SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE, UH, PUBLIC AGENDA, UH, ITEMS, CONSENT AGENDA ITEMS ONE THROUGH FOUR BY COMMISSIONER JULIA PEREZ AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER JOHN FKO, ALL ONE THROUGH FIVE.

ALL IN FAVOR,

[00:05:01]

PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

[6. TAM-24-04-0004 - Text Amendment - Article 4: Permissible Uses.

NEXT ITEM PLEASE.

MADAM CHAIR, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE TABLE ITEM SIX, TEXT AMENDMENT, ARTICLE FOUR.

SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO TABLE ITEM SIX BY COMMISSIONER JULIA PEREZ AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER FEDCO.

GOOD EVENING, COMMISSIONERS.

ITEM PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

NEXT CASE PLEASE.

[7. STP-24-04-0016 - Site Plan - Topgolf Grand Prairie (City Council District 2). Site Plan for an Amusement Services (Indoor) and Amusement Services (Outdoor) facility on 11.199 acres. A portion of Tract 2.2, William Reed Survey, Abstract No. 1193, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned PD-436, within the SH 161 Corridor Overlay District, and approximately addressed as 1015 Ikea Place]

GOOD EVENING.

THIS IS AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SEVEN.

THIS IS A SITE PLAN REQUEST FOR TOPGOLF LOCATED AT 10 15 IKEA PLACE.

THIS IS A SITE PLAN FOR AMUSEMENT SERVICES, INDOOR AND OUTDOOR, WHICH AGAIN IS ALLOWED BY WRIGHT PER PD 4 36.

SO THIS, UH, SITE IS 11.19 ACRES AND IT IS WITHIN OUR CORRIDOR OVERLAY DISTRICT.

SO IT IS A TRIGGERING THOSE APPENDIX F REQUIREMENTS.

SO AGAIN, THIS IS THE SITE PLAN.

TYPICAL TOPGOLF, IT'S GOT THE GOLF DRIVING RANGE, FULL SERVICE RESTAURANT, INDOOR PUTTING.

SO THEY ARE A MEETING.

MOST OF OUR REQUIREMENTS EXCEPT FOR THEY'RE REQUESTING TWO VARIANCES FOR THE SETBACKS AND ONE VARIANCE FOR THE PARKING, WHICH I'LL COVER IN A LITTLE BIT.

THIS IS THEIR LANDSCAPE PLAN.

THEY'RE MEETING EXCEEDING ALL OF OUR APPENDIX F AND ARTICLE EIGHT REQUIREMENTS.

AGAIN, THESE ARE THE ELEVATIONS THAT SOUTHERN ELEVATION IS THEIR PRIMARY FACADE AND THE WEST AND THE EAST.

THE NORTHERN ELEVATION, AGAIN, IS THAT INTERIOR AREA THAT THAT FACES OUT ONTO THE DRIVING RANGE.

AGAIN, THE APPLICANT DID PROVIDE US WITH SOME 3D RENDERING SO YOU CAN GET AN IDEA OF WHAT THE ENTRANCE IS GONNA LOOK LIKE.

AND TO THE LEFT, AGAIN, THERE'S THAT PATIO AREA.

AGAIN, ANOTHER RENDERING.

THE APPLICANT'S ALSO PROVIDED US WITH PHOTOS OF EXISTING TOP GOLF.

SO WE CAN KINDA KIND OF GET AN IDEA OF WHAT OURS IS GONNA LOOK LIKE.

AGAIN, OURS WILL HAVE THE METAL LOUVER WITH THE ILLUMINATED LIGHTING THERE.

AND THIS, UM, THE ARTICULATION AND THE SIGNS ARE ALL GONNA BE VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE WILL HAVE IN GRAND PRAIRIE.

AND THEN HERE IS, UH, KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE TOP GOLF.

AND SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE A SIMILAR PATIO AREA AS WELL.

SO THEY ARE WITHIN THAT QUARTER OVERLAY.

SO THEY ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE 12 MENU ITEMS FOR APPENDIX F MENU LIST.

AND THEY'RE PROVIDING 12.5.

SO AGAIN, THEY'RE REQUESTING SIX VARIANCES OF THE FIRST TWO ARE TO THE SETBACK.

SO FRONT SETBACK THAT IS REQUIRED IS 25.

THEY'RE REQUESTING TO REDUCE THAT DOWN TO 10.

SAME THING WITH THE SIDE SETBACK.

IT'S AT 25.

THEY'RE REQUESTING TO REDUCE IT DOWN TO 10.

AGAIN, THIS IS AN EXISTING SITE WITH THE EXISTING SODIUM IN PLACE.

SO THEY'RE TRYING TO MAKE THEIR PRODUCTS FIT, WHICH IS WHY THOSE VARIANCES ARE BEING REQUESTED.

AS FAR AS THE FACADES, THEY HAVE THREE VARIANCES.

SO TWO OR FOR GLAZING, ONE IS FOR THE OVERALL BUILDING.

SO AGAIN, ALL THE FACADES AT LEAST, UH, 50% OF THE LENGTH OF ALL THE FACADE SHOULD BE GLAZING.

THEY'RE REQUESTING TO REDUCE THAT DOWN TO 47.2.

AND FOR THE PRIMARY FACADE, AT LEAST 30% OF THE OVERALL AREA SHOULD BE GLAZING.

THEY'RE REQUESTING TO REDUCE THAT DOWN TO 27.

AND AGAIN, THE CANOPY, SO THE 25% OF LENGTH OF ALL THE FACADE SHOULD BE CANOPIES REQUESTING TO REDUCE THAT DOWN TO 24.1.

AND THE LAST VARIANCE IS FOR THE PARKING AS, AS COMMISSIONER COCO MENTIONED.

SO PARKING MA OR PARKING MINIMUMS ACT AS PARKING MAXIMUMS IN OUR OVERLAY DISTRICTS.

AND SO IF YOU EXCEED THAT, THEN HALF OF WHATEVER YOU EXCEED EITHER HAS TO BE PERAL PARKING OR COMPACT PARKING.

THEY ARE PROVIDING US WITH THAT COMP PARKING.

SO THEY'RE REQUESTING TO INCREASE THEIR PARKING SPACES FROM 2 98 TO 3 41.

