ITEM 1. FINAL PLAT #P-96-02 - VILLAGES OF BEAR CREEK
Request of Walter A. Elliott, Jr., for Ash Park Apartments, Ltd., for the final
plat of 12.528 acres out of the R. Crowley Survey, A-312, into Lot 1, Block
7, Villages of Bear Creek Addition; located on the northeast corner of East
Ash Lane and Fuller-Wiser Road
Commissioner Owens stated he would like to make the motion to refer Items I and II to
later in the meeting to see if someone would show up to represent the applicant.
Commissioner Bright noted the letter of notification to the applicant stated the meeting
date was printed as August 16, 1996 instead of August 6, 1996. However, the applicant
had been notified of the error and sent a copy of the correct agenda and correct date and
time prior to the meeting.
Chairman Young stated the approval of final plats is a ministerial function and it was not
necessary for the applicant to be present for approval of the final plat. He stated the City
Engineer had certified that the fees had been paid and the public improvements were in
place.
Commissioner Owens withdrew the motion.
Bo Bass, Director of Planning and Development, introduced the final plat to the
Commissioners and gave the location. He stated the final plat was consistent with the
preliminary plat that was approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission on May 2,
1995, and all applications, fees, certifications and monies due have been paid. He
stated the application had been review by DRC and was found to be consistent with the

submittal requirements and therefore, DRC recommended approval with the exception of
the avigation easement reflecting the same name as the signature on the ownership
certificate and that a call on the ownership certificate read "80' of right-of-way" instead of
" 80" of right-of-way".
Commissioner Zahn made the motion to approve the final plat#P-96-02 Villages of Bear
Creek subject to correcting the right of way width and making the name consistent in the
avigation easement. Commissioner McMillon seconded the motion. The vote was as
follows:
Ayes: Commissioners Zahn, McMillon, Bright, Shuler, Young
Nays: None
Abstentions: Commissioner Owens.
The motion carried.
ITEM II. PUBLIC HEARING TO NOTIFY OWNERS OF CERTAIN CHANGES TO
THE COMPREHENSIVE LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN.
Recommend approval of Resolution No. P&Z 96-01 to notify property
owners within the City of Euless regarding changes to the Comprehensive
Land Development Plan.
Bo Bass, Director of Planning and Development, stated the resolution directs staff to
commence with public notification procedures for all the areas noted in the sectors
discussed in pre-session. Mr. Bass also informed the Commissioners the Public Hearing
for the changes to the Comprehensive Land Development Plan and this meeting was not
a public hearing. The Chairman agreed and it was so noted for the record.
Chairman Young asked if there were any questions or comments from the Commissioners
regarding the pre-session discussion. Commissioner Owens asked if there was anyway
staff could attach an exhibit to the notification. Mr. Bass informed the Commissioners that
on all property owner notifications a map describing the area is attached. The
Comprehensive Land Development Plan map will be sent to all property owners within
200 feet of each area affected. The map will reflect all areas discussed by the
Commissioners and the only change would be the #2 area that will remain industrial and
therefore, not appear on the graphic.
Commissioner Shuler made the motion to approve P&Z 96-01, authorizing to mail
property owner notifications for the changes to the Comprehensive Land Development
Plan in Sectors 1 and 2, to include the deletion of the #2 area and for it to remain
