CASE NUMBER ZA 24-0051.

FIRST READING, ZONING CHANGE AND SITE PLAN AND A ZONING CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR FOREFRONT SENIOR LIVING DIRECTOR KILLOUGH.

THANK YOU. MAYOR. CITY COUNCIL.

AS YOU SAID, THIS IS A PROPOSAL TO CHANGE ZONING ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 303684 DAVIS BOULEVARD.

THE REQUEST IS TWO DISTRICTS BEING REQUESTED HERE A CHANGE FROM PROPERTY CURRENTLY ZONED RESIDENTIAL ESTATE AND SF ONE A SINGLE FAMILY TO SP1 DETAILED SITE PLAN DISTRICT AND TRANSITION DISTRICT.

THIS IS AN AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH OF THE PROPERTY.

THE CURRENT LAND USE DESIGNATION ON THE PROPERTY IS MIXED USE AND 100 YEAR FLOODPLAIN.

AND THESE ARE SOME SITE SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY.

STARTING WITH, IF POSSIBLE, PROPERTIES SHOULD BE MASTER PLANNED AND DEVELOPED IN A COORDINATED MANNER.

VEHICLE CROSS ACCESS TO ADJACENT PROPERTIES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED OR REQUIRED AS DEVELOPMENT OCCURS.

COMMERCIAL DRIVES DIRECTLY ONTO DAVIS BOULEVARD SHOULD BE LIMITED AND SHARING DRIVE ACCESS BETWEEN PROPERTIES SHOULD BE CONSIDERED.

MEDIANS WILL BE INSTALLED ALONG DAVIS IN THE FUTURE, AND FROM SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD TO SOUTH TO CONTINENTAL, AND HOW DRIVEWAYS ARE ORIENTED SHOULD CONSIDER WHERE THOSE MEDIANS MEETING OPENINGS WOULD BE.

DESIGN A PROPERTY SHOULD BE CONDUCTED IN A MANNER THAT PRESERVES OR EVEN HIGHLIGHTS THE CREEK AREA.

TRAILS SHOULD BE CONSTRUCTED MASTER PLANNED ALONG THE CREEK AREA, AND AS DEVELOPMENT OCCURS, IT SHOULD BE EVALUATED FOR POSSIBILITIES OF PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIVITY ACROSS THE CREEK.

SKELETAL DEVELOPMENT IS INTENDED TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA AND USES USES SUCH AS LOW PROFILE OFFICE HEALTH OR OTHER IDENTIFIED TARGET.

TARGETED RETAIL AND RESTAURANT USES IDENTIFIED BY OUR ECONOMIC THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN SHOULD BE ENCOURAGED AND THEN BUILDING LOCATION ON THE PROPERTY SHOULD BE LOCATED NEAR THE FRONT BUILDING LINE, WITH PARKING MOSTLY ORIENTED BEHIND THE BUILDINGS.

THIS IS THE CURRENT ZONING ON THE PROPERTY.

AS I MENTIONED, IT'S A RESIDENTIAL ESTATE ON THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE PROPERTY IN SF-1 ON ONE OF THE SOUTHERN TRACKS.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN THAT WAS PRESENTED TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AT THEIR SEPTEMBER 19TH MEETING.

FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE ITEM, THE APPLICANT TABLED THIS ITEM AND WENT BACK TO WORK WITH SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS TO MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS.

AND THIS IS THE REVISED DEVELOPMENT PLAN THAT WAS CONSIDERED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AT THEIR NOVEMBER 7TH MEETING.

AND WHAT IS BEING PRESENTED TO YOU HERE THIS EVENING? CHANGES THAT OCCURRED HERE.

THE SINGLE FAMILY TYPE COTTAGE UNITS WERE REORIENTED TO PLACE SOME OF THOSE ON THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE CONGREGATE SENIOR LIVING STRUCTURE.

THE HEIGHT OF PORTIONS OF THE STRUCTURE WERE LOWERED AND STRUCTURE WAS SPREAD OUT TO MAINTAIN THE UNIT COUNT THAT WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED THAT THAT IS 190 UNITS ON THE SP1 PORTION OF THE REQUEST WHICH IS IN THIS AREA.

AS YOU FOLLOW MY CURSOR AND 20 UNITS ON THIS PORTION OF THE REQUEST, WHICH IS THE TZD REQUESTS BEFORE YOU. THE TOTAL UNIT COUNT IS 210 UNITS, AND ON THE OVERALL DENSITY, THAT'S APPROXIMATELY TEN DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE. NOW, THIS IS A COMPARISON OF THE PLANS AS THEY EVOLVED FOLLOWING THE INITIAL PUBLIC HEARING AT

[00:40:08]

PNC. AND THESE ARE EXAMPLES OF SOME OF THE STRUCTURE TYPES.

THIS WOULD BE IN THE SINGLE FAMILY COTTAGE PORTION ZONED UNDER THE TZD DISTRICT.

ONCE AGAIN ORIGINAL PLAN.

THIS IS FOR THE TRANSITION OR THE SP1 DISTRICT AND HOW THAT EVOLVED TO THE REVISED PLAN.

AND THIS IS A DATA SUMMARY ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE FOR THE SP1 DISTRICT.

THIS IS THE OVERALL LANDSCAPE PLAN UNDER THE MODIFIED PLAN.

