PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA
1. Hold a public hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a
change in zoning from Agriculture (A) District to Business Center (BC) District with
a Specific Use permit (SUP) for Warehouse and Distribution Uses, being a 5 acre
tract of land located west of Sanden Boulevard and south of F.M. 544, being part of a
16.6174 acre tract of land recorded in Volume 3367, Page 230, of the Collin County
Land Records, situated in the Duke Strickland Survey, Abstract No. 841, City of
Wylie, Collin County, Texas. (Zoning Case No. 01-18)
Thompson stated that the subject property totals approximately 5 acres in size, the
majority of which is floodplain. The applicant will be required to prepare a flood study
and obtain a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) from the U.S. Corps of
Engineers prior to the issuance of permits for site grading and initial construction. The
floodplain has already been partially removed from the neighboring property to the south.
The applicant has indicated on the Site Plan how the required points will be met and it is
staffs belief all of the required points have been achieved.
The nonresidential portion of the Zoning Ordinance, adopted November 13, 2001,
permits Warehouse and Distribution uses within the Business Center District with a
Specific Use Permit (SUP). The SUP provides additional review and the opportunity to
impose special development conditions on certain uses when desired to better insure their
compatibility with adjacent development.
Thompson stated that the accompanying Site Plan provides a summary of the proposed
development requirements, and this Plan shall be considered part of the development
requirements for the subject property. Thompson stated that the subject facility will
provide sufficient compatibility to neighboring developments regardless of varied uses
that may occupy the facility in the future.
Lee Dunlap, 2419 Coit Road, Plano Texas, the architect representing the applicant for the
property, stated that the height of the building will be twenty-eight (28) feet and the
building will be primarily decorative tilt-wall masonry. Thompson stated that the initial
intent was to construct a single building of 54,000 square feet, 10,000 sq. ft. of which will
be office/showroom and a future expansion of 18,000 square feet to the rear of the
building will be built later. Mr. Dunlap stated that there is a possibility that the expansion
may be constructed at the same time of the initial structure totaling a 72,000 square feet
building.
Mr. Dunlap stated that a portion of property will be dedicated as right-of-way to the
widening of Sanden Boulevard. Mr. Dunlap stated further that FEMA has already
cleared 85% of the property from floodplain.

Sam Satterwhite, 2000 Highway 78, Wylie Texas, the Director of Wylie Economic
Development Commission, expressed strong support of the applicant. Satterwhite stated
that the applicant facility will be a clean building with no considerable amount of traffic.
Motion was made by Commissioner Snider, seconded by Commissioner Phillips, to
approve the Site Plan with SUP. Motion passed 5 —O.
2. Hold a public hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a
change to the Conditions of Development for the Planned Development District (PD
01-46), generally located north of F.M. 544 and east of McCreary Road, being north
of the Lakeside Estates Addition and east of the Sage Creek Addition, situated in the
Moses Sparks Survey, Abstract No. 849, City of Wylie, Collin County, Texas, being
part of a 28.5675 acre tract and all of a 27.4522 acre tract conveyed to Thomas
Mannewitz by deed recorded under County Clerk's File No. 92-0064130, Deed
Records, Collin County, Texas. (Zoning Case No. 01-19)
Thompson reviewed the approval dates of the Planned Development District (PD 2001-
46) for the Development and a Conceptual Plan, and the Preliminary Plat. Thompson
stated that the area covers a 41.7-acre tract and will create 151 single-family residential
lots. The average lot size is 8,500 square feet, with no lots being smaller than 7,200
square feet and no fewer than 97 lots having a minimum size of 8,500 square feet.
Thompson stated that the applicant is now requesting an amendment to the Conditions of
the Planned Development District in order to achieve certain variances to the standard
requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. The Residential requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance, adopted in July of 2000, requires that seven (7) lots be skipped on the same
side of the street and four (4) on the opposite side before repeating a dwelling unit with
substantially the same floor plan and street elevation. However, representatives of the
home building industry have suggested that this requirement is too restrictive and
recommended a skipping of four on the same side and two on opposite sides, which more
closely follows accepted development practices. Of ten neighboring municipalities
surveyed, only Rockwall had any requirement to skip elevations and they required a
skipping of five (5) lots. The applicant is proposing to skip four (4) lots on the same side
of the street and two (2) lots on the opposite side of the street with same floor plan and
street elevation.
