AND WE WILL NOW GATHER GAVEL IN OUR OCTOBER 6TH SIGN BOARD MEETING, WHICH IF YOU THOUGHT PLANNING AND ZONING WAS EXCITING, WAIT

[1. Call to Order.]

[00:00:10]

TILL YOU COME TO A SIGN BOARD.

SO I WON'T BELABOR IT WITH ANY OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS UNLESS ANYONE HAS ANYTHING, I DON'T SEE ANY.

SO I THINK WE'LL GO AHEAD AND MOVE STRAIGHT TO ITEM NUMBER FOUR, WHICH IS CONSIDERATION APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FROM OUR SEPTEMBER 22ND MEETING.

[4. Consider: Approving the minutes from the September 22, 2022, Sign Board Meeting. ]

ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS ON THAT OR CAN WE MOVE TO A MOTION? MOVE TO MOTION. MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER FOUR ON THE AGENDA.

I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ALL RIGHT. VOTE PLEASE.

AND IT PASSES 4 TO 1 WITH ONE PERSON ABSTAINING.

WE'LL MOVE ON TO ITEM FIVE, WHICH IS OUR ONLY ITEM ON THE AGENDA THIS EVENING, WHICH IS CONSIDERATION AMENDMENT TO THE MASTER PLAN FOR GRANITE PLACE TWO.

[5. Consider: SV22-0013, Amendment to the Master Sign Plan for Granite Place Two located at 601 State Street, Southlake, Texas.]

AGAIN, WE HEARD A PRESENTATION ON THIS IN OUR WORK SESSION.

AND DENNIS, I THINK MAYBE IT'S FAIR TO DESCRIBE THIS REQUEST AS SOMETHING THAT POTENTIALLY KIND OF SLIPPED THROUGH THE PROCESS THAT WAS INCONSISTENT WITH THE FIRST BUILDING APPROVAL.

AND THE GOAL HERE IS A REQUEST JUST TO SQUARE THAT UP TO MAKE IT CONSISTENT WITH THE FIRST BUILDING.

THE SIGNAGE ON THE SECOND BUILDING TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE SIGNAGE ON THE FIRST BUILDING.

THAT IS CORRECT, MR. CHAIRMAN. WHAT YOU SEE ON THIS SLIDE IS THE FIRST MASTER SIGN PLAN THAT WAS APPROVED THIS PAST YEAR FOR GRANITE, THE GRANITE TWO BUILDING. THE INTENT OF THESE WAS TO PROVIDE CONSISTENCY BETWEEN GRANITE ONE AND GRANITE TWO.

THERE WAS SOME LANGUAGE IN THAT PLAN THAT RESTRICTED LETTER SIZES WITHIN THE PERMITTED SIGN AREAS TO THE 14 INCHES.

THIS PROPOSAL WOULD REMOVE THAT AND THEN LIKEWISE INCREASE THE PERMITTED LOWER FLOOR SIGN HEIGHTS FROM WHAT WAS CURRENTLY TWO FEET TO TWO AND A HALF FEET, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH GRANITE PLACE ONE.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? OKAY. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

NOW WE CAN INVITE THE APPLICANT UP, I GUESS, IF ANYONE WANTS.

ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS FOR THE APPLICANT.

WHY NOT COME ALL THE WAY UP HERE? [INAUDIBLE] MR. CUNNINGHAM, DO YOU MIND STATING YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? SURE. MY NAME IS DAVID CUNNINGHAM.

I'M THE SENIOR DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT FOR GRANTED PROPERTIES.

I RESIDE AT 1701 GRASS COURT IN SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.

I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS ERROR.

WE MISSED THIS ONE LITTLE DIMENSION, AND WE DO NEED TO GET IT CORRECTED SO THAT WE CAN COMPLETE SOME LEASES.

WE HAVE TWO LEASES THAT ARE OUT FOR SIGNATURE AND BOTH OF THEM WOULD USE TWO OF THESE LOWER LOCATIONS.

SO IT IS IMPORTANT FOR US TO MAKE THIS CHANGE.

AND I DO APPRECIATE YOUR CONSIDERATION.

I WASN'T GOING TO CALL YOU UP FOR THIS QUESTION, BUT SINCE YOU'RE HERE, I JUST THOUGHT I'D ASK.

REMIND ME HOW THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE BUILDING THIS BUILDING IS FIVE STORY'S VERSUS SIX ON THE PHASE ONE, AND IT'S 143,000 SQUARE FEET. AND I THOUGHT I READ OBVIOUSLY THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE APPROVAL HERE, BUT JUST SINCE WE HAVE YOU HERE, I THOUGHT I READ YOU DO HAVE A MAJOR PRESS RELEASE THERE AS WELL, RIGHT? WE ARE WORKING ON ENOUGH LEASES TO CLOSELY FILL THE BUILDING RIGHT NOW.

