Mike Collins stated the applicant was not available for questions due to the fact that they requested this case to be tabled until the next scheduled Planning and Zoning meeting on January 16, 2006. Chairman McNeese asked for any proponents/opponents to come forward for any comments. Gary Garretson, 703 W. Mills Drive, Euless, Texas, asked if all the houses were going to be two stories. Mike Collins stated with the lot size of 5,500 square feet these lots have to meet a minimum of 1,800 square feet so they would be two stories. Gary Garretson stated he was concerned with the two story houses because his property abuts the proposed development and he would have no privacy. Mike Collins stated if the proposed development was approved the two story houses would be permitted. There could be a possibility though that the commission recommends one story houses. Gary Garretson asked if the City of Euless intended to take the portion of his backyard that is dedicated to an easement. Mike Collins stated the easement that is platted within his lot will stay within his property. If this development were approved the developer would approach the homeowners and ask if they wanted a new fence constructed.

Mills Drive, Euless, Texas, stated he was concerned with the possibility this gated community would block traffic on S. Pipeline Road W. Mike Collins stated the call box for this development would have to be thirty feet from the property line therefore it should not affect the flow of traffic on S. Pipeline Road W. Mike Collins asked Chris Barker in the negotiations with the City of Fort Worth to reconstruct S. Pipeline Road W. and whether they will be adding to the pavement width. Chris Barker stated the general width will remain the same but the width does vary along S. Pipeline Road W. at the moment and will be more uniformed. There have been discussions though to widen the road on the South end and specifically adjacent to the private school. Chairman McNeese closed the public hearing.