Thompson stated that the applicant is also proposing a change from a 40 square foot
porch to 18 square feet minimum on the Base Standard in the Planned Development
District.
Kevin Spraggins, 3038 Oaklawn Avenue, Suite 1212, Dallas Texas, represented the
applicant for the subject property, stated that due to a typographic error when the original
PD was submitted, Skorburg is requesting an amendment stating that the residential
requirements to be four(4) lots be skipped on the same side of the street and two (2) lots
P&Z Commission Meeting
January 2, 2002
Page 4 of 4
be skipped on the opposite side before repeating an identical floor plan with an identical
elevation. Commissioner Snider stated that in the Zoning Ordinance requirements, there
are two issues which need to be addressed. One issue was identical floor plan and similar
elevation and the second was dissimilar elevation and identical floor plan. There was
discussion between the Commissioners on the definition of identical and similar floor
plan or elevation. Thompson led the Commissioners to a discussion regarding the
wording in the Zoning Ordinance, Architectural Requirements Table on page 31, giving
the description on page 46, element number 6 "Units with same floor plan and same
street elevation OR;" element number 7 "Units with same floor plan and different street
elevation." Ryan Betz, 3038 Oaklawn Avenue, Suite 1212, Dallas Texas, represented the
applicant for the subject property, stated that the interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance
was to have either element number 6 or element number 7 and not meeting both
elements. Betz stated that the intention is to abide by element number 7 with 4 lots
skipped same side of street and 2 lots on opposite side. Commissioners discussed the
definition of similar and identical. Betz stated further that the wording can be changed to
similar elevation and similar floor plan.
Commissioner George stated that there are two ways to interpret the Zoning Ordinance,
one is same floor plan and same elevation or same floor plan and different elevation.
There will be situations arising when the element 6 and element 7 have to be addressed.
Betz and Spraggins asked for a break to interpret element number 6 and number 7 in the
PD language instead of element number 7 only. Chairman George stated the Public
Hearing Item number 2 will be discussed after Item number 3 on the agenda.
3. Hold a public hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a
change in zoning from Industrial (I) District to Commercial Corridor (CC) District,
being a 30.278 acre tract of land located in the northwest corner of F.M. 544 and S.H.
78, situated in the S.B. Shelby Survey, Abstract No. 820, City of Wylie, Collin
County, Texas, being the same property as conveyed to the City of Wylie by deed
recorded in Volume 279, Page 511, Deed Records of Collin County, Texas, being the
same property as conveyed to the Gary E. Bowland, Charlotte A. Bowland, Martin L.
Anderson and Susan M. Anderson by deed recorded under the County Clerk's File
No. 99-0048505, Deed Records of Collin County, Texas, being the same property as
conveyed to Ronald C. Dow by deed recorded in Volume 1806, Page 902, Deed
Records of Collin County, Texas, being the same property as conveyed to Wylie
Economic Development Corporation by deed recorded in Volume 4572, Page 3563,
Deed Records of Collin County, Texas, being all of Lot 1 and Lot 2, Block A, of the
Walgreens-Wylie Addition, according to the plat thereof recorded in Cabinet N, Slide
378, Map Records of Collin County, Texas, being all of Wylie Industrial Park,
according to the plat thereof recorded in Volume 8, Page 55, Map Records, Collin
County, Texas, being all of tract of land conveyed to Collin County by deed recorded
in Volume 4980, Page 2156, Deed Records of Collin County, Texas, being part of the
D.A.R.T. ROW, being part of old State Highway ROW and being part of F.M.
Highway 544 ROW. (Zoning Case No. 01-20)
P&Z Commission Meeting
January 2, 2002

Thompson explained that because the area around Cooper Street in the northwest corner
of State Highway 78 and F.M. 544 has such diverse uses and transitioning development
patterns, and at the specific request of several property owners, the City Council pulled
out the area for separate consideration. This area totals approximately 30 acres and is
held in approximately 17 separate ownerships.