AND THE TREE CONSERVATION PLAN UNDER THE MODIFIED PLAN, BASED ON A STANDARD ZONING DISTRICT PROPERTY CURRENTLY HAS 47 PLUS OR MINUS PERCENT COVERAGE OF TREES AND UNDER A STANDARD ZONING DISTRICT REQUEST, THE MINIMUM PRESERVATION WOULD BE SET AT A MINIMUM OF 50% OF THAT TO BE PRESERVED.

THEIR PROPOSAL IS AT APPROXIMATELY 51%.

THIS IS THE FENCING PLAN.

ALONG THE PERIMETERS AND MAJORITY OF THE DAVIS BOULEVARD FRONTAGE, IT WOULD BE OPEN METAL ORNAMENTAL METAL FENCING WITH STONE COLUMNS.

THE COTTAGE UNITS WOULD HAVE A STONE SIX FOOT STONE WALL, AND THEN ALONG THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY WOULD BE EIGHT FOOT BOARD ON FOOT, OR EIGHT FOOT AND SIX FOOT BOARD ON BOARD.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ELEVATIONS OF THE CONGREGATE SENIOR LIVING UNIT.

AND THIS IS A REVISED RENDERING OF THAT SHOWING HOW A PORTION OF THAT WAS LOWERED.

THE REAR PORTION OF THE BUILDING ALSO LOWERED BY A FLOOR ON A PORTION OF THAT.

AND THIS WOULD BE EAST ELEVATION VIEW.

UP IS THE UPPER VIEW AS THE ORIGINAL ELEVATION.

LOWER IS THE REVISED ELEVATION.

ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE OF THE EASTERN ELEVATION.

AND THIS IS REVISED WESTERN ELEVATION.

THESE ARE SOME SIGHTLINE ANALYSES THAT THE APPLICANT HAS SUBMITTED, JUST TO SHOW HOW THE 4 TO 1 SLOPE WOULD BE APPLIED FROM THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES THAT ARE ADJACENT TO IT.

ON SEPTEMBER 19TH, THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS HELD AT P&Z AND AS I MENTIONED, THEY TABLED THE ITEM TO GO BACK AND WORK THROUGH SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT WERE DISCUSSED AT THAT MEETING. THEY TABLED THAT ITEM OUT UNTIL THE NOVEMBER 7TH MEETING, AND AT THAT MEETING, THE ITEM WAS APPROVED 3 TO 2 SUBJECT TO THE STAFF REPORT AND THE PLAN REVIEW SUMMARIES THAT WERE IN THAT REPORT.

THIS IS THE NOTICE AREA MAP AND RESPONSES THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED AND PROXIMITY TO THE PROJECT, INCLUSIVE OF OUR 300 FOOT NOTIFICATION AREA, AS WELL AS THE 200 FOOT NOTIFICATION AREA THAT CAN IMPACT YOUR VOTE REQUIREMENT. AS OF TO DATE THE OPPOSITION FROM SURROUNDING PROPERTY OWNERS IS AT APPROXIMATELY 37% OF THAT 200 FOOT BUFFER AREA, WHICH AT A SECOND READING WOULD REQUIRE A SUPERMAJORITY VOTE BY THE COUNCIL IN ORDER TO APPROVE THIS ITEM.

I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, AND THE APPLICANT HAS A PRESENTATION WHICH THEY CAN.

[00:45:02]

DENNIS, I HAVE A QUESTION.

CAN YOU ON THE MAP, THERE'S SOME REFERENCE IN THE PACKET TO A FUTURE.

THE FUTURE MEDIANS, CAN YOU POINT OUT.

AND THERE'S GOING TO BE A MEDIAN BREAK.

CAN YOU POINT OUT ON DAVIS WHERE THAT IS.

YES. THANK YOU.

LET ME GET TO AN OVERALL SITE PLAN.

AND THIS EXHIBIT RIGHT NOW, THE MEDIAN BREAK ON THE CURRENT PLANS THAT THE CITY HAS BEEN SHOWN WOULD BE CENTERED AROUND THIS ACCESS DRIVE, WHICH IT IS INTENDED AS AN EMERGENCY ACCESS ONLY.

IT DOES ALIGN WITH THE STREET COMING OUT OF RIDGEVIEW TO THE EAST OF IT.

THE APPLICANT HAS, WE UNDERSTAND BEEN DISCUSSING WITH TXDOT AND TXDOT CAN RELOCATE THE DRIVE AND DID PROVIDE US A RESPONSE TO THIS APPLICATION THAT SHOULD THE TRAFFIC WARRANT, THEY COULD RELOCATE THE MEDIAN BREAK TO ALIGN WHERE THE MOST APPROPRIATE DRIVE WOULD BE APPROVED.

THE CURRENT DRIVE HERE WOULD ALIGN WITH THE MOST SOUTHERN ENTRY INTO WHAT IS CALLED HIDDEN KNOLLS, WHICH IS THE SECOND PHASE OF RIDGEVIEW. AND I COULD PROBABLY.

MIGHT HAVE HELPED TO GO TO THE AERIAL TO SHOW THAT TOO.

BUT CURRENTLY THIS IS WHERE THEIR EMERGENCY ACCESS DRIVE IS, AND THAT'S WHERE TXDOT'S ORIGINAL PLAN SHOWED THE MEETING CROSSING. AND THIS IS WHERE THEIR MAIN DRIVEWAY IS.

AND TXDOT HAS INDICATED THAT A MEDIAN BREAK COULD BE EITHER RELOCATED OR PROVIDED AT THAT OTHER DRIVEWAY SHOULD THE TRAFFIC WARRANT.

