UH, COMMISSIONER FKO, MADAM CHAIR, IF I MAY, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE DISCUSSION ON ITEM ONE TO APPROVE THE MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 24TH AND VOTE TO APPROVE.

I SECOND.

I HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE THE PUBLIC CONSENT AGENDA ITEM BY COMMISSIONER JOHN FCO AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER VICTOR MEDINA.

COMMISSIONER ITEM, THE NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA.

CAN YOU HEAR ME

[00:05:02]

OKAY?

[2. SUP-25-01-0002 - Site Plan - Midtown Neighborhood Shops (Kalterra) (City Council District 2). Site Plan for two multi-tenant buildings for retail and restaurant uses within Midtown (Kalterra) Development on 2.42 acres. A portion of Lot 4, Block 1, Slink Addition, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned PD-397, within the SH 161 & IH20 Corridor Overlay District, with and tentatively addressed as 3743 and 3753 S Hwy 161]

GOOD EVENING.

THE NEXT ITEM IS THE ITEM NUMBER TWO SITE PLAN APPROVAL FOR THE SSTP 25 0 1 0 0 0 2.

THIS IS FOR THE MIDTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPS FOR A RETAIL RESTAURANT BUILDINGS, UM, TWO BUILDINGS THAT WILL BE A MULTI-TENANT BUILDING.

THEY'LL BE LOCATED AS SHOWN ALONG THE FORUM AND 1 61.

AS YOU KIND OF REMEMBER, THIS WHOLE AREA WAS DEVELOPED BY AND REFERENCED AS A CALERA.

RIGHT NOW WE HAVE NEW DEVELOPERS TRYING TO DEVELOP THE COMMERCIAL SIDE.

THEY HAVE CHOSEN THE NAME OF MIDTOWN AS THEIR NEW KIND OF A, UM, TERM TO AREA.

SO YOU MAY SEE THE MIXTURE OF BOTH JUST SO THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, THOSE WHO WERE FAMILIAR WITH CALERA KNOWS THAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME AREA.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE, THE PROPOSAL IS LOCATED ON THE SOUTH, UH, THE CORNER OF FORUM AND 1 61, THE GREEN DOT KIND OF NOTATES, WHERE, WHERE YOU'VE SEEN THE BEAR, UH, THE BLACK BEAR DINER WITH MULTI-TENANT BUILDING WITH DERIVE THROUGH.

WE APPROVE THAT.

AND THERE'S ANOTHER DEVELOPER LOOKING AT DEVELOPING A, A MULTI-TENANT BUILDING IS INDICATE IN THE MIDDLE.

UM, THE SAME DEVELOPER WHO'S NOW, UH, PURCHASED THIS NORTHERN PORTION HAS, UM, BOUGHT THE, UH, SOUTHERN PROPERTY AS WELL.

AND THEY WISH TO BUILD A MULTI-TENANT BUILDING HERE.

SO THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING.

YOU CAN SEE THE TWO MULTI-TENANT BUILDINGS.

THIS IS KIND OF TOWARD NORTH THIS DIRECTION.

THEY ARE COMPLYING WITH OUR DENSITY AND DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENT, AND THEY ARE MEETING OUR PARKING REQUIREMENT.

THEY'RE PROVIDING THE REQUIRED TREES ALL ALONG 1 61 AND FORUM DRIVE AS SHOWN.

I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT, UM, BECAUSE THIS PD AREA, UM, REQUIRED, SHOWED IN THEIR CONCEPT PLAN, SOME OPEN AREA THAT COULD BE USED FOR THE CUSTOMER, THEN SHARED BY THE MULTITENANT, UM, RESIDENTS.

THEY HAVE PROVIDED THIS WATER FEATURE AND SITTING AREA.

YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT'S PROVIDED BETWEEN THE TWO BUILDINGS.

SO THEY ARE PROVIDING A, A, PROVIDING A FENCED PATIO AREA WITH THE OUTDOOR SEATING.

THEY'RE, UH, DECORATING THAT AREA WITH A PLANTING AREA WITH TREES AND WATER FEATURE THAT WILL BE ABOUT 18 INCHES RAISED FROM THE BOTTOM.

AND THEY ARE PROVIDING OTHER AMENITIES SUCH AS THE BENCH AND BIKE RACKS AND SOME ARTWORK ON THE WALL.

HERE ARE THE PROPOSED ELEVATIONS THAT ARE, OH, THANK YOU.

I GUESS I WAS NOT ON THE MIC SO FAR.

NO, IT WAS OFF, SO, OKAY.

ALL RIGHT.

DO I NEED TO REPEAT ANYTHING? YOU WERE GOOD? NO.

ALL RIGHT.

SO HERE ARE THE ELEVATIONS.

THEY'RE PROPOSING THERE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE APPENDIX F REQUIREMENTS.

AND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE THE INTERNAL ELEVATIONS AND THE REAR, UH, THE REAR OF THE BUILDING, WHICH WILL BE FACING THE MULTIFAMILY AND APPAREL PARKING.

THEY ARE PROVIDING, UM, APPENDIX MENU ITEMS AND MEETING THE APPENDIX F REQUIREMENTS.

SO THEY ARE REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR OVERALL WINDOW PERCENTAGES.

