Items as presented. A vote was taken and motion passed 7-0.
Mayor Porter convened the Council into a Work Session at 7:15 p.m.
WORK SESSION
WSl.Alcoholic Beverages on City owned Property and Special Events.
City Manager Hoisted stated this item was brought before Council at the previous meeting and Council had
requested a work session to discuss various items. City Attorney Pittman addressed Council speaking to the
authority the City has to regulate alcoholic beverages on City property.The City's ability to regulate alcoholic
beverage consumption or possession in the City is more limited than what our current ordinance allows for,
and the City's ability to enforce and regulate is limited by the Texas Alcohol Beverage Code. The City can
only regulate on City property as the property owner. The proposed Ordinance brings the City more in line in
with what the law allows the City to do in terms of regulations.
Chris Segrest,representing FBC Wylie, addressed Council clarifying comments made by him at the previous
Council meeting. Segrest requested Council consider adding improvements to Downtown in the upcoming
Bond propositions, and added the church would be interested in discussing a joint venture with the City
regarding a parking deck if the City.was interested. Segrest stated with the planning of an event, the event
organizer should have to provide a parking plan for the said event, and the church would be willing to discuss
the parking plan with the event organizer. Segrest stated he would like to reach an amicable agreement that
would benefit the City, the citizens, and the church.
Janet Smith, representing The Borough, addressed Council stating parking is an issue downtown; however,
the City is competing against other local cities and our residents travel to other city's events and spend their
money there. Smith stated having events downtown brings business to the downtown area, and to restrict the
downtown area from holding events which allow alcohol because of parking concerns would be a detriment
to downtown.
Mandi Wilson, resident, addressed Council stating they attend events in other cities and it would be nice for
similar events to be close to home.
Bobby Heath, resident, addressed Council stating he supports alcohol sales at events held downtown.
Hoisted stated the WEDC is working with the railroad to lease property west of Birmingham to allow for
future additional parking downtown, and staff is currently working on updating the special events ordinance.
He added he spoke with Pastor Segrest regarding concerns of the City and church,and added it might be time
for a parking agreement between the two entities.Hoisted stated all requests for events to allow alcohol would
come before Council for approval,as some events may not be appropriate to have alcohol at,and stated he has
concerns with being restrictive to not allow events with alcohol downtown could move events away from
downtown which defeats bringing individuals to the downtown area.
After discussion amongst Council pertaining to: TABC regulations, if the proposed Ordinance is the
appropriate document to address the exception in rather than the special events ordinance,downtown parking
concerns, the benefits it could bring for businesses and Wylie, the direction of Council was to move forward
with the proposed Ordinance as presented as Council has the discretion to not allow events that allow alcohol
until the City updates the special events ordinance that would require the organizer to have a parking plan in
place for the event.

Staff Comments
Planning Manager Haskins addressed Council stating the applicant is requesting to rezone 4.728 acres located
on the southeast corner of FM 544 and Springwell Parkway. The property is currently zoned Planned
Development 2017-03. The reason for the requested rezoning is to revert the land back to its previous zoning
designation of Commercial Corridor. The reversion in zoning is requested as the existing Planned
Development and Zoning Exhibit were designed for a specific grocery store that was not developed, and is
incompatible with other future development. Haskins reported 19 notifications were mailed and no responses
were received in opposition or in favor of the request. The Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval.

Mayor Porter reconvened the Council into Regular Session at 8:32 p.m.
Staff Comments
Planning Manager Haskins addressed Council stating the applicant is requesting to rezone 10.911 acres
generally located on the southeast corner of Country Club Road and Park Boulevard. The purpose for the
requested rezoning to a Planned Development (PD) is to allow for the construction of 95 townhome units as
depicted on the zoning exhibit. The PD conditions propose the construction of townhome units with a
minimum lot size of 1,650 sq. ft. to 2,375 sq. ft. For comparison, the typical standard minimum lot size of
properties located within the base Townhome Zoning District are 3,000 sq. ft for interior lots and 3,500 sq. ft.
for exterior lots,representing a 21-53 percent difference in lot size requirements. Residential lots are typically
required to provide 30 foot of street frontage; however, as part of the design for the rear entry lots, the PD is
requesting 24-foot alleys with rear entry instead of 31-foot streets to allow for open space areas off the front
of the townhomes. In addition to the residential lots, the development contains open space lots that are to be
owned and maintained by the Homeowners Association. The lot located northeast is a drainage retention area
with the lot located southeast being an open space connector lot of approximately 8,500 sq. ft. The retention 111
area was redefined at the P&Z Commission meeting from a strictly detention area to a retention area with a
fountain.The properties adjacent to the subject property are generally zoned single family residential with the
exception of the commercial properties on the corner of Country Club Road and Park Boulevard. The subject
property lies within the General Urban Sector of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan which allows for high
density residential within a mixed-use development. The proposal doesn't offer a commercial component to
complete the mixed-use requirement. Haskins reported 33 notifications were mailed within the 200-foot limit
as required by State Law; with one response received in opposition and none in favor of the request within the
notification area. One response in opposition was received from a resident outside the notification area, but
within the subdivision to the south(Birmingham Ph13A).After some discussion the Commission voted 5-2 to
recommend approval with the conditions the detention pond be a retention pond and a minimum five-foot
landscape buffer be in place adjacent to all existing residential property and the applicant revised the zoning
exhibit.
Applicant Comments
Jerry Sylo,representing JBI Partners, addressed Council giving a presentation on the proposed Villas on Park
which included: neighborhood context, neighborhood concept, building architecture renditions, development
standards,visitor parking,attached greens,and mews lots.