AND I BELIEVE THE APPLICANT HAS BEEN WORKING WITH TXDOT ON THAT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH, AT LEAST RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, DIRECTOR KILLOUGH.

THANK YOU. WE'LL ASK THE APPLICANT TO COME DOWN.

WELCOME TO BOTH OF YOU.

AND IF YOU COULD BOTH STATE YOUR NAMES AND ADDRESSES FOR THE RECORD, AND THEN THE MICROPHONE IS YOURS.

I THINK YOUR PRESENTATION IS ALREADY LOADED UP.

GOOD EVENING, I'M JANELLE BERTOLINO.

MY ADDRESS IS 12467 MERRITT DRIVE, DALLAS, TEXAS.

75231. GOOD EVENING.

I'M TIM MALLARD, CEO FOR FOREFRONT LIVING.

SAME ADDRESS AS JANELLE.

WORK ADDRESS.

AND THANK YOU FOR SPEAKING TO US THIS EVENING.

I CAN BEGIN THE PRESENTATION BY SAYING A GOOD PORTION OF WHAT YOU JUST SAW IS CONTAINED WITHIN THIS PRESENTATION.

SO WE WILL NOT SPEND TOO MUCH TIME ON THE SLIDES, AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THERE'LL BE TIME FOR QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.

SO IF I CAN FIGURE OUT THIS CURSOR THEN WE'RE GOOD.

FOREFRONT LIVING VERY, VERY EASY STORY.

WE'VE BEEN SERVING SENIORS IN THIS PART OF TEXAS FOR NEARLY 65 YEARS.

WE HAVE TO UPDATE THIS SLIDE.

WE CURRENTLY OWN TWO CCRCS.

CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES IN DALLAS, ONE IN DALLAS AND ONE IN PLANO.

AND FAITH PRESBYTERIAN HOSPICE, AS WELL AS THE T BOONE PICKENS HOSPICE AND PALLIATIVE CARE CENTER.

FAITH SERVES ALL OF THE METROPLEX WHILE THE HOSPICE IS WITHIN DALLAS.

OUR VISION IS SIMPLE.

IT'S TO BE THE INNOVATIVE PARTNER THAT EMPOWERS INDIVIDUALS TO THRIVE.

OUR MISSION IS ALSO SIMPLE.

IT IS TO MAKE EACH MOMENT MATTER FOR THOSE WE SERVE.

WE ARE A FAITH BASED ORGANIZATION AND OUR VALUES ARE DIVERSITY, INTEGRITY, STEWARDSHIP AND COMPASSION.

AND WITH THE INTEGRITY, TRANSPARENCY.

AND I PROMISE YOU TONIGHT WILL BE AS TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE AS WE'VE BEEN THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS.

JUST TO GIVE A LITTLE PRIMER ON THE CONTINUING CARE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY, CCRC, AS WE CALL IT, A RESIDENT MUST MEET THE AGE QUALIFICATION OF AT LEAST 62 YEARS OF AGE AND HAVE INCOME AND ASSETS TO QUALIFY FOR THE FEE.

STRUCTURE. A CONTINUUM OF CARE INDICATES MULTIPLE LEVELS OF LIVING.

IN THIS CASE, WE'RE LOOKING AT INDEPENDENT LIVING, A VERY SMALL ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY SUPPORT.

THIS IS NOT A RENTAL ARRANGEMENT.

THIS IS AN ENTRY FEE ARRANGEMENT IN RETURN FOR A ONE TIME REFUNDABLE ENTRY FEE.

THE RESIDENT HAS LIFETIME USE OF THE COMMUNITY OR THE FACILITIES.

[00:50:05]

SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS, YOU'RE LOOKING RATHER THAN A RENTAL THAT HAS A SHORTER LENGTH OF STAY.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT ABOUT A 14 YEAR AVERAGE STAY OF A RESIDENT.

SO THIS IS NOT A TRANSIENT SITUATION WHEN WE USE THE TERM COMMUNITY, IT'S VERY INTENTIONAL BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

SITE PROFILE I THINK YOU'VE SEEN THAT.

I THINK AS WE HAVE LOOKED AT AND I DON'T THINK I KNOW AND WORKED ON PULLING TOGETHER A PROJECT.

THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT SITE.

THE FLOODPLAIN REDUCES A BUILDABLE AREA.

THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT SLOPE, BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS IT'S IDEAL FOR SENIOR LIVING.

WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO EMBRACE ALL OF THE NUANCES OF THE SITE, AND WE HAVE BEEN TOLD, AND I THINK AND AGREE, THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST USES FOR THIS SITE OR THE MOST VIABLE USE FOR IT THAT'S BEEN PRESENTED SO FAR.

SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE EVOLUTION OF THE COMMUNITY, WE BEGAN ATTENDING CORRIDOR SPIN MEETINGS.

THE VERY FIRST ITERATION OF WHAT WE PRESENTED WAS ROUGHLY 120 TO 160 INDEPENDENT LIVING RESIDENCES, 36 INDEPENDENT LIVING COTTAGES, AND ALMOST 60 ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE.

SO ABOUT 11.98 OR 12 RESIDENCES PER ACRE.

WE WERE ADVISED AT THAT POINT IN TIME THAT THAT WAS TOO DENSE, TOO MUCH.

SO WE WENT BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD AND CAME BACK WITH THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION THAT YOU HAVE NOW, WHICH IS 158 INDEPENDENT LIVING.