UM, THE ARCHITECT HAS APPROACHED ME SAYING THAT THEY MAY NOT NEED THE VARIANCE, BUT IN CASE THAT THEY DO, UM, THE LEGAL DURING THE BRIEFING ADVICE THAT WE INCLUDE THIS IN THE MOTION, THEY HAVE PROVIDED KIND OF A, A LONG WINDOWS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY WOULD NOT NEED A VARIANCE.

BUT AGAIN, UM, THAT NEEDS TO BE VERIFIED BEFORE COUNSEL.

THEN WE WILL UPDATE THAT RECOMMENDATION ACCORDINGLY.

OVER IN GENERAL, THEY ARE PROVIDING THE OUTDOOR AREA, WHICH IS A DESIRABLE ELEMENT FOR THIS AREA, AND THEY ARE PROVIDING ENOUGH, UM, DESIGN ELEMENTS ON OTHER FACADE STAFF HAS NO OBJECTION TO THIS REQUEST.

UM, SO DRC RECOMMENDS THE APPROVAL.

THIS CONCLUDES, UH, STAFF PRESENTATION.

THE, UH, THE DEVELOPER IS HERE IN CASE YOU HAVE QUESTIONS.

UM, IS THERE ANY QUESTION FOR STAFF AT THIS TIME? COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? I THINK YOU DID A VERY GOOD JOB IN THE BRIEFING.

SPEAKER CARDS.

WE HAVE ONE CARD, UH, BY PETE STICKERY.

STICKERY.

STICKNEY.

THANK YOU MR. STICKNEY.

UM, HE NOTED HE WISHES TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT, BUT ALSO HE DOESN'T WISH TO SPEAK, BUT WANTS TO NOTE HIS SUPPORT.

SO, SIR, IF YOU DO WANNA SPEAK, YOU'RE, I'M SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION.

SO I, I WAS JUST SAYING, I'M HERE IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS.

HE'S HERE.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK WE'RE GOOD.

WE'RE GOOD ON THIS ONE.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THANK YOU FOR COMING.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

AND THAT'S THE ONLY CARD WE HAVE ON THIS ITEM.

WITH, UH, DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

THIS IS ITEM TWO.

THIS IS A DISTRICT TWO WITH COMMISSIONER MADDEN.

DO WE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL, UH, DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? I THINK WE WENT THROUGH A LOT IN THE BOARD BRIEFING.

UH, COMMISSIONER, WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO AHEAD? SURE.

MAKE A MOTION? YES.

UM, I'D LIKE TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEM NUMBER TWO SEP TWO FIVE DASH ZERO ONE DASH 0 0 0 2 SITE PLAN FOR MIDTOWN NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPS AND MOVE TO APPROVE

[00:10:01]

SECOND, HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEM TWO BY COMMISSIONER MICHELLE MADDEN, A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER CHRISTOPHER OCO LEY AS PER DRC.

RECOMMENDATIONS.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HANDS.

NEXT CASE, PLEASE.

[3. SUP-25-01-0004 - Specific Use Permit/Site Plan - Frost Bank at 2575 W Camp Wisdom (City Council District 4). Specific Use Permit/Site Plan for a Bank with Drive-Through Lanes on 1.24 acres. A portion of Lot 1, Block 1, Lake Parks Retail Addition, City of Grand Prairie, Tarrant County, zoned PD-267A, within Lake Ridge Corridor Overlay, and tentatively addressed as 2575 W Camp Wisdom Rd]

HERE'S THE ELEVATION PROVIDED.

SO THE ITEM NUMBER THREE ON THE AGENDA IS A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT SLASH SITE PLAN FOR FROST BANK, SUP 25 0 1 0 0 0 4.

THEY ARE PROPOSING A BANK WITH DRIVE THROUGH LANES, WHICH IS PRETTY STANDARD FOR THESE STANDALONE FROST BANKS.

THEY ARE PROPOSING IT, UM, IN THE AREA THAT'S INDICATED HERE ALONG THE WEST CAMP WISDOM IN, UH, LAKE RIDGE PARKWAY.

THIS IS MORE OF A BREAKOUT OF WHERE THEY'RE TRULY LOCATING.

UM, HERE'S THE CVS AND SOME BOLERO AND SOME OTHER RETAIL CENTERS.

UM, THIS LARGE PARCEL, THEY'RE GONNA PARCEL OUT THIS PORTION, UM, NEXT TO THE EMERGENCY CENTER TO CONSTRUCT THEIR PROPOSED BANK.

HERE'S THE SITE PLAN.

THIS IS THE WEST CAMP WISDOM, AND THIS IS THE ER CENTER.

SO THEY'LL HAVE A BUILDING HERE.

THEY'LL HAVE SOME, UH, DRIVE THROUGH LANES FOR THEIR CUSTOMER TYPES.

THEY ARE MEETING THE DENSITY AND THE DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENT.

THEY ARE REQUESTING TO PROVIDE MORE PARKING THAN THE MAXIMUM.

HOWEVER, THEY ARE PROVIDING THE REQUIRED, UH, COMPENSATORY MEASURES.

SO THEY ARE PROVIDING 10 COMPACT PARKING SPACES AS SHOWN IN THE RARE THEY ARE PROVIDING, UH, REQUIRED TREES.

WE ACTUALLY REQUIRE, ACCORDING TO APPENDIX F STANDARD, THAT THERE WILL BE, UH, NINE TREES PLANTED.

THEY ACTUALLY HAVE 30 FOOT OF GAS EASEMENT AND ABOUT 15 OR 20 FEET OF UTIL EASEMENT.

SO THEY HAVE VERY LIMITED ROOM ON WHERE THEY CAN PLANT THE TREES.

