CHAIRMAN, COMMISSIONERS. SENIOR PLANNER TO PRESENT ITEM NUMBER 12. ITEM NUMBER 12 IN THE AGENDA IS A PRELIMINARY PLAT SUBMITTED BY MAGNUM CONSULTING FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED AT 5100 5114 POLO CLUB ROAD, TO ADJUST THE LOT LINES IN BETWEEN THE LOTS. THE TOTAL ACREAGE OF THE PROPERTY IS 16.17 ACRES, AND IT WILL BE PLATTED INTO TWO. THE CURRENT ZONING IS A AGRICULTURAL ESTATE AS WELL AS THE PROPERTIES TO THE WEST AND NORTH. THE PROPERTIES TO THE EAST ARE ZONED SF ONE, WHILE THE PROPERTIES TO THE SOUTH ARE ZONED SF THREE AND SF TWO. THE PROPERTY WILL REMAIN A. THE CURRENT USE OF THE PROPERTY IS RESIDENTIAL. THE USES TO THE NORTH, SOUTH, EAST AND WEST ARE ALSO RESIDENTIAL. THE PROPOSED WILL REMAIN THE SAME. HERE'S THE SITE ON CARDINAL LANE, LOOKING SOUTH. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATES THIS LOCATION AS URBAN RESIDENTIAL LOW. THIS DESIGNATION HAS AN EMPHASIS ON

[00:05:02]

MIXED HOUSING STYLES. WE RECEIVED ONE OBJECTION LAST WEEK AND A FEW ADDITIONAL OBJECTIONS THIS MORNING. SINCE THEN, WE HAVE PROVIDED ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO FURTHER EXPLAIN THE REQUEST TO CLARIFY WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED. IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A CONFUSION FOR SITE NUMBER SEVEN, WHICH IS THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THE IT'S I GUESS WITH THE ZONING, THEY'RE GETTING CONFUSED WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE ZONING, BUT THE CONCERNS RAISED INCLUDE POTENTIAL IMPACTS RELATED TO TRAFFIC DRAINAGE, INSUFFICIENT INFRASTRUCTURE AND SETBACK REQUIREMENTS. LIKE I SAID, MORE OBJECTIONS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED.

STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITION. AND I DID PUT ONE OF THE LIST THAT THEY PROVIDED ME THIS MORNING WITH THE LIST OF ALL THE PROPERTY OWNERS WHO OBJECT TO THIS IN CASE. AND I'M OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? EXCUSE ME, ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. IS THE APPLICANT PRESENT? WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME SPEAK ON THE MATTER? FOR THE RECORD NAME AND ADDRESS? I AM EDWARD RUNYON. I LIVE AT 5100 POLO CLUB. WE ARE PLANNING TO MOVE TO THE FORT WORTH AREA, CHASING GRANDCHILDREN LIKE EVERYBODY DOES. AND THE LOT LINES BETWEEN MY DAD'S PROPERTY.

MY PROPERTY DIDN'T QUITE FOLLOW THE THE CURVE OF THE DRIVEWAY WE BUILT THAT WE SHARED AT THE SAME TIME, AND WE'RE JUST ADJUSTING THAT TO A SMALL AMOUNT SO THAT THE FENCE, WHEN I BUILD IT TO ENCOMPASS ENCOMPASS MY PROPERTY DOESN'T GO THROUGH MY FRONT YARD. AND THAT'S THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THIS PLAT CHANGE. THANK YOU. OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING. ARE THERE ANY HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS REQUEST? ALL RIGHT. SEEING NONE, I WILL MOVE ON. I HAVE A NANCY MEYERS. WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME SPEAK AT THIS TIME? SURE. NAME AND ADDRESS, PLEASE. HOWDY. MY NAME IS WESLEY MOFFAT. I'M SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF NANCY MEYERS AT 1704 NORMANDY LANE. SHE HAS LIVED THERE FOR ABOUT 40 YEARS, DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO THIS LAND. REGARDING THIS AGENDA ITEM, WE UNDERSTAND IT'S STRICTLY A PRELIMINARY PLAT TO ADJUST LOT LINES. WE DO NOT OPPOSE THAT AT THIS TIME.

HOWEVER, BECAUSE THE CITY'S FUTURE LAND USE MAP DESIGNATES THIS. USE THIS AREA AS YOU ARE.

