT USE THOSE CLASSIFICATIONS FOR TOWERS. SO WE LOOKED FOR AN ANALOGOUS DIVIDING LINE AS TO WHAT WOULD DIVIDE BETWEEN THE NEED FOR A SPECIAL SPECIFIC USE PROVISION AND THE NEED NOT TO HAVE ONE. AND IN IN GDC DIVISION FIVE, SECTION 2.6 4B1, IT DOES DIVIDE SITES BETWEEN UP TO 85FT IN HEIGHT, WHICH ARE NOT REQUIRING A SPECIAL USE PROVISION, AND SITES EXCEEDING 85FT IN HEIGHT, WHICH DO REQUIRE A SPECIFIC USE OR A PROVISION, FROM THE BEGINNING, WE'VE DESIGNED THIS SITE NOT TO EXCEED 85FT AND TO QUALIFY FOR APPROVAL WITH ONLY A DETAIL PLAN AND NOT REQUIRE THE SPECIFIC USE PROVISION, WE RAN THAT INTERPRETATION BY. STAFF EARLY ON AT THE BEGINNING, BACK IN SEPTEMBER 2023, WHEN WE STARTED THE PROCESS, AT THAT TIME, WE WERE ADVISED WE WOULD ONLY NEED APPROVAL OF A DETAIL PLAN AND WERE INSTRUCTED JUST TO CHECK THE FIRST BOX ON THE APPLICATION, WHICH IS THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT DETAIL PLAN BOX. WE WERE NOT INSTRUCTED TO APPLY FOR A SPECIFIC USE PROVISION, IT WAS ONLY IN MAY OF 2024, EIGHT MONTHS LATER, THAT STAFF INDICATED A NEW INTERPRETATION THAT THIS PROJECT IS AN ANTENNA COMMERCIAL TYPE TWO THAT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC USE PROVISION. I SUSPECT THAT WAS AT LEAST IN PART DUE TO SOME PRESSURE FROM SBA'S ATTORNEY, AT THE PLAN COMMISSION ON JUNE 24TH. IT WAS THIS NEW INTERPRETATION THAT WON THE DAY, ALONG WITH THE PRESENTATION BY MR. FRANCIS, THAT THE SBA TOWER IS THE ONLY OPTION THAT SHOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THIS AREA, WE DISAGREE WITH THIS NEW INTERPRETATION AND REMAIN CONVINCED THAT THE LANGUAGE OF PD 03-52 BEST CORRESPONDS TO THE CURRENT DIVIDING LINE IN THE GDC BETWEEN TOWERS UP TO 85FT AND TOWERS EXCEEDING 85FT. WE STILL BELIEVE THIS USE IS ALLOWED BY RIGHT, WITH ONLY A DETAILED PLAN APPROVAL NEEDED, AS WAS THE UNDERSTANDING FOR EIGHT MONTHS. 
          HOWEVER, EVEN IF YOU ASSUME THAT SUPP PROVISION IS NEEDED, NOWHERE DOES THAT INCORPORATE THE CURRENT GDC LANGUAGE. ABOUT A 5000 FOOT TOWER SEPARATION INTO THE LANGUAGE OF THE EXISTING PD. ALL OF PD 03-52 LIES WITHIN 5000FT OF THE EXISTING SBA TOWER. IF YOU WERE TO APPLY THAT SEPARATION DISTANCE REQUIREMENT, THERE WOULD BE NO PLACE IN THE PD WHERE A TOWER COULD BE PROPOSED. IT WOULD EFFECTIVELY ERASE THIS USE FROM THE LIST OF ALLOWED USES IN THE PD. IN OUR OPINION, AN INTERPRETATION THAT ALLOWS A TOWER BUILT NEARBY AFTER THE DATE OF THE ORIGINAL PD TO CHANGE THE USES ALLOWED WITHIN THAT PD IS NOT AN APPROPRIATE INTERPRETATION. SO WE WOULD URGE YOU NOT TO APPLY THE 5000 FOOT SEPARATION DISTANCE. IN THIS CASE, I'D ALSO LIKE TO TOUCH BRIEFLY ON THE SBA MONOPOLE ITSELF. MR. FRANCIS REPRESENTED AT THE JUNE 24 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING THAT THEIR MONOPOLE WAS 85FT HIGH. WE HAD BEEN PROCEEDING UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE SBA POLE WAS ONLY 65FT TALL, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEIR FCC REGISTRATION SAYS. THE FCC ANTENNA STRUCTURE REGISTRATION 1258143 STATES THE OVERALL HEIGHT ABOVE THE GROUND WITHOUT APPURTENANCES IS 19.8M, WHICH IS 65FT. BECAUSE OF THIS DISCREPANCY, HEMPHILL ASKED A CREW TO FIELD VERIFY THE HEIGHT OF THE SBA TOWER. THEY FOUND THAT THE ACTUAL TOWER HEIGHT IS 89FT TALL, APPROXIMATELY, AND THE ANTENNA TIP HEIGHT TO BE APPROXIMATELY 97FT ABOVE GROUND LEVEL. CONSEQUENTLY, THEIR TOWER IS NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THEIR FCC REGISTRATION IN ADDITION, THIS HEIGHT IS NOT COMPLIANT WITH THEIR FAA APPROVAL. THE FAA DETERMINATION LETTER FROM THE AERONAUTICAL STUDY 2000 AND SEVEN. DASH ASW2946-0E IS KEYED TO A TOTAL TIP HEIGHT OF 85FT ABOVE GROUND LEVEL AT 89FT. THEIR MONOPOLE IS FOUR FEET TOO TALL, AND AT 97FT, THEIR ANTENNA TIP HEIGHT EXCEEDS THE FAA APPROVAL BY 12FT. SINCE THE SITE IS NOT COMPLIANT WITH EITHER, THE FCC REGISTRATION OR THE FAA REGISTRATION, WE ALSO ASSUME THERE MAY BE ISSUES WITH THEIR SHPO NEPA APPROVALS, WHICH IS THE ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORICAL 
          [00:25:02]
OFFICE PIECE OF THE REGULATORY APPROVAL AND POSSIBLY WITH THEIR COMPLIANCE WITH CITY OF GARLAND SUPP APPROVAL. A NON COMPLIANT SITE IS NOT A VALID CO-LOCATION OPTION. THERE'S NO REASON TO MAKE THIS A ZERO SUM GAME. THERE'S ENOUGH DEMAND IN THE FUTURE TO JUSTIFY TWO POLES IN THIS AREA. THERE'S NO HARM TO THE VISUAL CONTEXT. I COUNTED AT LEAST 30 ELECTRIC ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION TOWERS ALONG NORTH COUNTRY CLUB ROAD. SBA MAKES 31 POLES. THIS ONE WOULD MAKE 32 POLES IN A LONG IF A LONG LINE OF TRANSMISSION POLES IS NOT CAUSING AN ISSUE VISUALLY, ANOTHER POLE IN THIS AREA WE DON'T THINK MAKES A TREMENDOUS IMPACT, THAT'S PROBABLY ALSO WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN SIGNIFICANT OPPOSITION TO THIS PROJECT, OTHER THAN THE PROPERTY OWNER WHERE THE TOWER LOCATION SITS. WE WOULD RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU FOLLOW THE INTERPRETATION THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LANGUAGE OF THE PD AND NOT APPLY THE 5000 FOOT SEPARATION REQUIREMENT. THE PROPOSED HEMPHILL SITE SHOULD BE APPROVED BECAUSE THE PD ALLOWS IT, THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. VERY GOOD. SIR. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT, COUNCILMEMBER HEDRICK THANK YOU. MAYOR. ONE QUESTION I HAD IS, SOMETHING THAT WAS BROUGHT UP DURING THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING. WAS THE NEED FOR THIS TOWER BASED UPON A HEAT MAP OF CELL PHONE COVERAGE? DO YOU HAVE THAT? HAVE YOU PROVIDED THAT STUDY, MR. MAYOR? YES, SIR. THAT QUESTION IS REALLY NOT RELEVANT FOR THE LAND USE, ANALYSIS IN THIS CASE, IT'S A MARKET QUESTION WHERE THERE'S ENOUGH DEMAND IN THE MARKET, AND WE'RE NOT HERE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THERE'S ENOUGH DEMAND IN THE MARKET TO JUSTIFY THE USE. WE'RE HERE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE USE IS APPROPRIATE FOR THIS PARTICULAR LOCATION. BUT DOES THAT RELATE TO IT BENEFITING THE SYSTEM GARLAND, FOR HAVING ADEQUATE COVERAGE? IT DOES RELATE. BUT AGAIN, WE DON'T WE DON'T ADDRESS MARKET ISSUES. IT'S LIKE SAYING IS A GROCERY STORE GOOD FOR THIS? EVEN THOUGH IT MAY BE ALLOWED UNDER THE ZONING ORDINANCE OR IT MAY REQUIRE A PD. WE DON'T SAY, WEL, THE MARKET WOULDN'T SUPPORT A GROCERY STORE. WE'D SAY, THIS IS A BAD LOCATION FOR THAT GROCERY STORE. IT'S THE SAME PRINCIPLE HERE. OKAY, I WITHDRAW MY QUESTION, MAYOR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR. ANY ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I SEE NONE, THANK YOU SIR. MADAM SECRETARY, YOU CAN CALL OUR. I BELIEVE WE HAVE A SPEAKER ON THIS ITEM. YES, SIR. BEV FRANCIS AND MR. FRANCIS, BEFORE YOU GET STARTED, I REALIZE YOU HAVE A PRESENTATION. YES, SIR. IS IT? QUEUED UP. I AM BRINGING IT UP RIGHT NOW, MAYOR. 
          ME, MOVE IT OVER. SLIDESHOW AND THERE WE GO. OKAY, BEFORE YOU GET STARTED, I WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES. ABSOLUTELY. AND IF YOU'LL GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, YOUR THREE MINUTES STARTS. THANK YOU. BEV FRANCIS, 112 EAST PECAN, SAN ANTONIO. I'M THE ATTORNEY THAT REPRESENTS SBA COMMUNICATIONS AND WHICH OWNS AND OPERATES AND HAS OWNED AND OPERATED THE TOWER, WHICH IS ONLY 680FT AWAY FROM THE PROPOSED TEMPLE SITE. 680FT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THE DREADED 220 YARD DASH THAT WE ALL HATED IN HIGH SCHOOL. THAT'S HOW CLOSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT NOW DURING THE MEETING AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION. IF YOU'VE REVIEWED THE PRESENTATIONS AND THE VIDEO, WE WERE ACCUSED OF MISREPRESENTING TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION THAT OUR TOWER IS A 65FT ITEAD OF 85FT. THAT IS INCREDIBLY OFFENSIVE TO A PUBLIC COMPANY AND TO AN ATTORNEY WITH OVER ALMOST 50 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE, ACTUALLY, HEMPHILL'S NEIGHBORING MAP THAT THEY PROVIDED YOU SHOWS ON ITS FACE. OUR TOWER IS 85FT, THE CROWN TOWER IS 71 70FT, AND YOUR TOWER IS 214 43FT. SO THE ACCUSATIONS ARE JUST LUDICROUS. AND INSPECT INSULTING BY THEIR OWN DOCUMENTATION. EXCUSE ME, THE ASR THAT HE'S REFERRING TO, FOR THE SBA TOWER SHOWS A 84.93FT HEIGHT OF THE TOWER AND IT SHOWS ALSO AS HE REFERRED TO THE, THE FAA REPORT OF IT BEING AN 85 FOOT TOWER. NOW, SINCE WE HAVE MR. HEDRICK HERE, A LICENSED, PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER, HE CAN POINT TO THE SIGNIFICANCE OF WHEN A P PUTS A SEAL ON A DOCUMENT. AND HERE IS THE TOWER DRAWINGS FOR OUR TOWER SHOWING AN 85 FOOT TOWER SEALED BY THE ENGINEER AS BEING ACCURATE WITH A 75 FOOT AVAILABLE RAD CENTER, WHICH HE SAYS AT&T NEEDS. SO IT'S AVAILABLE AGAIN, ANOTHER SEALED DOCUMENT. THIS IS A STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS REPORT. IT SHOWS THE SITE WAS 87.9FT. AGAIN IT'S NOT 65FT. AND THAT WAS A VERY, VERY MISSTATED. AND WE 
          [00:30:08]
OUGHT TO GIVE HIM THE OPPORTUNITY TO RETRACT THAT SINCE IT WAS GIVEN PUBLICLY. THE PLAN REPORT COMMISSION, CONSIDERED THAT ESSENTIALLY THAT THE THEY'RE SAYING THAT THEY NEED TO DISREGARD THE 5000 FOOT BECAUSE OF DUE TO CELLULAR COVERAGE. WELL THEY DID NOT PERMIT PROVIDE RF COVERAGE MAPS. AND I QUESTION THE CITY ATTORNEY'S POSITION BECAUSE IF THEY'RE SAYING AND STAFF REPORT SAYS THAT THERE'S A COVERAGE ISSUE, HOW DO THEY SUPPORT IT? HOW DO THEY JUSTIFY IT? THERE'S NO DOCUMENTATION. THERE WERE NO, TESTIMONY FROM AT&T THAT THIS IS A NEEDED. AND IN FACT, THE CITY'S OWN TECHNICAL REVIEW MEETING. COMMENTS SHEET NUMBER TWO SAYS VERIFY IF THERE ARE ANY CARRIERS SELECTED AT THE SITE. WELL, IF YOU'RE NOT INTERESTED IN WHO IS A TENANT, THEN WHY WAS THAT REQUIRED OF MR, WEINGARTEN ALSO, HOW DOES THIS LOCATION SELECTED NEED SHOW THE SELECTED NEED FOR THE TOWER? INTERESTINGLY, AT&T IS I'M GOING TO NEED YOU TO SUM UP, SUM UP. OKAY. THEN LET'S GO TO THIS AND SHOW YOU THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF THIS. PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE. SINCE I ONLY HAD THREE MINUTES TO GO THROUGH AND LOOK AT THE SLIDES, 27 THROUGH 34, THIS IS THE EFFECTS ON COMMUNITIES WHEN TOWER COMPANIES DO NOT RESPECT TOWER SEPARATION. AND TOWER SEPARATION IS NOT ENFORCED. AND THAT'S WHY IT'S SO CRITICAL THAT THESE REGULATIONS BE DESIGNED AND ENFORCED AND RESPECTED BY THE TOWER COMPANIES. THANK YOU FOR THEIR TIME. AND I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY AND REQUEST, YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION FOR DENIAL. VERY GOOD. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE SPEAKER? I SEE NONE. 
          THANK YOU. AND AT THIS POINT, I DON'T THINK WE'LL NEED TO CALL THE APPLICANT BACK UP. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? SEEING NONE. COUNSELOR BASS, THIS IN YOUR DISTRICT, SIR. THANK YOU. MAYOR I WOULD LIKE TO. I WOULD LIKE TO THANK EVERYBODY WHO CAME AND SPOKE TONIGHT. I UNDERSTAND THAT, EVERYBODY IS VERY PASSIONATE ABOUT THEIR POSITIONS AND, WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS WE CAN'T LET THE EMOTIONS AND PASSION, PASSIONS OF APPLICANTS OR OF THOSE OPPOSED, AFFECT OUR DECISIONS, SO I HAVE SOME NOTES HERE I'D LIKE TO REVIEW HERE. SO THE COUNCIL'S TASK TONIGHT IS TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE PROPOSED SITE IS APPROPRIATE FOR A CELL PHONE TOWER. WHILE DELIBERATING, WE MUST CONSIDER WHETHER THE USE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO PROVIDE UTILITIES CONSISTENT WITH NEW TECHNOLOGIES, INCLUDING RELIABLE 5G ACCESS TO ITS CITIZENS, AS WELL AS TO WHAT EXTENT THE USE WILL BENEFIT NEARBY RESIDENTS, THE CITY, THE CITY WILL NOT BE MAKING LAND USE DECISIONS BASED UPON COMPETITIVE MATTERS OF PRIVATE COMPANIES. SO THAT BEING SAID, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. OKAY, I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMEMBER BASS, TO APPROVE WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILMEMBER WILLIAMS, SEEING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION, MADAM SECRETARY COULD YOU PREPARE THE VOTE FOR US, PLEASE? AND COUNCI, THE MOTION IS TO APPROVE AND DISPLAY THE VOTE, AND THAT IS THAT PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU. SIR MOVING ON TO OUR NEXT CASE, ITEM SIX B, CONSIDER A REQUEST BY SPIRES ENGINEERING 
          [b.  Consider a request by Spiars Engineering proposing a change in zoning to the Single-Family Attached (SFA) District. The site is located at 2302 West Campbell Road in District 7. Consider and take appropriate action on the application of Spiars Engineering, requesting approval of a Change in Zoning from Planned Development (PD) District 22-20 for Single-Family Attached (SFA) Uses to Single-Family Attached (SFA) District.

