REGULAR AGENDA
Action Agenda
1. Consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a Final Plat for
Pecan Creek Addition, Block A, Lots 1 - 5, creating five legal lots of
record on 6.236 acres. The property is generally located west of Whitley
and north of Elm Grove Road within Dallas County.
Ms. 011ie stated that the Final Plat will create five (5) lots, ranging in size from .507 acres
to 2.503 acres. The property is located within the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction of the City
of Wylie, and cannot be annexed into Wylie due to lack of contiguity. The plat dedicates
a private access easement on the northwest.
Under a separate instrument, the ingress, egress and access easements were platted and
will remain in effect.
With no questions for the applicant or staff, a motion was made by Vice-Chairman
Larson, and seconded by Commissioner Osborne, to recommend approval to the City
Council regarding a Final Plat for Pecan Creek Addition, Block A, Lots 1-5, creating five
legal lots of record on 6.236 acres. The property is generally located west of Whitley and
north of Elm Grove Road within Dallas County. Motion carried 5 —0.
2. Consider and act upon approval of a Site Plan for a multi-family
development on a single lot consisting of 1.462 acres, generally located at
the southwest corner of Cotton Belt Avenue and Fleming Street.
Ms. 011ie stated that back in 2005, a plat and Site Plan was approved for the subject
property as Pinehurst Addition. The plat was never filed, the site plan expired and the
ownership has changed. The current owner and applicant is Habitat for Humanity. They
are proposing their very first multi-family development on a single lot. The Cotton Belt
Addition will accommodate five individual buildings 2,790 square feet in size.
The Commission approved a Preliminary Plat and a Concept Plan on October 6, 2009.
The corresponding replat is on the current agenda for consideration. The only difference
between the Concept Plan and proposed site plan is the incorporation of an abandoned
alley. In 2005, the 12 foot alley to the west of the property was abandoned by ordinance.
The applicant has recently purchased and incorporated the 12 feet into the proposed site
plan. The incorporation of the abandoned alley will allow the applicant to add more
landscape and adjust the building line in relation to the new property line. The applicant
will pour new concrete on Cotton Belt and extend it south to the railroad tracks.
Mr. Kenny Nall, and Ms. Penny Diaz, Domus Studio Group, P.O. Box 861208, Plano,
Texas, representative for the applicant stated that the 12 foot abandoned alley was just
purchased and it was not included on the concept plan. The additional 12 feet allotted for
footprint of the buildings to be revised and ability to preserve additional trees.
