DISCUSSION ITEMS
ITEM NO. 1: Discuss an informal presentation from Carter—Burgess, Engineers/Planners for

known as Birmingham Park. Brad Meyer and Karen Porter, Engineer and Planner, respectively,
for Carter- Burgess, 7950 Elmbrook Drive, Dallas, Texas 75247; Skip Hynek and John Wells of
Wylie Bilco, Inc., Dallas, Texas were present to present this proposal. A preliminary proposal
booklet was passed out to commission members for their perusal. A session of questions and
answers commenced amongst the Commission members, Carter—Burgess and Wylie Bilco, Inc.
Stuart Allison brought up the point that Wylie Bilco's Residential zoning is not up to our current
minimum lot requirements. Rich Eckman questioned whether there would be a joint workshop
with City Council. This was discussed and it was decided that arrangements should be made for
this to happen prior to a decision being made on this proposal.
ITEM NO. 2: Discuss possible conflicts between our Zoning Ordinance and the Animal Control
Ordinance relating to allowable zoning in which to accommodate stables. It was discussed and
taken under advisement. A copy of a neighboring city's Animal Control Ordinances was
submitted to Mike Phillips, Director of Community Development for perusal. A public hearing
will be necessary to make any changes in the existing ordinances.

ITEM NO. 3: Discuss possible change in our Zoning Ordinance to allow for kennels in
Agricultural zoned district. A "pound" is permitted in an Agricultural district, but
there is nothing pertaining to kennels. Kennels are permitted in B-1, B-2 and Industrial. There
was some discussion that we may need to require a definition for "pound" in the Zoning
Ordinance due to the fact that a pound is permitted in an Agricultural district. A public hearing
would again be necessary to make any changes in the Zoning Ordinances.
ADJOURN: A motion was made by Cecelia Wood and seconded by John Crowe to adjourn.
Motion carried, all in favor (7 votes). Chairman Peddicord adjourned the meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
