ITEM 2 CASE #02-01-PP— CONSIDER A PRELIMINARY PLAT

Chairman McNeese asked if the applicant or representative was present and to
come forward for comments.
Terry Sandlin, 5137 Davis, Blvd., N. Richland Hills, stated he would like to
request a modification on the wording in the notes. There is a provision that
discusses noise sensitive uses would be built to a 25 db reduction which is fine,
but it also states that properties in Noise Zone B which is no longer in Zone B
according to FAA. He stated he would like to eliminate that this development is
in Zone B.
Vice Chairman Grove asked the staff if this was necessary at the Preliminary Plat
stage.
Mike Collins stated that this will be resolved whether at this stage or before the
final plat is recorded. From what has been represented from DFW Airport the
consequence of the verbiage included on the plat that identifies this as either
Noise Zone A or Noise Zone B does not have any direct impact on the reduction
of the 25 db. The language Mr. Sandlin is proposing accomplishes this.
However, we would need to request information from the City Attorney to
determine the consequences of changing the ordinance.
Vice Chairman Grove made a motion to approve case #02-01-PP as submitted.
Commissioner Hughes seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:
Ayes: Chairman McNeese, Vice Chairman Grove, Commissioners Huffman and
Hughes.
Nays: None
Abstention: None
The motion carried (4-0-0).
