INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION
Public Hearing

Single Family 8.5/17 with Special Use Permit (SUP) for an Amateur Communications Tower.
Subject property being located at 106 N. Carriage House Way, and being Lot 5, Block 15 of
Westgate Phase 1 Addition, City of Wylie, Collin County, Texas. (Zoning Case 2003-14)
Executive Summary
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit(SUP)in order to attach a tower to his existing single-family residence for
the operation of an amateur radio station. The new tower/antenna will replace three connected monolithic poles with
stationary wire antenna currently attached to the residence and fence. The new tower will be attached to the rear roof-line
of the residence. The tower will be thirty(30)feet high and will be tubular truss construction. The antenna will be 28 feet
wide grid constructed of four 1.5 inch metal tubes.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ultimately controls the operation of individual amateur radio
communicators as well as the limits to which local governments such as Wylie may restrict such operations.
Public Comment Forms were mailed to thirty-two(32)property owners within 200 feet of this request. Four(4) Comment
Forms have been returned at the time of posting, two opposing and two favoring the request. These responses allow a
simple-majority decision by the Council.
At the January 6, 2004 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting,the Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the
proposed zoning change,with the stipulation that the tower not exceed thirty-five feet(35')in height.
Staff recommends approval.

Executive Summary
Article IV, Section 1.D. of the Wylie City Charter requires the City Manager,within 30 days of taking office, to designate a
staff member to serve as the Acting City Manager in their absence. A letter designating the Acting City Manager is to be
filed with the City Secretary and ratified by the City Council. Under normal circumstances, the Assistant City Manager
functions in this capacity, however, staff recommends that Chief Jeff Butters fill this position in the event of the absence or

Motion to remove from table and:
3. Consider and act upon an agreement with Bozman Farms Development, Ltd. for reimbursement
through impact fees for the construction of the Rush Creek 30-inch outfall sewer line.
Executive Summary
The Bozman Farms development is located south of Brown and east of FM 544. The Rush Creek sewer lift station is
located along the north edge of the development and the new Rush Creek sewer lift station is located at the southern end of
the development on Troy Road. A portion of the 30-inch sewer line has been installed to provide service to the Bozman
Farms development, however, approximately 1,650 linear feet is necessary to connect the new Rush Creek lift station to
the City's sewer system. The existing Rush Creek lift station has reached its useful life and the installation of the sewer
line will allow the removal of the station. The proposed agreement allows the developer to receive reimbursement through
impact fees for the installation of the sewer line.
4. Consider and act upon approval of a Resolution of the city council of the City of Wylie, Texas,
determining a public necessity to acquire, by purchase or condemnation, certain property; giving
notice of an official determination to acquire property for the Alanis Drive paving project;

The Alanis Drive project from SH 78 to Ballard Ave. is a new alignment and requires the purchase of multiple properties.
The majority of the right-of-way for the project has been purchased: however, some of the remaining parcels may be
acquired through condemnation. The resolution establishes a public necessity to acquire five parcels by condemnation if
necessary.

subdivision which includes the park, and has requested that the City consider entering into an agreement that would allow-
them to construct the public improvements in the park at their costs, to be reimbursed by the City. The proposed
improvements are: 2,200 linear feet of 6' sidewalk, a low water pedestrian bridge, a basketball court, soccer goals, and a
backstop. The developer has already graded the entire park area,including a practice ballfield and a practice soccer field at

AGENDA ITEM NO. D.
January 27, 2004
Issue
Consider and act upon the approval of a water service Agreement between the City of Wylie and
the East Fork Special Utility District.
Background
On September 12, 2000, the City Council approved an agreement with the East Fork Special
Utility District (East Fork) which outlined a transfer of the Certificate of Convenience and
Necessity (CCN) boundary between the two entities. The need for the initial contract was
brought about because Wylie inadvertently accepted impact fees and provided water service to
lots within East Fork's jurisdiction. Wylie agreed to transfer that portion of the Oak Meadow
Subdivision that was within Wylie's jurisdiction to East Fork, in addition to making other,
mutually agreed upon, adjustments to both CCNs. It was also agreed that Wylie would
provide water at a wholesale rate to East Fork for the subdivision until East Fork had the
infrastructure in place to take over the subdivision. The water impact fees collected from the
developer will be utilized to make the necessary infrastructure improvements to serve the Oak
Meadow subdivision.
This Agreement is the final step necessary to satisfy the initial Agreement approved by Council
on September 12, 2000.

