[1. Call to Order.]

[00:00:03]

GOOD EVENING EVERYONE.

IT'S 6:30 P.M.

ON THE DOT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE TO WAIT FOR OUR MEETING TO START.

IT'S THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING.

CITY OF SOUTHLAKE. MY NAME IS DAN KUBIAK.

I'M THE CHAIRMAN OF THAT COMMISSION.

WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE YOU TONIGHT, AND WE'LL HOPEFULLY WORK THROUGH A FAIRLY SHORTENED AGENDA FAIRLY EXPEDITIOUSLY.

IT'S OCTOBER 17TH, 2024.

I KNOW THAT DATE VERY WELL.

IT'S MY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY DATE.

SO MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO MY WIFE.

THANK YOU FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME.

AND LET THIS SHOW THAT WE, YOU KNOW, THROUGH ANNIVERSARIES AND BIRTHDAYS, WE ALL SHOW UP FOR THIS FUN MEETING AND DO OUR PUBLIC SERVICE.

SO WITH THAT, THOUGH, WE ARE TRYING TO RUN A PRETTY SHORT MEETING TONIGHT SO I CAN GET OUT OF HERE.

STAY OUT OF TROUBLE. WE'LL WORK THROUGH OUR AGENDA IN THE ORDER SHOWN HERE.

[3. Administrative Comments.]

THE ONLY THING THAT I WANT TO MENTION IS THAT THERE IS A CORRIDOR PLANNING COMMITTEE MEETING ON NOVEMBER 13TH.

NOVEMBER 13TH CORRIDOR PLANNING COMMITTEE MEETING AND FOR EVERYBODY WHO IS NOT FAMILIAR WITH THAT, IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO PREVIEW A VERY, VERY FRONT END OF OUR DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, SOME POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS WHERE IDEAS ARE THROWN OUT BY APPLICANTS, AND A CROSS-SECTION OF CITY VOLUNTEERS KIND OF GIVE THEM FEEDBACK IN TERMS OF EARLY PRELIMINARY THOUGHTS.

THERE'S NOT A PUBLIC HEARING IN THAT, BUT OTHERWISE YOU CAN USUALLY CATCH THE APPLICANTS.

AFTERWARDS YOU CAN SUBMIT WRITTEN COMMENTS, GET COPIES OF THEIR PLANS, ETC.

SO IT'S A GOOD FRONT END PART OF THE PROCESS VERY, VERY EARLY ON TO KIND OF SEE WHAT MIGHT BE COMING DOWN THE ROAD.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

NO CHAIRMAN COMMENTS TONIGHT.

THAT'S ITEM NUMBER FOUR.

[CONSENT AGENDA]

ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ON THOSE MINUTES BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION? MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION.

WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER FIVE ON THE AGENDA.

A MOTION TO WAIVE A SECOND.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO AND VOTE, PLEASE.

AND PASSES SIX TO 1 OR 6 ZERO WITH ONE ABSTENTION.

[Items 6 & 7]

IT'S THE ONE OF THE CASES WE HAVE PREVIOUSLY ZONING CHANGE AND SITE PLAN FOR THE FOREFRONT SENIOR LIVING PROPERTY BEING TABLED TO NOVEMBER 7TH, AS WELL AS A ZONING CHANGE IN SITE PLAN FOR THE ELMORE BY MARRIOTT, CURRENTLY KNOWN AS THE SOUTHLAKE HOTEL.

SO IF YOU'RE HERE FOR EITHER OF THOSE ITEMS, THEY'RE GETTING TABLED THIS EVENING.

SO ANY QUESTIONS COMMENTS ON THAT BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THE REQUEST TO TABLE ITEMS SIX AND SEVEN ON OUR AGENDA.

OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. AND WE NEED A DATE SPECIFIC ON THAT OR ARE WE GOOD.

I GUESS WE'VE GOT IT WRITTEN IN THE AGENDA.

OKAY. PERFECT.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO AND VOTE, PLEASE.

PASSES SIX ZERO.

NOT SUPER GREAT AT COUNTING.

