PUBLIC HEARING
1. Hold a public hearing to consider and act upon a request by Larry DeBerry for a
variance to Section 3.3(B)(3) Townhouse District Development Standards of the
Zoning Ordinance to reduce the required lot width from 30 feet to 25 feet, and to
reduce the required lot size from 3,500 minimum square feet to 3,300 minimum
square feet, this property being located at 415 N. Jackson, Lot 2D, Block 3 in the
Russell Addition. (ZBOA Case No. 2004-17).
Thompson stated that the property was originally platted as single Lot 2, Block 3 of the
Russell No. 1 Addition, and later divided into Lots 2B, 2C, 2D, and 2E. The subject
property is Lot 2D.
The subject property measures approximately 135 feet deep by 50 feet wide totaling
approximately 6,748 square feet in area. The applicant desires to replat the lot to
accommodate townhouse. When replatted, the lot will not be large enough to comply
with the 3,500 square feet minimum required for attached dwellings. Therefore, the
applicant is requesting to reduce the required lot width from 30 feet to 25 feet, and to
reduce the required lot size from 3,500 minimum square feet to 3,300 minimum square
feet.
Two (2) comment forms out of fourteen (14) property owners within 200 feet of the
subject property were returned, and one (1) form favoring and one (1) form opposing
the request for a variance.
The subject property will require replatting, and each lot will have an area of 3,374
square feet.
Larry DeBerry, 8277 Private Road 5397, Nevada, Texas 75173, applicant/developer for
the subject property, stated that the request to move the lot width from 30 feet to 25 feet
will maintain the required five feet side yard setback on either side. The properties to
the north and south are developed as duplexes except for the properties adjacent on
either side of the subject property. The intent is to build a duplex on the subject
property and in the future, when the time is right build duplexes on the two adjacent
properties.
A motion was made by Ms. Herrera, and seconded by Mr. Herzog to GRANT the
request for a variance to reduce the lot width to 25 feet and will maintain the five feet
side yard setback on either side. Motion carried 7 — 0.

2. Hold a public hearing to consider and act upon a request by Robert and
Rosemary Love for a variance to Section 11.3(1)(c) of the 1985 Zoning
Ordinance to reduce the required rear yard from the required 25 feet to 20.85
feet, this property being located at 500 Crenshaw Drive, Lot 1, Block D of the
Meadows of Birmingham Phase 2 Addition. (ZBOA Case No. 2005-01).
Thompson stated that the subject property was created in April of 2003 with the platting
of Phase 2 of the Meadows of Birmingham Addition. A rear yard setback of twenty-five
feet is required in the Single-Family-3 (SF-3) Residential District.
The rear exit of the subject residence is by a single door, opening on to a paved patio
which measures 10 feet by 20 feet. This door faces east and receives a majority of the
direct sun. An uncovered porch extends from the rear wall of the residence ten feet,
and the proposed 20 feet width is a minimal measurement to cover the paved porch
area.
Public comment forms were mailed to twenty (20) property owners within 200 feet of the
request and three comment forms returned all in favor of the request.
Robert and Rosemary Love, 500 Crenshaw Drive, the applicants/property owners of the
request, stated that the patio cover will measure 10 feet by 20 feet, which will cover the
existing concrete slab with built-in gutters for drainage.
A motion was made by Ms. Sargent, and seconded by Ms. Jourdan, to GRANT the
variance of 20.85 feet. Motion carried 7 — 0.
3. Hold a public hearing to consider and act upon a request by Stephen C.
Averill for a variance to Section 9.2 (11) of the Planned Development District
(PD 99-32) to reduce the required street-side side yard from the required 20
feet to 17.71 feet, this property being located at 1530 Lynn Drive, Lot 3, Block
C in the Creekside Estates Phase 1 Addition. (ZBOA Case No. 2005-02).
Thompson stated that the subject property was zoned in October of 1999 as Creekside
Estates Addition as a Planned Development District 99-32. The conditions of the PD
require a side yard setback of twenty (20) feet when a side yard is adjacent to a side
street.
The subject property is located on the northeast corner of Lynn Drive and Glenwood
Drive. The applicant is requesting that the side yard that faces Glenwood Drive be
reduced by two feet four inches to allow for a 2,500 square feet home. The requested
variance is 11 percent from the required setback. The southern property line narrows
from a front property line width of 94.25 feet to 63.44 feet wide at the rear property line.
The back portion of the property contains a 68.52 foot drainage easement.
ZBOA Commission Meeting
January 24, 2005
Page 4 of 5
The southeast corner of the house will be 17.71 feet from the side property line,
encroaching 2.08 feet into the required setback or a variance of 11 percent of the
required 20 feet side yard depth.
Steve Averill, Bowen Family Homes, 131 S. Tennessee, McKinney, Texas, represented
the home builder of the subject development, stated that the subject property is the last
lot in phase 1 of Creekside Estates Addition, and is currently occupied by a construction
trailer which is surrounded by a fence. The construction trailer will be removed and a
single family dwelling of 2,500 square feet will be constructed.
A motion was made by Ms. Jourdan, and seconded by Mr. Bullock, to GRANT the
request for a variance to reduce the required street-side yard to 17.71 feet. Motion
carried 7 — 0.