SO AGAIN, TOPGOLF WORKS PRETTY HARD TO REDUCE THOSE VARIANCES AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

SO STAFF'S PRETTY COMFORTABLE WITH WHAT THEY'RE REQUESTING.

UM, AND SO THE DRC DOES RECOMMEND APPROVAL.

AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS.

COMMISSIONERS, WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK YOU DID A VERY GOOD PRESENTATION, UM, AND THE BRIEFING.

AND IS THE APPLICANT HERE? THEY ARE, YES.

WE HAVE THE SPEAKER CARDS.

THANK YOU, BRITTANY.

WE HAVE A SPEAKER CARD FROM SCOTT WETTERLING WHO IS REPRESENTATIVE OF TOPGOLF AND AVAILABLE TO SPEAK ONLY IF QUESTIONS ARE NEEDED.

WE DO HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS.

IT IS JUST THAT, YOU KNOW, DOING YARD WORK AND YOU ROLL YOUR ANKLE ON A ROOT AND TRY TO TELL MY WIFE I NO LONGER HAVE TO DO YARD WORK.

BUT , THAT DIDN'T GO OVER VERY WELL, SO I'M SO SORRY.

LET YOU STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

UH, SCOTT WETTING.

I'M DIRECTOR OF REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT FOR TOP OFF.

THE FIRST QUESTION I HAVE IS, DO YOU HAVE WHO, WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE CLOSE IN THE SURROUNDING AREA? ANOTHER A TOPGOLF, DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER ONE CLOSE TO US? SURE.

WE HAVE, UM, IN THE DFW METROPLEX, WE HAVE FOUR OTHER TOPGOLF.

SO WE HAVE A TOPGOLF IN TOPGOLF, DALLAS, TOPGOLF, ALLEN TOPGOLF, THE COLONY, AND TOPGOLF FORT WORTH.

THIS BUILDING INTO THE WIDTH OF THE PROPERTY.

AND SO WHEN YOU'RE, YOU'RE, YOU'RE, UH, THE ASKING FOR THE VARIANCES YOU'RE TRYING TO FIT IN BASED ON YOUR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN, WHICH I'M ASSUMING IS THE SAME TEMPLATE YOU USE FOR EACH LOCATION.

UM, YEAH.

SO THIS, WE HAVE, WE HAVE DIFFERENT PROTOTYPES FOR DIFFERENT SIZED MARKETS.

MM-HMM.

AND THEN THIS IS SOME OF THE OTHER PROTOTYPES THAT YOU SEE IN SOME OF THE OTHER MUNICIPALITIES AROUND HERE, SOME OF THE OLDER DESIGNS.

SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, WE'VE IMPROVED AND THEN CREATED NEW ONE SINCE THEN.

AND YEAH, SO BASICALLY THE WIDTH OF THE BUILDING IS THAT'S WHAT THE VARIS ARE ASKING FOR TO TRY TO FIT

[00:10:01]

I, I SAID, WELL, MY MAIN CONCERN WITH SAFETY, AS LONG AS IT'S SAFE, YOU KNOW THAT IT'S NOT A SAFETY.

YEAH, A HUNDRED PERCENT.

THAT IS DEFINITELY OUR PRIMARY FOCUS FOR SURE.

RIGHT.

COMMISSIONERS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN.

HI SCOTT.

SORRY ABOUT THE INJURY.

UM, WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT HOW MANY EMPLOYEES ARE YOU BRINGING INTO THIS FACILITY? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BE HIRING THE END? SO A VENUE, THIS SIDE WILL PROBABLY HAVE ABOUT 250 EMPLOYEES.

THAT'D BE GREAT.

SO IS THIS ABOUT THE SIZE? I VISITED THE ONE OFF, UH, 75 IN THAT AREA.

IS THAT THE DALLAS LOCATION? YEAH, THAT'S, UH, THE ONE OFF 75 WOULD BE THE TOP GOLF ALLEN LOCATION.

SO, OKAY, SO MAYBE, NO, THIS ONE IS IN DALLAS.

OH.

OH, THAT'S THE TOP DALLAS PARK LANE LOCATION.

CLOSER LANE PARK LANE, YES.

SO IT'S IN COMPARISON, IS IT ALLEN OR IS IT DALLAS? SO IT'S ALMOST A TRICK QUESTION.

I'M SORRY.

THE ONLY REASON I SAY THAT IS, UH, TOPGOLF ALLEN IS A THREE STORY VENUE, AND TOPGOLF DALLAS IS TWO STORIES.

THE ONE THAT WE'RE PROPOSING HERE IS TWO STORIES, BUT IT'S WIDER AND NICER THAN THE ONE IN TOPGOLF DALLAS, BUT IT'S, UH, 40 BAYS WIDE.

AND THEN TWO STORIES TALL, SO IT'D BE 80 TOTAL.

SOUNDS GREAT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

COMMISSIONER MADDEN.

HI.

I JUST HAVE TWO QUESTIONS OF CURIOSITY ACTUALLY.

SO IS IT STANDARD TO DO THE TWO LEVELS, OR I'M JUST CURIOUS AS TO WHAT PLAYED INTO THE DECISION.

ABSOLUTELY.

UH, THE, THE SIDES OF THE, THE SIDES OF THE VENUE AND THE AMOUNT OF STORIES ARE REALLY PREDOMINANTLY FOCUSED ON HOW MANY BAYS THAT WE TYPICALLY TRY TO BRING TO AN AREA.

UHHUH AND THE BAY ARE FOCUSED PREDOMINANTLY ON THE SURROUNDING POPULATION DENSITY OF THE MARKET THAT WE'RE TRYING TO TARGET.

SO, UM, IF A LARGER VENUE WOULD HAVE 102 BAYS, AND IF YOU TRY TO FIT 102 ACROSS TWO FLORIDA, IT JUST, THE BUILDING JUST GETS SO ASTRONOMICALLY WIDE THAT IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

SO IT'S SPLIT BETWEEN THREE FLOORS, BUT THIS ONE WE'RE TRYING TO TARGET 72 TO 80 BAYS.

SO WE WE'RE FOCUSING ON 80 BAYS.

AND THIS, THIS IS A PROTOTYPE FOR 80 BAYS, SO WE HAVE SIMILAR MARKETS THAT HAVE THIS SIZE PROTOTYPE.

UH, OMAHA, OMAHA, NEBRASKA WOULD BE ONE, OR, UM, LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS WOULD BE ONE.