SO THEY ARE PLANTING AS MANY TREES THEY CAN FIT INTO THE FRONT YARD, BUT THEY'RE RELOCATING OTHER TREES ELSEWHERE ON THE SITE.

IN GENERAL, THEY ARE EITHER MEETING OR EXCEEDING THE LANDSCAPE REQUIREMENT.

THEY WANTED TO DO A LOT OF, UM, HIGHLIGHTS ON THE FRONT.

SO THAT WILL BE VISIBLE FROM THE WEST CAMP WISDOM.

SO YOU SEE THEIR MAIN ENTRANCE AND THE TOWER LIKE FEATURE WITH SOME CLEAR STORY WINDOWS, AND THEY HAVE SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WINDOWS IN THE FRONT ON THE SIDE.

AND RARE, THEY DID PROVIDE SOME WINDOWS WHEREVER POSSIBLE.

HOWEVER, THEY ARE REQUESTING SOME VARIANCES ON THIS.

THEY ARE MEETING OUR APPENDIX F CHECKLIST, UM, REQUIREMENT BY PROVIDING 12 MENU ITEMS. SO HERE ARE THE SUMMARY OF THE VARIANCES THAT ARE, THEY ARE REQUESTING, THEY ARE REQUESTING A VARIANCE TO ALLOW PARKING SPACE TO EXCEED THE PARKING MAXIMUM.

THIS IS PRETTY COMMON IN A LOT OF OVERLAYS IF THERE ARE STANDALONE, ESPECIALLY FOR USES SUCH AS RESTAURANTS.

UM, WE HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN A LOT OF BANKS SO FAR, BUT I THINK LAST BANK WE APPROVE, THEY WERE IN THE AREA WHERE THEY'RE SHARING THE PARKING LOT WITH KOHL'S, SO MAYBE THEY DIDN'T NEED THAT.

BUT HERE, I THINK THEY JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT THEY CAN CONTAIN THEIR ALL PARKING SPACES AS THE REST OF THE LAND HAS NOT REALLY FULLY DEVELOPED.

UM, AND THEY ARE REQUESTING, UH, OVERALL WINDOW.

UM, THEY ARE MEETING SIX, 16% OF ALL FACADE AREAS.

AGAIN, THEY'RE PROVIDING SUBSTANTIAL ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS WITH THE CANOPIES AND TOWER LIKE ELEMENTS.

AND CLUSTER.

THREE WINDOWS STAFF DOES NOT REALLY OBJECT TO THIS REQUEST.

UM, THE THIRD IS THEY'RE REQUESTING A VARIANCE ON THE NUMBER OF STREET TREES.

AGAIN, THEY ARE REQUIRED TO PLANT NINE TREES.

HOWEVER, THEY HAVE SUBSTANTIAL, UH, AMOUNT OF EASEMENT ALONG WEST CAMP WISDOM.

THEY COULD NOT REALLY LOCATE IT TO AVOID A CONFLICT WITH EXISTING UTILITIES.

THEY, THEY ARE PROVIDING ONLY FIVE, BUT THEY ARE PLANTING OTHER TREES ELSEWHERE ON THE SITE.

THIS CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION.

THE APPLICANT IS HERE IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF AT THIS TIME? COMMISSIONER MADDEN? GO AHEAD, COMMISSIONER.

SO I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD CORRECTLY.

UM, THEY WANT TO HAVE MORE PARKING THAN IS TYPICAL, CORRECT? CORRECT.

THEY, THEY, THEY ARE REQUESTING MORE PARKING MM-HMM .

THAN WHAT THE, UH, THE MAXIMUM FLOOR AREA ALLOWS AS MAXIMUM.

YES.

AND THEN, SO MM-HMM .

DID I UNDERSTAND THAT? A COMPENSATORY MEASURE MM-HMM .

FOR DOING THAT IS MORE PARKING.

SO NO, UM, COMPENSATORY MEASURE HOW THAT WORKS IS, UM, AS YOU CAN SEE, THEY, IF YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBER MM-HMM .

THEY ARE THE MAXIMUM IS 14.

AND PROVIDING IS 30.

SO HOW IT WORKS IS THAT THERE ARE 16 PLACE PARKING OVER PARKED.

AND HALF OF THAT 16 PARKING SPACES, THESE TO BE THEIR PERMEABLE PARKING AREA OR COMPACT PARKING AREA FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO EVEN REQUEST THE VARIANCE.

I, YEAH.

THE WAY IT WAS SAID, I THOUGHT, OKAY.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS ODD.

IS THAT NEAR THE, I I KNOW THERE WAS ONE ON 1 61 NEAR THE, OH, IS THE NEAR THE WALMART? ANOTHER, ANOTHER, UH, UH, FINANCIAL FACILITY? THERE'S SOMETHING.

SORRY ABOUT, ABOUT THE NO, THAT'S GREAT.

THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION.

MM-HMM.

THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

YES.

I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION.

YES, MA'AM.

IS IT, UM, MY UNDERSTANDING THERE'S A FROST BANK DOWN FURTHER DOWN, UM, CAMP WISDOM, OR

[00:15:01]

I THOUGHT IT WAS A FROST.

IS THAT MY IMAGINATION? I DON'T THINK IT'S FROST, BUT I THINK THERE'S ANOTHER BANK.

MAYBE CHASE BY THE CHILI'S OVER THERE.