YOU ARE DASH L. WE ARE SPEAKING TODAY TO PLACE OUR POSITION ON THE OFFICIAL RECORD FOR ANY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT. IF A ZONE CHANGE IS EVER REQUESTED FOR THIS 16 ACRE TRACT, WE WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT SURROUNDING RESIDENTS STRONGLY OPPOSED HIGH DENSITY. YOU ARE DASH L ZONING AND WILL ASK THAT IT MEAN THAT IT REMAIN A AND BE RESTRICTED STRICTLY TO URBAN, RESIDENTIAL OR LARGE LOT. THE URLL DESIGNATION TO PROTECT THE ESTABLISHED HOMES, VALUES, DRAINAGE AND PRIVACY. SO ESSENTIALLY, SHOULD REZONING OCCUR DOWN THE ROAD, WE WILL ALSO ASK FOR STANDARD NEIGHBOR STANDARD NEIGHBORHOOD MITIGATIONS REGARDING HEIGHT SETBACKS, PRIVACY SCREENINGS, DRAINAGE AND STREET ACCESS. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. NEXT, IS THERE A CLAYTON BIBLE THAT WOULD LIKE TO COME SPEAK? HI, CLAYTON BIBLE 5012 STONELEIGH DRIVE, JUST DUE SOUTH OF THAT LOT RIGHT THERE. TO ADD ON TO HIS COMMENTS, THE MAIN CONCERN FOR THE RESIDENTS OF POLO PARK IS WE LIVE IN A SOMEWHAT SECLUDED NEIGHBORHOOD, AND I JUST WANTED TO KIND OF OUTLINE OUR CONCERNS. NUMBER ONE, THE REQUEST SEEMED A LITTLE ODD THAT HE WOULD USE A CONSULTING FIRM TO REPLAT SEEMED LIKE YOU COULD JUST DO THAT YOURSELF THROUGH SOME COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE CITY, AND THEN TO RELAY EVERYBODY ELSE'S CONCERNS. WE DO NOT WANT THIS TO BE HIGH DENSITY HOUSING. A LOT OF KIDS LIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD DUE SOUTH. WE'RE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE ROADS, THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC INCREASE, AND THAT'S THAT'S REALLY OUR BIGGEST OUR BIGGEST DEAL. AND CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC AND DRAINAGE RUNOFF, THAT TYPE OF THING. ALL RIGHT. I APPRECIATE THAT. I WILL JUST BEFORE WE MOVE ON IT, IT REALLY DOES LOOK LIKE JUST TO ADDRESS THE CONCERN YOU SAID, WHY WHY HAVE A CONSULTANT JUST FOR INFORMATION. YOU HAVE TO HAVE EVERYTHING DONE PROFESSIONALLY WITH SURVEYORS. AND THOSE CONSULTING FIRMS TEND TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT ACCESS AND

[00:10:04]

GET THESE DONE PROPERLY SO THAT THOSE PROPERTY LINES ARE ARE DRAWN ACCORDINGLY. AND IT'S NOT JUST BACK OF THE NAPKIN KIND OF THINGS. THE OTHER THING HERE IS THAT THIS IS STILL ZONED AS A E, WHICH MEANS THAT THIS ALL THESE HIGH DENSITY THINGS THAT YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT, THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO COME HERE. AND TO BE HONEST, NO MATTER WHAT THE. THE CITY'S PLAN OR WHATEVER HAS COME AND SAID ABOUT ABOUT THE PROPERTIES, THERE WOULD BE A LOT OF THINGS THAT WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH, ESPECIALLY, AS HAS BEEN MENTIONED, A ZONE CHANGE THAT WOULD HAVE TO COME THROUGH BEFORE ANYTHING OF HIGHER DENSITY WOULD NEED, WOULD BE ABLE TO COME THROUGH. SO I JUST I WANTED TO STATE THAT I FEEL LIKE IT'S FAIR FOR YOU GUYS TO COME AND VOICE YOUR CONCERNS, BUT I WOULD THINK, ALSO THINK THAT ANYTHING THOSE CONCERNS WOULD NEED TO BE RESTATED IF AT ANY POINT IN THE FUTURE, AN ACTUAL ZONE CHANGE CAME THROUGH.

