PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE.

ALLEGIANCE], PLEDGE].

THANK YOU, PASTOR REED, RIGHT.

I THINK WE HAVE SOME OPEN SEATS KIND OF ON THE SIDES.

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE AT THE BACK, MIGHT HAVE TO SQUEEZE IN, BUT I THINK THERE ARE SOME OPEN SEATS AND WE HAVE A LOT TO CELEBRATE TONIGHT.

[3. Honors & Recognition: A Salute to Future Defenders]

WE WANT TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON THEIR COMMITMENT TO DEFENDING OUR NATION.

COULD BOTH OF YOU COME DOWN TO THE FRONT OF THE ROOM, PLEASE? NOW, AT THIS TIME, I'D LIKE TO INVITE MILLEN.

GEORGIA. WHO'S GOING TO SAY A FEW WORDS? MILAN'S A SOUTHLAKE RESIDENT.

THIS IS A SPECIAL WEEK WITH MEMORIAL DAY COMING UP.

AND MILAN, IF YOU'LL TAKE THE PODIUM AND SAY A FEW WORDS.

WELL, LET ME FIRST SAY FIRST THINGS FIRST.

AND THAT'S CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR APPOINTMENT TO WEST POINT AND FOR OPTING IN ON THE ROTC PROGRAM.

I THINK EVERYONE HERE WILL JOIN ME IN THAT.

YOU STAND ON THE PRECIPICE OF A OF A NEW WORLD AND ADVENTURE IN YOUR YOUNG LIVES, AN OPPORTUNITY THAT YOU HAVE VOLUNTEERED OR ELECTED TO DO NOT ONLY FOR YOURSELF, BUT FOR YOUR FUTURE AND FOR YOUR COUNTRY.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR VOLUNTEERING.

IF YOU CAN KEEP YOUR WITS ABOUT YOU.

PRACTICE, PRACTICE.

YOUR TRAINING WILL PAY OFF AND IT WILL PREVAIL.

AND YOU WILL PREVAIL.

VALE IN WHATEVER YOU PURSUE.

YOU'VE GONE FROM THE TOP OF THE HEAP, SO TO SPEAK, IN HIGH SCHOOL, AND NOW YOU'RE BACK DOWN ON THE BOTTOM.

SO YOU'RE STARTING THAT CLIMB AGAIN.

WITHIN THE MILITARY, YOU'LL FIND IT'S AN EASY CLIMB IF YOU DO THE TRAINING, IF YOU DO WHAT'S REQUIRED OF YOU, AND YOU'LL ENJOY IT AND MAKE SOMETHING OF IT.

IT ALSO GIVES YOU THE CHANCE TO FULFILL ONE OF THE MOST NEGLECTED OBLIGATIONS OF CITIZENSHIP.

IN THIS COUNTRY AND THAT'S PARTICIPATION FOR YOUR COUNTRY.

YOU'RE ABOUT TO PARTICIPATE IN SOMETHING THAT IS ACTUALLY BIGGER THAN YOURSELF.

IT'S BIGGER THAN ALL OF YOUR COMMUNITY EXPERIENCE OR ANYTHING ELSE YOU'VE EVER DONE.

IT'S REALLY A WORLD EXPERIENCE.

THERE ARE MANY TAKEAWAYS FROM THE SERVICE IN THE MILITARY, NO MATTER HOW LONG YOU CHOOSE TO SERVE, SO DON'T OVERLOOK THEM. I WON'T CONFUSE YOU NOW WITH ALL OF THEM, BUT I WILL SAY RIGHT NOW YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW.

SO IT'S GOING TO BE A LEARNING PROCESS FOR NOW.

YOUR TAKEAWAY THIS EVENING IS FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR IT.

LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THAT PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SPEAK WITH YOU TONIGHT.

THANK YOU SIR. APPRECIATE THAT.

WE HAVE A PROCLAMATION FROM THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE.

I'M GOING TO READ AND THEN IF YOU ALL WOULD REMAIN THERE, WE'RE GOING TO COME DOWN AND TAKE A PICTURE, IF THAT'S OKAY.

IT'D BE THE HIGHEST PERFORMING KIDS AND PARENTS.

I CONSIDER IT A BLESSING TO BE ABLE TO LIVE IN A COMMUNITY WHERE PEOPLE WILL POUR INTO OTHERS.

AS KIDS AND MY KIDS WHO WERE NOW 19, 18 AND 17 ARE SEEING A LOT OF THAT NOW, WHERE SOME OF THE SENIOR MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY WILL STOP THEM IN THE GROCERY STORE FOR AN HOUR, AND MY DAUGHTER EATS IT UP AND I THINK THAT'S SUCH A BLESSING THAT PEOPLE ARE SO WILLING TO GIVE IN THIS COMMUNITY.

SO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE AND CONTINUE TO DO.

ALRIGHT, THANK YOU. RONELL. NOW WE HAVE A LOT OF AWARD WINNERS.

WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO GET A PICTURE OF, DO YOU THINK WE CAN SQUEEZE IN MAYBE IF YOU WANT TO DIRECT TRAFFIC BUT EVERYONE WHO'S BEEN RECOGNIZED AND AWARDED TONIGHT, IF YOU'D LIKE TO COME TO THE FRONT, WE'LL TRY TO SORT THAT OUT.

SO JUST COME ON DOWN, COUNCIL.

IT'S ALL YOURS. THANK YOU SO MUCH, MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS.

I'M HONORED TO BE HERE TONIGHT TO SHOWCASE A VERY SPECIAL VIDEO THAT OUR SKILL STUDENTS HAVE BEEN WORKING ON.

BUT FIRST, I WANTED TO SHARE SOME QUICK BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT THE VIDEO.

LAST YEAR, DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM TALLEY AND I MET, AND SHE CAME UP WITH A WONDERFUL IDEA OF HAVING THE STUDENTS WORK ON A YEAR LONG PROJECTS WHERE THEY CREATE THEIR OWN CITIES AND FROM THEN WE WERE INSPIRED TO CREATE A CITY PROGRAM, AND WE WOULD HAVE MEMBERS OF OUR EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP TEAM COME AND PRESENT TO THE STUDENTS ABOUT NOT ONLY HOW THEIR DEPARTMENTS OPERATE, BUT ALSO SOME INFORMATION ABOUT OUR CITY'S HISTORY AND WITH THAT, I'M EXCITED TO SHOW THE VIDEO WITH YOU ALL AND THEN AFTERWARDS, WE HAVE A FEW OF OUR SKILL MEMBERS HERE IN THE AUDIENCE WITH US, AND THEY'RE HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.

SANDY SHORES IS LOCATED SOUTH OF HOUSTON ON THE COASTLINE.

WE ARE A TOWN CENTERED AROUND TOURISM, PROMOTING SMALL BUSINESSES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION [INAUDIBLE] SUSTAINABILITY AND WALKABILITY.

OUR MODERN ARCHITECTURAL BUILDINGS HARMONIOUSLY BLEND WITH ENVIRONMENT, CREATING A PLEASANT URBAN EXPERIENCE.

THE CITY'S ROBUST INFRASTRUCTURE INCLUDES WELL-PLANNED ROADS, SIDEWALKS, AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS, ENSURING SEAMLESS CONNECTIVITY FOR ALL RESIDENTS.

OUR CITY CENTERS ITSELF AROUND MAJOR HIGHWAYS AND INCORPORATES GREEN ARCHITECTURE THROUGHOUT THE TOWN.

ADDITIONALLY, THE CITY PROVIDES PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IN ORDER TO GIVE CITIZENS AN EASY, SUSTAINABLE WAY TO TRAVEL AROUND TOWN.

EDUCATION AND RECREATION FACILITIES ARE LOCATED NEAR MAJOR ROADS, AND THE BUSINESSES AND COMMERCIAL CENTERS ARE SITUATED NEAR THE HIGHWAY IN THE CENTER OF OUR CITY.

WE HAVE OUR BEAUTIFUL TOWN HALL, WHICH SEATS OUR MAYOR AND EMPLOYEES.

OUR TOWN CENTER EXEMPLIFIES EVERYTHING WE STAND FOR, FROM THE COMMUNITY, SHOPPING, AND SMALL BUSINESSES.

ON THE OUTSIDE OF OUR TOWN IS OUR SAFETY AND EDUCATION, INCLUSIVE OF OUR POLICE AND FIRE STATIONS, SCHOOL DISTRICT AND HOUSES.

LASTLY, ON THE OUTSIDE, WE HAVE OUR ROSE FARMS WITH OUR WINDMILLS TO PROVIDE SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FOR ROSE RIDGE.

OUR TOWN CENTERS FULL OF LIFE, BOASTING CHARMING TOWNHOUSES, MODERN APARTMENTS AND AN ARRAY OF DELIGHTFUL RESTAURANTS.

WE WILL PUT COMMERCIAL SPACES AND SINGLE FAMILY HOMES CLOSER TO THE BEACH FOR SMALL BUSINESSES AND TOURISTS, LIGHT INDUSTRIAL AREAS AND OFFICES FOR THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN.

AND WHILE PUTTING OUR PUBLIC SPOTS IN THE MIDDLE SO PEOPLE CAN TRAVEL IN BETWEEN.

THE CITY OF TECHNIK HAS CAREFULLY PLANNED ITS BUDGET TO SUPPORT ITS AMBITIOUS DEVELOPMENT GOALS, FROM UTILITIES TO EDUCATION AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES.

EVERY INVESTMENT IS AIMED AT ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR OUR RESIDENTS.

OUR TAX STRUCTURE IS DESIGNED TO BE COMPETITIVE, ATTRACTING BUSINESSES AND FOSTERING ECONOMIC GROWTH.

FURTHERMORE, TECKNIK STRONG EDUCATION SYSTEM WITH A FOCUS ON STEM LAYS THE GROUNDWORK FOR A SMOOTH TRANSITION FROM COLLEGE TO CAREER.

SKY CITY'S BUDGET TAKES INTO ACCOUNT OUR ECO FRIENDLY GOALS AS WELL AS THE COMFORT OF OUR RESIDENTS.

OUR BUDGET INCLUDES MAJOR UTILITIES SUCH AS EDUCATION, PUBLIC SAFETY AND TRANSPORTATION, AND MAINTAINING PARKS.

AS OUR FOCUS IS ENCOURAGING ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY, A LARGE PORTION OF OUR BUDGET IS PUT TOWARDS MAINTAINING NATIONAL PARKS AND DEVELOPING FACILITIES THROUGH ECO FRIENDLY

[00:30:01]

OUR SECOND HIGHEST PRIORITY OF OUR BUDGET WAS ON BASIC UTILITIES.

WE MADE EDUCATION AND RECREATION ABOUT 40% OF OUR BUDGET.

HOW WE GOT OUR REVENUE WAS THROUGH A 10% TAX ON SALES, PROPERTY AND TOLLS.

THIS IS ALSO THROUGH BONDS AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL REVENUE MADE BY ADDING A SHOPPING CENTER.

OUR CITY THRIVES ON TOURISM, AND WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED SEVERAL INITIATIVES TO ENSURE ITS GROWTH AND SUSTAINABILITY.

A TOURISM TAX HELPS FUND INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS AND ENHANCES THE VISITOR EXPERIENCE.

WE HOST A PLETHORA OF FESTIVALS AND EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, CELEBRATING OUR CULTURE AND HERITAGE.

WHILE ATTRACTING TOURISTS FROM FAR AND WIDE.

WE OFFER INCENTIVES SUCH AS TAX REDUCTIONS FOR BUSINESSES LOCATED IN DESIGNATED AREAS, ENCOURAGING GROWTH AND INVESTMENT.

FURTHERMORE, WE PROVIDE GRANTS TO DEVELOPERS WHO INVEST IN OUR TOURISM AREAS, HELPING THEM BRING THEIR VISIONS TO LIFE AND ENHANCING OUR CITY'S APPEAL.

WE DIVIDED THE INITIAL FUNDING INTO BASIC INFRASTRUCTURE SUCH AS BUILDINGS, OUR TOWN HALL, WATER AND SEWAGE LINES AND OTHER NECESSITIES.

THE ADDITIONAL REVENUE WE NEED FOR OUR SCHOOL DISTRICTS, LIBRARIES, ROADS AND DISASTER RELIEF WILL COME FROM GRANTS, PARTNERSHIPS AND SALES TAX.

ADDITIONALLY, SANDY SHORES STRIVES TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE SMALL BUSINESSES CAN THRIVE.

TECHNIQUES. BUSINESS LANDSCAPE IS THRIVING WITH INNOVATION AND DIVERSITY, CATERING TO BOTH BUSINESS TO CONSUMER AND BUSINESS TO BUSINESS MARKETS.

OUR FIRST B2C INNOVATION SMART HAVEN LEADS THE WAY IN AUTOMATION, WHILE DRONE DASH, A PILOT PROGRAM OF DOORDASH, OFFERS AERIAL DELIVERY SERVICES BY DRONE.

ON THE BUSINESS TO BUSINESS FRONT, PUBLIC TECH PARTNERS SUPPLIES SPECIALIZED TECH PRODUCTS TO BUSINESSES, GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS.

OUR LAST B2B INNOVATION, CYBER ARMOR, PROVIDES CRUCIAL DIGITAL PROTECTION AND CYBERSECURITY AGAINST ONLINE THREATS.

THESE FOUR BUSINESSES CONTRIBUTE TO TECHNIK REPUTATION AS A CENTER FOR TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENT AND INNOVATION.

SKYCITY'S BUSINESS LANDSCAPE CENTERS AROUND SUSTAINABILITY AND INNOVATION.

OUR FIRST B2C IS GREEN WHEELS, A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY THAT SITUATES BIKE STATIONS ALL OVER THE TOWN AVAILABLE TO ANYWHERE, WHEREVER THEY ARE, AND REDUCING CARBON EMISSIONS.

ANOTHER B2B WE HAVE IS PROJECT PILOT, A FREELANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM THAT OFFERS COMPANIES A PLACE TO FIND, MANAGE AND PAY FREELANCE TALENT.

ONE OF THE TOWN'S UNIQUE ATTRACTIONS IS THE CHARM OF THE SOUTH, A RIVERFRONT RESTAURANT RENOWNED FOR ITS SCENIC VIEWS AND DELECTABLE DISHES FOR THOSE SEEKING ADVENTURE ON THE WATER. THOUGH, TWO RENTAL SERVICES ARE ALSO READILY AVAILABLE, ALLOWING VISITORS TO LEISURELY FLOAT DOWN THE RIVER, SOAKING IN THE NATURAL BEAUTY SURROUNDING WATERHILL.

OUR CITY FOCUSES ON TOURISM AND SMALL BUSINESSES.

TO PROMOTE TOURISM, WE HAVE RENTAL OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT AND FAMILY OWNED BOUTIQUE CLOTHING SHOPS.

SOME OTHER IMPORTANT BUSINESSES INCLUDE A BEACH CLEANUP SERVICE, AND WE ALSO EMPLOY A COMMERCIAL DEVELOPING COMPANY TO CONSTRUCT NECESSARY BUILDINGS.

THROUGHOUT OUR TIME AT SCALE, WE HAVE DELVED INTO A MYRIAD OF TOPICS, FROM CITY PLANNING AND BUDGETING TO BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND SAFETY.

EACH STEP OF THE WAY, WE HAVE BEEN GUIDED BY DEDICATED MENTORS AND INSPIRED BY THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A TANGIBLE DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF OUR EXPERIENCE WAS OUR INTERNSHIP AT CHARLES SCHWAB, IN WHICH WE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF EXPLORING THE WORLD OF STOCKS, OPTIONS AND TRADING.

THIS HANDS ON EXPERIENCE NOT ONLY DEEPENED OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE FINANCIAL MARKETS, BUT ALSO INSTILLED IN US A SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY AND STEWARDSHIP WHEN IT COMES TO ALLOCATING RESOURCES.

AS WE REFLECT ON OUR JOURNEY, WE ARE REMINDED OF THE IMPORTANCE OF COLLABORATION, CURIOSITY, AND CONTINUOUS LEARNING.

OUR TIME AT SKIL HAS EQUIPPED US WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND CONFIDENCE TO ENGAGE MEANINGFULLY WITH ISSUES FACING OUR CITY, AND TO ADVOCATE FOR POSITIVE CHANGE.

WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS OUR HEARTFELT GRATITUDE TO THE CITY COUNCIL, THE CARROLL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, AND THE SALT LAKE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR THEIR UNWAVERING SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE THROUGHOUT THIS JOURNEY.

THANK YOU

[00:35:14]

SEE YOU LATER. THANK YOU FOR VISITING ROSE RIDGE.

VISIT US SOON.

THANKS FOR FLOATING BY.

COME TO WATER HILL AGAIN SOON.

THANK YOU FOR VISITING OUR TOWN.

WE HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON.

SANDY SHORES. SIGNING OFF.

THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, BORA.

I'LL INVITE THE STUDENTS WHO ARE IN THE AUDIENCE TO COME ON DOWN TO THE PODIUM.

WE MAY HAVE SOME QUESTIONS OR SOME COMMENTS, BUT BEFORE WE GET TO THAT, COME ON DOWN AND I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM KATHY TALLEY, WHO'S BEEN SO INVOLVED WITH THE SKIL PROGRAM FOR A FEW COMMENTS.

KATHY. GO AHEAD. THANK YOU.

MAYOR AND I HAVE SHORTENED MY COMMENTS THAT I MADE AT THE AWARDS PRESENTATION, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT TO SHARE SOME OF THEM WITH YOU TONIGHT.

THE SKIL PROGRAM SEEKS TO FACILITATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENGAGEMENT BY THE CITY'S YOUTH, WHERE THEY BECOME COLLABORATORS AND DECISION MAKERS.

THIS LEADERSHIP PROGRAM IS A STUDENT AND ADULT ALLIANCE FOR BETTER GOVERNMENT AND A BETTER SOUTHLAKE.

SO IN LOOKING AT THIS AND THINKING ABOUT THE YEAR, HOW HAVE ALL OF US EXPERIENCED LEADERSHIP THROUGHOUT THE SKIL PROCESS? I WANT TO START WITH DANIEL CORTEZ AND BORIS SOLARI'S LEADERSHIP.

DANIEL, OF COURSE, HIMSELF IS A LEADER.

AS THE DIRECTOR OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND TOURISM FOR OUR CITY HAS TAKEN ON THE REINS OF THIS PROJECT AND HIS PASSION HAS SHOWN THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR AND SEVERAL YEARS NOW, AS GREAT LEADERS DO. DANIEL ENCOURAGED AND PASSED ON THE LEADERSHIP OF THIS PROJECT TO BORA, WHO HAS GIVEN SO MUCH OF HER TIME AND HEART AND ENERGY TO IT.

OF COURSE, BORA HAS LED ALL OF YOU THROUGH THIS PROJECT, AND HER ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND PASSION FOR SKILL HAS SHOWN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU STUDENTS AND YOUR LEADERSHIP AT THE BEGINNING AND IF YOU THINK ABOUT THIS, MOST OF THEM DIDN'T KNOW EACH OTHER, BUT VERY QUICKLY THEY LEARNED THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO WORK AS TEAMS, AND THEY TOOK THAT ON WITHOUT A BLANK AND PRESSED FORWARD TO CREATE THEIR NEW CITIES.

PART OF ANY TEAM BUILDING PROCESS INVOLVES THE EMERGENCE OF LEADERS, AND I WATCHED THAT HAPPEN AS YOU WORKED THROUGH EACH PIECE OF YOUR CITY'S PARTS THAT NEEDED, IN THE END, TO COME TOGETHER.

HOPEFULLY YOU'VE NOTICED THROUGHOUT THIS THAT LEADERSHIP IS NOT JUST ABOUT LEADING.

IT'S ABOUT ENCOURAGING, GUIDING, POSITIVELY REINFORCING, AND STRIVING HARD TO ENCOURAGE THOSE AROUND YOU TO REACH HIGHER FOR THE BETTERMENT OF YOUR TEAM.

AS I WATCHED OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, YOU CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND HONE THOSE SKILLS SUCH AS PROBLEM SOLVING, DECISION MAKING, EMPATHY, AND COOPERATION AND I WILL TELL YOU, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO HONE THOSE SKILLS AND TRAITS FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVES.

I'LL JUST LEAVE EVERYONE WITH THIS FINAL THOUGHT.

THE GREATEST LEADER IS NOT NECESSARILY THE ONE WHO DOES THE GREATEST THINGS.

THEY ARE THOSE WHO GET OTHERS TO DO THE GREATEST THINGS AND SO I JUST WANT TO CONGRATULATE YOU AND THANK YOU.

AND IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE TO TO WATCH YOU GUYS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

WELL SAID KATHY, I WOULD JUST.

I WOULD REITERATE WHAT I SAID THE OTHER NIGHT AT THE AWARDS DINNER.

IT'S IT'S REALLY IMPRESSIVE.

YOU KNOW, I KNOW FROM MY FOUR KIDS THE DEMANDING SCHEDULES YOU ALL KEEP AT THIS AGE AND AT THIS STAGE OF YOUR HIGH SCHOOL CAREERS AND ALL THE COMMITMENTS YOU HAVE AT ATHLETICS AND ACADEMICS, EXTRACURRICULAR VOLUNTEERING, AND SO HOW YOU'RE ABLE TO FIT THIS IN AND DO SUCH A GREAT JOB AT IS REALLY IMPRESSIVE.

SO CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU FOR DOING IT.

COUNCIL. ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ABOUT THE SKIL GROUP? ALL RIGHT. AS YOU CAN TELL, WE LIKE TO TAKE PICTURES HERE.

SO WE'RE GOING TO COME DOWN THERE AND I THINK ON THIS SIDE WE'LL TAKE A PICTURE WITH THE GROUP.

SO STAND BY.

[00:40:38]

[6. City of Southlake Memorial Day Observance]

AS YOU CAN TELL, WHEN YOU CAME IN THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING, THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE IS ALREADY OBSERVING MEMORIAL DAY WITH OUR MEMORIAL ON MAIN DISPLAY, WITH THE BIG BANNER HANGING IN THE FRONT OF TOWN HALL.

FROM THE BALCONY WE HAVE POLE BANNERS AND THE SIXTH ARMED FORCES SERVICE FLAGS OUT ON THE FRONT LAWN.

SEVERAL CITY FOUNTAINS WILL SHOW RED, WHITE AND BLUE LIGHTS TO HONOR THE DAY AS WE GO THROUGH FROM NOW UNTIL MONDAY.

AT THIS TIME AGAIN, I WOULD LIKE TO CALL UPON MILLEN, GEORGIA, TO SAY A FEW WORDS ABOUT MEMORIAL DAY, AND THEN WE'LL HAVE.

WHAT WE'LL DO AFTER THAT IS I'LL HAVE A CITY PROCLAMATION REGARDING MEMORIAL DAY, AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A WREATH THAT WE'RE GOING TO PLACE RIGHT HERE, AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A MOMENT OF SILENCE. SO, MILLEN, IF YOU'D YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO.

OKAY. MEMORIAL DAY REALLY KIND OF TOUCHES A NERVE WITH OBVIOUS VETERANS, BUT IT'S IT'S SET UPON AS A NATIONAL HOLIDAY TO REMEMBER THE FALLEN.

SO NEVER FORGET TO HONOR THOSE MEN AND WOMEN WHO MADE YOUR LIFE SO EASY AND CAREFREE.

BECAUSE IF YOU'VE BEEN ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD, YOU KNOW THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS A BUBBLE.

WE HAVE LIFE THAT IS SO GOOD IN THE UNITED STATES, ESPECIALLY IF YOU'VE SERVED IN A COMBAT ZONE FOR A YEAR AND WHEN YOU COME BACK HOME, YOU REALLY KISS THE GROUND.

IT'S SO GOOD TO BE BACK IN THE BUBBLE.

THE SACRIFICE THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE MADE.

TRADING THEIR LIFE TO PRESERVE YOUR FREEDOMS AND YOUR LIFE.

AS LONG AS WE REMEMBER AND HONOR THE MEN AND WOMEN.

THAT HAVE FALLEN, THEY SHALL NOT HAVE LIVED IN VAIN OR DIED IN VAIN.

EITHER. PLEASE REMEMBER.

MEMORIAL DAY AS TO WHAT IT WAS SET ASIDE FOR THE RECOGNITION OF THE FALLEN.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

WELL SAID. ALRIGHT, NEXT I'LL READ A PROCLAMATION FROM THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE. AND THEN AGAIN, WE WILL.

COUNCIL WILL COME DOWN FROM THE DAIS.

THERE'S A PROCLAMATION.

A COPY OF THE PROCLAMATION HERE AT THE FRONT WILL PLACE THE WREATH HERE.

MYELIN, IF YOU'LL JOIN ME WHEN WE GET DONE WITH THE PROCLAMATION AND THEN WE'LL HAVE A MOMENT OF SILENCE WHILE WE'RE STANDING DOWN THERE.

I THINK WITH RANDY, WITH AMY AND I, ANYONE ELSE WHO'S BEEN ON P AND Z FOR THE LAST 20 PLUS YEARS, AND HE WAS RECENTLY HONORED BY OR WITH THE PLANNING ADVOCATE AWARD FROM THE MIDWEST SECTION OF THE AMERICAN PLANNING ASSOCIATION.

COMMISSIONER SPRINGER HAS OVER 20 YEARS OF VOLUNTEER SERVICE WITH THE CITY.

I THINK HE'S OUR LONGEST SERVING P AND Z COMMISSIONER EVER.

AND REALLY, YOU KNOW, IF YOU LOOK AT SOUTHLAKE, YOU LOOK AT THE NEIGHBORHOODS, YOU LOOK AT THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, OFFICE, RETAIL, WHATEVER.

HE'S HAD SUCH A BIG PART OF THAT AND MASTER PLANNING EVEN SIGNAGE.

AND SO I JUST WANTED TO RECOGNIZE HIM OR HONOR HIM FOR THAT AWARD THAT HE WAS PRESENTED A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO.

HE REALLY IS A SPECIAL PERSON TO DEDICATE THAT MUCH TIME IN HIS SERVICE TO THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE.

SO, COMMISSIONER SPRINGER, THANK YOU AND CONGRATULATIONS.

ALL RIGHT. NEXT UP IS ITEM THREE B, THE CITY MANAGER'S REPORT.

[3.B. City Manager’s Report]

YES. THANK YOU. MAYOR.

WE'VE HAD A VERY BUSY SPRING SEASON AT CHAMPION'S CLUB.

SO TONIGHT I'D LIKE TO INVITE OPERATIONS.

CHAMPION'S CLUB OPERATIONS MANAGER AMY BENNETT, FORWARD, WHO IS GOING TO RECAP ALL OF THE GREAT STUFF THAT HAPPENED OVER THE SPRING SEASON, INCLUDING OUR MEMBER APPRECIATION WEEK.

WE THAT WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL.

SO TAKE IT AWAY, AMY.

GREAT. SO I'VE GOT A CREW COMING BEHIND ME.

SO SO THANKS FOR HAVING US OUT TONIGHT.

SO BEFORE WE KIND OF GO IN, I WANTED TO USE THE CHAMPIONS CUP TEAM I'VE GOT WITH ME BECAUSE ALL I'M SPEAKING, THESE ARE REALLY THE GUYS THAT ARE KIND OF DOING THE WORK DAY IN AND DAY OUT AND DOING THE GREAT THINGS FOR OUR MEMBERS.

SO WE'VE GOT RYAN TOMPKINS, OUR FITNESS SUPERVISOR, ANNA VALDEZ, OUR RENTALS COORDINATOR VANESSA SANCHEZ, OUR MEMBERSHIP SERVICE COORDINATOR, AND THEN ZACH MILLER, OUR AQUATICS SUPERVISOR.

AND WE ALSO HAVE HEIDI MIRANDA, WHO COULDN'T BE HERE TODAY.

SHE'S OUR GUEST SERVICES SUPERVISOR.

SO ONE OF THE KIND OF INTERESTING THINGS ABOUT CHAMPIONS RIGHT NOW IS THAT WE'VE HAD A LOT OF TRANSITION HERE AT THE COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT.

AND SO ACTUALLY ALL OF US, MYSELF INCLUDED, EVEN THOUGH I'VE BEEN WITH THE CITY, ARE REALLY NEW TO OUR ROLE.

I THINK THE MOST TENURED PERSON MIGHT BE ABOUT NINE MONTHS.

SO KIND OF THE NEAT THING ABOUT US RIGHT NOW IS WE'VE DONE A LOT, AND I'VE BEEN REALLY EXCITED ABOUT HOW THIS TEAM HAS KIND OF EMBRACED CHAMPIONS CLUB AND THE MEMBERSHIP, BUT I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT WE'VE GOT COMING FORWARD.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALWAYS KIND OF THAT LEARNING AND GETTING FAMILIAR WITH IT, AND THEN YOU HAVE THAT ABILITY TO KIND OF APPLY THAT KNOWLEDGE AND RUN WITH IT.