4. Hold a public hearing to consider and act upon a request by Jay Cullar for a
variance to Section 4.2(A) of the Zoning Ordinance to reduce the required
front yard setback from 50 feet to 25 feet, and to reduce the rear yard setback
from the required 25 feet to 24 feet, this property being located South of
Alanis Drive at Martinez Lane, and north of Glen Knoll Mobile Home Park.
(ZBOA Case No. 2005-03).
Thompson stated that the request is being brought by the City of Wylie and Jay Cullar is
speaking as the City's Right-of-Way Agent on behalf of the City. The subject property
fronts to the south of Alanis Drive. The property is zoned Business Center (BC) District,
which requires a front yard of fifty (50) feet and rear yard of twenty-five (25) feet.
The widening and improvements of Alanis requires additional right-of-way from the
subject property approximately seventy-five (75) feet deep and one thousand three
hundred seventy (1,370) feet long. The City's Right-of-Way Agent has determined that
this purchase will create a remnant lot which is too small to accommodate the setback
required by the BC zoning. Therefore, the city, on behalf of the owner, is requesting a
variance to reduce the front yard setback from fifty (50) feet to twenty-five (25) feet and
to reduce the required rear yard setback of twenty-five (25) feet to twenty-four (24) feet.
Jay Cullar, 11615 Forest Central Drive, Suite 205, Dallas, Texas, represented as the
Right-of-Way Agent for the City of Wylie, stated that the improvements to Alanis
significantly impact the subject property, and creates a hardship for the property owner
where the appraisers for the City of Wylie have determined that the property with the
current zoning setbacks is undevelopable or an un-economic remainder. This creates
two problems, the City of Wylie would have to purchase the entire property, and second,
the property would be removed from the future tax base of the city. Only after applying
for variances for setbacks could the property be developable and have some use in the
future.
ZBOA Commission Meeting
January 24, 2005
Page 5 of 5
To clarify the measurements, the property is 200 feet deep, the City of Wylie is
acquiring 80 feet off the front of the property, and leaving the property with only 120
feet. With the current setbacks the property would only have 20 feet, which is not
enough to sustain economic activity of any kind. The Board Members discussed in
length the use and the future development of the road. Mr. Cullar stated that no
development is planned at this time, but the economic activity development would
conform to the Business Center Zoning.
A motion was made by Ms. Sargent, and seconded by Mr. Herzog, to GRANT the
variance to reduce the front yard setback from fifty (50) feet to twenty-five (25) feet and
to reduce the required rear yard setback of twenty-five (25) feet to twenty-four (24) feet.
Motion carried 6 — 1, with Mr. Bullock voting in opposition.
ADJOURNMENT
With no further business to discuss, a motion was made by Ms. Sargent, and seconded
by Ms. Jourdan, to adjourn the meeting at 8:30PM.

Public Hearing Item No. 1
City of wytie
ZBOA No. 2005-04
Zoning Board of Adjustment Public Hearing: February 21, 2005
Owner/Applicant: Terry Rowe
Location: 1500 Kreymer, Tract 217, Abstract No. 688-5.
Request: Variance to Section 2.5.4.b of the Zoning Ordinance
to allow an accessory agricultural building on a 5.0
acre agricultural lot without a main structure.
Background:
The subject property is zoned Agriculture, and is 5 acres in size. The owner proposes
to construct an accessory agricultural building (horse barn) of approximately 1,150
square feet. There is currently no residential dwelling or main structure on the property.
The main structure (residence) will be constructed at a later date, when the owner sells
his current residence elsewhere.
Agricultural accessory building is defined by the Zoning Ordinance as "incidental to a
principle building and are allowed by right on lots of two (2) acres or larger. Section
2.5.4.b provides that accessory structures on lots of two (2) acres or more may not
exceed three thousand (3,000) square feet.
Section 5.3 states that accessory buildings shall comply with the area requirements of
Article 3 — Residential District Regulations. The proposed accessory building complies
with these regulations.
Section 8.4(E)(4)(b) of the Zoning Ordinance provides that the Zoning Board of
Adjustments may permit a variance to the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance if the
variance is not contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions of the site,
a literal enforcement of the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship, and so
that the spirit of the Ordinance is observed and substantial justice is done. The Board
may impose any reasonable conditions on the issuance of a variance and may amend
the variance from that requested. The concurring vote of 75 percent of the members of
the Board shall be necessary to reverse any order, requirement, decision or
determination of any administrative official, or to decide in favor of the applicant to
effect any variance in the Ordinance. In order to grant a variance to the development
code the Board shall find that all the following have been satisfied:
ZBOA 2005-04
(1) That there are unique physical circumstances or conditions of the lot, or
other exceptional physical condition particular to the affected property;
(2) That because of these unique physical circumstances or conditions, the
property cannot be reasonably developed or used in compliance with the
provisions of the development code;
(3) That due to such unique physical circumstances or conditions, the strict
application of the development code would create a demonstrated
hardship;
(4) That the demonstrable hardship is not self-imposed;
(5) That the variance if granted will not adversely affect the proposed
development or use of adjacent property or neighborhood;
(6) That the variance, if granted will not change the character of the zoning
district in which the property is located;
(7) That the variance, if granted is in keeping with the intent of the
development code; and
(8) That the variance, if granted will not adversely affect the health, safety or
welfare of the citizens of Wylie.