SO WE HAVE SOMEWHERE IN MARKET THAT HAVE THE SAME BUILDING PROTOTYPE.

AND I HAD ANOTHER QUESTION, UM, WITH REGARD TO THE OUTSIDE SEATING AREA ON THE WEST SIDE.

IS THERE ARE, ARE THERE ANY SHADES THAT ARE BUILT IN? BECAUSE I'M THINKING, GOSH, IF I WERE DESIGNING IT, I'D FLIP IT AND PUT THAT ON THE EAST BECAUSE THOSE EVENING SUN IS GONNA BE A KILLER ON THAT SIDE.

UH, I HAVE TO LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN, BUT BASICALLY WE, WE TRY TO ORIENTATE THE OUTDOOR SEATING, I GUESS BACKYARD BY PIPE MARKET TO WHERE WE THINK MOST OF OUR GUESTS WOULD ENTER.

AND AS LONG, AND WE ALSO DON'T WANT TO FACING, LIKE, SOMETIMES WE DON'T WANT TO FACE A MAJOR HIGHWAY BECAUSE OF SOUND AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE, BUT IT REALLY DEPENDS ON WHERE WE THINK THE MAJORITY OF THE TRAFFIC GONNA COME IN.

SO THERE WAS A, A SCIENCE TO WHY WE CHOSE IT, THAT ORIENTATION.

I SEE.

YEAH, I THINK IT'S DOING BOTH.

I THINK IT'S GREETING THE MAIN TRAFFIC, BUT IT'S ALSO FACING THE HIGHWAY, SO YOU PROBABLY JUST, JUST HAD TO PICK THE ONE.

SO THAT'LL BE THE RATIONALE BEHIND THAT.

YEAH, THEY, I'M SORRY, THEY, I'M GETTING MY EAST AND WEST BEARINGS MIXED UP.

SO THE MAINTENANCE SHOP IS ON THE OTHER SIDE.

SO THAT'S WHERE WE HAVE OUR FOOD DELIVERED AND OUR EQUIPMENT DELIVERED.

OH, YEAH.

MORE BACKUP.

SO WE WANNA TRY TO KEEP THAT AWAY OUTTA MIND AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

SURE.

OH, THAT MAKES GOOD SENSE.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

YEP.

COMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? WERE YOU GONNA SAY SOMETHING, RASHAD? I WAS JUST GONNA ADD THAT THERE COULD BE AN OPTION AFTER THE FACT TO PUT SOME, LIKE A PERGOLA STRUCTURE OR SOMETHING ON TOP.

I KNOW THAT THAT ISN'T YOUR STANDARD AS PART OF YOUR, UM, STANDARD BUILDING AND WHAT Y'ALL DO IN YOUR DESIGN, BUT TO MS. MADDEN'S POINT, IT WILL BE LIKELY HOT RIGHT THERE.

, I JUST, AND, AND THERE'S ALSO HIGHWAY 1 61 THAT, SO WE HAVE TOOK A, UM, THE OUTDOOR AREA AND THE COVERED STRUCTURE WITH LIKE A PATIO ABOVE IT, SO IT DOES HAVE A COVERED AREA.

AND THEN WE DO HAVE OUTDOOR UMBRELLAS AS WELL.

THAT WE TYPICALLY PUT IN THERE AS, UH, THE, YOU KNOW, TECH FROM THE TEXAS SUN THAT WE ALL KNOW.

THAT GETS PRETTY BRUTAL IN THE SUMMER.

I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE SECOND STORY, BUT IT, IT, IF IT WORKS, IT WORKS.

I THINK Y'ALL ARE GONNA HAVE PEOPLE HERE EITHER WAY.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.

WE DEFINITELY HAVE A LOT OF UMBRELLAS OUT THERE ON THE SUNRISE.

I PROMISE YOU.

YOU HAVE A QUESTION? YOU HAVE A QUESTION.

COMMISSIONER PEREZ.

SO YOU'RE LOOKING AT ABOUT 250 EMPLOYEES ABOUT WHAT ARE YOUR HOURS FOR THE, FOR THE OPERATION, FOR PROVISIONS, OPERATION HOURS, UHHUH ? UM, TYPICALLY WE DO 10 TO MIDNIGHT, UH, SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, AND THEN 10 TO 1:00 AM ON FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS.

THE PROTOTYPICAL HOUR STRUCTURE THAT WE HAVE.

I'D HAVE TO DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE, WE TRY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DOING THE SAME OPERATING HOUR OF THE SURROUNDING VENUES.

SO I DON'T WANT TO DOUBLE CHECK THAT, BUT THAT'S PRETTY STANDARD.

WHEN THOSE THREE DIGITS START TO HIT, IT'S GONNA BE UNCOMFORTABLE FOR EVERYONE.

WELL, THANK YOU FOR THINKING OF GRAND PRAIRIE.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.

WE'RE EXCITED.

I THINK WHAT COMMISSIONER MAG WAS TRYING TO SAY IS THAT WE GET THREE DIGITS A LOT SUMMER, SO

[00:15:01]

SO I, I, I LIVE UP IN LEWISVILLE, SO I AM FULLY AWARE OF WHAT WE GOTTA DEAL WITH HERE.

SO.

WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING AND I DO APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING YOU COME.

NO, IT'S NO PROBLEM.

I'M HOPING TOMORROW I CAN GET OFF THE CRUTCHES AND PUT A BOOT ON, BUT WE'LL SAY IT.

THANK YOU FOR COMING TO GRAND PRAIRIE.

THANK YOU FOR THANK YOU FOR HAVING US.

ANY, UH, ANY MORE SPEAKER CARDS? NO MORE ON THIS ITEM.

ANY MORE DISCUSSION? COMMISSIONERS? CAN I GET A MOTION? COMMISSIONER MADDEN? I THINK THAT'S YOU.

ALRIGHT.

UM, I AM MOVED THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON STP 24 DASH ZERO FOUR DASH 0 0 1 6.

THE SITE PLAN FOR TOPGOLF GRAND PRAIRIE AND APPROVE PER DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

SECOND.

I HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEM SEVEN BY COMMISSIONER MADDEN, A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN.

ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? I THINK YOU DID A REALLY GOOD JOB IN, IN, UM, BRIEFING.

IS THE APPLICANT HERE? YES.