SO I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO IN THE NEXT YEAR, BUT YOU CAN AT LEAST SEE WHAT WE'VE DONE SO FAR.

LET ME SEE. AND SO JUST KIND OF GIVE YOU GUYS A QUICK UPDATE.

SOME STATS FOR MEMBERSHIPS.

SO CURRENTLY CHAMPIONS CLUBS COST RECOVERY IS AT 84.6.

84.06%. AND SO CHAMPS COST RECOVERY MAKES UP A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE MARKS COST RECOVERY.

SO THE FACT THAT WE'RE SO AHEAD OF TARGET AND ACHIEVING THAT IS REALLY KEY FOR THE MARK MEETING THEIR COST RECOVERY AS WELL.

SO CURRENTLY WE'RE AT 3628 MEMBERSHIP UNITS.

AND SO HOW CHAMPIONS CLUB DEFINES A MEMBERSHIP UNIT IS THE INDIVIDUAL MEMBERSHIP ITSELF.

SO IF YOU THINK ABOUT WE'VE GOT A FAMILY MEMBERSHIP THAT'S ACTUALLY ONE UNIT FOR US.

SO WE'VE GOT 3628 UNITS.

BUT THAT EQUATES TO ABOUT 12,500 UNIQUE MEMBERS.

SO THERE'S A LOT OF INDIVIDUALS THAT ACTUALLY COME INTO THE FACILITY IN THAT REGARD.

AS FAR AS OUR BREAKUP, WE'RE AT 85% RESIDENT, ABOUT 15% NONRESIDENT, AND THAT HAS STAYED PRETTY CONSISTENT THE LAST 2 TO 3 YEARS FOR US.

[00:55:01]

OUR BREAKDOWN FOR FAMILIES, ABOUT 64% FAMILY AND 30% INDIVIDUAL.

AND WE'VE ACTUALLY SEEN A LITTLE BIT OF A CHANGE FOR THIS THE PAST YEAR.

PREVIOUSLY WE WERE A LITTLE BIT MORE 66% FAMILY, AND WE'VE SEEN IT BE MORE INDIVIDUAL THIS LAST YEAR TURNOVER.

SO I THINK IT'S PROBABLY MORE WE'VE HAD MORE INDIVIDUALS JOIN PER SE THAN SOMEONE FLIPPING FROM FAMILY INDIVIDUAL, WHICH IS AN INTERESTING CHANGE FOR US THIS YEAR.

AND THEN WE'VE STAYED SO CONSISTENT ON THE 94% MONTH AND MONTH RETENTION, AND THAT'S REALLY KUDOS TO THIS TEAM.

BUT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'VE SEEN YEAR OVER YEAR.

SO THAT'S NOT JUST THIS YEAR SO FAR, BUT THAT'S YEAR OVER YEAR.

WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO RETAIN THAT 94%.

AND THEN AS FAR AS OUR VISITS.

SO THIS IS JUST FROM JANUARY 1ST OF THIS YEAR.

SO WE'RE REALLY JUST LOOKING AT THE SPRING.

WE'VE AVERAGED ABOUT 7600 VISITS PER WEEK, WHICH IS ACTUALLY ALMOST A 14% INCREASE FROM 2023.

SO WE'RE BUSY.

YOU KNOW, WE DEFINITELY HAVE OUR PEAK TIMES.

I THINK THE COMMUNITY IS STARTING TO UNDERSTAND THAT.

BUT WE'VE DONE A GREAT JOB OF COMMUNICATING THAT ON THE WEBSITE.

WE'RE ALWAYS LOOKING AT OUR FITNESS FLOOR AND SEEING HOW CAN WE REPOSITION THINGS, HOW CAN WE ADJUST EQUIPMENT, HOW CAN WE BUY MORE SPACE, BUY MORE ABILITY, PUSH PEOPLE TO DIFFERENT AREAS IN THE FACILITY? SO WE'RE REALLY WORKING ON THAT.

I DON'T THINK WE'VE GOT AS MUCH CONCERNS AS FAR AS SPACES WE HAVE IN PREVIOUS YEARS BEFORE WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE SOME CHANGES AND THEN JUST KIND OF SOME OF THE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGNS WE'VE DONE. SO WE DO A BLACK FRIDAY CYBER MONDAY CAMPAIGN EVERY YEAR.

OBVIOUSLY, WE DID OUR JANUARY NEW YEAR CAMPAIGN TO COINCIDE WITH NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS.

WE DO A LITTLE CAMPAIGN OVER MEMBERSHIP APPRECIATION WEEK, KIND OF A LITTLE BONUS.

SOMEBODY JOINS DURING THAT TIME FRAME.

AND THEN WE JUST LAUNCHED.

WE DIDN'T JUST LAUNCH. IT'S FURTHER INTO MAY THAN I REALIZE.

WE LAUNCHED OUR MAY CAMPAIGN MAY 1ST AND SAW ABOUT MIDWAY THROUGH THAT.

AT THIS POINT, THOSE ARE KIND OF OUR BIG CAMPAIGNS WE DO FOR THE YEAR.

AND THEN MEMBER APPRECIATION WEEK.

SO THIS IS REALLY KIND OF OUR ANNUAL, YOU KNOW, BIRTHDAY BASH ANNIVERSARY.

WE CALL IT MEMBER APPRECIATION WEEK.

SO IT'S OUR TIME TO JUST KIND OF RECOGNIZE AND THANK ALL OF OUR MEMBERS FOR EVERYTHING THAT THEY DO FOR US.

OBVIOUSLY, WE WOULDN'T SURVIVE AS AN ORGANIZATION.

WE DIDN'T HAVE THE MEMBERS BEHIND TO SUPPORT US, SO WE PUT ON EVERYTHING THE WHOLE WEEK.

SO IT'S AN ARRAY OF, YOU KNOW, FREE FOOD.

WE DO THEMED THEMED GROUP FITNESS CLASSES.

WE'LL DO RAFFLE TICKETS AT GROUP FITNESS CLASSES.

WE HAD A FAMILY LINE DANCING EVENT ON SUNDAY TO KIND OF KICK US OFF.

WE HAD THE FIREFIGHTER AND DPS VISIT US IN CHILD WATCH.

WE HAD CREATURE TEACHER COME OUT IN CHILD WATCH.

WE DID A FREE ARCHERY CLASS WITH SOME OF OUR ARCHERY PROGRAMS, AND THEN OF COURSE, WE KICK EVERYTHING OFF AT THE END OF THE WEEK WITH OUR BIG MEMBER BASH, WHICH IS REALLY JUST A REALLY COOL EVENT.

THAT'S PROBABLY THE FAVORITE THING THAT WE DO THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE 12,500 MEMBERS, MEMBER BASH MAKES IT FEEL LIKE YOU'RE THE ONLY MEMBER THERE.

IT REALLY COMES BACK TO COMMUNITY.

IT REALLY COMES BACK TO THAT KIND OF SMALL TOWN FEEL.

YOU KNOW, ONE THING I TALK ABOUT IS WE ACTUALLY LITERALLY GO OUT AND WE GRILL HOT DOGS AND HAMBURGERS AND THERE'S 500 PEOPLE COME OUT, BUT IT'S LIKE YOUR BACKYARD BARBECUE AND PEOPLE LOVE IT. IT'S A GREAT SPACE FOR THEM TO KIND OF COME OUT, HANG FREE FOOD, FREE DRINKS, PLAY WITH YOUR KIDS AND KIND OF ENJOY THAT COMMUNITY ATMOSPHERE WITH IT.

SO WE LOVE IT.

OUR MEMBERS LOVE IT.

THAT'S PROBABLY THE ONE PROGRAM WE GET THE MOST AMOUNT OF FEEDBACK BACK IS JUST WE THEY REALLY ENJOY BEING OUT THERE AND JUST HAVING THAT ENVIRONMENT, HAVING THAT OPPORTUNITY TO SPEND WITH THEIR THEIR FAMILIES.

SO IT WAS A GREAT MEMBER APPRECIATION WEEK.

TECHNICALLY, IT WAS OUR FIFTH YEAR.

IT'S KIND OF JUST, YOU KNOW, WE DON'T MIND THAT FIRST YEAR WITH COVID, BUT THAT WAS REALLY GREAT TO BE ABLE TO CELEBRATE FIVE YEARS AND KIND OF SEE WHERE WE'VE KIND OF WHERE WE'VE GROWN AS A AS A ORGANIZATION AND THEN FITNESS HAPPENINGS.

SO WE'VE HAD A BUSY SPRING WITH FITNESS.

SO WE WRAPPED UP OUR OUTDOOR FITNESS SERIES THIS SPRING IN APRIL.

SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE'VE WE'VE DONE THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

AND IT'S REALLY A GREAT PROGRAM BECAUSE IT KIND OF IS THAT MIRRORED BETWEEN IT'S A COMMUNITY OUTREACH WITH WE HAVE CHAMPIONS CLUB INSTRUCTORS GO OUT AND TEACH THESE PROGRAMS. WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE CHAMPIONS CLUB MEMBERS PARTICIPATE, BUT WE ALSO HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT CHAMPIONS CLUB MEMBERS.

SO IT'S KIND OF IT'S THAT WHOLE MIX OF BEING ABLE TO GET OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AND AGAIN AND TALK ABOUT CHAMPIONS AND THE THINGS THAT WE OFFER THERE.

WE DID OUR FITNESS ASSET REPLACEMENT PLAN.

SO WE'VE GOT A PICTURE OF THE SPIN BIKES DOWN THERE.

OBVIOUSLY THE ASSET REPLACEMENT PLAN, WE HAVE IT BUDGETED EVERY SINGLE YEAR TO REPLACE SOME DIFFERENT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT AT CHAMPIONS CLUB.

SO THIS YEAR WE DID OUR SPIN BIKES.

AND THEN WE'VE GOT TO ALSO SET UP TO DO OUR RECOMBINANT UPRIGHTS AND OUR STAIR MILLS.

SO THE SPIN BIKES CAME IN IN APRIL.

WE WERE ABLE TO LINE THAT UP WITH MEMBER APPRECIATION WEEKS.

WE KIND OF DID IT AS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT TO THEM.

AND THEN THE OTHER PIECES WILL BE HERE NEXT WEEK.

SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AND HAVING THAT FITNESS REPLACEMENT REALLY IS KEY TO KEEPING THAT MEMBERSHIP ENGAGED, BECAUSE IT SHOWS THE COMMITMENT THAT THE CITY HAS TO KEEPING THE FACILITY UP TO DATE, TO MAKING SURE THAT THE EQUIPMENT IS NOT GETTING WORN OUT BEFORE IT'S NOT READY, THOSE KIND OF THING.

SO THAT'S REALLY KEY TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT PIECE OF IT.

SUMMERBREAK FACILITY GUIDELINES.

SO I'M SURE YOU GUYS ARE AWARE OF SOME OF BREAK STARTS ON FRIDAY.

SO WE'VE ALREADY BEEN GEARED UP FOR IT.

WE KNOW THAT THE KIDS ARE GOING TO BE OUT AT CHAMPIONS CLUB.

SO WE'VE BEEN KIND OF TAKING A SPECIAL INITIATIVE TO REALLY PUT SOME COMMUNICATION PIECES OUT THERE, NOT JUST WITH THE KIDS THEMSELVES AND EXPLAINING FACILITY EXPECTATIONS AND AGE EXPECTATIONS, BUT ALSO TRYING TO GET STUFF TO THE PARENTS AS WELL, BECAUSE WE REALIZE THAT AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE'RE NOT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT HERE TO BE RULE ENFORCERS.

[01:00:01]

AND SO SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T KNOW OUR RULES.

SOMETIMES THEY'RE NOT AWARE OF WHAT THE AGE REQUIREMENTS ARE, EITHER FROM THE CHILDREN OR FROM THE PARENTS.

SO IT'S ONE THING WE STARTED WITH IS TO GET THAT OUT THERE AND JUST START TALKING TO PEOPLE ON THE FLOOR AND KIND OF INFORMING THEM WHAT'S GOING ON, AND THEN I DON'T WANT TO TALK TOO MUCH ABOUT IT, BUT WE WANT FIT CITY.

SO IT'S A PRETTY PROUD ACHIEVEMENT FOR US AGAIN THIS YEAR.

SO WE'LL BE BACK IN JUNE, OBVIOUSLY, TO DO THE OFFICIAL AWARD RECOGNITION AND HAVE THE TROPHY AND EVERYTHING.

BUT WE COULDN'T NOT PUT IT ON THERE BECAUSE IT IS A PRETTY BIG AWARD.

SO AND THEN AQUATICS AND PARTIES.

SO AQUATICS THERE FOR WATER SAFETY.

I'M SORRY FOR SOUTHLAKE WATER SAFETY.

SO MAY IS, IS WATER SAFETY MONTH.

SO WE'VE BEEN DOING SOME MESSAGING ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA JUST TO PUT OUT SOME MORE WATER SAFETY COMMUNICATION PIECES.

AND THEN WE'VE ALSO GOT SOME TIMES THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE AT COMMUNITY EVENTS.

SO THE PICTURE UP THERE IS FROM US BEING AT RUN FOR LEASE.

SO WE HAD ALL OF OUR WATER SAFETY STUFF OUT THERE IN ADDITION TO CHAMPIONS CLUB.

AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO BE HERE AT THE LIBRARY.

SUMMER READING KICK OFF THIS FRIDAY TO DO SOME SOME MESSAGING AS WELL.

AND THEN WHAT'S NEW FOR US THIS YEAR IS WE'RE GOING TO DO THE WATER SAFETY DAY, JUNE 29TH.

THIS IS A NEW PROGRAM FOR US.

SO I'M REALLY EXCITED ABOUT WHAT ZACH AND HIS TEAM ARE GOING TO COME UP WITH IT.

WE'RE JUST TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO REALLY GET THAT WATER SAFETY MESSAGING REALLY OUT TO THE COMMUNITY AND AGAIN, OUT TO FAMILIES.

SO IT'S WATER SAFETY IS NOT JUST ABOUT TEACHING THE KIDS WHAT SAFETY.

IT'S ALSO ABOUT TEACHING PARENTS TO MAKE SURE THEY KNOW ARE THEY WATCHING THEIR KIDS? HAVE THEY GOT THE RIGHT EDUCATION PIECES, THE RIGHT PIECES OF EQUIPMENT AT THEIR FACILITIES AS WELL? SO I'M EXCITED TO SEE HOW THAT ONE TURNS OUT AND THEN PARTIES.

SO WE'LL BRAG ON ON HERE FOR A SECOND.

SO WE TOTALLY REVAMPED OUR PARTIES.

IT HAD BEEN THE END OF LAST SUMMER, AND THEN ANA ACTUALLY TOOK OVER JUST IN SEPTEMBER.

SO SHE'S DONE A PHENOMENAL JOB OF REALLY GETTING OUR PARTIES TO JUST AT THE.

HIGHEST LEVEL OF OPERATIONS.

AND SO UP UNTIL APRIL AND MAY, WE WERE DOING AROUND 2021 PARTIES PER MONTH.

AND APRIL WE BLEW IT OUT OF THE WATER WITH 29.

MAY'S BEEN CRAZY.

WE'VE HAD 37 PARTIES THIS MONTH AND JUST IT'S ASTOUNDING POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

SO THE NPS SCORE WE PUT ON THERE WAS 97.

IF YOU GUYS ARE FAMILIAR WITH NPS, IT'S ACTUALLY A 200 POINT SCALE.

SO IT GOES FROM -100 TO POSITIVE 100.

SO THE FACT THAT WE HAVE A 97 JUST REALLY SPEAKS TO HOW HAPPY PEOPLE ARE WITH OUR PROGRAMING.

AND IT'S NOT JUST LIKE WE'VE GOT OH, YOU ONLY PUT IN, YOU KNOW, 2 OR 3 COMMENT CARDS EVERY SINGLE WEEK FROM EVERY SINGLE PARTY.

WE'RE GETTING COMMENT CARDS BACK AND THEY'RE ALWAYS FANTASTIC.

THEY SPEAK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, HOW ORGANIZED IT IS, HOW PROFESSIONAL OUR STAFF IS, HOW HELPFUL ARE PART TIME STAFF IS THAT ARE HELPING OUT WITH THE PARTY ATTENDANCE AND JUST HOW WONDERFUL MEMORIES WE'VE MADE WITH THESE INDIVIDUALS.

AND SO PARTIES IS REALLY KEY FOR US BECAUSE WE'VE RECOGNIZED THAT WITH PARTIES WE REALLY GET MORE BOOKINGS WITH REFERRALS.

SO SOMEBODY WHO CAME TO A BIRTHDAY PARTY AND HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH THEIR CHILD, NOW THEIR CHILD WANTS TO BOOK A PARTY WITH US.

SO IT'S KIND OF IT FOLDS ITSELF TO TWO TIMES WITH HAVING THOSE GREAT EXPERIENCES.

AND THEN WE'VE ALSO BROUGHT ON SOME NEW ENTERTAINMENT OPTIONS.

EXCUSE ME, WE'VE ADDED ON LIKE THE CREATURE FEATURE, WE'VE GOT A BALLOON ARTIST, NOW WE'VE GOT A MAGICIAN.

SO JUST SOME DIFFERENT OPTIONS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE PREVIOUSLY WITH OUR PARTY PACKAGES.

SO BEFORE I KIND OF WRAP IT UP A LITTLE BIT, I DID WANT TO SAY LIKE, THIS IS AN AMAZING TEAM BEHIND ME.

I GUESS WITH ME, LIKE I SAID, I'VE BEEN REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THINGS THEY'VE DONE, ESPECIALLY COMING IN NEW AND REALLY JUST LIKE I SAID, EMBRACING EVERYTHING THAT WE DO.

SO EVEN THOUGH I'M THE ONE THAT'S TALKING, THEY'RE THE ONES THAT REALLY GET THE CREDIT AND THE ACCLAIM FOR IT.

I'M JUST KIND OF THE OFFICIAL SPEAKER, SO WE APPRECIATE YOU GUYS HAVING US OUT TODAY.

IS THERE ANY ANY QUESTIONS FOR US? THANK YOU FOR THAT GREAT PRESENTATION.

I MEAN, THE PROGRAMING AND THE EVENTS, YOU KNOW, TOP NOTCH.

AND I THINK THAT'S PROVED BY THE GREAT NUMBERS AS FAR AS MEMBERSHIP AND THE DOLLARS AND CENTS.

SO THANK YOU FOR FOR EVERYONE ON THE TEAM FOR THE GREAT WORK YOU'RE DOING.

ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL? I'LL JUST JUMP IN HERE REALLY QUICK.

I'M PRETTY CERTAIN I'M THE MOST APPRECIATIVE PERSON IN THE CITY FOR THE MARK, BECAUSE IT.

WHEN WE MOVED HERE IN 2014, I PUT A POWERLIFTING GYM IN AND I WOULD NOT PUT AN AIR CONDITIONER OR HEATER IN.

SO MY WIFE FINDS OUT A LAMENTABLE FACT.

WHAT SAVES MY LIFE IS THAT SHE GETS TO WORK OUT WITH MISS JULIE WALTER, AND WHEN SHE DOESN'T DO THAT, SHE COMES TO THE MARK.

SO THANK YOU ALL FOR SAVING MY LIFE.

ANYTIME. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU GUYS. WE APPRECIATE IT.

YES, MAYOR. I WAS JUST GOING TO MAKE A COMMENT TOO.

IT'S AMAZING HOW MUCH TIME HAS PASSED.

I REMEMBER SITTING JUST ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THIS DAIS WHEN WE ENVISIONED THE CHAMPIONS CLUB AND ENVISIONED THE MARK AND LEGENDS HALL, AND IT WAS JUST A VISION.

IT WAS IT WAS LIKE, GOSH, ARE WE REALLY GOING TO DO THIS? AND YOU KNOW THE MARK HOW DOES THAT RESONATE? BUT IT'S IT IS NOW.

IT'S JUST A DESTINATION.

AND I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT IN MY HOUSE WHEN THE KIDS ARE ALL HOME AND YOU HEAR YOU HEAR THEM ON THE PHONE, HEY, YOU WANT ME TO MARK? YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST IT'S A DESTINATION.

IT'S A IT'S THE FABRIC OF OUR COMMUNITY, WHICH AND WHICH IS FANTASTIC.

BUT WE WANT TO COMPLIMENT ALL YOU GUYS.

YOU KNOW, THAT BUILDING NOW, YOU KNOW, HAS GOT A LITTLE BIT OF AGE TO IT.

BUT YET YOU WALK IN AND IT'S SO CLEAN AND IT'S DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER GYM OR FACILITY I'VE BEEN TO.

THERE'S NO SMELL. IT SMELLS CLEAN AND THAT'S, THAT'S WELCOMING TO PEOPLE.

THAT EITHER MEANS WE NEED TO WORK HARDER OR OR YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GOOD JOB.

AND I OPT TO SAY YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB BECAUSE BECAUSE I KNOW FOLKS ARE UP THERE WORKING HARD.

AND THE LAST THING I WOULD MENTION IS, I KNOW THERE WAS A LOT OF CONVERSATION WHEN THIS WAS APPROVED.

[01:05:03]

JUST THE BIG DECISION ON A FINANCIAL PROJECT LIKE THAT IS CAN WE THREAD THE NEEDLE APPROPRIATELY ON ON HOW MUCH WE'RE ABLE TO RECOLLECT? CAN THIS BE A SELF-SUFFICIENT FACILITY? AND YOU GUYS ARE HITTING THE TARGET AT 84%? I MEAN, THAT'S THAT I THINK THAT'S ABOUT WHAT WE ENVISIONED.

AND TO ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO DO THAT IS REMARKABLE.

AND ALSO YOU'RE KEEPING IT WHERE IT'S NOT COST PROHIBITIVE, WHICH IS HUGE TO FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS.

SO THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU.

THANKS TO THE HUMBLE PERSON BEHIND YOU, DIRECTOR MILLER BACK THERE.

I KNOW HE HAS A BIG PART OF THAT AS WELL, BUT YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB.

THANKS. THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANKS.

THANK YOU, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

THAT'S THE ONLY OTHER ITEM THAT WE HAVE IS NOTING THAT THE MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT IS PROVIDED IN YOUR PACKET, AND WE ALL HAVE THAT IN OUR PACKET AND CAN LOOK AT THAT.

ALL RIGHT. NEXT WE'LL GO TO OUR BACK TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA.

[CONSENT AGENDA]

IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR ANYTHING ON THAT.

AND IF NOT, WE'LL TAKE A MOTION FROM DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM KATHY TALLEY ON THE CONSENT AGENDA.

YES, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA, WHICH IS ITEMS FOUR A THROUGH L, NOTING THAT FOUR B WAS LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY ON FOUR F.

I'M GOING TO READ THE NAMES OF THOSE THAT THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING BE THE FOCUS GROUP, THE VETERAN, THE MEMBERS OF THE VETERANS MEMORIAL FOCUS GROUP.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. WE HAVE A MOTION.

OH THAT'S RIGHT. YEAH.

SO JUST AMENDING THAT MOTION AND SECONDING.

ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE A MOTION, AND WE HAVE A SECOND.

LET'S VOTE. AND IT LOOKS LIKE THAT MOTION CARRIES SEVEN ZERO.

ALL RIGHT. NEXT UP IS OUR PUBLIC FORUM.

PUBLIC FORUM ALLOWS THE PUBLIC TO BRING ITEMS FORWARD THAT ARE NOT INCLUDED ON OUR REGULAR AGENDA.

IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON AN ITEM THAT'S NOT ON OUR REGULAR AGENDA? ALL RIGHT. SEEING NONE, WE'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC FORUM.

NEXT UP, AS PROMISED LAST TIME, WE'RE GOING TO TAKE UP ITEM SIX A AND SIX B TOGETHER.

[Items 6.A & 6.B]

SO ANY NEW INFORMATION OR ANY CHANGES SINCE TWO WEEKS AGO AND THEN WE'LL MOVE ON.

CERTAINLY THE I THINK THE, THE ONLY CHANGES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE IS WITH THIS EVENING'S PRESENTATION, THE APPLICANT I'M GOING TO JUMP SLIDES HERE.

ADDED SOME ADDITIONAL ELEVATIONS OR RENDERINGS FOR REFERENCE WITH REGARD TO THE OFFICE PROJECT.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL RENDERING, AND THEY HAVE PROVIDED SOME ADDITIONAL RENDERINGS WITH A PALETTE OF MATERIALS THAT THEY WOULD LIKE CONSIDERED AS OPTIONS AND ANY CONSIDERATION OF THIS ITEM AND THEIR INSPIRATION FOR SOME OF THOSE COME FROM TOWN SQUARE AND THE PARK VILLAGE SHOPPING CENTER.

ONE OTHER ITEM OF CLARIFICATION IN YOUR PACKET.

OUR THIRD PARTY TRAFFIC ENGINEERING TEAM REVIEWED THE SPECIFICALLY THE TURN LANE THAT WAS PROPOSED WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT AND THE CHANGES THAT WOULD BE OCCURRING ALONG CARROLL AVENUE.

[01:10:03]

SO THAT'S THE ONLY NEW OR DIFFERENT INFORMATION FROM TWO WEEKS AGO.

CORRECT. AND FROM THIS POINT, I'D BE HAPPY TO REFER BACK TO ANY OTHER SLIDES THAT YOU WOULD LIKE FOR REFERENCE AS YOU CONTINUE.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH? ALL RIGHT. WE'LL PROBABLY CALL UPON YOU LATER.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. MOVING ALONG.

WE'LL ASK THE APPLICANT TO COME UP FOR THEIR PRESENTATION.

AND I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE.

MAYBE YOUR FIRST TIME HERE AT CITY COUNCIL, WE KIND OF RUN THE MEETINGS, LIKE, ALMOST LIKE A COURTROOM.

WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY APPLAUSE OR BOOING OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

YOU KNOW, EVERYONE'S GOING TO GET A CHANCE TO SPEAK LATER ON.

I KNOW WE HAD SOME ISSUES WITH THAT LAST TIME, BUT THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT'S NO PROBLEM.

BUT EVERYONE'S GOING TO GET THEIR TURN, SO WE'LL HAVE THE APPLICANT FIRST, AND THEN WE'LL GET TO THE PUBLIC HEARING.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR. MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL.

MY NAME IS CURTIS YOUNG WITH THE SAGE GROUP.

1130 NORTH CARROLL IN SOUTHLAKE.

A GOOD EVENING.

I'M TRAVIS FRANKS.

775 LAKEWOOD.

WILLOW TREE CUSTOM HOMES.

THANK YOU. GOOD TO BE BEFORE YOU AGAIN.

THIS EVENING, WE TALKED ABOUT THIS AT LENGTH A MONTH OR SO AGO AT FIRST READING, AND WE GOT SOME INPUT FROM MANY OF YOU.

SOME OF YOU WEREN'T HERE, SO I'LL JUST KIND OF GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS THE SIZE 9.2 ACRES DIRECTLY ACROSS FROM SOUTHLAKE TOWN SQUARE WHICH IS MOSTLY COMMERCIAL CERTAINLY IN THIS PART OF IT.

SO WE FELT THAT IT WOULD BE A GOOD BUFFER, IF YOU WILL, BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF OUR DEVELOPMENT AND SOUTHLAKE TOWN SQUARE, TO HAVE AN OFFICE BUILDING ALONG CARROLL CONSISTENT WITH PROBABLY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT TO THE SOUTH OF US AS WELL.

BOTH NORTH CARROLL AVENUE AND SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD ARE DIVIDED ROADS THOROUGHFARES ON THE CITY.

THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN FOR THIS AREA IS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL.

WE ARE REQUESTING WITH THIS REQUEST THE OFFICE PORTION BE CHANGED TO OFFICE COMMERCIAL, SIMILAR TO THE PURPLE AREA TO THE SOUTH OF US.

EXISTING ZONING IS BASICALLY UN ZONED AG AND SF ONE ZONING CURRENTLY.

THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL PLAN THAT WE HAD.

IT WAS ALL VISUAL ARTS.

ALLEY SERVED WITH A BEAUTIFUL MEDIAN IN THE MIDDLE FOR THE RESIDENTIAL 26,000 SQUARE FOOT OFFICE BUILDING ON CARROLL.

WE TOOK THIS TO P AND Z.

THERE WERE THERE WERE SOME INPUT AND QUESTIONS THEY HAD FOR US THERE.

WE MADE SOME REVISIONS TO THAT TO MAKE THE ENTRY A LITTLE BIT, WORK A LITTLE BIT BETTER OFF OF CAROL.