HOW DID I NOT GET COUNTED THERE? I SUPPORT THE ITEM AS WELL VERBALLY, SO PLEASE COUNT THAT AS A70 VOTE.

DULY NOTED. FOR THE RECORD, IF THAT'S OKAY.

I DON'T KNOW WHY IT DIDN'T SHOW UP.

WHERE ARE WE? MAYBE WE'RE REDOING THE.

THINK WE'RE REDOING THE VOTE.

OR MAYBE. YEAH. LET'S GO AHEAD AND REDO THE VOTE HERE.

JUST RECAST IT.

SO PRESS YOUR BUTTON IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.

DOCTOR SPRINGER WAITING ON YOU TO.

THERE WE GO. WE HAVE SEVEN ZERO.

THANK YOU. YEAH. THAT'S RIGHT.

THIS. I KNOW THIS SHOULD NOT BE THAT HARD.

IT'S LIKE A ROOKIE MEETING HERE.

OKAY, WE'LL MOVE INTO OUR REGULAR AGENDA.

TWO ITEMS ON THAT AGENDA.

[8. Consider: ZA24-0036, Site Plan for Well Billion Place on property described as Lot 7R, Block A, Southlake Bank Place, and located at 3313 E. State Highway 114, Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “C-3” General Commercial District. SPIN Neighborhood #8. PUBLIC HEARING]

AND JUST IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR, WE ACTUALLY HEARD THIS CASE IN SOME DETAIL WITHIN OUR WORK SESSION PRIOR TO THIS MEETING, SO MAYBE I'D JUST ASK STAFF THEY WOULDN'T MIND JUST TO KIND OF HIT THE HIGH POINTS ON THIS ONE.

AND THEN WE CAN WEIGH IN WITH QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU. YES. YEAH.

ZA 24 0036 IS A REQUEST FOR A SITE PLAN FOR APPROXIMATELY 6000 SQUARE FOOT, MULTI-TENANT COMMERCIAL BUILDING AT 3313 EAST STATE HIGHWAY 114. THIS IS AN AERIAL VIEW SHOWING THE PROPERTY.

LAND USE IS RETAIL. COMMERCIAL ZONING IS C3 GENERAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.

THIS IS THE EXISTING APPROVED SITE PLAN.

THIS WAS AN UPDATE.

AND THEN THIS IS THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN.

THIS IS THE BUILDING THAT THEY'RE WANTING TO ADD HERE.

THIS IS AN EXISTING BUILDING.

ALL THE PARKING AND PAVING IS ALREADY EXISTING.

THIS IS THEIR PROPOSED LANDSCAPE PLAN.

THE ELEVATIONS.

AND WE HAVE SOME SITE PHOTOS HERE.

AND WE HAVE RECEIVED NO SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNER RESPONSES.

OKAY. AND THEN JUST CONFIRMING.

[00:05:02]

SO IT MEETS CITY ORDINANCE IN TERMS OF THINGS LIKE PARKING ETCETERA.

OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF ON THIS ONE? ALL RIGHT. DO WE HAVE THE APPLICANT ON THIS ONE? WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME FORWARD JUST REAL QUICK SINCE YOU'RE HERE? NAME AND ADDRESS, FOR THE RECORD.

AND MAYBE JUST A QUICK EXPLANATION AS TO THE REQUEST.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

MY NAME IS JUAN VASQUEZ WITH VASQUEZ ENGINEERING, 1919 SOUTH SHILOH ROAD, GARLAND, TEXAS, 75042.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

THIS THIS THIS EVENING.

AS STAFF HAS STATED, OUR CLIENT IS LOOKING AT FILLING IN THE REST OF THEIR PROPERTY THERE.

THE CURRENT OWNERS OF THE RESTAURANT THAT'S TO THE NORTH OF THE SITE, DESPITE JUST COMING IN WITH A 6000 SQUARE FOOT SHELL BUILDING WITH MULTI-TENANT.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE STILL WORKING ON THEIR LEASES.

JUST MOVING THROUGH THE PROCESS RIGHT NOW.

BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? YEAH. AND I GUESS I'M GLAD IT'S PART TO THE CITY ORDINANCE.