YES MA'AM.

AND THE ONLY SPEAKER ON THE CASE? ARMANDO GARCIA.

MR. GARCIA, THANK YOU YOU FOR COMING AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

GOOD EVENING.

ARMAND GARCIA 1 0 3 NORTH GREENSTONE LANE, DUNCANVILLE, TEXAS.

UM, WE'RE SUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS, UM, PROJECT, UM, HERE AT, AT A REALLY AREA THAT WE THINK, UM, NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF HELP IN THAT, IN THAT CORNER ON GREAT SOUTHWESTERN PIONEER.

WE WANNA MAKE THAT CORNER REALLY STAND OUT AND KIND OF HAVE A NICE LITTLE MEANDERING SIDEWALK THROUGH THERE WITH NICE, UM, SHRUBBERY BUSHES.

AND THEN PROVIDE THE COMMUNITY WITH, UM, A GREAT SERVICE FOR GETTING CLEAN CARS, SANITIZED CARS.

UM, UM, WE'RE PROBABLY GONNA BE EMPLOYING AROUND 30 PEOPLE TOTAL ABOUT EIGHT PEOPLE PER SHIFT.

UM, OUR HOURS ARE PROBABLY GONNA BE SEVEN IN THE MORNING TILL 8:00 PM.

UM, ALL THE CHEMICALS WE USE ARE ALL WATER BASED AND NOT, LIKE BEFORE A LOT OF THE TIRE SHINE USED TO ALL BE OIL BASED, SO IT WAS REALLY BAD FOR, FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

BUT WE'VE, WE'VE BEEN USING A LOT OF WATER BASED STUFF NOW, SO THAT'S A HUNDRED PERCENT.

UM, WE'RE VERY CONSCIOUS OF THAT AND, AND WE'RE JUST REALLY EXCITED TO, FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO, TO BECOME MEMBERS OF THE, OF THE COMMUNITY HERE.

AND, UM, UM, I THINK THAT PRETTY MUCH SUMS IT UP.

IF, IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS.

UM, WELL, MY FIRST QUESTION IS, THANK YOU FOR COMING IN.

IT SOUNDS LIKE A COUNTRY CLUB TO ME, .

IT SOUNDS REALLY, REALLY NICE, BUT HOW EXPENSIVE IS THIS CAR WASH GONNA BE? UM, IT'S PROBABLY GONNA BE AROUND MAYBE LIKE ONE AND A HALF MILLION.

I MEAN, AS FAR AS NO, FOR FOR ME, FOR CUSTOMERS.

OH, FOR, OH, YOU MEAN LIKE A, LIKE YEAH, I THINK HE PUT THE, THE, THE MENU UP THERE HAD THE PRICES.

IT JUST, IT, IT HAVE, WE HAVE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF, OF SERVICE.

UM, IT JUST DEPENDS, I THINK.

SO YOU'LL BE COMPETITIVE.

SO THEY STARTED AT $6? YES.

BASIC WASHINGTON? YES MA'AM.

COMMISSIONERS, DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? UH, DO YOU HAVE, IS THIS YOUR FIRST, UH, OPERATION? UM, YES.

WITH THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT? YES, MA'AM.

[00:20:01]

SO YOU, ARE YOU MODELING BY ANYONE ELSE OR YOU JUST DECIDED, YOU JUST DESIGNED YOUR OWN AND SAID, THIS IS WHAT I'M GONNA DO? YEAH.

HAVE YOU TALKED TO ANYBODY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, IN A COMMUNITY SURROUNDING COMMUNITY? WELL, WE'VE, A COUPLE OF THE NEIGHBORS HAVE BEEN BY AND WE'RE CURIOUS WHEN WE'RE PUTTING UP SIGNS AND WE'RE JUST KIND OF CURIOUS WHAT WAS GOING ON.

SO WE EXPLAINED TO THEM.

BUT, UM, AS FAR AS ANYTHING OTHER THAN THAT, NO, NO HOAS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT? UH, NO MA'AM.

COMMISSIONER FOR DARCO.

MADAM CHAIR.

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE DISCUSSION ON ITEM NUMBER EIGHT STP DASH 24.

WAIT, WAIT TILL, MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS.

OH, NO, I'M, NO, I'M SORRY.

COMM COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN? YES.

I A MR. YES, NO WORRIES.

MR. GARCIA, ARE YOU THE OWNER? NO, I'M THE ARCHITECT.

THE DESIGNER FOR THE, THE OWNER'S TEAM IS HERE WITH ME, BUT, UM, I'M, I'M HERE.

I'M SPEAKING ON THEIR BEHALF.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THAT'S GREAT.

AND, UH, ONE LAST QUESTION I HAD FOR YOU WAS, YOU MENTIONED THE CHEMICALS AND HOW ARE THEY BEING DISSOLVED? IS THERE UNDERWATER STORAGE TANKS? WHAT DO YOU DO? YES, THERE'S LIKE AN OIL SAND SEPARATOR THAT GOES INTO THE FIRST TANK AND THEN THEY GO THROUGH LIKE THREE OTHER TANKS THAT KIND OF FILTER EVERYTHING AND THEN, UM, RELEASES EVERYTHING BACK.

EVERYTHING KIND OF, THE WATER GETS RECLAIMED AND, AND REUSED, BUT IT GETS FILTERED THROUGH LIKE FOUR SEPARATE TANKS.

I THINK THERE'S NO MORE QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

UH, NO MORE SPEAKER CARDS ON THAT.

ANY MORE DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? COMMISSIONER FEDCO? ANY MOTION? THANK, THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR.

MADAM CHAIR.

I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC DISCUSSION ON ITEM EIGHT STP DASH 24 DASH ZERO TWO DASH ZERO NINE AND APPROVE.

SECOND, HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEM EIGHT BY COMMISSIONER FEDCO AND A SECOND BY MS. COMMISSIONER COCO.

[Items 9 & 10]

NEXT CASE IS ITEM, UH, ITEMS NINE AND 10.

THEY'RE COMPANION ITEMS, SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND PRESENT BOTH CASES TOGETHER.

UH, STARTING WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR 10 50 NORTH HIGHWAY 1 61.

THE CURRENT FUTURE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATION FOR THIS AREA IS COMMERCIAL RETAIL SLASH OFFICE.