NO PARKING WITHIN A THE STACKING AREA AND REDUCE THE NUMBER OF VILLA UNITS FROM 28 TO 26.

OTHERWISE IT STILL HAD THE MEDIAN BETWEEN THE THE VILLA UNITS AND IT WAS STILL THE SAME, SAME PROGRAM.

THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE POTENTIAL FUTURE CROSS ACCESS BETWEEN THE OFFICE SITE AND THE OTHER OFFICE SITES TO THE SOUTH OF US.

WHEN YOU KNOW, THOSE DEVELOP.

SO WE'RE STUBBING A DRIVE RIGHT HERE.

TO FACILITATE THAT IF AND WHEN THIS EVER DEVELOPS AS SUCH.

THIS WAS DEVELOPED AFTER THE FIRST READING THAT WE HAD WITH YOU FOLKS, AND IT TRIED TO DO SEVERAL THINGS.

AND A LOT OF THIS WAS INSPIRED BY CONVERSATIONS WITH SOME OF THE NEIGHBORS AND THEIR DESIRE FOR YOU KNOW, TO MINIMIZE THE FLOW ONTO CROSS LANE WITH TRAFFIC FROM HERE, BUT ALSO WITH STAFF AND GOOD PLANNING DESIRE TO HAVE CROSS LANE NOT BE JUST A DEAD END RIGHT NOW WITHOUT A TURNAROUND.

STAFF HAS ALWAYS TOLD US THAT THEY THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR THERE TO BE A TURNAROUND.

[01:15:01]

HAVE A NORMAL TURNAROUND AND HAVE THIS KIND OF APPARATUS OPERATE AS SIMILAR SINGLE FAMILY TO WHAT'S TO THE WEST OF IT.

THE RETENTION POND WOULD BE HERE, AND THE POSSIBILITY FOR AN EMERGENCY ONLY GATE HERE, WHICH WOULD DISALLOW TRAFFIC COMING FROM EITHER THE OFFICE OR THIS AREA THROUGH HERE, WHICH WAS SOMETHING IN OUR DISCUSSIONS, WAS IMPORTANT TO MANY OF OUR NEIGHBORS TO THE WEST.

AND WHAT WE LIKED ABOUT THIS IS IT STILL ALLOWED US TO HAVE THE VILLA UNITS IN HERE.

AND FROM A PLANNING STANDPOINT, I'VE ALWAYS SAID IT'S IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO MAKE THE TRANSITION BETWEEN LOT SIZES OR PRODUCTS OVER THE BACK FENCE RATHER THAN THE FRONT FENCE.

AND WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS IS THAT THIS LOOKS AT A LIKE UNIT BEFORE IT.

THE VILLA UNITS ARE AROUND THE CENTER MEDIAN AREA IN HERE.

AND THEN THE MORE NORMAL SINGLE FAMILY LOTS ARE ACROSS FROM EACH OTHER AS WELL, BUT THERE'S STILL A BUFFER BETWEEN THE TWO.

BUT THIS WOULD BE EMERGENCY ACCESS, SO THERE'S THERE'S NO NEED FOR A SECOND POINT.

ACCESS. THERE WOULD STILL BE A GATE HERE, AS WE'VE ALWAYS SHOWN.

AND OF COURSE, THIS OFFICE BUILDING IS NOW 23,000FT².

I BELIEVE THAT THIS ADDRESSED A LOT OF THE COMMENTS THAT WE HEARD FROM YOU ALL AT AT FIRST READING.

THERE WERE SOME COMMENTS THAT TALKED ABOUT WHAT IF WE WERE TO DO THE TRANSITION KIND OF NORTH TO SOUTH, PUT NORMAL SINGLE FAMILY FRONT LOADED LOTS ALONG THE NORTHERN TIER, STILL DO THE MEDIAN IN THERE, AND THEN PUT ALL THE THE VILLA LOTS WITH THE ALLEY ALONG THE SOUTH SIDE WHERE THE ALLEY WOULD BE NEXT TO THE OFFICE BUILDINGS.

SO TO ADDRESS THAT AND MAKE SURE THAT THAT WE TOOK A LOOK AT THAT AS REQUESTED.

THAT'S WHAT THIS PLAN IS HERE.

WE WE'D BE WILLING TO DO THIS IF THIS IS ALL WHAT YOU GUYS WANT, BUT WE PREFER WE PREFER THIS PLAN HERE. WE THINK IT'S JUST GOING TO MAKE FOR A BETTER NEIGHBORHOOD AND A BETTER ATMOSPHERE IN THIS AREA.

AND WE REALLY THINK THIS IS FROM A PLANNING STANDPOINT AND FROM THE END RESULT NEIGHBORHOOD STANDPOINT, A A HIGHER QUALITY PLAN.

BUT ANYWAY YOU KNOW, THE LEFT TURN LANE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT, THIS HAS BEEN DESIGNED IT'S BEEN REVIEWED BY OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER.

IT'S BEEN REVIEWED BY STAFF'S CONSULTANT.

AND I THINK CLEARLY THIS IS A BETTER SOLUTION THAN HAVING PEOPLE GO UP TO PROSPECT OR FEDERAL AND MAKE A U-TURN, AND IT'S DEEMED TO BE A SAFE WAY TO DO THIS.

SO THAT'S PART OF OUR PROPOSAL.

AGAIN, IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS ON DRAINAGE, WE REALLY DIDN'T GET INTO THAT.

WE HAVE OUR ENGINEER HERE TO TALK ABOUT THAT FROM, YOU KNOW, AN ARCHITECTURE POINT OF VIEW.

THESE ARE GOING TO BE FIRST QUALITY ALL THE WAY DOWN.

VERY, VERY NICE UNITS.

WE REALLY SEE THAT THERE IS A TREMENDOUS NEED FOR NOT ONLY MORE QUALITY OFFICE BUILDING THAT WOULD BE ON CARROLL HERE. BUT ULTIMATELY IN THE RESIDENTIAL AREA FOR THESE VILLA UNITS. AND, YOU KNOW, WHETHER THAT'S FOR EMPTY NESTERS OR WHETHER THAT'S FOR PEOPLE THAT LIVE IN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE THAT DON'T WANT A BIG YARD TO TAKE CARE OF BUT STILL WANT TO LIVE IN SOUTHLAKE AND STILL WANT AN EXTREMELY HIGH QUALITY PRODUCT TO LIVE IN.

WE SEE THESE AS, AS, AS BEING SOMETHING THAT'S, THAT'S IN VERY, VERY HIGH DEMAND AND WOULD BE A QUALITY ADDITION TO THE TOWN.

AGAIN, THEY'RE BEHIND A GATE, NICELY LANDSCAPED, BEAUTIFUL ARCHITECTURE.

THE RETENTION POND THE CENTER MEDIAN WILL JUST BE ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS A PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO GATHER AND BUILD COMMUNITY.

KIND OF AN OVERVIEW OF THE RESIDENTIAL AREA HERE.

SO THIS IS THE PLAN WE'D LIKE TO PROPOSE TONIGHT, BUT WE'D LIKE TO HEAR YOUR COMMENTS AND AND ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

TRAVIS. FEEL FREE.

THANK YOU. I'M I'M THE COLOR MAN.

APPARENTLY. SO LET ME LET ME KIND OF DIVE INTO THIS A LITTLE BIT ON SOME CLARIFICATION.

ON THE COMMERCIAL SIDE OF THINGS THE RENDERINGS THAT WE SHOWED THAT THAT DENNIS SHOWED US EARLIER, WE'RE TOTALLY OPEN TO CONCEPTUALLY DESIGN AND DRAW WHAT YOU

[01:20:08]

OBVIOUSLY, WE HAVE TO STILL HAVE TO COME BACK IF THIS GETS APPROVED AND WE GET YOUR VOTE THAT WE HAVE TO GET THE SITE PLAN APPROVED.

THEREFORE, WE CAN GO THROUGH THE MATERIAL LIST AS WELL AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING FOR AS A COMMUNITY.

WE'RE THAT THIS IS A DESIGN THAT WE ARE MORE OF A PLACEHOLDER.

WE LIKE IT. IT WAS DEFINITELY KIND OF BUILT ALONG THE FORT WORTH STYLE OF MORE TRADITIONAL LAYOUT WITH MORE MODERN WINDOWS AGAIN, BUT MATERIAL WISE, NOTHING'S STUCK.

WE COULD CHANGE A LOT OF THINGS TO THAT DESIGN.

IF IF YOU GUYS SEE FIT ON THE COMMERCIAL SIDE, OKAY, ON THE RESIDENTIAL SIDE AGAIN, WHAT CURTIS WAS SAYING ON THE TRANSITIONAL SIDE, YOU KNOW, OUR GOAL ON THIS THING IS NOT ONLY TO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE ALWAYS PROVIDING A HIGH QUALITY BRAND FOR SOUTHLAKE.

THAT'S OUR NUMBER ONE GOAL.

AND I THINK EVERYBODY APPRECIATES THE HIGH QUALITY OF BRANDS THAT WE HAVE IN SOUTHLAKE, INCLUDING TOWN SQUARE, OUR SHOPPING, OUR RESTAURANTS, ESPECIALLY THE NEW ONES THAT HAVE COME ALONG CAROLINE PARK COMING ALONG AS WELL.

WE DO HAVE A TASTE FOR HIGH QUALITY STUFF, AND THAT'S WHAT THIS PROPOSAL IS FOR.

AGAIN, THIS PROPOSAL IS FOR OUR EMPTY NESTERS, PROBABLY OUR TARGET AUDIENCE WHICH I WOULD ASSUME WOULD BE THE GUYS THAT ARE NOW HAVING KIDS GO OFF TO COLLEGE, OR THEY HAVE NO MORE KIDS IN THEIR HOME, AND THEY DON'T WANT TO KEEP UP WITH THEIR LARGER HOME THAT THEY MOVED TO SOUTHLAKE, FOR WHICH WE HAVE PLENTY OF THE ONE PART OF IT, THOUGH, ON THESE EMPTY NESTERS SCENARIO. AND THIS IS MORE JUST A SALES PITCH, BUT YOU REALIZE OUR SALES, OUR EMPTY NESTERS, ARE OUR BEST DONORS IN OUR COMMUNITY.

THEY'RE OUR BEST VOLUNTEERS IN OUR COMMUNITY, AND THEY'RE REALLY THE ONES WHO INVEST IN OUR TOWN SQUARE AND TO OUR CITY THAT'S OUR EMPTY NESTERS ARE.

AND RIGHT NOW, WE DO NOT HAVE A PRODUCT, A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PRODUCTS FOR EMPTY NESTERS TO GO TO IF THEY WANT TO DOWNSIZE TO SOMETHING MORE OF THAT LIFESTYLE CHANGES OF THAT WHERE THEY CAN TRAVEL, THAT LOCK AND LEAF SCENARIO.

SO THIS IS WHY WE FEEL LIKE THIS IS IMPORTANT.

I, I OBVIOUSLY HAVE INVESTED HEAVILY IN THIS TOWN.

I MEAN, WE'RE VERY ROOTED IN THIS TOWN.

I BUILD HOMES. SO I HAVE I CAN CREATE FAMILIES.

I CAN CREATE FAMILIES THAT HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE IN.

I MEAN, I'M PLAYING TO THE MARK SCENARIO, THE CHAMPIONS CLUB.

I MEAN, WE WON'T HAVE KIDS THERE IF WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE HOMES TO BUILD.

WE HAVE BEEN IN A DECLINE IF WE DON'T HAVE YOUNGER GENERATIONAL KIDS TO MOVE UP IN THIS TOWN.

AND I THINK THIS FILLS A VOID OF LIFESTYLE CHANGES FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN HERE A LONG TIME AND POTENTIALLY NEW PEOPLE MOVING HERE.

SO I WANTED TO SAY THAT THAT I THINK THE TRAFFIC ISSUE HAS HAS BEEN IF YOU GUYS HAVE TRAFFIC, WE DO HAVE OUR TRAFFIC STUDY GUY HERE AS WELL FOR ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS ON TRAFFIC. BUT WE FEEL THAT THIS PLAN IS PREFERRED.

AND BUT WE ARE ALSO WILLING TO MORPH OTHER PLANS THAT WE'VE DONE TOGETHER.

TO ANY SUGGESTIONS YOU GUYS MIGHT HAVE THAT YOU WOULD FEEL LIKE WOULD WORK BETTER FOR THE CITY? SO THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY AND THE TIME.

THIS HAS BEEN A RIDE.

BUT WE DEFINITELY WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING THIS RIGHT FOR THE CITY.

NOT JUST FOR ME OR CURTIS OR ANYBODY ELSE.

WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS GOOD FOR EVER AND EVER FOR THE CITY.

SO WE'RE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU. GUYS.

LET ME START OFF WITH A QUESTION.

AND THIS IS WHAT WE'RE REFERRING TO AS PLAN D.

YES. OKAY.

SO BACK AFTER FIRST READING WHICH WAS A WHILE AGO.

SO ON APRIL 8TH, MR. YOUNG, YOU SENT IN AN EMAIL REGARDING OPTION OR PLAN D AND A NEW PLAN E, AND YOU SAID IN THE EMAIL THAT THE REVISED PLAN D, WE BELIEVE, ADDRESSES MOST OF COUNCIL'S COMMENTS AND STAFF'S CONCERNS REGARDING A CUL DE SAC TURNAROUND FOR CROSS LANE.

IF THERE IS A GATE.

THE PLAN ALSO ADDRESSES THE NEIGHBORS REQUEST FOR A GATE, WHICH THEY AND THEN IN BRACKETS.

THE HOA BOARD AND OTHERS INTO THE BRACKETS HAVE NOW TOLD US THEY WOULD SUPPORT THIS PLAN IF IT INCLUDED AN EMERGENCY GATE.

WHERE ARE WE ON THAT? ON THIS, I GUESS THAT AGREEMENT OR WHATEVER ON PLAN D WITH A GATE? WELL, WHEN I WROTE THAT EMAIL, I HAD HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH PRESIDENT OF THE FOXBORO HOA AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD SHE WOULD SHE AGREED WITH THIS PLAN IF WE HAD AN EMERGENCY GATE THERE.

SO THAT'S HOW WE PRESENTED IT.

OKAY. SUBSEQUENT TO THAT, THEY INFORMED US THAT THEY WERE GOING TO OPPOSE ALL ALL PLANS HERE.

OKAY. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR EITHER OF THESE TWO GENTLEMEN? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. WE'LL PROBABLY CALL YOU BACK UP IN A LITTLE BIT.

THANKS, GUYS. ALL RIGHT.

NEXT. ITEM SIX A AND SIX B BOTH REQUIRE PUBLIC HEARINGS, SO I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

WE'RE GOING TO DO THIS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY.

MISS ADCOCK, JESSICA ADCOCK, WHO IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE FOXBOROUGH HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION I BELIEVE HAS DONE A NEIGHBORHOOD SURVEY. AND THERE'S A COUPLE OF SLIDES OR WHATEVER NUMBER OF SLIDES IN A POWERPOINT.

AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING YOU'RE GOING TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD.

AND SO I'M GOING TO ALLOW YOU AN EXTRA INSTEAD OF THREE MINUTES, I'LL GIVE YOU TEN MINUTES TO GO THROUGH YOUR, YOUR SLIDES AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD SURVEY.

AND THEN WE'LL CONTINUE ON WITH THE REGULAR PUBLIC HEARING, AS WE USUALLY DO WITH EVERYONE GETTING THREE MINUTES.

BUT BEFORE YOU GET STARTED, JUST REMEMBER TO STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS BEFORE OR AFTER DIRECTOR KILLOUGH GETS YOU SET UP THERE.

[01:25:08]

WHAT THESE ARROWS ARE.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THIS EXTRA TIME.

MY NAME IS JESSICA ADCOCK.

I LIVE AT 801 CROSS LANE.

AS MENTIONED, I'M THE HOA PRESIDENT FOR FOXBOROUGH AND I APPRECIATE THE EXTRA TIME TONIGHT TO PRESENT THIS PRESENTATION, WHICH IS A SURVEY OF OUR NEIGHBORS THAT WE CONDUCTED TO HOPEFULLY AGGREGATE OPINIONS AND GIVE YOU A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE NEIGHBORS FEEL ABOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT.

I JUST WANTED TO START I KNOW MY NAME WAS JUST REFERENCED IN TERMS OF DISCUSSION IN TERMS OF THAT DISCUSSION, YES.

I HAD A DISCUSSION WITH THE DEVELOPER ABOUT REVISIONS TO THE PLAN.

BUT AGAIN, MY ROLE AS PRESIDENT IS TO TAKE WHAT WAS GIVEN TO US AS A PROPOSAL BACK TO MY BOARD AND MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND GET THEIR OPINION.

SO IT I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY THAT DISTINCTION IN TERMS OF WHY THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A CHANGE IN OPINION THERE AND THAT.

SO I JUST WANTED TO START.

OOPS. SORRY ABOUT GETTING A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ABOUT FOXBOROUGH.

SO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD BEGAN DEVELOPMENT IN 1998.

IT WAS COMPLETED IN 2000.

THERE WERE 63 HOMES AS PART OF THE HOA ALL SF 20 HOME ZONE LOTS.

AVERAGE LOT SIZE IS ABOUT 0.57 ACRES, AND THE AVERAGE HOME SIZE IS ABOUT 4600FT².

THIS IS A PLOT SHOWING FOXBOROUGH.

YOU'LL SEE HERE ON THE EASTERN BORDER THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT WITH CROSS LANE STUBBED OUT.

AND IN TERMS OF CROSS LANE AND THAT DECISION TO STUB IT OUT WHEN FOXBOROUGH WAS ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED, THE DEVELOPER ACTUALLY INTENDED FOR CROSS LANE TO BE A CUL DE SAC. AND THE CITY ASKED THE DEVELOPER AT THAT POINT TO STUB IT BECAUSE THEY KNEW THE LAND ADJACENT WAS INTENDED TO BE MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL, AND THE THOUGHT PROCESS WAS, WELL, IF THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE HOMES SIMILAR IN STYLE AND THERE'S GOING TO BE POTENTIALLY ANOTHER LITTLE NEIGHBORHOOD THERE, IT WOULD BE NICE TO CONNECT THEM LIKE NEIGHBORHOODS, CONNECTING EACH OTHER SO THAT THOSE NEW HOMES WOULDN'T BE AS LANDLOCKED.

CURRENTLY, CROSS LANE ALREADY HAS TEN HOMES ON IT, JUST FOR REFERENCE.

AND THERE'S A COUPLE IMAGES THERE.

AND THE THING I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT ABOUT CROSS LANE AT THE END OF CROSS LANE, THE INTERSECTION OF FOXBORO LANE, WHICH IS OUR MAIN ROAD GOING THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, WE HAVE AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL BUS STOP, WHICH TWICE A DAY OBVIOUSLY PICKS UP AND DROPS OFF.

WE HAVE OVER 15 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CHILDREN BOARDING AT THAT POINT.

SO THIS IS WHY THIS IS A CONCERN FOR OUR NEIGHBORS ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS ON CROSS LANE AND HOW MUCH TRAFFIC MIGHT BE COMING DOWN THAT ROAD.

TO NOTE IN THE MORNING, I WOULD SAY MAJORITY OF THE SCHOOL YEAR THOSE CHILDREN ARE BOARDING THAT BUS IN THE DARK.

SO THE CONCERN ABOUT ADDITIONAL CARS COMING DOWN CROSS LANE IS, IS REALLY A SAFETY CONCERN FOR US.

SO IN TERMS OF THE SURVEY, AGAIN, INTENT WAS TO AGGREGATE OPINIONS OF THE FOXBOROUGH HOMEOWNERS AND HOPEFULLY GIVE YOU A SENSE OF WHERE WE ALL STAND.

AGAIN, THERE'S A LOT OF US THERE.

THERE'S 63 HOMEOWNERS.

NOT EVERYBODY COULD BE HERE TONIGHT.

BUSY TIME OF YEAR, OF COURSE, BUT THIS WAS AN ONLINE SURVEY CREATED AND EMAILED OUT TO EVERY HOMEOWNER.

WE ACTUALLY ONLY HAD A THREE DAY TURNAROUND BECAUSE WE WERE TRYING TO GET IT IN FOR THE LAST MEETING.

BUT GIVEN THAT DESPITE THAT, WE HAD AN INCREDIBLE RESPONSE RATE, WE HAD 68% OF HOMEOWNERS RESPOND 43 OF THE 63.

SO MOST OF THE STUDY OR THE SURVEY, SHOULD I SAY, EXCUSE ME, WAS WRITTEN AS STATEMENTS THAT WE ASKED PEOPLE TO INDICATE ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 5 HOW MUCH THEY AGREED OR DISAGREED WITH EACH OF THE STATEMENTS.

SO THE FIRST STATEMENT READ, FOXBOROUGH SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED TO VILLAS VIA CROSS LANE.

AND AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE WAS STRONG AGREEMENT WITH THAT STATEMENT.

THE NEXT STATEMENT SAID VILLAS SHOULD NOT BE BUILT NEXT TO FOXBORO AND SOUTHVIEW.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT WITH THAT STATEMENT.

IF CROSS LANE IS EXTENDED, IT SHOULD END AS A CUL DE SAC WITH NO CONNECTION TO CARROLL AVENUE.

IN ORDER TO PREVENT CUT THROUGH TRAFFIC FROM NORTH CARROLL AVENUE TO 1709.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT WITH THAT STATEMENT.

IF CROSS LANE IS EXTENDED AS INTENDED BY CITY PLANNING, ONLY HOMES SIMILAR IN LOT SIZE AND HOME SIZE SHOULD BE ADDED TO CROSS LANE.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT THERE WITH THAT STATEMENT.

IF THERE IS AN EXTENSION OF CROSS LANE WITH ADDITIONAL HOMES BACK ACCESS CONSTRUCTION FROM CARROLL AVENUE FOR THE NEW HOMES SHOULD BE REQUIRED SO AS TO LIMIT CONSTRUCTION, TRAFFIC AND BURDEN ON EXISTING FOXBOROUGH RESIDENTS AND HOMEOWNERS.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT THERE.

[01:30:02]

THIS WAS OBVIOUSLY MORE VARIED IN TERMS OF CHOICES AND WHAT PEOPLE CHOSE, BUT I THINK WHAT I WAS LOOKING AT, THIS DATA, WHAT I COULD SEE WAS THAT WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHO ACTUALLY SUPPORTS SOME LEVEL OF EXTENSION, 79% OF THE RESPONDENTS HERE ARE OKAY WITH SOME LEVEL OF EXTENSION OF CROSS LANE.

SO WE'RE NOT SAYING NO, YOU CAN NEVER EXTEND IT.

WE DON'T WANT IT EXTENDED.

BUT THERE'S SORT OF CONDITIONS OF WHAT WE WOULD WANT AND HOPE FOR IF IT WERE TO BE EXTENDED.

AND THEN JUST TO PARSE THIS OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE, I LOOKED AT CROSS LANE HOMEOWNERS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THEY'RE GOING TO BE THE ONES MOST IMPACTED BY THIS.

WE HAVE TEN HOMES ON THAT STREET CURRENTLY.

EIGHT OF THOSE HOMEOWNERS RESPONDED.

AGAIN, WHAT I THOUGHT WAS INTERESTING WAS NO ONE SAID THEY WOULDN'T SUPPORT HOMES BEING ADDED.

THERE WERE ZERO. SO I THOUGHT THAT'S ENCOURAGING.

YOU KNOW, WE ARE TRYING TO BE REASONABLE.

BUT AGAIN, THE THE MOST PEOPLE ARE AGAIN GRAVITATING TO LESS IS MORE.

RIGHT. THEY WOULD PREFER IF THERE ARE GOING TO BE HOMES ADDED THAT IT WOULD BE LESS HOMES RATHER THAN MORE.

THE NEXT STATEMENT STATED THERE SHOULD NOT BE GATE ACCESS OF ANY TYPE, EMERGENCY VEHICLE ONLY OR VILLA RESIDENTIAL ONLY ACCESS BETWEEN FOXBORO AND THE VILLAS.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT THERE WITH THAT STATEMENT.

IF AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE ONLY ACCESS GATE IS REQUIRED FOR THE VILLAS, IT SHOULD GO ON TO DOCTOR MENDEZ'S COMMERCIAL OFFICE PARKING LOT, AS HE IS THE LAND OWNER AND SELLER OF THE LAND TO BE DEVELOPED.

IT SHOULD NOT GO ON TO CROSS LANE AGAIN.

VERY STRONG AGREEMENT THERE.

THERE SHOULD BE SEPARATION BETWEEN THE HOMES ON CROSS LANE AND ANY PROPOSED VILLAS WITH THE INSTALLATION OF A MASONRY WALL, A WOOD FENCE DOES NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT VISUAL PRIVACY, SOUND ABATEMENT OR SECURITY FOR THE HOMES IN FOXBOROUGH.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT, AND I POINT THIS OUT BECAUSE BOTH THE ALTERNATE PLAN D AND E CURRENTLY HAVE A WOOD FENCE AT THE END OF THE HOMES AND THE VILLAS.

WELL, I MEAN, PLAN E ACTUALLY I GUESS DOESN'T BECAUSE THAT'S DIFFERENT.

BUT PLAN D IT'S A WOOD FENCE.

ANY OFFICE BUILDING BACKING UP TO SF 20 ZONE LOTS SHOULD BE A SINGLE STOREY RESIDENTIAL LIKE OFFICE BUILDING, LIKE THE OFFICE BUILDINGS CURRENTLY ALONG NORTH CARROLL AVENUE, BACKING UP TO SOUTH VIEW TO CREATE A LOW PROFILE TRANSITION FROM ADJACENT SINGLE FAMILY HOMES.

AGAIN, VERY STRONG AGREEMENT THERE.

SO IN SUMMARY, I'M NOT GOING TO READ THROUGH ALL OF THESE, BUT I THINK THE POINT IS THAT THERE ISN'T AN OPPOSITION TO HAVING CROSS-LINKING EXTENDED. BUT THERE WE WANT THERE TO BE THOUGHT INTO WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE AND HOPING THAT ANY ADDITIONAL HOMES WOULD BE SIMILAR IN SIZE, IN LOT SIZE.

AND THAT CERTAINLY WE NOT BE CONNECTED TO A VILLA PRODUCT.

AND THEN AGAIN, PREFERENCE TO ENFORCE BACK ACCESS, CONSTRUCTION, LIMIT GATE ACCESS, ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

SO I'M GOING TO SHIFT TO TALKING ABOUT A FEW LITTLE PERSONAL COMMENTS OF MY OWN BEYOND JUST BEING A HOA PRESIDENT.

SO MY HUSBAND AND I MOVED TO SOUTH LAKE IN 2016 WITH OUR FOUR KIDS WHEN THEY WERE ONLY THREE MONTHS OLD, 23 MONTHS OLD, FOUR YEARS OLD, AND FIVE YEARS OLD.

SO WHEN WE LANDED IN ONE OF THE MOST FAMILY FRIENDLY, BEAUTIFUL AND SAFE NEIGHBORHOODS IN SOUTH LAKE, WE FELT LIKE WE WON THE NEIGHBORHOOD LOTTERY.

WE HAD AN INSTANT SUPPORT SYSTEM AND WELCOMING NEIGHBORS, AND SOON THEY BECAME SOME OF OUR BEST FRIENDS.

MY KIDS ALWAYS HAVE FRIENDS TO PLAY WITH OUTSIDE AND BONUS PARENTS TO TURN TO FOR EXTRA HELP OR SUPPORT.

SO WHEN I THINK ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS LAND ADJACENT TO FOXBORO AND ITS POTENTIAL CONNECTION TO MY STREET, THE ZONING TYPE AND THE PLAN MATTER HOW IT IMPACTS MY STREET, MY NEIGHBORHOOD, AND MY COMMUNITY MATTERS.

MY OPPOSITION TO THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE AND THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS NOTHING PERSONAL AGAINST THE DEVELOPER, OR AN ATTEMPT TO SAY NO DEVELOPMENT SHOULD OCCUR ON THIS LAND.

HOWEVER, THE CURRENT ZONING CHANGE REQUEST TYPE AND THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN DO NOT DEVELOP THIS LAND IN A WAY THAT FITS BEST WITH US SURROUNDING NEIGHBORS.

THE PROPOSED FIVE HOMES ADDED TO CROSS LANE IN ALTERNATE PLAN D ARE POTENTIALLY LARGER IN SIZE AND ON SMALLER LOTS THAN EXISTING CROSS LANE HOMES.

THE PROPOSED RESIDENTIAL DENSITY IS STILL TOO HIGH FOR THE LARGE VILLAS ONLY SIX FEET APART, WITH BACK ALLEYWAYS AND ON MUCH SMALLER LOTS AS COMPARED TO THE SURROUNDING HOMES.

