Addition from its present classification of IF-9
to IF-9 S.U.-Day Nursery located at 7100 Smithfield
Road. Mr. Gross stated Mrs. Bradley is licensed
with the State of Texas to keep 6 children in her
home with 6 others part time. Due to the Ordinance
of the City of North Richland Hills, the Bradleys
need a change of Zoning. All requirements have
been made. The fire dept. has checked them. Very
few people are qualified by the State of Texas.
Mr. Gross stated this was a Christian home and
he believed it would be a good environment for
children. Mr. Grubb corrected the plat being
Smithfield Road instead of Keller Road.
Mr. O. D. Long representing 0 & B Properties asked
where the property was located and asked if there
would be a parking lot built. Mr. Gross stated
there would be nothing changed. Mr. Grubb asked
if there would be adequate offstreet parking.
Mr. Bradley stated their garage is in back of lot,
giving plenty of room for parking. Mr. Grubb moved,
seconded by Mr. Morrison to approve. Motion
carried 4-0.
Mr. O. D. Long represented John L. Dreiling to
rezone 3.49 acres of land out of the T.K. Martin
Survey from its present classification of Agri-
culture to a proposed classification of IF-9-17-
One Family Dwelling. The property is located
East of Chilton Drive and North of Paula Court in
Glenann Addition. Mr. Long stated this was the
same proposal as last month with the exception
of Mr. Simmon's property. Since Mr. Simmons with-
drew his property, we have tried not to cut the
area off for future possibilities. Mr. James
Simmons asked to see the plat. He stated he was
not against the plat, but wanted to see the plat
without his property. Mr. Long stated he changed
the Zoning Request from IF-9-15 to IF-9-17 so the
houses in the area would be larger. Mr. Waldrop
moved, seconded by Mr. Morrison to approve. Motion
carried 4-0.
Mr. Long again represented Mr. John L. Dreiling for
preliminary plat of Royal Oaks Addition. Mr. Morris
Faulk, 6612 Chilton asked who would be responsible
for drainange. He stated lots 1 & 2 looked rather
small for 1700 foot homes. Could you put a partial
cul de sac and give them more acreage? Mr. Long
stated they could not move the street any further.
Mr. Faulk further stated the property owners across
the street were concerned about the water running
down hill & into their driveway. Mr. Long stated
there would be less water than he has now. Mr.
Grubb moved, seconded by Mr. Waldrop to approve.
Motion carried 4-0.

Mr. Steve Cavender of Colong Homes presented
their request for preliminary plat of Wincrest
Addition. Mr. Cavender was given a copy of the
Engineer's letter that was received too late to
mail. He stated he had been trying to get the
preliminary plat since May. Mr. Grubb suggested
the Board approve subject to Engineer's letter.
Mr. Cavender agreed. Mr. Grubb moved, Mr. Waldrop
seconded for approval subject to Engineer's letter.
Motion carried 4-0.
David Hughes, 1004 W. Euless Blvd., Euless, Texas
presented the request of B.J. Reeves (Reeves
Royal Homes) for final plat of North Richland
Estates, Phase I. Mr. Hughes stated there were
two owners of the property-Mr. Harry Hansen &
Reeves Royal Homes. There is 25.925 acres, 76
lots, 9600 square feet, with minimum size homes
of 1500 square feet. Mr. Hanson owns lot 23,
which is less than an acre. Reeves Royal Homes
owns the rest. Mr. Hughes stated they were aware
of the Engineer's letter. No. 1 & 5 pretain-
ing to his pro-rata share they agreed with. No. 2,3,4,
7,9, & 10 was just an oversight on their part.
These will be taken care of. No.6 & 8 pertaining
to easement, we are working with Foster Fin. Corp.
He stated they will make a temporary drainage
until Foster Village fixes theirs. Mr. Grubb
moved, seconded by Mr. Morrison to approve
subject to Engineer's letter. Motion carried 4-0.
Mr. Bob Butler represented Hudìburg Chevy City
for preliminary and final plats of Lots 2,3, & 4,
Block 1, Hudiburg Addition. Mr. Grubb asked if
he was aware of the Engineer's letter. Mr.
Hudiburg stated the City was notified by their land
developer of their plans. No.4 in the letter was
wrong. We only have a roof across the easement.
It is a service entrance. No.5-we have no controll
over the Exxon property. Mr. Hudiburg stated there
was already a 6 inch line. This was the requirements
when they first built the building. Mr. David
Farrington stated that most of the comments of the
letter were about the existing building. He asked
if they could plat only the undeveloped portion of
property. Mr. Britton stated it all had to be
platted. Mr. Hudiburg stated when the old building
was built in 1967, all requirements were applied for,
met, and paid for. We do not feel we should have
to go back & run 8 inch lines for water to go nowhere.
This 8 inch line would cost us $10,000. We just
put in 8 inch line on Davis Blvd. He stated he did
not think the Engineer was aware of this plat. He

said he did not mind paying for what was right
in the new facility. Mr. Britton stated Mr.
Hudiburg could take No. 1 & 5 before the City
Council to try to get them waived. Mr. Waldrop
asked Mr. Britton why was a 6 inch line put in
in the first place. Mr. Britton stated it was
put in before North Richland Hills owned the
water. Mr. Hudiburg agreed to No.9 per Allen
BronstadJs letter. Mr. Hudiburg stated No.2
he was in agreement with; No.3-got permit; No. 4-
not a problem; No.1 & 5-will have to be taken
to City Council since both will cost $16,000;
No.6-OK; No.7-was shown; No.8-don't have a
copy of Highway plans, but will not change drainage;
No.9-should pay tap for 6 inch line. Mr. Grubb
moved, Mr. Waldrop seconded to approve subject
to Engineer's letter. Motion carried 4-0.

Robert Legge presented his request to the Board
regarding his plans to develop Coventry Place
Estates Retirement Village. This tract of land
was zoned in 1972. It is located at the corner
of Starnes Road, Smithfield-Keller Road, Crest-
wood to the East, Colony Homes to Northwest. It
was previously zoned IF-9 for 105 residential lots,
4.8 acres commercial, and 1.5 Local Retail.
Mr. Legge presented a discussion of his plans to
develope Coventry Place Estates Retirement Village.
He stated he felt this area needed this to
accomodate the 50-60 year olds who are semi-re-
tired. This will be for people who are not ill.
Will only accept those who are mobile. This
facility will have Dormatories, places to eat,
beauty shop, church, doctors, pharmacy, etc.
Then they plan to build duplexes around the main
facility. These can be bought or rented. Most
places of this nature have a 3 year waiting period.
If the people want to go out to shop or to church,
etc., there will be transportation available. Mr.
Legge stated this development would serve a 3 fold
purpose; 1. Will help in problem land, 2. will
provide employment for North Richland Hills, and
3. it will provide homes for the elderly. Mary Jo
Shaunty stated she feels there is a great need for
this type of facility. Mr. Waldrop asked if they
had a plan to take care of the residents yards.
Mr. Legge stated that would also be available to
the residents. Mr. Morrison asked if there would
be any kind of security. Mr. Legge stated there
would be off-duty policemen to provide security.
Mr. Britton asked Mr. Legge if they planned to
build Starnes Road. He stated he would and the
other streets would be private streets. Mr. Britton
stated th·is would have to be zoned Planned Development.

two duplexes on a single platted lot. You would

period. Mr. Morrison moved, Mr. Waldrop seconded
to go in favor with Planned Development of this