BUT I JUST FROM MY OWN KNOWLEDGE OF THE AREA AND HAVING LITERALLY GROWN UP THERE, NOT LIKELY. SO I JUST WANT HOPEFULLY THAT WILL ABATE SOME OF YOUR CONCERNS. BUT AFTER HAVING SAID THAT, I WOULD ALSO INVITE A LESLIE SAUCEDA TO COME UP AND SPEAK IF YOU WOULD LIKE.

SIR, I'M NOT SCHEDULED TO SPEAK, BUT I AM THE EYE ON. SIR, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M GOING TO GIVE HER THE CHANCE TO COME SPEAK, AND WHEN. WHEN I HAVE GONE THROUGH THOSE WHO HAVE SIGNED UP, I WILL DEFINITELY OPEN IT UP FOR YOU TO COME SPEAK AS WELL. OKAY. I THINK I CAN SAVE US A LOT OF TIME BECAUSE THIS IS WHERE THE SIGN WAS PLACED ON MY PROPERTY. OKAY, WELL, THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING WE CAN, BUT THANK YOU. NAME AND ADDRESS, PLEASE. I'M LESLIE SAUCEDA, I'M AT 1711 NORMANDIE LANE. I THINK YOU HAVE ANSWERED A LOT OF OUR QUESTIONS.

HONESTLY, WHEN WE GOT THE LETTER, I THINK THERE WAS SOME UNCERTAINTY ON WHAT IT MEANT.

IF IT TRULY IS JUST MOVING THAT PLOT LINE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT OPPOSED TO THAT. LIKE THOSE WHO SPOKE BEFORE ME, IT'S IT'S THE ISSUE IF WE WERE TO REZONE. SO I GUESS MY QUESTION FOR Y'ALL IS, WOULD WE GET THE SAME NOTIFICATION IF THERE WAS A REZONING PROCESS? WOULD IT BE THE SAME THING WHERE WE COULD COME SPEAK TO IT? OKAY. YES, I THINK THAT WAS ONE OF THE CONCERNS. YOU KNOW, IS THIS GOING TO BE A WAY THAT SOMEHOW WE GET REZONED AND WE DON'T KNOW IT? SO I THINK OUR MAIN PURPOSE WAS JUST TO HAVE ON RECORD OUR CONCERNS WITH THE FUTURE USE OF THE LAND, OVERCROWDING, RESIDENTIAL DENSITY, INFRASTRUCTURE, WILDLIFE. WE HAVE LITTLE FAMILIES OF SKUNKS AND FOXES AND CATS, AND WE ALL LIVE SO HAPPILY TOGETHER AND WE JUST WANT TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. SKUNKS. OKAY, I KNOW YOU WOULD THINK WE WOULDN'T LIKE THEM, BUT THEY'RE PRECIOUS, HONESTLY, AND THEY LEAVE US ALONE. AND JUST THE CHARM OF VILLA PARK. I'M FROM LUBBOCK. I MOVED HERE AND IT JUST DIDN'T QUITE FEEL LIKE HOME. AND THEN WE FOUND THAT HOUSE ON NORMANDY, AND IT JUST CLICKED. AND WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR FIVE YEARS. AND I THINK PART OF THAT CHARM IS WE ARE ON THE EDGE. YOU KNOW, IT'S QUIET. WE KNOW WHO SHOULD BE ON THE BLOCK AND WHO SHOULDN'T. I MEAN, WE ALL LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER. SO I JUST WANT TO PROTECT THIS SAFE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE HAVE WITH PROPERTY VALUE, ALL THE THINGS. TRAFFIC WOULD DEFINITELY BE A BIG CONCERN IF WE HAD THROUGH STREETS. SO WE'LL REITERATE THIS AGAIN IF IT EVER COMES UP. HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T, BUT WE JUST WANTED IT ON RECORD THAT THAT'S OUR OPPOSITION. AND BEATRICE HAS BEEN SO LOVELY AND ANSWERING ALL OF OUR QUESTIONS. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK ON THIS. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. ALL RIGHT. I HAVE A CORBY KNIFING.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME SPEAK. OKAY. IT'S BEEN NOTED. ALL RIGHT. I DON'T HAVE ANYONE ELSE THAT'S CURRENTLY HERE. BUT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME SPEAK AT THIS TIME, YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME. IF YOU'LL PLEASE COME TO THE MIC TO GET UP THERE, I THINK I CAN MAKE MYSELF HEARD.