Considerations:
1. The owners wish to install a barn and move horses on to the property prior to
construction of the main residential structure which will be built upon the completion
of selling their current residence. The barn will remain after construction of the
residence, there by being defined as accessory.
2. Horse raising could be considered a bonafide principle use of the property whereby
the barn would be defined as principle rather than accessory. However, the
proposal clearly envisions the horse-orientation as an accessory to the ultimate
residential use and only temporarily the single or principle structure on the site.
3. The accessory building will comply with all requirements of the Zoning Ordinance
and Building Code, except that there will be no main structure on the property.
4. Public comment forms were mailed out to ten (10) property owners within 200 feet of
this request, as required by State Law. No comment forms had been received at the
time of this posting.

Public Hearing Item No. 2
City of Wylie
ZBOA No. 2005-05
Zoning Board of Adjustment Public Hearing: February 21, 2005
Owner/Applicant: City of Wylie
Location: 2000 Highway 78 North, Abstract No. 688-5, Tract 195
Request: Variance to Section 5.5(A) of the Zoning Ordinance to
extend the required 90 day temporary use to three years
to allow for a portable building to expand office space.
Background:
The subject property is occupied by the Municipal Building and administrative offices of the
City of Wylie, and is zoned Corridor Commercial (CC) District. These spaces are now crowded
and expansion of permanent facilities are in the planning stage. Temporary offices are allowed
within all commercial districts, and are limited to less than ninety (90) days of operation. The
City is requesting a variance to the 90 day time limit for a temporary use. In order to continue
to provide services in an effective manner the City must expand office space, and various
options are under consideration. The most fiscally responsible option is to utilize a portable
building temporarily. This request will extend the required 90 day temporary use to a three year
temporary use to allow sufficient time for the planning and design of additional permanent
space.
Section 8.4(E)(4)(b) of the Zoning Ordinance provides that the Zoning Board of Adjustments
may permit a variance to the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance if the variance is not
contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions of the site, a literal enforcement of
the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of the Ordinance is
observed and substantial justice is done. The Board may impose any reasonable conditions on
the issuance of a variance and may amend the variance from that requested. The concurring
vote of 75 percent of the members of the Board shall be necessary to reverse any order,
requirement, decision or determination of any administrative official, or to decide in favor of the
applicant to effect any variance in the Ordinance. In order to grant a variance to the
development code the Board shall find that all the following have been satisfied:
(1) That there are unique physical circumstances or conditions of the lot, or other
exceptional physical condition particular to the affected property;
(2) That because of these unique physical circumstances or conditions, the
property cannot be reasonably developed or used in compliance with the
provisions of the development code;
ZBOA 2005-05
(3) That due to such unique physical circumstances or conditions, the strict
application of the development code would create a demonstrated hardship;
(4) That the demonstrable hardship is not self-imposed;
(5) That the variance if granted will not adversely affect the proposed development
or use of adjacent property or neighborhood;
(6) That the variance, if granted will not change the character of the zoning district
in which the property is located;
(7) That the variance, if granted is in keeping with the intent of the development
code; and
(8) That the variance, if granted will not adversely affect the health, safety or
welfare of the citizens of Wylie.
Considerations:
1. The city has initiated planning for additional facilities (see attachment). A portable building
is the most fiscally responsible option to obtain the additional office space needed to
address current over crowding.
2. It is uncertain at this time when additional permanent facilities will be available, but the
portable building will be utilized for no more than a three (3) year period.
3. The temporary building will comply with all regulations of the code, including setbacks,
parking, utilities and exterior materials.
4. At the time this property was purchased and developed for the public use, the Zoning
Ordinance did not restrict the installation and use of temporary buildings. Several uses
throughout Wylie still have temporary buildings which were installed legally under previous
codes, including Sanden, the old Carlisle tract and several WISD sites for classes and
administration. The new bank on S.H. 78 and Jackson, constructed under the current code,
used a temporary building for business offices while the new facility was under construction
but for no more than the allowed 90 days.
5. Public comment forms were mailed out to nine (9) property owners within 200 feet of this
request, as required by State Law. No comment forms had been received at the time of
this posting.

RE: City of Wylie Variance Application—Temporary Building
2000 Highway 78 North
949 Hensley
Applicable conditions:
(A) That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the
land,structure or building involved and which are not applicable to other
lands, structures, or buildings in the same district.
For some time, the City has been evaluating options to relieve overcrowding within the
Police Department. Staffing in the Police Department has increased significantly over
the past few years with no commensurate increase in office space. Likewise, staffing for
the entire organization has increased, with no increase in building space. The increase in
staffing within the Police Department has been to ensure that necessary ratios between
staff and population are maintained to effectively provide service and to continue to
maintain low crime rates.