THAT WAS MY PRIMARY CONCERN, I GUESS IF AND WHEN TO THE POINT WHERE THE IMPROVEMENTS FINISHED AND, YOU KNOW, ALL THE BUILDINGS ON THE SITE ARE OCCUPIED.

JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'VE GOT THAT HANDLED AS WELL AS POSSIBLE.

SO. OKAY.

WELL, IF THERE'S NO QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS, FEEL FREE TO TAKE A SEAT.

AGAIN, THANK YOU TO LET YOU KNOW IF WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

ITEM NUMBER EIGHT ON OUR AGENDA THIS EVENING DOES REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING.

ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT ON THIS ITEM IS WELCOME TO COME FORWARD AND ASK OR COMMENT.

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

ANY MORE QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS BEFORE WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION.

WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER EIGHT ON THE AGENDA.

ZA 24-0036, SUBJECT TO OUR STAFF REPORT DATED OCTOBER 11TH, 2024 AND ALSO SUBJECT TO OUR SITE PLAN REVIEW SUMMARY NUMBER THREE DATED OCTOBER 11TH, 2024.

OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND. ALL RIGHT.

VOTE PLEASE. AND PASSES SEVEN ZERO.

CONGRATULATIONS AND GOOD LUCK AT THE NEXT.

IF YOU MAKE THE NEXT CITY COUNCIL MEETING, WHICH WILL BE ON NOVEMBER 5TH, ELECTION DAY.

WOW. WELL, YEAH, THAT'S AN INTERESTING DATE.

SO. OKAY. WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR.

LAST ITEM ON OUR AGENDA THIS EVENING IS ITEM NUMBER NINE, WHICH IS THE SITE PLAN FOR LOT ONE, BLOCK ONE, MUSTANG BUSINESS PARK.

[9. Consider: ZA24-0060, Site Plan for Lot 1, Block 1, Mustang Business Park, and located at 1825 Mustang Ct., Southlake, Texas. Current Zoning: “1-1” Light Industrial District. SPIN Neighborhood #8. PUBLIC HEARING]

SO I GUESS I'D ASK STAFF ON THIS ONE AS WELL JUST TO KIND OF HIT THE HIGH POINTS, PLEASE.

SURE. SURE. YES.

THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF A SITE PLAN TO BUILD AN APPROXIMATELY 2970 SQUARE FOOT FENCE STORAGE AREA FOR CONSOLIDATED ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTORS.

THE BUILDING IS LOCATED AT 1825 MUSTANG COURT.

THIS IS AN AERIAL VIEW OF THE PROPERTY.

FUTURE LAND USE IS INDUSTRIAL.

THE CURRENT ZONING IS I-1 LIGHT INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT.

THIS IS THE APPROVED SITE PLAN FROM 2022.

AND THIS IS THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN.

AND JUST SHOWING THE TWO TOGETHER.

THIS IS THE BUILDING HERE.

JUST SHOWING UP, BLOWN UP A LITTLE BIT, AND THEN THE OUTSIDE STORAGE IS GOING TO BE LOCATED HERE.

AND THESE ARE THE DIMENSIONS SHOWN HERE.

THIS IS GENERALLY WHAT THE FENCING WILL LOOK LIKE.

AND THEN WE JUST HAVE SOME SITE PHOTOS.

SO THE OUTSIDE STORAGE WOULD BE IN THIS GENERAL AREA.

AGAIN RIGHT HERE.

AND THEN THIS IS JUST A PHOTO FROM THE RESIDENTIAL AREA LOOKING TOWARD THE PROPERTY.

SO THE OUTSIDE STORAGE WOULD BE BEYOND THIS FENCE HERE.

OKAY. SO BEHIND THE FENCE.

YES. OKAY. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNER RESPONSES, AND I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

OKAY. YEAH. AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT, IF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL SITE PLAN, WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A VARIANCE OR ANYTHING.

IT'S KIND OF THOUGHT OF WITHIN OUR ORDINANCE.

CORRECT. IT'S JUST THAT IT HAPPENS TO BE AFTER THE SITE PLAN APPROVAL THAT WE HAVE TO KIND OF COME BACK AND ANY OUTSIDE STORAGE NEEDS TO BE ON AN APPROVED SITE PLAN.