OKAY, BUT I OWN PRESENTLY 15 ACRES OUT THERE AND I'VE OWNED IT FOR 50 YEARS. IT'S MY HOMESTEAD AND THIS IS MY DAD. THIS IS THE OTHER PART OF THE DEAL. THIS IS HIS STUFF. AND THAT'S MY RIGHT. OKAY. SO IF YOU DRIVE BY, I HAVE FIVE ACRES THERE TO THE NORTH OF THE LAND THERE. AND THE SIGN WAS PLACED ON THAT FIVE ACRES. AND TO THE CASUAL OBSERVER, IT LOOKS LIKE THAT I WAS GOING TO DEVELOP THAT PROPERTY. AND THAT IS NOT THE CASE. THE ONLY WAY THAT PROPERTY WILL EVER DEVELOP IS IF I DIE. I KNOW WHAT I'M. WHICH IS A LONG WAY AWAY. WE

[00:15:04]

ALL HOPE. AND SO YES, I THANK YOU FOR FOR CLEARING THAT UP. HOPEFULLY, THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE HERE AND IN THE AUDIENCE HERE NOW, YOU'VE GOT REALLY KIND OF THE THE THOUGHT BEHIND IT ALL.

BUT I DO THINK THAT'S IT'S, IT'S PRETTY COMMON FOR THOSE WHO ARE LOOKING TO SELL THEIR, THEIR PROPERTY TO GO AHEAD AND GET IT LOOKED AT AND MAKE SURE THEIR PROPERTY LINES ARE ACCORDING BECAUSE YOU WOULD HATE FOR SOMEBODY TO COME IN AND BUY THE PROPERTY AND GO, OH, WELL, I ACTUALLY OWN ALL THIS ACCORDING TO THE. SO IT SEEMS LIKE THAT'S THE ALL THAT'S GOING ON HERE. ANYTHING ELSE? ANYONE ELSE THAT WOULD LIKE TO COME AND SPEAK AT THIS TIME? ALL RIGHT. I'M NOT SEEING ANYONE AS THE APPLICANT. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY? NO, I OH, NOT AT ALL. WE HAVE TWO APPLICANTS. HE'S APPLICANT TO JASON. THE ONLY THING THAT WE'RE REALLY ALTERING TO LET YOU KNOW IS JUST RIGHT HERE. BECAUSE MY PROPERTY LINE DOESN'T FOLLOW THE DRIVEWAY. JUST EXACTLY. THAT'S ALL WE'RE DOING IS JUST WE'RE CHANGING THIS PROPERTY LINE JUST RIGHT HERE. NOTHING ON THE BOUNDARIES, NOTHING TO DISTURB ANYBODY ELSE. MAY I POINT TO MY PROPERTY UP THERE? THIS. THIS WOULD BE. ON THE IRS.

YEAH. RIGHT THERE. THAT'S ALL MY PROPERTY. IT IS NOT GOING TO BE DEVELOPED. THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION. ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME, I WILL GO AHEAD AND CLOSE OUR PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL GO TO THE COMMISSION. CAN I FIRST ASK STAFF IF THERE'S ANY WAY, LIKE IF THEIR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. I KNOW GOING FORWARD IT GETS REVIEWED. IS THERE A WAY THAT THE PUBLIC CAN INPUT INTO THAT PROCESS? AND IF THERE'S NOT OR IF THERE IS, MAYBE THAT'S WHERE THEY CAN, YOU KNOW, VOICE THEIR CONCERNS WITH THAT THAT ZONING ISSUE. I BELIEVE THEY'RE REVIEWING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AT THE MOMENT, BUT I'M NOT SURE ABOUT NOTICES. I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE NOTICES. I THINK WHEN THE. THEY ARE LOOKING AT HAVING THE THE COMP PLAN REVISED AND LOOKED AT BY SOME THIRD PARTIES. AND AS I UNDERSTAND IT, PART OF THAT PROCESS WILL BE TOWN HALL MEETINGS AND THAT SORT OF THING. SO IT IT MIGHT NOT BE INDIVIDUAL LETTERS, BUT MUCH LIKE WE DO FOR BONDS OR THINGS LIKE THAT, WHERE THEIR TOWN HALL MEETINGS THAT ARE IN DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS AND PEOPLE CAN COME AND ATTEND, THAT WOULD BE OPEN FORUM. AND THEN PEOPLE WOULD BE ALLOWED TO SPEAK AND CONTRIBUTE IN THAT WAY. SO MAYBE THAT'S ANOTHER OPTION WHERE YOU CAN VOICE YOUR CONCERN AND YOUR YOUR OPPOSITION TO THAT BE NOTIFIED OF IT WOULD PROBABLY ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE, WOULD YOU PROBABLY HAVE TO KIND OF LOOK AT IT THAT WAY. LIKE SHE SAID, THERE PROBABLY WON'T BE INDIVIDUAL LETTERS, BUT YOU CAN PROBABLY JUST KEEP AN EYE ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE OR ON THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AS WELL. OH, IN THE NEWSPAPER AS WELL, RIGHT. YEAH. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. SO FOR JUST FROM MY OWN AND IF ANY OF STAFF WOULD LIKE, LIKE TO INTERJECT, PLEASE DO. BUT WHEN THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WAS REWRITTEN SEVERAL YEARS AGO, PROBABLY CLOSE TO TEN YEARS NOW, 2016, THAT'S THE LAST TIME.

