ITEM 3 CASE #11-11-SUP — HOLD PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING A
SPECIFIC USE PERMIT AND CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR
AN ORDINANCE
Receive public input regarding a request for a Specific Use Permit on
Alexander & Cullum Addition, Lots 20, 21 and a portion of 22, for a
Religious Worship Place in Texas Highway 10 Multi-Use District (TX-10)
zoning, and consider a recommendation regarding an Ordinance. This
property is located on 104 Cullum Drive.
Chairman McNeese opened the public hearing.
Mike Collins, Director of Planning & Economic Development, gave a brief description of
the case. The Gurudwara Sikh Sangat is currently located at 1400 W Euless Blvd and is
seeking to develop this site as a new place of worship. The project would include the
construction of an 18,191 square foot building which would be used as the place of
worship, kitchen and dining area, classrooms and offices. The square footage of the
worship area is 4,450 square feet. There is no fixed seating. Based on each person
taking up seven square feet within the 4,450 square worship area, there could be up to
636 worshippers. Using a parking ratio of 1 per 4 persons of occupancy, the required
number of parking spaces is 160.
A Specific Use Permit is required for places of worship within the TX-10 zoning district
and is being considered in order to evaluate the ability to adequately provide street
access and parking for use of the site. If approved, a detailed site plan showing final
designs and engineering will be submitted in the future by the applicant. A replat of the
property will also be required. Building permits and construction plans will be reviewed.
Exhibit plans submitted with the SUP indicates a right-in only access from SH 10 and a
primary access to Cullum Drive, which would enable drivers to utilize the existing SH 10
median cut for westbound movement on SH 10.
As per the requirements of the TX-10 zoning district, the site contains a ten (10') foot
landscape buffer from the adjacent residential property to the south. An existing
masonry wall, constructed with the residential development further enhances this buffer.
The building elevation contains dome elements consistent with traditional Sikh
architecture. The primary building height at the parapet level of twenty-five (25') feet is
compliant with the height restrictions of the zoning district. The primary dome at forty-
four (44') feet is allowed through Section 84-130 (1) of the Unified Development Code
which specifically exempts church spires and belfries from the height restrictions of the
zoning ordinance. The building will be of a true-stucco masonry structure.
The parking provided meets the UDC requirements and is consistent with approvals
granted to other places of worship.

comments.
The applicant, Mr. Bhupinder Walia, 235 American Way, Arlington, TX, came forward
to share with the Commission that the Gurudwara Sikh Sangat had been in Euless for
11 years. He stated:
• They do not have enough adequate classroom space for Sunday morning
classes.
• They do not have adequate parking; 60 spaces onsite with overflow next door
(Restoration Church).
• They will spend more than a million dollars to build a nice location with nice
landscaping.
• It will add to the property value in that area.
Chairman McNeese asked if there were any other proponents/opponents. Seeing none
the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Tompkins stated that he has lived around the corner from Gurudwara
Sikh Sangat and that they had been good neighbors. He also asked Mr. Walia what the
hours of operation will be for the new location.
Mr. Walia stated that the hours would be from 10:30a until 1:30p on weekends. In
particular on Sundays for regular worship service.
Commissioner Portugal also stated that Gurudwara Sikh Sangat was a good neighbor
and wished them well on this project. She stated that based on the information it

project.
Mr. Walia stated that they had already raised the cash to purchase the land and that
they were ready for this project.

PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AND CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION
REGARDING AN ORDINANCE
Receive public input regarding a request for Planned Development to
change the zoning of, 3.759 Acres, including Tracts 3A01, 3A04, and
3A07; out of the Allen M. Downen Survey, Abstract No. 415, 1203 West
Euless Boulevard, from Texas Highway 10 Multi-Use District (TX-10) and
Community Business District (C-2) into Planned Development (PD), and
consider recommendation for an Ordinance.
Mike Collins, Director of Planning & Economic Development, gave a brief description of
the case. Mr. Chesney, owner of B&B Wrecking is requesting the rezoning of 3.759
acres from TX-10 and C-2 zoning to Planned Development Zoning in order to expand
his existing business operations area to the west. B&B Wrecking located to 1201 W
Euless Boulevard in 1995 after the city approved a Planned Development zone change
that allowed a wrecker service; auto/truck impound, container storage and self-storage
of RV's to operate from that site. B&B is seeking an extension of the original PD that
would apply the conditions of the 1995 zoning to the new property.
No buildings are proposed to be built on the additional property. The site will be
developed with a new metal fence with brick columns along the street frontage to
appear the same as the existing fencing. Along the western and southern boundaries, a
metal screening fence will be installed. There is a gate on the current west side of the
existing business site that will be used to access the new property to the west.
Landscaping will be installed along the street frontage that is compliant with the TX-10
zoning district regulations. A concrete drive approach will be installed and extended
beyond the primary gate to the site. The remainder of the site will be paved with
crushed concrete.
As with the existing business, the new development will contain a storage yard for
towed vehicles, RV's and cargo container storage, and equipment storage for the
business.
Page 5 of 14
Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes November 15, 2011
The Development Services Group reviewed the application and certified the PD for
consideration by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Commissioner Tompkins stated that the property is below street level and asked if there
were any plans to buffer the visibility from the street into the yard.
The applicant, Andy Chesney, 801 Overlake Court, Euless, said that the property has to
be built up (on the north end closest to Hwy. 10) so that the fence and grade will be
higher.
Vice Chairman Mennis stated that he has a concern that the property will be used as a
storage lot in the future.
Mr. Chesney stated that for the time being the property will be used as his other
property is being used now. He is requesting a zone change so that he can start
building the fence. Eventually he would like to have motor home storage since that is a
need in the City of Euless.
Commissioner Mennis stated that he has concerns about this not being the best use of
land with the building and direction the Commission wants for the Highway 10 area.
Mr. Chesney stated that his facility is nice and that he will continue to keep a high
standard for his properties. He has received beautification awards on several occasions.
He cannot sell parts or strip down cars, but he simply stores and the cars come in and
go out.
Commissioner Mennis asked how long they will store a vehicle.
Mr. Chesney stated that they have a policy of no longer than 90 days unless the vehicle
is part of an investigation or legal matter.
Commissioner Mennis asked how they handle the control of hazardous materials on
property with the crushed concrete.
Mr. Chesney stated that they do not have an issue with hazardous materials since the
fluids are spilled out at the accident or location of pick up. He also stated since they are
a storage facility and they do not work on vehicles they do not have a problem with
leaks.
Commissioner Brown asked Mr. Chesney to describe the access into the facility from
the new gate.
Mr. Chesney stated that it will be a locked gate initially. There is an existing fence on the
current west side that has a gate. When the business expands to the new property, the
gate will serve as the primary access to the new area.

SUP, Mr. Sosa is required to renew the SUP after one year of operation. During the
past year, the City of Euless Code Compliance officers have had to discuss violations of
the SUP on at least three occasions. There were instances that included storage of
materials and repairs to vehicles outside of the building. Mr. Sosa has been made
aware of these issues and has issued a letter stating that these issues have been
resolved with the City.
Mr. Sosa is requesting to continue operation of his business from the rear portion of the