YEAH, WELL, THERE'S A, THERE'S WELLS FARGO GIRL AND THERE'S A, A CHASE FOR SURE, BUT ACROSS THE STREET THERE, MAYBE THAT'S A A, IT'S A TEXAS TRUST.

TEXAS TRUST.

OKAY, GREAT.

I KNOW IT WAS SOMETHING, I JUST COULDN'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS.

SURE.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONERS? THANKS JUNE.

OKAY, THANK YOU.

I COULDN'T REMEMBER THAT IT WAS A SENIOR MOMENT.

WE HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS? WE DO, MA'AM.

UH, WE HAVE THE APPLICANT, PRIYA CHARIA, WHO DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT WANTS TO RECORD HER SUPPORT.

UM, WE HAVE A SECOND CARD FROM ERIC TRAVIS WHO DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT WISHES TO NOTE HIS SUPPORT.

WE HAVE A THIRD CARD FROM BOBBY G***H, GO G***H, SORRY.

UM, WHO DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT WISHES TO RECORD HIS SUPPORT AS WELL.

AND THAT IS THE END OF THE CARDS WE HAVE.

COMMISSIONER, DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR, UH, FROST BANK? I JUST WANNA SAY, IF YOU DON'T MIND JUST COMING UP FOR A MINUTE SO WE CAN TELL, GIVE YOU A PROPER THANK YOU.

ONE OF YOU CAN COME UP.

JUST STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

UH, BOBBY GOUGE.

I'M WITH FROST BANK, 4 0 5 PARK OAK, HOLLYWOOD PARK, TEXAS.

WE JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU.

OH, , THANK YOU FOR, FOR, UM, MAKING THE EFFORT TO WANT TO DO BUSINESS IN GRAND PRAIRIE, AND WE DO APPRECIATE IT.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE BUILDING A SECOND ONE.

SO WE'RE EXCITED TO GET, GET, GET A SECOND ONE OPEN.

WELL, WE JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU.

NO CREDIT CARDS, MA'AM.

THIS IS, UM, THIS IS MY DISTRICT, HO HO, DISTRICT FOUR.

UM, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON, UM, LET'S SEE, SUP 25 0 1 0 0 0 4 SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR FROST BANK, UH, AS PER DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

SECOND, HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY MYSELF, CHERYL SMITH TO APPROVE.

AND A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER MICHELLE MADDEN.

UH, ALL IN FAVOR PER DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

PARK, IS OF ONGOING REVIEW.

[4. ZON-25-01-0003 - Zoning Change - 1822 Mobile Rd (City Council District 6). Zoning Change from Agricultural District to Single Family-Five Residential District on 0.43 acres. Tract 48, Matthew Rd MH EST, Thomas J Tone Survey, Abstract 1460, Page 225, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned Agriculture District, and addressed as 1822 Mobile Road]

ALL RIGHT.

THIS NEXT ITEM IS A ZONING CHANGE LOCATED AT 1822 MOBILE ROAD.

YOU CAN SEE THE PROPERTY IS OUTLINED IN YELLOW ON THE SCREEN.

AND THE PURPOSE OF THIS REQUEST IS TO CHANGE THE ZONING FROM AGRICULTURE TO SINGLE FAMILY.

FIVE, TO ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO CONSTRUCT A SINGLE FAMILY HOME THIS LOCATION.

UH, SO THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP IS LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL.

SO THEIR PROPOSAL ALIGNS WITH THAT, AND THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 1822 MOBILE ROAD.

UM, SOME BACKGROUND ON THIS AREA.

UM, THE MOBILE ROAD, UM, ESTATES WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1968 BY MEETS AND BOUNDS.

UH, FOR THE MOST PART, THE PARK IS NOT PLATTED, EXCEPT FOR A FEW LOTS WHERE THE ZONING HAS BEEN CHANGED.

THE LOTS WERE CREATED BY DEED AND SOLD OFF INDIVIDUALLY AS MOBILE HOME LOTS.

IN, UH, 1969, THE PROPERTY WAS ANNEXED INTO THE CITY, AND TO DATE, THE DEVELOPMENT HAS NOT BEEN PLOTTED AS A WHOLE, NOR HAVE THE STREETS BEEN DEDICATED AS RIGHT OF WAY TO THE PUBLIC.

UH, THE CITY COUNCIL HAS APPROVED EIGHT REZONING CASES, UH, FROM AGRICULTURE DISTRICT TO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL.

UH, THE PURPOSE OF THOSE ZONING CASES SIMILAR TO THIS ONE WAS TO ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO CONSTRUCT SITE-BUILT HOMES.

UM, SO LOOKING AT THIS LOCATION, ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE REVIEWED IS THE INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE AREA.

SO THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN 300 FEET OF AN EXISTING WATER LINE AND WASTEWATER LINE.

AND DUE TO THIS PROXIMITY, THE APPLICANT MAY BE REQUIRED TO EXTEND THE WATER AND WASTEWATER LINES TO SERVE THE LOCATION.

UH, SO YOU CAN SEE THE MAP OF THAT ON THE SCREEN.

THE SHADED LOCATION IS THE PROPERTY, AND THEN THE BLUE AND GREEN LINES REPRESENT THE WASTEWATER AND WATER LINES.

UH, SO THIS DETERMINATION WOULD BE MADE BY THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY DEPARTMENT AND THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, AND THE APPLICANT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THIS.

UM, SO THE PROPERTY IS ACCESSED VIA MOBILE ROAD, A PRESCRIPTIVE EASEMENT.