THIS CREATES AN INCOMPATIBILITY WITH THE ADJACENT HOMES.

IT'S NOT HARMONIOUS.

THIS IS ULTIMATELY NOT THE RIGHT PLACE IN SOUTHLAKE TO PUT THESE VILLAS.

IF YOU BELIEVE SOUTHLAKE NEEDS MORE VILLAS, WE'VE GOT 79 COMING WITH CAROLINE PARK.

THE BRUMLOW EAST PROJECT IS PROPOSING 50 MORE.

NEITHER OF THESE DEVELOPMENTS PROPOSE PUTTING VILLAS UP AGAINST EXISTING SF 20 HOME LOTS, OR CONNECTING THEM TO AN EXISTING QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD STREET FULL OF YOUNG

[01:35:07]

THEREFORE, I ASK THAT EITHER THE APPLICANT BRING BACK A MORE COMPATIBLE PLAN THAT REALLY LISTENS TO THE NEIGHBORS, OR YOU DENY THE CURRENT ZONING CHANGE REQUEST AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN DUE TO THE STILL MANY PROBLEMS OF THE CURRENT PROPOSAL.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU, MISS ADCOCK.

YEAH, AND I'LL JUST NOTE THAT YOU SUBMITTED A COMMENT CARD SAYING OBVIOUSLY THAT YOU SPOKE IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM, JUST FOR THE RECORD.

YEAH. THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

FIRST, WE'LL START OFF WITH PEOPLE WHO WERE INDICATING NO APPLAUSE, PLEASE.

PEOPLE WHO WERE INTERESTED IN SPEAKING IS MR. JUERGEN STRUNCK HERE? I KNOW HE HAS A MEDICAL ISSUE AT HOME.

HE ASKED TO GO EARLY.

I DON'T SEE HIM HERE, BUT HE NOTED HE WANTED TO RECORD HIS OPPOSITION TO THIS, TO THESE ITEMS. ALL RIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO START WITH THE PEOPLE WHO INDICATED THEY'D LIKE TO SPEAK, AND THEN WE'LL GET TO THE PEOPLE COMMENT CARDS FOR THOSE WHO DID NOT WANT TO SPEAK.

OF COURSE, YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR MIND IF YOU WANT TO.

IF YOU DIDN'T WANT TO SPEAK AT FIRST BUT DO WANT TO SPEAK NOW, WE'LL WE'LL WELCOME YOU DOWN HERE.

IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND AND DON'T WANT TO SPEAK ANYMORE, THAT'S OKAY.

BUT NEXT UP WHO WANTED TO SPEAK IS ANN DAVIS AT 308 FOXBORO, INDICATING SPEAK IN OPPOSITION.

MISS DAVIS, YOU'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE, SO IF YOU'LL STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, THEN YOU'LL HAVE THOSE THREE MINUTES.

GOOD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'M ANN DAVIS, 308 FOXBOROUGH OVER THE PAST 15 YEARS, THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE PROPOSALS TO DEVELOP THE MENDEZ PROPERTY THAT ADJOINS FOXBOROUGH.

AND IN EVERY CASE, THOSE PROPOSALS HAVE DISREGARDED SOUTH LAKE'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND REQUESTED ENDLESS VARIANCES THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THEIR NEIGHBORS.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND ME REPRESENT A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF THE CITIZEN RESPONSES TO DOCTOR MENDEZ'S CURRENT PROPOSAL.

THE MAJORITY OPPOSES IN OUR PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE CALLS, HOA LETTERS, PUBLIC PRESENTATIONS, WE'VE IDENTIFIED OUR UNDERSTANDABLE CONCERNS. THE NEWLY PROPOSED DENSITY IS OUT OF LINE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

IT INTRODUCES REAL TRAFFIC SAFETY AND CONGESTION PROBLEMS ON CARROLL AND CROSS LANE.

IT CREATES A DRAMATIC INCREASE IN IMPERMEABLE SURFACES, WHICH WOULD BE PLACED ON TOP OF AN ACTIVE CREEK AND ARTESIAN WELLS.

SO THINK ABOUT THAT.

THE DEVELOPER WANTS TO REMOVE ALMOST 75% OF THE PRESENT TREE COVERAGE, SO HE CAN BUILD OUT TO A DENSITY THAT WILL EXCEED EVEN THE MAXIMUMS ALLOWED BY THE VARIANCES THAT HE'S REQUESTING.

NONE OF THIS IS NECESSARY.

OUR FUTURE LAND USE PLANS HAVE A BETTER IDEA, AND SO DO OUR PLANNERS.

OUR CITY PLANNERS REPORT HIGHLIGHTS THE NON-CONFORMING NATURE OF A TWO STORY BUILDING, POSITIONED WHERE THE DOWNWARD SLOPE OF CARROLL LANE OF CARROLL AVENUE WILL MAKE IT APPEAR AS IF IT'S A TWO AND A HALF TO THREE STORY BUILDING.

THIRD FLOOR BONUS ROOMS ON TOP OF THE PROPOSED VILLAS WILL TOWER OVER THE SURROUNDING HOMES AS WELL.

ENSURING THAT NEW CONSTRUCTION CONFORMS WITH PREEXISTING STRUCTURES MAKES BETTER SENSE.

I'VE WRITTEN YOU ABOUT A RATIONAL COMPROMISE THAT MOST OF US CAN SUPPORT.

PLEASE UPHOLD THE ORIGINAL SF 20 ZONING FOR MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL THAT OUR CITY PLANNERS ENVISIONED FOR THIS PROPERTY.

TRAVIS FRANKS HAS SAID HE CAN MAKE MORE MONEY SELLING FOXBOROUGH LIKE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES THERE THAN HE CAN BY SELLING VILLAS.

SO LET'S ENCOURAGE THAT AND LET'S ENCOURAGE A ONE STORY GARDEN OFFICE BUILDING LIKE THOSE ON THE WEST SIDE OF NORTH CARROLL.

IF INSTEAD OF VILLAS, DOCTOR MENDEZ CAN BUILD OUT TRADITIONAL HOMES ON LOTS SIMILAR TO THOSE IN FOXBOROUGH, OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WILL BE ABLE TO SUPPORT AN EXTENSION OF CROSS LANE TO A CUL DE SAC WITH NO OPENING ONTO CARROLL.

PLEASE REJECT TONIGHT'S WILLOW TREE PROPOSAL AND REMAND ANY HYBRIDS TO P AND Z IN COMPLIANCE WITH OUR CITY CHARTER CODES AND ORDINANCES.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU. NEXT CARD IS FROM CLAIRE JAMES AT 807 CROSS LANE.

IT INDICATES THERE'S CHECK BOTH FOR I WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION AND ALSO I DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT PLEASE RECORD MY OPPOSITION.

CLAIRE JAMES HERE.

COME ON DOWN.

AND AS YOU JUST SAW, IF YOU COULD JUST STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, THEN YOU'LL HAVE YOUR THREE MINUTES.

CLAIRE JAMES AT 807 CROSS LANE, AND I OPPOSE THIS AGAIN, GOING BACK TO KIND OF THE BEGINNING OF IT AND ALL OF THE

[01:40:04]

AND IT SEEMED LIKE THINGS KEPT KIND OF HAPPENING AND WE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT EXACTLY WAS THE END GOAL.

AND WITH ALL OF THE CHANGES BEING MADE, IT SEEMED THAT THERE WAS THIS KIND OF IT JUST KEPT CHANGING.

WE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND IT AND LIKE, REALLY COMPREHEND.

AND FELT LIKE WE WERE HAD BLINDERS OVER OUR EYES DURING THIS.

AND I THINK THAT EVEN EVEN SAY, TAKE THE EMPTY NESTER SITUATION IF THE PLAN IS STILL THE SAME TO HAVE. ALL WINDOWS OR NO WINDOWS ON THE BACKSIDE OF WHAT? MINUS THE FIVE HOMES ON THIS PLAN AND SAY CALL IT 18 HOMES.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT EMPTY NESTERS WOULD ACTUALLY PURCHASE A HOME WITH NO WINDOWS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THIS MASSIVE THAT EVEN THAT ALONE DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, LET ALONE OUR OWN OPPOSITION OF YES, WE ARE EMOTIONAL AND LIKE TO PRESERVE OUR OWN STREET.

OF COURSE, I CAN SEE OUR OWN BLIND SPOTS ON THAT, BUT I THINK THAT THIS IS NOT GOING TO JUST AFFECT OUR.

LITTLE STREET.

THIS IS GOING TO AFFECT THE BUSIEST INTERSECTION OF SOUTHLAKE, INCLUDING ALL OF YOU GUYS UP HERE TONIGHT.

AT FIRST IT WAS PROSPER AND THEN, YOU KNOW, A.

SITUATION HAPPENED TWO WEEKS AGO WHERE WE DIDN'T GET THROUGH TO THAT.

AND SO THEN THEY SHIFTED GEARS WHERE IT'S JUST A LOT OF HOODWINKING GOING ON, AND I WILL BE GLADLY TO CALL THAT OUT.

BUT YEAH, I AM IN OPPOSITION FOR THE ENTIRE PLAN, AND I, I DON'T NECESSARILY THINK THAT, YOU KNOW.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A PLAN THAT WILL BENEFIT ANYBODY OTHER THAN A COUPLE PEOPLE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

NEXT I HAVE TANDY ROBERSON AT 302 FOXBORO LANE.

I WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

COME ON DOWN, SIR. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNCIL.

WE NEED YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.

FOR THE RECORD. I'M SORRY.

TANDY ROBERTSON, 302 FOXBORO LANE HERE IN SOUTHLAKE.

MY FAMILY AND I MOVED HERE SEVEN YEARS AGO FOR TWO REASONS.

OBVIOUSLY, CARROLL ISD BEING A WORLD CLASS SCHOOL DISTRICT AND LOW DENSITY HOME SITES.

THIS HAS BEEN A BAD PLAN FROM THE START.

I COULD NOT BE MORE ANTI HIGH DENSITY AND ALSO VILLAS, ESPECIALLY IN SOUTHLAKE THAT WE JUST DON'T NEED WITH THEM CURRENTLY FOR SALE IN TOWN SQUARE AND OBVIOUSLY CAROLINE ON THE WAY.

I'M VERY MUCH AGAINST THE NEIGHBORHOOD WE LIVE IN BEING ANNEXED INTO THIS.

SO NO CROSS LANE ACCESS.

I DO SUPPORT SF 20.

THERE ARE HOMES ALL OVER SOUTHLAKE AND NEIGHBORHOODS LIKE ON CARROLL AND KIMBALL AVENUE THAT HAVE ONE STREET NEIGHBORHOODS.

I BELIEVE THEY COULD BUILD THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD WITH A CUL DE SAC.

GOING BACK OUT TO CARROLL.

THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAVE TO SAY.

I'M OPPOSED TO THIS AS A AS A SOUTHLAKE RESIDENT.

WHAT IT COULD BRING THE ZONING CHANGES.

I DON'T WANT THIS TO BECOME THE NEXT FRISCO.

AND I REALLY DON'T WANT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD MESSED WITH AT ALL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU SIR. NEXT, I HAVE MIKE WESSON AT 809 CROSS LANE.

I WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

AND AGAIN, NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.

MIKE WESSON, 809 CROSS LANE.

MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.

SO WE'RE ACTUALLY AT THE VERY END OF CROSS LANE THERE.

ON THE BOTTOM NEXT TO WHERE THAT 17,000 SQUARE FOOT LOT IS PLANNED.

SO WE ACTUALLY INITIALLY I CHANGED OUR OPPOSED TO UNDECIDED AT ONE POINT BECAUSE WE DID APPRECIATE THE DEVELOPER'S EFFORTS TO PUT A SOLID STONE WALL AT THE END OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT TO COMPLETELY SEAL OFF FOXBORO.

AND THEY PUT THE EMERGENCY ACCESS GATE ON THE SOUTH SIDE ON THE MENDEZ PROPERTY.

SO WE DID APPRECIATE THAT.

WE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO CHANGE BACK TO OPPOSED BECAUSE OF THIS PLAN E THAT WAS BROUGHT BACK WITH OPEN ACCESS TO CROSS LANE.

THE SOUTHLAKE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN STATES THAT ANY FUTURE CONNECTION ACROSS LANE TO CARROLL AVENUE IS NOT INTENDED.

ANY IS A CLEAR VIOLATION OF THIS, AND EVEN PLAN D WITH A RESIDENTIAL ACCESS GATE WOULD BE A VIOLATION OF THIS AS WELL, BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE RESIDENTIAL TRAFFIC AND YOU ALSO HAVE ALL THE COMMERCIAL TRAFFIC.

AND EVEN IF THERE WAS A, YOU KNOW, BADGE ACCESS GATE, THEY CAN GET ALL THE WAY TO CARROLL.

AND THAT STILL PRESENTS A LOT OF THROUGH TRAFFIC THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

WE HAVE A REALLY SPECIAL COMMUNITY ON CROSS LANE, AS YOU'VE ALREADY HEARD.

[01:45:03]

LIKE, I'M SURE MOST PEOPLE ARE TIME OUTDOORS.

MOST MODERN KIDS ARE ON THEIR DEVICES A LOT, BUT THE KIDS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND SPECIFICALLY OUR STREET, THEY'RE OUTSIDE ALL THE TIME.

THERE ARE ABOUT 20 KIDS ON CROSS LANE, AND WE DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE SECURITY RISK OF THE THROUGH TRAFFIC OR PEOPLE WALKING THROUGH.

CARROLL. SO WE HAVEN'T REALLY TALKED ABOUT PEDESTRIAN ACCESS, BUT I'M ALSO VERY OPPOSED TO PEDESTRIAN ACCESS.

BUT WE DO UNDERSTAND THAT CROSS LANE IS NOT INTENDED TO REMAIN STUBBED.

WE'RE AT THE LAST HOUSE THERE AND WE LIKE THE DEAD END, BUT WE KNOW IT'S NOT INTENDED TO REMAIN STUBBED.

BUT THAT ALSO DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT HAS TO BE EXTENDED AS FAR AS POSSIBLE.

THAT UNFAIRLY PLACES THE MAJORITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT BURDEN ON US AND OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WITH ANY PROPOSAL, WE SHOULD ALL WANT A COMPROMISE THAT WORKS SOMEWHAT WELL FOR FOR ALL PARTIES. DISPROPORTIONATELY DAMAGING THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF A SINGLE STREET IS NOT A COMPROMISE.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO APPROVE ANY OF THESE PLANS, DO NOT LET IT BE PLAN E, AND PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST A RESIDENTIAL ACCESS GATE ON PLAN D, IT WOULD REALLY BE BEST FOR THAT EMERGENCY ACCESS GATE TO GO ON THE SOUTH SIDE.

AND IF IT IS REQUIRED, IF EMERGENCY ACCESS IS REQUIRED, IT NEEDS TO BE CODED TO REMAIN CLOSED WITHOUT ANY ABILITY TO BE OPEN.

AND IT SHOULD BE OPAQUE SO THAT WE CAN'T ACTUALLY SEE DOWN THE DEVELOPMENT.

AND I THINK I THINK IT WAS THE INTENTION OF THE DEVELOPER TO HAVE A STONE WALL TO THE RIGHT OF THAT RETENTION POND.

I DON'T SEE IT INDICATED BY THAT GREEN LINE.

I THINK THAT WAS THE INTENT, BUT THERE SHOULD BE A STONE WALL THERE ALSO.

I JUST PLEASE, WHEN I ASK YOU TO PROTECT US AS OUR REPRESENTATIVES, EVEN IF IT ONLY MEANS PROTECTING A SMALL NUMBER OF FAMILIES IN THE CITY.

THE DEVELOPERS PITCH IS TO BRING IN MORE YOUNG FAMILIES TO THIS TOWN.

WE ARE THOSE YOUNG FAMILIES THAT ARE ALREADY HERE, AND WE HAVE NOBODY TO ADVOCATE FOR US BUT YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU.

NEXT I HAVE MATT TROXELL AT 707 MOLTON LANE.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

AGAIN. NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.

MATT TROXEL, 707 MOULTON LANE, HERE IN SOUTHLAKE.

I'M THE TREASURER OF THE FOXBORO HOA.

GOOD EVENING, AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THE REZONING REQUEST.

I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS LAND WILL BE DEVELOPED AT SOME POINT, BUT THAT CAN HAPPEN UNDER SF 20, MATCHING THE EXISTING STRUCTURES.

YOU WILL HEAR DIFFERING POINTS OF OPPOSITION TONIGHT.

AND IF YOU'VE READ ALL THE COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN FILED THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS, YOU'VE SEEN THAT THERE ARE MANY POINTS OF CONTENTION AND ITEMS TO BE CONSIDERED.

I'D LIKE TO MENTION THREE.

IF YOU APPROVE A REZONING, ARE THERE ANY GUARANTEES THAT THE PROJECT THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT IS ACTUALLY WHAT GETS BUILT? THERE IS SOME PRECEDENCE FOR PROJECTS BEING CHANGED.

I RECOMMEND THAT YOU TAKE THE ADVICE OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION THAT UNANIMOUSLY VOTED AGAINST THIS PLAN.

AND LET THIS BE DEVELOPED UNDER SF 20 ZONING.

DON'T HARM THE EXISTING RESIDENTS TO BENEFIT OTHERS.

POINT TWO.

THERE'S A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE IF CROSS LANE BECOMES A CUT THROUGH.

GOOGLE MAPS WILL CERTAINLY ROUTE TRAFFIC THROUGH FOXBOROUGH WHEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT BACKS UP.

THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO SPEED BUMPS OR EVEN SPEED LIMIT SIGNS IN FOXBOROUGH.

THIS IS A MAJOR HAZARD AND I ASK YOU TO CONSIDER THAT.

POINT THREE. IF THE CURRENT PLANS ARE APPROVED, THE NEW RETENTION POND NEEDS TO STAY ON THE NEW DEVELOPMENT SIDE OF THE WALL, AND THE WALL MUST BE MAINTAINED BY THE DEVELOPER.

FOXBOROUGH CANNOT TAKE ON THESE EXPENSES.

IF THE POND IS ON OUR SIDE OF THE WALL, THE DEVELOPER WILL HAVE NO MOTIVATION TO ACTUALLY MAINTAIN IT.

IT WILL BE OUT OF SIGHT AND OUT OF MIND.

AS THE FOXBOROUGH TREASURER, I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE FOUNTAINS NEEDED TO KEEP THOSE PONDS FROM BECOMING SWAMPS ARE QUITE EXPENSIVE.

THE POND AND THE WALL MUST BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DEVELOPER.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOUR CONSIDERATION.

THANK YOU. NEXT I HAVE JOHN GALL, 802 CROSS LANE.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS MATTER.

DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK.

STILL OPPOSED THOUGH? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SIR.

NEXT AARON GIBSON, 300 FOXBORO LANE.

WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS MATTER AARON GIBSON.

SHE LAUGHED. OKAY, WE'LL RECORD HER OPPOSITION.

NEXT IS JESSICA HARWOOD, 800 CROSS LANE.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS MATTER.

NOT HERE. OKAY.

WE'VE GOT HER OPPOSITION.

[01:50:04]

OKAY. BLAKE BREWER, 802 GATESHEAD COURT, WILL SPEAK AND SAYS IT WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION AND ALSO DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD IT DOESN'T SAY.

BLAKE BREWER, COME ON DOWN.

IF YOU COULD STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.

SURE. HI. BLAKE BREWER, 802 GATESHEAD COURT.

SO WE MOVED HERE IN 2021 AND WE MOVED HERE FOR A LOT OF THE SAME REASONS.

EVERYBODY, LOTS OF PEOPLE MOVE HERE AND PEOPLE STAY, RIGHT.

AND ONE OF THOSE WAS FOR A LITTLE BIGGER PROPERTY THAN WHERE WE HAD COME FROM.

ONE OF OUR CONCERNS WAS OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, FOXBORO.

IT ALREADY WERE SO CLOSE TO COMMERCIAL AS IT IS, RIGHT? WE'RE SO CLOSE TO 1709.

AND, YOU KNOW, I THINK OUR CONCERN WITH THE HIGHER DENSITY PROPOSAL IS JUST GOING TO SUFFOCATE IT MORE.

AND I DON'T THINK IT'S NECESSARY.

AND THIS NUMBER OF HOMES TO SOLVE FOR, YOU KNOW, FOR EMPTY NESTERS.

I HAVE A HARD TIME THINKING THAT THAT WILL REALLY MAKE A DENT.

SO THAT'S A THAT'S A CONCERN.

I THINK ANY ACCESS OF A GATE WITH COMBINED WITH HIGH DENSITY, CREATES TRAFFIC DOWN THE STREET AND CREATES SOME DANGERS THAT ARE OF REAL CONCERN. AND I THINK ON A POSITIVE, NO PROBLEM WITH THE OFFICE BUILDING MAYBE SOME VIEW ISSUES.

BUT I MEAN, IN TERMS OF THE OFFICE ON CAROL PERSONALLY IN SUPPORT OF THAT ASPECT OF IT AND I THINK THEY SHOULD RETHINK THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE RESIDENTIAL PIECE OF IT.

AND HIGH DENSITY IS NOT THE ANSWER.

THANKS. THANK YOU.

NEXT. JACKSON, DEAN 920 OMB LANE.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS MATTER.

JACKSON, DEAN 920, OMB.

ALL RIGHT. WE'LL RECORD OPPOSITION.

MARK PEARSON 470.

SOUTHVIEW TRAIL WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

AGAIN IF YOU COULD STATE YOUR NAME.

ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.

MARK PEARSON 470 SOUTH NEUTRAL.

AND I AM OPPOSED TO THIS.

TO THIS DEVELOPMENT.

THE MAIN THING IS THE TRAFFIC.

I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN A STRAIGHT ANSWER ON THAT AS FAR AS.

THE GRIDLOCK THAT'S GOING TO OCCUR, ALL THE TRAFFIC THAT'S GOING EASTBOUND ON 1709.

TURNING ONTO CARROLL NOW, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE.

TRAFFIC IS GOING TO BE TURNING INTO THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT, ALONG WITH THE TRAFFIC SOUTHBOUND ON CARROLL.

AT SOME POINT, THE CARS ARE GOING TO BACK UP.

IT'S GOING TO BE A GRIDLOCK.

IT JUST. I DON'T SEE THE TRAFFIC SITUATION RESOLVED.

I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING UP TO THIS POINT.

THAT GIVES ME THE CONFIDENCE THAT THAT'S NOT GOING TO BE JUST A COMPLETE MESS.

THAT'S ALL I GOT. THANKS.

THANK YOU. NEXT, MIKE MILLS, 805 CROSS LANE, WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS.

AND AGAIN. NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.

YOU BET. HOW ARE YOU GUYS DOING? MIKE MILLS, 805 CROSS LANE.

I LIVE TWO HOUSES DOWN FROM THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT.

TRAVIS AND CURTIS, I WANT TO AGREE WITH YOU.

AS A FELLOW COMMERCIAL LANDOWNER, I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I AM FOR SELECTIVE, THOUGHTFUL, HIGH QUALITY, HIGHER DENSITY DEVELOPMENTS IN THE RIGHT SPOT.

AT SOME POINT. I JUST DON'T THINK THIS PROPOSED PLAN IS THE RIGHT ONE.

YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT THE, YOU KNOW, IS A IS A CROSS LANE NEIGHBOR.

I THINK IF WE COULD GET, YOU KNOW, A COUPLE OF SIMILAR HOUSES WITH THE EMERGENCY ACCESS TO THE MENDEZ PROPERTY, THAT'D BE AMAZING.

THERE WAS A PLAN AT ONE POINT THAT HAD THAT ON THERE THAT, YOU KNOW, I WAS FOR AND THEN OFFICE BUILDING.

I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT. I THINK THAT'S FINE.

YOU KNOW, THE REST OF THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THE WHOLE PROPERTY, I JUST, I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT FITS, YOU KNOW, WITH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND THE HIGH DENSITY WITHOUT THE SEPARATION JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

SO I'D RECOMMEND THAT YOU GUYS VOTE THIS ONE DOWN AND SEND THEM BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD.

THANKS. THANK YOU.

NEXT, PAUL SIMON, 500 BENTWOOD LANE.

WISH I WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

I'M PAUL SIMON, 500 BENTWOOD LANE AND SOUTHLAKE.

I'VE BEEN A RESIDENT HERE FOR 23 YEARS.

FOR THE MOST PART, I'M GOING TO LIMIT MY COMMENTS TO THE OFFICE BUILDING.

I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH AN OFFICE BUILDING BEING ON CARROLL.

IT'S A GOOD LOCATION FOR IT.

MY PROBLEM IS THE FACT THAT IT'S GOING TO BE A TWO STORY OFFICE BUILDING.

[01:55:03]

I KNOW THAT SOUTHLAKE DOESN'T HAVE A DEFINITION FOR A GARDEN STYLE OFFICE BUILDING.

I LOOKED IT UP, GOOGLED IT, FOUND ALMOST EVERYTHING IS IN SOMEBODY'S BACKYARD WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT IT.

BUT SOME CITIES DO DEFINE IT.

BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA DEFINES IT AS A ONE STORY WITH PARKING DIRECTLY ADJACENT TO IT.

I THINK IT'S TIME THAT WE ACTUALLY COME UP WITH A PRECEDENT OR A DEFINITION OF WHAT A GARDEN STYLE OFFICE BUILDING IS, AND THAT'S WHAT.

IT IS RECOMMENDED AND I THINK IT DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE ONE STORY.

THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH THE SECOND STORY IS THAT THE SECOND STORY NORMALLY HOUSES OFFICES, DOES NOT HOUSE RETAIL OFFICES.

OFFICE WORKERS TEND TO COME AND GO AT THE SAME TIME, AND I'M REALLY WORRIED.

I'VE NOTICED THAT SO MANY THINGS ARE TURNING INTO A CALL CENTER.

AND I'M NOT SAYING THIS WOULD BE A CALL CENTER EVENTUALLY, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN FIVE YEARS DOWN THE ROAD.

I KNOW THAT I RECENTLY HAD HELD DAMAGE IN MY CAR, AND I WAS SURPRISED.

THE ADJUSTER, I COULDN'T GO MEET THE ADJUSTER.

I HAD TO ACTUALLY CALL INTO A CALL CENTER.

WE DID IT ALL VIA VIDEO CALL.

EVERYTHING IS BECOMING CALL CENTERS.

IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENED TO BE A CALL CENTER, WE COULD.

WE COULD HAVE. A MASSIVE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LEAVING AT 5:00.

AND I KNOW THEY MENTIONED THAT IT COULD BE A 1 TO 2% INCREASE IN TRAFFIC.

WELL, IF THEY ALL LEAVE AT 5:00, THAT COULD BE A 50 TO 100% INCREASE IN TRAFFIC AT 5:00 WHEN WE CAN'T AFFORD IT.

AND WORSE YET, MOST OF THE PEOPLE WOULDN'T BE LIVING IN SOUTHLAKE AND THEY WOULD BE WANTING TO MAKE A U-TURN.

THEY HAVE TO TURN RIGHT OUT OF THE OUT OF THE OFFICE BUILDING, MAKE A U, TURN IT TO STOPLIGHT AT 1709 AND GET BACK ON CARROLL GOING NORTHBOUND TO GET ON TO 17 OR GET ON 114.

ALSO, I WAS HERE FOR BASICALLY ALL THE MEETINGS.

I CAN'T REMEMBER WHICH MEETING IT WAS THAT SOMEONE ASKED ABOUT.

IT IS A 23,000 SQUARE FOOT OFFICE BUILDING.

I KNOW IT'S A CONCEPT RIGHT NOW, LIKE, WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE, BUT IT SAID IF YOU APPROVED IT, WOULD IT BE IF YOU APPROVED THIS PLAN, ARE YOU APPROVING IT? 23,000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING.

AND THAT WAS I THINK, DOCTOR DIRECTOR KILO SAID YES.

SO I'M AGAIN WANTING IT TO BE APPROVED MORE TO BE A ONE STORY BUILDING.

AND I'M REALLY WORRIED ABOUT THE TRAFFIC.

LASTLY, IF I HAVE TIME, I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT BECAUSE I DIDN'T THE ORDINANCE THAT YOU GUYS ARE ACTUALLY APPROVING 48 FOR 8810, SOME OF THE THINGS WHERE IT SAYS IS, IS THAT THE CITY COUNCIL HOW MUCH TIME I WANT TO TALK WITH THE CITY COUNCIL IS.

DOES FIND THAT THIS IS IN A PUBLIC INTEREST IT THAT THE PUBLIC DEMANDS THEM.