20 INDEPENDENT LIVING COTTAGES, 32 ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE RESIDENCES.

SO 16 EACH OF THOSE WHICH IS JUST SHY OF TEN RESIDENCES PER ACRE.

AND WHEN WE LOOK AT THIS, THIS IS THE POINT WHERE WE BEGAN GETTING FEEDBACK ABOUT BUILDING HEIGHT, ABOUT THE MASS OF THE BUILDING. YOU KNOW, FORTUNATELY, WITH THE SLOPE, WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO LOCATE PARKING UNDERGROUND.

BUT IT WAS FOUR STOREYS ON A PARKING DECK.

WE HAD SIGNIFICANT COMMENTARY ABOUT THAT IN MEETING WITH THE NEIGHBORS.

AND ONE OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS WAS TO ELONGATE THE BUILDING AND BRING THE MASS DOWN.

AND I THINK THE HOPE OF THAT WAS TO ELIMINATE THE COTTAGES, TOO, BUT THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE.

HOWEVER, WHAT IT ALLOWED US TO DO IS COME BACK WITH THIS SITE PLAN WHERE WE ACTUALLY WERE ABLE TO ELONGATE THE BUILDING.

WE'LL TALK IN A MINUTE ABOUT HOW WE REDUCED THE NUMBER OF FLOORS, BUT ALSO RELOCATE SOME OF THE COTTAGES CLOSER TO THE CREEK AREA TO CREATE MORE OF A RESIDENTIAL OR A HOME LIKE BARRIER BETWEEN THE ADJOINING PROPERTIES.

SO THIS IS WHAT WE SUBMITTED AND THIS IS WHAT WAS APPROVED.

WE RECEIVED A LOT OF FEEDBACK.

I THINK DENSITY ALL ALONG WAS A COMMENT.

SO THE REDUCTION FROM 252 TO 210 RESIDENCES HEIGHT.

WE'LL TALK ABOUT IN A MOMENT AS WE LOOKED AT THE REDUCTION IN HEIGHT AND THE NUMBER OF FLOORS.

TRAFFIC WAS A BIG CONSIDERATION AND A BIG FEAR.

THERE WAS A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT THE POTENTIAL INCREASE ON DAVIS BOULEVARD IN PARTICULAR, AND THE DANGER THAT IT MAY PRESENT TO SENIORS.

THE STUDIES THAT WE CONDUCTED AND THAT WERE TALKED ABOUT, P&Z, REALLY INDICATED THAT THIS DOES NOT NEGATIVELY IMPACT TRAFFIC.

THIS POPULATION IS IT'S A LOWER DENSITY AND NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS LIVING WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.

SO IT'S ABOUT A 1.3 VERSUS TYPICALLY IN SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, THAT WOULD BE DIFFERENT BEFORE PER RESIDENTS.

AND AGAIN WITH THE TREES, WE FOLLOWED THE CITY TREE REQUIREMENTS, BUT ALSO HAVE ADDED AN EVERGREEN BARRIER ALONG THE WETLAND AREA AGAIN TO PROTECT VIEWS.

THERE WAS SOME CONCERN ABOUT CAR LIGHTS AND PARKING AND OTHER THINGS AND SEEING INTO THE COMMUNITY, AND I KNOW OUR RESIDENTS DON'T WANT TO SEE THE OTHER WAY. SO THERE WAS AN ADDITION OF REALLY A A LIVING WALL OF EVERGREENS AND AGAIN, A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT PARKING.

SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN, YOU WILL NOT SEE A LOT OF SURFACE PARKING.

MAJORITY OF THE RESIDENTS WILL HAVE PARKING UNDERNEATH THE COMMUNITY, AND THE HOMES ACTUALLY HAVE TWO CAR GARAGES.

AND EMPLOYEE PARKING WAS MOVED AWAY FROM ANY RESIDENTIAL ADJACENCIES TO THE MORE COMMERCIAL SIDE OF THE SITE.

SO I THINK IF WE LOOK AT DENSITY, WE CAN TALK ABOUT THESE TWO CHARTS.

[00:55:02]

FIRST NUMBER OF RESIDENCES WERE REDUCED BASED ON THE INITIAL CORRIDOR FEEDBACK.

OCCUPANCY, I SAID EARLIER, IS AT 1.3 VERSUS A POTENTIAL OF 3 TO 4 INDIVIDUALS PER RESIDENCE.

THE NUMBER OF RESIDENCES THAT ARE PLANNED ARE WHAT WE CONSIDER THE NUMBER OF MINIMUM.

OF RESIDENTS TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THE LEVEL OF AMENITIES AND SERVICES EXPECTED BY AFFLUENT SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS.

SO WHEN I'M TALKING ABOUT THAT, I'M TALKING ABOUT INDOOR SWIMMING POOL, MULTIPLE DINING VENUES, EXERCISE AND FITNESS AREAS, OUTDOOR TRAILS THAT WILL HOPEFULLY SOMEDAY CONNECT TO THE PARK SYSTEM.

IN THE TRAIL SYSTEM THAT'S BEING DISCUSSED FOR THIS CITY.

AND IF YOU LOOK AT A COMPARISON, WE'VE GOT A COMPARISON HERE OF THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT AT 12 COMING DOWN TO JUST UNDER TEN.

AND THEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION WAS HAD ABOUT WATER MIRROR, WHICH IS WITHIN REALLY VISUAL DISTANCE OF THIS COMMUNITY AND WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

SO THIS COMMUNITY IS PLANNED AT TEN RESIDENCES PER ACRE.