SO THIS ROAD IS MAINTAINED AT A MINIMAL LEVEL BY INDIVIDUALS WITHIN THE MATTHEW ROAD MOBILE HOME ESTATES COMMUNITY.

UM, THE PROPERTY WILL BE REQUIRED TO MEET THE ZONING REQUIREMENTS FOR SINGLE FAMILY FIVE, WHICH ARE SUMMARIZED ON THE SCREEN.

UM, SO THE CURRENT STATUS OF THE MOBILE ROAD, MATTHEW ROAD, MOBILE HOME

[00:20:01]

THERE'S LACK OF UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE AREA TO ADEQUATELY SERVE NEW HOMES AND PROVIDE ACCEPTABLE PUBLIC SAFETY TO RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY DURING INCLEMENT RATHER STAFF'S CONCERNED ABOUT THE LONG-TERM INTEGRITY OF THE CURRENT WATER SYSTEM SERVING THE PARK AND THE INSTALLATION OF NEW SEPTIC SYSTEMS WITHIN THE VICINITY OF JOE POOL LAKE.

ADDITIONALLY, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS ACCOUNTED IN INSTANCES OF DIFFICULTY ASSESS ACCESSING THE, UH, PROPERTIES WHEN THEY'RE RESPONDING DURING EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS.

UM, THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE DOES NOT FULLY SUPPORT REZONING, UH, REQUESTS DUE TO LACK OF SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES TO THE PROPERTY.

HOWEVER, SHOULD THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST, STAFF RECOMMENDS THE FOLLOWING CONDITION THAT THE APPLICANT SHALL OBTAIN APPROVAL OF A PLAT AND FILE IT WITH THE COUNTY, UH, PRIOR TO THE ISSUANCE OF ANY BUILDING PERMITS.

THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

I CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

COMMISSIONERS, WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER FEDCO.

SAVANNAH, CAN YOU GO UP ONE SLIDE? GO BACK ONE SLIDE.

EXCUSE ME.

WHEN YOU SAY THE CURRENT STATUS OF MATTHEW ROAD MOBILE HOME PARK IS OF ONGOING REVIEW.

REVIEW BY WHOM? AND FOR WHAT? IT'S JUST WE'RE NOTING THESE INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES, UM, AS THESE REQUESTS COME THROUGH.

SO THE, THE STAFF.

STAFF, OKAY.

BUT IT'S ONLY ON AN AD HOC BASIS WHENEVER AN APPLICATION IS MADE? CORRECT.

THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

I HAVE A QUESTION.

UM, THE TIME SPAN BETWEEN THE APPROVALS IS WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT.

THERE HAVE BEEN EIGHT APPROVALS.

HOW MANY HAVE BEEN RECENT? THE, THE, THE RECENT YEARS? SO I, I BELIEVE STARTING PROBABLY IN 2012, UH, THE PREVIOUS ONE BEFORE THIS, THERE WAS ONE IN, UH, 2023.

SO IN THAT SPAN OF PROBABLY 2007 OR EIGHT TILL NOW.

SO IT'S KIND OF SPORADIC.

IT'S NOT, UH, JUST A, A CONSISTENT, UH, THAT'S WHAT I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT.

IT'S KIND OF LIKE ALMOST GRANDFATHERING IN IF IT WAS A LOT ALL AT ONE, YOU KNOW, COMING ONE AFTER THE OTHER.

BUT IT'S BEEN KIND OF, UH, OFF AND ON IT, IT SEEMS LIKE, UH, A LOT.

UM, YOU KNOW, IF THEY'RE PAYING TAXES, THEY ASK THE HOMEOWNER, THE HOMEOWNER HAVING TO DO ALL THIS EXTRA WORK, NOT HAVING THE INFRASTRUCTURE.

IT JUST SEEMS A BIT, THE WHOLE THING SEEMS A BIT STRANGE TO ME.

JUST TO NOTE IN REGARDS TO ONGOING REVIEW, COMMENT.

UM, YOU KNOW, WITH REGARD TO THE APPLICATIONS COMING IN SPORADICALLY, I THINK COUNCIL'S VIEW IN THE PAST WAS TO ALLOW THIS TO TRANSITION NATURALLY FROM AG TO THIS SF FIVE AS PEOPLE MOVED INTO THAT AREA.

BUT I THINK ALSO THE COST BENEFIT TO TRANSITION THE PROPERTY IN THE STREET AND THE WATER SYSTEM IS A COSTLY EFFORT, AND IT ISN'T GOING TO EQUATE TO, UH, AN EVEN EXCHANGE WITH REGARD TO THE PROPERTY TAXES THAT WOULD BE ACQUIRED.

SO I THINK THEY'RE CONSIDERING THAT.

UM, THAT'S MY VIEW.

UH, COUNCIL IS AWARE OF, AS Y'ALL KNOW, Y'ALL'S RECOMMENDATION GOES TO COUNCIL, SO THEY'RE AWARE OF THIS AREA AS WELL.

WE CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH WITH REGARD TO OUR COMMENTS AND OUR REVIEW.

UH, THE FUNDING HAS TO COME, WHETHER IT'S A CIP PROJECT OR NOT.

I THINK, UH, THERE'S OPPORTUNITY POSSIBLY TO PUT THIS AS A GRANT REQUEST FOR OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, WHICH WE HAVE DONE.