OKAY, SO WE ARE GETTING CLOSER TO TEN. BUT YEAH, 2018 IS WHEN THAT WAS REWRITTEN. AND WE DID HAVE A THIRD PARTY THAT CAME AND THEY LOOKED AT ALL OF THE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WERE GOING ON IN MIDLAND AND THEY SAID, OKAY, YOU'VE ALREADY GOT THIS HERE, THESE GREAT THOROUGHFARES. OH, YOU KNOW, MOCKINGBIRD IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOING ALL THE WAY THROUGH. AND WE ALL KNOW THAT SOME THINGS ARE GOING TO GO ACCORDING TO THAT AND SOME THINGS THAT ARE NOT RIGHT. AND I'M PRETTY SURE THAT WITH MOCKINGBIRD BEING THERE JUST ON THE BACK SIDE, AS WELL AS THE POLO FIELDS BEING THERE, THAT FIRM DECIDED, WELL, IT'S GOT A LOT OF SPACE. THAT'S WHERE A LOT OF RETAIL COULD GO IN THE FUTURE. SO WE'LL JUST SAY THAT THAT'S PART OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AS WE THINK THAT AS THIS GROWS, WE CAN GO FROM A NEIGHBORHOOD AND TRANSITION INTO MAYBE SOME RETAIL AND SOME OTHER THINGS. OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS WERE, YOU KNOW, PROTECTED JUST BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY WHERE THEY ARE IN THE CITY. HERE'S WHERE ALL THIS GROWTH AND YOU'LL, YOU'LL NOTICE WHERE A LOT OF THE GROWTH IS HAPPENING IN MIDLAND FOR HOMES AND THINGS. IT IS TENDING TO GO ACCORDING TO THAT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS ALREADY THAT HAVE CHANGED AND ARE NOT HAPPENING ACCORDING TO THAT PLAN. AND SO THE WAY THE CITY AND THE PLANNING TAKES THAT INTO ACCOUNT IS IT'S MORE LIKE GUIDELINES. IT'S, HEY, THIS LOOKS LIKE THIS WOULD BE A GOOD PLACE TO GO. BUT BECAUSE OF THIS FACTOR OR THAT FACTOR, THAT'S NOT WHAT DEVELOPED. AND THAT'S OKAY. THAT CHANGES. THAT'S WHY THEY'RE PROBABLY

[00:20:05]