The options evaluated included renovating the existing building, leasing office space off-
site or a portable building. Because of the existing jail and communication infrastructure,
it was determined that the Police Department staffing needed to stay within the existing
Municipal Building. The most logical option was to expand into the adjacent area which
currently houses the Building Inspection Department. Because most of the citizens who
interact with Building Inspection also interact with other departments within the
Municipal Building, an off-site office was determined to be ineffective in terms of
provision of service.
As such, the need to provide adequate and efficient public services is a condition which is
specific to the City's property and is not applicable to other land within the same district.
(b) That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would
deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in
the same district under the terms of this ordinance.
Because the City of Wylie is a public entity, decisions regarding our facilities must be
made with the opportunity for the general public to provide input. This is a process that
takes a considerable amount of time. Evidence of this is found in the fact that the City
has engaged the services of a consulting firm to prepare a Facility Needs Assessment.
Several months have been spent on the process, with a Worksession being conducted by
the City Council on January 27, 2005. Please find attached a memo from City Manager
Mark B. Roath to the Wylie City Council which outlines different options regarding the
ongoing Study. Adequate permanent facilities would not be available until 2007 at the
soonest, pending approval of a bond election. The limitation of 90 days is a time frame
that a public entity cannot meet.
(c) That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the
actions of the applicants.
While the growth in staffing is an action of the applicant, it is necessitated by the growth
in the community and the expectation on the part of the community for the provision of
service.
(d) That granting the variance request will not confer on the applicant any
special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, structure
or buildings in the same district.
While the City of Wylie does have certain unique characteristics which support the
approval of a variance, other not-for-profit agencies are not precluded from submitting
similar requests,with similar justifications.
(e) No nonconforming use of neighboring lands, structures, or buildings in
other districts shall be considered grounds for the issuance of a variance.
The City of Wylie is not basing its application on the condition of adjacent properties.
(f) Financial hardship shall not be considered grounds for the issuance of a
variance.
Financial hardship is not factor in this request. It is, however, the City's responsibility to
provide services in the most efficient and economical way as possible without sacrificing
quality.
THE CITY OF WYLIE
MANAGER'S MEMORANDUM
DATE ISSUED: February 17, 2005 MEMORANDUM NO. 05-07
ATTENTION: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Facilities Space Needs Study Presentation and Questions Asked
During the Workshop, the Mayor and City Council directed City Staff to respond
back with additional information about the Study. Specifically, you asked us to answer
the following questions:
1. What about an Option that includes shell space in lieu of finishing a
building, i.e. City Hall or Library or both?
2. What financial revenue sources might be available to fund this Study
including land the City could sell to aid in the construction?
3. What other capital improvement projects might need to be considered
during the initial phase of this Study?
4. And, what steps might the City take to implement this Study?
BACKGROUND
Over the past several years, the City has been considering various long-term
facility space alternatives for the City Hall, Library, Recreation Center, Fire Station,
Community Center, Public Works Center and other municipal buildings. In 2004,
Brinkley Sargent Architects was hired to produce a report on our facility needs.
DISCUSSION
1. What about an Option that includes shell space in lieu of finishing a building, i.e.
City Hall or Library or both?
In January 2005, Brinkley Sargent presented the Mayor and City Council with
three options for addressing our facility needs (see attachments). The options were as
follows:
Option A. Construct a new City Hall, Library (Phase I) and Recreation Center by
mid-2007; construct Police and Courts, Fire Administration and EOC,
Public Works, Senior Center (Renovate Library), Animal Shelter and
1
Parks Maintenance (existing Animal Shelter) by mid-2010; then, construct
Library (Phase II) by mid-2015.
Option B. Construct a new Recreation Center, Library (Phase I), Police and Courts
and Fire Administration and EOC by mid-2007; construct a City Hall,
Public Works, Senior Center (renovate Library), Animal Shelter and Park
Maintenance (existing Shelter) by mid-2010; then, construct Library
(Phase II) by mid-2015.
Option C. Construct a new City Hall and Library (Phase I) by mid-2007; construct
Fire Administration and EOC, Public Works, Recreation Center and
Senior Center (renovate Library) by mid-2010; construct Police and
Courts, Animal Shelter and Park Maintenance (existing Shelter) by mid-
2013; then,construct Library (Phase II) by mid-2015.
Options A, B and C are estimated to cost $50,180,264, $49,930,201 and $52,788,726
respectively,which includes an escalator factor.
After the Workshop, I met with representatives of Brinkley Sargent to address the
Mayor and City Council's questions about their presentation. In the course of answering
these concerns an additional alternative (Option D) emerged (see attachment). It is as
follows:
Option D. Construct a new City Hall, Library (Phase I) and Public Works (Phase I)
by mid-2007; construct Police, Courts, Fire, EOC and Communications
(renovate the existing City Hall) and Senior Center (renovate Library) by
Spring-2009; construct Animal Shelter by mid-2010; construct Public
Works (Phase II) and Park Maintenance by Spring-2013; construct a
Public Safety Facility, Library (Phase II) by mid-2015; then, complete the
City Hair shell space by Spring-2017 or earlier as-needed.
Option D is estimated to cost $42,799,993, which include an escalator factor.
This Option would result in:
• The City Hall being built to 2014 space needs; then, constructing the remainder of
the improvements (finishing the shell space) by 2017 or earlier as-needed.