AND AGAIN, KIND OF SHIELDED FROM BOTH THE NEIGHBORHOOD VIA THE FENCE, ETCETERA.

AND THEN THE KIND OF HIGHWAY 26.

SO IT APPEARS TO BE LIMITED VISIBILITY I GUESS.

YES. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU.

CAN THEY MOVE THAT WITHOUT COMING BACK THROUGH HERE TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION? NO. OKAY.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY. THANK YOU.

IS THE APPLICANT HERE? WOULD YOU MIND COMING UP TO THE MICROPHONE JUST REALLY QUICKLY? NAME AND ADDRESS AND JUST ANY OTHER QUICK COMMENTS YOU MIGHT HAVE?

[00:10:02]

GOOD EVENING AND HAPPY ANNIVERSARY.

TURNER COOK, 6038 GOLIAD AVENUE, DALLAS, TEXAS, 75206.

I'M WITH BROOKFIELD PROPERTIES, WHICH IS ACTUALLY THE TENANT ON A 99 YEAR LAND LEASE.

AND THEN OUR SUB TENANT WOULD BE CED CONSOLIDATED ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTORS.

THEY NEED TO UTILIZE THIS OUTSIDE STORAGE FOR THEIR RIGID ELECTRICAL CONDUIT AS WELL AS PVC CONDUIT.

IT COMES IN STANDARD LENGTHS OF TEN AND 20FT.

OUR STANDARD DOCK DOORS ARE NINE FEET WIDE.

SO THERE'S A SAFETY CONCERN.

IT'S ALMOST LIKE A PUPPY TRYING TO CARRY A STICK THROUGH A DOGGY DOOR.

SO THAT'S WHY THEY'VE REQUESTED THIS OUTSIDE STORAGE.

AS YOU'VE MENTIONED, IT IS SHIELDED FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND IT'S TUCKED AWAY BEHIND THE TWO BUMP OUTS THERE AT THE BUILDING, WHICH ALSO SERVE AND ARE PURPOSEFUL FOR SHIELDING TRUCK TRAFFIC AND GENERAL DESIGN OF KIND OF HIDING THE ACTIVITY BACK THERE.

WE PURPOSELY HAD IT ABOUT THE SAME DEPTH AS THE BUMP OUT IN THE RAMP IN COORDINATION WITH CED.

WE ALSO HAVE RYAN HERE, WHO'S THE GENERAL MANAGER FOR CED, AND EITHER ONE OF US WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS.

OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT? I'M JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY, HOW WELL LEASED IS THE PROJECT? ALL THREE BUILDINGS.

WE'RE ACTUALLY VERY EXCITED BECAUSE THIS WOULD BE OUR FIRST LEASE, AND THIS IS THE LAST PENDING ITEM TO GET OUR FIRST LEASE INKED.

COOL. CONGRATS.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. I APPRECIATE YOU SHOWING UP TONIGHT.

WE'LL CALL YOU BACK UP IF THERE'S ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

COMMENTS? ITEM NUMBER NINE ON OUR AGENDA DOES CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING.

ANYONE LIKE TO COME FORWARD AND COMMENT ON THIS ITEM IS WELCOME TO DO SO NOW.

OTHERWISE, I WILL GO AHEAD AND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

I GUESS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS COMMENTS ON THIS ONE? WE ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE ITEM NUMBER NINE ON OUR AGENDA.

ZA 24-0060.

SUBJECT TO OUR STAFF REPORT DATED OCTOBER 11TH, 2024.

OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION. WE HAVE A SECOND.

SECOND. ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO AND VOTE, PLEASE.

I THINK I GOT MINE REGISTERED THIS TIME AND PASSES SEVEN ZERO.

CONGRATULATIONS AND GOOD LUCK.

ASSUMING YOU MAKE THAT NEXT CITY COUNCIL MEETING ON ELECTION NIGHT.

THAT OUGHT TO MAKE IT FOR A VERY EXCITING EVENING.

SO. OKAY WITH THAT, I GUESS AT 6:42 P.M., WE ARE ADJOURNED.