UPDATING. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS SAYING, HEY, SOME OF THE CHANGES THAT HAPPENED OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS MAKE MAKE IT ENOUGH THAT WE NEED TO CHANGE WHERE EVERYTHING IS BECAUSE WE SAID THIS WOULD BE RESIDENTIAL AND IT DIDN'T END UP BEING RESIDENTIAL OR VICE VERSA. SO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS LOOKED AT AS GOSPEL OR SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. IT'S MORE SO A WELL, IN 5 TO 10 YEARS, WE FEEL LIKE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WANT TO LIVE OUT IN THAT SPACE. AND THEN THEY DIDN'T FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER. AND THAT'S OKAY. SO JUST TO CLARIFY, THE TOWN HALL, LIKE US BEING INVOLVED IN THAT, WOULD THAT BE TO GIVE OUR OPINION THAT WOULD GO TOWARDS THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. BUT IF Y'ALL WERE ACTUALLY REZONING, IT WOULD BE IN THIS SAME FORM. YES. SO SO TOWN HALLS ARE A PUBLIC ASPECT. AND THERE THAT'S JUST A, HEY, WE WANT TO GIVE YOU OUR THOUGHTS AND WE WANT TO RECEIVE YOUR THOUGHTS. NOW, WHETHER THAT'S DONE THROUGH THE CITY, WHETHER THAT'S DONE FROM A THIRD PARTY, I THINK THAT'S UP TO THE FUTURE AND HOW THAT THAT ENDS UP GOING. BUT AS FAR AS A ZONE CHANGE OR ANYTHING THAT BECOMES RECORD, IT'S GOING TO COME THROUGH HERE AND EVENTUALLY GO TO CITY COUNCIL. SO JUST TO GIVE PEACE OF MIND, I'M SORRY, JUST A PEACE OF MIND IS EVEN IF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DOES GO THROUGH OR AS IT STANDS NOW, THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO CHANGE THIS ZONING, WHICH MEANS THEY CAN'T REDEVELOP AND PLOT THIS SMALLER BECAUSE YOUR MINIMUM OUT HERE IS TWO ACRES WITH AG, THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK THROUGH. YOU WOULD HAVE A PUBLIC NOTICE THAT'S REQUIRED BY STATE LAW FOR BOTH A REPLAT OR A REZONE OUT HERE.

YOU'LL GET A NOTICE FOR EACH OF THEM. OKAY. YEAH. CONSIDERED SEPARATELY. YEAH. DO YOU JUST NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE AGENDA? BECAUSE SOMETIMES REZONING I THINK THAT'S CHANGE.

IT GOES TO THE CITY ONLY NOW I'M NOT SURE WHAT THREE ZONES AND PLATS WILL COME THROUGH THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION. A REZONE WILL GO TO BOTH P AND Z AND TO CITY COUNCIL. AND EACH SEPARATE MEETING GETS ITS OWN NOTICE REQUIRED BY STATE LAW. YEAH. WITHIN 200FT OF ANY PROPERTY. SO YOU WILL RECEIVE A NOTICE ON THAT. THANK YOU. ABSOLUTELY. WELL, WE DO HAVE THE ITEM ON THE TABLE. WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO MAKE ANY MOTIONS. I'LL MOTION FOR APPROVAL. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM NUMBER 12. A SECOND AND A SECOND. ALL RIGHT. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL RIGHT. LET'S VOTE. MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU. THAT LEADS US TO

SECTION 12 BEING A REPLAT OF LOT ONE, BLOCK FOUR, SHEELER ADDITION CITY AND COUNTY OF MIDLAND, TEXAS, GENERALLY LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE INTERSECTION OF WEST GRIFFIN AVENUE AND FISHER STREET. AFTERNOON. CHAIRMAN.