Issue
Hold a Public Hearing to consider and act upon a change in zoning from Single Family 8.5/17 to Single Family
8.5/17 with Special Use Permit(SUP)for an Amateur Communications Tower. Subject property being located at 106
N. Carriage House Way, and being Lot 5,Block 15 of Westgate Phase 1 Addition, City of Wylie Collin County, Texas.
(Zoning Case 2003-14)
Background
The applicant is requesting a Special Use Permit(SUP)in order to attach a tower to his existing single-family
residence for the operation of an amateur radio station. The new tower/antenna will replace three connected
monolithic poles with stationary wire antenna currently attached to the residence and fence. The new tower
will be attached to the rear roof-line of the residence. The tower will be thirty(30)feet high and will be tubular
truss construction. The antenna will be a 28 feet wide grid constructed of four 1.5 inch metal tubes.
The subject property was created in 1986 by the platting of the Westgate Phase I Addition, and the subsequent
construction of the applicant-owned single-family residence. At the time the residence was built the property
was zoned Single Family-3 (SF-3)District, but the zoning was changed to Single Family-8.5/17 (SF-8.5/17)
District in November of 2001 with the adoption of the City-wide revisions to the Zoning Ordinance and new
Map. Both the previous and current Ordinances allow amateur radio transmission antennas within residential
districts only with an approved Special Use Permit.
The Federal Communications Commission(FCC)ultimately controls the operation of individual amateur radio
communicators as well as the limits to which local governments such as Wylie may restrict such operations.
The FCC publication PRB-1, states that the FCC "will not specify any particular limitations beyond which a
local government may not regulate, nor will the FCC suggest precise language that must be contained within
local ordinances. Local regulations which involve the placement, screening or height of antennas based on
acceptable health, safety and aesthetic considerations must also be crafted to reasonably accommodate amateur
communications, and to represent the minimum practicable regulation to accomplish the local authority's
legitimate goals and purpose."
Section 5.2.J.7 of the Zoning Ordinance requires an approved Special Use Permit(SUP)for the construction
and operation of such amateur communication towers/antennas within the Single Family-8.5/17 District. The
Ordinance also limits such towers to one(1)per lot,the height of which may not exceed seventy-five(75)feet.
The Ordinance states that such towers may not be located within any front, side or rear setbacks. Single
antennas may not exceed 900 square feet and multiple antennas may not total more than 1,400 square feet.
The Zoning Ordinance allows consideration of a Special Use Permit (SUP) for certain uses within certain
districts as a means to more carefully and specifically evaluate the effects of certain uses on surrounding
properties or when necessary to establish for such uses in such locations any special conditions which insure
that the use is more compatible and consistent with the character of adjacent properties than that use may be
normally in other locations. An SUP does not change the zoning but overlays the existing zoning with site-
specific and limited additional uses and regulations. The Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council
shall evaluate a request for an SUP to determine its probable effect on adjacent properties and the community
as a whole, and may impose any reasonable conditions for the granting of an SUP. Failure at any time to
comply fully with the approved Conditions of the SUP will result in the cancellation of the Certificate of
Occupancy.
Financial Considerations
Zoning Application Fee has been paid.
Other Considerations
1. Public Comment Forms were mailed to thirty-two (32) property owners within 200 feet of this request.
Four (4) Comment Forms have been returned at the time of posting, two opposing and two favoring the
request. These responses allow a simple-majority decision by the Council.
2. All surrounding properties are zoned SF-8.5/17 and are fully developed as such urban-density residences.
This existing pattern is also in compliance with recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan. The
neighborhood is stable, and is expected to maintain its residential uses and character as it ages. The subject
residence is single-story masonry, but neighboring houses are a mixture of single- and two-story.
3. Amateur communications towers/antennas require approval of a Special Use Permit(SUP)because such
towers have the potential to adversely effect the surrounding land uses, especially in regards to the visual or
aesthetic impact of the transmission equipment and interference with the receiving capability of other
communications equipment within the vicinity.
a. The potential for towers and antennas to obstruct views and become an annoyance aesthetically
depends directly on how visible the tower is from neighboring properties, and,therefore,is determined
by the tower's location, height and structural materials. The proposed tower will be located in the rear
yard and attached to the roof overhang of the house. The top of the tower and antenna (at 30 feet
maximum) will be approximately 4 feet higher than the peak of the house roof(26 feet), so will be
largely screened by the roof from the front yard/street-level. The tower will be an open truss
construction with legs/stanchions spaced 14 inches apart, which will provide through visibility and will
blend with the existing residence. It will replace a three-pole antenna which encircles the rear yard(one
pole attached to the house chimney and two attached to side fences). There are several TV receiving
antennas and dishes of similar or greater height and configuration currently visible on neighboring
residences.
b. The FCC confirms the potential for the radio transmitting to interfere with other air-wave
communication receiving equipment within the immediate area (also cited by one of the negative
respondents). Such interference is largely caused by inadequate design and manufacture of the
equipment being interfered with and is most readily solved by adjustments to that equipment. Such
interference may also be caused by electrical equipment within the interfered-with house.
If caused by the radio operations,the interference will occur only when the amateur operator is talking and
the new antenna will rotate to achieve better directional transmission than the existing stationary wire
antenna. The applicant already operates radio communications and there is a second radio transmitting
antenna which is a monopole mounted on the chimney of a neighboring house. The applicant transmits
largely at the midnight hour and during times of emergency and records are maintained of all transmissions.
Therefore, any interference will be limited and/or documentable. Radio transmissions do not interfere with
cable-receiving equipment. (See attached FCC report).
4. There is no record that the required Special Use Permits were approved for either the existing towers on
the applicant's property nor for the tower on the neighboring house. If the SUP is approved,the applicant
will replace the existing pole antennas with the tower and frame antenna, thereby legalizing the existing
operation.
5. A survey of area municipalities reveals that most allow private communication towers and antennas by
right, like other common appurtenances such as chimneys, vents flues, steeples and utility cases. Special
Use Permits are generally not required for towers of a common height(such as that allowed for the main
building or some maximum such as Wylie's 75 feet).
6. The applicant is a member of a not-for-profit private/religious volunteer disaster relief group, and states
that the radio is used primarily in times of such emergencies. However, nothing in the proposed request
establishes limits to the times the radio transmissions may occur. It is common for Special Use Permits to
provide such special conditions, and such provisions may be established as a stipulation for approval if
desired by the Commission and accepted by the applicant.
7. The proposed tower and antenna will comply fully with all applicable regulations of the Zoning Ordinance.
The height of the tower(30 feet rather than the allowed 75 feet) and the size of the antenna(782 square
feet rather than the allowed 900 square feet) are well within the limits allowed by the Ordinance. Any
future towers and antennas on this lot must fully comply with these standard requirements of the
Ordinance. However, in response to neighbors' concerns, the Planning and Zoning Commission
recommended that towers be limited to a maximum of 35 feet.
Board/Commission Recommendation
At the January 6, 2004 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the Commission voted 6-0 to recommend
approval of the proposed zoning change, with the stipulation that the tower not exceed thirty-five feet(35')in
height.
Staff Recommendation
Approval. The use already exists in the neighborhood, the proposed single tower and antenna reduce the
potential for noxious influences on neighboring properties, and construction will comply fully with current code
requirements.