PROPOSING A CHANGE IN ZONING TO THE SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DISTRICT. THIS SITE IS LOCATED AT 2302 WEST CAMPBELL ROAD IN DISTRICT SEVEN. CASE Z 24 DASH 12. THE APPLICANT PROPOSES A STRAIGHT ZONING CHANGE FROM PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 2220 TO SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED. THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 2302 WEST CAMPBELL ROAD AND IS 8.18 ACRES. THE ZONING IS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. DISTRICT 22 DASH 20. THE MAP SHOWS THE LOCATION WITHIN THE CITY AND THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY ALONG CAMPBELL ROAD AND SHILOH ROAD. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IDENTIFIES THIS AREA AS COMPACT NEIGHBORHOODS. COMPACT NEIGHBORHOODS PROVIDE AREAS OF MODERATE INCREASES IN RESIDENTIAL DENSITY, INCLUDING SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED AND SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED HOUSING. IT EXPANDS HOUSING OPTIONS THROUGH INFILL AND REDEVELOPMENT WHILE CONTINUING WALKABLE DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS. THESE AREAS PROVIDE TRANSITIONS BETWEEN TRADITIONAL RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS AND HIGHER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, AND THESE AREAS ACCOMMODATE USES SUCH AS THE CONVENIENCE STORE, CONVENIENCE RETAIL EXCUSE ME, 
          [00:35:06]
GOODS AND SERVICES, OFFICE SPACE, AND PUBLIC SERVICES. THE ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER AND SCALE OF THESE AREAS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT. THE PROPOSED ZONING IS GENERALLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. PHOTOS SHOW THE VIEW OF THE PROPOSED SITE LOOKING WEST FROM NORTH SHILOH ROAD. LOOKING EAST FROM THE SITE ACROSS NORTH SHILOH ROAD, THE VIEW LOOKING NORTH AND EAST FROM WEST CAMPBELL ROAD, LOOKING SOUTH DOWN NORTH SHILOH ROAD. THE REQUEST IS A TRADITIONAL REZONING WITHOUT THE FORMATION OF A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. THESE REQUESTS DO NOT REQUIRE CONCEPT PLAN APPROVAL TO COMMENCE OR DIRECT DEVELOPMENT. THE DEVELOPMENT IS DEPENDENT ON THE STANDARDS SET FORTH BY THE GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, AND THE GOALS AND POLICIES ESTABLISHED WITHIN THE ENVISION GARLAND 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THIS CHANGE IN ZONING IS NOT INTENDED TO RESTRICT USES OR SECURE DEVELOPMENT PERFORMANCES BEYOND WHAT IS PERMITTED WITHIN THE PROPOSED ZONING DISTRICT AND THE GDC. ACCORDINGLY, THE GDC REQUIRES CAREFUL CONSIDERATION AS TO HOW CLOSELY THE PROPOSED DISTRICT FOLLOWS THE POLICIES OF THE ENVISION GARLAND 2030 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND TO WHAT DEGREE THE REZONING WILL AFFECT SURROUNDING AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENT. STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL OF A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. DISTRICT 22 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED USES TO SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DISTRICT. ON JULY 8TH, 2024, WITH A 9 TO 0 VOTE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 22 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED USES TO SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DISTRICT. WE MAILED 32 NOTIFICATIONS FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT. ONE WAS RECEIVED WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA IN FAVOR. TWO WERE RECEIVED WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, AND 25 WERE RECEIVED OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, FOR A TOTAL OF 28 RESPONSES RECEIVED. VERY GOOD. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ON THIS ITEM? COUNSELOR WILLIAMS THANK YOU MAYOR. GOOD EVENING, MISS ANDREA. GOOD EVENING. CAN YOU BRIEFLY. I LOOKED THROUGH SOME IN THE FILE. CAN YOU BRIEFLY SUMMARIZE, GIVE ME A BREAKDOWN AGAIN OF THE RESPONSES AND THE 25. CAN YOU CAN YOU BRIEFLY SUMMARIZE THE, THE RATIONALE? SOME OF THE COMMENTS ON THE 25 BRIEFLY FOR ME, PLEASE. BRIEFLY, THERE WERE CONCERNS ABOUT TRAFFIC AND ABOUT OPEN SPACE TAKING AWAY OPEN SPACE OR ACCESS TO THE VIEWS FOR, USE BY THE RESIDENTS AS A RECREATIONAL SPACE, SOME OF THE COMMENTS MAY HAVE THOUGHT THAT THIS OPEN SPACE SHOULD BE RETAINED, FOR ANOTHER USE. AND HOW MANY AGAIN, HOW MANY OF THOSE 25 WERE WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA? WE RECEIVED ONE THAT WAS WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION IN FAVOR. AND TWO WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST. SO THE OTHER 25 WERE OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA. IS THAT CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT. THANK YOU MA'AM. THANK YOU MAYOR. VERY GOOD, COUNCILMEMBER, DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUKE, I, SEVERAL PEOPLE IN THE IN THE LETTERS ALLUDED TO THE FACT OR ALLUDED THAT THIS WAS A PARK. IS THIS A PARK? IT IS NOT A PARK. THANK YOU. IT IS PARK ADJACENT. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ON THIS ITE? I SEE NONE, THANK YOU. ANGELA MADAM SECRETARY, IF YOU CAN CALL, I BELIEVE WE HAVE THE APPLICANT HERE. YES, SIR. THANK YOU. MAYOR MAXWELL FISHER. MR. FISHER, I KNOW YOU KNOW THE ROUTINE, BUT I HAVE TO SAY IT ANYWAY. IF YOU CAN GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, AND YOU WILL HAVE TEN MINUTES FOR YOUR PRESENTATION AND OR ANSWER QUESTIONS. I ALSO HAVE A PRESENTATIONI BELIEVE ANGELA IS GOING TO FIX THAT. ALL RIGHT, MAYOR, LIMIT COUNCIL MAXWELL FISHER WITH ZONE DEV 2502 GRANDVIEW DRIVE, RICHARDSON, TEXAS, 75080, REPRESENTING LEON CAPITAL GROUP. WE ALSO HAVE OUR LEON CAPITAL GROUP TEAM TO ANSWER QUESTIONS I CAN ANSWER, INCLUDING OUR OUR CIVIL ENGINEER, WE ARE EXCITED TO PRESENT THIS TO YOU TONIGHT. THE PRESENTATION IS SET UP, WHERE THE MULTIFAMILY CASE, WHICH IS THE SECOND CASE, IS FIRST. SO I'LL BE JUMPING AROUND A BIT, DUE TO THE ORDER, FOR THE COUNCIL. SO LEON CAPITAL GROUP IS A DALLAS BASED COMPANY. THEY BUILD HIGH QUALITY DEVELOPMENTS IN MANY SECTORS, THEY HAVE A STRONG REPUTATION. THEY TRY TO 
          [00:40:01]
ADAPT THEIR DEVELOPMENTS TO THE SURROUNDING AREA. AND YOU'LL SEE THAT WITH THIS PROPOSAL. SO WE HAVE TWO REQUESTS TONIGHT. THE FIRST REQUEST BEFORE YOU IS THE WESTERN PIECE. THAT PIECE IS ZONED PD FOR TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, AND THIS IS WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY OR WHAT'S CURRENTLY APPROVED IN THE PROPERTY. IT'S TWO PDS FOR TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT FOR SALE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENTS ON BOTH PROPERTIES, FOR THE WESTERN PIECE, WOULD BE A BY RIGHT DEVELOPMENT, SO WE WOULD BE USUALLY YOU'RE ASKING FOR A PD AND ASKING FOR VARIANCES. IN THIS CASE IT'S THE OPPOSITE. THERE WAS A PD APPROVED FOR TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT AND IT HAD A SLEW OF VARIANCES. AND SO, THE DEVELOPER BEFORE DROPPED THE PROPERTY WHEN IT WASN'T FEASIBLE TO DEVELOP WHAT WAS ACTUALLY DESIGNED. AND THEN ANOTHER DEVELOPER CAME IN EVEN AFTER THAT AND TRIED TO DEVELOP A TOWNHOME. AND THEY ALSO DROPPED THE PROJECT. AND WHEN LEON CAPITAL PICKED IT UP, LOOKING AT BOTH SITES COLLECTIVELY IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS SITE ECONOMICS WORK, TO DO THE TOWNHOMES ON THE WEST AND MULTIFAMILY ON THE EAST, THEY NEED THE MULTIFAMILY, TO MAKE THE MARGINS WORK TO DO BOTH DEVELOPMENTS. SO YES, THEY'RE SEPARATE CASES, BUT IT'S CRITICAL THAT, BOTH BOTH ARE APPROVED, TO MAKE THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT JUST BUT TO STICK TO THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, THE, THE PROPOSED TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, IT'S STILL, ALLOWS PD ALLOWS FOR TOWNHOME THE PROPOSED WOULD BE TOWNHOMES SO IT STICKS WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. ALIGNS WITH IT WITH THE COMPACT NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGNATION. SO WE WOULD BE STAYING WITH THAT PROPOSAL. I'M GOING TO SKIP THROUGH THESE MULTIFAMILY PICTURES AND GO TO THE TOWNHOUSE. HERE'S THE DEVELOPMENT SITE. IT IS PARK ADJACENT. I LIKE THAT TERMINOLOGY, WE WILL LIKE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE VIEWS OF THE PARK FOR OUR RESIDENTS AND INCREASE VALUE FOR THAT DEVELOPMENT, BUT WE WILL NOT BE INTRUDING ON ON THE PARK. WE WOULD JUST BE ALLOWING ACCESS FOR OUR RESIDENTS TO CONNECT TO THE TRAIL. WE ARE OVER 850FT FROM THE NEAREST HOME IN CAMELOT, WE MET WITH THE CAMELOT PRESIDENT, JOE THOMAS, AND HOA MEMBERS, AND THEN THEY, RELAYED INFORMATION TO ANY INTERESTED NEIGHBORS. SO WE DID REACH OUT TO CAMELOT, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE FAIRLY FAR AWAY SINCE, WE ARE ADJACENT, SOMEWHAT ADJACENT. SO THIS IS THE PROPOSAL. IT IS A BY RIGHT PLAN, BUT WE CAN GIVE YOU AS MUCH DETAILS AS WE KNOW. 
          IT'S, IT'S SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED, SO THEY'RE ALL FOR SALE. TOWNHOMES, THEY ARE 60 RESIDENTIAL UNITS, 14 BUILDINGS. THERE'LL BE A PRICE POINT OF APPROXIMATELY 450,000. THEY'RE BE ALL TWO STORY FRONT ENTRY DEVELOPMENT BETWEEN 1900 AND 2300FT■S IN AREA. SO IT'S A GRET PROJECT OR A GREAT SIZE BETWEEN APARTMENTS AND A CONVENTIONAL SINGLE FAMILY HOME. SO MAYBE A SMALL FAMILY COULD JUST BE, EMPTY NESTERS, YOUNG PROFESSIONALS, SOMEBODY WHO WANTS MORE OF A SINGLE FAMILY STYLE. BUT, SOMETHING OTHER THAN AN APARTMENT. THIS WILL BE HOA MAINTAINED. SO ALL THE COMMON AREAS THAT ARE REQUIRED WITH THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT WILL HAVE LANDSCAPE, LEISURE AREAS, SEATING AREAS, BENCHES, PICNIC TABLES. AND THEN, LIKE I MENTIONED, EARLY RESIDENT ACCESS TO THE PARK. NO VARIANCES OR DEVIATIONS. WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR ANY WITH THIS REQUEST. WHAT WE FOUND OUT THROUGH WE SPENT A LOT MORE TIME ON THIS PROPERTY THAN THAN THE ADJACENT PROPERTY TO THE WEST OR TO THE EAST, BECAUSE WE FOUND OUT THAT THE ORIGINAL PLAN JUST WASN'T GOOD FROM AN ENGINEERING AND DESIGN STANDPOINT, THIS IS A CHALLENGING PIECE. IT HAS A LOT OF FRONTAGE OR A LOT OF CONTIGUOUS FRONTAGE TO COLLECTOR ROAD, AND THEN JUST THE GRADE, AND WE FOUND WE DESIGNED THIS TO WHERE WE CAN, WE CAN BUILD THESE AND PROVIDE A GREAT PRODUCT FOR GARLAND. THIS PLAN ALIGNS WITH THE COMP PLAN AS WELL. THESE ARE JUST THESE ARE RENDERINGS THAT SHOW WHAT IT MIGHT FEEL LIKE. WE'RE STILL WORKING WITH SOME OF THE ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN. SOME PEOPLE LOVE THIS LOOK, SOME PEOPLE DON'T. IT'S SO WE'RE SORT OF WE'RE WE WANT TO PROVIDE A PRODUCT THAT THE NEIGHBORS LIKE. AND THEN ALSO WHAT WE FEEL WOULD BE BEST, FOR, FOR THE PROSPECTIVE RESIDENTS. AS FAR AS ACCESS GOES, WE HAVE DECELERATION LANES THAT WOULD BECOME BE SERVED. THE DRIVEWAYS ON BOTH CAMPBELL AND SHILOH. WE ALSO HAVE A MEDIAN CUT ON SHILOH, SO IT'LL BE FULL LEFT HAND TURN LANES, AND THEN THERE WOULD BE 50 FOOT WIDE STREETS THAT WOULD SERVE THIS DEVELOPMENT. SO THESE ARE ALL PUBLIC, PUBLICLY DEDICATED STREETS, AS YOU WOULD WOULD SEE WITH A SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD, THERE'S CONCERN ABOUT CUT THROUGH TRAFFIC, WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE GIVEN THAT INTERSECTION IS IT'S A CONGESTED INTERSECTION. AND SO WE ARE WORKING WITH TRANSPORTATION TO PROVIDE SOME CALMING MEASURES, BASICALLY TO TRAFFIC CALM, CALMING. SO TO DETER PEOPLE FROM CUTTING THROUGH, IF YOU'RE HEADING EASTBOUND AND WANTING TO TAKE A RIGHT TO AVOID THAT INTERSECTION. SO WE'RE DEFINITELY WORKING WITH THEM TO DO SOMETHING THAT'S EITHER VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL DEFLECTION, TO OR FRICTION TO SLOW DOWN TRAFFIC OR DETER 
          [00:45:05]
PEOPLE FROM TAKING THAT SHORTCUT FOR OUR RESIDENTS SAKE, HERE'S THE CRITICAL ITEM THAT I THINK IT TIES INTO BOTH CASES AND I THINK IS HUGE, THE TIA THAT WAS DONE REQUIRES US TO DO AN ADDITIONAL LEFT HAND TURN LANE HEADING WESTBOUND. SO WE WOULD BE BUILDING THAT. AND THEN IN ADDITION TO THAT, WE WOULD WE WOULD BUILD OR WORKING WITH TRANSPORTATION TO BUILD A LEFT HAND EASTBOUND TURN LANE, SECOND LEFT HAND TURN LANE. AND THAT WOULD BE ABOVE AND BEYOND THAT WOULD BE INITIATED BY US, OR WE WOULD ALSO AND, OR WE WOULD DO A RIGHT HAND TURN HEADING NORTHBOUND OFF OF SHILOH, HEADING ON THE CAMPBELL, BECAUSE WE'RE DEDICATING RIGHT OF WAY THERE. WE'RE STILL WORKING WITH TRANSPORTATION, BUT WITHOUT OUR DEVELOPMENT, WE WOULD BE IMPROVING THE LEVELS OF SERVICE SUBSTANTIALLY BECAUSE IT WHAT HAPPENS IS TRAFFIC BACKS UP AND THERE'S ONLY ONE LANE. IF YOU HAD ANOTHER LEFT HAND TURN LANE AND ALLOWS PEOPLE MORE CAPACITY TO GET IN THAT LEFT HAND TURN AND IT DOESN'T BLOCK AS MUCH AS THE THROUGH LANES, IF YOU LOOK AT OUR DATA, IT'S SUBSTANTIAL SECONDS THAT ARE ALMOST, ALMOST A SECOND TAKEN OFF BECAUSE THIS I LIVE I LIVED IN THIS AREA AS MAYOR AND MANY PEOPLE KNOW, AND THIS HAS BEEN A CHALLENGING INTERSECTION FOR YEARS, AND BUT WITH THIS IS WE'RE DOING WHAT WE CAN TO MINIMIZE OUR DEVELOPMENT BUT IMPROVE THE OVERALL INTERSECTION, WITHOUT THAT, WOULDN'T HAPPEN WITHOUT THE DEVELOPMENT. AND WITH THIS SITE USED TO BE ZONED RETAIL, BOTH THOSE SITES AND THAT WOULD PRODUCE A LOT MORE TRAFFIC. AND YOU WOULDN'T NECESSARILY HAVE THESE SURPLUS IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE PROPOSED. SO YOU SAID A SECOND WOULD REDUCE IT BY A MINUTE OR DID I SAY A SECOND? YOU SAID ONE. OH THANK YOU. THAT'S NOT MUCH. 50. ALMOST A MINUTE. 50 I THINK IT'S LIKE 51 SECONDS. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE THAT, SO I'LL WRAP UP. THIS IS EXPERIENCED LOCAL DEVELOPER. WE WOULD ASK YOU TO APPROVE THIS TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT. IT ALIGNS WITH THE COMP PLAN. THERE ARE NO DEVIATIONS PROPOSED, AND STAFF RECOMMENDED APPROVAL. AND SO DID PLANNING COMMISSION. I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. VERY GOOD. AND THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION. ON THE SECOND ONE SECOND I WAS LIKE, WHEN YOU YEAH. WHEN YOU WHEN HE SAID THAT IT DIDN'T. AND THEN WHEN YOU POINT I WAS LIKE, YEAH THAT DID SOUND KIND OF WEIRD, QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT, COUNCILMEMBER BASS, THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION, MICHAEL. ACTUALLY, I'M AHEAD OF MY NOTES. 