THE PUBLIC INTEREST IS CLEARLY REQUIRES THE AMENDMENT, AND THE ZONING CHANGE IS NOT UNREASONABLE.

I THINK YOU'LL THANK YOU, SIR.

INTEREST. THANK YOU. NEXT.

PAMELA MUELLER, 914 WESTWOOD DRIVE.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

AMEN. I WAS GOING TO COMMENT BOTH ON SEVEN A, SEVEN B.

I HOPE I'M WITHIN THE TIME LIMIT, BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR INDULGENCE.

SIX A AND SIX B RIGHT NOW.

WELL I'M SORRY SIX A AND SIX B.

ALL RIGHT. IT'S BEEN A LONG NIGHT.

FIRST I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL AS THE TOP NOTCH VOLUNTEERS FOR OUR CITY.

WE WOULDN'T BE THE COMMUNITY WE ARE WITHOUT YOUR HARD WORK.

AND I THINK VERY FEW PEOPLE DO NOT REALIZE THAT YOU'RE NOT COMPENSATED FOR IT.

BUT THANK YOU.

I'VE SERVED ON THIS CITY IN MANY CAPACITIES WITH THE CITY CHARTER, CBA, PLANNING AND ZONING, CITY COUNCIL. AND NOW, AS YOU NOTICE, COPS AND FIRE REHAB.

I'VE SERVED ON THE COUNCIL'S MOST PRODUCTIVE 1 IN 2 YEARS.

WE TRANSITIONED FROM GENERAL LAW TO HOME RULE, HAD OUR FIRST PROFESSIONAL CITY MANAGER.

I SERVED ON THE COMMITTEE THAT RECOMMENDED ALAN TAYLOR, WHO IS STILL WITH US.

WE COMPLETED THE ANNEXATION OF THE SOUTHLAKE BOUNDARIES, DEVELOPED THE BASIS FOR OUR PRESENT DAY MASTER PLAN.

WITH THE HELP OF THE TAILOR FIRM, WE WROTE THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE AND THEN REZONED THE WHOLE 22MI² OF THIS COMMUNITY. WE DID THIS STARTING AT FIVE IN THE MORNING AND WORKING MAYBE TO ONE, TWO IN THE MORNING, FIVE IN THE AFTERNOON, WITH ONLY PEPPERMINT CANDIES PROVIDED BY THE CITY SECRETARY.

AFTER A DECADE, I RETURNED TO WORK WITH BRIAN STEBBINS.

I WAS THE ONLY COUNCIL MEMBER THAT SUPPORTED HIM.

I HAD A VISION, STARTING IN THOSE EARLY YEARS, FOR SOUTHLAKE TO BECOME THE PREMIER CITY OF THE METROPLEX AND THE UNITED STATES,

[02:00:01]

FOR EVERY UPDATE OF OUR 2020, 2025, 2030, I THINK YOU'RE PROBABLY ON 2035.

WE HAVE ALSO ALWAYS SUPPORTED LOW DENSITY, CONTROLLED GROWTH.

IT'S WITH PUBLIC.

IT'S WHAT'S NEEDED FOR PUBLIC WORKS, FOR OUR CITY MANAGER TO PLAN FOR THE FUTURE.

WE HAVE HAD, AS YOU WELL KNOW, A PROBABLY A BUILD OUT OF ABOUT 35,000.

ADHERING TO OUR PLAN IS WHAT KEEPS US SPECIAL IN THE PREMIER CITY.

TRADITIONAL ZONING.

TRANSITIONAL ZONING DOES NOT MEAN HIGH DENSITY ROW HOUSES NEXT TO MEDIUM DENSITY ESTABLISHED HOMES.

I KNOW MY FORMER COUNCIL MEMBERS, GARY FOX AND AL ZITO, HAVE CONTACTED YOU ALL WITH THE SAME CONCERNS.

WE HAD WORKED HARD OVER THE YEARS TO PRESERVE THAT HIGH QUALITY, LOW DENSITY VISION.

WE AGREE THE PLAN FOR THIS PROPERTY IS TO CONTINUE CROSS LANE AND BUILD THE SF 20 LOTS WITH THE PROPER WALL AND LANDSCAPING, ALLOWING A BUFFER FROM THE OFFICE COMPLEXES THAT WOULD BE ADJACENT TO CARROLL AVENUE.

MR. MUELLER, I SEE YOUR TIME IS UP.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENT.

WRAP IT UP BECAUSE LIKE I SAID IT WAS A DOING THE TWO.

I JUST WANT TO COMMENT.

WE'VE NEVER HAD HIERARCHY ZONING.

AND WITH ALAN TAYLOR'S LAW OFFICE, WE HELPED WRITE THE PREAMBLE TO DO MORE OF A GARDEN STYLE HOME OFFICES ADJACENT TO THE RESIDENTIAL, ESPECIALLY OUR LOWER DENSITY RESIDENTIAL.

KEEP IN MIND, WITH THE FOXBORO, YOU KNOW, THE PLANNING VERY MUCH.

AND HIGH DENSITY HOMES.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

THESE ARE YOUR NEIGHBORS.

THANK YOU. NEXT JOSEPHINE NEE OR NAI 475 BENTWOOD LANE IN SOUTHLAKE WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

I'M SORRY ABOUT THE NAME, IF I GOT IT RIGHT OR WRONG.

HI. STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.

FOR THE RECORD, MY NAME IS JOSEPHINE NEE AND I LIVE AT 475 BENTWOOD LANE.

FIRST OF ALL, I JUST WANT TO SAY HOW GLAD I WAS THAT DIRECTOR COHEN IS HERE TODAY AND THAT HE'S.

WELL. I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HARD WORK FOR THE CITY.

I'LL ALLOW APPLAUSE FOR THAT.

SORRY, SORRY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH.

THE SECOND THING I WANT TO SAY IS.

DIRECTOR COHEN, WHEN HE WAS UP HERE, WAS MENTIONING HIS CONCERNS ABOUT THE TRAFFIC PATTERNS THAT WOULD BE GENERATED BY THIS TURN LANE THAT WAS PROPOSED AS PART OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. I'M ACTUALLY A RESEARCHER.

I RUN A RESEARCH LABORATORY, SO I LOVE DATA AND I LOVE SCIENCE.

AND I'M REALLY GLAD THAT THE TRAFFIC STUDY PEOPLE ARE HERE TODAY.

I WILL SAY THAT'S NOT MY AREA OF EXPERTISE, BUT I LIKE YOU ALL TO DO SOME MENTAL MATH WITH ME.

WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED IS A 23,000 SQUARE FOOT COMMERCIAL BUILDING.

NOW, MANY PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY NOTED THAT THIS IS NOT A GARDEN OFFICE.

THAT'S CONSISTENT WITH ALL OF THE OTHER BUILDINGS ON THIS PARTICULAR SIDE OF CARROLL AVENUE, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO TALK MORE ABOUT THAT.

USUALLY, HOWEVER, IN AN OFFICE BUILDING, 1000 SQUARE FOOT EQUALS TEN EMPLOYEES.

SO THAT'S ROUGHLY 230 EMPLOYEES.

REMEMBER THAT MOST EMPLOYEES COME AND LEAVE AT PEAK TRAFFIC HOUR.

AND THE CURRENT TRAFFIC STUDY THAT I'VE READ THROUGH, IT STATED THAT THE NORTHBOUND NUMBER OF VEHICLES AT PEAK TRAFFIC HOURS, 860 CARS PER HOUR, SOUTHBOUND VEHICLES AT 880 CARS PER HOUR, AND THIS WAS CONDUCTED THE DAY AFTER PRESIDENTS DAY WEEKEND, WHEN ACTUALLY MANY PEOPLE WERE OUT OF TOWN.

I FEEL LIKE THIS DATA IS ALREADY KIND OF FLAWED.

AND NOW IMAGINE THIS IS 29 CARS PER MINUTE.

IMAGINE JUST ADDING 200 CARS TO THIS DURING PEAK RUSH HOUR.

NOTE THAT THIS WON'T BE DURING THE COURSE OF AN HOUR.

MOST PEOPLE LEAVE IN ABOUT 15, 20, 30 MINUTES.

IT'S A LOT OF CARS.

I WILL NOTE THAT THE CURRENT TRAFFIC STUDY QUOTES 69 CARS.

I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND HOW THAT NUMBER WAS ARRIVED AT, BUT EVEN 69 CARS IS A LOT TO ADD TO THIS CURRENT NUMBER OF THE CURRENT AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC BEING FUNNELED THROUGH CARROLL AND 1709, WHICH IS ACTUALLY ONE OF THE MOST BUSY INTERSECTIONS THAT WE HAVE ALREADY IN SOUTHLAKE.

AND I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I DRIVE IT EVERY SINGLE DAY.

I LIVE OFF OF CARROLL AND REMEMBER THESE CARS.

THEY ALL HAVE TO TURN, SO THEY HAVE TO TURN RIGHT.

THEY HAVE TO TURN LEFT.

THIS ADDS A LOT OF CONGESTION.

THAT'S REALLY NOT NECESSARY.

I REALLY, REALLY WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION OF THE TWO STORY OFFICE BUILDING.

I BELIEVE THAT IT'S NOT ONLY NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN PROPOSING GARDEN STYLE APARTMENT OFFICES, BUT ALSO

[02:05:08]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU. NEXT, DWAYNE G, 925 SOUTH VIEW TRAIL WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS.

COME ON DOWN, SIR.

DWAYNE G. 925 SOUTHVIEW TRAIL.

I LIVE IN SOUTHVIEW SUBDIVISION AND I ALSO SERVE ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR SOUTHVIEW.

I HAVE SEVERAL CONCERNS, BUT TONIGHT I'M GOING TO LIMIT MY MY TALK TONIGHT ABOUT TRAFFIC AND SAFETY.

THIS PROPOSAL IS ACTUALLY COMPRISES TWO DIFFERENT DISTINCT PROJECTS ONE COMMERCIAL, ONE RESIDENTIAL, BOTH PRIMARILY ACCESSED VIA CARROLL AVENUE.

THIS INTENSIFIES THE TRAFFIC AND SAFETY CONCERNS BY PLACING A SUBSTANTIAL BURDEN ON CARROLL AVENUE AND OUR COMMUNITY.

WHILE THE DEVELOPERS TRAFFIC STUDY SUGGESTS ONLY A MARGINAL INCREASE OF 1 TO 2%.

DIRECTOR COHEN EXPRESSED AT THE LAST CITY COUNCIL MEETING APPREHENSIONS REGARDING THE POTENTIAL TRAFFIC CONGESTIONS AND DELAYS WHERE DRIVERS MIGHT FACE MULTIPLE SIGNAL CYCLES TO GAIN ACCESS.

IN CONTRAST TO OTHER PROJECTS, WHICH UNDERGO THOROUGH YEAR LONG STUDIES ENABLING CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS TO GAUGE TRAFFIC EFFECTS ACROSS SEASONS, THIS PROJECT'S TRAFFIC STUDY IS BASED ON A CONSIDERABLY SMALLER DATA SET.

DURING THE FIRST READING, COMMITTEE MEMBERS VOICED THEIR STRUGGLE WITH THE PROJECT'S MERITS VERSUS ITS IMPERFECTIONS, INDICATING A SENTIMENT OF GOOD PRODUCT BAD LOCATION.

HOWEVER, GIVEN THE LOCATION IS NON-NEGOTIABLE, THE FOCUS SHIFTS TO EXPLORING SOLUTIONS THAT MODIFY THE PRODUCT.

ONE PROPOSED SOLUTION INCLUDES.

PRIOR TO THE PROJECT'S ADVANCEMENT REQUEST, THE DEVELOPER CONDUCT A MORE EXTENSIVE TRAFFIC STUDY ENCOMPASSING A BROADER SAMPLE SIZE.

ANOTHER SOLUTION IS TO MANDATE SEPARATE OR EXCLUSIVE ACCESS FOR THE COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS.

IDEALLY, THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT CONSISTS OF CONSISTENT AND COMPATIBLE SF 20 HOUSING AND WOULD BE ACCESSED VIA THE EXTENSION OF CROSS LANE WITH NO COMMERCIAL ACCESS.

WHILE THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT WOULD UTILIZE CAROL AVENUE WITH NO RESIDENTIAL ACCESS, AND NUMBER THREE, IF SEPARATE ACCESS IS NOT FEASIBLE, THE CITY COUNCIL SHOULD RECOMMEND UTILIZING THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT TOWER ROAD.

NEGOTIATION REGARDING INGRESS AND EGRESS WOULD OCCUR BETWEEN THE SELLER, DEVELOPER AND RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS PRIOR TO THE PROJECT ADVANCEMENT.

CURRENTLY, THE COMMUNITY DISPROPORTIONATELY BEARS THE BURDEN OF TRAFFIC.

ACCESS UTILIZING TOWER ROAD WOULD PREVENT WOULD PROVIDE CROSS THROUGH ACCESS FOR THE PROJECT.

ADDRESSING ONE OF NZ'S CONCERNS LEADING TO THE PROJECT'S UNANIMOUS DENIAL, THE CITY COUNCIL POSSESSES THE AUTHORITY TO DECIDE ON MATTERS IMPACTING TRAFFIC FLOW IN OUR COMMUNITY'S CORE, AND WE IMPLORE YOU TO CAREFULLY CONSIDER THESE PROJECTS AND THESE PROPOSED SOLUTIONS.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR, WITH ONE SECOND LEFT, WELL, WELL TIMED.

ALL RIGHT. NEXT, RYAN JACOBSON AT 1218, WOODSY COURT.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

OR MAYBE NOT. WE'LL RECORD RYAN JACOBSON.

OPPOSITION. NEXT IS BETH ROBERSON AT 302 FOXBORO LANE.

NEXT IS CAM BRIAN, 970 OMB LANE.

WHO STATES HE'S IN SUPPORT OF OPTION D? ALL RIGHT. NOW WE'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH THE COMMENT CARDS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE INDICATED THEY DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK.

BUT AS I CALL THEM OUT, IF YOU'VE CHANGED YOUR MIND AND YOU'RE HERE AND YOU WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK, JUST KIND OF WAVE OR COME ON DOWN AND WE'LL TRY TO I'LL TRY TO CATCH YOU AND YOU'LL HAVE A CHANCE TO SPEAK.

[02:10:03]

APPRECIATE YOU GUYS HAVING ME.

807 CROSS LANE.

ALEX PARROTT. MY WIFE SPOKE EARLIER.

WE HAVE FOUR KIDS FRESHMAN AND HIGH SCHOOL DOWN TO SECOND GRADE.

I WAS NOT PLANNING ON COMING UP HERE TONIGHT.

I FEEL LIKE BEN AFFLECK WALKING UP TO THE BRADY ROAST.

BUT I'M GOING TO DO MY BEST HERE.

TO GIVE A 30,000 FOOT VIEW.

WHEN WE MOVED HERE IN 2008 WHAT BROUGHT US HERE WAS A SENSE OF COMMUNITY, KIDS SCHOOL, YOUNG FAMILY SPORTS.

IT'S WHAT BROUGHT US HERE.

OUR STREET'S REALLY SPECIAL.

YEAH. I INVITE ANYBODY TO DRIVE BY 330 ON ANY DAY OF THE WEEK, WATCH THE BUSLOAD OF KIDS GET OFF THE BUS, RUN DOWN THE STREET, PLAY OUTSIDE.

THE FAMILIES, THE NEIGHBORS ALL HANGING OUT.

IT'S IT'S A IT'S REALLY A SPECIAL PLACE.

SO MAGIC AND LIFE THAT IT HAS.

THE LAST MEETING I CAME HERE, THERE WAS A TOPIC IN THE HOMECOMING PARADE AND THE IMPORTANCE OF WHAT WHAT THAT IS AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO OUR COMMUNITY.

JUST ON ONE, ONE SIDE OF THE STREET ON CROSS LANE, THE SOUTH SIDE, WE HAVE 20 KIDS.

THEY'RE ALL FUTURE DRAGONS.

THERE WAS THIS FUTURE OF THIS TOWN IS.

AND WHAT MAKES IT WHAT IT IS.

WE OWN OUR OWN BUSINESS, MY WIFE AND I.

AND WE UNDERSTAND THE HUSTLE AND APPRECIATE THE OTHER SIDE.

CHASING AN OPPORTUNITY TO HELP THEIR FAMILY.

THE LEGACY, WHICH I THINK IS WHAT WE'RE ALL WAKING UP TO DO EVERY DAY.

I APPRECIATE THAT. WHAT? IT'S WHAT I'VE LEARNED ABOUT MOST WHEN I MOVED TO SOUTHLAKE.

IT'S FULL OF A BUNCH OF PEOPLE THAT THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.

THEY'RE DRIVEN, THEY'RE SUCCESSFUL.

AND MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.

YOU KNOW, THE ONE THING I'D LIKE TO SAY IS THE OTHER SIDE IS TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY CARE ABOUT THE NEIGHBORS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF THE COMMUNITY.

I'VE NEVER MET ANY OF THE PEOPLE ON THE OTHER SIDE.

I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYBODY WALK DOWN THE STREET, KNOCK ON THE DOOR, INTRODUCE HIMSELF, TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH, TALK ABOUT WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO THEM, WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO US TO TRY TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION THAT MAKES SENSE FOR EVERYBODY.

SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF THE KIDS, THERE'S A LOT OF KIDS I KNOW.

A LOT OF THEM WANTED TO COME UP HERE AND TALK TO YOU GUYS TONIGHT.

I KNOW IT'S PAST THEIR BEDTIME.

WE'D BE HERE FOR ABOUT THREE HOURS.

I HAVE A SON WITH SPECIAL NEEDS.

HE HAS DOWN SYNDROME. HE GOES TO CARROLL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

SO WE'RE USED TO, YOU KNOW, SPEAKING FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE A VOICE.

SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TONIGHT FOR YOU GUYS TO BE HERE AND TO BE SPEAKING ON BEHALF OF THE 20 KIDS THAT AREN'T HERE TODAY, TO TALK ABOUT THE EXCITEMENT THEY HAVE GETTING OFF THE BUS, THE SAFETY, THE FAMILY ALL THE FRIENDS THEY HAVE YOU KNOW, WE OWN A BROWNSTONE.

WE UNDERSTAND THE CLIENTELE, THE NEIGHBORS AND WHAT THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT WOULD BRING TO TO BRING TO THE SIDE OF THE TOWN.

THE OTHER SIDE TALKED ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE WOULD LEAVE SOUTHLAKE, YOU KNOW, WITHOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT, BY OPENING UP CROSS LANE, I THINK YOU'RE POSSIBLY PUSHING YOUNG FAMILIES AND KIDS OUT AND BRINGING IN EMPTY NESTERS.

AND, YOU KNOW, I THINK I ASK, IS THAT WHAT ANY OF YOU GUYS, WHEN YOU FIRST MOVED TO SOUTHLAKE, IS THAT WHAT WAS IMPORTANT TO YOU GUYS? RIGHT. SO I THINK I THINK JUST THE KIDS, THE THE FUTURE OF THIS COMMUNITY, WHAT THEY BRING TO THE TABLE I THINK THAT'S ALL IMPORTANT TO SAY.

THERE'S OBVIOUSLY MORE TOPICS WITH TRAFFIC, ZONING, DENSITY YOU KNOW, POSSIBLY ENDANGERED ANIMALS THAT MAKE UP THAT 9.6 ACRE PROPERTY THAT NEED TO BE LOOKED INTO MORE.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS MORE OF A 30,000 FOOT VIEW.

BUT, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, GOING BACK TO WHAT I SAID, WHEN EACH OF YOU LOOK TO MOVE TO SOUTHLAKE AND THINK ABOUT WHAT BROUGHT YOU HERE YOU KNOW, WAS IT WAS IT THE KIDS, WAS IT THE FAMILY, THE SCHOOL, THE SPORTS, THE COMMUNITY? OR WAS IT WAS IT KIND OF THAT EMPTY NESTER FUTURE AND WHAT THAT WOULD BRING TO THE COMMUNITY? THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU.

APPRECIATE THAT. NEXT IS LAURA KLEIN AT TWO 203 BLUE CYPRESS.

BUT GO AHEAD, SIR. GOOD EVENING, BOB IDLE FOR TEN FONDREN COURT, WHICH IS OFF HOMEBY LANE.

AND I JUST WANT TO TALK ABOUT U-TURNS.

SO WHEN I COME IN AND OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD, SOUTHVIEW, I USE OMB AND MAJORITY OF THE TIME I'M TURNING AT PROSPECT, MAKING A U-TURN GOING NORTH TO 114.

OR MAYBE I'M COMING HOME AND I HAVE TO GO DOWN TO FEDERAL.

SO U-TURNS ARE ARE DANGEROUS.

THEY ARE NOT THE SAFEST MANEUVER OUT THERE LEGAL.

BUT THEY'RE THEY'RE NOT VERY SAFE.

[02:15:02]

AND IT GETS SCARY A LOT OF TIMES.

AND SO I'M THINKING.

WHEN THEY LEAVE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND HEAD SOUTH ON CARROLL AVENUE, THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO SCOOT OVER AND MAYBE MAKE A U-TURN AT MAIN STREET OR GO ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 1709.

AND THEIRS ARE GOING TO BE SOME DANGEROUS U-TURNS.

AND PLEASE CONSIDER THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW THE TRAFFIC STUDY CONSIDERED THAT, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE A SCARY SITUATION WITH A LOT OF U-TURNS.

THANK YOU SIR. NEXT WE HAVE REBECCA MADISON 550.

RICHARD CHANG, 703, GATESHEAD COURT DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD OPPOSITION.

NANCY SEARLE, 775.

BENTWOOD LANE DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD OPPOSITION.

DOES ANYONE ELSE WANT TO SUBMIT A COMMENT CARD OR COME UP AND SPEAK? YES, SIR. COME ON DOWN.

[02:25:04]

DAN ADCOCK, 801 CROSS LANE, COUNCIL MEMBERS.

I HOPE YOU'VE HEARD THE CLEAR MESSAGE FROM THE NEIGHBORS OF THIS COMMUNITY TONIGHT THAT WE ARE IN OPPOSITION OF THIS.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE PUBLIC RECORD, THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE REGISTERED SUPPORT ARE PRIMARILY DEVELOPERS OR FAMILY MEMBERS DIRECTLY BENEFITING FINANCIALLY FROM THIS TRANSACTION.

IF FOR SOME REASON THE COUNCIL FEELS THE NEED TO GO FORWARD A COUPLE OF DATA POINTS, ONE, AS AS SOMEONE WITH AN INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING DEGREE, TRAFFIC STUDIES AND STATISTICS ARE ONLY AS GOOD AS THE QUESTION THAT YOU ASK.

THE TRAFFIC STUDY ONLY LOOKS AT THE CROSS TRAFFIC IMPACT OF MAIN STREET AND CARROLL.

IT DOES NOT LOOK AT THE STACK UP FROM CARROLL GOING BACKWARDS.

IF ANYONE HAS DRIVEN DOWN CARROLL SOUTH IN THE EVENINGS, UNDERSTANDS THE TRAFFIC STACKS UP SIGNIFICANTLY BACK BEYOND MAIN STREET AND OCCASIONALLY ALL THE WAY BACK TO OMB, WHICH MEANS AT RUSH HOUR TIME YOU WILL HAVE THOSE ENTRANCES WITH NO ONE ABLE TO GET OUT WITHOUT BEING LET IN ONE AT A TIME, ALTERNATELY IN A TRAFFIC BACK FLOW.

THEREFORE, THEN YOU COULD A YEAR OR TWO DOWN THE LINE, YOU'RE LOOKING AT, WELL, HOW DO WE EASE THE TRAFFIC ACCESS FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD, COMMUNITY, ETC.

THAT TURNS TO THE EMERGENCY GATE TO BE OPENED.

THAT EMERGENCY GATE THEN OPENS UP ACCESS TO 35 PROPERTIES TO A SINGLE EXIT OUT ON CROSS LANE.

THAT EMERGENCY GATE, IF THIS IS TO GO FORWARD, NEEDS TO BE THROUGH DOCTOR MENDEZ'S PROPERTY, AS YOU KNOW, AS NOT TO IMPACT THE TRAFFIC FLOW.

THE NEIGHBORS IN THE THE NEIGHBORS AND THE COMMUNITIES SURROUNDING THIS PROPERTY ARE OPPOSED.

WE HAVE PRESENTED AN ALTERNATIVE, WHICH WAS THE SF 20 LOT PLAN, WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY PRESENTED AS AN ALTERNATIVE IN PNC COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE DEVELOPERS AS AN ALTERNATIVE, BUT APPARENTLY THE NUMBERS DON'T WORK.

IF THAT'S THE CASE, THE DEAL SHOULD BE RECONSIDERED.

AND YOU KNOW, THERE SHOULD BE A NEW RENEGOTIATION BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE SELLER OF THE LAND TO CONSIDER AN OUTCOME THAT WOULD MAKE THAT WORK.

THAT PLAN IS ALIGNED WITH THE ORIGINAL LAND USE PLAN THAT THIS, YOU KNOW, GROUP AND GOVERNING BODY HAS PUT FORWARD.

WE RECOMMEND SUPPORT AND CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AN ALIGNMENT TO THAT.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU SIR.

ANYONE ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO'D EITHER LIKE TO SUBMIT A COMMENT CARD OR COME AND SPEAK? ALL RIGHT. SEEING NONE, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

I'LL JUST COMMENT. THANK YOU ALL FOR I KNOW THAT THERE'S BEEN MULTIPLE MEETINGS AT PNC AND MULTIPLE MEETINGS HERE AT CITY COUNCIL.

I APPRECIATE YOU ALL STICKING WITH US AND BEING AVAILABLE AND PARTICIPATING.

IT REALLY DOES HELP US MAKE YOU KNOW, FOR A GOOD MEETING AND A GOOD DIALOG AND DISCUSSION.

SO THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE.

COUNCIL. DO WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH OR ANYONE ON STAFF? ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANTS? ALL RIGHT. ANY DISCUSSION OR ANYTHING? ANYONE WANT TO SPEAK TO THIS OR WE'LL DISCUSSING THEM BOTH TOGETHER.

WE'LL HAVE SEPARATE VOTES AND MOTIONS ON SIX A AND SIX B.

BUT ANY DISCUSSION ON THESE ITEMS? YES, MAYOR. ONE QUESTION I WOULD HAVE IS WHETHER IT'S NOW IF THERE'S GOING TO BE A DISCUSSION OR AFTER IF I COULD REQUEST A QUICK FIVE MINUTE EXECUTIVE SESSION AT SOME POINT, WHENEVER YOU'RE COMFORTABLE, THAT'D BE GREAT, I THINK.

YEAH. UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE FOR MR. KILLOUGH OR FOR THE APPLICANT, WE CAN GO INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION.

SO. AS MAYOR, I HEREBY ADVISE YOU THAT WE'RE GOING INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION PURSUANT TO THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT.

[2.A. Executive Session (Part 2 of 2)]

AND I THINK WE'LL JUST BE 5 OR 10 MINUTES.

ALL RIGHT. I'LL CALL OUR REGULAR MEETING BACK TO ORDER.

[2.B. Reconvene (Part 2 of 2)]

SO AGAIN, COUNCIL.

I'LL OPEN IT UP IF THERE'S ANY DISCUSSION HERE ON THE DAIS.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH? ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANTS? I DO HAVE A QUESTION.

PROBABLY FOR FOR DENNIS.

CAN YOU SPEAK TO THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND WHAT WAS DONE? KIND OF. THERE WAS A THERE WAS A RESIDENT COMMENT ABOUT THERE WAS NO STUDY GOING NORTH ON CARROLL.

CAN YOU SPEAK TO WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND HOW IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT ITS MINIMAL IMPACT? YES, I THINK I CAN AND I CAN ACTUALLY MAYBE JUST IT'S A LITTLE WORDY, BUT CAN PULL THE TRAFFIC ENGINEERS LETTER UP THAT THEY, THEY PREPARED. AND IN OUR SLIDE, I MEAN, WE DO JUST HAVE A BASIC OVERVIEW OF WHAT THE TRIPS WERE BY COUNTS THAT THE CITY TOOK, I BELIEVE, IN 2018, WHICH ARE A LITTLE HIGHER THAN THE NUMBERS THAT I THINK KIMLEY-HORN STUDY CONDUCTED, AND THEN WHAT THE IMPACTS ARE FROM, FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT, WITH 100% OF THE PLANNED TRAFFIC GOING ON TO.

[02:30:03]

LET ME. AND DENNIS, I GUESS A FOLLOW UP QUESTION TO WHAT YOU JUST SAID, THAT THE TRAFFIC STUDY THAT WAS CONDUCTED TOOK INTO ACCOUNT ALL THE.