SO THAT'S GREAT. YOU'RE GOOD.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

I WAS SELFISH AND START ASKING QUESTIONS LIKE THAT, BUT I THINK YOU'VE GOT AND I GUESS WHEN DO YOU ANTICIPATE CFO ON THIS? WE TOPPED OUT, AS YOU KNOW, TWO WEEKS AGO.

WE ARE ANTICIPATING A CFO THE END OF MARCH.

THAT IS ASSUMING WE CAN GET ALL THE PARTS AND PIECES.

[INAUDIBLE] YES, THAT'S A REAL PROBLEM.

YEAH, WE WE WERE NOTIFIED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO THAT OUR FIRE ALARM PANEL IS MAYBE DELAYED BY A MONTH.

SO WE'RE WORKING ON THAT PROBLEM NOW.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, IT'S ON SCHEDULE.

WELL, THAT MAY NOT BE TOO BAD, GIVEN ALL ALL THINGS CONSIDERED HEARD OUT WEST, ELECTRICAL SWITCHING PANELS CAN TAKE UP TO A YEAR.

YEAH. YES, EXACTLY.

THAT CAN BE PROBLEMATIC GETTING TENANTS MOVED INTO BUILDINGS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS I WANTED TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE [INAUDIBLE] THESE PREFAB PANELS YOU'RE PUTTING UP FOR THE WALLS.

DID YOU USE THOSE SAME ONES AND THE OTHER BUILDING, SAME EXACT DESIGN.

I DIDN'T REMEMBER THEM FROM THAT.

THE PANELS ARE PRECAST PANELS, BUT THEY HAVE A EMBEDDED FACE BRICK, SO IT'S JUST ANOTHER MEANS OF PUTTING FACE.

BUT INSTEAD OF BUILDING THE SCAFFOLDS AND LIGHT GAUGE FRAMING, IT'S JUST A DIFFERENT MEANS OF DOING IT.

IT'S ACTUALLY IT'S A GREAT IDEA.

I JUST DIDN'T REMEMBER DOING IT.

YEAH, IT'S MORE EFFICIENT. IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE EXPENSIVE, BUT IT SPEEDS THE PROJECT UP, RIGHT?

[00:05:02]

AND IT'S PROBABLY STRONGER, ACTUALLY, I WOULD THINK.

YES, IT IS RIGHT NOW IT'S BEEN NICE TO WATCH IT TAKE SHAPE.

EVERYBODY'S GOING TO HAVE THEIR OWN OPINION ON ESTHETICS, BUT I DO LIKE HOW IT SHIELDS THE GARAGE.

IT KIND OF TIES TOGETHER PARTS OF TOWN SQUARE THAT HAVEN'T REALLY BEEN TIED TOGETHER YET.

CREATES KIND OF A STREET SCENE.

YOU KNOW, KIND OF I DON'T KNOW.

IT HELPS WITH THE PARK.

JUST ACTIVATE THAT. WELL, I THINK YOU'LL BE ESPECIALLY PLEASED WITH THE LANDSCAPING CREATION THAT WE'VE GOT IN BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS.

IT'S GOING TO BE A VERY, VERY NICE SPACE THAT'S GOING TO BE CREATED.

SOMEONE ASKED ME THE OTHER DAY, IS THAT DID YOU INTENTIONALLY TURN THE BUILDING SO THAT YOU COULD STILL SEE THE FIRE STATION DOWN DIVISION? I SAID, ACTUALLY, WE DID.

SO THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT.

NO, THANK YOU, BECAUSE I KNOW I'VE GOTTEN THAT COMMENT MYSELF BEFORE FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE, YOU KNOW, HAPPY ABOUT THAT.

WE'LL PUT IT THAT WAY OR WOULD HAVE BEEN GRUMPY OTHERWISE.

OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMENTS. THANK YOU FOR COMING DOWN HERE TONIGHT.

THANK YOU. AND AGAIN, HOPEFULLY PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD, BUT I LEAN ON STAFF IN TERMS OF THE CITY COUNCIL.

PROBABLY NEED TO BE HERE.

IT CAN'T EVER HURT, BUT SOMETIMES THEY'LL TAKE THESE ON CONCERNS.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU. SIGN BOARD ITEMS DON'T CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING, SO I GUESS WE CAN ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS.

OTHERWISE ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER FIVE ON THE AGENDA [INAUDIBLE] 2 2-0013 SUBJECT TO OUR STAFF REPORT DATED SEPTEMBER 30TH, 2022. OK WE HAVE A MOTION.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND.

VOTE.

PASSES 5-0 CONGRATULATIONS.

GOOD LUCK AT THE NEXT MEETING ON OCTOBER 18TH.

AND WITH THAT BEFORE 7:00 PM WE ARE GOING TO ADJOURN BOTH MEETINGS AS ANOTHER EARLY RETIREMENT PRESENT TO DIRECTOR BAKER.