COMMISSIONERS LORI ELLIOTT TO PRESENT ITEM 14. ITEM 14 ON THE AGENDA IS A PRELIMINARY PLAT SUBMITTED. EXCUSE ME BY LAND SURVEYING ON BEHALF OF JOE VASQUEZ FOR THE PROPERTY AT 1711 WEST GRIFFIN AVENUE IN DISTRICT TWO. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING TO PLAT 0.92 ACRES INTO SIX LOTS FOR FUTURE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED MH MANUFACTURED HOUSING DISTRICT. PROPERTIES TO THE NORTHEAST AND WEST ARE ALSO ZONED MH TO THE SOUTH. PROPERTIES ARE ZONED MH IN PART AND TPI TECHNOLOGY PARK DISTRICT IN PART. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY A SINGLE FAMILY HOME AND THE PROPOSED USE WILL BE FOR MORE LOTS WITH MANUFACTURED HOMES SURROUNDING. USES TO THE NORTH, SOUTH AND EAST ARE MOBILE HOMES AS WELL, AND TO THE WEST ARE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES. THIS IS A SITE PHOTO OF THE PROPERTY FROM WEST GRIFFIN LOOKING SOUTH. TALL CITY TOMORROW DESIGNATES THE AREA AS IRM URBAN RESIDENTIAL MEDIUM AND THE SUPPORTED USES ARE RESTRICTIVE LAND USE, EMPHASIZING A MIX OF HOUSING STYLES TO INCLUDE DETACHED, DETACHED AND TOWNHOMES. WE DO ULTIMATELY RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST WITH THE FOLLOWING STANDARD CONDITIONS. THANK YOU. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. ANYTHING FOR STAFF. IS THIS INSIDE OR OUTSIDE CITY LIMITS? THIS IS INSIDE CITY LIMITS IN DISTRICT TWO. OKAY. ARE SOME OF THESE GOING TO BE DEVELOPED FOR MOBILE HOMES OR ARE THEY ALL RESIDENTIAL? BUT MY UNDERSTANDING IS THEY'RE ALL MOBILE HOMES. ACTUALLY, I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO BE STICK FRAMED. OKAY. SINGLE FAMILY HOME. MY APOLOGIES. OKAY. ARE WE GOING TO HAVE TO DO A REZONING FOR THE FIVE FOOT SETBACK FROM LOT FOUR TO LOT? THERE IS CURRENTLY A SPECIAL EXCEPTION BEING RUN THROUGH THE PROCESS. IT JUST GOES TO CITY COUNCIL ONLY AND NOT PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION. OKAY, I APOLOGIZE, I SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED THAT IN ONE OF MY SLIDES. AND THEN ALSO, I MEAN, JUST BEING A BUILDER MYSELF THAT LOT, I MEAN, STANDARD SETBACKS ARE GOING TO TAKE TEN FOOT OFFSET LOT. LOT FOUR IS ONLY 30 FOOT WIDE. I KNOW IT'S A REALLY DEEP LOT, BUT IT'S A PRETTY SKINNY HOUSE GOING ON THERE. THAT'S WHY I WAS WONDERING IF IT WAS ONLY GOING TO BE FOR MOBILE HOMES. BECAUSE DO YOU WANT ME TO ADDRESS. YEAH, IF THAT THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING FOR WHEN WE. OKAY. BETTER THAN I CAN. ALL RIGHT. IS THERE ANYTHING ANY OTHER QUESTIONS THAT WE HAVE FOR LORI? THANK YOU. YES, SIR. ALL RIGHT. AT THIS TIME I'LL ASK THE APPLICANT TO COME. COME AND SPEAK AND SEE MAYBE ANSWER SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE OR THAT WE HAVE RATHER. GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS PALADIN HUCKABEE 710 OSAGE. SO JUST TO ADDRESS THOSE QUESTIONS. VERY GOOD. I MEAN, THAT'S A THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION.

OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING THAT WAS INVOLVED IN OUR DISCUSSIONS WITH THE BUILDER. I BELIEVE THEY REDEVELOPED THAT EXISTING RESIDENCE ON THE ON THAT PROPERTY, PROBABLY OVER THE PAST 5 TO 8 YEARS, I'VE TALKED TO 10 OR 15 PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN THIS AREA. AND, YOU KNOW, THERE'S SOME EXISTING PROPERTIES AND DEVELOPING AROUND IT, INFILL AND RESIDENTIAL THERE. SO THESE GUYS ARE LOOKING TO OBVIOUSLY FIT AS MANY LOTS AS THEY CAN GET ON THIS ACREAGE. THAT'S HOW IT WORKS. SO TO ADDRESS THE QUESTION OF HOW NARROW THAT LOT IS, IT CERTAINLY IS THE THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION THAT'S GOING TO BE PUT IN FRONT OF COUNCIL WILL ACTUALLY BE FOR THAT NORTHERNMOST LOT ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER, AS WELL AS THAT INTERIOR LOT. SO 30 FOOT WIDE, NOT A LARGE FOOTPRINT. THEY'VE GOT SOME FLOOR PLANS THAT FIT THAT. AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE ARCHITECT THAT IS INVOLVED WITH THIS BUILDER JUST BUILT A HOME. OH GOSH, RIGHT OFF A GOLF COURSE THAT IS A VERY SIMILAR KIND OF SHOTGUN

[00:30:03]