THE PROPOSED LOTS THAT WE SEE EXITING ONTO CARROLL, WITH NOBODY EXITING ON CROSS LANE AND GOING OUT.

1709 IS THAT CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT, YES.

AND THIS IS JUST AN OVERALL 24 HOUR AND PEAK HOUR COUNTS THAT WERE TAKEN BY CITY'S CONSULTANT LEE ENGINEERING ON CAROL.

THESE NUMBERS, I THINK, ARE A LITTLE HIGHER FROM WHAT KIMLEY-HORN STUDY TOOK DURING THE TIMELINE THAT I THINK ONE OF THE PUBLIC SPEAKERS REFERENCED BACK TO.

AND THEN THE BOTTOM CHART IS JUST A TRIP GENERATION, AND THE PERCENTAGE OF INCREASE THAT'S BEING ADDED BOTH DURING THE PEAK HOURS AM, PM, AND THEN THE 24 HOUR COUNTS.

THANK YOU. MY QUESTION IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

CAN WE SEE THE ACTUAL INGRESS EGRESS? WERE THE PEOPLE BECAUSE THE APPLICANTS IN THE PLAN HE'S PROPOSING OR THAT HE RECOMMENDS EVERY ALL OF THE VILLA RESIDENTS WOULD ENTER AND EXIT ON TO CARROLL? CORRECT? THAT THAT IS CORRECT.

YES. SO CAN CAN WE SEE? BECAUSE I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT THAT LIP WHERE YOU, YOU GET OVER AND TURN INTO THAT NEIGHBORHOOD FROM.

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. WHAT WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE THAT FOR YOU IF YOU IF YOU JUST GO BACK TO YOUR MOUSE, I CAN I CAN SHARE DEVELOPMENT PLAN PERHAPS.

LET'S SEE. IT'S THAT LAST TRAFFIC ONE THAT SHOWS THE HOOD.

BUT GO BACK TO THE QUESTION.

LET'S SEE, DID I SAW IT GO TOO FAR? NO. RIGHT. RIGHT HERE. RIGHT HERE.

OKAY. SO.

THE ONLY WAY THEY'D BE ABLE TO GET INTO THIS NEIGHBORHOOD.

MEANING THEY MEANING THE VILLA RESIDENTS WOULD BE TO MAKE THIS TURN AGAINST TRAFFIC OR WITH CORRECT.

AND I WILL CLARIFY THAT THIS EXHIBIT THAT WAS DRAWN UP BY THEIR TRAFFIC ENGINEER DOES NOT DESCRIBE GEOMETRICALLY, HOW THIS DRIVE IS ACTUALLY REPRESENTED ON THEIR CURRENT DEVELOPMENT PLAN BECAUSE THEY'VE GONE THROUGH A LITTLE BIT OF REFINEMENT.

I THINK SOME OF THIS PARKING IS REMOVED AND THIS TURN HERE IS NO LONGER AS SHARP A TURN.

SO, YOU KNOW, SOUTHBOUND TRAFFIC WOULD ENTER HERE.

NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC WOULD HAVE OPTION OR HAVE THE ABILITY FOR A HOODED LEFT TURN LANE TO.

MOVE INTO THIS AREA.

AND I REMEMBER, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY LAST TIME, YOU SAID THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GO UP TO THAT NEXT.

ROUND. WHAT HAVE YOU CALLED THAT LITTLE? AREA TO TURN RIGHT ABOUT NORTH OF HERE.

YOU SEE IT ON? I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO.

THE NEXT. THE NEXT EXIT.

THE NEXT INTERSECTION.

YES. YEAH. THEY WOULDN'T THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO MAKE A TURN THERE.

CORRECT. I THINK THEY COULD, BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A TURN LANE AT THAT FIRST.

INTERSECTION. LET ME GET TO ARIEL.

SEE IF I CAN GET THE ONE.

CAN YOU GO BACK ONE? CAN YOU GO BACK ONE? THAT SHOWS ME THIS ONE RIGHT HERE.

THEY'RE NOT BELIEVE THERE'S A TURN LANE RIGHT HERE AT PROSPECT, WHICH IS THE NEXT.

SO I THINK ONE OF THE OBSERVATIONS MADE BY TMP WHEN THEY LOOKED AT THIS IS THAT HAVING THIS TURN LANE HERE WOULD PREVENT PEOPLE FROM TRYING TO GET UP TO THE NEXT CROSSING AT PROSPECT AND TRY TO MAKE THAT U-TURN.

THE NEXT ONE UP IS AT FEDERAL WAY, WHICH IS A CONTROLLED INTERSECTION.

HAS A HAS A LIGHT.

CAN YOU GO BACK ONE FOR ME, PLEASE? GO BACK ONE. RIGHT HERE, RIGHT HERE.

OKAY. IF IF THEY'RE LEAVING THE DEVELOPMENT GOING SOUTH, THE THE SHORTEST U-TURN WOULD BE WHERE? PAST 17 ON THAT.

WHEN WHEN THAT'S WHEN WELL, RIGHT NOW IT WOULD BE HERE AT MAIN STREET.

RIGHT NOW, MAIN STREET'S OPEN, AND I HAVE IN HERE AN EXHIBIT OF.

OF WHAT? WHAT? THE CARROLL IMPROVEMENT PLAN WOULD ALTER THIS.

[02:35:04]

SO IF SOMEONE NEEDED TO GO NORTHBOUND, THEY COULD POTENTIALLY COME OUT OF THE DEVELOPMENT, HIT THE HOODED LEFT TURN AND MAKE A NORTHBOUND U-TURN.

OR ENTER INTO MAIN STREET.

EXITING TRAFFIC FROM MAIN STREET WILL BE RESTRICTED TO, YOU KNOW, WRITE OUT MOVEMENT ONLY.

AND THEN LIKEWISE COMING NORTHBOUND YOU JUST HAVE WRITE IN MOVEMENT ON.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH AT THIS TIME? OR I'M GOING TO GIVE THE APPLICANT A CHANCE TO COME UP AND GO TO THOSE ISSUES THAT WERE RAISED BY COUNCIL MEMBER TORRES-LEPP AND COUNCIL MEMBER SMITH AND ANYTHING THAT DIRECTOR KILLOUGH SAID. SO IF YOU GUYS WANT TO TAKE A FEW MINUTES IN THAT REGARD.

YEAH. I'D ALSO LIKE TO MAYBE ADDRESS SOME OF THE THE COMMENTS WE HEARD FROM THE THE NEIGHBORS.

YOU KNOW PLAN D WAS BASICALLY DESIGNED AND I THINK IS CONSISTENT WITH A LOT OF.

THE RESULTS OF THAT SURVEY THAT WAS PRESENTED, MORE THAN HALF OF THE PEOPLE SAID THEY DIDN'T WANT MORE THAN SIX LOTS ADDED ONTO CROSS LANE.

THEY SAID THAT THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE OKAY FOR ADDITIONAL LOTS TO BE ADDED TO CROSS LANE, BUT THEY WANTED TO LIMIT THE NUMBER TO NO MORE THAN.

MORE THAN HALF OF THEM SAID NO MORE THAN SIX.

THAT IS THE GENESIS OF WHY WE DESIGNED THIS PLAN.

THIS WAY WE'RE LIMITING IT TO FIVE AND.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IT'S YOU KNOW, AND THEN AND YET INCONSISTENTLY, WE HEAR THEM SAY THAT WHAT THEY WANT IS.

TO EXTEND THAT CUL DE SAC AND MAKE THIS WHOLE AREA SF 20.

WE COULD GET 12 TO 16 SF 20 LOTS ON THIS PROPERTY.

HOW WOULD THAT BE BETTER? IF YOU'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THE TRAFFIC ON CROSS LANE, THEN WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING HERE.

THIS IS BASICALLY BEEN DESIGNED TO MINIMIZE THE TRAFFIC UNDER CROSS LANE, BUT STILL HAVE A CUL DE SAC TURNAROUND THERE, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT IS NECESSARY BECAUSE THE ROAD HAS JUST BEEN STUBBED.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S BEEN SOMETHING THAT THAT THAT STAFF HAS ASKED FOR FROM THE BEGINNING.

SO. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF OUR FRUSTRATION HERE.

WE'RE TRYING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES AS MUCH AS WE CAN, YET WE'RE HEARING CONTRADICTORY DESIRES FROM THEM.

YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A COMMENT ABOUT NOT TAKING CARE OF THE WALLS.

YOU KNOW, THE POND ANY WALLS WE BUILT, ANY IMPROVEMENTS WE BUILT WILL BE OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO TAKE CARE OF.

WE'RE NOT ASKING ANYONE IN THE FOXBORO OR SOUTHVIEW NEIGHBORHOODS TO TAKE CARE OF ANY OF THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE WOULD DO.

WE HAVE MASONRY WALLS SHOWN RIGHT THERE IN GREEN NEXT TO ALL THE VILLAS WHERE WE HAVE ALLEYS NEXT TO EXISTING HOMES.

WE HAVE MASONRY WALLS.

LOTS ONE THROUGH FIVE ARE ALL GOING TO BE VERY SIMILAR HOMES TO THOSE THAT ARE ON CROSS LANE.

YOU KNOW, WE DON'T NECESSARILY NEED MASONRY BETWEEN TWO SIMILAR HOMES, BUT IF THAT WAS YOUR DESIRE, WE'D BE HAPPY TO PUT A MASONRY WALL THERE.

IT JUST SEEMS UNNECESSARY AND UNNATURAL TO ME TO, TO TO DO THAT.

THERE WAS TALK ABOUT HIGH DENSITY.

WE WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THAT.

THIS IS MEDIUM DENSITY.

THEY ARE MEDIUM DENSITY.

THEY ARE NOT LOW DENSITY.

WE KNOW WE KNOW WHAT THE DEFINITIONS OF THAT ARE.

WE ARE BOTH MEDIUM DENSITY.

SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. YES.

BUT WE ARE BOTH IN THE MEDIUM DENSITY THING.

AND. I DON'T KNOW.

THIS UNNATURAL AVERSION TO AND A FEAR OF AN EMERGENCY ENTRY JUST MYSTIFIES ME.

I THINK IN YOUR PACKET, STAFF WENT OUT AND TOOK PICTURES OF VARIOUS EMERGENCY ENTRIES THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT IN SOUTHLAKE, AND THERE'S MANY OF THEM. AND I'M HERE TO TELL YOU THOSE NO RESIDENTS HAVE EVER GONE THROUGH THOSE.

AND I THINK EMERGENCY VEHICLES RARELY, IF EVER, HAVE GONE THROUGH THOSE.

SO NOW AGAIN, WE DESIGNED THIS TO TRY TO ADDRESS WHAT THE NEIGHBORS WERE TELLING US.

WE HEARD FROM YOU ALL AT FIRST READING THAT SOME OF YOU THOUGHT IT WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THE TRAFFIC TO GO THROUGH THERE.

WE'RE HERE TO DO WHATEVER DIRECTION YOU GIVE US, AND IF YOU HAVE SOME COMMENTS THAT WANT TO CHANGE A FEW THINGS HERE SLIGHTLY, WE'RE ALL EARS. BUT WE ARE HONESTLY HERE TRYING TO ADDRESS THE COMMENTS THAT WE GOT FROM THE NEIGHBORS, AS WELL AS THE DIRECTION WE GOT FROM YOU ALL. AT FIRST READING.

SIR, YOU CAN TAKE A SEAT WHILE HE'S STILL SPEAKING.

[02:40:03]

THAT'S NOT PER MINUTE.

IT'S PER HOUR. AND THAT'S THE PEAK HOUR.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S THAT'S ONE TRIP PER MINUTE.

IT'S IT'S AS AS DENNIS SAID, IT'S A IT'S A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE.

AND ANYWAY, THEIR PLAN D DOES NOT GIVE ACCESS TO CAROL FROM THE CROSS LANE, OR TRAFFIC FROM CROSS LANE, OR TRAFFIC FROM CAROL TO CROSS LANE AT ALL.

SO AGAIN, WE'VE TRIED TO ADDRESS ALL THESE ISSUES.

WE THINK THIS IS A, THIS IS A GREAT PLAN.

BUT YOU KNOW, IF YOU'VE GOT COMMENTS LET US KNOW.

YEAH. ONE JUST ONE QUICK THING TO ADD.

I WON'T TAKE MUCH TIME ON THIS IS THAT, YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A COMMENT MADE THAT WE'RE NOT WORKING WITH THE NEIGHBORS THAT WE HAVEN'T REACHED OUT TO MAYBE 1 OR 2 OF THEM OR WHATEVER THAT MIGHT BE. WE'VE HAD OVER, WELL, 7 TO 8 DIFFERENT PLANS.

I'VE MET WITH EVERYBODY THAT WAS WILLING TO TALK TO ME.

MY OWN NEIGHBORHOOD TOOK ME OFF THE EMAIL LIST.

SO. SO THEY WERE OBVIOUSLY NOT WILLING TO WORK WITH ME AND KIND OF DISCUSS THE OPTIONS OR PLANS THAT WANT TO BE AROUND THIS.

SO YOU'RE SEEING A LOT OF EMOTION, I THINK, OUT OF THIS PROJECT THAT IS ALL SURROUNDING BASICALLY BY ONE NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE OF CROSS LANE, OF PROTECTION, OF CROSS LANE.

I WOULD SAY THAT WE'VE BEEN OBVIOUSLY WILLING TO WORK WITH EVERYBODY.

AND AT THE SAME POINT WITH THESE 7 OR 8 DIFFERENT PLANS WE HAVE, WE HAVE PROVIDED THROUGHOUT THIS DURATION OF PROCESS.

WE ARE HERE TO MAKE MAKE SOMETHING WORK.

SO THIS IS THIS LAND WILL BE DEVELOPED.

WHAT DO Y'ALL WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE? AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE TO SAY.

AND AND WE'D LIKE TO MORPH INTO WHATEVER DESIGN YOU GUYS FEEL LIKE WOULD WORK AND BE NECESSARY FOR THIS PRODUCT.

WE WE ALL HAVE VALID POINTS.

I KNOW THERE'S SOME EMOTION ON THE OTHER SIDE.

AND IF WE NEED TO DO ALL HALF ACRE LOTS ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE BOARD ALTHOUGH THEY WANT IT BUT DON'T, THAT'S GOING TO BE WE CAN WE CAN ENTERTAIN THAT THAT PLAN AS WELL.

IF THAT'S A IF THAT'S WHAT'S NECESSARY.

SO ANYWAYS, WE FEEL LIKE THIS IS A GOOD PLAN.

WE'RE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS BUT DEFINITELY NOT STUCK AT ONE POSITION.

SO ALL RIGHT THANK YOU.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANTS.

YEAH. GO AHEAD I'VE ACTUALLY GOT SEVERAL QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS I WANT TO KIND OF RUN THROUGH THINGS.

I'M GOING TO START WITH THE TRAFFIC PIECE.

WE'RE HAMMERING THIS TRAFFIC PIECE.

WE HAVE TRAFFIC STUDIES.

WILL YOU GO BACK TO THE SLIDE THAT HAS THE ACTUAL NUMBERS ON THERE? WE CAN SAY THE TRAFFIC STUDY IS FLAWED.

WE CAN SAY THIS AND THAT, BUT WE HAVE A TRAFFIC STUDY.

I THINK IT SHOWS WHAT IT DOES.

THEY'RE PAID FOR THAT.

THEY ARE ENGINEERS. THIS IS WHAT THEY DO, THESE THESE TRIPS.

SO THE TOP LINE IS RESIDENTIAL.

AND THE BOTTOM LINE IS IS COMMERCIAL CORRECT? FOR PEAK TRIPS.

THAT 16 AND 20.

YEAH. SO THAT BRINGS ME TO A PIECE OF THIS THAT WHILE IT WHILE IT CAUSES CONSTERNATION FOR THE CROSS LANE FOLKS I UNDERSTAND THAT.

BUT I THINK IF YOU BOUGHT A HOUSE ON CROSS LANE, YOU SEE THAT DEAD END THERE.

YOU KNEW THAT WAS GOING THROUGH AT SOME POINT IN TIME.

AND I COMPLETELY RESPECT AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE LACK OF DESIRE TO HAVE THAT GO THROUGH TO CAROL, AND I WOULDN'T DO THAT EITHER.

I DON'T THINK THAT THAT WOULD BE A REASONABLE THING TO DO.

BUT I THINK OPENING THIS TO YOUR NEIGHBORS IS THE NEIGHBORLY THING TO DO.

I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE SO ADAMANTLY AGAINST ALLOWING THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO BE LIVING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD TO DRIVE IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE.

THAT'S THAT'S A HUGE, JUST KIND OF STICKING POINT FOR ME.

I'LL ASK YOU MENTIONED IT HERE.

YOU SAID YOU COULD GET PROBABLY 16 OR SO HOUSES IF YOU WENT STRAIGHT SF 20 IN THIS.

YEAH. AND YOU'RE AT 23 NOW.

SO WE'RE REALLY TALKING ABOUT EVEN IF WITH THE CURRENT PLAN A DELTA OF SEVEN HOMES.

AND SO FROM WHAT WE'VE HEARD FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THEY'D BE FINE IF WE PUT 16 FOR SF 20 ON THERE AND HAD IT WIDE OPEN.

NO GATE, NO NOTHING AND A CUL DE SAC.

SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SEVEN HOMES DIFFERENCE THERE.

THAT'S THAT TO ME IS A SMALL DELTA.

BUT I THINK I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THERE'S THE POTENTIAL.

NOW GO BACK TO THE D AGAIN.

THAT WE WERE JUST LOOKING AT.

SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS ONE, LIKE IF YOU TOOK OUT A 1 OR 1 OR SO LOTS IN THE TOP AND BOTTOM AND INCREASE THE SIZE OF EACH OF THE VILLA LOTS SO THAT YOU GET DOWN TO 20 OR 21.

NOW THAT DELTA DROPS TO FOUR FOR ME AND IT JUST NOW YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A DENSITY THAT'S MARKEDLY MORE IN LINE.

IT'S MARKEDLY LESS THAN WHAT WE HAVE AT CAROLINE.

IT'S MARKEDLY LESS THAN WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

AND I JUST HAVE A I HAVE A SIGNIFICANT ISSUE WITH THE DUPLICITOUSNESS THAT WE HAVE WITH THE OVERWHELMING SUPPORT WE HAD FOR CAROLINE, THAT WE JUST GOT HAMMERED BY HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE IN FAVOR OF IT.

AND NOW WE HAVE A VERY, VERY SIMILAR PRODUCT IN REALLY A PRETTY COMPARABLE I MEAN, RIGHT ACROSS FROM TOWN SQUARE WALKING DISTANCE TO EVERYTHING.

THIS LITERALLY WOULD BE LIVE, WORK, PLAY, WALK AND DO IT ALL WALKING RIGHT THERE.

AND WE'RE FIGHTING THAT BATTLE NOW.

CURIOUS. GIVE ME YOUR AVERAGE HOME PRICE.

YOU THINK YOU KNOW I TOLD YOU THIS ON YOUR FIVE LOTS AND THEN ON YOUR ON YOUR VILLA HOMES.

ON THE VILLA LOTS.

WE ACTUALLY RAN SOME NUMBERS ON SOME PERFORMERS ON THE HOMES ALL IN INCLUDING LOT.

[02:45:03]

THE LAND PIECE WOULD PROBABLY BE ROUGHLY 850 A LOT ALL IN, PROBABLY BETWEEN STARTING AT TWO, FIVE, TWO, SIX UP TO THREE AND A HALF. SO I KEEP HEARING THAT THE NEIGHBORS WANT A COMPARABLE HOME TO WHAT THEY HAVE IN FOXBOROUGH.

THAT TO ME SOUNDS COMPARABLE.

I MEAN, IT'S EVERY BIT AS MUCH, IF NOT SIGNIFICANTLY MORE THAN WHAT WHAT THE CURRENT HOMES THERE ARE.

SO I THINK WE HAVE TO LOOK AT WHAT IS IT COMPARABLE HOME NOW THAT'S BEING BUILT TODAY? WE CAN'T BUILD FOUR AND A HALF, $5 MILLION HOMES RIGHT HERE AND THINK THAT YOU'RE GOING TO SELL 16 OF THOSE, WITH THREE OF THEM BACKING UP TO CAROL.

I THINK THAT'S A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN THERE.

SOMEONE MENTIONED THAT THERE WOULD BE 230 AND 230 EMPLOYEES IN THIS OFFICE.

GIVE ME AN IDEA ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK A REALISTIC.

SO EMPLOYEE NUMBER IS FOR THAT.

YES, SIR. THAT SEEMS LIKE HUGE.

THAT SEEMS HUGE. I HAVE I HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE COMMERCIAL SIDE.

FOR ME. THAT'S NOT MY THAT'S NOT MY SPACE.

BUT THE STATISTICS, ACTUALLY FOUR EMPLOYEES PER 1000FT².

SO THAT STATISTIC OF POTENTIALLY EVEN A CUBICLE SLASH CALL CENTER SCENARIO I CAN TELL YOU THAT EVEN A TEXT AS BEING WATCHED THIS EVENING THAT CUBICLES AND CALL CENTERS CAN'T AFFORD THE RENT.

AND THAT'S NOT A, THAT'S NOT A VERY FAVORABLE OR PROFITABLE BUSINESS TO BE DOING THAT.

AND IT'S SOMETHING OF THIS NATURE.

SO THE, THE BUSINESS OF 23,000 SQUARE FOOT, FIVE OF IT WILL BE WILLOW TREE, WHICH I EMPLOY NINE EMPLOYEES.

SO THAT'S ACTUALLY LESS THAN THE STATISTIC.

AND IN MY AV COMPANY, THERE'S THAT THERE'S AN AV COMPANY THAT APPROACHED ME THAT THEY ALSO HAVE SIX EMPLOYEES THAT COME TO THE OFFICE, AND THEY WANT 4000FT².

AGAIN, LOWERING THE STATISTICS DOWNSTAIRS WE WERE LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT SHOWROOM TYPE OPPORTUNITIES, BUT AGAIN, THOSE THOSE WILL BE FAR LESS THAN THE STATISTIC AS WELL, BECAUSE THEY USUALLY EMPLOY IF THEY WANT AN 8000 SQUARE FOOT, PROBABLY EMPLOY, YOU KNOW, 8 TO 10 PEOPLE IN THAT, IN THAT, IN THAT SCENARIO.

SO THE THE BUILDING IS NOT GOING TO BE OVERRAN BY ANY CALL CENTERS.

I WILL BE ONE OF THE, THE OWNERS SLASH TENANTS THERE.

WE'RE NOT ALLOWING A CUBICLE HAVEN OF JUST, JUST PACK THEM IN TYPE PRODUCT.

SO IT IS GOING TO BE A HIGH END AND AND EXECUTIVE TYPE PROFESSIONAL OFFICE BUILDING.

SO FEEL PRETTY CONFIDENT.

LESS THAN 100. YES.

YEAH. THEY'RE A GOOD RULE OF THUMB IS ONE PER EVERY 250FT², WHICH WOULD BE 92 ON THIS.

AND IS THAT WHAT SOMEONE THAT'S FAMILIAR WITH TRAFFIC STUDIES? IS THAT THE KIND OF NUMBERS THEY USE FOR THAT, FOR THE COMMERCIAL PIECE, IS THAT THE.

YEAH. THAT'S IT. OKAY.

OKAY. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN AIRCRAFT ENGINEER.

OKAY, WE WERE KIND OF WONDERING WHO THAT GUY WAS.

YEAH. THIS IS OUR TRAFFIC ENGINEER FROM KIMLEY-HORN.

SO IF YOU GUYS HAVE QUESTIONS, HE'S.

HE'S HERE. THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT RIGHT NOW.

OKAY. GO AHEAD.

YEAH. THANK YOU.

FIRST OF ALL, TRAVIS, THANKS FOR.

I MEAN, THANKS TO THE COMMUNITY.

THANKS TO YOU, CURTIS. I MEAN, I KNOW THIS IS A WE'VE BEEN RIDING THIS RIDE FOR A WHILE NOW, AND IT'S IT'S A TOUGH ONE.

SO YOU KIND OF ALLUDED TO IT BEFORE I EVEN ASKED THIS QUESTION.

SO I THINK I KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU.

AND THAT IS IF IF THIS THING WERE TO GET APPROVED FOR JUST STRAIGHT SF 20 DOWN CROSS WITH A CUL DE SAC AND AND A ZONING CHANGE TO ALLOW OR EXCUSE ME, THE LAND USE PLAN CHANGE TO ALLOW FOR THE OFFICE AND SO FORTH.

CAN THAT DEAL GET DONE? BECAUSE YOU'VE SAID YOU'VE ALLUDED TO THAT.

SO YEAH. SO THAT DEAL CAN BE DONE.

IT WOULD BE WE'RE LOOKING AT 16.

I WOULD SEE IF WE COULD GET, YOU KNOW JUST THE WAY WE IF WE LOSE THE COMMERCIAL BUILDING, WHICH WE HAVE NOT DRAWN THAT PIECE, LOSING THE COMMERCIAL BUILDING, WE JUST KNOW WE CAN GET AT LEAST 16.

I'M TALKING ABOUT WITH THE COMMERCIAL BUILDING WITH WITH THE COMMERCIAL BUILDING, IT WOULD JUMP DOWN TO.

IT'D BE 13.

YEAH. 13. WE'RE THINKING ABOUT SIX ON EACH SIDE.

6 OR 7. YOU KNOW FINANCIALLY WE THAT WOULD BE ON THE THIN LINE.

BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, IF THAT'S WHAT IS THE ONLY THING THAT CAN BE DEVELOPED HERE, THAT'S WHAT IT WOULD BE.

HAVE TO I'D LIKE TO TABLE THAT IF WE COULD AND GO OVER TO A, YOU KNOW, GO DO MY RESEARCH AND PERFORM IT.

BUT IT'S DOABLE.

YEAH. WELL, I MEAN, THE REASON I RAISED THAT OUT IS, IS YOU KNOW, ON THESE TOUGH ONES.

FIRST OF ALL, AND THIS IS WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, I THINK YOU GUYS KNOW I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH YOU GUYS, I KNOW YOU.

BUT I THINK THAT THE NARRATIVE OF IT FEELS ALMOST, ALMOST LIKE A LITTLE BIT OF A GASLIGHTING THAT, YOU KNOW, SOUTHLAKE YOU'RE NOT PROGRESSIVE ENOUGH.

YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH OF THESE TYPES OF HOUSES HERE.

WE NEED MORE OF THEM. WE NEED MORE.

WE DO HAVE THEM. AND IF I LOOK AT MY TIME ON COUNCIL FROM, YOU KNOW, STARTING IN 2013 TILL NOW, WHERE WE HAD VIRTUALLY NOTHING LIKE THIS, AND NOW WE HAVE CAROLINE, WE HAVE TOWN SQUARE, WE HAVE I MEAN, WE HAVE WE HAVE VARIETY ALL OVER THE PLACE.

SO I, I'M NOT SURE I CAN TAG ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT, YOU KNOW, IF SOMEBODY WANTS THIS TYPE OF HOUSING, THEY CAN'T GET IT IN SOUTHLAKE.

THAT'S JUST MY OPINION.

BUT WITH THAT SAID, I MEAN, YOU KNOW, ON THESE TYPES OF CASES THAT ARE DIFFICULT SOMETIMES I JUST GO RIGHT BACK TO WHAT THE LAND USE PLAN WAS, WHAT WAS THE INTENTION?

[02:50:07]

I MEAN, THAT'S THAT WAS A BIG PIECE.

AND WHEN YOU GO OUT AND SIT AT THE END OF CROSS AND I'VE DONE THAT TO JUST SIT AND LOOK AT THIS AND THAT WAS THAT'S THE INTENT OF THAT LAND USE PLAN.

THAT WAS THE INTENT. AND WE'RE NOT PROPOSING TO CONNECT CROSS LAND, I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT EVEN WITH THE GATE AT THE OFFICE, I MEAN, THINGS FIND A WAY, THINGS FIND A WAY, YOU KNOW, ACCESS PEOPLE GET ACCESS IN DIFFERENT WAYS AND SO FORTH.

SO. BUT THERE'S ALSO AN EMERGENCY ENTRY.

I UNDERSTAND THAT, YEAH, I UNDERSTAND, BUT BUT WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT, THOUGH, IS IF WE JUST DID A STRAIGHT SF 20 WITH CROSS OPEN THE WAY IT SHOULD BE, IT'S ALREADY STUBBED OUT.

IT WOULD OPEN UP TO JUST 13 MORE HOUSES.

WHATEVER THAT NUMBER ENDS UP, IT ENDS AT A CUL DE SAC WITH A BEAUTIFUL OFFICE, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT SHOULD GO RIGHT THERE ON CARROLL.

I MEAN, THAT MAKES SENSE.

