Sep 22, 2022 Planning and Zoning Commission

[00:00:01]

ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING EVERYBODY IS 6:30 P.M.

[1. Call to Order]

WELCOME TO THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.

MY NAME IS DANIEL KUBIAK, THE CHAIRMAN, AND THESE ARE MY HELPFUL COMMISSIONERS.

I'LL SPARE THE LONG INTRO TONIGHT.

GIVEN THE LACK OF CAPACITY CROWD IN THE GALLERY AND ASSUME YOU'LL JUST TRUST THAT WE WILL EXERCISE GOOD CITY GOVERNMENT UP HERE TONIGHT.

AS MOST OF YOU KNOW, I DO LIKE A GOOD CHALLENGE AND OUR DIRECTOR PLANNING HAS CHALLENGED ME AND TOLD ME THAT THIS SHOULD BE NO MORE THAN A 30 MINUTE OVERALL MEETING TONIGHT.

SO I'LL SEE IF I CAN LIVE UP TO HIS HEIGHT AND STANDARDS.

SO WE'LL GIVE IT A SHOT.

NO NEED FOR EXECUTIVE SESSION THIS EVENING.

ANY ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS THAT WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT? NO. SORRY. NOTHING. SORRY.

I DIDN'T MEAN. CATCH YOU OFF GUARD THERE.

THAT WAS A TOUGH ONE. YEAH.

HAD TO THINK ABOUT IT FOR A SECOND.

NO CHAIRMAN COMMENTS THIS EVENING GIVEN A FAIRLY NARROW AGENDA.

[CONSENT AGENDA: ]

ITEMS FIVE AND SIX, FIVE IS APPROVAL OF OUR MINUTES FROM THE SEPTEMBER 8TH MEETING.

SIX IS THE FINAL PLAT FOR FERGUSON PLACE.

WE'VE ALL BEEN PROVIDED THOSE ITEMS. ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS ON ANY OF THOSE BEFORE WE POTENTIALLY ENTERTAIN A MOTION THAT CAPTURES BOTH OF THEM? SEEING NONE, I THINK I'LL GO AHEAD AND ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA, INCLUDING THE APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FOR THE SEPTEMBER 8TH PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING AND A FINAL PLAT FOR FERGUSON PLACE.

WE HAVE A MOTION TO HAVE A SECOND SMOKE, PLEASE.

AND MOTION PASSES 4-0.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

[7. Consider: Plat Revision for Lots 1 R-1 & 1 R-2 of the Brewer Addition, being a revision of Lot 1R, Brewer Addition, an addition to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas. Current Zoning: "SF-1B" Single Family Residential District. SPIN Neighborhood #11. PUBLIC HEARING ]

A PLAT REVISION FOUR LOTS 1R-1 AND 1R-2.

IN THE BREWER EDITION, WE SAW A SUMMARY OF THIS CASE IN OUR WORK SESSION JUST NOW, SO I DON'T KNOW IF STAFF WANTS TO CALL IT MAYBE JUST THE SUMMARY SLIDE ON THE PRESENTATION JUST FOR EVERYBODY TO LOOK AT.

I DON'T THINK WE NEED A STAFF PRESENTATION ANY.

QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR STAFF ON THIS ITEM.

AGAIN. I DON'T SEE ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF.

NORMALLY WE WOULD HAVE AN APPLICANT HERE THIS EVENING.

DO WE HAVE AN APPLICANT HERE FOR THIS? I DO NOT BELIEVE SO.

I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH WITH SPRY SURVEYING TODAY, AND I DON'T KNOW IF SOMETHING CAME UP FOR AN EMERGENCY, BUT THEY WERE AWARE OF IT.

AND I THINK THIS ONE, AGAIN, SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS ONE, CONFORMS TO ALL PREVIOUS APPROVALS, MAYBE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A SIDEWALK VARIANCE THAT WAS NOT, I GUESS, SHOWN OR SUBMITTED BY THE APPLICANT.

CORRECT. THE SIDEWALK VARIANCE HAS NOT BEEN SUBMITTED YET.

