• Mark Lawson, 1607 Oak Lane, Euless, TX stated that the replat was to move the
boundary line between lots 14 and 15 to the west to create lot 14 being approximately
one (1)acre and lot 15 becoming three (3) acres.
Chairman McNeese opened the public hearing.
Melody Moore, 2208 Cottonwood, Bedford, TX stated that her and her husband were in
favor of the replat because they were wanting to purchase the lot.
Toby Johnson, 604 Dogwood Circle, Euless, TX stated she was not opposed to the
replat but had some questions. She was wanting to know if there were any restrictions
against any outbuilding that would be built on the new property that would be in
violation of the restrictions on the land usage and in as how far they can build
to the property lines. Mike Collins, Director of Planning and Development, stated that if
they proposed to build an accessory building then it will conform to the City's minimum
standards. To date there has been no submission of any site plan that would either
identify where the primary structure will be nor any accessory buildings. Ms. Johnson
asked where the egress or ingress be for the property. Mike Collins stated it will be
located off of Ash Lane. Ms. Johnson stated she understands that any outbuilding can
not be closer than three (3)feet to the existing property lines and for every foot in
height that it goes up it has to be moved inward another two (2) feet. So the minimum
for the three (3)foot line is eight (8)feet. Mike Collins stated that he would look that
information up in the code book to show Ms. Johnson. Ms. Johnson asked what the
restriction for livestock was for Euless. Mike Collins stated that if there were any areas
that were grandfathered before any of the zoning took place that would be a different
situation. Currently there would be one (1) livestock per acre of land. Ms. Johnson
asked if there was a restriction that you can not build within ten (10) feet of the
easement. Mike Collins stated that you can not build a permanent structure on top of
the easement. There is no distance restriction from the easement.
Marilyn Adgar, 603 Dogwood Circle, Euless, TX asked how the lot would be divided
once it has been replatted because the lot backs up to her fence line. Ms. Adgar was
given a copy of the replat plans for an explanation.
