He also stated the request was in compliance with the recently adopted 1907 Comprehensive Land Development Plan. Mr. Bass informed Mr. Bryan, according to the City's perspective, the City did not know exactly what would be behind the Grubbs dealership. However, he stated through the Land Plan, the owner would show a conceptual drawing of what would be proposed. He stated the land plan currently shows a loose association of commercial buildings such as office related buildings. The land is currently limited to C-1 uses and there are a variety of uses permitted in the C-1 zoning district. Mr. Bass stated there was existing duplex property to the east and south side.

Bryan the City Engineer was not present at this meeting and some of his questions would need to be answered by him. Mr. Butler stated there were tentative plans to build some type of office building on the remaining land, possibly a medical office that would be multi-story. However, they have no definite plans on the drawing board. Commissioner Eggers stated there was some concern from the duplex owners to the south of the development. Their major concern was with the type of screening. Commissioner Eggers encouraged Mr. Butler to take a close look at providing a masonry screening fence. Mr. Butler stated he believed the plan were to construct a rnasonry fence. Commissioner Eggers stated he remembered the property Ding proposed before the Commission prior to this request and he thought this use was most appropriate. lie welcorned the project to Euless and stated he knew it was difficult to develop because of the drainage issues to be addressed. He also encouraged the applicant to continue working with the adjacent land owner. Commissioner"illon stated he was proud to see this property develop and felt it would be a high duality operation. He welcomed the business into Euless. CoonTr issioner Owens stated he agreed with the other Commissioners. However, he stated the water collection problems needed to be addressed. lie stated if the project created problems downstream and off-site water problem, it would not be worthwhile for the City.

S, Patel and stated the request was for a Specific Use Permit as outlined in order to sell the property to the automotive dealership.

Airport Freeray Mr. Bo Bass, Director of Planning and Development, stated the Development Review Committee had reviewed the thirteen points for approval and found it met all points of the PLANNING AND ZONING CONINSSION MEETING a PAGE SIX MARCH 18, 1997 criteria and therefore, recommended approval. Clark Butler infom-)ed the Commissioners he had been in negotiations with the adjoining property owner to obtain the land. he stated the negotiations were still open and asked Mr. Robert West if that was the case. Mr. West replied "from his clients standpoint, yes". Mr. Butler stated that everyone involved was a party to the solution and they were working very diligently with the City Engineer to overcome and resolve the water problem. CorT�nissioner Owens stated he had already made his comments. He stated the thing that bothered him was the people close to the south and to the east of the property. he stated when the Comprehensive Land Plan was reviewed, the citizens came before the Commission. His concern was what would be done with the back portion of the land. He asked the record to reflect what the applicant thought his concept would be for the property in the future. He asked if they were talking brick fences or what. He stated he knew he could not hold then dowry to anything, but he could get them on record for once and stated the Commissioners would be looking at them very close when they develop the back portion. He stated he could not vote for the request on what he had been sold so far. He stated it was a beautiful plan and good concept, but he was not sold on how it was benefitting the City that much on the overall plan. Con rnissioner Covens stated he was in a negotiating spot because one vote could make a difference. He stated he would not want to be a negative vote. However, he stated his concern was the possibility that the development of the back portion would not be desirable for the citizens that live behind the site. He asked Mr. Butler what his vision was. Mr. Butler stated they had sunk a lot of money in the project and they would not build a body shop or something of that nature behind Mr. Grubbs multi-rnillion dollar facility. Fie stated they would be selling high dollar cars and it would not further their development to build some type of junk. He stated his reasons were. Number one, the Commission would not allow it and number two, it would be fool hardy to do such a thing. He anticipated putting garden office buildings in that location with one building to 1 112 - 2 acres. Mr, Butler informed the Commissioners that Rod Tyler stated the fencing was within the scope of the code to put in a wood fence. however, he stated that would not behoove them and they planned on building a masonry fence. He emphasized they did not plan to dawn grade the overall development Commissioner teens asked Mr. Butler what would stop them from putting something in that was less dollar oriented in the back lot. Commissioner Cans stated if Mr. Grubbs owned the lot he would not be worried about it because Mr. Grubbs would not allow it. Comrnissioner Owens stated for the record, the people behind the proposed location had not been happy in the past with the proposed developments. PLANNING SAND ZONNG GG#VMSSION MEETING m PAGE SEVEN MARCH 18, 1997 Commissioner McMillon stated after reviewing the list of the C-1 uses, most approved uses would be compatible with the neighborhood. Commissioner McMillon stated the approved uses would protect the land owners and he would vote favorable for the Specific Use Peru, Corrvnissioner Eggers had questions regarding the bottom left hand portion of the drawing relating to fire coverage. Michael Logan, Fire Marshal, stated there were no structures in the small portion, with the exception of the car wash, that was not covered. Therefore; he stated he was satisfied and had no concerns. Commissioner Owens had questions regarding the materials of the four street lights. He stated City Standards were old white wooden poles with TU Electric lights. Mr. Bass informed the Commissioner the street lights would be constructed to meet City standards. They would be weather resistant all metal poles with lights. Mr. Butler stated there would be seven lights and they would not be wooden poles. Mr. Bass stated the construction plans would not be approved if the minimum City standards for street lights were not met. Commissioner ins stated the City Attorney had stated time and time again that "Site Plans were not a way of getting what is over the minimum standards and if a developer comes in at the minimum, they can put it in". He stated what he was trying to do is to let the applicant understand that the City does not like the minimums. He stated the lighting is getting to be a real serious problem around the City. He referenced Item Adequate Utilities and stated the word "adequate" was a large word. He encouraged everyone concerned with the project to took at the situations and correct them before it goes to the City Engineer for final approval. Chairman young stated although City Staff recommended approval based on the thirteen evaluation criteria, he felt the Commissioners needed to agree also. He stated the Adequate Utilities did encompass drainage and does cut across the property currently. It will be enclosed and continue across the adjacent property. He stated that Mr. Butler and everyone concerned with the project needed to work with City Staff,the City Engineer and to work with the property owner to the west. Commissioner Eggers stated if they passed this request, it would still be contingent upon the City Engineer and the two land owners getting the water run-off problem resolved. There would not be any construction permits issued until the City Engineer is satisfied. Although, Item#4 was not completely answered, Commissioner Eggers stated he was satisfied. Commissioner OAens made the motion to approve #97-01-SUP, Grubbs Infiniti Dealership contingent upon the City Engineer finalizing and making sure all item in the Specific Use Permit Criteria Evaluation be handled properly before any building perrrfts PLANNING AND ZONING COIV SSION MEETING a PAGE EIGHT MARCH 18, 1997 were issued.