I THINK, UM, THAT'S OUTTA MY AREA, BUT I KNOW COUNCIL IS PUSHING FOR GRANTS TO, UH, DEVELOP THESE TYPE OF SITU SITUATIONS, ADDRESS THESE TYPE OF SITUATIONS WITH THE INFRASTRUCTURE.

UM, AGAIN, WE'LL BRING THIS UP AGAIN WITH COUNCIL.

THAT'S WHY WE DON'T FULLY SUPPORT, BUT WE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS AREA IS TRANSITIONING DUE TO THE, THE PRICING, UM, THE NEED FOR HOUSING.

AND PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO MOVE IN AND ADDRESS THAT FOR ON THEIR OWN.

UM, YEAH.

WELL THANK YOU FOR THAT.

AND THAT, THAT, THAT SPEAKS VOLUMES TO, UH, I THINK THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED THE GRANT, UM, THE GRANTS ON THAT, BECAUSE THAT'S A LOT FOR AN INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNER TO TAKE ON, YOU KNOW, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THEY WANT TO BE IN GRAND PRAIRIE, YOU KNOW, WHICH SPEAKS VOLUMES AS WELL THAT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO ENTERTAIN EVERYBODY'S REQUESTS WHEN THEY COME IN.

UH, COMMISSIONERS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMISSIONER ERCO? SO, JUST TO BE CLEAR, RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE PAYING CITY SCHOOL TAXES.

BUT THEY'RE NOT PAYING A, UH, THEY DON'T PAY ANY KIND OF WATER BILL OR SEWAGE BILL TO THE CITY.

CORRECT.

THAT'S WHAT I UNDERSTAND.

THAT'S PRIVATELY SERVED.

UM, IF THEY'RE WITHIN A CERTAIN DISTANCE OF AN EXISTING, UH, WATER LINE, THOUGH, OUR CODE REQUIRES THEM TO CONNECT.

UM, BUT ALL THESE THAT HAVE HAPPENED PRIOR TO ARE FOR FURTHER THAN THAT DISTANCE.

I THINK THE DISTANCE IS 300 FEET.

EASEMENT, NOBODY EVER DEEDED THE EASEMENT OVER TO GET TO THOSE LINES.

I I, I NOTE THOUGH, RASHAD, THAT YOU'RE ASKING THEM TO BUILD A LINE BY USE OF ADVERSE POSSESSION, WHICH IS NOT FINANCEABLE.

IF IT'S A PRESCRIPTIVE

[00:25:01]

THAT'S DISCRETIONARY AS REQUIRED.

IT'S VERY SHAKY GROUND.

LEGALLY SPEAKING, WE ARE JUST PUTTING WHAT WAS IN THE CODE.

IF IT, IT DOESN'T, NEC DOESN'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE ENFORCED.

THAT'S, THAT'S THE DECISION THAT Y'ALL CAN MAKE ON THIS.

SO THE IDEA OF THEM NOT CONNECTING INTO THE CITY SEWER LINE AND NOT CONNECTING INTO THE WATER SUPPLY, THAT'S NOT REQUIRED.

Y'ALL'S RECOMMENDATION CAN BE, OTHERWISE YOU CAN STATE TO COUNCIL, WE WOULD RATHER THIS JUST BE A SEPTIC SYSTEM AND, AND USE THE EXISTING PRIVATE WATER SYSTEM.

WE CAN GET TO THE LEGALS ON WHETHER OR NOT THAT COULD BE FORCED.

WAS JUST GONNA ASK JULIE IF SHE HAD A, A WORD ON THAT.

WOULD SHE HAD LIKE TO COMMENT ON THAT? I, I WOULD SAY THIS.

I WOULD SAY THIS IS A STRAIGHT ZONING REQUEST, SO WE CANNOT GRANT VARIANCES LIKE THAT IN THIS, IN THIS TYPE OF REQUEST.

SO YOU DISAGREE WITH MR. JACKSON? I DO, YES.

I I I DON'T THINK WE CAN GRANT A VARIANCE TO ANOTHER, UM, CODE REQUIREMENT, UH, THROUGH THIS ZONING REQUEST.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? UH, FOR SAVANNAH COMMISSIONERS? YEAH.

THANK YOU SAVANNAH.

, DO WE HAVE ANY, UH, SPEAKER CARDS? NOT FOR THIS ITEM, MA'AM.

THIS IS, UM, ITEM NUMBER FOUR, WHICH IS A DISTRICT SIX.

DO WE HAVE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? 'CAUSE THIS IS A INTERESTING ITEM THERE.

I MEAN, THERE'S NO ONE HERE TO PRESENT FOR THE APPLICANT, CORRECT? NO, NO MA'AM.

AND I WANTED TO QUALIFY MY ANSWER.

WE CAN'T GRANT THAT VARIANCE TONIGHT THROUGH THIS STRAIGHT ZONING, BUT THEY COULD ALWAYS COME AND REQUEST A VARIANCE THROUGH ZBA FOR THAT.

THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION.

IT THAT CLEARS IT UP SOMEWHAT.

UH, COMMISSIONERS, UH, DO WE HAVE ANY DISCUSSION? VICTOR, DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMISSIONER, UH, MEDINA, UM, SPEAKING TO SOMEONE WHO GREW UP IN THAT AREA, UM, WE LIVED ON 1713 CORAL ROAD.

THAT'S, THAT'S IN THAT AREA.

