ACTION AGENDA
1. Consider and act upon approval of a Site Plan for Allen Exchange Building,
generally located south of Exchange Street and east of Regency Drive, and being
more specifically described Lot 8, Block E of the Regency Business Park Phase 2
Addition.
Ms. 011ie stated that the applicant is proposing a single story masonry building on one lot.
The lot totals 11, 300 square feet (0.259 acres). The property was platted in 1987 as Lot
8, Block E of the Regency Business Park Addition Phase 2.
The property is currently zoned Business Center (BC) District, and was rezoned in
February 2002 from Industrial (I). Office/Warehouse is a permitted use within the current
Business Center(BC) District.
With no questions for the applicant or staff, a motion was made by Commissioner Ames,
and seconded by Commissioner Alexander, to approve the Site Plan for an
office/warehouse building on one lot located at 2800 Exchange Street, being a 0.259 acre
tract of land in the Regency Business Park Addition, Phase Two. Motion carried 7—0.
2. Consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a Preliminary Plat for
Braddock Place Addition Phase I, generally located west of South Stone Road and
south of Elm Drive, and being more specifically described as a 53.770 acre tract
of land situated in the E. M. Price Survey, Abstract No. 725, The William Sutton
Survey, Abstract No. 860, The D. W. Williams Survey, Abstract No. 980, and the
Nathanial Atterbury Survey, Abstract No. 1099, Collin County, Texas,
(D.R.C.C.T.), said tract being a part of a 53.42 acre tract of land conveyed by deed
to Mrs. Thelma Rice by Lone Star Boat Co., Recorded in Volume 561, Page 226,
Deed Records, Collin County, Texas (D.R.C.C.T.), save and except parcels taken
for Road Right-of-Way.
Ms. 011ie stated that the property totals 53.770 acres and will create 85 residential lots.
The subject property is part of the larger Braddock Place Addition Planned Development
(PD 2005-24), which consists of Single-Family Residential of varying densities, and
Common Open Spaces. The entire Planned Development is 185.1449 acres in size, and
was the subject of a Zoning Case approved by City Council on July 26, 2005.
The Preliminary Plat substantially conforms to the approved Conditions of the Planned
Development District, but varies from that of the Development Plan. The Development
Plan depicts a single loaded street at the south side of the park just south of Future Elm
Road. However, the Preliminary Plat proposes that the rear of these lots abut the park,
therefore creating a double loaded street for Street "B".

The layout of Temporary Road through Block A, Lot X and the future connection of
Street "A" to Future Elm Road must be reconciled. Lot 10, Block A shall serve as a
detention and drainage lot and shall be dedicated to and maintained by the HOA.
Ryan Betz, Skorburg Company, 3838 Oak Lawn, Suite 1212, Dallas, Texas, represented
developer, and distributed amended Preliminary Plat for consideration, and stated that the
development will be bar ditched and no sidewalks. The proposed Plat creates lots
measuring 18,000 square feet.
The Commissioners discussed with Mr. Betz the variance of the approved Zoning Change
and the amended Preliminary Plat, which was distributed tonight and not previously
reviewed by Staff. After the discussion, Mr. Betz agreed to making the following
amendments: improvements to Street AF shall be constructed per the Subdivision
Regulations, unless superseded by an agreement between the City and the developer;
block A, lot 10 shall be privately owned and maintained by HOA and shall be fenced to
separate the lot from the park with tubular steel in wrought iron design eight-feet in
height, and block A, lots 1 — 9 shall have open fencing or living screen if a fence is not
constructed adjacent to the park, but all lots shall be consistent.
Commissioners questioned Ms. Manson if the Preliminary Plat received by Mr. Betz, can
be reviewed before the City Council meeting on December 6, 2005, and Ms. Manson
concurred that staff will review.
A motion was made by Commissioner Byboth, and seconded by Commissioner Hemphill,
to recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat distributed by applicant at the meeting, for
Braddock Place Addition Phase 1, generally located west of South Stone Road (Old F.M.
544) and south of Elm Drive, with the following stipulations; Improvements to Street AF
shall be constructed per the Subdivision Regulations unless superseded by the agreement
between the City and developer; Block A, LotlO shall be privately owned and maintained
by HOA, shall be fenced to separate the lot from the park with tubular steel in wrought
iron design eight feet in height; and block A, lots 1-9 shall have open fencing or living
screen if a fence is not constructed adjacent to the park, but all lots shall be consistent.
Motion carried 5 —2, with Commissioners Alexander and Ames voting in opposition.
3. Consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a Preliminary Plat for
Shahi Group Addition, generally located south of S.H. 78 N and west of Spring
Creek Parkway, and being more specifically described as a tract of land situated in
the Francisco De La Pina Survey, Abstract no. 688, Collin County, Texas, and
being a called 2.0636 acre tract of land recorded in Volume 5532, Page 383, Deed
Records of Collin County, Texas.

zoned Commercial Corridor (CC) District and has never been platted.

However, the Developer made significant changes to the site plan which required
additional staff review and will be presented with or prior to the submittal of the Final

Alexander, and seconded by Commissioner Gregg, to recommend approval to the City
Council for the Preliminary Plat for Shahi Group Addition, generally located south of
S.H. 78 N and west of Spring Creek Parkway. Motion carried 7—0.