ITEM 6 CASE #11-04-SP — CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR A SITE
PLAN
Consider a recommendation regarding a request for a Site Plan for Urban
Residential/Commercial Lofts proposed to be located at John H. Havens
Survey, Abstract 685, Lot 1 Block G, Lot 1, Block H, 2800 and 2801
Brazos Boulevard.
Stephen Cook, Senior Planner, gave a brief description of the case. JLB Partners is the
developer of 15.384 acres of urban loft residential to be located within the Glade Parks
development. The development will be a high end, rental community managed through
a single ownership. The developer proposes to construct sixteen buildings with 417
residential units. The average density of units over the development is 27 units to the
acre which is less than the maximum of 30 units to the acre as approved within the
Glade Parks Planned Development Ordinance.
In addition to the units, a leasing office, workout facilities, two swimming pools and
meeting spaces will be constructed with the development.
The goal of the Urban Residential/Commercial sub district in the PD ordinance was to
provide area for medium density residential housing that is street loaded to provide a
walk able streetscape environment. This arrangement is different than typical garden
style apartment communities which tend to be solely auto-oriented with buildings
clustered in the center and surrounded by parking. In contrast, the JLB proposed project
has the majority of the units facing public right of way along Brazos Boulevard and Red
River Drive. Common entrances to the street provide accessibility to the walking
environment for the residents of the community. The majority of parking is internal to the
site through open lots, garages attached to the units, and covered spaces. On-street
parking is also provided in accordance with the street sections provided in the PD
Ordinance.
The project will be heavily landscaped. Common areas will be provided with many trees.
There are several green areas which will have access for curbing dogs and picnic
areas. Easily accessible from the Urban Lofts, a park will be located at the northeast
corner of Brazos Boulevard and Red River. Public access areas along the streetscape
will include street trees and front landscape areas, as well as pedestrian enclaves
located between buildings. These enclaves will have typical street furniture including
benches and trash receptacles. Masonry fencing will be installed along Heritage Avenue
and the rear portion of the property facing future commercial development. Other areas
connecting buildings will be of steel tubular, wrought-iron style fencing with masonry
Page 9 of 14
Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes November 15, 2011
columns. Sidewalk/trails and additional landscaping along Heritage Avenue will provide
added green/walking space between the street and the residential buildings.
JLB Partners have provided color elevations of the proposed buildings. Combining
masonry products of true stucco and stacked stone, the exterior finish and colors are
compliant with the typical elevations and material choices as approved within the Glade
Parks PD Ordinance. Units will have balconies, transom windows, gabled roofs, balcony
roofs highlighted by decorative bracketing and standing seam metal roof elements. An
increased building height element with stone on all three stories will be located at the
north-west corner of Brazos Boulevard and Red River.
The Development Services Group has worked extensively with the developer to ensure
a product which is in compliance with the goals and regulations of Glade Parks Planned
Development ordinance. The DSG has certified the site plan and recommends
approval.
Commissioner Portugal asked if the developer had any other projects close by similar to
this project.
Mr. Cook stated that the developer has a similar urban loft project in the City of
Grapevine in which the ground floor is mixed use retail. It is of a high quality
construction.
Commissioner Tompkins asked if there were garage parking for the residents.
Mr. Cook explained that there were indeed garage parking for residents. Some of the
garage spaces were going to be tied to individual units, while others would be leased.
Additional parking would be provided behind the garage spaces as tandem parking.
Other spaces would be under metal roofs with masonry columns and finally there will be
spaces on the site as normal open parking.
Commissioner Mennis asked of the developer what he thought the timeline would be for
the development and construction of the project.
Mr. Paul Johnston of JLB Partners, 900 Lake Carolyn Parkway Suite 960, Irving Texas
stated that the timeline of development would be based on the scheduling and
construction of the public improvements and infrastructure. Initial construction would
begin on the Leasing Office and Amenities Center with several units. His company
would require approximately 60 days to start and then about 10 to 11 months to start
opening on a timed delivery schedule. Each building would be built in phases with the
total time period being 19 months from the start of initial construction.
Commissioner Mennis asked if the development was going to be built in phases.
Page 10 of 14
Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes November 15, 2011
Mr. Johnston stated that the whole project would be built, but each building would be
phased construction moving individual trades to each building in order to keep a
schedule.
Commission Brown asked how much street parking would be provided.
Mr. Cook responded that on-street parking would primarily be used as guest parking
and be designed in accordance with the requirements of the Glade Parks PD
Ordinance. There will be runs of four to five parallel parking spaces interrupted by
pedestrian crossings which will allow greater visibility of pedestrians from the street. In
addition, there will be changes in the pavement type which will alert drivers to the
crosswalk areas.
Mr. Johnston stated that all of the resident parking is accommodated interior to the
development.
Chairman McNeese asked the applicant to give him a ballpark figure about the rental
prices of the units.
Mr. Johnston stated that until the development was completed, rental rates would be
determined at that time, but an estimate would be that a one bedroom unit at 700
square feet would demand about $900 a month and a three bedroom unit at 1600
square feet would lease at $2000 per month.
Commissioner Portugal made a motion to recommend approval of Case #11-04-SP.
Commissioner Brown seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:
Ayes: Chairman McNeese, Vice Chairman Mennis, Commissioners Huffman, Portugal,
Tompkins and Brown.
Nays: None
Abstention: None
The motion carried (6-0-0)
ITEM 7 CASE #11-06-SP — CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR A SITE
PLAN
Consider a recommendation regarding a request for a Site Plan for Trinity
High School Activity Center proposed to be located at Midway Park
Addition, Lot 12, Block 45, 500 N Industrial Boulevard.
Stephen Cook, Senior Planner, gave a brief description of the case. Voters went to the
polls in May 2011 and approved bonds to be sold by the HEBISD that, among other
projects, would finance construction of two (2) new activity centers, one for each of the
Page 11 of 14
Planning & Zoning Meeting Minutes November 15, 2011
high school campuses. A site plan has been submitted by the HEBISD for development
of an 80,000 square foot activity center on the Trinity High School campus.
The new facility will placed within an area between the existing track/field and tennis
courts. The existing internal roadway network will be utilized. Minor extensions to
existing fire lanes will be made. The overall campus site exceeds the total number of
parking spaces required. In proximity to the new facility. Approximately ten (10) parking
places will be displaced and relocated to another area around the new facility. The
building will meet the 100% masonry standards and will be constructed out of a
combination of true stucco and split face concrete masonry unit block, with a standing
seam metal roof. No additional landscaping is required.
The new facility proposed for Trinity High School will be used by a variety of
extracurricular activities including athletic teams, band, drill team, physical education,
cheerleaders and color guard. The new facility includes space for locker rooms,
showers, weight rooms, laundry facilities, meeting space, and storage for multiple
programs. It will also include a 60-yard indoor turf practice field and a full outdoor turf
practice field that can both be used year round regardless of weather conditions.
The application is a modified submittal containing a site layout, building elevations, and
lighting plans. All other technical issues related to the utility and drainage improvements
have been submitted with the building construction plans and will be reviewed for
compliance with applicable codes.
Commissioner Mennis stated that based strictly on student interest why was this project
planned without any air conditioning.
The applicant, Tony Mancil, 4521 S Hulen, Fort Worth, TX, stated that the project has
been designed with large wind fans, ventilation and roll up doors to allow for cooling
purposes.
Commissioner Mennis stated that even with the fans he could not believe that air
conditioning was not a priority. He wants to make sure that the safety of the children is
a priority.
Commissioner Portugal stated that she is thrilled about the project and the building
taking place.
Commissioner Mennis asked when would the structure be built.
Mr. Mancil stated that the project would be bid within the next two months with
construction occurring during the summer of 2012. The facility could potentially be open
during the fall 2012 semester.
Commissioner Tompkins made a motion to recommend approval of Case #11-06-SP.
Commissioner Huffman seconded the motion. The vote was as follows:

ITEM 8 CASE #11-08-SP — CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION FOR A SITE
PLAN
Consider a recommendation regarding a request for a Site Plan for
Commercial Development proposed to be located at T. Jasper Survey, A-
861, Tract 5F01, 2101 W Airport Freeway.
Stephen Cook, Senior Planner, gave a brief description of the case. This project was
recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission and approved by
the City Council in November 2010. Section 84-386(1) of the Euless Unified
Development Code establishes that if development has not commenced within 12
months of approval the site plan expires, and a review and reapproval shall be required.
The applicant intends to construct a two-story structure to house retail jewelry and
precious metals sales.
A previous company had begun developing the site in 2007. A site plan was approved
and site improvements including water and sewer infrastructure and paving were
installed, but not accepted by the City. The new applicant, DFW Gold and Silver
Exchange, is applying to construct a different structure than previously approved. The
site improvements and infrastructure previously installed will remain substantially the
same, which the city will re-inspect.
The applicant intends to construct a two-story 6,290 square foot structure, featuring a
porte cochere extension over some of the parking immediately in front of the building.
Access to the site will be made from an existing drive (which meets City standards) from
the current frontage road to Airport Freeway. Staff has discussed with the applicant
several options to reconfigure the drive access once Airport Freeway is widened.
Although a final design of the SH 183 widening has not been presented, the applicant
has designed their site to meet parking and landscaping requirements based of the
expected amount of property that will be taken for the future highway expansion.
The proposed building's façade will be constructed with true stucco, which satisfies the
100% masonry standards of the Unified Development Code.
There are no modifications to the site plan from what was previously approved.
Page 13 of 14

The Development Services Group has reviewed the application and has found it
compliant with the standards of the Euless Unified Development Code. Staff