          I WAS GOING TO ASK ABOUT THAT ONE SECOND TO SO. YEAH, I ACTUALLY LIVE ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THIS INTERSECTION, SO I UNDERSTAND HOW BAD THE TRAFFIC GETS HERE ON. IT'S ON NORTHBOUND CANDLE CAMPBELL. AND ON EASTBOUNUND SHILOH. SO, MY NOTES ARE RELATED TO THAT INTERSECTION AND TO TRAFFIC AS WELL AS, TRAFFIC CALMING FOR THAT CUT THROUGH STREET THERE. SO THE FACT THAT YOU'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED THESE WITH TRANSPORTATION AND WORKING WITH TRANSPORTATION, THAT, THAT THAT COVERS EVERYTHING. I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT. SO. BUT I APPRECIATE YOU, YOU KNOW, BEING PROACTIVE ABOUT THAT. SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. GOOD, DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUCK. HI. HELLO, I REALLY I THOUGHT I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS VERY THOUGHTFUL AND DESIGN, AND I REALLY LIKE THE PARK ADJACENT, THEME THAT YOU HAVE GOING ON. WILL YOU GO WILL YOU GO BACK TO THE SLIDE THAT SHOWS THERE'S, LIKE, A LITTLE GRAY, PORTION RIGHT THERE THAT, THAT TRAIL THAT LEADS OVER TO THE POND. SO THAT WOULD GIVE THE PUBLIC ACCESS TO THE POND. IS THAT YET? WE'RE MAINTAINING WITH THIS DESIGN. THAT'S RIGHT. IT WOULD. IT WOULD LEAD OUT TO THE RIGHT OF WAY, THE SIDEWALK, AND IT WOULD CONNECT TO THE EXISTING SIDEWALK. GREAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YEAH. VERY GOOD. AND COUNCIL MEMBER HEDRICK THANK YOU. MAYOR, CAN YOU EXPAND A LITTLE BIT? EXCUSE ME? EXPAND A LITTLE BIT UPON THE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS YOU'RE MAKING. YOU MENTIONED OPTIONS THERE, AND ONE THAT YOU'RE GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT THE TRAFFIC STUDY REQUIRES. YEAH. SO THE TRAFFIC, THE TIA REQUIRES THAT WE DO A LEFT HAND WESTBOUND TURN LANE, WHICH YOU SEE THERE ON THE RIGH. RIGHT LANE THERE. THAT'D BE A SECOND LANE, TURN LANE. AND SO IN ADDITION TO THAT,T, THEN WE WOULD ALSO DO A RIGHT, A EASTBOUND LEFT HAND TURN HEADING NORTH. OR WE'RE STILL WORKING WITH TRANSPORTATION. IT REALLY DEPENDS ON WHAT THEY APPROVE EXACTLY. THE OTHER OPTION OR ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE TO DO A RIGHT HAND TURN, ON SHILOH HEADING, HEADING ON EAST ON CAMPBELL. AND WE'RE DEDICATING THE RIGHT OF WAY FOR THAT. 
          THERE'S SOME UTILITIES THERE, A SMALL UTILITY, THERE'S ACTUALLY TRANSMISSION LINE, BUT THERE'S ROOM. THERE'S A LITTLE POLE WE MAY REMOVE AND ADD A LANE THERE, BUT IT'S REALLY UP TO TRANSPORTATION. AND, BUT WE ARE WE'RE COMMITTED TO DO TO MAKE THIS INTERSECTION BETTER. IT'S WE DON'T WANT OUR RESIDENTS SITTING IN TRAFFIC ANY LONGER THAN ANYBODY ELSE DOES. RIGHT. 
          AND I KNOW ONE ITEM THAT WAS BROUGHT UP ON THE COMMENTS FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION IS THAT, 
          [00:50:02]
MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN LANE ON EASTBOUND CAMPBELL. IS THAT AN OPTION OR HAVE YOU LOOKED AT THAT? POSSIBLY THAT HAS TO DEAL WITH THIS SITE SPECIFICALLY ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE STREET? YEAH. I DON'T BELIEVE THERE'S. YOU WANT TO ANSWER THAT DAVID? OKAY. YEAH. SO HENRY AND I I'M SORRY DAVID BOND WITH SPIRES ENGINEERING, HENRY AND I HAVE DISCUSSED BOTH THOSE OPTIONS. 
          YOU KNOW, THE BIG DELAY WHERE WE SEE THAT MINUTE PLUS IMPROVEMENT IS FOR THE LEFT BOUND MOVEMENT TO GO SOUTH ON SHILOH, HENRY HAD ALSO MENTIONED. AND THE PHOTO SHOWS PEOPLE QUEUED THERE TO TURN TO TURN, TURN RIGHT. OR IN TO GO STRAIGHT ON SHILOH, YOU KNOW, HENRY POINTED OUT THAT MIGHT GLOBALLY SERVE THE INTERSECTION A LITTLE BIT BETTER. OUR INITIAL THOUGHT WAS TO DO THE SECOND LEFT BOUND TURN LANE TO GO NORTH. YOU KNOW, WITH KROGER THERE, THERE'S A LOT OF TRAFFIC. YOU KNOW, THE WAY THE HILL COMES, IT'S A UNIQUE TURN, AND SO OUR INITIAL THOUGHT WAS, WELL, HEY, LET'S LET'S DO AN EXTRA LEFT THERE. AND HENRY KIND OF POINTED OUT IT MIGHT SERVE EVERYONE BETTER TO DO IT ON THE RIGHT TURN TO GET ONTO CAMPBELL, AND SO WE'RE KIND OF LOOKING AT BOTH OF THOSE, I TALKED AROUND AND I FORGOT YOUR QUESTION, SIR. I THINK I MAY HAVE ANSWERED ABOUT MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN GOING EASTBOUND ON CAMPBELL. WE'VE CERTAINLY LOOKED AT THAT. 
          THE POLL THAT WE THOUGHT MIGHT BE THE MAIN CONSIDERATION. THERE'S A GUARDRAIL THERE, I THINK A LOT OF THOSE FACILITIES HAVE EITHER BEEN ABANDONED OR CAN BE ABANDONED, WE'RE DEDICATING THE RIGHT OF WAY FOR THAT. SO I'M, I TEND TO LEAN TOWARDS THAT AS BEING YOU KNOW, MAYBE A BETTER INVESTMENT THAN THE SECOND LEFT TURN LANE COMING EAST. BUT WE HAVEN'T, HAVEN'T FINALIZED ANYTHING. EXACTLY YET. AND THEN ONE OTHER OPTION TO ASK ABOUT IS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN SOUTHBOUND ONTO SHILOH FROM CAMPBELL, THAT WASN'T I THINK THAT WAS THE FOURTH, WORST MOVEMENT, IF YOU WILL, AT THE INTERSECTION, AND SO WE JUST IN KIND OF ADDRESSING THE WORST, IT'D BE FOR SURE THE LEFT, WESTBOUND LEFT, POTENTIALLY AN EASTBOUND LEFT AS WELL, OR THE NORTHBOUND RIGHT. SO I THAT'S KIND OF AS WE STACK IT IN, I THINK THAT'S, YOU KNOW, HENRY HAD MENTIONED I THINK THIS MIGHT BE ONE OF THE, THE HOW DO YOU PHRASE IT? YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE LOWEST PERFORMING INTERSECTIONS IN THE CITY, JUST WHEN IT COMES TO TRAFFIC. THAT'S CERTAINLY MY EXPERIENCE BEING BY THERE, AND SO WE WANT TO BE THOUGHTFUL ABOUT WHAT WE DO ON A GLOBAL LEVEL, YOU KNOW, NOT JUST WHAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE HERE. O INITIAL THOUGHT ON THAT LEFT WAS PEOPLE EXITING THE TOWNHOMES TO GO BACK NORTH ONTO, YOU KNOW, MAYBE GET TO BUSH EASIER. THAT WOULD BE THERE. BUT HENRY HAD MENTIONED THAT, AND I THINK THAT THAT MIGHT BE THE BETTER OPTION AT THE END OF THE DAY. WELL, IN THE LEFT HAND TURNS CAN BE DONE WITHIN THE EXISTING MEETING MEDIAN. SO WE'RE NOT YOU KNOW, THERE'S NOT ADDITIONAL DEDICATION OF RIGHT OF WAY OR IMPACT WITH THE EXISTING FACILITIES. NOT THAT WE CAN'T LOOK AT THAT, BUT THAT WAS ONE BONUS OF THE LEFT HAND TURN, WITH SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT. VERY GOOD. I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS WILLINGNESS TO GO ABOVE AND ADD AN ADDITIONAL MOVEMENT IMPROVEMENT THERE. I THINK THAT'S WONDERFUL WITH THIS. SO THANK YOU, MAYOR. VERY GOOD I'M SORRY. DO WE HAVE A SPEAKER CARD FOR YOU? ALL RIGHT. THAT WAY. THANK YOU, ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I SEE NONE, THANK YOU. SIR MADAM SECRETARY, DO WE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL SPEAKERS ON THIS ITEM? NO, SIR. WE DO NOT. OKAY. IS THERE ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? I SEE NONE, COUNCILMEMBER HEDRICK, THIS IS IN YOUR DISTRICT, SIR. THANK YOU. MAYOR, THIS PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT, THE PD OR IS THERE? AND, JUST GOING BACK TO RELY ON OUR GDC FOR DESIGN GUIDELINES. I'M IN SUPPORT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT, AND THEREFORE I'D LE TO MOVE TO APPROVE THE CHANGE IN ZONING TO SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DISTRICT. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE BY COUNCIL MEMBER HEDRICK AND A SECOND BY DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUCK TO APPROVE THIS ITEM AS PRESENTED. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION. SEEING NONE, MADAM SECRETARY PREPARES TO VOTE FOR US. PLEASE. COUNCIL AND DISPLAY THE VOTE. AND THIS ITEM IS APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY. MOVING ON. 
          BASICALLY ACROSS THE STREET, LET'S SEE. THIS WOULD BE ITEM SIX C CONSIDER REQUEST BY SPIRES 
          [c.  Consider a request by Spiars Engineering proposing a Multi-Family Development. The site is located at 2200 West Campbell Road in District 7. Consider and take appropriate action on the application of Spiars Engineering, requesting approval of a 1) Change in zoning from Planned Development (PD) District 22-20 for Single-Family Attached (SFA) Uses to a Planned Development (PD) District for Multi-Family-2 (MF-2) District Uses and 2) a Concept Plan for a Planned Development (PD) District for Mult-Family-2 (MF-2) Uses. This property is located at 2200 West Campbell Road. (District 7) (File Z 24-05)]
ENGINEERING PROPOSING A MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT. THIS SITE IS LOCATED AT 2200 WEST CAMPBELL ROAD IN DISTRICT SEVEN. WE HAVE THE. 20 4-05. THERE WE GO. THE APPLICANT REQUESTS A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 22 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY 
          [00:55:01]
ATTACHED USES TO MULTIFAMILY. TWO USES TO CONSTRUCT AN APARTMENT COMPLEX. THE LOCATION IS 2200 WEST CAMPBELL ROAD, AND IT'S 12.9 ACRES. THE ZONING IS PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 22 DASH 20, THIS MAP SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE AREA WITHIN THE CITY AND THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY ALONG CAMPBELL ROAD AND SHILOH ROAD. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IDENTIFIES THIS AREA AS URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS. URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS ARE HIGHER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS. THIS RESIDENTIAL OPTION MAY UTILIZE VERTICAL, MIXED USE INTEGRATED INTO THE SURROUNDING AREA, REFLECTING THE AREA'S DOMINANT CHARACTER OR, WHEN DESIRED, PROMOTING A NEW CHARACTER. THE PROPOSED USE IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THE PHOTOS SHOW VIEWS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING EAST DOWN WEST CAMPBELL ROAD, AND VIEWS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING NORTH ACROSS WEST CAMPBELL ROAD, SHOWING THE BANK AND RETAIL. HERE ARE VIEWS FROM THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING WEST ACROSS NORTH SHILOH ROAD AND VIEW OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING SOUTH FROM WEST CAMPBELL ROAD. THE CONCEPT PLAN SHOWS THE BUILDINGS THAT ARE PROPOSED HERE IN RED, AND WE'LL GET INTO MORE DETAIL ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR BUILDING, WHICH IS BUILDING FIVE. IT ALSO ALSO SHOWS, EXCUSE ME, IN THE GRAY PARKING AREA AND DRIVE AISLES ALONG WITH, THE GREEN BELT, THE GREEN BELT, THE FLOODWAY AND LANDSCAPE AREAS. THIS IS THE MEDIAN CUT THAT WAS DISCUSSED, RELATED TO IMPROVING ACCESS TO THE SITE, WE ALSO SHOW SOME FENCING HERE THAT I'LL TALK ABOUT A LITTLE BIT LATER. LATER AS WELL. IN THE PRESENTATION. AND FINALLY IN THE YELLOW THAT SHOWS THE AMENITY AREAS. ACCORDING TO THE GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, CHAPTER TWO, TABLE 20 DASH FOUR WEST CAMPBELL ROAD REQUIRES A FRONT YARD SETBACK. FRONT YARD BUILDING SETBACK OF 20FT IN THE MULTIFAMILY TWO DISTRICT. THE APPLICANT PROPOSES A FRONT YARD SETBACK OF 16FT, DECREASING THE SETBACK WOULD ALLOW FOR A MORE URBAN STYLE TO THE DEVELOPMENT, BEING CLOSER TO THE STREET AND ALLOW FOR MORE ROOM WITHIN THE SITE TO PROVIDE PARKING AND OTHER AMENITIES. THE GDC ALSO ALLOWS A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 50FT FOR THE MULTIFAMILY TWO ZONING. 
          THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 55FT FOR BUILDING NUMBER FIVE PER THE CONCEPT PLAN. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE BUILDING WILL WILL PRESENT ITSELF AS A THREE STORY STRUCTURE FROM THE WEST, BUT WILL BE 55FT TALL DUE TO THE GRADE CHANGE. THE CLOSER THE BUILDING GETS TO THE CREEK AND TO THE EAST AND THIS WAS SHOWN HERE FOR BUILDING FIVE. THE GDC REQUIRES A FIVE FOOT TALL ORNAMENTAL METAL FENCE OR A SIX FOOT TALL MASONRY WALL TO BE ALONG THE EASTERN PROPERTY LINE. THE APPLICANT PROPOSES NO SCREENING BE REQUIRED BETWEEN THE SITE AND THE SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED DEVELOPMENT TO THE EAST. IN ADDITION, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING A SIX FOOT ORNAMENTAL FENCE WITHOUT MASONRY COLUMNS TO BE PLACED WEST OF THE TREE LINE BETWEEN BUILDINGS FOUR AND FIVE. THE EXISTING FLOOD PLAIN AND HEAVY TREE COVERAGE WILL REMAIN AT THE NATURAL SCREEN BETWEEN THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AND THE EXISTING SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED PROPERTY TO THE EAST. THE ORNAMENTAL FENCE WILL PROVIDE SOME SECURITY AND THE PROPOSED FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT LEAVE AN OPEN VIEW OF THE TREES FOR RESIDENTS, PREVENT MANY TREES FROM BEING CUT DOWN AND NOT BLOCK THE NEIGHBORING PROPERTY FROM THE VIEW AND ACCESS TO THE WOODED AREA AND CREEK, A TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS WAS REQUESTED BY THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT. THE SUBMISSION WAS REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT. THE APPLICANT WILL ADD A WESTBOUND WEST CAMPBELL ROAD LEFT TURN LANE, AS MENTIONED, TO AID TURN SOUTH ONTO NORTH SHILOH ROAD. THE APPLICANT WILL ALSO WILL ALSO ADD AN EASTBOUND WEST CAMPBELL LEFT TURN LANE AND OR A RIGHT TURN LANE ON WESTBOUND WEST CAMPBELL TO A TURNS ONTO NORTH SHILOH ROAD. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THESE TURN LANES WERE NOT REQUIRED TO BE ADDED BY THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT, BUT THE APPLICANT CHOSE TO BETTER HELP TRAFFIC FLOW. FINALLY, A MEDIAN OPEN OPENING IS PROPOSED SOUTHBOUND ON NORTH SHILOH ROAD TO ADD A LEFT TURN LANE INTO THE SITE. THE SITE ENTRANCE ON NORTH SHILOH WILL ALSO FEATURE TWO EXIT LANES TO ALLOW BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT TURNS OUT OF THE SITE. STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS APPROVAL OF A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 22 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED USES TO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT FOR MULTIFAMILY, TWO DISTRICT USES, AND A CONCEPT PLAN FOR PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT FOR MULTIFAMILY TWO USES. ON JULY EIGHTH, 2024, WITH AN 8 TO 1 VOTE, THE PLAN COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF A CHANGE 
          [01:00:04]
IN ZONING FROM PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 22 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED USES TO A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT FOR MULTIFAMILY, TWO DISTRICT USES AND A CONCEPT PLAN FOR A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT FOR MULTIFAMILY TO USE. 105 NOTIFICATIONS WERE MAILED FOR THIS PARTICULAR REQUEST. TEN WERE RECEIVED WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, 19 WERE RECEIVED OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, FOR A TOTAL OF 29 RESPONSES RECEIVED. 
          VERY GOOD. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ON THIS ITEM? COUNCILMEMBER WILLIAMS THANK YOU, MAYOR. GOOD EVENING AGAIN. EVING. WOULD YOU PUT THE SLIDE UP AGAIN WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT SCREENING AND LANDSCAPING, PLEASE? THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSES NO SCREENING BE REQUIRED BETWEEN THE SITE. THE MULTIFAMILY AND SINGLE FAMILY CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT FROM A STAFF POINT OF VIEW? SURE I'D LIKE TO GO BACK TO THE CONCEPT PLAN HERE. THEY FELT THAT THE NATURAL SCREENING PROVIDED BY THE EXISTING, BUT PLANT MATERIAL WOULD BE APPROPRIATE. IN RETAINING THAT YOU WOULD REMOVE THE NEED TO, DESTROY EXISTING MATERIAL, IN FAVOR OF MATERIAL THAT CURRENTLY EXISTS. AND THE APPLICANT, I'M SURE, WILL, PERHAPS EXPOUND ON THAT IDEA. 
          THANK YOU. I'LL WAIT FOR THE APPLICANT. THANK YOU, MAYOR. VERY GOOD. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? SEE NONE. THANK YOU. ANGELA AND MADAM SECRETARY, HAVE YOU CALLED THE APPLICANTS FORWARD, PLEASE? MAXWELL FISHER, EVEN THOUGH YOU JUST DID IT, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN. OKAY. MAXWELL FISHER WITH ZONE DEV, 2502 GRANDVIEW DRIVE, RICHARDSON, TEXAS, 75080, REPRESENTING LEON CAPITAL. MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS, LET ME GO TO THE MULTIFAMILY SECTION. I THINK I'LL START HERE. SO WITH THE CURRENT ZONING OF THIS PROPERTY, IT'S A PD FOR TOWNHOMES, INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP ACTUALLY DESIGNATES THIS AS AN URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD AREA. AN URBAN NEIGHBORHOOD HAS DENSITIES OF 12 DWELLING UNITS OR GREATER. SO THE PROPOSAL TO A MULTIFAMILY WOULD ACTUALLY BE MORE IN LINE WITH THE COMP PLAN THAN THE CURRENT ZONING OF TOWNHOME, SO WE WANTED TO POINT THAT OUT, ONE OF THE WE MET WITH THE SHOAL CREEK NEIGHBORS AT THE HOLIDAY INN. WE HAD ABOUT 12 IN ATTENDANCE. AND, IT WAS A GOOD IT WAS A POSITIVE MEETING. IT STARTED A LITTLE DEFENSIVE WHEN THEY SAW THEY HEARD MULTIFAMILY AND DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WE WERE DOING MULTIFAMILY, BUT IT ENDED UP, WHEN THEY WHEN PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING AND ABOUT WHY WE'RE PROPOSING AND WHY WE NEED MULTIFAMILY ON THE SITE, WHY MULTIFAMILY MAKES SENSE FOR THIS SITE WITH THE BALANCE OF FOR SALE TOWNHOMES ON THE OTHER SITE, AND WHAT WE'RE DOING IN TERMS OF ADDRESSING THEIR CONCERNS, IT WAS WE GOT NEW NEUTRAL TO OKAY, THIS MAKES SENSE FOR THE SITE. WE ARE PRESERVING MOST OF THAT GREENBELT, THE PART IN RED. THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF PROTRUDING GREEN AREA THERE TO THE WEST THAT PROTRUDES WEST INTO THAT RED AREA. THAT'S THE ONLY PART THAT WE'RE DISTURBING. SO THE AREA IN GREEN WOULD BE WOULD REMAIN UNDISTURBED. THIS IS A PD CONCEPT PLAN FOR MULTIFAMILY 281 UNITS, SEVEN BUILDINGS IN THE CLUBHOUSE, THREE STORY CONSTRUCTION MARKET RATE UNITS, MOSTLY TWO QUARTERS, IS ONE BEDROOM AND THEN A THIRD IS TWO BEDROOM. AND THEN THERE'S ONLY THREE 5% THAT ARE THREE BEDROOMS. SO IT'S MOSTLY FOR YOUNG PROFESSIONALS, SMALLER FAMILIES, NOT YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT FOR LARGER FAMILIES, PROPOSED AMENITIES, RESORT POOL. LOUNGE AREAS, INDOOR OUTDOOR RESIDENT CLUB, FITNESS CENTER, PRIVATE YARDS. WE ALSO HAVE COWORKING LOUNGE AND PRIVATE OFFICES, CARPORTS AND TUCK UNDER GARAGES. WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT. THE ELEVATIONS HAVE NOT BEEN PERFECTED OR DESIGNED, BUT WE JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU SOME OF OTHER LEON CAPITAL DEVELOPMENTS. THEY THEY BRING HIGH QUALITY TO THEIR TO THE COMMUNITIES THEY DEVELOP IN ARLINGTON, FLOWER MOUND COLONY, FORT WORTH. WE CAN GO BACK TO THESE AND LEON CAPITAL CAN DISCUSS THESE. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENTS, HERE'S SOME INTERIOR SHOTS, OF THEIR DEVELOPMENTS, HIGH QUALITY, GREAT FINISHES. RESORT STYLE POOLS WITH DIFFERENT SECTIONS. SO THE OTHER ONE OF THE CONCERNS OF THE NEIGHBORS IS WHAT ARE YOU TAKING AWAY? THE GREENBELT. AND WE DID A STUDY TO SHOW OUR IMPACT, HOW TALL WE ARE, OUR SITE AT GRADE WILL BE THREE FEET LOWER THAN THE EXISTING SHOAL CREEK TOWNHOMES. SO, WE WON'T BE A WHOLE STORY ABOVE THEM. WE'LL BE A LITTLE LESS THAN THAT, AND 
          [01:05:03]
WE'RE ALSO OVER 270FT AWAY, SO THAT THAT GREENBELT THAT HAS BOTH DECIDUOUS AND EVERGREEN TREES WOULD REMAIN. NOT TO MENTION WE'RE A LITTLE BIT LOWER, THAN THAN THEIR THAN THEIR GRADE, SO WE THE PRIVACY WOULD BE MAINTAINED. WE'RE 43FT TO OUR VERY TOP ROOF LINE, WE ACTUALLY DID SOME, PUT SOME DRONES UP ABOVE THE SITE AT 45FT OFF THE GROUND, AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THAT GREENBELT IS VERY ROBUST, WILL NOT BE LOOKING DOWN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S FAR AWAY. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THIS IS 45FT. SO THIS IS LIKE IF YOU WERE TWO FEET ABOVE THE VERY TOP OF THE ROOF LINE. IF YOU LIVE ON THE THIRD STORY, FACING EAST IN THE MULTIFAMILY, YOU'RE ONLY ABOUT 27FT OFF THE GROUND. SO IT'S EVEN LOWER, YOU KNOW, I GUESS, WHAT IS THAT 17FT LOWER VANTAGE POINT? SO IT WOULD BLOCK EVEN MORE VIEW OF THAT, OF THAT TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT. YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SEE AS MUCH IS WHAT I'M GETTING AT. HERE'S ANOTHER VIEW OF THAT. LOOKING SOUTHEAST. WE WENT OVER THE INTERSECTION AND WE CAN GO BACK TO THAT. BUT WE ARE ALSO WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT, WE'RE TRYING TO MINIMIZE OUR IMPACT FROM A TRAFFIC STANDPOINT. OUR MAIN ENTRANCE WILL BE WITH OUR OUR LEFT, OUR MEDIAN BREAK, WHICH WILL ALLOW FULL ACCESS OFF OF SHILOH. SO YOU'LL SEE THERE ON SHILOH, WE HAVE A PROPOSED MEDIAN BREAK, AND THAT LASTS TWO WAY ACCESS. THIS WE'RE ALSO PROPOSING AN ENHANCED DRIVEWAY. SO WE HAVE BOTH A RIGHT HAND TURN AND A LEFT HAND TURN EXITING OUR MAIN DRIVEWAY IN ADDITION TO THE ENTRANCE. SO THAT WAY IT JUST ALLOWS FOR BETTER FLOW OF TRAFFIC FOR PEOPLE LEAVING, AND THEN OUR ONLY ACCESS POINT ON CAMPBELL, WHICH IS WHERE WE HAVE MORE OF THE TRAFFIC ISSUE, IS AN EXIT ONLY. SO RESIDENTS CAN HIT THEIR THEIR BUTTON TO OPEN THE GATE, TO EXIT ONLY THERE AND HEAD RIGHT, SO WE'RE NOT HAVING ANY, ANY TRAFFIC COMING IN AND BLOCKING TRAFFIC CONGESTION, TRAFFIC AS ON CAMPBELL, WHICH WE KNOW, THERE'S TRAFFIC, I THINK THAT'S IT FROM TRAFFIC. BUT I'LL BE HAPPY TO GO BACK ON THAT. WE'VE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE PREVIOUS REQUEST. WE CAN GO BACK OVER THIS IF WE NEED TO. SO WE WERE ASKING YOU ALL TO APPROVE THIS REQUEST. IT'S AN EXPERIENCED DEVELOPER CLASS A DEVELOPMENT. IT ALIGNS WITH THE COMP PLAN BETTER THAN THE CURRENT PD FOR TOWNHOMES, WE WOULD BE DOING THE INTERCTION IMPROVEMENTS. IT'S CRITICAL THAT WE GET THIS SITE APPROVED AS WELL BECAUSE IT'S HELPING US FROM AN ECONOMIC STANDPOINT, LEVERAGE THE TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, NEXT DOOR, WHICH AND THEN WE WOULD ALSO BE DOING RIGHT OF WAY DEDICATION HERE AS WELL, WHICH WOULD HELP WITH POTENTIAL FUTURE, TURN LANES TO JUST HELP THE TRAFFIC OF THIS INTERSECTION. WE'D ASK YOU TO ALIGN WITH STAFF AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S SUPPORT WITH THIS REQUEST, AND WE'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. VERY GOOD. SIR. QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT, COUNSELOR WILLIAMS. THANKS MAYOR. GREETINGS AGAIN, I THINK YOU HEARD MY QUESTION TO STAFF, AND I THINK YOU YOU'VE ALREADY ANSWERED MY QUESTION AS FAR AS THE SCREENING OF THE ELEVATION, THE TREE LINE OF THE PRESERVATION. CAN YOU SPEAK TO THAT AGAIN AS TO WHY THAT REQUEST IS AND C CLEAR IT FOR M? THANK YOU. SURE. IF TYPICALLY YOU WOULD BE ONE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PUT IN A MINIMUM SIX FOOT TALL SOLID MASONRY WALL, ALONG THE MULTIFAMILY ADJACENT TO THE SINGLE FAMILY. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE HERE, BECAUSE THERE'S SUCH A NATURAL BUFFER THERE. SO WE'D HAVE TO BE PUTTING A FENCE OR SCREENING WALL. WELL, ONE, IT CAN'T GO ON THE FLOODPLAIN AREA, SO IT HAD TO BE CLOSER TO OUR BUILDINGS. 
          THAT JUST WOULDN'T MAKE SENSE TO PUT IN A MASONRY WALL THAT'S SORT OF IN NO MAN'S LAND. THAT REALLY JUST BLOCKS VIEW FOR OUR RESIDENTS, SO IN THIS CASE, THE NATURAL PRESERVATION SERVES AS A BETTER SCREEN THAN THE TYPICAL MAN MADE REQUIREMENT. THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU MAYOR. THANKS VERY GOOD, COUNCIL MEMBER BASS. THANK YOU MAYOR. AGAIN. MAXWELL GREAT PRESENTATION. MOST OF THE QUESTIONS I HAD WERE RELATED TO THE, PROXIMITY FROM AND VISIBILITY FROM SHUTTLE TO AND FROM SHOAL CREEK. SO I APPRECIATE YOU ADDRESSING ALL OF THAT, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDRESSED THIS QUESTION, BUT I DON'T RECALL, WHAT'S THE DENSITY PROPOSED HERE? I THINK IT'S JUST OVER 22 UNITS AN ACRE. BUT DON'T QUOTE ME. SEE IF I HAVE THAT IN HERE. 281 UNITS. WHAT'S THE ACREAGE? 12.92 ON THE GROSS. SO IT'S 21.7, 21.8. OKAY I WAS RIGHT. YEAH. AWESOME. OKAY. 
          THAN YOU, THANK YOU. THAT'S PLANNER APPROXIMATION. I'M NOT IN HERE. I'M JUST WATCHING THESE GUYS FLIP THROUGH THEIR NOTEBOOKS. SO. YES. THANK YOU MAYOR. THANK YOU. MAXWELL VERY GOOD. AND COUNCIL MEMBER R HEDRK THANK U. MAYOR. JUST ONE CLARIFICATION. I THINK IN THE PLANNING COMMISSION HEARING IS MENTIONED, THERE'D BE SOME KIND OF FENCE A ALONG THERESERVATION 
          [01:10:06]
AREA, BUT HERE AND THE CONCEPT PLAN, YOU'RE JUST SHOWING ONE BETWEEN BUILDINGS FOUR AND FIVE. 
          WILL RESIDENTS BE ABLE TO ACCESS THAT AREA BACK THERE? IS THERE ANY KIND OF GATE OR FENCE OR ANYTHING TO PREVENT THEM? AND WILL THOSE UNITS IN BUILDINGS FOUR AND FIVE HAVE EXITS THAT EXIT TO THE EAST TO THE AREA? AH, YEAH, WE WILL HAVE. SO WE'LL HAVE THE ORNAMENTAL FENCE THAT WILL BE BETWEEN THE TWO EASTERN BUILDINGS, WE WILL HAVE SOME GROUND FLOOR UNITS THAT WILL FACE OUT TOWARDS THE GREENBELT, AND SO I DON'T KNOW THAT WE PLAN ON ENCLOSING THAT AREA, DO WE? FELIX SAENZ LEON CAPITAL GROUP. 914 CORDOVA STREET, DALLAS, TEXAS. 75223I KNOW TYPICALLY ON KIND OF THOSE GROUND FLOOR UNITS WHERE WE HAVE PATIOS, WE DO ENCLOSE THOSE AND WE WON'T HAVE GATES KIND OF GOING OUT THERE. SO THEY'LL BE ABLE TO SIT ON THEIR PATIO, SIT, ENJOY THE GREENBELT, SITTING AND ENJOY THE NATURE THAT'S BEING PRESERVED THERE. BUT NO, THERE WON'T BE DIRECT ACCESS OUT THERE. WE DON'T PLAN TO, YOU KNOW, GIVE OUR RESIDENTS ACCESS TO. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN CONCERNS FROM SHOAL CREEK KIND OF ABOUT THAT. SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE WANT TO AVOID. WELL THANK YOU. THANK YOU MAYOR. VERY GOOD SPEAKER CARD. YES, SIR. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I SEE NONE, THANK YOU. THANKS MADAM SECRETARY, DO WE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL SPEAKERS ON THIS ITEM? NO, SIR. WE DO NO. IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? OKAY, SIR. I'LL ASK YOU TO GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD. AND I'LL ASK FOR A SPEAKER CARD FROM YOU BEFORE YOU LEAVE, AND YOU'LL HAVE THREE MINUTES. OKAY. YES. MY NAME IS STEVE AUSTIN. I RESIDE AT 6513 WILDLIFE TRAIL, SHOAL CREEK, TOWNHOMES. SO I LIVE ACROSS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS. PRESERVATION AREA, AND I'VE BEEN VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THOSE TWO BUILDINGS ANDD HOW THEY'RE GOING TO, BREACH THAT GREENBELT. BUT I THINK IF I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. THAT YOU'RE GOING TO LOWER THE GRADE. YES, SIR. 