WATER MIRROR SITS AT 12.32 PER ACRE.

SO WE TOOK THAT INTO CONSIDERATION BECAUSE THERE WERE SOME CONCERNS THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT SOMETHING LOOMING OVER THE NEIGHBORHOODS IN THIS SECTION AS WELL.

OOP. WRONG ONE.

SORRY. DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS, JANELLE? SURE. SO THIS REALLY IS JUST EXHIBITING THE SIGNIFICANT HEIGHT REDUCTION THAT WAS THAT WE WENT THROUGH.

SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE YELLOW AREA, THAT'S A VERY LARGE PORTION OF THE BUILDING THAT WAS BROUGHT DOWN.

ONE FULL STORY.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE BLUE LINE HERE IN FRONT OF DAVIS, AGAIN, WE ADJUSTED THAT HEIGHT, BROUGHT THAT FROM THREE STORY TO TWO.

AND THEN IN THE VERY BACK ON THE WEST LOCATION, THIS WAS ACTUALLY DROPPED TWO STORIES.

AND THEN I JUST WANT TO MAKE NOTE THAT THIS SECTION RIGHT IN HERE REMAINS FOUR STORY.

AND THAT WOULD BE ONLY ABOUT 3% OF THE RESIDENTS IN THAT LOCATION AND IN THE VERY MIDDLE OF THE COMMUNITY, AND THIS WAS ALREADY MENTIONED.

BUT WHAT I WANTED TO SAY SHOW EXHIBIT HERE IS THAT WITH THE RESIDENTIAL PROXIMITY SLOPE, BECAUSE OF THE FLOODPLAIN, THIS IS THE EDGE OF OUR PROPERTY.

BUT IF WE TOOK THAT ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE EDGE OF THE WEST NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE'S SIGNIFICANT DISTANCE FROM THE ELEVATIONS OF THE COMMUNITY, EVEN HERE AT THE AT THE CENTER OF THE COMMUNITY.

AND SO NOT ONLY HAVE I THINK THAT EXHIBITS THAT, YOU KNOW, THEY WOULD THIS WOULD NOT BE VISIBLE OR MINIMAL VISIBILITY AND ALSO WOULD NOT BE LOOMING OVER ANY NEIGHBORHOOD.

AND AGAIN, THAT'S WHAT OUR RESIDENTS WANT AS WELL.

THEY WANT TO HAVE THAT YOU KNOW, SECLUSION AND PRIVACY AS WELL.

AND WE DID A NUMBER OF IMPACT STUDIES, AND THERE WAS A COMMENT DURING P&Z THAT WE TOOK VERY SERIOUSLY, THAT YOU COULD TAKE A PICTURE FROM ANYWHERE TO PROVE ANY POINT YOU WANTED TO PROVE.

SO IN ORDER TO BRING SOME CLARITY, THE YELLOW LINE IS WHERE THE BUILDING WOULD EXIST.

ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TREES, THIS RED ARROW RIGHT HERE IS WHERE THIS WAS TAKEN IN THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT.

AND WE'LL GO THROUGH A SERIES OF THESE.

THIS IS TO THE WEST.

AND AGAIN THE ARROW INDICATES WHERE THE SIGHT LINES ARE.

THEN WE'RE GOING FURTHER BACK AND YOU'LL SEE THE SIGHT LINES AGAIN.

AND THIS IS FROM ABOUT 1000FT ACROSS THE LAKE.

SO YOU BEGIN TO SEE THE TOPS, THE VERY TOP OF THAT 3% AREA THAT JANELLE JUST MENTIONED.

THERE ARE ALSO DRONE PHOTOS THAT JUST BECAUSE OF TIMING TONIGHT WE DIDN'T INCLUDE HERE BUT ARE IN THE APPENDICES AND THOSE PHOTOS WERE TAKEN TWO DAYS AGO.

THAT WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD INDICATION OF HEIGHT AND EVEN HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF WHAT CAN AND CAN'T BE SEEN.

BUT THE MAP WOULD REFER TO WHERE THIS WAS TAKEN ON THE SITE.

JANELLE, YOU WANT TO GO THROUGH THESE? I THINK WE JUST WENT THROUGH THESE, ACTUALLY.

YEAH. THE ONLY THING I WAS REALLY GOING TO MENTION, I'LL JUST GO BACK TO THIS ONE REAL QUICK IS AGAIN YOU KNOW, WE TOOK A LOT OF EFFORT INTO MAKING SURE THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN REALLY FIT THE COMMUNITY OF SOUTHLAKE.

AND THE QUALITY OF FINISHES HERE IS 80% MASONRY.

AND THEN AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THAT ELEVATION OR THAT HEIGHT CHANGE HERE.

ALONG DAVIS.

AND THESE YOU SAW AS WELL.

BUT WE JUST WANTED TO POINT THAT IN THE SOUTHWEST AND NORTHWEST VIEWS HERE, THESE ARE REALLY WHAT OUR RESIDENTS WILL SEE THAT WILL BE LIVING THERE.

[01:00:06]

AND SO AS THEY'RE TRAVERSING BACK YOU CAN SEE THAT THERE'S THE BUFFER OF THE FLOODPLAIN AND THE COTTAGES AND AGAIN EXHIBITING WHERE WE HAVE REDUCED THE BUILDING HEIGHT FROM THE BACK.

SO FOREFRONT REALLY STRIVES TO BE A PARTNER IN THE COMMUNITIES WHERE WE HAVE SENIOR LIVING, AND WE REALLY WANT TO SUPPORT AND BE A RESOURCE TO THE COMMUNITY.

