PUBLIC HEARING - ZONING CASE #326 - REQUEST OF ANDREW KIDD FOR CHANGE OF ZONING FROM C-2 & R-5 to PD (R-5) 23 U/A ON PORTIONS OF TRACTS 7, 7E1 & 7E2, J. P. HALFORD SURVEY, A-711, LOCATED EAST OF F.M. 157 AND SOUTH OF HARWOOD ROAD Chairman Deithloff stated the petitioner has requested that this zoning case be continued at the next P & Z meeting on January 6th because his development plan did not conform to zoning standards and had to be amended, and the revisions had not been made in time. However, because the property owners had been notified, Chairman Deithloff opened the public hearing and explained that the proponents would be heard first and then opponents. Mr. Andy Kidd, 601 E. Purnell, Lewisville, stated he has been working with City Staff and is in the process of making the required revisions to the development plan. He stated that, in general, they plan to build luxury apartments with a greater square footage than the required minimums. He further stated he would make a complete presentation at the next meeting. Chairman Deithloff then stated the Commission would hear from any other proponents or opponents. Mr. Tommy Daves, 908 Rockwall, voiced his opposition to this zoning change. He stated he was concerned that the entire C-2 tract would eventually become apartments. Mr. Flynn explained that since the development plan to be considered had not been presented yet, that the citizens should be given another chance to comment on the zoning request at the meeting when the development plan is presented. Mr. Eden made a motion to continue the public hearing for Zoning Case #326 on January 6, 1981, when the developer will present his proposed development plan. Mr. Tyson seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Ayes: Messrs. Eden, Tyson, Williamson, Gibson and Deithloff Nays: None Chairman Deithloff declared the motion carried.

RICHARD THOMES FOR CHANGE OF ZONING FROM R-1 TO R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5 ON LOTS 15 & 16, RAY SHELTON SUBDIVISION, LOCATED WEST OF FULLER-WISER AND SOUTH OF THE PROPOSED EXTENSION OF E. ASH LANE Chairman Deithloff opened the public hearing and explained that the propo- nents would be heard first and then opponents. Dr. Richard Thomes, 3934 Buckingham Drive, Irving, presented his request for change of zoning from R-1 to R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5 with the R-2 & R-3 zoning along Ash Lane and the higher densities toward the back of the property. Chairman Deithloff asked if there were any other proponents or opponents. There being none, he declared the public hearing closed. Mr. Tyson stated he did not like this plan as well as the CUD plan that was previously submitted. He was concerned over the possibility of over 300 units being constructed, which he felt was too dense. He also questioned whether the R-2 buffer would serve as well as the open space on the previous plan. He felt that it might if it were constructed first. After a lengthy discussion concerning the density and driveway cuts off of Ash Lane and Fuller-Wiser Road, it was noted that Dr. Thomes could, if he so desired, change his zoning request to a CUD in order to incorporate these safeguards. Dr. Thomes amended his zoning request and requested the Commission consider his amended zoning change from the proposed R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5 to CUD conforming housing for R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5, using the existing site plan submitted, limiting the density to 300 units and restricting curb cuts on Ash Lane and Fuller-Wiser Road. After additional discussion, Mr. Williamson made a motion to approve Zoning Case #325 as amended by Dr. Thomes from the proposed R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5 to CUD for conforming housing for R-2, R-3, R-4 & R-5, with the stipulations that there be no driveway cuts off of Ash Lane and Fuller-Wiser Road and that the density be limited to 300 units. Mr. Eden seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Ayes: Messrs. Williamson, Eden, Tyson, Gibson and Deithloff Nays: None Chairman Deithloff declared the motion carried.