Thompson stated that the Commercial Corridor (CC) District is intended accommodate a
diverse mixture of commercial and light industrial uses which are all dependent upon
direct access to major regional thoroughfares, but which are complimentary to one
another as well as to the vehicular corridor. Several of the existing establishments within
the subject area reflect these characteristics, as well as those of the Community Retail
District. The size and configuration of many of existing lots within the subject area favor
development as Commercial Corridor uses rather than as Community Retail.
Raymond Stone, 711 Cooper, Wylie Texas, owns 2.5-acres in the subject area, stated that
his business is a restoration company, not a repair, but cleaning company. Thompson
stated that the company would be defined as a personal service use, which will be
permitted in a CC District. Modifications can be made if building codes are met.
Thompson stated further that if the property was sold, similar uses would be in
compliance with the zoning.
Sam Satterwhite, 2000 Highway 78, Wylie Texas, Director of WEDC, which owns
property in the subject area, expressed concerns should WEDC propose CR zoning, how
that would effect the process surrounding the WEDC property for less intense uses in a
CC District. Thompson reviewed the allowable types of businesses for a CC District,
zoning to a CR is possible as long as it is not spot zoning and is classified as a District.
Motion was made by Commissioner Phillips, seconded by Commissioner Chapman to
approve the re-zoning to Commercial Corridor District. Motion passed 5 —O.
The Commission adjourned for a ten minute break at 8:53 p.m. and resumed at 9:08 p.m.
Chairman George re-opened Agenda Item number 2.
2. Hold a public hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council regarding a
change to the Conditions of Development for the Planned Development District (PD
01-46), generally located north of F.M. 544 and east of McCreary Road, being north
of the Lakeside Estates Addition and east of the Sage Creek Addition, situated in the
Moses Sparks Survey, Abstract No. 849, City of Wylie, Collin County, Texas, being
part of a 28.5675 acre tract and all of a 27.4522 acre tract conveyed to Thomas
Mannewitz by deed recorded under County Clerk's File No. 92-0064130, Deed
Records, Collin County, Texas. (Zoning Case No. 01-19)

Commissioner George asked the applicants if the request for the same floor plan and
same elevation is proposed, could the same floor plan but different elevation not be
placed right next door? Spraggins stated that on one-side of the street is where the repeat
of the similar elevation with the same floor plan could be done, not on both sides of the
street and they wouldn't guarantee the separation of same floor plan and different
elevation.
Motion was made by Commissioner Phillips, seconded by Commissioner Porter to
approve the amendment with the exception of PD 2001-46 item number 2, the date to be
dropped; item number 5, four (4) lots be skipped on the same side of the street and two
(2) lots be skipped on the opposite side before repeating an identical floor plan with an
identical elevation and the porch cover 18 square feet with 5 feet minimum width.
WORK SESSION
1. Consider with representatives of the building industry certain revisions to the
Residential Districts of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. Specifically these
include, but may not be limited to, the following:
a. The requirement that exterior facade materials be 100% brick or stone. Figure
3-12.D.1. Figure 3-13.D.1., and Figure 3-14.D.1.
b. The requirement that the same floor plan and street elevation be skipped for 7
or 9 lots. Figure 3-12.D.6. &7., Figure 3-13.D.6. &7., and Figure 3-14.D.6.
&7.
c. The requirement of a 40 sq. ft. entry covers on all SF 8.5/17 residences.
Figure 3-14.D.9.
d. The definition of the depth of offset for residential garage doors. Figure 3-
12.D.8. Figure 3-13.D.8., and Figure 3-14.D.11.
Thompson led the group in a discussion of the various alternatives to each issue discussed
at the Work Session on December 18, 2001. Thompson drew the Commissioners
attention to the first page of the Work Session report.
a. Limit the repeat of identical street elevations to three (3) lots on the same side
and one (1) lot on opposite side of the street. There was strong support for a
four (4) and two (2) pattern, as some support for a greater limitation on the
opposite/facing-view side than same/linear-view side.
The consensus was to have four lots skipping on same side with same floor plan and two
lots opposite/facing-view. The same floor plan can not occur side by side but the
elevation can be mirrored.
