C (Page Two, Regular Meeting, Planning and Zoning Commission, September 6, 1977) ,. CONSIDER PRELIMINARY PLATTING - WESTPARK CENTRAL. (PROPERTY LOCATED EAST OF WESTPARK WAY AND NORTH OF TIBBETS DRIVE) Mr. Elliott stated he is with the firm Elliott and Hughes Engineering located at 1004 West Euless Blvd. and is representing the owner, Mr. Harry Hunsicker. A portion of the subdivision was earlier platted for a hotel , Hill-Rom and a general office building, with the remainder of the property remaining vacant. This is a preliminary plan showing Mr. Hunsicker's plans for development. He has a tenant at the present time for Tract 9, and Tract 3R-2R will be replatted as they are now in the process of negotiating for twenty to twenty-five additional feet for the purpose of a more desirable parking arrangement. There is nothing planned at the present time for Tracts 5, 6, 7, and 8. The preliminary plan shows the intended scheme he plans to follow and they will soon have a definite final plat on Tract 9 and the Westpark Court with all of the utilities to serve the entire tract. He stated they are aware of the necessity to acquire an easement or letter of permission from the property owner on the south to allow for drainage from the subdivision as stated in Mr. Lynch' s letter of September 2, 1977. Chairman Tyson asked the location of the existing property line on Tract 3R-2R. Mr. Elliott stated the existing property line is twenty-five feet West of the line shown on the plat. Mr. Adams stated the asphalt on the North and South side of the building is the property line, with the present fire lane as the East property line. Twenty-five feet to the East has been acquired for additional future parking, however, the North and South property lines will remain the same. Chairman Tyson stated the fire lane will be moved twenty-five feet. Mr. Adams stated it will not be moved at this time; all that is taking place at this time is the acquisition of an additional twenty-five feet in the replat. Chairman Tyson asked what will be developed on Tract 9. Mr. Hunsicker stated they are going to build a general use office building at that location. They also have preliminary plans for another tenant to develop Tract 7. The buildings will be single story with one tenant similar to the Hill-Rom building. C (Page Three, Regular Meeting, Planning and Zoning Commission, September 6, 1977) Chairman Tyson requested that Mr. Lynch' s letter be made a part of the minutes. Mr. Adams asked Mr. Elliott if he anticipates a problem obtaining permission for the drainage. Mr. Elliott stated he does anticipate a problem. The owner, Mrs. Richards, has owned the property for many years, but has recently had the property on the market and had many offers. She has granted easements in the past but is very cautious. It is his understanding that there have been some people looking at the property and he does not feel she will sign the letter of permission if she is in the process of signing a contract. However, he does not feel the letter of permission is impossible to obtain. Chairman Tyson asked if there were any other questions. There were none. Mr. Adams abstained from voting. Mr. Eden made a motion to recommend preliminary plat approval of Westpark Central as submitted subject to Mr. Lynch's letter of September 2, 1977. Mr. Porter seconded the motion and the vote is as follows: Ayes: Messrs. Eden, Porter, Tyson, Munir, and Mrs. Lightbody Nays: None Abstain: Mr. Adams Chairman Tyson declared the motion carried. 11 . CONSIDER PLAT REVISION - OAKWOOD ACRES ESTATES. (PROPERTY LOCATED EAST OF NORTH MAIN, SOUTH OF EAST ASH LANE) Mr. Elliott stated he is representing Oakwood Acres Estates. The reason for the revision is to correct a mistake on the original plat. The only changes made are in the lot dimensions running East and West on Lots 2R thru 10R. An alley was originally proposed and all of the lots were dimensioned accordingly. However, approval was granted subject to the alley being replaced with a private ingress-egress easement. In their haste in revising the plat, the dimensions were not corrected. (Page Four, Regular Meeting, Planning and Zoning Commission, September 6, 1977) Chairman Tyson requested that Mr. cLynch's letter be made a part of the minutes. Mr. Adams made a motion to recommend approval of the Oakwood Acres Estates plat revision as submitted. Mr. Munir seconded the motion and the vote is as follows: Ayes: Messrs. Adams, Munir, Porter, Eden, Tyson, and Mrs. Lightbody Nays: None Chairman Tyson declared the motion carried. III . ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m. APPROVED-CQL � Chairman C Cr
