CONSIDERATION OF THE MINUTES
OF MAY 14, 1992 Mr. Don Bowen made the motion to approve the minutes as
written. The motion was seconded by Mr. Wayne Moody, and
the motion carried 5-0 with Mr. Collins and Mr. Miller
abstaining due to absence at the previous meeting.
1. PS 92-11
Request of Calvin Sims for Preliminary Plat of Emerald Lakes
Addition. This property is located south of Emerald Hills Way
and east of Norich Park.
Mr. Warren Hagan, 500 Grapevine Highway, Hurst, came
forward to address the Commission. He introduced Mr.
Dennis Spooner, who was representing Mr. Sims. Mr. Hagan
stated that the property was currently zoned R-3, and that all
the lots have a minimum of 7500 square feet. He stated that
some lots were 8400 square feet, and a few were over 10,000
square feet. Mr. Hagan stated that all the lots have greater
than 100 foot depth except for two, which are 90 foot square.
He stated the corner lots provide for rear-, side-, or front-
entry garages. He stated that the street pattern is laid out
with the understanding that Newman Drive is to be extended
through. He stated he understands that the City Council is
considering a proposition to eliminate Newman Drive from
the thoroughfare plan. Mr. Hagan stated that if that happens,
he will come back to the Commission with a new layout.
Chairman Brock stated that he thinks it is a tremendous plan,
and in light of the City Council meeting on June 22, Mr.
Hagan may be better served if the Commission were to table
the plat, and then bring it back after the Council acts on the
thoroughfare issue.
Mr. Bowen asked if it were appropriate to consider taller
fences on the south and west sides of the property.
Mr. Collins stated that those issues can be addressed when
Mr. Hagan comes back with a new plat, but that he would like
to see at least a six foot fence because of the park to the
west and the vacant acreage to the south.
Mr. Hagan stated that it would not be problem, and would
appreciate any items like that so he can go ahead and
incorporate them in the plat.
Mr. LeBaron stated that if Newman Drive becomes a
residential street, it should resolve some of the lot frontage
problems.
Mr. Barfield stated that he would like to see more thought on
designing the corner lots, where the building line was moved
back to get the 65 foot width, so that the Board of
Adjustment doesn't have quite as many cases of people
coming before them to modify their lots.
Mr. Hagan stated that a different type of layout and design
would help that problem.
Ms. Marin made the motion to table PS 92-11 until the June
25th Commission meeting. The motion was seconded by Mr.
Collins, and the motion carried 7-0.
STAFF REPORT
Mr. LeBaron asked that the Commission continue to look
through the revisions to the proposed Zoning Ordinance, and
that at the next workshop they can continue going through
the changes.
CITIZEN COMMENTS
None.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