          AND IT WON'T HAVE I WON'T HAVE UNITS LOOKING DOWN IN MY PATIO. CORRECT. SO THAT THAT DOES ALLEVIATE A LOT OF MY CONCERNS. THERE. NOW, OF COURSE, THE TRAFFIC IN THE AREA I'VE HEARD YOU ALL ACKNOWLEDGE IS A NIGHTMARE. AND, AND I APPRECIATE, YOU KNOW, YOU DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THAT AS WELL. SO OTHER THAN THAT, I, I GUESS I WOULD LIKE TO END BY SAYING, I THINK WE HAVE ENOUGH APARTMENTS IN THE AREA, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A LOT MORE SERVICES IN THE AREA, I KNOW I, I WON'T BE ABLE. TO STOP THIS FREIGHT TRAIN OF DEVELOPMENT HERE, BUT, I JUST, IT SURPRISES ME THAT I'VE HEARD THE WORD URBAN AND DENSE INTO THE DESCRIPTION OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD, BECAUSE I MOVED OUT TO THE SUBURBS AND A TOWNHOME COMMUNITY THAT I FELT LIKE WAS MODERATELY DENSE, I DIDN'T MOVE INTO THIS. SO I'M QUITE SURPRISED THAT, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT URBANIZING AND HIGH DENSITY DEVELOPMENT INTO MY NEIGHBORHOOD. AND I THINK WE'VE GOT ENOUGH APARTMENTS, BUT THANK YOU. THANK YOU, SIR. AND IF I COULD GET YOU TO FILL OUT A SPEAKER CARD, I APPRECIATE YOU COMING DOWN. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? SEEING NONE AND COUNCIL, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF FOLLOW THE GENTLEMAN'S COMMENTS, SOME OF YOU MAY NOT KNOW THIS THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF PROPERTY HAS BEEN UNDER DISCUSSION SINCE ABOUT 1986, THIS, THIS AREA THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE TONIGHT WAS ORIGINALLY IN THE, IN THE 80S, ENVISIONED AS AN OFFICE PARK, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN STORY OFFICE BUILDINGS AND PARKING GARAGES. AND THAT SORT OF THING. AND OBVIOUSLY THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN, AND THERE HAVE BEEN JUST IN MY JUST IN MY TIME ON THIS COUNCIL, THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE PROJECTS COME THROUGH ON THIS, ON THIS PROPERTY, AND, NONE OF THEM HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MAKE IT WORK, BUT I THINK, I THINK THAT THIS GROUP, HAS CERTAINLY PUT SOME THOUGHT INTO SOME OF THE 
          [01:15:08]
ADJACENT, OBVIOUSLY THE TRAFFIC ISSUES, ETC, BUT JUST TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THIS, THIS ONE PIECE OF LAND HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN THESE CHAMBERS SINCE 1986, IN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. AND, I CERTAINLY SUPPORT THIS. AND WITH THAT, COUNCILMEMBER HEDRICK, THIS IN YOUR DISTRICT, SIR? THANK YOU. MAYOR. AND I, TOO, APPRECIATE THE DEVELOPERS GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND TO MEET WITH THE RESIDENTS, SURROUNDING RESIDENTS AND PERFORMING THE SITE STUDIES AND THE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS. SO THEREFORE, I MOVED TO APPROVE A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM PD DISTRICT 2022 DASH 20 FOR SINGLE FAMILY TO A PD FOR MULTIFAMILY AND APPROVAL OF A CONCEPT PLAN. VERY GOOD. I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER HEDRICK TO APPROVE THIS ITEM AS PRESENTED WITH A SECOND BY DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUKE SEEING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION.

UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SIR MOVING ON TO OUR NEXT ITEM, ITEM SIX E CONSIDER REQUEST BY ZONE DEV AND STONE HAWK CAPITAL PROPOSING A CHANGE IN ZONING TO ALLOW MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT ON THE SUBJECT. PROPERTY THAT IS LOCATED AT 121 AND 151 EAST I-30 IN DISTRICT THREE WE HAVE, THE 24 DASH 25. THE APPLICANT REQUESTS AN AMENDMENT OF PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820 TO CONSTRUCT AN APARTMENT COMPLEX. THE LOCATION IS 121 AND 151 EAST. I-30 AND THE SITE IS 8.5 ACRES. THE ZONING IS PLANNED. DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820. THE MAP SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE PROPERTY WITHIN THE CITY. AND THEN THE PROPERTY LOCATION ALONG ROSE HILL AND I-30 AREA. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IDENTIFIES THE AREA'S BUSINESS CENTER. BUSINESS CENTERS PROVIDE A CLUSTER OF BUSINESS OFFICES AND OR LOW IMPACT INDUSTRY, INCLUDING CAMPUS TYPE DEVELOPMENT THAT CUMULATIVELY EMPLOY LARGE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE. OPERATIONS WITHIN THIS DEVELOPMENT TYPE OCCUR INTERNAL TO BUILDINGS, RESULTING IN A MINIMAL NEGATIVE IMPACT, AND ARE COMPATIBLE WITH ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT TYPES AND ARCHITECTURE. CHARACTER, SCALE AND INTENSITY. BUSINESS CENTERS ARE GENERALLY LOCATED AT INTERSECTIONS OF MAJOR AND OR SECONDARY ARTERIAL STREETS OR SIGNIFICANT TRANSIT AREAS. PROXIMITY AND ACCESS TO RESIDENTIAL AREAS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REDUCE TRAVEL TIMES TO EMPLOYMENT. SITE DESIGN, 
          [01:25:04]
ADDRESSES, FUNCTION, AND VISUAL ESTHETICS, PROVIDING APPROPRIATE BUFFERING AT GATEWAY CORRIDORS BETWEEN ADJACENT DEVELOPMENTS AND FOR RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. PHOTOS OF THE AREA SHOW THE VIEW OF THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING NORTH FROM EAST I-30 VIEW FROM THE SUBJECT SITE LOOKING WEST DOWN THE EAST. I-30 SERVICE ROAD. VIEW FROM THE ADJACENT SITE LOOKING SOUTH DOWN ROSE HILL ROAD TOWARDS I-30 AND VIEW OF THE SUBJECT SITE ZOOMED IN LOOKING EAST FROM ROSE HILL ROAD. THE CONCEPT PLAN SHOWS THE FOOTPRINT OF PROPOSED BUILDINGS SHOWN HERE IN RED, ALONG WITH AMENITY AREAS SHOWN HERE IN THE TAN COLOR, AS WELL AS PARKING AND DRIVEWAY AISLES. IN ADDITION, IT SHOWS THE INTRODUCTION OF A POCKET PARK, WHICH WOULD BE A, PRIVATELY OWNED, PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE FACILITY, AND IT ALSO SHOWS THE EXTENSION OF THACKERY ROAD, WHICH WAS SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE A POSITIVE ADDITION TO THIS AREA, TO OPEN UP THE AREA FOR DEVELOPMENT. IN ADDITION, IT SHOWS AN AREA FOR, RETENTION POND HERE AS WELL AS SOME OPPORTUNITY FOR, LANDSCAPE WITHIN THAT AREA. ACCORDING TO THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820 SUBDISTRICT THREE, THE MAXIMUM UNITS PER ACRE ALLOWED IS 30. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING 36 UNITS PER ACRE IN ORDER TO MAKE THE DEVELOPMENT MORE URBAN, PER THE ORDINANCES INTENT. THE APPLICANT ALSO NOTED THAT THE ADDITION OF A DETENTION POND OR RETENTION POND LOWERS THE AMOUNT OF LAND TO BUILD ON THE GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE. CHAPTER TWO, TABLE 2-4 STATES THAT THE MULTIFAMILY TWO DISTRICT ALLOWS THE MAXIMUM UNIT DENSITY OF 32 UNITS PER ACRE. 
          THIS NUMBER IS HIGHER THAN THE CURRENT ZONING ALLOWS, THOUGH THE INTENT WAS TO BE MORE URBAN. 
          1820, THE MAXIMUM UNITS PER ACRE ALLOWED WAS 18 FOR THE EXISTING MULTIFAMILY DISTRICT. THE PROPOSAL REQUESTS AN ADDITIONAL FOUR UNITS PER ACRE MORE THAN THE GDC ALLOWS. HOWEVER ALLOWING A HIGHER DENSITY WOULD BETTER PROMOTE AN URBAN STYLE DEVELOPMENT PER THE EXISTING ORDINANCES INTENT. ACCORDING TO THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820 SUBDISTRICT THREE, THE MINIMUM DWELLING UNIT SIZE FOR A ONE BEDROOM IS 700FT■S. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING 35 UNITS HAVE A MINIMUM DWELLING UNIT SIZE OF 625 27. EXCUSE ME, SQUARE FEET. THE GDC REQUIRES A MINIMUM DWELLING UNIT SIZE OF 650FT■S, WHICH IS LOWER THAN THE EXISTING ORDINANCE ON THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. THE DECREASE. TO 627FT■S ALLOWS BETTER AFFORDABILITY FOR THOSE WHO WOULD PREFER TO BE OKAY WITH A SMALLER HOME, PER THE APPLICANT. ACCORDING TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820, NON RESIDENTIAL OR URBAN STYLE MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT SECTION, CARPORTS MUST GENERALLY MATCH THE ROOF OF THE MAIN STRUCTURE AND BE SUPPORTED WITH A DECORATIVE COLUMN OR COLUMNS ENCASED IN A MASONRY MATERIAL AT THE BASE TO AT LEAST THREE FEET ABOVE GRADE. 
          ABOVE THE MASONRY BASE, A DURABLE METAL MUST COAT TO MATCH THE COLOR OF THE MAIN STRUCTURE. 
          WHILE CARPORTS ARE NO LONGER REQUIRED PER THE GDC NOR BY THE EXISTING ORDINANCE, THE APPLICANT REQUEST THAT THE REQUIREMENT OF A MASONRY BASE AND ALL DECORATIVE DESIGN BE REMOVED. THE ADDING OF A MASONRY BASE AND OTHER ADDITIONAL DESIGN ELEMENTS CONFLICT WITH SPACE TO PARK AND CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO AUTOMOBILES. PER THE APPLICANT. ACCORDING TO THE GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE, CARPORTS MAY NOT ENCROACH INTO THE SIDE SETBACKS. THE APPLICANT REQUESTS, ALLOWING CARPORTS TO ENCROACH INTO SIDE YARDS THAT ARE NOT ADJACENT TO A PUBLIC STREET. ON STREET PARKING IS CURRENTLY NOT ALLOWED ALONG A PUBLIC ROAD. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING PARKING IN THE THACKERY RIGHT OF WAY TO ALIGN MORE WITH THE DESIRED URBAN DESIGN. ACCORDING TO THE GARLAND DEVELOPMENT CODE. EXCUSE ME, A PARKING RATIO OF 1.5 SPACES FOR EVERY ONE BED UNIT AND TWO SPACES FOR EVERY TWO BED UNIT IS REQUIRED. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING REQUESTING A PARKING RATIO OF 1.4 SPACES PER ONE BEDROOM AND 1.9 SPACES PER TWO BEDROOM, WITH A ON STREET PARKING BEING ALLOWED TO COUNT TOWARDS THAT REQUIREMENT. THE APPLICANT STATES THAT THE ALLOWED PARKING REGULATIONS. EXCUSE ME, WILL ALIGN MORE WITH DEMAND AND PROMOTE URBAN DESIGN. THE GDC REQUIRES 40% FOR SCREENING AND LANDSCAPING OF THE SITE TO BE DEVOTED TO LANDSCAPING, OPEN SPACE, POOLS, AND OTHER OUTDOOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY AREAS. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING 32% OF THE SITE BE DEVOTED TO SUCH USE. A PRIVATELY OWNED, PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE PARKING PARK IS BEING PROPOSED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THACKERY ROAD TO GIVE RESIDENTS AN URBAN PARK TO USE TO THEIR DESIRE. WHILE THIS KIND OF AMENITY IS A MORE USEFUL ALLOCATION OF GREEN SPACE, IT DOES NOT MEET THE INTENT OF THE GDC LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENT. DUE TO THIS, THE PARKING PARK DOES NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE OVERALL PERCENTAGE OF 
          [01:30:03]
LANDSCAPING, BUT IF IT WERE INCLUDED IN THE CALCULATION, THE SITE WOULD MEET THE MINIMUM OF 42% OF THE LAND BEING DEVOTED TO LANDSCAPING, OPEN SPACE, POOLS AND OTHER OUTDOOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITY. ACCORDING TO THE GDC, A 15 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER IS REQUIRED ALONG THE PROPOSED THACKERY ROAD. LARGE CANOPY TREES ARE REQUIRED FOR EVERY 30 LINEAL FEET OF FRONTAGE. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING ONE LARGE CANOPY TREE FOR EVERY 45 LINEAL FEET OF ON STREET PARKING FRONTAGE. THIS WOULD BE COMMENSURATE WITH AN URBAN AND URBAN STREETSCAPE FOR SIGNAGE. 
          ACCORDING TO THE GDC ARTICLE, FIVE BLADE SIGNS ARE ALLOCATED ARE ALLOTTED A MINIMUM OF FOUR SQUARE FEET WHEN SUSPENDED BENEATH A GROUND LEVEL CANOPY OR AWNING, OR ATTACHED TO A BUILDING ON THE GROUND LEVEL FACADE. IN ADDITION, THE BUILDING SIGN ALONE MAY NO LONGER. I'M SORRY, MAY BE NO LARGER. EXCUSE ME THAN EIGHT SQUARE FEET WHEN ATTACHED TO THE BUILDING. SECOND OR HIGHER STORY. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING A MAXIMUM OF 40FT■S FOR A PROJECTING BLADE SIGN, THE EXPLANATION BEING THAT IT WILL BE COMMISERATE WITH THE URBAN DEVELOPMENT STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820 FOR MIXED USES IN A CONCEPT PLAN FOR MULTIFAMILY, TWO USES. ON JULY 8TH, 2024, WITH A 9 TO 0 VOTE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT 1820 FOR MIXED USES AND A CONCEPT PLAN FOR MULTIFAMILY. TWO USES. 31 NOTIFICATION LETTERS WERE MAILED. WE RECEIVED THREE FROM WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST. WE RECEIVED ONE OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA IN FAVOR AND TWO OUTSIDE OF THE NOTIFICATION AREA AGAINST, FOR A TOTAL OF SIX RESPONSES RECEIVED. VERY GOOD. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? COUNCILMEMBER WILLIAMS THANK YOU, MAYOR. AND AGAIN, MISS ANGELA, I THINK JUST A COUPLE OF POINTS I'D LIKE FOR YOU TO SPEAK ON CLARIFY. ONE HAS TO DO WITH THE REQUEST TO ALLOW PARKING ALONG THE RIGHT OF WAY ON THACKERAY. CAN YOU PUT THAT UP AND TELL ME, WHAT DO YOU FEEL WILL BE THE IMPACT? AND CAN YOU POINT OUT WHERE ON THACKERAY THIS REQUEST WILL LAND? PLEASE SURE. I THINK TRANSPORTATION STILL IS WOULD IDENTIFY THE APPROPRIATE LOCATION FOR THE PARKING AREA, BUT THE SPACES WOULD BE HERE ALONG THE THACKERAY ROAD PROPERTY TO ENHANCE THE URBAN DESIGN OF CREATING A MORE URBAN FEELING COMMUNITY IN THE AREA. I DON'T BELIEVE THEY'VE IDENTIFIED THE EXACT SPACING AND LOCATION OF THOSE SPACES AS OF YET, BUT THEY WOULD BE INVOLVED IN THAT DISCUSSION. OKAY, SO PARKING ALONG THE RIGHT OF WAY IS A TERM THAT, YES. OKAY. SO THERE WOULD BE ON ON THE EAST SIDE OF ROSE HILL. RIGHT. IT WOULD NOT BE ALONG ROSE HILL. I KNOW I KNOW, IT'LL BE IN THE DEVELOPMENT. IT WOULD ACTUALLY BE IN THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY ALONG THACKERAY ROAD. AND IT WOULD BE A PART OF THE DESIGN OF THIS PARTICULAR ROAD, THAT'S SHOWN HERE. AND THAT WOULD BE A PUBLIC ROAD. OKAY. BUT YOU SAID TRANSPORTATION IS CURRENTLY HAS THAT UNDER STUDY. THEY WOULD DECIDE THE LAYOUOF THAT PARTICULAR ROAD, THE DESIGN OF THAT ROAD. OKAY. THE SECOND THING IS YOU MENTIONED THAT ALSO REQUEST FOR THE P PRIVATELYWNED POCKET PART. CAN YOU POINT ON THAT, ERE THAT WHERE THAT REQUEST WOULD BE THE PRIVATELY OWNED, PUBLIC, PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE POCKET PARK WOULD BE LOCATED HERE. AND IT ALSO SHOWS CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT SO THAT THERE WOULD BE SOME SIDEWALK OR TRAIL ACCESS THROUGH THERE. OKAY. AND THAT'S, THAT'S ALSO DIRECTIONALLY THAT'S ALSO IN THE DEVELOPMENT AS A PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT, CORRECTLY. CORRECT. THAT IS A PART OF THEIR CONCEPT. YES. OKAY. AND YOUR THOUGHTS THERE. I'M SORRY. YOUR THOUGHTS THERE, PLEASE, WE I READ THE RECOMMENDATION, BUT YEAH, WE THOUGHT IT WAS FAVORABLE THAT THEY WOULD PROVIDE ADDITIONAL OPEN SPACE AS A PART OF THIS DEVELOPMENT AND THAT IT WOULD BE ACCESSIBLE TO THE, ADJACENT, RESIDENTS AS WELL. SO WE SAW IT AS A FAVORABLE IDEA. OKAY. OKAY. 