NOBODY WANTS THAT DRIVEWAY THERE.

I JUST NEED TO KNOW, IS THAT A VIABLE OPTION? I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING ABOUT.

YEAH, IF WE GOT THERE, AND I'M NOT SAYING THAT'S WHERE WE ARE, BUT IF WE GOT THERE THAT YOU'D NEED TO HAVE SOME TIME TO TALK ABOUT THAT.

IT DEFINITELY WOULD BE TOUGH TO DO.

I DEFINITELY WANT TO GO BACK AND TABLE THAT.

IF THAT'S IF THAT'S WHERE WE GET TO FOR SURE.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, I WOULD THIS LAND WILL LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT TO BE DEVELOPED AND THERE'S GOT TO BE OUT OF THE EIGHT PLANS.

THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING WE CAN ACCOMPLISH.

RIGHT. I THINK WE'VE I MEAN, WE'VE EXHAUSTED I DON'T KNOW ANY OTHER WAY TO REDESIGN THIS THING, BUT HAPPY.

WELL, AND I WANT TO AND I WANT TO BE CLEAR, TOO.

AND I THINK I ALLUDED TO THIS AT FIRST READING IS I FULLY SUPPORT THIS BEING DEVELOPED.

YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, THE LANDOWNER HAS A RIGHT TO DEVELOP THEIR LAND AND I FULLY SUPPORT IT.

I JUST WANT TO GET TO THE RIGHT PLACE.

OKAY. ANYONE ELSE WITH QUESTIONS, GO AHEAD.

KATHY. YEAH.

AGAIN. THANK YOU. THANK THANK YOU EVERYBODY.

THIS IS A IT'S A PRETTY TOUGH ONE.

BUT I AGREE WITH COUNCIL MEMBER WILLIAMSON IN THAT IF WE CAN GET SOMEWHERE WITH WITH MORE OF THAT SP 20.

I STILL, AS I'VE SAID PREVIOUSLY, I STILL TODAY BELIEVE THAT CROSS LANE SHOULD BE OPEN WITH OR WITHOUT A GATE, NOT AN EMERGENCY GATE.

I, I DON'T THINK THE OFFICE TRAFFIC AND THE AND THE RESIDENTIAL TRAFFIC SHOULD BE CO-MINGLED OR COMBINED.

SO IF YOU WERE TO PROPOSE SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND MORE IN LINE WITH WHAT RANDY WAS SUGGESTING, I WOULD STILL WANT A GATED PIECE BETWEEN THE RESIDENTIAL AND THE OFFICE WHERE THAT ONLY THE RESIDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO, AND FROM THAT GATE.

I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT.

THAT SEPARATES THAT TRAFFIC THAT'S COMING IN AND OUT OF CAROL DURING THE PEAK TIMES, WHICH I STILL HAVE CONCERNS OVER.

BUT I JUST I THINK THE RESIDENTS, SINCE THIS IS WHERE AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS, LET'S GIVE THEM MORE THAN ONE OPTION IN AND OUT OF WHERE THEY LIVE. WE HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY.

AND SO I'VE BEEN A PROPONENT OF THAT SINCE THIS WAS FIRST PRESENTED, AND I HAVEN'T CHANGED MY MIND.

SO WHATEVER YOU DO ON THE CROSS LANE END, I, I LIKE THE GATED ACCESS FOR THE RESIDENTS ONLY.

COUNCIL MEMBER TALLEY. JUST TO CLARIFY, WHAT I WAS SUGGESTING, THOUGH, IS, IS WHAT WAS CONSISTENT WITH THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE LAND USE PLAN, WHICH WOULD BE THAT IT WOULD CUL DE SAC OUT AT THE END OF CROSS.

SO THEN YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANY ACCESS.

TO THE OFFICE. YEAH, I GUESS I'LL, I'LL.

I'LL I HAVE A DIFFERENT VIEW OF THAT.

OKAY. YEAH. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN.

CUL DE SAC OUT. HOW WOULD THE THE.

YEAH, IT WOULD END.

THERE'D BE A CUL DE SAC AT THE END AT THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE OFFICE.

ALL TRAFFIC WOULD JUST LINE AND COME OUT OF CROSS LANE, RIGHT.

YEAH. EVERY CAR.

YEAH. BUT I MEAN, YOU COULD ARGUE NOW THAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT AT LEAST AT THIS POINT LIKELY.

THE SAME TRAFFIC.

YEAH. MR. WILLIAMSON, I ACTUALLY, WE I BELIEVE OUR TRAFFIC GUY HAS A STUDY SHOWING THE DIFFERENCES OF WHERE THE TRAFFIC WOULD, YOU KNOW, PER STUDY, AGAIN, DATA THAT I CAN'T TELL YOU WHERE THEY CAME UP WITH, BUT THEY THEY DO HAVE TRAFFIC SHOWING, YOU KNOW, THE DIRECTIONS THAT PEOPLE WOULD TAKE LEFT AND RIGHT, PER THEIR REVIEW.

SO I'M NOT I CAN'T SPEAK TO THAT.

HE CAN. SO IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT IF THEY TAKE CROSS LANE VERSUS CARROLL, WE HAVE WE PROBABLY HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT INFORMATION.

SO I'LL CHIME IN.

I LAND WITH COUNCIL MEMBER ROBBINS.

I LIKE THIS HYBRID PLAN AS IT IS.

HOWEVER I THINK IT I THINK IT COULD GET A LITTLE LESS DENSE.

I THINK IF WE JUST STRIPPED A LITTLE BIT, WE WENT FROM 23 DOWN TO 20 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

HOWEVER, I REALLY, REALLY WANT CROSS LANE OPEN.

I THINK IT'S A PIVOTAL PIECE FOR THE NEIGHBORS.

[02:55:04]

I HEAR THE NEIGHBORS.

I HEAR ABOUT THE KIDDOS AND THE SAFETY AND THE THE BUSSES, AND I HEAR THAT I JUST I THINK IT'S THE BEST THING, WHETHER THERE'S 12 HOMES IN HERE OR 20. I REALLY THINK IT'S THE BEST THING THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS OUT.

1709 VERSUS THIS, YOU KNOW, GOING TO CAROL MAKING U-TURNS.

AND IF THEY WANT TO RUN TO TOM THUMB, THE BEST WAY TO RUN TO TOM THUMB IS JUST STRAIGHT DOWN CROSS LANE.

NOW, IF THAT'S A GATED PRIVATE ACCESS ONLY WE DON'T WANT CUT THROUGH, RIGHT.

NOBODY WANTS CUT THROUGH FROM CAROL THROUGH.

AND IT'S JUST THOSE RESIDENTS AND NOT THE OFFICE PEOPLE.

THEN THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN MAKE HAPPEN.

BUT I REALLY THE I LIKE THIS PLAN.

AND THE REASON I LIKE THIS PLAN IS BECAUSE I DO THINK THERE'S A MARKET FOR IT IN SOUTHLAKE.

I LIKE THE THE PROXIMITY TO TOWN SQUARE FOR THE WALKABILITY.

I LIKE THAT THERE'S NO WINDOWS ON THE REAR SIDE.

WE I'VE HAD A COUPLE OF OWNERS ON ON B TALK TO ME ABOUT THAT.

AND THAT'S WHY THEY SUPPORT THIS VERSUS ALL JUST STRAIGHT HALF ACRE LOTS.

BECAUSE THEN THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TWO STORY HOMES WITH WINDOWS PEERING INTO THEIR BACKYARDS.

SO I DEFINITELY HAVE HEARD ALL SIDES, BOTH SIDES.

I LIKE THE COMMERCIAL PIECE ON THE FRONT.

AND I ACTUALLY EVEN LIKE THE DESIGN.

I THINK IT'S SIMILAR TO, LIKE, THE DEL FRISCO'S GRILLE BUILDING ACROSS THE STREET.

I THINK THE, THE GARDEN OFFICE THAT WE KEEP TALKING ABOUT, THAT'S FURTHER NORTH ON CARROLL.

THAT'S KIND OF A DIFFERENT FEEL.

I LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW, TOWN SQUARE AND KIND OF BEING IN IN PROXIMITY TO TOWN SQUARE, BEING A LITTLE BIT MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH THE MODERN LOOK.

I LIKE THAT.

AND I'M NOT SO SUPER CONCERNED ABOUT A TWO STORY BUILDING EITHER, BUT I, I'M NOT SURE THAT I MIGHT BE IN THE MINORITY ON THAT.

BECAUSE IT IS KIND OF A PROMINENT CORNER RIGHT THERE.

AND YOU'VE GOT CONTAINER STORE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET AND DEL FRISCO'S GRILLE RIGHT THERE.

SO THAT'S WHERE I LAND WITH IT.

AND. HOWEVER, IF I'M IN THE MINORITY AND WE END UP STRAIGHT SF 20, I CAN GET BEHIND THAT TOO.

WELL, I'LL JUST SAY I THAT'S WHAT I'M MOST AGAINST.

I'M MOST AGAINST PUTTING ALL OF THE BURDEN ON THE RESIDENTS WHO LIVE ON CROSS LANE.

I'M ALSO AGAINST PUTTING ALL OF THE TRAFFIC ONTO TO FOR THE VILLAS, ONTO 1709, TO CARROLL.

BECAUSE THE REALITY IS, AND WE'VE ALL DRIVEN THIS AND MANY OF US DRIVE IT EVERY DAY.

TO YOUR POINT, COUNCILWOMAN, IT'S GOING TO BE EASIER FOR PEOPLE TO MENTALLY TO GET IN AND OUT OF CROSS LANE.

SO THAT'S THE ROAD THAT'S GOING TO BE USED THE MOST.

MY THINKING WHERE I LAND IS I'M TOTALLY AGAINST PUTTING THE BURDEN ON THE RESIDENTS OF CROSS LANE.

IT SHOULD BE AN EXIT ON THE ON THE SOUTHERN PART WHERE THESE VILLAS ARE ON THE BOTTOM.

IT'S IN. IT SHOULDN'T BE JUST.

BUT WE CAN'T DO THAT. THAT'S PRIVATE PROPERTY.

WE CAN'T. WHAT I'M SAYING IS, WHERE I LAND IS I.

I'M AGAINST PUTTING ALL THE BURDEN ON CROSS LANE.

SO YOU'RE AGAINST NEIGHBORS DRIVING PAST OTHER NEIGHBORS TO LEAVE THEIR HOUSE.

AND THAT BEING THE ONLY OPTION? YES. NO, IT'S NOT THE ONLY WHAT I'M.

WHAT I'M SAYING IS, WHAT IF THEY HAD ACCESS OUT TO CAROL, BUT THEY ALSO HAD ACCESS OUT CROSS LANE AND NOT LET.

AND IT BE A GATED ENTRANCE HERE.

SO YOU DON'T LET FOLKS COME TO THROUGH CAROL AND TRY TO SPEED THROUGH AND CUT THROUGH.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. BUT I THOUGHT IT SHOULDN'T BE STUBBED OUT TO CAROL.

AS IT LOOKS RIGHT NOW.

WHAT AM I MISSING? I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, COUNCIL MEMBER SMITH, BUT.

BUT I GUESS WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER IS SAYING IS YOU STATED I'M AGAINST PUTTING IT ON THE CROSS NEIGHBORS, AND I'M AGAINST PUTTING IT ON CARROLL.

AND YOU'RE. AND YOU'RE FOR PUTTING IT OUT ON THE SOUTH PROPERTY, WHICH IS PRIVATE PROPERTY.

SO WE CAN'T THAT'S NOT AN OPTION.

WHAT I'M SAYING IS WE NEED MORE.

WE NEED MORE THAN ONE ACCESS POINT AND I'M AGAINST PUTTING IT ALL ON CROSS LANE.

YOUR ONLY TWO OPTIONS ARE CARROLL AND CROSS.

THAT'S IT, THAT'S IT. SO YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT.

SO FRANKLY THAT'S WHAT THIS PLAN DOES.

IT GOES BOTH DIRECTIONS.

THAT'S. THAT WAS THE POINT.

THAT'S IT. CORRECT? I MEAN, WHAT AM I MISSING? THIS ISN'T PARTICLE PHYSICS. I MEAN, I GET THAT, BUT THE PLAN YOU PUT IN FRONT OF US HERE IS IT'S EMERGENCY.

ONLY THOSE FIVE HOMES ON THE LEFT WOULD ALL GO TO CROSS LANE.

THAT WOULD BE THEIR ONLY ACCESS.

THE SEVEN, THE THE 18 REMAINING BELOW HOMES WOULD HAVE ACCESS TO TO CARE.

SO SOME WOULD GO ONE WAY, SOME WOULD GO THE OTHER WAY.

NOW WE CAN VARY THAT PERCENTAGE IF YOU WANT.

WE AS A COUNCIL CAN SAY THAT'S NOT AN EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY THAT'S THAT'S A GATED RESIDENT ONLY.

[03:00:02]

ENTRANCE AND EGRESS.

PERIOD. WE CAN MAKE THAT DECISION, RIGHT? SO THAT'LL GIVE YOU THE PUBLIC LAND.

YES. SO WHAT I WAS SAYING, RONELL IS INSTEAD OF IT, INSTEAD OF LIKE TO COUNCIL MEMBER ROBIN'S POINT, INSTEAD OF MAKING IT AN EMERGENCY GATED ACCESS ONLY MAKE IT A RESIDENT.

ACCESS ONLY.

BOTH SIDES.

THROUGH BOTH HANDS. YES, YES.

MAYOR PRO TEM WILLIAMSON, YOU HAVE YOUR MICROPHONE STILL ON? DID YOU WANT TO SPEAK SOME MORE OR.

I DO NOT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

I THINK YOU GUYS CAN HAVE A SEAT.

THANKS, GUYS. THANK YOU SIR.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION UP HERE? WELL, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO AGREE WITH COUNCIL MEMBER ROBINSON ABOUT THE SF 20, AND I'LL JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT.

WILLIAMSON, I THINK THAT.

IT'S GETTING LATE, SO IT'S NO PROBLEM.

WELL, MAYOR PRO TEM WILLIAMSON, AS THE MAYOR PRO TEM, YOU TYPICALLY GET TO MAKE THE MOTIONS.

ARE YOU READY TO MAKE A MOTION OR.

YEAH. NO, I'M NOT PREPARED TO MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL AT THIS POINT.

YOU MAKE WHATEVER MOTION YOU WANT.

WELL, I'LL ASK THE CITY ATTORNEY.

IS THERE ANY.

AND I KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT THERE'S NO.

LEGAL ORDER.

WE HAVE TO DO THESE. AND IF THERE'S A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT CAN BE FIRST OR A MOTION TO DENY CAN COME FIRST.

THAT IS CORRECT, MR. MAYOR. IT IS UP TO THE DISCRETION OF THE LEGISLATIVE BODY AS TO WHICH TYPE OF MOTION YOU MAKE.

AND OF COURSE, OBVIOUSLY YOU CAN YOU CAN MAKE ANY ZONING DECISION.

ON THE PROPERTY INVOLVED THAT IS CONTAINED WITHIN THE BREADTH OF THE NOTICE.

FOR INSTANCE, IF IT WAS, THE NOTICE WAS FOR MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL YOU ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE CONSTRUED AS MEDIUM DENSITY OR COMMERCIAL, YOU CAN ZONE THE PROPERTY TO THAT CATEGORY BASED UPON THE NOTICE THAT HAS BEEN DISSEMINATED AND THE AGENDAS THAT HAVE BEEN POSTED.

AND IF THE COUNCIL WANTED TO ACQUIESCE IN AT LEAST SOME OF THE COMMENTS FROM THE APPLICANT THAT MAYBE THEY WANTED TO TABLE IT AND LOOK AT SOME OTHER CONFIGURATION, THAT'S A VALID MOTION IF THE COUNCIL WANTS TO CONSIDER IT.

BUT PLEASE REMEMBER, THE MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT PASSES BY A SIMPLE MAJORITY.

IF WHEN WE REACH THE ZONING CASE, IT WILL TAKE A SUPERMAJORITY OF AT LEAST SIX MEMBERS TO PASS THE PLAN AND MAKE IT EFFECTIVE BASED UPON THE WRITTEN PROTEST.

AND AGAIN, SIX A IS THE MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT AND SIX B IS THE ZONING THAT IS CORRECT.

AND IF AND IF THEY CANNOT ACHIEVE A MOTION AND VOTE, GETTING SIX AFFIRMATIVE VOTES TO PASS THE PLAN ON THE ZONING CASE, THEN THE MATTER DIES BY OPERATION OF LAW.

BECAUSE THE STATUTE AND THE ORDINANCE BOTH SPECIFICALLY PROVIDE IT CANNOT BECOME EFFECTIVE WITHOUT THE SUPERMAJORITY VOTE.

SOMETIMES WE NEED A MOTION TO DENY TO FERM THE RECORD.

IN THESE RARE INSTANCES WHERE WE'RE DEALING WITH THE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION ELEMENT, WHERE WE HAVE THE WRITTEN PROTESTS, THE STATE STATUTE REQUIRES THE SUPERMAJORITY VOTE.

AND SO IF IT FAILS TO ACHIEVE THAT, IT IS DENIED BY OPERATION OF LAW.

AND I THINK YOU ALREADY SPOKE TO THIS, BUT WHOEVER MAKES A MOTION, WHETHER IT'S THE DEPUTY OR THE MAYOR PRO TEM OR ANYONE ELSE, THEY CAN MAKE A MOTION THAT SAYS WE'RE APPROVING SF 20 ONLY RESIDENTIAL WITH THE OFFICE BUILDING WITH CROSS LANE OPEN, CROSS LANE GATED, WE'RE NOT LIMITED TO WHAT'S BEEN PRESENTED. THERE COULD BE A HYBRID OR SOMETHING ELSE THAT'S PRESENTED OR SPOKEN TO BY COUNCIL, RIGHT DURING A MOTION.

THAT IS CORRECT. HOWEVER, WE WOULD NEED TO NOTE THAT THE APPLICANT MUST THEN BRING A SITE PLAN FORWARD TO REFLECT THE ACTUAL LOCATIONAL DYNAMICS ON THE SITE THAT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE SAME ISSUES THAT WOULD BE HELD IN A ZONING CASE.

IT'S SIMPLY A DESIGN ISSUE.

IF THEY PUT IF THEY'RE TOLD TO DO SF 20 AND EVERY ONE OF THEIR LOTS IS SF 20, THEY'RE ESSENTIALLY IN A, ALTHOUGH WE CALL IT A SITE PLAN REVIEW, IT'S ALMOST A PLANNING REVIEW AT THAT POINT.

IT'S MORE MINISTERIAL THAN DISCRETIONARY ON OUR PART AT THAT POINT.

YES, SIR. OKAY.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. TAYLOR AND MR. TAYLOR.

OR WITH REGARDS TO SIX A IS IT AN IS THERE AN OPTION TO MAKE THAT OR MAKE THAT MOTION AND ULTIMATELY APPROVE CONTINGENT UPON AN ULTIMATE ZONING APPROVAL OF SIX B? AT SOME POINT IT WOULD BE BETTER TO SIMPLY ADDRESS THE SIX A AND IF THE.

DECISION THE COUNCIL MAKES ON SIX A AFTER YOU'VE ADDRESSED SIX B, YOU THINK THEY'RE INCONSISTENT.

[03:05:02]

OKAY, SO, MAYOR, I'M PREPARED TO MAKE A MOTION ON SIX A AT THIS POINT.

SO, YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHERE I'M AT.

ALL RIGHT. GO AHEAD.

OKAY. MAYOR COUNCIL, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE ITEM SIX A OTHERWISE REFERRED TO AS ORDINANCE NUMBER 1269B CP 24-0001.

SECOND READING AMENDMENT TO THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE CONSOLIDATED FUTURE LAND USE PLAN, AN ELEMENT OF THE SOUTHLAKE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FOR THE OVERLOOK FOR PROPERTY, DESCRIBED AS A PORTION OF TRACK THREE C WW HALL SURVEY ABSTRACT 695, CITY OF SOUTHLAKE, TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS AND LOCATED AT 240 NORTH CARROLL AVENUE, SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.

SUBJECT TO THE STAFF REPORT DATED MAY 14TH, 2024, AND NOTING THAT WE'RE APPROVING AMENDING THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO ALLOW FOR OFFICE COMMERCIAL LAND USE FOR A PORTION OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTY WHERE THE EXISTING LAND USE IS MEDIUM DENSITY RESIDENTIAL.

SUBJECT TO STAFF REPORT DATED MAY 14TH, 2024.

ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE ON ITEM SIX A IS THERE A SECOND? SECOND. ALL RIGHT.

CAST YOUR VOTES ON SIX A.

AND THAT MOTION CARRIES 6 TO 1.

THAT IS ITEM SIX A ON THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN.

NEXT UP WE HAVE ITEM SIX B.

SO WHEN IT COMES TO SIX B, IF WE WANT TO LOOK AT, I MEAN, IS IT SOMETHING WE CAN ASK THE APPLICANT TO SEE IF HE WOULD PREFER? LET'S GIVE HIM GUIDANCE AS FAR AS, HEY, WE'RE GOING TO APPROVE THIS AT 20 LOTS, 20, 19 LOTS, WHATEVER THAT NUMBER IS.

OR I GUESS IF SOMEONE WANTED TO MAKE SOMETHING, I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE IT A STRAIGHT SF 20 I.

OR DO WE WANT TO SEE IF YOU'D RATHER IF YOU'D RATHER TABLE AND BRING BACK.

I'LL LEAVE THAT TO MR. TAYLOR TO SAY WHAT WE CAN AND CAN'T DO.

BUT I'M OPEN TO WHATEVER MR. TAYLOR SAYS WE CAN AND CANNOT DO.

MR. MAYOR, WHAT YOU CAN DO MAY NOT BE WHAT ANYBODY ELSE WANTS YOU.

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT THIS POINT TO ASK THE APPLICANT, WOULD YOU RATHER TABLE THE VOTE ON SIX B AND GO BACK AND REDRAW SOMETHING AND THEN TELL US WHAT YOU CAN LIVE WITH AND BRING IT BACK? AND WE SAID SIX B ON AN UPCOMING AGENDA.

OR YOU CAN SIMPLY OFFER THE THE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE TEASED ZONING, ALLOWING THE OFFICE BUILDING ON CARROLL AND REQUIRING THAT THE REMAINDER OF THE LOT BE DEVELOPED IN.

I'LL USE WHAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT AS IF 20 LOTS WITH ACCESS THROUGH CROSS DRIVE WITH A CUL DE SAC ADJACENT ON THE THE EAST SIDE AT THE REAR OF THE OF THE OFFICE PROPERTY.

YOU CAN GIVE THAT APPROVAL AND AND APPROVE IT IN THAT CONTEXT.

AND THEN THE APPLICANT WILL HAVE TO COME BACK WITH A SITE PLAN TO SHOW THE ACTUAL LAYOUT OF THE OF THE SF 20 LOTS, OR YOU CAN DO SOME VARIANT OF THAT.

IT'S UP TO THE COUNCIL AS TO WHERE YOU WANT TO GO, AND IT'S OKAY FOR ANY COUNCIL MEMBER, SPECIFICALLY COUNCILMEMBER ROBBINS, IF HE WANTS TO ASK THE APPLICANT THOSE TYPES OF QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT OTHER ALTERNATIVES THERE MAY BE, I THINK THE BETTER, PERHAPS THE BETTER WAY TO PHRASE IT MIGHT BE IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING NOW THE SF 20 LOTS AND SAY TO THE APPLICANT IF THAT, IF IF YOU NEED TIME TO LOOK AT THAT BEFORE WE ACTUALLY MAKE THE VOTE, THEN THEY CAN REQUEST THAT IT BE TABLED AND THE COUNCIL CAN CONSIDER WHETHER OR NOT TO TABLE IT.

BUT IF THE COUNCIL IS OF THE OPINION THE SF 20 IS JUST WHAT YOU WANT, IT MAY BE BETTER TO SIMPLY TELL THE APPLICANT.

NOW THAT'S THE BENCHMARK AND WE STOP THE BACK AND FORTH REDESIGNING AND THEY CAN USE THEIR MONEY FOR THEIR ENGINEERING AND PLANNING STAFF MORE EFFECTIVELY BY GOING, THAT'S THE BENCHMARK.

THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO HIT.

RIGHT. AND AND I CAN SAY I'M PREPARED TO MAKE THE MOTION THAT MR. TAYLOR TALKED ABOUT, BECAUSE THAT WAS THE COMMENTS THAT I MADE.

BUT I THINK AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER TO YOUR POINT ABOUT THE BACK AND FORTH AND THE COST ASSOCIATED WITH ALL THAT IS.

I MEAN, I HEARD ENOUGH VARYING OPINIONS UP HERE ABOUT GATES HERE GATE, THEIR ACCESS TO CAROL.

YES. NO COST.

YES. NO, I'M NOT SURE, AT LEAST FROM THE WAY MY EARS ARE.

THAT HOW YOU GET THERE, I FEEL LIKE.

AND THAT'S I ALSO DON'T WANT TO PUT THE, THE APPLICANT IN A POSITION WHERE HE'S JUST CHASING HIS TAIL.

AND THAT'S THE WORST THING THIS BODY CAN DO, IS TO SEND SOMEBODY ON THEIR WAY AND, AND GIVE THEM A RUBIK'S CUBE THAT CAN'T BE SOLVED.

SO THAT'S AT LEAST WHERE I'M AT, IS I'M PREPARED TO MAKE THAT MOTION ON THE ON THE WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE PLAN.

IT'S THE SF 20 A, IT'S CUL DE SAC, ALL ACCESS THROUGH CROSS AND AND THEN A SITE PLAN TO COME.

SO LET ME ASK YOU THIS.

[03:10:01]

I'M JUST SAYING WHERE I'M AT. LET ME ASK YOU THIS.

CAN YOU GET BEHIND SOMETHING THAT LOOKS THE OTHER THING I WANT I MEANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT THAT I DIDN'T LOOK AT WAS YOU'VE GOT MASONRY WALL AROUND THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF EVERYTHING, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE BETWEEN THE FIVE LOTS AND THE VILLAS, THERE IS NOT A MASONRY WALL.

IS THAT ACCURATE? THERE IS SO.

SO THE. SO EVERYTHING WITH THE VILLAS WOULD BE, WOULD BE SURROUNDED BY MASONRY.

AND THEN YOU WOULD JUST HAVE WOOD FENCE AROUND THE.

OKAY. THAT WAS, THAT WAS A BIG PIECE.

CAN YOU GET BEHIND SOMETHING LIKE, BECAUSE WE COULD APPROVE THIS WITH A TOTAL OF 20 LOTS ALTOGETHER, WHICH IS BASICALLY LEAVING THOSE FIVE THE LARGER LOTS AND THEN INCREASING THE SIZE OF THE VILLA LOTS, TAKING THAT 17 IN AND JUST KIND OF MAKING EVERYTHING MORE CENTRALIZED, BUT TAKING THE OVERALL DENSITY DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY SO THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT A DELTA OF 4 OR 5 LOTS VERSUS THE SF 20 AND STILL PROVIDING THE PRODUCT AND THE LOOK THAT WE'RE AT, ARE YOU ASKING THE APPLICANT OR I'M ASKING COUNCILMAN, I WAS GOING TO INVITE THEM TO COME UP TO ADDRESS THAT ON THE MICROPHONE.

BUT, I MEAN, I THINK THAT THERE'S NO POINT IN HIM.

WHAT WOULD THE APPLICANT WHERE WOULD THE ACCESS.

SO I WOULD I WOULD PROPOSE WE HAVE A GATED ACCESS OVER BY THE OFFICE AND GATED RESIDENT ONLY ACCESS EXITING TO CROSS WITHOUT THAT CUL DE SAC, JUST SO THAT THE THAT THE NEIGHBORS, ONLY THE RESIDENTS CAN GET IN AND OUT OF THERE.

THAT'S IT. THAT WOULD BE MY PROPOSAL.

I'M INTERESTED IN THAT AS WELL.

SO THE NET, THE NET INCREASE IN IN RESIDENCES WILL BE FOR ROUGHLY.

IT SHOULD BE ROUGHLY FOR. YEAH.

WITH WITH IN MR. TAYLOR, WITHIN THE ORDINANCE.

WITHIN THE ORDINANCE WE COULD MANDATE AS OR NOT THE ORDINANCE BUT THE APPROVAL THAT ACCESS VIA THE GATE IS ONLY AVAILABLE TO RESIDENTS FROM BOTH GATES.

YES. BECAUSE IT'S A IT'S A NON VESTED RIGHT DISTRICT.

IT IS ESSENTIALLY A PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT BEING THE ZONING DESIGNATION.