STYLE, LONG, DEEP, NARROW HOME. SO I REALIZE THAT THAT IS THAT THAT IS RATHER NARROW. THEY'RE CONFIDENT THAT THEY'VE GOT A FLOOR PLAN THAT WILL FIT. OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS ALL ZONED FOR MANUFACTURED HOMES ANYWAY, WHICH, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN SATISFY WITH A VERY NARROW STRUCTURE. SO WHETHER AND I BELIEVE THAT THIS THIS IS OPEN TO CONVERSATIONS WITH STAFF AS WELL. WE HAVEN'T REALLY OPENED IT UP. THIS IS THEIR PREFERRED LAYOUT, BUT IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO ADD WIDTH TO THAT INTERIOR LOT THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. BUT IT WOULD OBVIOUSLY LESSEN THE DEPTH OF THE CORNER LOTS ON GRIFFIN. SO IT'S KIND OF, YOU KNOW, SIX AND A HALF, SIX OF ONE HALF DOZEN OF THE OTHER. SO IF THAT HELPS ADDRESS YOUR QUESTION A LITTLE BIT.

OKAY. YEAH. ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT FOR STAFF. OKAY. SO WHAT IS I SEE THAT THE ONE ONE OF THE CONDITIONS IS THAT A SPECIAL EXCEPTION ALLOWING THE PROPOSED LAW DIMENSION. SO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE REQUIREMENT LAW DIMENSIONS VERSUS THE EXCEPTION THAT WE'RE GOING TO. SO WE DON'T HAVE THE EXACT MEASUREMENTS YET. WE'RE STILL REVIEWING THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION WHICH IS GOING TO SAY HOW MUCH THE PROPOSED LOT DIMENSIONS ARE VERSUS HOW MUCH THEY SHOULD BE. AND THAT DOES GO TO CITY COUNCIL FOR APPROVAL.

OKAY. BUT THAT WOULD WITH THIS BEING A PLAT, RIGHT? YES. SO THE MH STANDARDS, THE REQUIREMENT FOR AN INTERIOR LOT IS GOING TO BE A 50 BY 100. AND SO THEY'RE DOING A SPECIAL EXCEPTION, IT SOUNDS LIKE TO 30. SO FOR A 20 FOOT DIFFERENCE. AND THAT HAS TO BE APPROVED BY COUNCIL. BUT BUT FOR NOW. SO IT'S A A TEN FOOT THEN. YEAH. SO FOR, FOR NOW THOUGH I GUESS WE THIS IS THIS IS ALL GOING TO ASSUME THAT THAT EXCEPTION ONE IS WRITTEN FOLLOWING THIS PLAT PRELIMINARILY AND THEN THAT, THAT, THAT EXCEPTION DOES GET ACCEPTED BY COUNCIL. CORRECT.

IF THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION WERE TO NOT BE APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL, THEN THAT WOULD THIS PLAT WOULD ESSENTIALLY BE NULL AND VOID. YES. OKAY. AND THIS IS JUST A PRELIMINARY PLAT. SO THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION HAS TO BE APPROVED BEFORE THE FINAL. CORRECT. THAT MAKES SENSE. I DON'T KNOW. IT WILL BE CONVENIENT TO HAVE IT ON THE FILE. THE EXACT DIMENSIONS THAT THEY'RE PROPOSING BEFORE WE APPROVE THAT. THAT WOULD BE ON THE ON THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION.

YEAH. AND THEY THEY DO HAVE THE DIMENSIONS AS PART OF THE PACKAGE ON HERE. SO THAT THOSE THOSE ARE ON THE DRAWINGS. BUT YEAH, AND THE FINAL PLAT STILL GOT TO COME TO US ANYWAYS. YES, THE FINAL PLAT WILL STILL COME THROUGH US AND ONLY IF THE SPECIAL EXCEPTION IS APPROVED.

CORRECT. OKAY. SO. ALL RIGHT, WELL THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. SO WE HAVE HEARD FROM THE APPLICANT. IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THIS REQUEST SEEING NONE. IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO IS OPPOSED OR WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION? SEEING NONE, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE WILL GO TO THE COMMISSION. I'LL MOTION TO APPROVE. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THIS REQUEST FROM COMMISSIONER OLDFIELD. SECOND, SUBJECT TO THE SPECIAL EXCEPTIONS. ALL RIGHT. YES, YES. AND WE HAVE A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER MARTIN. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? OKAY. THEN WE CAN VOTE. MOTION