          AND ON THE EXTENSION OF THACKERAY, WOULD YOU WOULD YOU, FOR THE PUBLIC SAY WHERE THACKERAY WOULD INTERSECTS BOTH ON BOTH SIDES WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT WHERE THAT STREET ON BOTH SIDES WOULD EVENTUALLY INTERSECT? SURE. CURRENTLY, THACKERAY ROAD WOULD ALLOW THIS AREA TO CONNECT TO ROSE HILL, AS DEVELOPMENT MAY OCCUR, THE OPPORTUNITY IS TO CONTINUE TO CONNECT FURTHER TO THE EAST AND ALLOW EAST WEST CONNECTION THROUGH THE AREA. RIGHT. AND 
          [01:35:05]
THACKERAY DOES INTERSECT WITH, WITH THE WITH THE I-30 EAST SERVICE ROAD. CORRECT. IT WOULD NOT INTERSECT WITH THE SERVICE ROAD. THERE ARE OTHER ADJACENT ROADS THAT GO NORTH SOUTH THAT WOULD DO THAT. OKAY. THIS WOULD BE AN EXTENSION EAST WEST. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. OKAY. AND BOB TOWN. 
          BOB TOWN IS FURTHER TO THE NORTH. AND SO FOR THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT, IT WOULD NOT PROVIDE AN ACCESS POINT TO BOB TOWN. BUT THERE'S OPPORTUNITY FOR CONNECTIONS NORTH TO BOB TOWN FROM THACKERAY ROAD. OKAY. I ASK THAT QUESTION BECAUSE I THINK I SAW FROM THE DEVELOPER WHERE I SAW SOME INTERSECTION, A RENDERING THAT SHOWED INTERSECTING OUT TO BOB TOWN HERE. AND I ALSO SAW ON THE OTHER SIDE WHERE IT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THACKERAY, BUT ONE OF THOSE CONNECTING STREETS THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY CONNECT TO I-30 FRONTAGE ROAD. YES. FOR, PROJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN, DISCUSSED ON OTHER SITES IN THIS AREA, THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES TO CONNECT THACKERAY ROAD TO BOB TOWN AND ACCESS I-30. BUT FOR THIS PARTICULAR CONCEPT, IT WOULD ONLY INCLUDE THACKERAY ROAD'S EXTENSION EAST WEST. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU MA'AM. THANK YOU MAYOR. VERY GOOD. MAYOR PRO TEM MOORE. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. GREAT PRESENTATION. ANGIE. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, IN RELATION TO THE PARKING ALONG THE STREET WAY, IT SEEMS THAT THAT HAS BEEN A QUESTION, BUT I REMEMBER READING SOMETHING IN THE ENVISIONED GARLAND PLAN WHERE IT RELATES TO THAT PARKING BEING SUGGESTED AND RECOMMENDED. IS THAT RIGHT THERE? THERE'S A SECTION DEDICATED TO INFRASTRUCTURE. I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN SPEAK TO A PARTICULAR POLICY THAT, ENCOURAGES ON STREET PARKING. HOWEVER THE INTRODUCTION OF ON STREET PARKING DOES ENHANCE IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT ENVIRONMENT. AND SO THIS WOULD BE IN LINE WITH THE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT THAT EXISTS TODAY. AND SO THIS RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE A POSITIVE ENHANCEMENT IN THE AREA. VERY GOOD. AND COULD YOU SPEAK TO MAYBE SOME OF THE AMENITIES, SOME OF THE ENHANCEMENTS, SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THE DEVELOPER HAS PUT INTO THIS PLAN THAT WERE NOT NECESSARILY REQUIRED? SURE. I THINK, WE TALKED ABOUT THE POCKET PARK AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THAT AMENITY AND TO DO THE CONNECTIVITY OF THE EXISTING SIDEWALKS AND TRAILS THAT ARE IN THE AREA, FOR THE RETENTION AND RETENTION AREA HERE, I'D HAVE TO ZOOM IN TO SEE THAT OPPORTUNITY, BUT THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THAT, TO HELP WITH DRAINAGE IN, IN THIS PARTICULAR AREA IS SOMETHING THAT WE SEE AS FAVORABLE, IN ADDITION TO THE LANDSCAPING THAT MAY BE ABLE TO OCCUR AROUND THERE, THE APPLICANT MAY PROVIDE A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL ABOUT THEIR PROPOSAL, BUT THEY HAVE WORKED ALLY WELL WITH THE CITY TO PROVIDE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THACKERAY ROAD TO EXTEND THE PUBLIC PARK IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY, AND THEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS DRAINAGE IN THE AREA HAS ALSO BEEN AN ENHANCEMENT FOR THE AREA. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. VERY GOOD. 
          DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUCK. HI YOU KEEP REFERRING TO URBAN CENTER, HAS THIS AREA BEEN MASTER PLANNED? GREAT QUESTION. YES. THERE WAS AN I 30 PLAN THAT WAS ADOPTED A FEW YEARS AGO. 
          PROBABLY ABOUT 20, 1617. AND IT IDENTIFIED A MORE URBAN DEVELOPMENT FOR THIS AREA, THIS SIDE OF ROSE HILL. THERE IS A CONCEPT PLAN THAT IS IDENTIFIED AND APPROVED FOR THIS AREA. AND THIS FURTHER, IMPLEMENTS THAT PARTICULAR PLAN, MAKING IT MORE OF AN URBAN CENTER. SO THAT WOULD INCLUDE RETAIL AND OTHER BUSINESS TYPE THINGS, PROBABLY MORE MULTIFAMILY AS WELL. 
          CORRECT. GREAT QUESTION. SO, WITHIN THIS AREA, WE HAVE OPPORTUNITIES FOR, RETAIL ALONG THE I 30 FRONTAGE. THE CONCEPT PLAN ENCOURAGES THE RETAIL TO BE MORE ALONG THE FRONTAGE ROAD. 
          WITHIN THIS, EAST SIDE OF ROSE HILL, WE LOOK AT MULTIFAMILY OPPORTUNITIES, TOWNHOME OPPORTUNITIES. AND SO THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR INCREASED RESIDENTIAL DENSITY IN THIS AREA. WILL YOU GO BACK TO THE HEIGHT, HEIGHT AND DENSITY RESTRICTIONS FOR THE PROPOSED, SO WAS THERE ANY TALK OF MAKING IT MORE DENSE OR HIGHER OR PUTTING MORE INTO THIS TO FURTHER DEVELOP THAT URBAN FEEL? I WOULD LET THE APPLICANT, DISCUSS WHETHER THEY EXPLORED ANY OTHER OPTIONS. THE PROPOSAL THAT WAS PRESENTED TO US, ENCOURAGED THE DENSITY THAT YOU SEE HERE, AND WE FELT IT WAS IN LINE WITH PD 1820. SO IF THEY WANTED TO GO HIGHER OR MAKE IT MORE DENSE, WHAT WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE IN THE IN THE ASK? WELL, THEY WOULD HAVE TO REVISIT THE PD CONDITIONS THAT THEY ARE CURRENTLY PROPOSING. THANK YOU. OKAY. COUNCILOR HEDRICK, THANK 
          [01:40:08]
YOU. MAYOR. A QUESTION ABOUT THACKERY ROAD AS WELL HAS THE RIGHT OF WAY FOR THIS ALREADY BEEN DEDICATED BECAUSE IT APPEARS THAT THIS SITE IS SHOWN ON THE CONCEPT PLAN, DOESN'T HAVE ACCESS TO RIGHT OF WAY CURRENTLY, THE CONCEPT ONLY SHOWS THE PROPOSAL, THE DEDICATION PROCESS THAT WOULD HAVE TO DEFER TO TRANSPORTATION AS TO WHERE THAT IS CURRENTLY. I AM NOT AWARE OF THE STATUS OF IT AT THIS TIME, AND MAYBE THE APPLICANT MIGHTHT HAVE HA OTHER CONVERSATIONS. YEAH, I'D LIKE TO KNOW JUST BECAUSE THACKERY DOESN'T SHOW UP ON OUR THOROUGHFARE PLAN FOR AN EXTENSION AND I'M JUST CURIOUS HOW THIS CONCEPT PLAN WOULD WORK WITHOUT SHOWING A CONNECTION TO A RIGHT OF WAY. I CAN'T ADDRESS THAT TO SOME DEGREE, THE APPLICANT HAS BEEN IN TALKS WITH PLANNING AND TRANSPORTATION, AND SO THE PROPOSAL TO EXTEND THACKERY ROAD WAS SOMETHING THAT THE CITY FOUND IS FAVORABLE. AND SO IT WOULD BE ADDED TO OUR THOROUGHFARE PLAN IN THE FUTURE. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MAYOR. VERY GOOD. AND COUNCILMEMBER BASS, THANK YOU, MAYOR. THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. ANGELA SO, LOOKING AT THIS ON THE CONCEPT PLAN HERE, AS WELL AS LOOKING AT IT ON GOOGLE. SO I'M LOOKING AT THE ACCESS RIGHT NOW. SO TO THE WEST OF THIS CONCEPT PLANNED IS ROSE HILL RUNNING NORTH SOUTH. 
          CORRECT. AND THEN TO THE NORTH IS BOBTOWN RUNNING EAST WEST. HOWEVER, THERE WILL BE NO ACCESS TO BOBTOWN. AND THEN MY QUESTION IS ON THACKERY, HOW FAR EAST DOES THACKERY CURRENTLY GO TODAY? TODAY, THACKERY ROAD IS, I THINK ONLY EXTENDED TO WHERE YOU SEE THIS PROPOSAL HERE. I WOULD HAVE TO DEFER TO TRANSPORTATION. OKAY. UNFORTUNATELY, ON HOW FAR THE EXISTING THACKERY ROAD, BUT MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT ONLY EXTENDS TO SUPPORTING THIS DEVELOPMENT HERE CURRENTLY. OKAY. AND SO AND THAT'S AND THEN LOOKING AT AT GOOGLE HERE AND I'M I'M I APOLOGIZE THIS ISN'T MY DISTRICT. SO I'M NOT SUPER FAMILIAR WITH THIS AREA. SO THE SO LOOKING EAST OF, ROSE HILL AND WEST OF THIS DEVELOPMENT, THAT GRAY AREA ON THE CONCEPT PLAN THERE, SO ARE THOSE. IS THAT JUST PROPOSED OR IS THAT CURRENTLY BEING DEVELOPED? THIS AREA HERE? YES, WE HAVE PROPOSALS FOR ALL OF THESE DEVELOPMENTS. I DON'T KNOW THE STATUS OF WHERE THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS. OKAY. BECAUSE I'M GUESSING ONCE ALL OF THIS IS DEVELOPED, IEAN, JUST WHAT'S ON THIS CONCEPT PLAN HERE ALONE? I MEAN, ALL OF THIS IS LITERALLY BEING SUPPORTED BY ROAD. THAT'S NOT EVEN THERE YET. I'M GUESSING THAT THE STAFF AND TRANSPORTATION HAS LOOOOKED AT T TRAFFIC THAT'S GOING TO BE THER. I WOULD DEFER TO THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS THAT TRANSPORTATION, REVIEWED. I WILL SAY THAT THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT'S TRANSPORTATION AND ALL THE DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENTS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN THE DISCUSSION TO EXTEND THACKERY ROAD TO OPEN THIS AREA UP FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT. OKAY. YEAH. 
          IT LOOKS LIKE ACCESS IS TO ME, IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A I MEAN, EVEN EVEN WITH THACKERY BEING DEVELOPED, I DON'T KNOW, I OKAY, I JUST KIND OF CURIOUS WHY IT'S NOT CONCEPTUALLY GOING TO BOBTOWN TO BUT OKAY, I'M GOING TO HAVE CRYSTAL MAYBE GIVE US SOME CLARIFICATIONS THERE. THANK YOU. OKAY. OKAY. VERY GOOD. THANK YOU. I'LL WAIT FOR THAT. OKAY. AND I WILL SAY THE CONCEPT JUST DOES NOT SHOW BEYOND THE PROPERTY THAT WE'RE DISCUSSING TODAY. YEAH OKAY. THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU MAYOR. VERY GOOD. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FOR STAFF. THANK YOU, MADAM SECRETARY. IF YOU CALL OUR APPLICANT FORWARD, PLEASE. MAXWELL FISHER. SIR RIGHT. IF YOU COULD GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD ONE MORE TIME AND YOU WILL HAVE TEN MINUTES TO MAK YOUR PRESENTATION. I THINK YOU'VE HEARD A LOT OF THE QUESTIONS. SO YOU'RE. GO AHEAD. MAYOR COUNCIL. 