HOWEVER, IT IS A STAFF COMMENT THAT IT WOULD BE REQUIRED OF SUCH A VARIANCE WERE NOT GRANTED BY CITY COUNCIL.

THE APPLICANT DOES INTEND TO REQUEST SUCH A VARIANCE.

OKAY. YES, SIR.

OKAY. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE CAPTURED THAT.

FOR THE RECORD, NORMALLY WE WOULD HAVE AN APPLICANT HERE MAYBE EXPRESS THE APPLICANT.

THE FRUSTRATION OF THE COMMISSION TO NOT HAVE AN APPLICANT.

SINCE WE'RE HERE, THEY SHOULD BE HERE.

SO WITH THAT, I GUESS ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? I WILL OPEN THE REQUIRED HEARING FOR THIS ITEM.

EVERYBODY, GOOD STAFF.

THANK YOU. ITEM NUMBER SEVEN, OUR AGENDA DOES REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING.

GO AHEAD. OPEN THAT PUBLIC HEARING NOW.

SEE IF ANYONE WANTS TO COME FORWARD AND COMMENT ON THAT ITEM.

AND SEEING NO ONE, I WILL GO AND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

YOU KNOW, I'M FINE MOVING IT ALONG.

JUST GIVE IT UP. I THINK I KNOW THERE'S SOME SHOT CLOCK REGULATIONS THAT THAT.

I'M FINE MOVING. LEGISLATURE IS.

I'M FINE MOVING ALONG BUT I DON'T KNOW.

I MEAN, I'M NOT SO SURE ABOUT JUST WAIVING THE SIDEWALK VARIANCE.

I MEAN, JUST GIVEN THE SIDEWALK VARIANCE, JUST NOTHING BEING PRESENTED.

WE'RE LOOKING TO DEVELOP OUR SIDEWALKS IN OUR CITY AND NOW'S A GOOD TIME TO DO IT SO THAT THE CITY DOESN'T WIND UP HAVING TO FOOT THE BILL LATER ON.

AND IF COUNCIL WANTS TO GRANT IT, THEN I WOULD AGREE.

IF I COULD HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT ON THE SUBJECT, MAYBE MY MIND MIGHT CHANGE.

BUT I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER.

IF YOU CAN.

THE STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT THE COMMISSION EITHER APPROVE APPROVAL CONDITIONS OR DENY.

THERE'S TECHNICALLY NOT A BASIS FOR DENIAL, BUT YOU CAN'T IMPROVE WITH CONDITION THAT APPROVED THE REVISION WITH THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE SIDEWALK BE BUILT

[00:05:07]

ALL RIGHT. I THINK THAT SOUNDS LIKE A WINNER TO ME.

I'M FINE DOING THAT, GIVEN WHAT YOU GUYS LAID OUT.

SO WE'VE DONE OUR PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEM SEVEN AND ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMENTS BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO AHEAD.

AND MR. CHAIRMAN, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE CASE NUMBER ZA 22-0041 SUBJECT TO THE STAFF REPORT DATED SEPTEMBER 16TH, 2022 AND PLAT REVIEW SUMMARY NUMBER ONE DATED SEPTEMBER 16TH, 2022, IN APPROVING THE VARIANCE WITH A REQUEST THAT THE SIDEWALK BE BUILT.

MOTION. THAT WOULD BE I'M SORRY, THAT WOULD BE NOT APPROVING THE VARIANCE.

SO WE'RE NOT APPROVING THE VARIANCE.

SO NOT APPROVING THE VARIANCE, THEREFORE THE SIDEWALK WILL BE REQUIRED.

YES. SO THAT'S THE AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND.

LET'S GO AND VOTE, PLEASE.

PASSES 4-0.

I WOULD NORMALLY CONGRATULATE THE APPLICANT, BUT WE DON'T HAVE AN APPLICANT HERE.

WE'LL SEE. SO HOPEFULLY.

PLEASE EXPRESS THE APPLICANT.

THE COMMISSION'S FRUSTRATION.

THEY WERE NOT HERE. WITH THAT, I WILL END A SEVEN MINUTE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.