UH, THE PROPOSED A AMENDMENT TO AMEND THE AREA TO THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP IS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL TO ALIGN WITH THE PROPOSED ZONING REQUEST, AND I'LL GET INTO THAT IN MORE DETAIL HERE SHORTLY.

EXISTING ZONING IS MULTIFAMILY ONE AND THE REQUESTED ZONING IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT WITH SINGLE FAMILY TOWNHOUSE AS THEIR BASE ZONING FOR STAFF.

RECOMMENDATION STAFF IS UNABLE TO SUPPORT THE REQUEST BECAUSE IT IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP.

HOWEVER, STAFF NOTES THAT THE TOWNHOUSES ARE ALLOWED PER THE EXISTING ZONING GOING INTO THE ZONING REQUEST.

SO THIS IS GOING TO BE A PD WITH SINGLE FAMILY TOWNHOUSE AS THEIR BASE ZONING.

1414 UH, UNITS ARE PROPOSED, WHICH WILL BE PLOTTED ON INDIVIDUAL LOTS.

UH, LOCATED THAT CORNER AT 10 50 AND ONE, UH, 1100 NORTH HIGHWAY 1 61.

AND THE PROPERTY IS A LITTLE OVER NORTH, UH, TWO ACRES.

THIS IS THE AERIAL VIEW, UH, OF THE UNDEVELOPED LOT TO THE EAST.

THERE ARE, UH, FOURPLEXES CURRENTLY INTO THE NORTH.

THERE ARE SINGLE FAMILY SUBDIVISION.

THIS IS THE CONCEPT PLAN.

UH, AGAIN, 14 TOWN HOMES.

MINIMUM LIVING AREA IS GOING TO BE 1300 SQUARE FEET.

EACH TOWN HOME HOUSE WILL CONSIST OF TWO CAR GARAGES.

UH, THERE WILL BE A SINGLE POINT OF ENTRY FROM SERVICE ROAD 1 61 AND A SIX FOOT MASONRY WALL WILL BE BUILT ALONG, UH, SERVICE ROAD 1 61.

THESE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS MOSTLY CONSISTING OF BRICK MASONRY AND, UH, CEMENTITIOUS SIDING.

THEY ARE REQUESTING TWO VARIANCES.

ONE IS FOR MINIMUM LOT DEPTH FROM 80 REQUIRED 80 FEET TO 52 FEET FOR FOUR UNITS, UH, ALONG THE SOUTHERN PROPERTY LINE.

UH, AND THE SECOND VARIANCE IS FOR THE MINIMUM SIDE YARD SETBACK FROM 15 FEET TO 10 FEET.

UH, ON THE STREET THERE WERE 31 NOTICES SENT TO THE SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS.

ONE WAS RETURNED IN OPPOSITION.

UH, AS I MENTIONED AT THE BRIEFING, I THINK THEY WERE A LITTLE CONFUSED IN REGARDS TO WHAT WAS BEING PROPOSED.

UH, THIS IS TOWN HOMES, SO IT'S MORE SINGLE FAMILY INSTEAD OF A MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT.

RECOMMENDATION IS THE DRC RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE EXISTING ZONING.

THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AND I'M HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS? AGAIN, YOU DID A VERY GOOD JOB IN BOARD BRIEFING.

I THINK WE HAVE WHAT WE NEED.

I DO BELIEVE.

WE DO NOT HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS ON ITEM NUMBER NINE.

WE HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS?

[00:25:02]

ITEM NINE AND R 10.

THAT 'CAUSE NINE AND 10 AS A COMPANION.

FOR ITEM NUMBER 10, WE HAVE TOMMY YES.

HERE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS IF THE COMMISSION HAS ANY.

TOMMY VBI 1700 ALMOND DRIVE, PLANO, TEXAS.

I'M A CIVIL ENGINEER ON THE PROJECT REPRESENTING THE OWNER HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS THE COMMISSION MAY HAVE COMMISSIONERS.

ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS? COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN.

GOOD EVENING, TOMMY.

GOOD EVENING.

UM, WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HOA YES ON THE PROPERTY.

SO WE'LL HAVE TO ESTABLISH ONE, UM, AND GET THAT SET UP AS PART OF THIS PROCESS.

SO, BUT IT WILL BE REQUIRED, CORRECT? YES, IT WILL BE REQUIRED.

WE'VE GOT A DETENTION BASIN ON THE PROPERTY.

THERE'LL BE LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE ON IT AND SO WE'LL HAVE TO HAVE AN HOA FOR THAT.

WONDERFUL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

COMMISSIONER COCA, UH, IS THERE AN APPROXIMATE PRICE RANGE FOR THE TOWN HOMES APPROXIMATELY? UH, WE DON'T REALLY HAVE ONE AT THIS POINT.

IT VARIES BY THE MARKET.

UM, THEY SHOULD BE A, JUST BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THEM, PROBABLY A LOWER COST UNIT HOUSING UNIT COMPARED TO SOME.

SO I THINK IT REPRESENTS A GREAT OPTION FOR SOME AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE AREA.

FIRST TIME BUYERS.

EXCELLENT.

BUT WHAT IS THAT VARIABILITY? I MEAN, GIVE US A BALLPARK ON THAT.

SORT OF, YOU LIKE THE 400, 400, YEAH.

THOUSAND.

UM, LET'S SEE IF WE HAD, DO WE HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS ON THAT? I HAD ONE, ONE QUESTION.

I HAD SO MANY VARIANCES HERE AND, UH, JUST WONDERED, UH, THERE WAS NO WAY TO TRY TO, TO, TO REWORK THAT TO TRY TO BE IN MORE COMPLIANT TO DRC.

SURE.

UM, THIS IS A RELATIVELY SMALL PIECE OF PROPERTY COMPARED TO I'M SURE A LOT OF THE STUFF THAT YOU GUYS SEE.

IT'S ONLY TWO ACRES.

UM, SO TO MAXIMIZE THE USE OF THE PROPERTY, WE DID HAVE TO DO SOME FUNKY THINGS WITH THE LAYOUT.

UM, ONE OF THE VARIANCES WAS FOR THE FIVE FOOT SIDE YARD BACK SETBACK INTERNAL TO THE PROPERTY.

SO THAT'LL BE ON THE LOCAL STREET THAT WE'RE BUILDING.