          MAXWELL FISHER OF ZONE DEV, 2502 GRANDVIEW DRIVE, RICHARDSON, TEXAS, 75080, REPRESENTING STONE HAWK CAPITAL PARTNERS. WE ALSO HAVE, JORDAN COX WITH STONE HAWK CAPITAL HERE AS WELL. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS PROJECT SINCE JANUARY, WE WERE ORIGINALLY GOING TO BUILD THE PROJECT AND DO A PRIVATE DRIVE ONLY TO SERVE OUR DEVELOPMENT AND THEN WE STARTED TO LOOK INTO KIND OF ALL THE DEVELOPMENT THAT'S HAPPENING AROUND IT AT THE SAME TIME. AND THEN THE PD AND THERE WAS A LOT OF COORDINATION AND INVOLVED. AND I THINK WE GOT A GREAT PROJECT THAT, HAS TAKEN, I GUESS, EIGHT, EIGHT MONTHS TO, TO GET TO THIS POINT. SO WE'RE EXCITED. SO STONE HAWK CAPITAL PARTNERS IS A CLASS A DEVELOPER, THEY ARE LOCATED IN DALLAS, THEY BUILD COMMUNITIES THAT ARE, THAT THEIR RESIDENTS CAN BE PROUD OF, AND THEY HAVE A VERY HIGH DEGREE OF AMENITIES THAT THEY PROVIDE. AND THEY HAD A RECENT DEVELOPMENT THAT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION THAT WE'LL TALK ABOUT IN A MINUTE. BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE PROJECTS BACK, THE BECKLEY, WHICH IS 
          [01:45:01]
DEVELOPING IN THE BISHOP ARTS AND TRINITY GROVES AREA. IT'S A HOT AREA AND THEY DO FIRST CLASS DEVELOPMENTS. YOU CAN SEE HERE WITH SOME OF THEIR OPEN SPACES, THEIR ROOFTOP AND THEIR LIVING UNITS ARE, YOU KNOW, HIGH END FURNITURE OR FURNISHINGS IN THEIR KITCHEN THROUGHOUT. THIS IS THE OLSON AND GARLAND. THIS IS WHAT WAS MAY HAVE BEEN REFERENCED. COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS, THIS IS ON BOBTOWN BY QUIKTRIP. THIS IS WHAT WAS A RECENTLY APPROVED AND IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, IT'S 238 UNIT CLASS A DEVELOPMENT. IT HAS A GOLF SIMULATOR IN IT AND TUCK UNDER PARKING AND A LOT OF, ROOFTOP GARDEN, A LOT OF THINGS THAT YOU WOULD BE PROUD OF, OF A MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT, TO CLEAR UP THE, THE PD OR SO THERE'S A THERE'S A LARGER PLAN THAT REQUIRES THAT SAID, THIS AREA WAS A BUSINESS CENTER. AND THEN SINCE THEN, THE CITY HAD INITIATED PD ZONING FOR THIS PROPERTY, THAT SORT OF LAID OUT LAND USE, FOR THIS, THIS INTERSECTION, PD 1820. SO IT WAS IT WAS DONE IN, IN 2018. AND IT CALLS FOR A MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. AND THEN RETAIL ALONG OUR FRONTAGE. WELL RETAIL OR ANY SORT OF COMMERCIAL DOESN'T WORK ALONG OUR FRONTAGE BECAUSE THERE'S ALREADY STORMWATER THERE. AND THAT STORMWATER HAS TO HANDLE NOT ONLY OUR SITE BUT THE STORMWATER FOR THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH, THE TOWNHOME TO THE NORTH. IT'S ALSO THE DEVELOPMENT. THERE'S ALSO DEVELOPMENT HAPPENING TO THE TO THE WEST OF THAT. AND SO THERE'S E WATERSHED REQUIRES IT TO GO TO THE TO THE. SO IT'S NEVER GOING TO BE RETAIL. IT HAS TO BE A DETENTION. AND WE'RE WILLING TO MAKE THAT DETENTION LARGE ENOUGH. THAT WOULD SERVE THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH AS WELL. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THERE'S NO ACCESS. WE CAN'T WE DON'T HAVE DIRECT ACCESS. TXDOT WON'T ALLOW IT BECAUSE OF THE RAMP THERE, SO MANY REASONS OR COUPLE REASONS THAT YOU WOULD NEVER HAVE THAT DEVELOPED AS RETAIL, FOR THIS SECTION, THE CITY OWNS PROPERTY TO THE WEST. THAT COULD BE A RETAIL SITE, SO WE WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF THAT. THIS REQUEST THAT WE'RE IN SUB DISTRICT THREE, IT ALREADY ALLOWS MULTIFAMILY. YOU CAN SEE THE PORTION THAT IS IN OUR RED PROPERTY AREA. THAT'S IN THE YELLOW, THAT IS ALREADY ALLOWED MULTIFAMILY URBAN MULTIFAMILY. 
          WE'RE WANTING TO REALIGN THE SUB DISTRICT LINES. SO THAT WAY IT ALIGN WITH OUR PROPERTY BOUNDARIES. SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE WE'RE DOING THERE WITH THIS REQUEST 271 UNITS. IT'S TWO FOUR STORY BUILDINGS. IT IS URBAN STYLE. WE HAVE CLUBHOUSE, SWIMMING POOL, COURTYARDS, PUBLIC OFF SITE OPEN SPACE. ACTIVE AND PASSIVE OPEN SPACE, TUCK UNDER GARAGES, AS I MENTIONED, CARPORTS, TWO AMENITY AREAS THAT ARE NEAR OUR DETENTION POND SO WE CAN SORT OF MONETIZE THAT SPACE AND THEN TRAIL CONNECTION TO THE NORTH. YOU DON'T SEE THIS TOO OFTEN WHERE YOU. I'LL GET INTO THIS IN A MINUTE. I GUESS. LET ME, LET ME GO OVER. SO WITH OUR CITY, WITH THACKERY BEING A CITY, A PUBLIC ROAD, WE WANT TO HAVE IT TO BE AN URBAN STREET. AND THAT'S WHAT THE PD CALLED FOR, IS TO HAVE AN URBAN MULTIFAMILY. AND SO WE WE'VE DONE SOME ANGLED PARKING THAT THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT HAS REVIEWED. SO THEY'VE LOOKED AT THIS AND IN SOMEWHAT DETAIL, YOU KNOW, NOT SUPER DETAILED BECAUSE THIS IS A CONCEPT PLAN. BUT WE'VE DEFINITELY DESIGNED IT WITH INTENT, WE'LL HAVE BIKE RACKS, BENCHES, TRASH CANS ALONG THAT RIGHT OF WAY. IT WILL BE A PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY THAT THAT EXTENDS. SO WE'RE WE'RE DEDICATING AND I'LL GET TO THAT IN A MOMENT. SO WE'VE HAD A COORDINATED EFFORT WITH TRICON DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS THE DEVELOPMENT, YOUR BOTTOM LEFT, THEY HAVE AN OPEN SPACE THAT THEY'VE ALREADY IT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION. THEY'VE ALREADY DEDICATED IT. WE'VE WE'RE ADDING TO THAT OPEN SPACE TO CREATE A LARGER, CONTIGUOUS OPEN SPACE. WE'LL BE MAINTAINING THAT, ADDING THE AMENITIES, AND IT WILL BE FOR THE PUBLIC. SO WE'RE NOT GETTING IT OFF ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC CAN USE THAT SPACE AND WE'RE GOING TO MAINTAIN IT. LET ME BACK UP. I THINK I MISSED SOMETHING AND WE HAVE A PEDESTRIAN TRAIL THAT CONNECTS, SO I WANT TO SORT OF CLEAR UP THE ACCESS AND UNDERSTAND IT'S THERE'S IT'S EASILY CONFUSED. THERE'S A LOT GOING ON HERE. I'M HOPING WE CAN CLEAR IT UP HERE. SO OUR MAIN ACCESS IS ONLY FROM, FROM ROSE HILL. SO TODAY THACKERY ROAD ONLY EXTENDS THE CONCRETE ONLY EXTENDS TO SERVE THE TRICON DEVELOPMENT. THE TOWNHOUSE DEVELOPMENT ON THE NORTH, ON THE TOP LEFT THERE, THE RIGHT OF WAY HAS ALREADY BEEN DEDICATED BY TRICON. SO THE PART IN BLUE, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THIS SMALL SLIVER, IT'S ALREADY DEDICATED BY PRELIMINARY PLAT, SO THE CITY IS ALREADY GETTING THAT AS RIGHT AWAY WE WOULD BE BUILDING THAT ROAD TO SERVE OUR DEVELOPMENT. SO WE'RE BUILDING THAT ROAD. IT'S ABOUT 1100 LINEAL FEET, INCLUDING WHAT'S ON OUR SITE, AND THEN ONCE IT GETS TO OUR SITE, SORRY, ONCE IT GETS TO OUR SITE, WE'RE DEDICATING THAT RIGHT OF WAY, AND THEN WE'RE BUILDING THE ROAD ALL THE WAY TO OUR EASTERN PROPERTY LINE. AND WHAT THAT DOES IS IN THE FUTURE. SO THE SELLER OF THIS PROPERTY ALSO OWNS THE PROPERTY TO THE EAST. SO THEY HAVE PLANS FOR WITH. 
          SINCE THIS ROAD WILL GO THROUGH, IT WILL BE ABLE TO EXTEND AND CONNECT DOWN TO I-30, WHICH WILL 
          [01:50:03]
HELP ACCESS AND WILL HELP DEVELOP THAT PROPERTY. SINCE WE CAN'T HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO I-30. SO IT WILL HELP SORT OF CARRY OUT THE VISION AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY TO THE EAST. SO IT'S A WIN WIN, AND WE'RE GLAD WE CAN COME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN, IT'S NOT THAT OFTEN YOU HAVE A DEVELOPER THAT WILL SPEND THIS MUCH ON OFF SITE IMPROVEMENTS. 
          YOU'VE GOT THE STORMWATER, YOU'VE GOT THE RIGHT OF WAY DEDICATION AND YOU GOT BUILDING THE ROAD. TO THE DEVELOPMENT, NOT TO MENTION THE OPEN SPACE POCKET PARK. HERE'S A VIEW EAST FROM THACKERY. AS YOU COME IN, WE WANT TO HAVE A NICE ENTRANCE THAT'S KIND OF URBAN. IT KIND OF CREATES A POCKET, POCKET RESIDENTIAL FEEL, WITH A WELL-ARTICULATED BUILDING. THIS IS A NICE VIEW OF THE FOREGROUND OF THE POCKET, POCKET PARK LOOKING SOUTHEAST WITH THE, THE ENTRANCE. THERE IN THE BACK FOR STORY. SO IT WAS IMPORTANT CITY LEADERS ASK US, COUNCILMAN MOOR, ASK US TO, MAKE SURE THAT EVEN THOUGH OUR FRONT DOOR FUNCTIONS OFF OF THACKERY, WE WANTED TO CREATE, SINCE WE'RE VISIBLE FROM I-30, THAT'S ALSO SORT OF A FRONT DOOR FROM A FROM A VIEW CORRIDOR STANDPOINT. SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO CREATE A NICE LANDSCAPING, LANDSCAPE. SO SEVERAL ROWS OF LANDSCAPE, COUPLE ROWS OF TREES THERE, AND REALLY LANDSCAPE THAT UP WITH THE, WITH THE STORMWATER DETENTION GRASS AREA THAT WOULD REMAIN. THERE'S SOME PICTURES OF SOME OF STORM HAWKS DEVELOPMENT, I THINK WHAT'S IMPRESSIVE IN THESE IS THEIR, THEIR ROOFTOP GARDENS ARE GOING OVER THE TOP. THEY HAVE FIREPLACE AND, BILLIARD BILLIARD AREAS AND THEN OTHER SEATING AREAS AND THEN THEIR POOL AND THEY, THEY PLAN THEIR POOLS HAVE, BARS IN THEM, MEANING THAT BARS. BUT BASICALLY SUNKEN AREAS WHERE YOU CAN SIT, AS YOU WOULD FIND IN A RESORT, AND THEN THE, THE HUDSON AND MIDLAND AND THEN THE DEVELOPMENT, THE OLSON AND GARLAND HAS A GOLF SIMULATOR ROOM. THIS IS THEIR GOLF SIMULATOR ROOM. THEY WOULD DO THIS AS WELL AT THIS PROPERTY. SO THEY REALLY GO ABOVE AND BEYOND ON THEIR AMENITIES AND CREATE THINGS THAT YOU DON'T ALWAYS SEE IN MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENTS. THIS IS ACTUALLY WHAT THE SKY LOUNGE, THE OLSON WILL LOOK LIKE. SO YOU CAN SEE FIREPLACE. IT'S REALLY NICE SPACE. YOU WOULD HAVE A REALLY HIGH END HOTEL KIND OF HAS THAT FEEL. HERE'S HOW THE WHOLE DEVELOPMENT TIES AND YOU CAN SEE IT, WE GOT TOWNHOMES TO THE NORTH. SO WE HAVE TWO TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE THAT ARE UNDER ONE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, ONE IS PLANNED, AND THEN MULTIFAMILY WILL BE IS I THINK ALLOWED BY RIGHT ON THE CORNER, AND THEN OUR DEVELOPMENT, WHICH IS SORT OF TUCKED AWAY, MULTIFAMILY. AND I THINK THIS LIKE I SAID, THE CITY OWNS A PIECE TO THE WEST OF HERE, WHICH I BELIEVE IS AT LEAST BEEN DESIGNATED AS A RETAIL, I DON'T KNOW IF I THINK Y'ALL STILL OWN THAT, SO I'LL WRAP UP, SO WE THINK THIS IS AN APPROPRIATE SITE, FOR MULTIFAMILY, WE'VE HAD SIGNIFICANT OFF SITE IMPROVEMENTS, AS I MENTIONED, IN ADDITION TO JUST THE HIGH END DEVELOPMENT, WE THINK IT ALIGNS WITH THE I-30 STUDY OF PROVIDING RENTAL HSING EXPANSION. AND WE'D ASK YOU TO SUPPORT THIS REQUEST, ALIGNS WITH CITY STAFF AND PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION. I ANSWER A QUESTION. I DON'T THINK I ANSWERED ALL THE QUESTIONS, SO I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM NOW. ALL RIGHT. VERY GOOD, COUNSELOR WILLIAMS. GREETINGS AGAIN, SIR. THANK YOU FOR EXCELLENT PRESENTATION HERE. 
          WELL, LET ME GO BACK TO WHAT'S PROBABLY THE MOST DISCUSSED HERE IS THACKERAY. AND, I GOT FEEDBACK FROM THE DEVELOPER. IT WASN'T. IT WASN'T YOU, BUT I MET WITH THEM, AND THEY SHARED WITH ME THAT THAT THERE'S A THERE'S A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY JUST TO THE EAST OF ROSE HILL. AND THACKERAY. THACKERAY GOES INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD? YES. OKAY. AND THE CONCERN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WAS WHEN THEY HEARD ABOUT EXTENSION AND THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY THEY DISCUSSED WITH THE DEVELOPERS IS FLOW THROUGH TRAFFIC AND THE IMPACT OF TRAFFIC. BUT I SAW AN AERIAL RENDERING WHERE THE STREET THROUGH THAT NEIGHBORHOOD EVENTUALLY, EVENTUALLY INTERSECTS WITH THE SERVICE ROAD WITH OUR 30 SERVICE ROAD GOING SOUTH, I GUESS IT WOULD BE. 
          YEAH, YEAH, CONNECT. AND THAT'S WHY I RAISED THE QUESTION ABOUT WHETHER THACKERAY WAS GOING TO ALSO INTERSECT WITH BOBTOWN. BUT WHAT WHAT I'M HEARING FROM THEM THAT INDICATED THAT IT WOULD INTERSECT THERE WOULD BE ACCESS TO THACKER OFF OF BOBTOWN. IS THAT. YES. SO THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT I WAS UNDERSTOOD. THAT'S WHAT I UNDERSTOOD. THAT'S WHAT I UNDERSTOOD, WAS ALSO EXPLAINED TO THE RESIDENTS OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. SO CAN YOU. THAT'S WHAT. AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS TOLD. SO IS THAT NOT THE CASE? YEAH. NO IT IS. I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW THAT I FOLLOWED EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE ASKING, BUT SO IN FACT, WHAT I'M ASKING IS WHAT I'M ASKING IS WHERE DOES ONCE, 
          [01:55:05]
ONCE THE EXTENSION OF THACKERAY IS DONE, WHERE WILL IT INTERSECTS. SO WE ARE ONLY ABLE TO DEDICATE WHAT'S ON, WHAT WE HAVE CONTROL OVER, WHICH IS TO THE EASTN EDGE OF OUR PROPERTY. WE CANNOT DEDICATE ANYTHING BEYOND THAT. HOWEVER, YOU'LL SEE THERE T THE PART THAS IN YELLOW, WHERE THACKERAY WOULD TURN NORTH, THAT WOULD CONNECT TO THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE NORTH. 
          THAT TOWNHOME DEVELOPMENT, AND THEN THAT WOULD CONNECT UP SO THAT I THINK THAT MAYBE THAT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION AS FAR AS IF THACKERAY WILL CONNECT TO THE NORTH. OKAY, AND THEN AS FAR AS WE DID MEET WITH PARKS OF ROSE HILL, WE MET WITH THE HOA, I KNOW, YEAH. AND SO, THEY HAVE THEIR A CROSSROADS HILL, BUT YES, WE SHARE THAT'S THE COMMUNITY THAT I'M REFERRING TO. 