UH, I, I THINK IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO BUILD THERE, WE SHOULDN'T JUST SHUT IT DOWN AS LONG AS THEY KNOW UPFRONT WHAT THEY'RE GETTING INTO.

MM-HMM.

UM, AND IT'S NOT A SURPRISE MM-HMM .

TO THEM.

WE, WE HAD, UH, WE HAD WELL WATER THERE MM-HMM .

WHEN I WAS GROWING UP.

UM, AND SO I, I THINK IT BUILDING A HOME, AN ACTUAL HOME THERE VERSUS A MOBILE HOME, UH, COULD BE BENEFICIAL TO THAT AREA.

I MEAN, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO WITH THE LAND? PUT ANOTHER MOBILE HOME ON IT, THAT'S MM-HMM .

NOT GONNA HELP.

MM-HMM.

THE VALUE OF THAT AREA AT ALL.

UH, AND, AND, AND I KNOW THERE'S A STIGMA THAT, THAT, THAT PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE ARE, YOU KNOW, WANTING TO BE OUT OF THE, THE GRASP OF ANY POTENTIAL CITY.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALWAYS THE CASE.

WE, WE WOUND UP THERE 'CAUSE IT WAS THE ONLY PLACE WE COULD AFFORD TO LIVE.

UM, SO JUST WANTED TO MM-HMM .

PUT THAT OUT THERE.

WELL, THOSE ARE VERY, UH, UH, HELPFUL COMMENTS, YOU KNOW, THAT, THAT YOU MADE.

AND I'M GLAD YOU MADE THEM BECAUSE EVERYBODY HAS A RIGHT TO, UH, OF OWNERSHIP.

AND LIKE I SAID, THEY KNOW UPFRONT, YOU KNOW, WHAT THE CONDITIONS ARE AND THE COST FACTOR, THEN IT'S UP TO THEM.

SO THAT'S A VERY GOOD POINT.

THANK YOU FOR THAT.

UH, COMMISSIONER FEDCO YOU MORE COMMENTS FROM YOU? YOU, I HAVE, I HAVE A TON OF COMMENTS, BUT I'LL TRY TO TONE 'EM DOWN.

BECAUSE I'VE, I'VE BEEN ON PLANNING AND ZONING SINCE 2020.

I THINK THIS IS THE, MAYBE THE THIRD OR FOURTH CASE IN THAT TIMEFRAME SINCE THERE, AND I THINK THIS IS COMMISSIONER VAUGHN'S DISTRICT, RIGHT? MM-HMM .

I MEAN, THIS IS A PROBLEM.

I MEAN, ACTUALLY TO, TO COMMISSIONER MEDINA'S POINT, YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK AND BUILD WITHOUT CITY INFRASTRUCTURE.

JUST IMAGINE WHAT KIND OF PRODUCT YOU WOULD GET THERE IF WE HAD CITY INFRASTRUCTURE.

AND IT, IT PAINS ME A LITTLE BIT TO THINK THAT THE CITY IS LOOKING AT THE IMPROVEMENTS VERY MUCH LIKE A COMPANY WOULD LOOK AT IT PROFITED SO THAT IF WE PUT THE MONEY IN, WE'RE NOT GONNA GET THE REVENUE BACK ON THE TAX BASE.

THAT'S, IF I UNDERSTOOD YOU CORRECTLY, RASHAD, THAT'S BASICALLY WHAT WE'RE SAYING.

THAT HAS BEEN MY ASSESSMENT.

AND SO, AND SOMEBODY, THEREFORE, SOMEBODY'S PUTTING A PRICE MONEY ON PUBLIC SAFETY ON THAT.

AND I THINK THAT'S, SOMEBODY'S PUTTING A PRICE ON PUBLIC SAFETY.

YOU HAVE ROWS THAT ARE INACCESSIBLE DURING BAD WEATHER.

YOU HAVE A UNSAFE WATER SUPPLY, A SEPTIC TANK, THE SYSTEM THAT'S NO DIFFERENT THAN THE WAY PEOPLE DID IT A HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

AND I DON'T FIND THAT I, I'M, I WOULD LIKE TO APPROVE THIS AND ENCOURAGE PEOPLE THIS, BUT I HOPE THAT IF ANYTHING, IT LIGHTS A FIRE UNDER THE CITY TO, YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE THAT WANNA COME TO GRAND PRAIRIE AND TAKE ON THIS RISK.

IMAGINE IF WE ACTUALLY ROLLED THE CARPET OUT AND HAD BASIC SERVICES THERE FOR THEM.

COMMENTS? WELL, I, I, I AGREE WITH BOTH OF YOU.

SO THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY.

GOOD POINT.

COMMISSIONER, COMMISSIONER MADDEN, DO YOU HAVE ANY

[00:30:01]

UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I THINK IS INTERESTING, AND JUST AS A COMMENT AMONGST US HERE ON THE COMMISSION IS THAT, YOU KNOW, IT'S BEEN, IT'S BEEN PART OF OUR CITY OR IT'S BEEN, UM, BROUGHT IN SINCE 69.

WHY DIDN'T WE SAVE THE TAX MONIES FROM THEN AND THEN ADD THOSE UP AND PAVE AND WHATEVER.

BUT THAT'S JUST MY COMMENT, I BELIEVE TOO, AGAIN, YOU KNOW, UM, IF WE NEED INFILL AND IF SOMEBODY'S AWARE OF THE CONDITIONS OF THE PROPERTY, LET 'EM DO IT.

RIGHT? YEAH.

GOOD COMMENT.

THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.

COMMISSIONER CAULEY.

TECHNICALLY, I DON'T THINK I'M A SUPPORT DATE SINCE, UH, THE RC DON'T WANNA BE ON BOARD IT.

THEY'RE .

I DON'T WANT TO GO WITH IT.

ALRIGHT, THIS NEXT ITEM IS SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS ONE AND THAT THEY'RE REQUESTING A ZONING CHANGE AT 1801 MOBILE ROAD.

WELL, I'M, I'M GONNA MAKE THE LAST COMMENT BEFORE, UM, COMMISSIONER, UH, LUCKY MAKES HER COMMENTS AND THEN MAKES A MOTION.

I TEND TO AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER MEDINA, UH, FKO AND MADDEN BECAUSE I, YOU KNOW, BELIEVE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD TRY TO DO WHAT WE CAN TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BE IN GRAND PRAIRIE.

AND THEY, LIKE, LIKE COMMISSIONER, UH, PKO SAID THEY WANT TO BE HERE.

AND KNOWING THE COST FACTOR, YOU KNOW, I, I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT, UH, WE SHOULD CONSIDER DOING.

UH, COMMISSIONER, UH, LUCKY DO YOU WANNA MAKE ANY COMMENTS BEFORE YOU MAKE A MOTION? OKAY.

WELL, NO MORE COMMENTS BEING MADE.

UH, THE FLOOR IS OPEN FOR YOU TO, UH, MAKE A MOTION.

MADAM CHAIR, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE, I WOULD LIKE TO, UM, MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING, AND I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ZON DASH 25 DASH ZERO ONE DASH 0 0 3.

ZONING CHANGE WITH THE, WITH WITH, WITH THE NO AS HOW DO WE DO THE REQUIREMENT THAT THEY, WITH THE REQUIREMENT THAT, OH, YEAH, THAT THE DRC RECOMMENDATIONS DRC HAD RECOMMENDED DRC RECOMMENDATIONS.

CAN I GET A SECOND? I'LL SECOND THAT.

WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR TO APPROVE ITEM FOUR PER DRC RECOMMENDATIONS AND A SECOND BY COMMISSION FOR DCO.

ALL IN FAVOR OF APPROVING THIS MOTION.

RAISE YOUR HAND.

MOTION.

UH, IS, UM, THERE ARE 3, 5, 4.

ALL THOSE OPPOSED? RAISE YOUR HAND OPPOSE ONE.

SO THE MOTION CARRIES FIVE TO ONE.

NEXT CASE PLEASE.

[5. ZON-25-01-0004 - Zoning Change - 1802 Mobile (City Council District 6). Zoning Change from Agricultural District to Single Family-Five Residential District on 0.46 acres. Tract 43, Matthew Rd MH EST, Thomas J Tone Survey, Abstract 1460, Page 225, City of Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas, zoned Agriculture District, and addressed as 1802 Mobile Road]

THE EXISTING ZONING IS AGRICULTURE.

THEY'RE PROPOSING A ZONING OF SINGLE FAMILY FIVE.

AGAIN, THEY INTEND TO CONSTRUCT A SINGLE FAMILY HOME.

UM, I WON'T GO THROUGH THE BACKGROUND, BUT IT'S THE SAME, SAME ISSUES.

UH, THEY ARE NOT WITHIN 300 FEET OF AN EXISTING WATER LINE OR WASTEWATER LINE, SO THEY WILL NEED TO GET A SEWER OR A SEPTIC SYSTEM, UH, APPROVED BY PUBLIC HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY.

AND TCEQ, UH, MATTHEW ROAD MOBILE HOME ESTATES COMMUNITY PROVIDES WATER, UH, THROUGH A PRIVATE WATER DISTRICT.

AND SO THEY WILL OBTAIN THEIR WATER THROUGH THAT SOURCE.

UH, AND THEN AGAIN, ACCESS IS OFF OF MOBILE ROAD.

UM, THEY'LL BE REQUIRED TO MEET THE ZONING REQUIREMENTS FOR SINGLE FAMILY FIVE.

AND, UM, SAME CONDITION.

THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE DOES NOT FULLY SUPPORT THE ZONING REQUEST DUE TO LACK OF SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES TO THE PROPERTY.

BUT SHOULD THE P AND Z RECOMMEND APPROVAL STAFF RECOMMENDS THE FOLLOWING CONDITION, THE APPLICANT SHALL OBTAIN APPROVAL OF A PLAT AND FILE IT WITH THE COUNTY BEFORE THE ISSUANCE OF BUILDING PERMITS.

THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION.

I CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME.

COMMISSIONERS ANY QUESTIONS FOR SAVANNAH? THANK YOU, SAVANNAH.

GREAT PRESENTATION.

WE HAVE ANY SPEAKER CARDS? WE DO HAVE ONE SPEAKER CARD FROM TRACY WYN.

SHE DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT WANTS TO RECORD HER SUPPORT.

UM, SHE HAS WRITTEN SOME NOTES ON HER CARD THAT I'LL READ OUT.

ON THE RECORD, IT SAYS, PROPERTY ON A WELL MAINTAINED PRIVATE ROAD FIRETRUCK SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE.

SEPTIC FOR WASTED WATER, WATER, WELL AND METER AT STREET.

AND STANDARD SINGLE, I'M ASSUMING SINGLE FAMILY HOME, 2,500 SQUARE FEET TO 3,500 SQUARE FEET.
