PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1987
ITEM NO. 1 - APPROVAL OF MINUTES - No additions or
corrections.
ITEM NO. 2 - ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN FOR P&Z - Not an
appropriate area for staff comment .
ITEM NO. 3 - ELECTION OF VICE-CHARIMAN FOR P&Z - Not an
appropriate area for staff comment .
ITEM NO. 4 - APPROVAL OF REPLAT OF SECTION OF WYNDHAM
ESTATES - This replat of Wyndham Estates concerns only that
section outlined in bold in your packet on page 6 . The
change is minor and involves the building line for the "0"
lot line houses in this PD section. The original replat
called for the building line to be on the opposite lot line
from that now shown. The reason for requesting the change
was that they did not want windows of the homes to be facing
the alley on lots 5B and 12A. As you will recall , one
stipulation of this zoning was that the side of the
structure placed on the "0" lot line was to have no windows .
ITEM NO. 5 - APPROVE FINAL PLAT OF NEWPORT HARBOR - This
addition was previously known to us as Crescent Cove. That
joint venture partnership has now been dissolved and this
portion is now in the hands of Baron Cook. You recently re-
approved the preliminary plat. The Engineering Department
has reviewed the plat and recommends your approval .
Comments from I . W. Santry are shown on page 7 of your
packet.
ITEM NO. 6 - APPROVE PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR WOODLAKE VILLAGE
This subdivision is located on the property adjacent to the
new City Hall . The developer is Baron Cook representing the
joint venture Centennial-Arapaho East. The Engineering
Department met with the developers and their engineer on
Friday of last week and now recommend your approval . A
memorandum from I . W. Santry, City Engineer is included in
your packet on page 9 .
ITEM NO. 7 - PUBLIC HEARING ON REZONING OF SECTIONS OF
WESTGATE ADDITION - Westgate Addition is located on W. Brown
Avenue (FM3412) adjacent to and directly west of Rustic Oaks
Addition. The developer is asking for a rezoning of those
sections of the development previously zoned for townhomes
to SF3 . This will , of course, reduce the density of
population for these areas. The areas in question are
outlined in bold on the enclosed copy of the plat.
ITEM NO. 8 - PLANNING RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL FOR
LONGTERM TRAFFIC FLOW IN THE AREA OF AKIN LANE, DOGWOOD AND
BUTLER STS. - Over the past several months, the City staff
has been engaged in conversations with property owners along
Akin Lane, in the Rush Creek, Dogwood Ct. area. There
exists a lot in that area, which is not large enough for
building and an individual who wanted to build on said lot.
Small pieces of property needed to be transferred, easements
needed to be abandoned, and dedicated rights-of-way, which
are currently in use, needed to be firmed up. It appeared
that because of mutual interests on all the part of all
parties concerned , that a solution to the dilemma was
eminent and that the property owners would receive what they
needed and the City would receive a bonafide right-of-way
for Akin Lane in which improvements could be made and a old
problem finally settled. In the bottom half of the ninth
inning, conditions were added that significantly changed the
palatability of the negotiations. The request certainly
exceeds the authority of the City staff and, as requested,
1
may even exceed the legal authority of the City and of the
City Council . Further, the problem now not moving toward
simple solution but rather turning toward more involved
negotiations, needs the insight of both the P&Z and the City
Council to determine how we should proceed. The original
plan, sought by the City staff, merely cleared up some
ambiguity about Akin Lane so that the City could enter the
property and make improvements, both to the street and by
removing some visual dangers, so long as those costs were
minimal , that certainly appeared to be the best solution.
Now the costs are beginning to accelerate and the staff
feels that comment needs to be made by the Planning & Zoning
and the City Council as to whether or not there might be
better solutions. For example, is it in the City' s best
long range interests to improve Akin Lane? Given the
twisting nature of the street, will it ever be a good road?
Might not it be better , to abandon the road altogether and
reroute traffic along completely new approaches. The staff
would like to have the opportunity, at this meeting, to show
you several blow-ups of the area and discuss alternate plans
before proceeding further with the negotiations.

PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
REGULAR MEETING
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1987
The Planning and Zoning Commission for the City of Wylie,
Texas met in a Regular Meeting on February 5, 1987 in the
Community Room at 800 Thomas Street. A quorum was present,
notice of the meeting had been posted for the time and in
the manner required by law. Those present were: Vice-
Chairman Brian Chaney, Ben Scholz, Fred Ouellette, R. P.
Miller, Ken Mauk and Jay Davis arrived late. Bill Chapman
was absent. Representing the city staff was Roy Faires,
Code Enforcement Officer and Amanda Maples, Secretary.