          YES, WE SHARE. THE INTERSECTION OF THACKERAY AND ROSE HILL, BUT THAT'S A FULL MEDIAN CUT, ACCESS POINT. SO, YOU KNOW, IT'LL BE IT'LL BE A STOP STOP SIGN, CONTROLLED ACCESS POINT, WE HAD A POSITIVE MEETING WITH THEM, AND THEY APPRECIATED SHARING WHAT WE WERE PROPOSING, AND, APPRECIATED THE POCKET PARK, BEING PUBLIC, MR. MAYOR. YES, SIR. GO AHEAD, I THINK I CAN HELP A LITTLE BIT HERE. WE'RE GETTING FAR ENOUGH OFF SITE TO WHERE THAT SHOULD NOT BE A CONSIDERATION FOR THIS PROPOSAL, BECAUSE NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT OF WAY THAT THEY DON'T HAVE CONTROL OF THAT THEY DON'T CURRENTLY OWN. AND IT'S CERTAINLY NOT A DEDICATION THAT'S RELATED TO THIS SITE. THEY CAN'T CONTROL WHAT THE CITY DOES WITH THACKERAY IN THE FUTURE DOWN THE WAY. AND SO I THINK THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL IN Y'ALL'S AS Y'ALL DECIDE THIS CASE. THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU, THANK YOU SIR. I'LL BACK I JUST I JUST WANT TO CLARITY FROM YOU BECAUSE LIKE I SAID, I'D GOTTEN FEEDBACK FROM THE DEVELOPER AND I WANTED TO HEAR THE SAME THING FROM FROM YOU AS FAR AS BEING ON THE SAME PAGE ABOUT THIS. ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU, MAYOR. THANK YOU. DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUCK, I REALLY LIKE THIS PLAN. AND CONSIDERING THAT IT'S PART OF A LARGER MASTER PLAN, TO URBANIZE THE AREA, I'M WONDERING WHY YOU STOPPED AT FOUR STORIES. YEAH, I APPRECIATE THAT QUESTION. SO WHEN YOU GO. AND FIRST OFF, I KNOW FOR A FACT YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN ASKED THAT QUESTION BEFORE. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY A FIRST TIME, A COUPLE TIMES BEFORE. BUT VERY RARE. NOT IN THIS CITY. YOU HAVEN'T NOT IN THIS CITY. YOU HAVEN'T, SO WHEN YOU GO FROM 4 TO 5 STORY, IT GETS VERY EXPENSIVE. BUT THEN IT ALSO YOU HAVE TO PARK IT. AND SO THE EXPENSE AND WHAT WE'RE HAVING TO SPEND SO MUCH ON THE CONSTRUCTING THACKERAY BASICALLY. AND THEN THE OPEN SPACE AMENITIES, THE STORMWATER, AND THEN NOT HAVING A NAIL TO PARK THAT, THAT IT JUST, IT'S JUST NOT FEASIBLE TO DO MORE THAN WHAT WE'RE SHOWING, OTHERWISE WE WOULD CONSIDER IT. IT PROBABLY WOULD REQUIRE SOME OF PARKING GARAGES KIND OF THINGS, BUT THAT WOULD ALLOW YOU TO GO HIGHER IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THAT DEVELOPMENT. SO, JUST SAYING I WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF A HIGHER DENSITY HERE. I THINK IT'S THE PERFECT PLACE FOR IT, CONSIDERING THE, THE NEIGHBORS YOU HAVE TO THE EAST AND THE WEST, WHICH IS NOTHING. SO I, I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE BECAUSE I DO I DO REALLY LIKE THIS DEVELOPMENT. I'VE LOOKED AT THE OTHER DEVELOPMENTS, THIS, THAT, THAT THEY'VE BROUGHT TO THE TABLE IN OTHER CITIES AND, I, I THINK THAT WOULD BE REALLY AWESOME IN THIS SPACE. SO THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. VERY GOOD. MAYOR PRO TEM MORE. I'M THINKING THAT, WE STILL HAVE THE APPLICANT CORRECT TO COME BEFORE US. YOU ARE REPRESENTING THE APPLICANT PRESENTLY? YES. OKAY. VERY GOOD. OKAY. THAT YOU CAN STILL COME? YEAH. COME ON, COME ON, AM I LAST SO FAR? ALL RIGHT. OKAY. BUT YOU KNOW HOW THIS WORKS, RIGHT? OKAY. WELL FIRST OF ALL, MAXWELL, WOULD YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE? I THINK I WANT TO SEE THE ONE WHERE YOU CAN SEE INTERSTATE 30, ALONG WITH THE, THE TOTAL CONCEPT, THERE WAS ONE WHERE YOU ACTUALLY, OKAY, WAS ABLE TO. THIS ONE, THAT ONE, THAT ONE. THERE COUNCIL. REALLY? THIS, THIS PLAN PRESENTLY IS IN DIRECT. I MEAN, EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE DONE FOR THE PAST, SINCE 2016, SINCE MY ACTUALLY COMING ON TO COUNCIL, IT STARTED OUT WITH THE I 30 CATALYST STUDY, AND THIS IS KIND OF THE CONCEPT THAT, REALLY JUST INTRIGUED ME. AND I'VE TALKED ABOUT IT CONSTANTLY, $100,000 STUDY THAT I THOUGHT WE HAD PUT ON THE SHELF, BUT IT WAS NOT PUT ON THE SHELF. FROM THERE WE WENT TO THE ENVISION GARLAND. WE HAVE A CONCEPT PLAN, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE PRESENTLY IS ABOUT WHAT'S TAKING PLACE HERE WITH THIS SITE. AND I'M JUST VERY APPRECIATIVE TODAY 
          [02:00:02]
THAT, MAXWELL AND STONE HAWK SEEM LIKE YOU'VE KIND OF PARDONED IT TO A CERTAIN EXTENT WITH TRICON THAT HIGHWAY OR THAT THACKERY ROAD COMING THROUGH THERE IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW WAS PLANNED INITIALLY, BUT IN ORDER TO BRING ABOUT A CONCEPT THAT'S GOING TO BE CONSISTENT, I THINK THAT THAT ROAD IS REALLY GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT IN THE FUTURE IT'S GOING TO GO BACK OUT TO BOBTOWN AND MAYBE EVEN FIND A WAY OUT TO I-30 AGAIN TO GIVE US SOME TYPE OF INTEREST AND EXIT THERE. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY FOR ME, THIS PLAN IS ACTUALLY DOING WHAT I PLATFORMED WHEN I CAME INTO THE CITY TO DO. AND THAT WAS SOUTH. GARLAND REALLY DID NOT FEEL THAT THEY WERE GETTING ANY OF THE PROJECTS. THEY FELT THAT THEY WERE THE ARMPIT OF THE COMMUNITY, THAT ALL THE MONEY WAS GOING NORTH AND WHAT I SEE HERE IS THAT WE DO HAVE A CONCEPT NOW THAT IF YOU REMEMBER, WE ACTUALLY PURCHASED LAND, WE HAVE SOME PURCHASE LAND OUT HERE AND THAT LAND HOPEFULLY IS GOING TO GO FOR SOME TYPE OF UPSCALE RETAIL. IT'S GOING TO GO FOR SOME TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT OUT THERE. AND SO WE HAVE THE MULTIFAMILY, WE HAVE THE SINGLE FAMILY RIGHT BEHIND IT. THAT CONCEPT, RIGHT THERE IS COMMENSURATE WITH EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE BEEN SPENDING MONEY TO DO. AND SO AS A R RESULT OF THAT, I'M VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THE MANNER BY WHICH YOU'VE COME IN AND TO WORK WITH TRICON ATTEMPTED TO WORK WITH THE CITY, THAT THAT WATER BASIN THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. HOW MANY DOLLARS ARE GOING TO BE SPENT ON THAT? THOSE ARE THE INFRASTRUCTURE TYPES OF THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR. SO WITH THAT, MR. MAYOR, IF THERE ARE NO OTHERS, LET ME SEE IF I'VE GOT ANY OTHER SPEAKERS. BUT I SEE WHERE YOU'RE GOING. THANK YOU. MAXWELL IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? I SEE NONE. MAYOR PRO TEM MOORE, BACK TO YOU. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. WITH ALL THAT WE'VE HEARD AT THIS POINT, I'D LIKE TO MOVE FOR APPROVAL OF THE PD AND THE CONCEPT PLAN AS PRESENTED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM SIX E AS PRESENTED FOR MAYOR PRO TEM MOORE, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILMEMBER BASS SEEING NO FURTHER DISCUSSION. MADAM SECRETARY, CAN YOU PRAY THE VOTE FOR US, PLEASE? COUNCIL AND DISPLAY THE VOTE. AND THAT ITEM IS APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU GENTLEMEN. NEXT ITEM IS ITEM SIX F RECONSIDERATION REQUEST OF 
          [f.  Reconsideration Request of a Previously Denied Zoning Application (File No. Z 22-28, IBC Construction, LLC, District 1) Sunny S. Randhawa who represents IBC Constructions, LLC has submitted a written request to the City Council to reconsider the previously denied Zoning Case Z 22-28 (IBC Construction, LLC). This property is located at 1270 Pleasant Valley Road. The City Council previously considered and denied this application on July 2, 2024. Approval of the reconsideration request would allow the applicant to submit a new zoning application in less than the Garland Development Code's required one-year waiting period for denied cases.  ]
A PREVIOUSLY DENIED ZONING APPLICATION. THIS WAS ZONING FILE NUMBER Z 22 DASH 28 IBC CONSTRUCTION, LLC IN DISTRICT ONE. I SHOULD PREFACE SOME OF THIS WITH ONE, WE DO NOT HAVE A STAFF PRESENTATION ON THIS. I'M SURE YOU ALL RECALL THIS WAS A ZONING CASE, FROM A FEW WEEKS BACK, THE ZONING CASE WAS DENIED, WITH COUNCIL MEMBERS. BASS, WILLIAMS, THE MAYOR, AND A LET'S SEE, WILLIAMS, DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM LUCHT AND COUNCILMEMBER DUTTON, ON THE PREVAILING SIDE, THE APPLICANT, HAS ASKED FOR A RECONSIDERATION, THE PROCESS WILL BE, THE APPLICANT WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT NEW INFORMATION ON THIS CASE, AND THE AND THE COUNCIL CAN DECIDE ON A RECONSIDERATION. HOWEVER, THE MOTION FOR THE RECONSIDERATION CAN ONLY COME FROM THE COUNCIL MEMBERS THAT I NAMED WHO EARLIER, WHO WERE ON THE PREVAILING SIDE. NOW, IT CAN BE SECONDED BY ANYBODY, BUT IT HAS TO BE THE MOTION HAS TO BE MADE, BY SOMEONE ON THE PREVAILING SIDE. IF THERE IS NO MOTION TO APPROVE THE ITEM DIES. 
          ALL RIGHT. SO WITH THAT, MADAM SECRETARY, DO WE HAVE THE APPLICANT HERE WITH US THIS EVENING? YES, SIR. THANK YOU. MAYOR. MR. MAXWELL FISHER. ALL RIGHT. ONE MORE TIME, MAN. YOU RECOMMENDED ME ON THIS ONE, SO I'M. I'M NOT GOING AROUND JUST GETTING EVERYBODY AND ALSO AND I AND ALSO, I NEED TO ADD BEFORE MR. FISHER GETS STARTED, WE ARE NOT HERE TONIGHT TO REHEAR A ZONING CASE. WE ARE HERE TO DISCUSS NEW INFORMATION. IF THERE IS ANY, AND DECIDE ON A RECONSIDERATION. MAYOR COUNCIL. I'LL BE VERY BRIEF AND KEEP IT TO THE PURVIEW OF BRIAN ENGLAND'S, CHARGE HERE, MAXWELL FISHER, ZONED F2502 GRANDVIEW DRIVE, RICHARDSON, TEXAS, 75080, REPRESENTING ABC CONSTRUCTION, I'M GOING TO THROW THE MY CLIENT UNDER THE BUS. AND THERE'S SOME THINGS WE COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY WITH THIS APPLICATION. AND WE WANT A CHANCE TO DO THAT. THINGS THAT WOULD BE CHANGING IS, IS THAT WE WOULD LIKELY COME BACK WITH A 
          [02:05:02]
PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT THAT WOULD CHANGE SOME OF THE LAND USES. THAT WOULD BE ALLOWED TO UNDERSTAND, THE COMMUNITY DIDN'T LIKE SOME OF THE LAND USES. THE CITY DIDN'T WANT. SOME OF THE LAND USES. SO WE WOULD LOOK AT THAT. WE WOULD LOOK AT CHANGING THE SCALE OF SOME OF THE LAND USES THAT WOULD, THAT WERE POTENTIALLY PROPOSED AND LOOK AT MAYBE REPROGRAMING WHAT'S DEVELOPED THERE. AND WE WOULD ALSO MEET WITH THE NEIGHBORS AND GET THEIR OPINION ON WHAT WOULD BE BEST AND WORK WITH SOME OF THE OTHER WORK WITH, WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, RETAIL BROKER THA, THAT I KNOW THAT I THINK WOULD BE GOOD FOR THIS SITE, SO WE JUST WANT AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT. WE THINK THAT'S NEW INFORMATION THAT'S BEEN BROUGHT BEFORE YOU ALL TONIGHT, AND WE'LL COME BACK WITH A REPACKAGED APPLICATION. WE'D LIKE TO APPRECIATE YOU ALL NOT HAVING TO WAIT A WHOLE NOTHER YEAR TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING THAT WORKS FOR THIS PROPERTY. 
          VERY GOOD. MR. CITY ATTORNEY. DOES THAT FALL UNDER NEW INFORMATION OR NEW? THE PROMISE OF IS IT'S INTERESTING BECAUSE, IT'S NEW INFORMATION, BUT IT'S REALLY ALMOST A NEW PLAN THAT HE'S, HE'S HE'S PROPOSING AT THIS POINT, WHICH IS ONLY NEW INFORMATION BECAUSE IT'S A NEW PLAN. IT'S NOT THE SAME PLAN AS WHAT HE'S WHAT HE'S SEEMS TO BE INDICATING TO COUNCIL. YOU CAN CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG. MAXWELL, AND SO IT'S IFFY, BUT IT'S IN THE PURVIEW OF THE COUNCIL TO DETERMINE WHETHER THAT'S NEW INFORMATION OR NOT. IT'S REALLY NOT A LEGAL MATTER IN THAT SENSE. IF YOU ALL FEEL LIKE THAT'S ENOUGH INFORMATION THAT WOULD LEAD Y'ALL TO BELIEVE THAT IF THAT INFORMATION WAS PRESENTED AT THE LAST SESSION, EVEN IF IT WAS ALTERED THE PRESENTED PLAN A LITTLE BIT AT THAT TIME, THEN Y'ALL COULD CERTAINLY VOTE IN FAVOR OF THAT. 
          IF HE GOT A MOTION FROM SOMEBODY THAT WAS ON THE PREVAILING PARTY LAST TIME. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION. AND AGAIN, SINCE WE'RE NOT HERE TO DISCUSS THE DETAILS, COUNCIL, YOU HAVE HEARD, THE, YOU'VE HEARD THE PRESENTATION. COUNCILMEMBER WILLIAMS, HAVE A QUESTION FOR CITY ATTORNEY? JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, SO GIVEN HERE TONIGHT, GIVEN THE MAYOR'S QUESTION, THEY COME BACK. OKAY. IT'S ESSENTIALLY A NEW CASE GOING BACK THROUGH THE PROCESS OR WHAT CAN YOU CLEAR THAT UP? IT'LL IT'LL COME DIRECTLY TO COUNCIL, IT WON'T GO BACK THROUGH PLANNING COMMISSION, BUT WE WILL HAVE TO REPUBLISH IT AND WE'LL HAVE TO POST NOTICE, JUST LIKE WE ALWAYS DO. RIGHT. IT'LL COME BACK. AND THE QUESTION FOR YOU ALL TONIGHT IS, HAS MAXWELL GIVEN YOU ALL ENOUGH INFORMATION, NEW INFORMATION TO LEAD YOU TO BELIEVE THAT, THE PROJECT WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE FOR THIS LOCATION, BASED ON THE STATEMENTS THAT HE MADE TONIGHT. 
          OKAY SO IT'LL COME DIRECTLY BACK TO COUNCIL, NOT P AND Z, RIGHT. THANK YOU SIR. THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          VERY GOOD. AND COUNCIL MEMBER BASS. THANK YOU, MAYOR, I, I THINK THAT THAT, ENOUGH INFORMATION HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO MERIT RECONSIDERATION. SO, LIKE, THE MOTION TO APPROVE RECONSIDERATION OF THE PREVIOUSLY DENIED ZONING APPLICATION. Z 22 DASH 28 I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMEMBER BASS AND A SECOND, JUST BECAUSE I HEARD HIM BY COUNCIL MEMBER WILLIAMS, TO A MOTION TO FOR A MOTION FOR A RECONSIDERATION OF THIS CASE, THAT WOULD COME BACK TO US, OBVIOUSLY, AT A LATER DATE, SO AGAIN, THE MOTION IS TO APPROVE A RECONSIDERATION COUNCIL. AND DISPLAY THE VOTE, PLEASE. THE MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION PREVAILS WITH COUNCIL MEMBER DUTTON IN OPPOSITION. OTHERWISE KNOWN AS 8 TO 1. THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH, COUNCIL. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. LOTS OF LOTS OF, LOTS OF ZONING CASES FOR US TO WORK THROUGH TONIGHT. AND I KNOW WE'RE KIND OF PUSHING ON TIME THAT WE NORMALLY GO. SO THANK