Council Comments
Councilman Wallis asked if the applicant reached out to the ISD to see the impact this neighborhood would
have on their attendance. Sylo responded they did not reach out but thought it is part of the City process; and
added the demographic of the townhomes is typically single or retired, and does not typically consist of a lot
of children. Haskins responded the school district is on the distribution list for any proposed development,and
added Dodd Elementary was in the notification area and was provided a response letter and the City did not
receive a response back. Wallis asked if this is the best use when Park Boulevard becomes four lanes in the
future; and added he is not convinced this is the best use for the area and does not like the proposed density.
Councilman Williams stated he agreed with Wallis and asked regarding the 57 additional parking spots if the
fire department approved the fire lanes as he was concerned with parking on the street and fire apparatus
getting through. Haskins responded the additional parking spots are not marked parking spaces,and with a 31-
foot curb to curb, on street parking is generally okay. Councilman Strang stated he shared the same parking
concerns as Williams and asked if there are cars parked on both sides, what amount is left to drive through.
Hoisted replied with cars parked on both sides of the street, it would allow 14 feet of drivable space. Strang
stated he agreed with Wallis' density concerns; expressed architectural drawing concerns with it not being
masonry; and the proposed median break on Country Club. Sylo replied that in the development standards it
states the requirements of the exterior facade, and they worked with the City Engineer to ensure the median
break is adequate. Mayor Porter expressed concerns with the small lot size and high density, reduction in
garage size, not adequate parking, and the viability of the commercial property left. Councilman Mize stated
he thought the project has potential,but would like to see the overall size of the project reduced to achieve the
best use of the property and stated it may be appropriate to rezone a portion of the property for residential,but
not the amount being proposed. Williams stated he has heard from citizens that this type of development is not
what they were promised when they purchased their homes. Strang asked the applicant if they would be open
to reducing the amount of the proposed residential as Mize stated. Sylo responded if Council is open to giving
them an opportunity to relook at the project to see if the applicant can incorporate some of the feedback
received into a design that works for the homebuilder and the City, they would appreciate it if Council would
table the request to give them the opportunity to do that and work with staff. Sylo did request if Council is
going to deny the item,to not deny with prejudice so there is not a year time restriction where another applicant
could not submit a similar project. Councilman Duke expressed concerns with traffic,garage size,not being a
good fit for Wylie,and the residents being promised neighborhood services on this property, not townhomes.
Council Action
A motion was made by Mayor pro tem Forrester, seconded by Councilman Strang, to deny a request for a
change of zoning from Neighborhood Services(NS)to Planned Development-Townhome(PD-TH),to allow
for a townhome development on 10.911 acres,generally located at the southeast corner of Country Club Road
and Park Boulevard(ZC2021-04). A vote was taken and motion passed 7-0.
6. Hold a Public Hearing,consider, and act upon, a request for a change of zoning from Single Family
10/24(SF 10/24) to Commercial Corridor(CC),to allow for commercial development on 0.433 acres
located at 605 Parker Road(ZC2021-08).
Staff Comments
Planning Manager Haskins addressed Council stating the applicant is requesting to rezone 0.433 acres. The
property is currently zoned Single Family 10/24 and the applicant is requesting to change it to Commercial
Corridor(CC). In 2019,the applicant requested,and was approved for,rezoning of this property to SF-10/24
to build a single-family home. The zoning exhibit included in that case showed a single-family home set back
350 feet off of Parker to allow for potential rezoning on the frontage to Commercial. The reason for the
requested rezoning is to allow for an office development to be utilized by the property owner. Haskins reported
four notifications were mailed and no responses were received in opposition or in favor of the request. The
Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval.