The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p. m. by Vice-
' Chairman Brian Chaney.
ITEM NO. 1 - APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES OF JANUARY 22; 1987 -
The vote was recorded wrong for Item No. 2 - Amendment to
Subdivision Ordinance on maximum slope provision and
retaining walls - the actual vote should have been 2-3.
This item died due to a lack of action by the Planning and
Zoning Commission.
Ben Scholz made a motion to accept the minutes with the
above stated correction. Ken Mauk seconded the motion.
Motion carried 5-0. Jay Davis was not present to
participate in this vote.
ITEM NO. 2 - REZONING OF DUPLEX SECTION OF CRESENT COVE
SOUTH (NOW KNOWN AS NEWPORT HARBOR) - The developer of this
addition, located on the east side of FM1 :78, above the
Birmingham tract, is requesting this change from duplex to
SF3. The required public notices have been posted and the
required letters were mailed to property owners within 200
feet of the property under consideration.
Mr. Faires stated that the first time this came before the
Planning and Zoning Commission it was under the name of
Cresent Cove South. This was a joint venture between Mr.
Cook of Arapho East and Mr. Moussa. However, the
partnership has split and Mr. Cook intends to qo forward
with his development he is requesting this change due to a
lack of interest in duplex lots. The staff recommends
approval of this request. This will also have to be
replated which is the next item on your agenda.
Ken Mauk: asked Mr. Faires how this change would effect the
percentage ratio of SF3 housing in our land use plan.
Mr. Faires stated that the numbers involved in this
particular change were so small that they probably would not
have any real effect on the percentages for ' SF3 but, may
have a down effect on the percentages for 2F.
Ben Scholz asked Mr. Cook how he felt about not having a
buffer zoning between his Single Family zoning and Mr.
Moussa 's Multi-Family zoning.
Mr. Cook stated that if Mr. Moussa built his Multi-Family he
would have to put up a Perimeter Fence anyway so I don ' t
have a problem with that.
R. P. Miller asked if there would be any park land dedicated
from this property.
Brian Chaney stated that since the property was less than 50
acres the dedication would probably be in money.
Mr. Faires said that the dedication for parks comes in at
the Final Plat stage and that their only obligation would
probably be on the part that is replated.
Ken Mauk made a motion to recommend to the Council that the
request for rezoning from 2F to SF3 be accepted. Fred
Ouellette seconded the motion. Motion carried 6-0.
ITEM NO. 3 - PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR NEWPORT HARBOR - This
addition was previously known as Cresent Cove South. ' The
joint venture partnership has split and the north section is
being resubmitted after the preliminary time limit expired.
basic water and sewer service, as well as drainage will not
change. The plat, as presented by the developer, Baron
' Cook, reflects the name change and the rezoning. The
engineering department has reviewed this resubmitted plat
and recommends approval .
Mr. Faires commented that the 2F zoning had been changed to
SF3 zoning, creating 30 lots in this category.
Baron Cook stated that they have shown Mr. Moussa 's part of
the development on this plat, as a shaded area, in order to
show proper ingress and egress to the lots on the south end
of the development. When Mr. Moussa develops, his streets,
sewer and water will all tie in at the south end.
Fred Ouellette asked Mr. Cook if any of the lots were
smaller that 7, 200 square feet.
Mr. Cook replied "no. "
Ben Scholz made a motion to accept the Preliminary Flat for
Newport Harbor. Jay . Davis seconded the motion. Motion
carried 6-0.
ITEM NO. 4 - PRELIMINARY/FINAL PLAT/CONSTRUCTION PLANS FOR
QUAIL HOLLWO, PHASE II - Quail Hollow Phase II is being
submitted as Preliminary Flat and Final Plat/Construction
Plans as a sequence in order for the school to be able to
draw a building permit as soon as possible for the new
elementary school to be built on the land designated for
that purpose and included in this addition. The
engineering department has reviewed these plats and plans
and recommends approval .
Mr. Faires stated that the school had approached the
developer to purchase a school site to build P. M. Akin
Elementary School, they reached an agreement and the school
sent out bids. Upon awarding a contract and applying for a
building permit I informed them that I could not issue a
building permit on an illegally subdivided piece of
property. The school has replated the property subdividing
out their tract of land to allow them to go foreward with
the building of the school. A copy of the contractual
agreement between the school and the developer is included
in your packet it states that the improvements will be in
place at the time that the school is opened. Myself, Mr.
Pappas and Mr. Santry have reviewed this contract and we
feel that the school is protected.