Airport Fmemy Bo Bass, Director of Planning and Development, introduced the site plan request. He stated the site plan request was made by Jim Stephenson and was a ministerial function as long as the standards and codes v&-re maintained. The Development Review Committee had reviewed the request and recommended approval. Jim Stevenson 4433 Curerland, Fort Worth, Texas, represented Mr. Grubbs concerning the Site Flan request. He introduced Ms. Kitty Brinkerhoff, Manager of the Grubbs Infiniti in Fort Worth and stated she would be the manager of the dealership in Euless. He made himself available for questions from the Con ssioners. Corrn ssioner Owens stated he did not understand the private road and the turnaround at the cul-de-sac. Mr. Bass explained and pointed out the single entrance off SH 183 and the service road into the facility. He stated the private road would be built wording to City standards in width and thickness and the street lights would also be designed to city standards. Mr. Owens had questions regarding the road being extended to the back property at a later development date. Mr. Bass stated the road would be extended whenever Lot 2 was built out and Mr. Patel will own the land. Commissioner Owens wanted to make sure they were not approving anything that would encumber the City on building a street. Mr. Bass stated he was not aware of anything. Mr. Bass stated there had been discussions and questions regarding the possibilities of the street becoming a public road, however; he stated he did not see this happening. The road is too short and would not be a cost benefit. Corssioner Owens stated he would not be opposed to the Economic Development people determining it would be feasible to share the cost on the road with Mr. Grubbs. Chairman Young stated the flag portion of the lot would be designated an ass easement which would make it accessible to any of the adjacent property owners. Mr. Bass stated it would not be uncommon for a project that might develop to the west side to not have access to the private road PLANNING AND ZOMNG C IVMSSIQN MEETING - PAGE NINE MARCH 18, 1997 and that situation would not be a good one. Cor °iissioner Dams cautioned everyone that the bads portion of the property would be very important to the City. Commissioner Eggers had questions regarding the percentages of stucco,glass and other exterior finishes. Mr. Stevenson stated the percentages of stucco and other materials was developed with the idea there would be some architectural aluminum on the building. After the initial application was filed, they entertained the idea of any architectural type metal, therefore, the other is a Ob and the stucco should read 100%excluding windows and doors. Robert blest, Attorney, 301 Commerce, Fort Worth, Texas 76102, represented Mr. Richard Craig. Mr. Craig is the land owner of the 12 acre tract immediately to the west of the proposed site. He stated he was present to discuss the water/drainage problem and the issue relating to the street problem. Mr. idlest inforned the Cormnissioners his client was not opposed to the development of the Grubbs project and in fact very supportive of it because it would enhance the value of the adjoining property. They did not want to be left with a tract of land that could not be developed satisfactorily and be put on the tax rolls at a higher level than it presently is. He stated they had been in constant negotiations with Mr. Patel for the past six to nine months relating to the sale of his dient's 12 acres to Mr. Patel. He stated Mr. Charles Morley informed him that Mr. Patel would not be able to acquire the 12 acres because of size of the projects in which he is already involved. Mr. Est still viewed Mr. Patel as the most likely candidate to purchase the 12 acres. Mr. West stated there was a lot of water on his client's tract of land. Several of the creeks come together on that property and will require some Engineering to get rid of the problem and make the land developable and on the tax rolls at a level beneficial to the City. Mr. rest stated he was aware Joe Hennig, Assistant City Manager, talked with members of the City Council and the city is interested, perhaps, in working with the developer (whoever that maybe) of the 12 acre tract in helping to find money to assist in doing new drainage that would help solve some of the problems. Mr. 'fit stated he was appreciative of the City and it would be good for the City to continue. He stated his client was willing to shave a little off of the price so it could be sold. He said they matched the City°s offer in elect on money put toward the problem, however, Mr. Patel still cannot undertake the purchase of the property. Mr. VVest stated it was his understanding, that Mr. Patel's representative has said they were studying putting detention underneath so it would not discharge more water out than what is corning out now. According to the plans Mr. UUest saw, which he believed to be final plans, it showed it to be discharged across his client's property with some rip rap and some other things built to catch the water. He stated his client had not agreed to that yet. Fie stated they did not want to slow down the project, but they still need to reach a deal PANG AND ZONING COWSSION IVEETING - PAGE TEN MARCH 18, 1997 on the 12 awes. Mr. West had some concerns regarding the private street and asked if there was a possibility of making it a public street. He stated the Corrrrtission needed to understand, his property owner to the West, will be limited to a single entrance to a 12 acre site that is narrow on the front and deep back toward the park. He wanted, at least; emergency access to the road and possibly the City would make it a public road at a later date for mess into other developments. He stated with the current proposal of a private street is locking in his client's 12 acres, will limit their development and have a negative impact on the value of their land. Mr. West stated in the beginning there had been discussions regarding developing all 27 acres as one tract with a horseshoe shape street with two entrances. He asked for assistance on the tw® issues he presented to the Cor scion. Comr-nissioner Owens asked IVY. West if this was the first time (at this date) he was aware of the direction of drainage flow. Mr. West stated the plans have shown the drainage on the west side, but at a meeting on February 27, 1997, he was under the impression that Mr. Patel would redesign the drainage and not require any consent from his client. He thought the drainage would be taken care of on the 15 acre site and when the water carne out it would not require any rip rap or anything else. Mr. Butler stated the plan is as it was discussed on February 27, 1997 and the retention of the water will be on Mr. Patel's property and the velocity of the inter to Mr. Craig's property will be no greater than it is at present. He stated it was still under design with Mr. Patel's engineers in conjunction with the City Engineer. Mr. Writ stated the City Engineer was not available to assist him (at this date) with the drainage questions. Commissioner ins asked if by making the road a private street would it be dosing and/or land locking Mr. West's client from the back portion of his properly? Mr. West stated they could get across the drainage easement. Commissioner Covens stated they could get access across their property but he wanted to make sure they were not land locked. Chairman Young stated the correct term would not be street but rather "driveway". For the record, Chairman Young stated the Commissioners would be looking very closely at platting and how the easement would be placed in the panhandle. He personally felt if it were going to be an easement it should cover the entire panhandle and be a public mess easernenit. Chairman Young asked Men the access driveway would be constructed. Mr. Butler infom-ed the property owner, Mr. Bryan, the first phase would include the construction of the driveway with the looping of the waterline after the drainage structure was completed. The access driveway will terminate at the end of 60(Y and the cul-de-sac will be built with the driveway. Mr. Butler also stated they would build a pipe rail fence PLANNING AND ZONING COIVMSSION MEETING - PAGE ELEVEN MARCH 18, 1997 around the out-de-sac to prevent vehicles having access to the rear property and to prevent dumping. There will be a gate to allow aooess, however it will be locked. Cornrr�ssioner Eggers encouraged Mr. Patel, Mr. Butler and Mr. Craig to continue negotiations regarding the 12 acre adjoining property. He stated he would not want the this development to be halted because they could not get together, He reoonTrended possibly to share the cost of the access street, Mr. Butler stated they had offered that in the past.