AND THE OTHER ONE WAS FOR THE SOUTHERN UNITS.

AND THEY ACTUALLY MEET THE, THE LOT SIZE.

WE JUST HAD TO ROTATE THEM 90 DEGREES.

SO THE WAY THE REQUIREMENT WAS WRITTEN WAS FOR DEPTH, THEIR THE SAME WIDTH, THEIR, THEIR WIDTH WISE WOULD MEET THE REQUIREMENT, BUT THEY DIDN'T MEET THE DEPTH.

SO THAT WAS THE REASON FOR THE VARIANCE IS MAINLY JUST BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE PROPERTY, IT'S HARD TO WORK AROUND SMALLER.

I UNDERSTAND.

I WAS JUST CURIOUS ABOUT THAT.

SURE.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? THANK YOU.

ANY UH, FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? ON THESE ITEMS? CAN WE DO NINE AND 10 TOGETHER? TIFFANY? UH, OKAY.

COMMISSIONER MADDEN.

ALRIGHT.

I MOVE THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEMS NINE AND 10 CPA TWO THREE DASH 11 DASH 24 AND ZERO N DASH 24 DASH THREE DASH 0 0 9 AND MOVE TO APPROVE BOTH ITEMS, UM, AS REQUESTED.

I SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEMS NINE AND 10 BY COMMISSIONER MADDEN AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER CHAPMAN.

ALL IN FAVOR OF THE ITEM, RAISE YOUR HAND.

[11. SUP-24-03-0012 - Specific Use Permit/Site Plan - RBFCU Bank (City Council District 2). Specific Use Permit/Site Plan for a Bank with a Drive-Through on 0.955 acres. Lot 10, Block A, Epic East Towne Crossing Phase 2, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, zoned Planned Development (PD-364), within the SH-161 Corridor Overlay, and addressed as 3162 S Hwy 161]

THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

ITEM 10 IS A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT SLASH SITE PLAN FOR RANDOLPH BROOKS FEDERAL CREDIT UNION AT 31 62 HIGHWAY 1 61 OH ITEM 11.

ITEM 11.

MY APOLOGIES.

, UH, THE SPECIFIC USE PERMIT IS BECAUSE THERE IS GOING TO BE A DETACHED, UH, DRIVE-THROUGH COMPONENT, WHICH IS THE ATM AND THAT THAT IS WHY THIS IS A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT SLASH SITE PLAN AND NOT JUST THE SITE PLAN IN THE CORRIDOR OVERLAY DISTRICT.

SO LOCATED RIGHT ACROSS FROM THE NEW KOHLS LOCATION, THE CURRENT ZONING IS PD 360 4 AND THE SITE IS LESS THAN ONE ACRE.

SO THE FLOOR PLAN IS, UH, THREE 8,856 SQUARE FOOT DETACHED.

AND THE RED PORTION, THE CLOUDED PORTION THAT IS TO THE EAST IS WHERE THE DETACHED ATM IS GOING TO BE LOCATED, UH, FOR THEIR PARKING REQUIREMENTS.

UH, IN THE 1 61 OVERLAY OR ANY CORRIDOR OVERLAY DISTRICTS, THEY ACT AS PARKING MAXIMUMS. SO THEY COULD HAVE A MAXIMUM OF 12 PARKING SPACES.

THEY'RE, UH, REQUESTING 27 PARKING SPACES.

BUT FOR THEIR COMPENSATORY MEASURE, THEY ARE PROVIDING, UH, 50, UH, 6% PERMEABLE PARKING SPACES, WHICH IS 15 PARKING SPACES.

SO THAT'S, THAT'S MEETING THE CODE, UH, FOR THE LANDSCAPE PLAN.

THEY ARE MEETING OR EXCEEDING THE LANDSCAPE PLAN REQUIREMENTS.

THESE ARE THE BUILDING ELEVATIONS AND THE WEST BUILDING ELEVATION IS WHAT'S GOING TO FRONT 1 61.

THEY ARE PROVIDING 12, UH, MANY ITEMS FROM THE APPENDIX F UH, CHECKLIST AND ARE NOT REQUESTING ANY VARIANCES.

UH, THE DRC COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS APPROVAL.

COMMISSIONERS.

ANY QUESTIONS?

[00:30:01]

ABDU? COMMISSIONER MADDEN? NO, I HAVE NO QUESTIONS.

I JUST, ANY NO QUESTIONS? NO MORE QUESTIONS.

UH, DO WE HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS? SO WE HAVE THREE SPEAKER CARDS ON THIS ITEM.

ALL IN SUPPORT.

JOSH LINDSAY IS A, AN EMPLOYEE.

HE DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK UNLESS YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR HIM.

MARK NEWMAN IS ALSO HERE.

I BELIEVE HE'S AN A REALTOR IN THE CASE AND IS ABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR HIM OR OTHERWISE DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK.

THIS ONE IS ACTUALLY FOR THE NEXT ITEM.

IT JUST HAS THE WRONG CASE NUMBER.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

UM, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY, FOR JOSH, CAN YOU COME UP, PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.

THANK YOU FOR BEING SO PATIENT.

UM, WE HAVE OVER 60 BRANCHES DOWN SOUTH AND WE'RE STARTING TWO MORE IN THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS UP HERE, SO.

WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THAT KIND OF SUMS IT UP.

UM, ONE QUICK QUESTION.

THANK YOU BRITTANY AND MONICA AND, UH, SAVANNAH HELPING OUT A LITTLE BIT WITH, IS THIS YOUR FIRST, UH, UH, TIME DOING THIS TYPE OF OPERATION WITH THE ONLINE? UH, IT'S NOT ACTUALLY, I KNOW YOU, I KNOW YOUR FACE FROM THE, ANOTHER PROPERTY THAT I DID MM-HMM .

A FEW YEARS, MAYBE FOUR OR FIVE YEARS AGO.

AND THAT ONE IS A SUCCESS, SO I'M JUST GROWING, YOU KNOW.

THANK YOU FOR COMING TO THANK YOU.

GRAND, GRAND PRAIRIE.

LET'S SEE, I THINK WE HAVE QUESTIONS.

COMMISSIONER MADDEN.

SO I'M CURIOUS, SO THIS IS INTERNET ONLY, AND HOW MANY CARS DO YOU THINK YOU CAN GET INSIDE THE BUILDING? SO, UH, APPROXIMATELY 10 TO 12 CARS, YOU KNOW, REALLY.