AND MR. TAYLOR, WHAT'S YOUR OPINION OF IF WE PROVIDE RESIDENT ONLY GATED ACCESS ON BOTH SIDES.

IS THAT CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE PLAN THAT SAYS WE WERE NOT PROVIDING ACCESS TO CROSS TO CARROLL.

I BELIEVE THE STAFF FEELS IT WOULD BE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT THE MASTER PLAN SAYS, BECAUSE WHAT THE MASTER PLAN WAS INFERRING WAS WE DID NOT WANT GENERAL OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AT ANY, OUR ACCESS TO THE COMMUNITY IN THAT AREA.

THIS WOULD LIMIT IT TO PEOPLE WHO ONLY LIVED, WHO OWNED THOSE LOTS AND LIVED IN THAT AREA.

THEY WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO CROSS ACCESS.

OTHERS WOULD NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO THAT, AND THAT WOULD APPLY TO DELIVERY TRUCKS, AMAZON, FEDEX, THEY COULDN'T GET THROUGH THERE.

SO ALL OF THAT TRAFFIC WOULD NOT BE DIVERTED INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

AS OPPOSED TO SF 20.

EVERY CAR WOULD GO THERE.

AND WOULD THAT I DON'T I DON'T WANT TO GET IN THE WEEDS, BUT GETTING IN THE WEEDS IS HOW YOU AVOID PROBLEMS DOWN THE ROAD.

CAN CAN WE CAN WE APPROVE AS PART OF THAT APPROVAL? EVEN THE TYPE OF GATING WOULD BE BADGER GATING, NOT COMBINATION GATING.

BECAUSE AGAIN, IF YOU HAVE A COMBINATION, YOU KNOW, THE TOUCH TONE KIND OF THING THAT THAT JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD HAS THAT.

I THINK WE COULD INCLUDE THAT IN THE, IN THE ZONING DISTRICT APPROVAL.

NOW, I EVERYBODY NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND, BASED ON THE MOTION YOU GENERATE TONIGHT, IF IT'S ONE OF THESE INTERESTING MOTIONS WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO REDRAFT THE ORDINANCE THAT WOULD APPROVE THE ZONING TO ACCOMMODATE WHAT YOU SAY.

SO WE WON'T SIGN A FINAL ONE TONIGHT, BUT WE WILL INCORPORATE WHAT YOU DESIRE INTO THAT ORDINANCE AND EFFECTIVELY FOR THE LAND USE PEOPLE AROUND HERE.

UNDOUBTEDLY, THE DEVELOPERS WOULD ACCOMMODATE A LOT OF THIS THROUGH THE COVENANTS, CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS IN THE DEED, RESTRICTIONS APPLICABLE TO THE DEVELOPMENT THAT THEY'RE SETTING UP.

SO WE WOULD WE WOULD ACCOMMODATE IT TWO DIFFERENT WAYS, BUT IT WOULD BE PART OF THE ZONING REGULATION AND ENFORCEABLE BY THE CITY.

AND I MEAN, THANK YOU.

AND IF WE GET THERE, I'M GOING TO NEED YOUR HELP WORKING THROUGH THIS MOTION.

BUT THE I DO AGREE WITH COUNCIL MEMBER ROBBINS WITH THE THOUGHT PROCESS OF.

SF 20 WITH A CUL DE SAC AND LET'S WHATEVER THAT, LET'S JUST CALL IT 14 HOMES, SOMETHING LIKE THAT VERSUS 20.

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HERE? YOU'RE 23 HERE. 23.

20 VERSUS 23.

JUST FLIP A COIN AT 23.

11 ARE GOING TO GO ONE WAY.

11 ARE GOING TO GO THE OTHER.

IT MAY BE 13 GOES ONE AND TEN GOES THE OTHER.

BUT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT 11.

SO IT'S IT'S REALLY IT'S GETTING PRETTY DARN CLOSE TO A WASH WITH THE TRAFFIC IS AND AND I WANT TO STAY TRUE TO WHAT I SAID, WHICH IS I DO BELIEVE THE PROPERTY SHOULD BE

[03:15:03]

THAT'S THAT'S THE INTENT HERE.

SO YEAH, IF WE CAN GET THAT MOTION WORKING TOGETHER, IF WE CAN GET THAT THING CRAFTED, I CAN I CAN GET BEHIND THAT.

SO. TRAVIS.

YOU WANT TO COME UP TO THE PODIUM? I THINK WE JUST NEED TO GO THROUGH THESE.

WE WANT TO SPEND 30 MINUTES PUTTING THIS TOGETHER.

AND YOU SAY YOU DON'T WANT IT.

WELL, I MEAN, IS THAT DOES THAT COMPROMISE SOUND LIKE SOMETHING THAT'S.

YEAH. SO I AGREE AND I WOULD WILLING TO DO THAT AS WELL, THAT IF WE WERE TO KEEP THE RESIDENTIAL THE LARGER LOTS, AS YOU SAID, AND ELIMINATE A FEW LOTS TO GET THE TOTAL OF 20 WHEN WE EXPAND THE DENSITY, WHICH RIGHT NOW JUST REMEMBER, WE'RE AT 2.4 WE'D PROBABLY GET IT DOWN TO PRETTY CLOSE TO 2.1, YOU KNOW, SO WE'RE NOT REALLY TALKING ABOUT OVER THE TWO UNIT PER ACRE SCENARIO OF WHAT A TRUE HALF ACRE OR MEDIUM DENSITY IS, I THINK WOULD BE.

I'D BE. I'D LOVE TO SEE THAT AS WELL.

IT WOULD DEFINITELY REDUCE THE DENSITY, WHICH, YOU KNOW, I'M FINE WITH THAT.

WELL, AND TRUTH BE TOLD, YOU'RE NOT IT'S NOT A TON.

BUT WHERE THE CUL DE SAC IS NOW, YOU'RE PICKING UP THOSE LOTS ARE GOING TO GET A LITTLE BIT BIGGER WHERE YOUR EYEBROW IS ON THE THE WEST SIDE BY THE BY THE CURRENT EMERGENCY GATE, YOU'RE GOING TO PICK UP, YOU KNOW, DEVELOP A LAND THERE TOO, RIGHT? BECAUSE NOW YOU HAVE ACCESS.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE ALL THIS MASSIVE TURNAROUND SPOT THAT'S RIGHT THERE.

YES, SIR. SO AND YEAH.

AND THIS DOES LOCK DOWN, THIS LOCKS DOWN THE TRAFFIC CONCERN ABOUT FOR SURE.

IT LOCKS DOWN PASS THROUGH TRAFFIC.

THAT'S IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO GO FROM CAROL ALL THE WAY THROUGH CROSS IF YOU HAVE TWO BADGE, TWO GATES.

YES. IN BETWEEN YOU.

AND THAT'S JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

AND AND IN TURN, IT TAKES AND YOU KNOW, AND TAKING THE RESIDENTS AT THEIR WORD ON THIS IF, IF THE BELIEF IS THAT, YEAH, WE KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE DEVELOPED, IF IT WAS GOING TO END UP BEING 12 HALF HOUR, 12, 14 HALF ACRE LOTS VERSUS YOU KNOW WHAT, THIS IS A FEW MORE.

THAT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A FAIR SPOT.

YES, SIR. TRAVIS, ARE YOU COMFORTABLE BEING THAT SPECIFIC? I JUST GATE TECHNOLOGY IS CAN BE CHALLENGING.

ARE YOU COMFORTABLE BEING THAT SPECIFIC ON THAT KIND OF WORDING FOR THE TYPE OF GATE ACCESS OR WHERE IT'S NOT A KEYPAD? I MEAN, FROM A LEGAL CODE SCENARIO, I WOULD OBVIOUSLY DON'T KNOW THAT ANSWER, BUT I WOULD SAY YES, I WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE.

WE'RE IN SEVERAL OTHER SUBDIVISIONS THAT ARE REQUIRED THAT HAVE 24 HOUR LIVE GUARD ACCESS, EVEN THAT IT'S A VIRTUAL GUARD, BUT IT'S 24 HOURS.

SO THERE'S LOTS OF DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGY NOWADAYS THAT WILL ALLOW IT JUST NOT TO BE A KEYPAD, WHETHER IT BE A BADGE, A FILE OR WHATEVER IT IS.

BUT A KEYPAD IS THE ONE THING YOU CAN'T HAVE BECAUSE LIKE SOMEONE LIKE VAQUERO WOULD HAVE, LIKE WOULD BE TIED TO YOUR LICENSE PLATE.

YEAH. SO IT'D BE JUST A MANDATORY YOU HAVE TO HAVE A RESIDENT LOT TO BE ACCESSED TO THE COMMUNITY.

OKAY, SO CAN I GET SOME CLARIFICATION ABOUT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

SO FSF 20 THERE WOULD BE 14 LOTS CORRECT.

AM I CORRECT ABOUT THAT.

TO IF IT'S SF 20 DEPENDS ON WHICH PGR YEAH, SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 1416 SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

WE I DON'T THINK WE'VE CALCULATED IT YET.

COUNCIL MEMBER EXACTLY.

THEY'RE ESTIMATING 13 TO 14 LOTS.

IF IT WAS ALL DEVELOPED AT SF 20 STANDARDS.

AND AS I UNDERSTAND, COUNCILMEMBER ROBINSON'S SUGGESTION IS THE REQUIREMENT WOULD BE THE FIVE EXISTING SF 20 TYPE LOTS ALREADY ON THE WESTERN END WOULD REMAIN, AND THAT THE BALANCE OF THE PROPERTY WOULD BE, WOULD WOULD HANDLE, I GUESS THE OTHER 15 LOTS AND THEY WOULD BE DIVIDED ALONG THERE, AND THERE WOULD BE A CUL DE SAC ON THE EASTERN TERMINUS OF THAT INTERIOR ROAD, WHICH WOULD BE CROSS.

SO ULTIMATELY, HOW MANY HOUSES WILL WE END UP WITH? THAT'S THE REAL QUESTION I HAVE.

2020. YEAH OKAY.

AND IS THAT 23 RIGHT NOW? YEAH. SO WE'RE REDUCING IT BY THREE.

THREE MORE. YEAH. THANK YOU.

THAT'S THAT'S WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR.

THANK YOU. AND HOW ARE WE FEELING AS A COUNCIL ABOUT THE THE CUL DE SAC ON THE EASTERN END VERSUS RESIDENT ACCESS ONLY VIA CAROL.

BECAUSE I KEEP HEARING CUL DE SAC AT OFF AT THE, AT THE WE'RE TAKING THAT OUT.

WE'RE TAKING THAT. IT'LL BE GATE ACCESS.

TAKING IT OUT. YEP. RANDY, YOU GOOD WITH THIS MOTION? DO YOU WANT ME TO DO IT? YEAH.

NO, I'M GETTING THERE. AND MAYOR PRO TEM, YOU KNOW, WE'VE DONE IT BEFORE WHERE WE'VE HAD COMPLICATED MOTIONS.

IF YOU JUST WANT TO KIND OF TALK THROUGH IT WITH MR. TAYLOR, LISTENING BEFORE YOU MAKE IT A REAL MOTION.

I THINK WE CAN DO THAT.

MR. FRANKS. YOU CAN SIT DOWN FOR A SECOND.

IS ONE MORE QUESTION.

IS THIS VOTE STILL A SUPERMAJORITY? YES. YES, MA'AM.

THANK YOU. BUT I WOULD PREFER FOR US TO VOTE TONIGHT.

I MEAN, THE TABLING THING.

I AGREE, RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN TO SIX MEETINGS I THINK.

SO LET'S LET'S TAKE A SHOT AT AT A, AT A MOTION AND AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.

I'M GOING TO START WITH THE BASIC MOTION AS WELL AS THE NUMBER OF RESIDENCES AND THE GATES.

[03:20:04]

MAYOR COUNCIL, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE ITEM SIX B, OTHERWISE REFERRED TO AS ORDINANCE NUMBER 480-810.

ZI-A 23. DASH 0072.

SECOND READING. ZONING CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE OVERLOOK AND WILLOW TREE GARDENS FOR PROPERTY DESCRIBED AS TRACTS THREE C AND PORTIONS OF TRACKS THREE, D03 AND 3D03A WW HALL SURVEY ABSTRACT 695, CITY OF SOUTHLAKE, TARRANT COUNTY, TEXAS AND LOCATED AT 240 NORTH CARROLL AVENUE, SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.

SUBJECT TO THE STAFF REPORT DATED MAY 14TH, 2024 AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW SUMMARY NUMBER FOUR DATED APRIL 9TH, 2024.

NOTING THAT WE'RE APPROVING A ZONING CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE OVERLOOK AND WILLOW TREE GARDENS REQUESTING CHANGE ZONING, OR THAT WE ARE APPROVING A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM AG AGRICULTURAL TO SF ONE, A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS 22D TRANSITION ZONING DISTRICT.

SO FROM AG AND SF ONE A TO D TRANSITION ZONING DISTRICT, SUBJECT TO THE STAFF REPORT DATED APRIL 30TH OF 2024 AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN REVIEW NUMBER FOUR DATED APRIL 9TH, 2024, NOTING THAT WE'RE APPROVING THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN D WITH THE FOLLOWING CHANGES.

APPLICANT HAS AGREED THERE WILL BE NO MORE THAN A TOTAL OF 20 RESIDENCES IN THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION.

AND THAT IS THAT IS A THE TOTAL PROPERTY BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE GATES AND INCLUDING THE CROSS LANE PROPERTIES.

ALSO NOTING THAT THE APPLICANT HAS AGREED THAT THERE WILL BE RESIDENT ONLY GATE ACCESS ON BOTH THE EAST AND WEST ENTRY POINTS TO THE RESIDENTIAL AREA.

AND THAT THE APPLICANT WILL WORK WITH STAFF TO IDENTIFY APPROPRIATE TECHNOLOGY.

YEAH. IN SPECIFICALLY NOT KEYPAD TECHNOLOGY ON THESE GATES, BUT TO MINIMIZE ANY ABILITY TO CIRCUMVENT THOSE ACCESS RESTRICTIONS TO RESIDENTS ONLY. SO THAT'S WHERE I'M AT NOW.

IS IT YOUR INTENT THAT THE WESTERNMOST LOTS THAT THERE REMAIN THE FIVE LOTS AND HAVE A LARGER CONFIGURATION? ARE YOU WILLING TO SPREAD THE 20 OVER THE ENTIRE AREA? WELL, THAT'S UP TO NO.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY.

I THINK YOU NEED TO ADD THAT THE THE FIVE OUTSIDE THE GATE NEED TO BE AT LEAST AS LARGE AS CURRENTLY PROPOSED.

WELL, AND THAT'S NOTED ALREADY THAT IT IS IT IS APPROVED PER EXHIBIT D WITH THE CHANGES OF NO MORE THAN 20 RESIDENTS. BUT SO BUT JUST TO BE VERY SPECIFIC, THE FIVE REPRESENTED WEST OFF OF CROSS MUST BE AT LEAST THE SIZE REPRESENTED THIS EVENING.

THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. YEAH.

WHAT ABOUT WALLS? FENCES? OR WERE WE AT ON THAT? THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY IS IT'S NOT ON THAT FENCING AND ENTRY PLAN DOWN THERE, THAT THERE IS A WALL BETWEEN THE FIVE LOTS THAT THERE SHOULD BE.

WE JUST NEED TO DELINEATE THAT. THERE WILL BE A MASONRY WALL BETWEEN THE FIVE LOTS ON CROSS AND THE THE GATED, THE GATED COMMUNITY WHICH HE SAID IS PLANNED.

IT'S JUST NOT ON THERE. OKAY, SO NO NOTING.

AS COUNCIL MEMBER ROBBINS SAID, FULL MASONRY WALL FROM NORTH TO SOUTH, COVERING THE WESTERN EDGE OR THE WESTERN DIVIDER OF THE PROPERTY BETWEEN THE GATED AREA AND CROSS.

ANYTHING ELSE. MR. TAYLOR, DO YOU SEE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THAT OR ANY ISSUES THAT WE'RE FORGETTING? I THINK YOU'VE GOT I THINK YOU'VE GOT IT ADDRESSED, SUBJECT TO ALSO THE FACT THAT THE APPLICANT WILL BE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A SITE PLAN ON FINAL LAYOUT FOR REVIEW OR DESIGN EVALUATION BY COUNCIL OR STAFF.

STAFF WILL GET IT FIRST, THEN COME TO COUNCIL.

COUNCIL FOR FINAL REVIEW.

OKAY, SO AMEND COULD YOU REPEAT THAT? SITE PLAN WOULD COME TO COUNCIL.

SITE PLAN WOULD COME TO COUNCIL.

DEFER TO YOU ON THIS, ALAN.

A TYPICAL PROCESS FOR A SITE PLAN UNDER OUR ZONING WOULD GO TO PNC FOR RECOMMENDATION AND COUNSEL FOR.

GIVEN THIS IS A CONDITION OF THIS ZONING, COULD THEY JUST SPECIFY FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION? THEY COULD, YOU COULD YOU COULD SPECIFY THAT IN THIS INSTANCE THAT THE SITE PLAN COMES ONLY TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR REVIEW AND THE REVIEW WILL BE FOR DESIGN PURPOSES, WILL NOT BE REEVALUATING LAND USE, NUMBER OF LOTS OR ANYTHING ELSE JUST TO SEE THE LOCATION OF THE LOTS AND THE ACCESS POINTS.

MAKE SURE IT'S COMPLIANT WITH THE ZONING CHANGE.

YES SIR. AND WE WILL BE DRAFTING THE NEW ORDINANCE OBVIOUSLY TO CONFORM TO THIS.

SO YOU WON'T SIGN THIS ONE TONIGHT.

OKAY. SO NOTING THAT AMENDMENT TO THE TO THE MOTION, THAT SITE PLAN WILL COME DIRECTLY TO COUNCIL FOR CONSIDERATION OF LOCATION ACCESS POINTS AND

[03:25:10]

ALL RIGHT. I THINK WE HAVE A MOTION.

DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. ALL RIGHT.

WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. CAST YOUR VOTES.

AND THIS IS A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM SIX B.

AND THAT MOTION CARRIES 6 TO 1.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR BEING HERE TONIGHT.

I KNOW WE HAVE A COUPLE MORE ITEMS TO TAKE.

DOES ANYONE NEED A BREAK BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO SEVEN A AND SEVEN B? SO. ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT IT.

OKAY. MOVE THAT ALONG.

LET'S DO WE'LL CALL SEVEN A THE LAMBERT HOME HEADQUARTERS, AND THEN WE'LL TAKE SEVEN B THE MUNICIPAL SERVICE CENTER.

THINKING AHEAD, DOES ANYONE REALLY HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH FIRST READING ON THE MUNICIPAL SERVICE CENTER? SO WE'LL PROBABLY WHEN WE GET TO SEVEN B, WE'LL PROBABLY.

JUST SKIP IT OR WE'LL NOT SKIP IT.

WE'LL DO A QUICK MOTION TO APPROVE ON FIRST READING 7B7B THE MUNICIPAL SERVICE CENTER.

BUT LET'S GO AHEAD AND DO SEVEN A.

[7.A. Ordinance No. 480-814, ZA24-0009, 1st Reading, Zoning Change and Site Plan for Lambert Home Headquarters, on property described as Tract 6C, Thomas M. Hood Survey Abstract 705, and Lot 31, Block 1, Parkway Office Center Addition, an addition to the City of Southlake, Tarrant County, Texas, and located at 1700 N. White Chapel Blvd. and 190 W. SH 114, Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: "S-P-1" Detailed Site Plan District. Requested Zoning: "S-P-2" Generalized Site Plan District. SPIN Neighborhood #3. ]

THANK YOU MAYOR. CITY COUNCIL, THIS IS A ZONING CHANGE REQUEST AND SITE PLAN FOR LAMBERT HOMES.

IT IS LOCATED AT 1700 NORTH WHITE CHAPEL BOULEVARD AND 190 WEST STATE HIGHWAY 114.

THIS IS BASICALLY LOOPS AROUND THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF STATE HIGHWAY 114 AND NORTH WHITE CHAPEL BOULEVARD.

THE ZONING CHANGE REQUEST IS TO CHANGE ZONING FROM SP ONE DETAILED SITE PLAN DISTRICT TO SP TWO GENERALIZED SITE PLAN DISTRICT TO INCLUDE LIMITED C2C3 USES THIS IS A AERIAL PHOTO OF THE SITE WITH THE PROPERTY INVOLVED HIGHLIGHTED IN BLUE.

THE CURRENT ZONING ON THE PROPERTY IS AS MENTIONED IS SP ONE.

THEY'RE REQUESTING TO CHANGE THIS TO AN SP TWO GENERAL SITE PLAN DISTRICT.

THE LAND USE PLAN.

DESIGNATES THIS AREA ON ON AS MIXED USE.

AND THERE ARE SEVERAL RECOMMENDATIONS INCLUDED IN THE LAND USE PLAN THAT COVER THIS GEOGRAPHIC AREA.

ALONG THE 114 FRONTAGE BOUNDED BY NORTH WHITE CHAPEL AND EAST OR WEST DOVE.

PRIMARILY THE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT PERTAIN SPECIFICALLY TO THIS SITE ARE RELATED TO ENCOURAGING CROSS CONNECTIVITY AND ACCESS ONTO THE 114 FRONTAGE ROAD AS THIS AREA DEVELOPS, AND THEN HOW DEVELOPMENT ON 114 SURFACE PARKING AND DESIGNING THAT TO WHERE IT HAS MINIMAL VISIBLE VISUAL IMPACT ON ON THE 114 VIEW.

THIS IS A CURRENTLY APPROVED SITE PLAN WITH A RENDERING.

IT INCLUDED TWO EXISTING BUILDINGS ON THE THE WEST SIDE OF THE PROPERTY THAT ARE TO REMAIN, AND THEN A NEW FOUR STORY BUILDING WITH A ABOUT A THIRD OF THAT BUILDING CONTAINING UNDER BUILDING PARKING.

THIS WAS FOR PRIMARILY OFFICE USE.

THIS PLAN HAS HAS NOT BEEN CONSTRUCTED.

AND THIS IS A PROPOSAL TO REDESIGN AND AND ALTER THE USE OF THAT AREA.

THE THE PROPOSED SP TWO ZONING WOULD CONTINUE TO, TO HAVE THE EXISTING BUILDINGS REMAIN IN PLACE AND WOULD PROPOSE A 10,500 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL OFFICE BUILDING LOCATED HERE, AND THEN HAVE A FUTURE 2800 SQUARE FOOT OR APPROXIMATELY 3000 SQUARE FOOT, ONE STORY FUTURE RETAIL BUILDING ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THAT.

SITE. ACCESS TO THE SITE WOULD BE OFF OF NORTH WHITE CHAPEL AND NEW DRIVE CUT PROPOSED THERE, AND THEN WOULD UTILIZE TWO EXISTING DRIVE CUTS ON THE 114 FRONTAGE.

THE DRIVEWAYS ARE BEING DESIGNED SUCH THAT COMMON ACCESS WOULD BE PROVIDED AND WOULD AFFORD THE ABILITY FOR A FUTURE

[03:30:08]

THAT ACCESS EASEMENT WOULD ALSO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ACCESS BETWEEN THE TWO PROPERTIES AND ACCESS BACK TO THE 114 FRONTAGE ROAD.

THIS IS JUST SLIGHTLY LARGER DETAIL OF THAT.

THIS BEING ONLY CONCEPT PLANNED.

THE FUTURE PHASE TWO BUILDING.

PRIOR TO BUILDING PERMIT, THEY WOULD BE REQUIRED, IF APPROVED, TO BRING BACK A SITE PLAN SPECIFIC FOR THAT BUILDING PRIOR TO CONSTRUCTION.

AND JUST AS AN EXPLANATION THAT IS PRIMARY REASON FOR THE CHANGE OF ZONING FROM THE SP TWO OR SP ONE DETAILED SITE PLAN DISTRICT TO THE SP TWO GENERALIZED SITE PLAN DISTRICT, BECAUSE OF PORTION OF THIS ONLY BEING CONCEPTUALLY.

REPRESENTED. THESE ARE THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS.

AND IT WILL PRIMARILY FOLLOW THE C-2 REGULATIONS.

PARKING WOULD BE AT A FLAT ONE PARKING SPACE PER 200FT² OVER THE ENTIRE SITE.

THEY ARE ASKING FOR VARIANCES TO ALLOW THE TWO DRIVEWAYS ON 114 TO REMAIN INTACT AND THEN STACKING DEPTH FOR THOSE DRIVEWAYS AS WELL.

THESE DRIVEWAYS AND PARKING AREAS ARE EXISTING ALONG WITH THE EXISTING OFFICE SITE, AND THEY DO NOT WISH TO DISTURB THOSE, KEEP THEM INTACT.

THESE ARE THE USES PROPOSED.

IT WILL PERMIT ALL OH ONE OFFICE USES.

AND THEY WISH TO ADD THESE PRIMARILY SEE TWO USES.

THERE ARE A FEW USES.

COMMERCIAL ART GALLERY HARDWARE, PAPER, PAINT, WALLPAPER STORES WHICH ARE GENERALLY DESCRIBED IN C THREE. AND THESE COMPONENTS, THESE C THREE COMPONENTS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED ARE PRIMARILY INTENDED TO TO SUPPORT THE INTERIOR HOME DESIGN, WHICH IS THE PRIMARY USE OF THE 10,500 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING.

IT WOULD ALSO INCLUDE PERMITTED USES FOR JEWELRY STORES, LEATHER AND LEATHER GOODS SHOPS MUSIC AND DRAMA SCHOOLS, RESTAURANT, TEA ROOM, CAFETERIA WITH NO DRIVE THROUGH BEING PERMITTED, AND IN THE EXISTING TWO OFFICE BUILDINGS, THEY THEY WOULD LIKE TO SEE TWO USE OF SMALL ANIMAL HOSPITAL AS WELL AS HEALTH SERVICES, WHICH IS GENERALLY FALLS UNDER MORE CLINIC RELATED USES WHICH WOULD INCLUDE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AUDIO THERAPY, AND THEN GENERAL VARIETY STORES.

THIS IS THE RENDERING OF THEIR PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN.

IN AN ATTEMPT TO ADDRESS THE LAND USE PLAN RECOMMENDATIONS.

PARKING IS DESIGNED TO WHERE IT'S NOT DIRECTLY ON TO 114, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE EXISTING PARKING THAT THAT'S ALREADY IN PLACE FOR THE TWO OFFICE BUILDINGS ON THE ON THE WEST.

THIS IS ELEVATION OF THE PRIMARY HOME.

DESIGN BUILDING.

HOME INTERIOR DESIGN.

BUILDING. AND A RENDERING OF THAT.

WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY LETTERS.

WITHIN THE NOTIFICATION AREA OR OUTSIDE OF IT FOR THAT MATTER.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION.

THEY APPROVED THIS SIX ZERO.

WITH CONDITION.

INITIALLY, WHAT WAS PRESENTED TO COUNCIL WAS ALL C-2 USES ARE TO THE COMMISSION WAS ALL TO C-2 USES.

THEIR MOTION SPECIFICALLY INDICATED THEY WANTED IT WANTED ELIMINATION OF LAUNDROMAT AND DAYCARE, AND ENCOURAGED THEM TO AGGRESSIVELY GO THROUGH THE LIST OF PERMITTED USES IN THAT DISTRICT AND ELIMINATE ANY THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL PRACTICAL IN THAT

[03:35:08]

A VERY LIMITED SET OF THE C-2 USES, ALONG WITH SOME OF THE USES THAT ROLL OVER TO MORE OF A C-3 USE.

THEY ALSO RECOMMENDED THAT THE APPLICANT PROVIDE TO FOR THE CITY COUNCIL AN EXHIBIT THAT SHOWS SOME OF THE DEVELOPMENT THAT IS OR COULD OCCUR AROUND IT, WHICH NEXT SLIDE, I'VE GOT THE EXHIBIT THAT THEY PROVIDED AND THAT EXHIBIT WAS ALSO INCLUDED IN YOUR PACKET.

THIS IS THE PARTICULAR EXHIBIT THAT SHOWS THE CAROLINE DEVELOPMENT TO THE EAST AS IT'S CURRENTLY CONFIGURED.

THE METAIRIE SUBDIVISION TO THE NORTH.

AND THIS IS NOT AN APPROVED PLAN ABUTTING THEIR NORTH BOUNDARY, BUT THIS IS A PLAN THAT WAS PRESENTED TO THE CORRIDOR COMMITTEE A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO FOR THE SHIVERS PROPERTY.

AND IT'S JUST INTENDED TO KIND OF SHOW HOW HOW THESE DEVELOPMENTS WOULD FIT TOGETHER.

IDENTIFYING COMMON ACCESS BETWEEN THE TWO DEVELOPMENTS.