• The Library being constructed to 25,000 square feet; then, completing the
remainder of the improvements by 2015.
• The Public Works Center being built to accommodate more office as well as
assembly area for personnel; then, completing the remainder of the improvements
by 2013.
• The renovation of the existing City Hall to accommodate Police, Courts, Fire,
EOC and Communications; then, constructing a new Public Safety Building by
2015.
2
•
It should be noted, under this Option, the City would construct the Third Fire
Station from other funds, i.e. for example, proceeds from the sale of the undeveloped
portion of the current City Hall tract and General Fund monies, and the Recreation
Center from 4B Funds and/or grants, as they become available.
This Option strength is:
• That the Facility Study cost would be spread out over a longer period of time;
thus, resulting in a decreased financial impact on taxpayers.
• That a phased approach would be used for key new construction, which is more
efficient and cost effective. (Here, phasing means either construct the building
but leaving considerable shell space (i.e. City Hall) or constructing the building in
such a way as to make it expandable (i.e. Library).)
• That existing municipal facilities would be used more under this option—namely,
the existing City Hall would be renovated for Police, Courts, Fire, EOC and
Communications; the existing Library would be renovated for a Senior Center and
the existing Animal Shelter would be renovated for a Park Maintenance facility.
Note: The City would need to construct the new City Hall, new Library and new
Animal Shelter prior to any existing facility being renovated.
This Option weakness is:
• That the City will take longer to complete these facility improvements; thus,
potentially pushing up borrowing as well as construction costs.
• And that, with a longer facilities improvement schedule, the City risks the danger
of other "more important capital improvements" interfering with these scheduled
facility improvements; thus, further pushing out the completion of the remaining
projects on the list.
2. What financial revenue sources might be available to fund this Study including
land the City could sell to aid in the construction?
The planning process to implement the Study will need to include a financing
alternative. Understandable, the importance of a number of policy issues including but
not limited to overall cost, bonding capacity, credit rating impact, design and location
will determine which option is pursued. Some form of municipal tax exempt bond
financing should be explored. A second alternative might involve partnering with a
private developer. This would utilize private financing with debt service funded by lease
payments to the developer with ultimate ownership by the City at the end of the lease.
This alternative, although potentially more expensive would have the advantage of
limiting the impact to the City's bonding capacity or credit rating. A third alternative
may be partnering with the county on a larger government complex.
With respect to City land that might be sold, the City Council should explore
selling the front (undeveloped) portion of the City Hall tract. This tract might bring the
3
City an estimated $1,000,000 million dollars. Note: The City might have other land,
which could be sold to help defray the cost of these facility improvements as well.
3. What other capital improvement projects might need to be considered during the
initial phase of this Study?
Recently, the City Administration began development of a Capital Improvement
Program (CIP), which will include all proposed infrastructure improvements over
$50,000 and all proposed equipment purchases over $25,000 for the next five fiscal
years, from 2006 to 2011. Said CIP will be completed in March, 2005 and then presented
to the City Council for review and possible adoption.
In the meantime, however, the City Engineer has identified certain road
improvement projects that might require long-term financing during the next ten years
that you should be aware of:
Year Project Estimated Amount
2008 FM 1378 (Brown to Parker) $9,682,000*
2008 Stone Road (Ballard to Collins) 7,387,500
2009 McMillen Road (Park Road) 4,528,750
2009 Brown Street (SH 78 to Anson) 5,544,500
2009 SH 78 5,876,830
2010 McMillan Road 5,388,750
2015 Park Blvd. 7,372,000
Proposed Improvement Total $45,780,330
Note: At this point, the City is committed to the FM 1378 Project only, according
to the City Engineer. As such, the City Council should consider including that cost in
any financial plan for the initial phase of this Study as well.
4. What steps might the City take to implement this Study?
Recommendation:
1. Select and approve a plan to construct these facilities, preferably in
phases.
2. Direct the City Manager and City Financial Advisor to prepare a financing
program for the plan selected.
4
3. Upon approval of the financing program, direct the City Manager to
develop a project scope for the initial phase including time line, marketing
plan, public input process, etc. Note: If the City Council selects bond
issuance as a means to help fund the initial phase; then, the City Council
should direct the City Manager, City Financial Advisor, Bond Counsel and
City Attorney to draft a resolution declaring the City's intent to reimburse
itself from bond proceeds for certain contributions to the Project. (Section
1.150-2 of the United States Treasury Regulations requires that a
governmental entity planning to use bond proceeds to reimburse itself for
project related expenditures made prior to the issuance of bonds formally
declare its reasonable official intent to use bond proceeds for that purpose.
For example, the City Council might select an architect to develop a
preliminary design of the proposed initial phase facilities—that is, to show
the public the type of facilities to be built and intended floor plan for same
prior to the bond election itself.)
Alternative to Recommendation:
1. Do not approve the above described actions and/or take no action.
If you have any questions,please do not hesitate to contact me.

Attachments: Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D
Note:
[1] During the Workshop, the City Council also asked about the amount of land
necessary to construct a Town Center consisting of a City Hall, Public Safety Building,
Library/Community Center, Recreation Center, and necessary parking. A representative
of Brinkley Sargent suggests that the Center would need between 20 and 25 acres to
accommodate these facilities—that is, depending upon the final location of each facility,
etc.
