Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes January 19, 2010
-- ITEM 2 CASE #09-07-RP – HOLD PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDER A
REQUEST FOR A REPLAT
Receive public input and consider a request for a Replat of The Enclave at
Wilshire Park Addition, Block A, Lots 5, 6, and 7 to The Enclave at
Wilshire Park Addition, Block A, Lots 5R and 7R in order to construct
Single Family Development. This property is located at 1602, 1604, and
1606 Wellington Drive.
Chairman McNeese opened the public hearing.
Chris Barker, Director of Planning and Development, gave a brief description of the
case. John F. Dickerson is the applicant requesting a replat of three existing single-
family residential lots within the Enclave at Wilshire Park subdivision. Approval of the
replat will result in the consolidating of the three original lots into two single-family
residential lots. The resulting two lots will be slightly larger in width (forty-eight (48') feet)
than the surrounding existing lots (thirty-two (32') feet). The primary reason for the lot
consolidation is to provide adequate setback distances between the zero lot line existing
structures on the block and the remaining lots to be constructed. The internal setback
distances providing seven (7') feet of setback clearance between the residential
structures is in compliance with the setback requirements of the Planned Development
zoning district creating the conditions of the subdivision. Because this is a replat of
residentially zoned property, Texas State Local Government Code and the City of
Euless Unified Development Code require a noticed public hearing prior to the approval
of this replat. Owners of property located within the original subdivision within two-
hundred (200') feet of the proposed replat have been noticed of the public hearing.
John Dickerson, 8333 Douglas Avenue Suite 1300, LB#712, Dallas, Texas, stated he
would stand by for any questions and respectively requests the Commission's approval.
Chairman McNeese asked for any proponents/opponents to come forward for any
comments. Seeing none the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Huffman asked if there had been any notice sent out for the public
hearing.
Chris Barker stated notice was sent to owners of property in the original subdivision
within 200' radius of the subject lots and notification to the newspaper was sent. Staff
did not receive any input in writing nor received any calls regarding this case.
Commissioner Zahn made a motion to approve case #09-07-RP. Commissioner
Portugal seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:
— Ayes: Chairman McNeese, Commissioners Zahn, Huffman, Portugal, and Mennis