7. Consider, and act upon, Ordinance No. 2021-28 amending Wylie's Code of Ordinances, Ordinance
No. 2021-17, as amended, Appendix C (Wylie Comprehensive Fee Schedule), Section I (Water and
Sewer Fees),Subsection C (Sewage Collection and Treatment Rates).
Staff Comments
Finance Director Beard addressed Council stating in December 2020, Council directed staff to explore
applying senior sewer rates to utility customers residing in multi-family facilities. Currently, no senior rates
are extended to multi-family facilities because traditionally, multi-family facilities are mixed with senior and
non-senior occupants. Sewer costs are not billed individually by the City, but to the property management of
these facilities based on the number of units in the complex times the regular flat rate of$51.99. The amount
subsequently charged to individual occupants of the complex is determined by the property management
company, not the City of Wylie. Beard stated there is one multi-family facility in the City that is an age
restricted senior multi-family facility according to Collin Appraisal District records. Staff recommends
amending the Comprehensive Fee Schedule to allow age restricted senior multi-family facilities to be billed
for sewer services at the senior sewer flat rate,currently$36.67.
Council Comments
Mayor pro tern Forrester asked how this affects revenue based on annual rate study.Beard replied if the senior
rate is allowed for this one complex, it would result in a reduction of revenue of$60,000 annually.
Council Action
A motion was made by Mayor pro tem Forrester, seconded by Councilman Strang, to approve Ordinance No.
2021-28 amending Wylie's Code of Ordinances, Ordinance No. 2021-17, as amended, Appendix C (Wylie

8. Consider, and act upon, authorizing the City Manager to sign a Development Agreement pending

1), Samuel Sims and Ann Sims (owner Tract 2 and 2.1) and Skorberg Retail Corporation(Applicant
-Beaver Creek Estates)for the development of a single family planned development generally located
on Beaver Creek Road and Green Meadows Way.
Staff Comments
Planning Manager Haskins addressed Council stating the applicant and associated property owners have
requested to enter into a Development Agreement with the City of Wylie for the potential annexation and
zoning of property on the southside of Beaver Creek Road adjacent to the existing Bozman Farms subdivision.
Currently, the property consists of three tracts of land of 17.06 acres, 3.5152 acres, and 8.61 acres, all within
Wylie's ETJ. The zoning request will be a Planned Development(PD)with a zoning exhibit and development

standards similar to those presented in the Development Agreement, respectively. The applicant is proposing
112 residential lots on the property. The applicant's stated intent is to maintain the same general development
design conditions of Bozman Farms. The applicant will dedicate right-of-way for the future expansion of
111
Beaver Creek Road. The Development Agreement also addresses building materials as it relates to HB 2439.
The applicant understands that approval of this agreement is not a guarantee of zoning approval.
Applicant Comments
Bryan Holland, representing Skorburg Company, addressed Council giving a presentation on the proposed
Beaver Creek Estates including: Skorburg company background, Skorburg Company projects in Wylie,
subject property location, steps to entitlements, proposed zoning request, property features, adjacent
neighbors' concerns, and representative product.
Mayor pro tem Forrester expressed concerns with the roads used to access the development.Holland responded
the intent use is that Beaver Creek would be the main entrance to the neighborhood.
Citizen Comments
Wolf Blauen, Betsy Cowan, Jared Larew, David Finch, Jeff Turner, and Dan Mingea addressed Council
expressing concerns with the proposed development including: the increase of traffic, road conditions, safety
issues,construction noise, light,water, and noise pollution, school capacity, and looking at a better use of the
property for a potential neighborhood with larger lots and more green space.
Council Comments
Mayor Porter expressed concerns with the increased traffic on the roads, having no amenities proposed like
Bozman Farms offers, smaller garages, layout concerns, and not in favor as it currently exists but is not
opposed to a different plan and layout. Councilman Wallis expressed concerns with traffic,and stated he is not
opposed to some form of development, but the proposed density is a major concern and does not fit the area
' as proposed. Councilman Mize stated he heard and understands the traffic safety concerns expressed. Mize
asked the applicant about minimum front and backyard setbacks compared to Bozman Farms. Holland
responded that house sizes have increased over the years and cities are leaning towards a 20-foot front to keep
cars off of the sidewalk when parked in driveways which leaves about a 20-foot rear yard. Mize asked if the
proposed walking path,which is not aligned with the one at Bozman Farms,had the ability to line up. Holland
responded that this project is very conceptual at this time and if this project continues forward, they could
bring something back in the PD to connect the paths. Holland added this site has some challenges in that the
sewer comes from Bozman Farms and has to cross Beaver Creek Road, and in order for the sewer to flow
correctly, the southside of the property has to be raised with dirt and a retaining wall along the floodplain.
Holland added these costs, as well as the current cost of land, contributes to the proposed density of the
development. Williams expressed concerns with the proposed high density and would like to see less density
and more green space.
Council Action
A motion was made by Councilman Mize to approve authorizing the City Manager to sign a Development
Agreement pending Annexation, between the City of Wylie, Norwood Brown and Jenn Quattrone-Brown