[2] As noted, the City should seriously consider selling the undeveloped portion of the
City Hall tract for commercial/retail/office uses, which could generate approximately
$1,000,000 based on 152,000 square feet at $6.50 per foot. If sold, these funds could
5
help defray the cost of the Third Fire Station, especially if the station construction cost
was capped at $1.2 million, excluding land acquisition and design costs.

Public Hearing Item No. 3
City of Wylie
ZBOA No. 2005-06
Zoning Board of Adjustment Public Hearing: February 21, 2005
Owner/Applicant: City of Wylie
Location: 949 Hensley, Abstract No. 193, Tract 5
Request: Variance to Section 5.5(A) of the Zoning Ordinance to
extend the required 90 day temporary use to three years
to allow for a portable building to expand office space.
Background:
The subject property is occupied by the Public Services Division offices of the City of Wylie,
and is zoned Agricultural District. These spaces are now crowded and expansion of permanent
facilities are in the planning stage. The City is requesting a variance to the 90 day time limit for
a temporary use. In order to continue to provide services in an effective manner the City must
expand office space, and various options are under consideration. The most fiscally
responsible option is to utilize a portable building temporarily. This request will extend the
required 90 day temporary use to a three year temporary use to allow sufficient time for the
planning and design of additional permanent space.
Section 8.4(E)(4)(b) of the Zoning Ordinance provides that the Zoning Board of Adjustments
may permit a variance to the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance if the variance is not
contrary to the public interest and, due to special conditions of the site, a literal enforcement of
the ordinance would result in unnecessary hardship, and so that the spirit of the Ordinance is
observed and substantial justice is done. The Board may impose any reasonable conditions on
the issuance of a variance and may amend the variance from that requested. The concurring
vote of 75 percent of the members of the Board shall be necessary to reverse any order,
requirement, decision or determination of any administrative official, or to decide in favor of the
applicant to effect any variance in the Ordinance. In order to grant a variance to the
development code the Board shall find that all the following have been satisfied:
(1) That there are unique physical circumstances or conditions of the lot, or other
exceptional physical condition particular to the affected property;
(2) That because of these unique physical circumstances or conditions, the
property cannot be reasonably developed or used in compliance with the
provisions of the development code;
ZBOA 2005-06
(3) That due to such unique physical circumstances or conditions, the strict
application of the development code would create a demonstrated hardship;
(4) That the demonstrable hardship is not self-imposed;
(5) That the variance if granted will not adversely affect the proposed development
or use of adjacent property or neighborhood;
(6) That the variance, if granted will not change the character of the zoning district
in which the property is located;
(7) That the variance, if granted is in keeping with the intent of the development
code; and
(8) That the variance, if granted will not adversely affect the health, safety or
welfare of the citizens of Wylie.
Considerations:
1. The city has initiated planning for additional facilities (see attachment). A portable building
is the most fiscally responsible option to obtain the additional office space needed to
address current over crowding.
2. It is uncertain at this time when additional permanent facilities will be available, but the
portable building will be utilized for no more than a three (3) year period.
3. The temporary building will comply with all regulations of the code, including setbacks,
parking, utilities and exterior materials.
4. At the time this property was purchased and developed for the public use, the Zoning
Ordinance did not restrict the installation and use of temporary buildings. Several uses
throughout Wylie still have temporary buildings which were installed legally under previous
codes, including Sanden, the old Carlisle tract and several WISD sites for classes and
administration. The new bank on S.H. 78 and Jackson, constructed under the current code,
used a temporary building for business offices while the new facility was under construction
but for no more than the allowed 90 days.
5. Public comment forms were mailed out to sixteen (16) property owners within 200 feet of
this request, as required by State Law. No comment forms had been received at the time
of this posting.

RE: City of Wylie Variance Application - Temporary Building
2000 Highway 78 North
949 Hensley
ADDlicable conditions:
(A) That special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the
land, structure or building involved and which are not applicable to other
lands, structures, or buildings in the same district.
For some time, the City has been evaluating options to relieve overcrowding within the
Police Department. Staffmg in the Police Department has increased significantly over
the past few years with no commensurate increase in office space. Likewise, staffing for
the entire organization has increased, with no increase in building space. The increase in
staffing within the Police Department has been to ensure that necessary ratios between
staff and population are maintained to effectively provide service and to continue to
maintain low crime rates.
The options evaluated included renovating the existing building, leasing office space off-
site or a portable building. Because of the existing jail and communication infrastructure,
it was determined that the Police Department staffmg needed to stay within the existing
Municipal Building. The most logical option was to expand into the adjacent area which
currently houses the Building Inspection Department. Because most of the citizens who
interact with Building Inspection also interact with other departments within the
Municipal Building, an off-site office was determined to be ineffective in terms of
provision of service.
As such, the need to provide adequate and efficient public services is a condition which is
specific to the City's property and is not applicable to other land within the same district.
(b) That literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would
deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in
the same district under the terms of this ordinance.