THIS COMMUNITY, THIS PROPOSED PROJECT ALIGNS WITH AT LEAST FIVE INITIATIVES FOR THE HEALTH AND WELLNESS PLAN.

IT ALSO MEETS THE COMP PLAN OF THE LAND USE FOR MIXED USE.

AND THEN I THINK IT WAS ALREADY MENTIONED THAT WE WILL HAVE A TRAIL IN THE BACK BY THE FLOODPLAIN AREA AND THAT WE PLAN TO YOU KNOW, THAT CAN CONNECT TO SOUTHLAKE CITY TRAIL SYSTEM AND SOME FUTURE DATE.

AND THEN WE ALSO WILL BE SUPPORTING THE SENIOR ADVISORY COMMISSION.

WE'VE ALREADY MET SOME OF THE FOLKS THERE AND LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THEM.

ANOTHER ASPECT IS WE LIKE TO SUPPORT ALSO THE LOCAL SCHOOLS.

SO, FOR CARROLL ISD HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS, WE HAVE INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS, WE HAVE VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS, INTERGENERATIONAL PROGRAMS WITH SENIORS, AND POSSIBLE JOB OPPORTUNITIES.

WE MET WITH THE DIRECTOR OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND TOURISM LAST WEEK TO TALK OVER OUR ECONOMIC BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY.

OF COURSE, WE HAVE THE RESIDENTS THAT WILL CONTINUE TO SHOP AND DINE AND UTILIZE SERVICES HERE IN SOUTHLAKE, SPENDING MONEY SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES ALONG WITH THE EMPLOYEES THAT WITH THE NEWLY CREATED JOBS.

ALSO WHEN THE COMMUNITY IS AT STABILIZATION, WE WILL BE SPENDING A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT ON GOODS AND SERVICES RIGHT HERE IN SOUTHLAKE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS TO SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY.

THAT WOULD BE THINGS LIKE FROM COSTCO, LOWE'S, HOME DEPOT PRINTING, GENERAL CONTRACTORS, JUST TO NAME A FEW, AND OF COURSE, AS RESIDENTS MOVE IN FROM SOUTHLAKE, THOSE HOMES WOULD BE OPEN FOR YOUNGER RESIDENTS, POTENTIALLY WITH FAMILIES TO SUPPORT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT IN ENROLLMENT.

AND THEN ONE THING WE DID DISCUSS WITH THE DIRECTOR WAS THE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY HERE, AND WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD.

IF THIS MOVES FORWARD, WE WILL BE LEASING COMMERCIAL PROPERTY FOR SEVERAL YEARS THROUGH THE THAT WILL BE OUR MARKETING CENTER.

AND WE'LL BE LEASING THAT THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AND THROUGH THE FILL UP.

AND THEN LASTLY, FOREFRONT WILL WORK WITH THE CITY TO MINIMIZE ANY FINANCIAL IMPACT THE COMMUNITY MIGHT BEAR USING THE COMMUNITY SERVICES HERE OR THE CITY SERVICES TO SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY Y SOUTHLAKE INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, WE JUST OPENED THE OUTLOOK AT WINDHAVEN IN PLANO, AND WE DISCOVERED EARLY ON THAT WE HAD A NUMBER OF SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS COMING TO PLANO LOOKING AT IT, BUT NOT WANTING TO LEAVE SOUTHLAKE.

IN FACT, WE HAD AN EVENT HERE AND HAD 30 INDIVIDUALS SHOW UP AND EXPRESS INTEREST.

WE WERE HOPING FOR THE OUTLOOK IN PLANO, BUT YOU KNOW, THE IDEA WAS, CAN YOU BUILD SOMETHING IN SOUTHLAKE? SUBSEQUENTLY, WE'VE HAD TWO MORE OF THOSE MEETINGS WITH AS MANY INDIVIDUALS THERE AND CONTINUE TO RECEIVE THAT FEEDBACK.

AND AS WE DID OUR HOMEWORK AND WE LOOKED AT SOUTHLAKE, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CAPACITY IN SOUTHLAKE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF SOUTHLAKE SENIORS. THE SOUTHLAKE SENIOR POPULATION, AGE 65 AND ABOVE, IS PROJECTED TO GROW BY 30% BY 2029.

SO, AND IF YOU LOOK AT 2030, AN INTERESTING STATISTIC IS THAT IS THE YEAR WHERE THERE WILL BE MORE INDIVIDUALS IN THIS COUNTRY OVER THE AGE OF 65 THAN UNDER THE AGE OF 65.

I WAS STRUCK EARLIER WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT THE PHOTOS FROM THE 80S AND HEARING SOME OF THE STORIES ABOUT THE PLANNING AND ABOUT THE CREATION OF A COMMUNITY THAT PEOPLE WANT TO STAY IN AND DON'T WANT TO LEAVE, AND IS THE ENVY OF OTHER COMMUNITIES IN THE METROPLEX.

I THINK THAT WHAT WE HAVE SEEN FROM THE SENIORS THAT LIVE HERE, THAT THAT IS DEFINITELY THE TRUTH, AND THEY WANT TO STAY HERE.

WE WANT TO CREATE AND WE WILL CREATE A VALUED ASSET, A LONG TERM ASSET.

WE'RE NOT BUILDING SOMETHING TO SELL.

WE ALIGN WITH YOUR COMPREHENSIVE AND STRATEGIC PLANS.

