Public Hearing
Zoning Case 2017-07—Amend PD 2016-37 & PD 2016-27
Hold a Public Hearing and Consider, and act upon, a recommendation to the City Council
to amend Planned Development 2016-37-Single Family District and Planned Development
2016-27 (PD2016-27-SF) to include an additional 2 acres, adjust the allowed total lot
count, and to allow a day care use, generally located east of Sachse Road/Ballard Ave. and
south of Pleasant Valley Road. ZC2017-07.
Staff Presentation
Ms. 011ie stated that the owner is requesting to amend an existing Planned
Development Ordinance to include the 2 acres tract that was annexed into the city limits
on April 25, 2017. The proposed PD eliminates the maximum density of 2.7 homes per
gross acre. Instead, the lot mix is divided by lot types and indicates a slight increase in
Type A 70' width lots, all other lot widths remain the same.
The addition of the 2-acre tract will increase the lot count from 975 to 1025 maximum
lot count. The current PD Conditions allow minimum of 98 lots to have a 70 feet wide.
The proposed conditions will allow minimum of 148 lots with a 70 feet width.
In response to State Law Two Hundred and Thirty-Six notifications were mailed and
three (3) responses were received in opposition of the proposed Day Care Use.
Board Discussion
Mr. Ron Haynes, Wylie DPV Limited, 8214 Westchester, Suite 950, Dallas,
owner/developer for the subject property, stated that when the property was zoned four
years ago, the preliminary engineering drawings were done onsite. Phase I has about
200 homes, and Phase II is starting to develop about 215 homes. Extensive planning
and engineering of the development, the engineer has determined more lots available
in the development. The open space would remain in place, as well as the 50 foot wide
and 60 foot wide minimum number of lots. The proposed allows increase width size
for the larger lots.
Mr. Haynes gave the Commissioner a presentation explaining the concept layout for
the day care. His intention is to construct the day care at four-lane divided perimeter,
which is either Pleasant Valley Road,or Sachse/Ballard Road. The exact location is not
determined. The day care would not be limited to the community of Dominion of
Pleasant Valley, and would not be part of the Homeowners Association.
Public Comments
Chair Owens opened the Public Hearing.
Mr. Shawn Montague, 225 Red Bud Pass, spoke in opposition of the day care due to
increase traffic, noise and parking overflow on Dominion.

Mr. Lance Barron, 223 Red Bud Pass, spoke in opposition of the day care due to
increase traffic and property taxes. The proposed concept location is a major issue,
would like to see either a stop sign or traffic signal at Sachse/Ballard and Dominion.
Mr. Marlon Anding, 119 Live Oak Drive, spoke in opposition of the day care due to
traffic, and impact to property value and taxes. He just retired from military service and
would like to have peace and quality of life.
Mr. Craig Brown,202 Red Bud Pass, spoke in opposition of the day care due to existing
traffic and safety concerns.
Commissioners questioned the City Engineer, Tim Porter, of the plans for
Sachse/Ballard Road and Pleasant Valley Road. Mr. Porter stated that the County will
dictate the plans for expansion of both Sachse/Ballard Road to a four-lane divided road,
as well Dominion of Pleasant Valley for a four-lane divided road. The City of Wylie
may fund a portion of that expansion, but the funds are not available and a plan is not
designed.
Mr. Haynes rebutted the comments by stating that the Day Care facility would not be
developed without a four lane divided road in front of it.
Commissioner Myers gave a personal experience on opposing a proposed request. He
was against a WalMart Neighborhood Store coming in a couple of years ago. Today,
the store is very convenient, no issues for traffic or safety. He further stated that a Day
Care Facility within the Dominion Pleasant Valley would be a great asset to the
community, mainly due to close to home, and convenient for the parents. He further
appreciated the public to come in and voice opinion.
Chair Owens closed the Public Hearing.
Board Discussion
Chair Owens reminded the Commissioners of another option to consider. The subject
item can be approved with modification to the Planned Development with stipulation
that a Day Care Facility be allowed by Specific Use Permit only. This gives the
Commissioners oversight as a public hearing and allow the property owners to come in
and voice concerns.
A motion was made by Commissioner Rogers, and seconded by Commissioner Myers,
to recommend approval to the City Council to amend Planned Development 2016-37-
Single Family District and Planned Development 2016-27 (PD2016-27-SF) to include
an additional 2 acres and adjust the allowed total lot count, with stipulations that a day
care use be allowed with Specific Use Permit. Property located east of Sachse
Road/Ballard Avenue and south of Pleasant Valley Road. ZC 2017-07. Motion carried
4 -1, with Commissioner McCrossin voting in opposition.