Because the City of Wylie is a public entity, decisions regarding our facilities must be
made with the opportunity for the general public to provide input. This is a process that
takes a considerable amount of time. Evidence of this is found in the fact that the City
has engaged the services of a consulting firm to prepare a Facility Needs Assessment.
Several months have been spent on the process, with a Worksession being conducted by
the City Council on January 27,2005. Please fmd attached a memo from City Manager
Mark B. Roath to the Wylie City Council which outlines different options regarding the
ongoing Study. Adequate permanent facilities would not be available until 2007 at the
soonest, pending approval of a bond election. The limitation of 90 days is a time frame
that a public entity cannot meet.
(c) That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from the
actions of the appHcants.
While the growth in staffmg is an action of the applicant, it is necessitated by the growth
in the community and the expectation on the part of the community for the provision of
servIce.
(d) That granting the variance request will not confer on the applicant any
special privilege that is denied by this ordinance to other lands, structure
or buildings in the same district.
While the City of Wylie does have certain unique characteristics which support the
approval of a variance, other not-for-profit agencies are not precluded from submitting
similar requests, with similar justifications.
(e) No nonconforming use of neighboring lands, structures, or buildings in
other districts shall be considered grounds for the issuance of a variance.
The City of Wylie is not basing its application on the condition of adjacent properties.
(f) Financial hardship shall not be considered grounds for the issuance of a
variance.
Financial hardship is not factor in this request. It is, however, the City's responsibility to
provide services in the most efficient and economical way as possible without sacrificing
quality.
THE CITY OF WYLIE
MANAGER'S MEMORANDUM
DATE ISSUED: February 17,2005 MEMORANDUM NO, 05-07
ATTENTION: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBJECT: Facilities Space Needs Study Presentation and Questions Asked
During the Workshop, the Mayor and City Council directed City Staff to respond
back with additional information about the Study. Specifically, you asked us to answer
the following questions:
1, What about an Option that includes shell space in lieu of finishing a
building, i.e. City Hall or Library or both?
2. What financial revenue sources might be available to fund this Study
including land the City could sell to aid in the construction?
3. What other capital improvement projects might need to be considered
during the initial phase of this Study?
4. And, what steps might the City take to implement this Study?
BACKGROUND
Over the past several years, the City has been considering various long-term
facility space alternatives for the City Hall, Library, Recreation Center, Fire Station,
Community Center, Public Works Center and other municipal buildings, In 2004,
Brinkley Sargent Architects was hired to produce a report on our facility needs.
DISCUSSION
1. What about an Option that includes shell space in lieu offinishing a building, i.e.
City Hall or Library or both?
In January 2005, Brinkley Sargent presented the Mayor and City Council with
three options for addressing our facility needs (see attachments). The options were as
follows:
Option A. Construct a new City Hall, Library (Phase I) and Recreation Center by
mid-2007; construct Police and Courts, Fire Administration and EOC,
Public Works, Senior Center (Renovate Library), Animal Shelter and
1
Parks Maintenance (existing Animal Shelter) by mid-20IO; then, construct
Library (Phase II) by mid-20IS.
Ovtion B. Construct a new Recreation Center, Library (Phase I), Police and Courts
and Fire Administration and EOC by mid-2007; construct a City Hall,
Public Works, Senior Center (renovate Library), Animal Shelter and Park
Maintenance (existing Shelter) by mid-20IO; then, construct Library
(Phase II) by mid-20IS.
Option C. Construct a new City Hall and Library (Phase I) by mid-2007; construct
Fire Administration and EOC, Public Works, Recreation Center and
Senior Center (renovate Library) by mid-20 10; construct Police and
Courts, Animal Shelter and Park Maintenance (existing Shelter) by mid-
2013; then, construct Library (Phase II) by mid-20IS,
Options A, Band C are estimated to cost $50,180,264, $49,930,201 and $52,788,726
respectively, which includes an escalator factor.
After the Workshop, I met with representatives of Brinkley Sargent to address the
Mayor and City Council's questions about their presentation. In the course of answering
these concerns an additional alternative (Option D) emerged (see attachment), It is as
follows:
Option D, Construct a new City Hall, Library (Phase I) and Public Works (Phase I)
by mid-2007; construct Police, Courts, Fire, EOC and Communications
(renovate the existing City Hall) and Senior Center (renovate Library) by
Spring-2009; construct Animal Shelter by mid-201O; construct Public
Works (Phase II) and Park Maintenance by Spring-2013; construct a
Public Safety Facility, Library (Phase II) by mid-20IS; then, complete the
City Half shell space by Spring-20I7 or earlier as-needed,
Option D is estimated to cost $42,799,993, which include an escalator factor.
This Option would result in:
. The City Hall being built to 2014 space needs; then, constructing the remainder of
the improvemen~s (finishing the shell space) by 2017 or earlier as-needed,
. The Library being constructed to 25,000 square feet; then, completing the
remainder ofthe improvements by 2015.
. The Public Works Center being built to accommodate more office as well as
assembly area for personnel; then, completing the remainder of the improvements
by 2013.
. The renovation of the existing City Hall to accommodate Police, Courts, Fire,
EOC and Communications; then, constructing a new Public Safety Building by
2015,
2
It should be noted, under this Option, the City would construct the Third Fire
Station from other funds, i.e, for example, proceeds from the sale of the undeveloped
portion of the current City Hall tract and General Fund monies, and the Recreation
Center from 4B Funds and/or grants, as they become available.