UM, INITIALLY WE HAD, UH, AN OUTDOOR, IF IT'S OKAY WITH BRITTANY, IF I CAN JUST ELABORATE ON THAT.

SO THE WAY THIS BUILDING IS BUILT, UH, UH, THE SETBACK OF THE BUILDING IS IN THE FRONT AND THE PARKING IS IN THE BACK.

BUT, UH, BECAUSE THE INTERNET AUTO SALES, THE WAY IT'S WRITTEN, LIKE NO OUTSIDE STORAGE, UM, KIND OF KILLS THIS, YOU KNOW, THE PROFITS ON THIS BUILDING BECAUSE WE HAVE DEAD SPACE IN THE BACK.

IT'S ALL SCREENED.

THERE'S A CAR LOT ON THE LEFT SIDE, THERE'S A CAR LOT ON THE RIGHT SIDE, YOU KNOW? MM-HMM .

SO, UM, IN TERMS OF, YOU KNOW, SPACE GOES, WE WERE HOPING THAT WE CAN, YOU KNOW, PUT CARS IN THE BACK, WHICH IS AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC VIEW, YOU KNOW, AND IT'S ALL SCREENED MM-HMM .

UM, BUT UNFORTUNATELY BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT THE CODE'S WRITTEN, YOU KNOW, WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP EVERYTHING INSIDE, YOU KNOW.

SO DO YOU ALREADY OWN THE PROPERTY OR ARE YOU RENTING IT? I DON'T, MULTIPLE PROPERTIES IN GRAND PRAIRIE.

ACTUALLY SOLD, BUT THIS PARTICULAR ONE, DO YOU OWN THIS ONE ALREADY? YES, MA'AM.

YOU DO? OKAY.

SO ARE YOU GONNA CONTINUE WITH THIS PROJECT IF YOU DON'T HAVE SPACE TO, 'CAUSE I CAN'T IMAGINE TRYING TO STORE THE STORE, THE VEHICLES INSIDE YET WORK ON THEM INSIDE AND THAT SPACE IS VERY SMALL.

UH, YOU KNOW, I'VE, I'VE, YOU KNOW, ALWAYS HAD TO START FROM SMALL.

SO I'M, I'M COM COMFORTABLE WITH THAT.

AND I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE STARTUPS, YOU KNOW, AND MM-HMM .

THINGS ARE NOT THAT GREAT RIGHT NOW IN TERMS OF THE MARKET GOES.

AND I'VE TOLD BRITTANY THAT SEVERAL TIMES.

I'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT WANT TO RENT THE PROPERTY FROM ME, BUT UNFORTUNATELY BECAUSE OF THE USE, YOU KNOW, IT'S DIFFICULT.

SO MOST OF THE CALLS THAT I GET IS FOR, UH, DEALERSHIPS, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE IT'S NEXT TO A AUTO DEALER ON THE RIGHT.

SO I CAN'T PUT A BAKER BAKERY IN BETWEEN, YOU KNOW, TWO CAR DEALERSHIPS.

KIND OF DIFFICULT, BUT WE'LL MAKE IT WORK, YOU KNOW? SO WITHOUT DUE RESPECT TO BRITTANY, YOU KNOW, I, I WAS REALLY, REALLY HOPING THE WAY I PUT THE SIDE PLAN, YOU KNOW, TO, TO BE ABLE TO PUT, YOU KNOW, SEVERAL CARS IN THE BACK TOO, YOU KNOW.

BUT, UM, THE RULES ARE THE RULES, RIGHT.

YOU KNOW, SO IF IF WE CAN'T DO IT, WE CAN'T DO IT.

BUT IF YOU GUYS CAN MAKE THAT, YOU KNOW, VARIANCE, YOU KNOW, THAT THAT WOULD, THAT WOULD HELP OUT THE PROPERTY A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE, UH, YOU KNOW, I'VE DEALT WITH, UH, PHILIP CURTIS, I HAVE EMAILS FROM HIM BEFORE HE RETIRED.

YOU KNOW, I HAVE A GOOD REPUTATION WITH THE CITY, YOU KNOW, AND, UH, YOU GUYS CAN LOOK AT MY TRACK RECORD.

SO I'M, I'M ON TOP OF EVERYTHING.

I CAN APPRECIATE THAT.

UM, YEAH, I THINK, UM, IT'S HARD FOR ME TO, TO NOTHING ON YOU.

IT'S JUST HARD FOR ME TO BELIEVE THAT ANYBODY WOULD NOT BE WANTING TO COME AND SPEND TIME AT YOUR LOCATION LOOKING AT VEHICLES INSTEAD OF JUST BUYING THEM ON THE INTERNET.

I, I, THIS WHOLE CONCEPT A LITTLE BIT UNUSUAL TO ME.

SO IN YOUR PLACE, I WOULD SAY DEFINITELY JUST BANK ON THE WAY IT'S PLANNED RIGHT NOW.

UM, IF IT PASSES, BUT ANYWAY.

IT AND EXPAND THE, THE SPACE, THE INSIDE SPACE, MA'AM.

WE'LL, WE'LL MAKE IT WORK.

YOU KNOW, I'VE, I HAVE 20 YEARS OF CAR BUSINESS BACKGROUND, YOU KNOW, SO WORST CASE, UH, YOU KNOW, I'LL, I'LL, I'LL OPERATE IT MYSELF AND MAKE IT WORK.

YOU KNOW, I'M, I'M KIND OF, YOU KNOW, THIS IS KIND OF A HOBBY THING FOR ME TOO, YOU KNOW, SO I CAN JUST HAVE A FEW CARS OUT THERE.

JUST, YOU KNOW, I, MY MY GOAL IS TO LIVEN UP GRAND PRAIRIE.

HONESTLY, THIS, THIS PROPERTY WAS SITTING VACANT FOR A LONG TIME.

BJ'S OWNED IT, UPHOLSTERY SHOP WAS THERE FOR A LONG TIME, 40 PLUS YEARS, AND HE PASSED AWAY, UNFORTUNATELY.

AND, UH, THE PROPERTY'S BEEN VACANT FOR SEVERAL YEARS.

SO I'M COMING IN, I'M, YOU KNOW, I HAVE THE ENERGY AND IF YOU LOOK AT IT, YOU KNOW, THE PROPERTY LOOKS DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW, IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL.