Brian Chaney stated, for the purpose of the new members, that
all that the Planning and Zoning Commission was to consider
is the subdivision of the school property so that it becomes
a free standing entity. We are considering the Preliminary
Plat and the Final Flat at the same time in order to speed
things up for the school .
Fred Ouellette asked why the school did not show water,
sewer and fire hydrant plans on their final plat.
Mr. Faires stated that those things were covered in the
contract between the school and the developer.
Fred Ouellette then asked if Park Land Dedication was
covered in the plans.
Mr. Faires stated that Park Land Dedications did not come
out of school property because it was non-residential
property.
Ben Scholz asked if the roads had been completed.
Mr. Faires said that half of them were in but by the time
the school opens they will all be completed as required by
• the contract.
Fred Ouellette made a motion to approve the plats. Ken Mauk
seconded the motion. Motion carried 6-0.
ITEM NO. 5 - AMENDMENT TO ZONING ORDINANCE ON REAR YARD
SETBACKS FOR SF3 - Mr. Tim Terrill of Albritton Development
Company, acting as a consultant for Aston Development
Company on the Westgate Subdivision, said that he was
requesting that the rear setback be changed for the SF3
housing in order to allow them to build a larger house on
the lots. He stated that they had found a lot of market
resistance to this size of lot and that in attempting to
change the setback they had spoken with the City Staff and
• had determined that this was the best way to achieve this
rather than ask for a varriance.
Mr. Tom Cravens, with Lichliter/Jameson of Dallas, stated
that with this size of lot the house pad could only be 58
feet deep and that by decreasing the rear setback to 20 feet
it would allow 5 additional feet in which to build a larger
house. He said that 20 feet of rear space was enough to
park a car and still not be at the back line of the lot.
Vice-Chairman Brian Chaney stated, to the Planning and
Zoning Commission, that any decision made on this matter
will not only effect this subdivision, but would effect all
other subdivisions in Wylie.
Mr. Faires stated " I believe that 3 of you were on the
Planning and Zoning Commission at the time that the present
regulations were adopted. I question the statments
concerning the marketing ability of these lots because I
know of some builders who want to build on these lots.
Further, when they came to my office to discuss changing the
rear setback I informed them that they could not accomplish
this change through a varriance due to a hardship which is
of their own making. One of the things that we have tried
to avoid, in our community, is a super large house on a
small lot. In my opinion we would be making these changes
for one developer who does not want to comply, when other
developers and builders in our community adjust their plans
to meet our ordinances. I do not recommend this request for
change. "
Mr. Tim Terrill stated that they realized that mistakes were
made by Astor Development in the depth of the lots, but he
would like to get builders to build on these lots and they
indicate that the lots are too small .
Mr. Jim Douglas, of Douglas Properties, stated that he has
heard complaints from builders about the lots being too
small . This is a problem subdivision, most of these SF•3
lots are going to be hard to build on and I would like to
get builders to build on them. I can understand your not
wanting to change the setback for the entire city but you
might grant a varriance on the lots that are going to be
hard to build on. The people that created the problem from
Astor Development are no longer here and we have to market
these lots.
• Mr. Faires stated that when this property was being planned
the planner at that time was advised that his conception of
the lot size was misconceived and he said that it met the
qualifications and that the City would have to accept it.
This body does not have the authority to grant a varriance
and you would have to prove hardship, there was no hardship
on this land before it was subdivided.
Vice-Chairman Brian Chaney stated that the Planning and
Zoning Commission did not decide whether something is
marketable or not rather what is best for the entire city.
If we recommend that this ordinance be changed it will
effect all SF3 subdivisions reguardless of the case.
Fred Ouellette stated that even with the 25 foot rear
setback you could build the same size house.
Tom Cravens explained that with the extra 5 feet the builder
could have more flexability.
Vice-Chairman Brian Chaney said that they were wanting to
build SF2 houses on an SF3 lot. " I feel that this ordinance
• should stand as it is. "
R. F. Miller asked what size the homes were that were built
around this property.
Mr. Faires said that the existing homes are 1300 to 1400
square feet and he wants to build 1700 square foot homes.
Vice-Chairman Brian Chaney stated that the Planning and
Zoning Commission is responsible for protecting home buyers
in that a very small house is not built next to a large
house.
Fred Ouellette commented that he felt that the ordinance was
good and should stand as it is.
R.P. Miller made a motion to leave the ordinance as it
stands. Ken Mauk seconded the motion. Motion carried 6-0.
Fred Ouellette requested that Mr. Faires see to it that an
item was placed on the next Planning and Zoning agenda to
elect a chairman.
Mr. Faires suggested that two items be placed on the agenda,
one to elect a chairman and one to elect a vice-chairman if
necessary.