WE ADDRESS THE DESIRES OF SOUTHLAKE SENIORS TO REMAIN IN THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE AS THEY AGE.

YOU KNOW, EARLIER COMMENTS WERE THAT THIS WAS NOT NECESSARILY APPROPRIATE FOR WHERE IT IS THAT SENIORS BELONGED ALONG 114 BUT WE FEEL THAT SENIORS DESERVE TO MAINTAIN THEIR LIFESTYLE IN A RESIDENTIAL SETTING RATHER THAN LIVING ALONG A FRONTAGE ROAD.

[01:05:05]

SO WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST APPROVAL OF THIS ZONING CASE AND WE ARE OPEN FOR QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, THOUGHTS? WELL, THANK YOU FOR THAT ANSWER.

OH GO AHEAD. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION.

ANY QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME OR DISCUSSION? WE MIGHT HAVE SOME AFTER WE HEAR FROM THE AUDIENCE, BUT SO STICK AROUND.

OF COURSE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

ITEM SEVEN A DOES NOT REQUIRE A PUBLIC HEARING BECAUSE IT'S A FIRST READING.

BUT I CAN SEE THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE HERE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK.

SO WE WILL OPEN A PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEM SEVEN A.

I HAVE SOME COMMENT CARDS.

SOME HAVE BEEN MARKED THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK.

YOU CAN CERTAINLY SPEAK.

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

ON THE OTHER SIDE, IF YOU'VE SUBMITTED A COMMENT CARD AND YOU INDICATED YOU DID NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND, YOU CAN CERTAINLY COME UP AND I'LL JUST CALL NAMES AND WE'LL GO FROM THERE AND I'LL TRY MY BEST ON THE PRONUNCIATIONS.

AND I APPRECIATE THOSE WITH THE GOOD PENMANSHIP BECAUSE IT MAKES MY JOB A LOT EASIER.

BUT LET'S START WITH L NICHOLS AT 1017 WEST MURPHY.

WE'LL SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

THEN ONCE YOU GET TO THE PODIUM IF YOU COULD AGAIN STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, EVEN THOUGH I JUST DID IT.

WE HAVE A THREE MINUTE TIMING SYSTEM.

THE LIGHT WILL TURN GREEN TO START YOUR TIME.

WHEN IT GETS TO YELLOW, THAT MEANS ONE MINUTE IS LEFT.

AND THEN WHEN IT TURNS RED. IF YOU COULD WRAP UP YOUR COMMENT AND WE'LL GO FROM THERE.

SO THE MICROPHONE IS YOURS.

IF YOU COULD GIVE US YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.

WINONA NICHOLS, 1017 WEST MURPHY, COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS.

HELLO, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, I APPRECIATE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK WITH YOU TODAY.

ACTUALLY, HAVING THE PRESENTATION BY FOREFRONT, THEY COVERED PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING I WAS GOING TO SAY AND BASICALLY MY INTEREST IN THIS IS I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH TRYING TO HELP A SENIOR FROM COLLEYVILLE FIND A PLACE TO LIVE, SOLD THEIR PROPERTY, AND I CHOSE DISCOVERY.

AND DISCOVERY IS SIMILAR TO THIS IN THAT IT HAS THAT PROGRESSIVE HOME WHERE YOU CAN START OUT AS AN INDEPENDENT AND THEN GO THROUGH ASSISTED GO THROUGH EITHER MEMORY CARE OR A NURSING HOME RIGHT ON IN.

SO I WAS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STAY.

THAT WAS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE IF YOU PLACE A SENIOR IN A PROPERTY THAT JUST HAS ONE FACILITY TYPE, THEN AS PROGRESSION GOES ON, YOU HAVE TO FIND ANOTHER FACILITY TYPE.

BUT I REALLY WANTED TO SAY THAT I THINK FOREFRONT WILL BE GREAT FOR ASSISTING SENIORS IN THEIR TRANSITION.

IT APPEALS TO THE CURRENT SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS AND IT KEEPS THEM CLOSE TO, AS I SAID, FRIENDS, FAMILY, COMMUNITY, THINGS THAT THEY'RE FAMILIAR WITH.

AND THE LADY I WAS WORKING WITH, THAT WAS ONE THING SHE WANTED TO STAY AROUND IN THIS COMMUNITY SO THAT BECAUSE SHE KNEW WHERE THE STORES WERE, SHE KNEW WHERE TO GO.

SHE KNEW WHERE HER FRIENDS WERE AND HER CHURCH FOR THINGS THOUGH, THAT THAT REALLY IMPRESSED ME ABOUT FOREFRONT.

I DID GO TO ONE OF THEIR PRESENTATIONS WAS THAT THEY ARE FAITH BASED AND IN LOOKING AT FACILITIES, FAITH BASED WAS IMPORTANT.

THEIR NONPROFIT, WHICH IS HUGE.

THEY'RE NOT INTO HAVE MONEY RAISED PRICES.

YOU KNOW, JUST A CONTINUAL UPTICK ON THAT TO HELP SENIORS MAINTAIN THEIR LIFE OF MONEY.

THEY ALSO PROVIDE THE RESIDENTS WITH THAT CONTINUED CARE, WHICH IS FANTASTIC.

