PZ 80-23 APPROVED Request of John W. Barfield to rezone portions of Tract 3A, Brentwood Estates, from its present classification of Agriculture to a proposed classification of Local Retail. This property is located on the west side of Precinct Line Road just south of Shady Grove Baptist church. Mr. Doug Long, Consulting Engineer, represented Mr. Barfield in his requests. He presented the Commission and the audience with copies of the layout of the property showing where the Single Family, Commercial, and Local Retail would be. Mr. Long said the proposed road was dedicated to the city about 5 years ago to meet the city1s Master Plan. He said this road would coincide with a street in Colleyville. Mr. Long stated that the new Shady Grove Road would not go all the way to Precinct Line Rd. as Precinct Line Rd. makes a slight turn. Mr. Long stated that Mr. Barfield owns some land to the north of the intersection of Davis Blvd. and Shady Grove Road. Mr. Long stated that the city has already laid water lines along Shady Grove Road and that the city has a new water tank on Bursey Road and has acquired land to build another tank just to the north of this property in question. He showed, on the map, where the new tank is located and where the other tank will be built. Mr. Greenfield asked what kind of Local Retail Mr. Barfield plans to have. Mr. Long said that Mr. Barfield has no plans at present for the Local Retail or the Commercial; this is just a Master Plan, but he does plan to develop the single family. He said that if the Local Retail didn1t work out, they could get 4 single family lots on it. Mr. Barfield said that the church might want to purchase it later. . . . Page 3 P & Z Minutes June 26, 1980 Mr. Knowles asked Mr. Long to explain about Shady Grove Road-would it be left open when this new street is put in. Mr. Long stated it would, but that this new street would be a wide collector street. He said that Precinct Line Road turns away from this property, but there is only 30 or 40 feet to Precinct Line Road. Mr. Barfield stated he would not mind putting in the rest of the street to join Precinct Line Road if the R.O.W. was provided, but that he does not own the land that is needed. Mr. Greenfield asked Mr. Barfield which area he would develop first. Mr. Barfield said it would be the area nearest to the sewer. Mr. Greenfield asked how far north did the sewer line run. Mr. Long showed the area on the map. Mr. Barfield stated the Director of Utilities, Allen Bronstad, was working to get the sewer up there, and Mr. Barfield said he wasn1t sure, but thought that they lacked 2000 or 3000 feet. The Chairman asked if there was anyone who wished to speak on these requests. Coleman Archer, 8157 Precinct Line Road, came forward. He asked if there were any plans for widening Precinct Line Road. Mr. Eckhardt said they were working on it, but he wasn1t sure how far the widening would go. Mr. Knowles said he thought it would only go as far as Amundson Road. Billy M. Housewright came forward. He asked what plans there were for widening David Blvd. Mrs. Calvert said that Davis Blvd. is a State Highway and the plans are to widen it to Emerald Hills Way, but hopefully, they will widen it further out later. ~ Page 4 P & Z Minutes June 26, 1980 . Mr. Housewright said there sure would be a lot of lots in this plan. Mr. Barfield stated he would not develop all this property at once. He said it might take him 8 years to develop it all. Mrs. Ella Allison, 8209 Precinct Line Road, asked if there would be any restrictions put on the Local Retail zoning. Mrs. Shaunty asked her what she had in mind. Mrs. Allison said such things as burglar alarm systems or liquor. Mrs. Calvert explained that an establishment to sell alcoholic beverages for on-premise consumption or off-premise consumption could not be that close to a church, but even if they could, they would have to come before the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council for a Specific Use zoning. . Mrs. Calvert said that as far as the buralar alarm, the city does not require a business to have one. Mrs. Allison said she didn1t want them to have one-the business directly across the street has one and it runs all night long. Mr. Eckhardt asked if there was something wrong with it or what. Mrs. Allison said there was. Mr. Eckhardt asked Mrs. Allison if she had called the business or the City of Colleyville about it. Mrs. Allison said she had, but had not been able to get anyone to do anything about it. Mr. Eckhardt said he would see if he could get something done about it. Mr. Archer asked about the size of the water and sewer lines. He said they have poor water pressure now and no sewer. . . . . ~ Page 5 P & Z Minutes June 26, 1980 Mr. Barfield said there would be a 1511 sewer line and a 1611 water line. He stated this was the reason he hadn1t developed this property before now-no water and sewer. Mr. Long showed Mr. Archer where he thinks the sewer would come from. Mr. Knowles asked if the water line would come down Davis Blvd. and across to this area. Mr. Long stated there would be no problem with the water. He said with the TRA water and two storage tanks. Jed Bell, 8169 Precinct Line Road, said they have a little problem of property. He told Mr. Barfield that the surveyors came down his fence line, but that his fence sets 4 feet inside his property line. Mr. Bell also said he wanted to know what North Richland Hills had ever done for them. He said they have no fire plugs, no water, and no police protection. Mr. Barfield said that with this added development, there would be water, sewer, fire plugs, and police protection. Johnny Hurst, Richland Hills Riding Club, stated they were very much in favor of the development. Mrs. Calvert stated that Rev. Kerry Niles, Pastor of Shady Grove Baptist church, called her and said they all he and his members were worried about was if a liquor store or some- thing of that nature would be put near the church. She said she explained to him that a place selling alcholic beverages could not be within 300 feet of a church and also they would have to have a Specific Use zoning. The Chairman asked if there was anyone else who wished to speak. There being no one, the Chairman closed the ~ublic Hearing. Page 6 P & Z r·1i nutes June 26, 1980 . Mrs. Shaunty asked Mr. Barfield what the minimum square footage of the houses would be. Mr. Barfield said he usually builds 1500 and 1600 sq. ft. houses, but none smaller than 1400 sq. ft. Mr. Eckhardt moved, seconded by Mr. Knowles, to approve PZ 80-21 as requested. Motion carried 4-0 with Mrs. Nash abstaining.

Mrs. Archer asked if she could ask another question. She asked if fireworks were going to be allowed next to them this year. She said they always have them on the property behind 9-acres country club which is called IINo Manis Landll. Mrs. Archer said it was so easy to have grass fires. Mrs. Archer said she has been told that this property is owned by Charlie Davidson, but no city w'ill claim it. She said every year they have this problem. Mr. Eckhardt asked if she had called the city about this. Mrs. Archer said she had and was told that a permit had been issued, but they could not tell who it was issued to. Mr. Eckhardt suggested that since this property is not in any city, it would fall under the county·s jurisdiction, and she should call Lynn Gregory, County Commissioner.