AGENDA ITEM NO. I
January 27, 2004
Issue
Consider and act upon an agreement with Bozman Farms Development,Ltd.for reimbursement
through impact fees for the construction of the Rush Creek 30-inch outfall sewer line.
Background
The Bozman Farms development is located south of Brown and east of FM 544. The Rush Creek sewer
lift station is located along the north edge of the development and the new Rush Creek sewer lift station
is located at the southern end of the development on Troy Road as shown on the attached map. A
portion of the 30-inch sewer line has been installed to provide service to the Bozman Farms
development, however, approximately 1,650 linear feet of 30-inch sewer line is necessary to connect the
new Rush Creek lift station to the City's sewer system. The existing Rush Creek lift station has reached
its useful life and the installation of the sewer line will allow the removal of the station.
The proposed agreement allows the developer to receive reimbursement through impact fees for the
installation of the sewer line. The sewer line is currently identified on the City's Capital Improvements
Plan and is a part of the current impact fee calculation. An impact fee reimbursement agreement is
advantageous because the developer can negotiate a cheaper construction cost than the City can achieve
through the bidding process.
Financial Considerations
The construction cost of the sewer line is$361,960.77. Phase I of the Bozman Farms and Lake Trails of
Bozman Farms development includes 3 82lots for a sewer impact fee of$467,186.00. Reimbursements
will be made to developer as the builders pay the sewer impact fee for the lots in Phase I.

Issue
Consider and act upon authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Reimbursement
Agreement with the Estates at Creekside Phase III Development, Inc. for the
development of a park in Creekside Estates, in an amount not to exceed $60,000.
Background
The approved Planned Development District for Creekside Estates calls for an
approximately 14 acre public park within the subdivision. The developer, represented
by Gary Defrain, is preparing to begin construction of the next phase of the subdivision
which includes the park, and has requested that the City consider entering into an
agreement that would allow them to construct the public improvements in the park at
their costs, to be reimbursed by the City. In the first phase of Creekside, the developer
exceeded their obligations for parkland improvements as set forth in the PD zoning.
The proposed improvements are: 2,200 linear feet of 6' sidewalk, a low water
pedestrian bridge, a basketball court, soccer goals, and a backstop. The developer has
already graded the entire park area, including a practice ballfield and a practice soccer
field at no cost to the City. The estimated cost for the improvements is between
$50,000 and $60,000. The developer is aware that this project is not budgeted for at
this time, and is willing to be reimbursed out of the FY 04/05 budget.
Other Considerations
N/A
Financial Consideration
The budgeted 4B fund balance for FY 30/04 is $506,930. Should the Council wish to
fund the reimbursement during this budget year, adjustments may be made at mid-year.
