acres, generally located at 3480 FM 544, south of FM 544, approximately 210
feet east of McCreary Road.
Mr. Lee stated that the applicant is proposing to construct a Rosa's Café Restaurant with a drive-
through facility, with outside dining and patio. The facility will be approximately 7,000 square
feet on a 1.62 acres tract of land. The property is located within Woodbridge Crossing Addition,
which is a Planned Development Ordinance 2008-43.
Access to the development is provided via existing fire lane and access easements along the east,
west and southern boundaries of the property. The landscape plan exceeds the requirements set
forth within the Planned Development Conditions and Zoning Ordinance.
Ms. Kopchenko complimented the elevations of the proposed facility, and questioned if the brick
match the existing surrounding structures. Mr. Lee stated that the proposed facility will conform
in color of the existing structures.
Chairman Tamez stated that the parking exceeds the requirement, and questioned if additional
handicap parking will be included. Mr. Lee stated that temporary handicap parking can be added
at any time when there is a need.
Commissioner Smith asked where was the nearest Rosa's Café, and if it were an established
business. Mr. Lee stated that there is one at 121 and Josey Lane, and the proposed restaurant will
be number 30 in Texas.
With no questions for the applicant, a motion was made by Commissioner Dahl, and seconded by
Commissioner Smith, to approve the Site Plan for Woodbridge Crossing, Block A, Lot 4R for a
6,940 square foot restaurant with drive-through facility on 1.62 acres, generally located at 3480

2. Consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a Final Plat for
Torres Addition, Block A, Lot 1, creating one single family residential lot
on 2.0 acres, generally located at 950 Hensley Lane, south of Hensley
Lane and approximately 1,872 feet west of Sanden Boulevard.
Mr. Lee stated that the subject property was annexed into the city in the mid 1990's, and was
never platted. The property is zoned Ag/30 and totals 2 acres,with approximately 872 feet of
depth and only 100 feet of width.
The property owner desires to construct a single family residential house. However, due to
unique configuration the owner has requested a variance from Zoning Board of Adjustment
for the side yards and minimum width requirements.
The Final Plat does dedicate 44 feet of rights-of-way for future improvements along Hensley
Lane, and substantially conforms to the city's Land Use Plan.
Commissioner Kirk questioned if there is an existing structure on the property and if the
approval of the Final Plat is subject to approval of requested variances from the Zoning —W

Board of Adjustment. Mr. Lee recommended that the Commissioners recommend approval
of the Final Plat as submitted, it is more legislative than judicial.
Commissioner Kopchenko questioned if the property was legally conforming in 1998. Mr.
rill
Lee stated that there was a house on the property in 1998 and it was legally non-conforming.
Ms. 011ie stated that for clarification purposes, when the property was annexed into the city,
there was no AG/30 zoning category. In 2004, the city created the AG/30 category, thereby
making the property legally non-conforming. The Commission tonight, is approving the
boundaries, and the Zoning Board of Adjustment will be approving making the lot a legally
conforming lot in order to start construction. When the Final Plat is considered by City
Council, the approval/denial from Zoning Board of Adjustment will be in place, and if
approved will become a legal conforming tract of land.
With no questions for the applicant, a motion was made by Commissioner Smith, and
seconded by Commissioner Kopchenko, to recommend approval to the City Council for the
Final Plat for Tones Addition, Block A, Lot 1, creating one single family residential lot on
2.0 acres, generally located at 950 Hensley Lane, south of Hensley Lane and approximately
1,872 feet west of Sanden Boulevard. Motion carried 5—O.
3. Consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a Preliminary
Plat for Aaron Davis Addition, a property of 4.390 acres located on Parker
Road 950' west of Country Club.
Mr. Lee stated that the subject property is located within the city's Extraterritorial
Jurisdiction and not within the city limits. The applicant desires to develop a landscaping
business with open storage for mulch and other landscape equipment and a possible
structure. Since the property is not within the city limits no Site Plan is required and
there will be no regulations of the architectural design or zoning.
The Plat does propose a 20 foot right-of-way easement for the expansion of Parker Road.
When the Final Plat is submitted, the final right-of-way dedication will be determined.
At this point TxDot has not made the final dedications with Collin County.
With no questions for the applicant, a motion was made by Commissioner Kopchenko,
and seconded by Commissioner Kirk, to recommend approval to City Council for the
Preliminary Plat for Aaron Davis Addition, a property of 4.390 acres located on Parker
Road 950' west of Country Club. Motion carried 5—O.