This Option strength is:
. That the Facility Study cost would be spread out over a longer period of time;
thus, resulting in a decreased financial impact on taxpayers,
. That a phased approach would be used for key new construction, which is more
efficient and cost effective. (Here, phasing means either construct the building
but leaving considerable shell space (i.e. City Hall) or constructing the building in
such a way as to make it expandable (i,e, Library),)
. That existing municipal facilities would be used more under this option-namely,
the existing City Hall would be renovated for Police, Courts, Fire, EOC and
Communications; the existing Library would be renovated for a Senior Center and
the existing Animal Shelter would be renovated for a Park Maintenance facility,
Note: The City would need to construct the new City Hall, new Library and new
Animal Shelter prior to any existing facility being renovated,
This Option weakn~ss is:
. That the City will take longer to complete these facility improvements; thus,
potentially pushing up borrowing as well as construction costs.
. And that, with a longer facilities improvement schedule, the City risks the danger
of other "more important capital improvements" interfering with these scheduled
facility improvements; thus, further pushing out the completion of the remaining
projects on the list.
2. What financial revenue sources might be available to fund this Study including
land the City could sell to aid in the construction?
The planning process to implement the Study will need to include a financing
alternative. Understandable, the importance of a number of policy issues including but
not limited to overall cost, bonding capacity, credit rating impact, design and location
will determine which option is pursued, Some form of municipal tax exempt bond
financing should be explored, A second alternative might involve partnering with a
private developer. This would utilize private financing with debt service funded by lease
payments to the developer with ultimate ownership by the City at the end of the lease,
This alternative, although potentially more expensive would have the advantage of
limiting the impact to the City's bonding capacity or credit rating. A third alternative
may be partnering with the county on a larger government complex.
With respect to City land that might be sold, the City Council should explore
selling the front (undeveloped) portion of the City Hall tract. This tract might bring the
3
City an estimated $1,000,000 million dollars. Note: The City might have other land,
which could be sold to help defray the cost of these facility improvements as well,
3. What other capital improvement projects might need to be considered during the
initial phase of this Study?
Recently, the City Administration began development of a Capital Improvement
Program (CIP), which will include all proposed infrastructure improvements over
$50,000 and all proposed equipment purchases over $25,000 for the next five fiscal
years, from 2006 to 2011. Said CIP will be completed in March, 2005 and then presented
to the City Council for review and possible adoption,
In the meantime, however, the City Engineer has identified certain road
improvement projects that might require long-term financing during the next ten years
that you should be aware of:
Year Proiect Estimated Amount
2008 FM 1378 (Brown to Parker) $9,682,000*
2008 Stone Road (Ballard to Collins) 7,387,500
2009 McMillen Road (park Road) 4,528,750
2009 Brown Street (SH 78 to Anson) 5,544,500
2009 SH78 5,876,830
2010 McMillan Road 5,388,750
2015 Park Blvd, 7,372,000
Proposed Improvement Total $45,780,330
Note: At this point, the City is committed to the FM 1378 Project only, according
to the City Engineer. As such, the City Council should consider including that cost in
any financial plan for the initial phase of this Study as well.
4. What steps might the City take to implement this Study?
Recommendation:
1. Select and approve a plan to construct these facilities, preferably in
phases,
2, Direct the City Manager and City Financial Advisor to prepare a financing
program for the plan selected.
4
3. Upon approval of the financing program, direct the City Manager to
develop a project scope for the initial phase including time line, marketing
plan, public input process, etc. Note: If the City Council selects bond
issuance as a means to help fund the initial phase; then, the City Council
should direct the City Manager, City Financial Advisor, Bond Counsel and
City Attorney to draft a resolution declaring the City's intent to reimburse
itself from bond proceeds for certain contributions to the Project. (Section
1.150-2 of the United States Treasury Regulations requires that a
governmental entity planning to use bond proceeds to reimburse itself for
project related expenditures made prior to the issuance of bonds formally
declare its reasonable official intent to use bond proceeds for that purpose.
For example, the City Council might select an architect to develop a
prelimin'!IY design of the proposed initial phase facilities-that is, to show
the public the type of facilities to be built and intended floor plan for same
prior to the bond election itself.)
Alternative to Recommendation:
1. Do not approve the above described actions and/or take no action,
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me,

Note:
[IJ During the Workshop, the City Council also asked about the amount of land
necessary to construct a Town Center consisting of a City Hall, Public Safety Building,
Library/Community Center, Recreation Center, and necessary parking. A representative
of Brinkley Sargent suggests that the Center would need between 20 and 25 acres to
accommodate these facilities-that is, depending upon the final location of each facility,
etc,
[2J As noted, the City should seriously consider selling the undeveloped portion of the
City Hall tract for commercial/retail/office uses, which could generate approximately
$1,000,000 based on 152,000 square feet at $6,50 per foot. If sold, these funds could
5
help defray the cost of the Third Fire Station, especially if the station construction cost
was capped at $1.2 million, excluding land acquisition and design costs,