P&Z Commission Meeting
January 2, 2002
Page 7 of 7
b. Limit masonry requirement to 80% on all walls, and allow synthetic panel
materials (EFIS, Hardiplank) to be defined as masonry or at least allowed for
the 20% nonmasonry. There was discussion of regulating color and
texture/pattern of the nonmasonry, and limiting masonry to as little as 50% or
completely from upper stories.
There was a discussion of the percentage of masonry on each residential lot. The
consensus was to change the masonry requirements to having the front facade 100%
masonry and all other sides having minimum of 80% masonry. The Commissioners
agreed that masonry be defined as laid brick or stone and include EFIS and Cementeous
Stucco.
c. Require a porch of 18 square feet with a minimum depth of 5 feet for the SF
8.5/17 district, and leave the 20 sq. ft. requirement in other residential
districts, and provide points for larger porches. There was discussion whether
or not to require a porch at all (especially for SF 8.5) and giving points if
provided, as well as setting the porch size at 20 sq. ft. for SF 8.5 as currently
for other districts.
The consensus was to require the porch of 20 square feet with a minimum 5 feet width.
d. Define the garage offset as 12 or 18 inches. There was discussion of defining
the offset as much as 5 feet.
The consensus was to define the garage offset as 12 inches or one foot.
A motion was made to bring these revisions to a Public Hearing at the earliest possible
date.

Public Hearing Item No.2
01-17
Rezoning
Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting: January 15,2002
Owner/Applicant: RFA, Inc.
Location: Generally located along the northwest side of
Pleasant Valley Rd. and south of Wells Rd.
Existing Zoning: Agriculture(A)
Requested Zoning: Planned Development(PD)for Single Family(SF 10/19)
Summary:
The applicant is requesting initial zoning of the subject property from Agricultural (A)District to
Planned Development (PD) for Single Family (SF10/19) residences and open space. This
property was annexed into the City of Wylie by Council action on January 8,2002.
The subject property totals 68.11 acres in size. The proposal is to develop approximately 155
single-family residential lots and approximately 9.4 acres of public open space, reflecting a
density of 2,27 dwelling units per acre. The Conditions of Development require that the
requirements of the SF-10/19 District be followed with limited exceptions.
Public Comment Forms were mailed to four (4) property owners within 200 feet of this request.
One written comment AGAINST the proposal had been returned at the time of posting.
However, additional neighboring property owners spoke against the proposed annexation to the
Council because lot sizes were anticipated to be smaller than an acre.
01-17
Issues:
1. The Comprehensive Plan recommends that the subject property be developed as Country
Residential. The Plan defines Country Residential as lots of one acre or larger,not exceeding
a density of 0.75 dwelling units per acre. The proposed rezoning does not comply with this
recommendation of the Plan. Suburban Residential densities, allowing lots of between
10,000 and 30,000 square feet, such as proposed by this rezoning, are recommended by the
Plan further to the west.
2. The area within the County directly across Pleasant Valley Road is sparsely developed in
large lots (5+ acres)with a rural character and infrastructure, such as is recommended by the
Comprehensive Plan.
3. A new regional waste water treatment facility is proposed to adjoin this property on the
southwest.
4. Major electric power and water utility easements bisect the property. at a 45 degree angle
almost exactly from the south corner to the north corner. It is proposed to utilize these
corridors to create a parkway through the neighborhood with parks and trails connecting
Pleasant Valley Road to properties to the northwest.
5. The development in the County directly across the road is all large lot(5+ acres)with a rural

Attn: Claude T.
Per our discussion, I am writing this letter in hopes that I might have an audience with either the
P&Z board members or the City Council to discuss needed changes in the Townhome Distict. I
would like to discuss the vast differences between two family attached units,and or multiple attached
units also known as Townhouses or four-plex's. Currently these structures are covered under the
Townhome District Zoning which doesn't take into consideration that each of these structures offer
unique features that can not be maintained under the current zoning. I look forward to the
opportunity to discuss these issues and eagerly await your reply.
Sincerely,
LaiTY eSe�g—"
