Mr. Rod Tyler, City Planner, advised the Commissioners that this property has been zoned C-2 (Community Business District) but the applicant is proposing PD (Planned Development - single family dwellings with smaller lots) . He stated the proposed minimum lot sizes would be 5,000 square feet. The applicant will be fencing the property along North Main Street with a 6` high masonry wall and along Bear Creek Chive he is proposing a 6' high cedar panel fence with brick columns located every three panels. Mr. Tyler advised the Comaissioners that staff has reviewed the proposal and there is a demand for this type of housing, but does recommend the R-1 zoning. Mr. Ernest Gatewood, 1845 Woodall Rodgers Freeway, Dallas, advised the Commissioners that there is a demand in this area for homes between the $90,000 to $130,000 price range. He stated the homes will have smaller lots but will average 1,60+0 square feet in structure size. There will be landscaping around the proposed fence walls on Bear Creek.

(cont. ) 192-11-ZC - CONSIDER THE REQUEST OF THE HOODS/EULESS J.Y. , ERNEST GATEWOOD III, FOR A CHANGE OF ZONING FROM C-2 (COMMUNITY BUSINESS DISTRICT) TO PD (PLANNED DEVELOP14ENT - SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED, SMALL LOTS); MORE GENERALLY DESCRIBED AS BEING ON THE S€3iDTHWEST CORNER Of BEAR CREEK DRIVE AND NORTH MAIN STREET Chairman Hill asked for any other proponents. There being none, Chairman Hill asked if there were any opponents. There being none, he closed the public hearing and asked for discussion among the Commissioners. There was some concern as to why Mr. Brodsky wanted to keep the C-2 property to the north and south. Mr. Brodsky stated he was keeping the property to the south because Mid-Cities would eventually be expanded and the property to the north would be an excellent day care facility since there is an elementary school located to the west. The Commissioners were also concerned with the street access and felt there would be problems accessing onto Forth Main Street. They suggested that the entrance into the proposed addition come off of Bear Creek Drive or possibly from Mid-Cities Drive, or make both entrances into the proposed addition from Bear Creek Drive. Mr. Brodsky stated that the property south of the proposed addition is in a flood plain and a cut through street could not be built within this area. He also stated that his property is heavily encumbered with liens and hopefully the Commission can work with Mr. Gatewood and himself on this proposed addition. Commissioner Tyson moved to deny Zoning Case #92-11, request of Ernest Gatewood III, for The Woods/Euless J.V. Commissioner Young seconded the motion and the vote was as follows: Ayes: Commissioners Tyson, Young, Zahn and Hill Nays: Commissioners Maloney and Deithloff NOTE: Commissioners Maloney and Deithloff both stated they felt the project could be worked out. Chairman Hill declared the motion carried and advised the applicant that this case could still be presented to City Council for consideration.