MM-HMM.

I'VE PAINTED THE BUILDING AND I'VE HAD A LOT OF HITS ON IT SINCE I'VE FIXED IT UP.

SO I'M JUST TRYING TO BUILD TRACTION, YOU KNOW, AND KEEP GOING.

BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, AND WORK WITH YOU ALL.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I, I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION.

YES MA'AM.

DEPENDING ON HOW YOU DO, BECAUSE YOU, YOU, LIKE YOU SAID, YOU'RE CREATIVE AND YOU'RE GONNA TRY TO MAKE IT WORK.

YOU POSSIBLY COULD PROBABLY DO AN IMPROVEMENT ON

[00:40:01]

UH, SO YEAH.

YOU KNOW, THAT, THAT COULD BE AN OPTION.

I, I HAD A CITY COUNCIL MEMBER THAT WAS NICE ENOUGH TO STOP BY AT THE PROPERTY AND LOOK AT IT AND, UH, HE WAS KIND OF CONFUSED OF WHY IT WAS NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE THE OUTSIDE.

AND HE, HE BROUGHT UP SOME POINTS ABOUT MAYBE, UH, 'CAUSE WE HAVE AN AWNING, AWNING IN THE BACK MM-HMM .

AND HE WAS SAYING, MAYBE YOU CAN ASK TO BUILD OUTSIDE, YOU KNOW, COVER, TO COVER IT UP.

YOU KNOW, TO ME THAT WOULD BE ANOTHER REQUEST.

THAT WAS JUST, THAT WAS JUST A, BY THE WAY, COMMENT, WE CAN'T DO THAT ON THIS REQUEST.

BUT THAT WAS JUST A, BY THE WAY, COMMENT, IF THE, IF THE SALES REALLY GROW AND YOU, THAT THAT BUSINESS IS MOVING, THAT MAY BE SOMETHING YOU WANNA CONSIDER, RIGHT? IS EXPANDING THE SPACE.

YEAH, FOR SURE.

THE CLOSED SPACE, IT'S ALL SAYING, YEAH, IT'S, THIS IS AN, THIS WOULD BE A NICE SMALL LITTLE MOM AND POPS OPERATION.

SOMEBODY THAT MAYBE HAS OTHER BUSINESSES AND WILL OPERATE THIS, YOU KNOW, VERY LIGHTLY, YOU KNOW, SO YOU'RE DOING SPECIALTY CARS, LIKE REAL FANCY CARS OR IT'S SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SPECIALTY KNOW, MAYBE SPECIAL, ONE OF A KIND CAR IS NOT THAT GREAT RIGHT NOW FOR THOSE KIND OF CARS, YOU KNOW? MM-HMM .

BUT, UH, I, I'M ON TOP OF IT, YOU KNOW, MAKE SURE SOMETHING'S CREATIVE AND MM-HMM .

UH, MAKE IT WORK.

LIVEN UP THE PROPERTY.

IT'S BEEN VACANT FOR WAY TOO LONG, YOU KNOW.

SO.

ALRIGHT, WELL THANK YOU YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.

HAVE A GOOD NIGHT.

OKAY, THIS IS, UM, IN DISTRICT FIVE.

DO WE HAVE ANY MORE DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? CAN I GET A MOTION FROM SOMEONE, SOMEONE LIKE TO TAKE THIS ONE? COMMISSIONER KOKA MADAM CHAIR.

I WOULD LIKE TO CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT AND APPROVE SUP 24 DASH 3 0 0 15 AUTO DEALER WITH THE, UH, RECOMMENDATIONS, UH, AS OUTLINED BY DRC.

WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY COMMISSIONER KOKA TO APPROVE ITEM, UM, 12 AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER PEREZ.

NEXT CASE

Review SUP No. 1148, a Specific Use Permit for Amusement Services (Indoor) authorizing a Cornhole facility, for compliance with SUP conditions, and modify, renew, or revoke if deemed appropriate based upon the review. Lots 4-7, Block 103, Dalworth Park Addition, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned Commercial, and addressed as 1825 Galveston St]

PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT.

FINAL AGENDA ITEM OF THE NIGHT.

SO THIS IS ANOTHER SPECIFIC USE PERMIT.

THIS IS A RENEWAL REQUEST, UM, FOR A CORNHOLE FACILITY LOCATED 1825 GALVESTON.

SO THIS IS THE REVIEW SUP 1148 FOR AND SO BASICALLY FOR A RENEWAL, STAFF CHECKS AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE COMPLYING WITH ALL THE SUV CONDITIONS THAT WERE IMPOSED BY CITY COUNCIL WHEN IT WAS FIRST APPROVED.

SO THERE WERE A NUMBER OF, UH, CONDITIONS THAT WERE IMPOSED ON THIS SU PS, YOU KNOW, REGARDING THEIR TABC 'CAUSE IT IS A-B-A-Y-O-B LOCATION, UM, THINGS OF THAT NATURE OF WRISTBANDS FOR PEOPLE WHO OVER 21 NOT PLAYING MUSIC INSIDE THE FACILITY.

SO THERE WAS A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT WERE IMPOSED BY COUNCIL WHEN THIS CAME THROUGH LAST YEAR FOR APPROVAL.

AND PART OF THAT WAS THAT THEY WANTED TO COME THEN TO GO BACK BEFORE CITY COUNCIL IN A YEAR TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE STILL, UM, ABIDING BY ALL THOSE CONDITIONS.

SO ALL OF THE DEPARTMENTS THAT GENERALLY DO REVIEW, INCLUDING PD, FIRE, ENVIRONMENTAL BUILDING INSPECTIONS, ALL OF THEM WERE ON THIS REVIEW CHECKING WITH CODE AS WELL.

WE'VE SEEN, WE'VE NO VIOLATIONS THAT WE KNOW OF ANY OF THESE SUP CONDITIONS.

SO AS SUCH, OPERATIONS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH SUP CONDITIONS AND ALL OTHER RULES, REGULATIONS, NO VIOLATIONS TO REPORT.

SINCE OPERATIONS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SUP CONDITIONS, DEAR C RECOMMENDS RENEWAL OF THE SUP.

THANK YOU BRITTANY.

VERY GOOD, VERY GOOD PRESENTATION.