He stated Service King Paint and Body has been established and operates under different concepts than a normal paint and body shop. He informed the differences included the appearance of the facility, operations, and the number of cars repaired annually. He stated they operate facilities that average 19,000 - 21,000 square feet and they have operated in Dallas, Texas for approximately 20 years. They employee over 200 ernployees across the metroplex and are locally owned and founded. He stated he had talked with City staff regarding the City's long term vision in the development of SH 121. He stated there would be no long term storage of vehicles and they construct masonry screening around their facilities. Mr. Murray infom-ed the Commissioners their research indicates there are only six repairers to service 105,079 consumers, which own and operate an estimated 104;343 vehicles. Therefore, the average ratio of vehicles to repair facilities in other markets they operate is 3,060 to 1 and at the proposed Euless site it is 17,333 to 1. This was demonstrated in a packet distributed to the Commissioners. He estimated the sales tax base would be$1.4 million dollars annually and real and personal property taxes of$13,000 annually. He also stated Service King uses local vendors and suppliers at each of its locations. Mr. V\Aley Harrington Hokett represented the Harrington family and stated he was a proponent of the request. He stated the Service King was the first group that had made a material offer on their land. Mr. Hokett informed the Commissioners there were normally Walmart and other major con? mercial Operations that developed next to the Service Kings.