BUT THEY HAVE A LITTLE NUANCE IN THERE THAT THEY HAVE A SITUATION THAT THEY PROVIDE FOR THEIR SENIORS AND THEIR OPPORTUNITIES OF THEIR COMPLEX, THAT THEY WILL NOT OUTLIVE THEIR MONEY. SO THEY HAVE A FUND THAT IS SET THERE SO THAT THE SENIORS, IF THEY DO GET TO THE PLACE WHERE THEY DO NOT HAVE ADDITIONAL FUNDS, THEY ASSIST THEM, WHICH IS VERY UNIQUE.

I KNOW PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT THE TRAFFIC IMPACT, THE THE NOISE IMPACT, BUT I THINK THAT IF YOU REALLY LOOK AT IT, THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH ANY USE OF THAT LAND.

IT COULD BE RESTAURANTS, IT COULD BE SOMETHING ELSE.

THE LAND. YOU'RE THE OWNERS OF, THE LAND, THEY'RE KIND OF HELD HOSTAGES.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THIS LAND? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO? AND THIS SENIOR FOREFRONT? IT'S A NICE, QUIET COMMUNITY.

IT OFFERS A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY TO USE THAT, AND IT PROVIDES EXCELLENCE FOR WHAT SOUTHLAKE PROVIDES TO THEIR SENIORS.

AND IN CLOSING, I WOULD JUST SAY THAT I WOULD APPRECIATE YOU TO CONSIDER THIS BECAUSE AS A SENIOR THAT LIVES IN COLLEYVILLE AND IN THIS COMMUNITY, IT'S SOMETHING THAT I MIGHT, YOU KNOW, HAVE TO HAVE ONE DAY.

AND I LOOK FORWARD TO AN OPPORTUNITY TO STAY AT A FACILITY LIKE FOREFRONT.

IT APPEALS TO ME GREATLY, AS I THINK IT WILL TO A LOT OF SOUTHLAKE, KELLER AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS TO HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE IN SUCH A NICE COMPLEX.

I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND I AM IN FAVOR OF THE FOREFRONT.

WE APPRECIATE YOU. THANK YOU FOR THAT.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

NEXT UP IS DAVE HOWELL AT 625.

SOUTHVIEW TRAIL WISHES TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

COME ON DOWN, SIR.

AGAIN, IF YOU COULD STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, EVEN THOUGH I JUST DID IT.

AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE YOUR THREE MINUTES.

I AM DAVE HOWELL AT 625 SOUTHVIEW TRAIL.

[01:10:04]

I SAW YOU GUYS LATEST VIDEO ON FACEBOOK TOUTING WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IN SOUTHLAKE, AND I LIKE THAT.

MY FAMILY HAS BEEN HERE FOR 31 YEARS.

WHERE YOU GUYS ARE SITTING WAS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF FISHTOWN FARM WHEN WE MOVED HERE.

THINGS HAVE CHANGED FOR THE BETTER.

OUR FAMILY HAS GROWN UP HERE.

OUR DAUGHTER. K THROUGH 12 HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DRAGON.

WE'VE BEEN HERE SO LONG THAT HER ESCORT AT HOMECOMING WAS A YOUNG FOOTBALL PLAYER NAMED RILEY DODGE.

WHO'S NOW THE HEAD COACH.

WE LOVE IT HERE.

AND WE WOULD LIKE TO DOWNSIZE.

AND WE'VE LOOKED AND WE'VE LOOKED, BUT WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE SOUTHLAKE.

IT'S GOT EVERYTHING. IT'S GOT SHOPS.

IT'S GOT ATHLETICS.

GREAT ATHLETICS.

AND IT'S GOT AS WE AGE.

WE FIND IT HAS OUR DOCTORS, WHICH BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT THE OLDER WE GET.

AND IF YOU TALK TO A REAL ESTATE AGENT, I'LL BET THEY'LL TELL YOU THAT EMPTY NESTERS HERE IN SOUTHLAKE DON'T LEAVE LIKE THEY DO IN OTHER AREAS.

IN THE METROPLEX.

THEY STAY BECAUSE THEY LIKE IT HERE.

I THINK THAT FOREFRONT WILL ACTUALLY HELP THE CARROLL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, BECAUSE THE MONEY THAT OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT GETS IS DRIVEN BY ENROLLMENT.

WHEN MY WIFE AND I MOVE OUT OF HERE, TWO OTHER OLD PEOPLE AREN'T GOING TO MOVE IN.

I'LL BET YOU IT'LL BE A FAMILY AND THEY WILL HAVE KIDS THAT WILL GO TO SCHOOL HERE, AND THAT WILL ENROLLMENT IS DOLLARS TO THE CARROLL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT. ALSO, WHEN WE MOVE IN, A NEW FAMILY MOVES IN.

THEY'LL START PAYING TAXES, PROPERTY TAXES, ET CETERA.

AND FOLKS LIKE ME HAVE THE 65 EXEMPTION.

THE NEW PEOPLE THAT COME IN, I'LL BET YOU THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE 65 OR OLDER, THEY'RE GOING TO BE YOUNGER.

AND TO THOSE OPPONENTS OF FOREFRONT, I WOULD JUST REMIND THEM OF TWO THINGS.

THEY'RE GOING TO GET OLD IF THEY'RE LUCKY, AND IF THEY'RE LUCKY, THERE'LL BE A PLACE LIKE FOREFRONT THEY CAN GO TO.

AND THE OTHER THING TO REMIND THEM OF IS SOMETHING IS GOING TO GO THERE, AND A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHOSE NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTIES ARE OVER AT 09:00 PM ARE NOT BAD NEIGHBORS.

I HOPE THAT YOU GUYS WILL LOOK FAVORABLY ON FOUR FRONTS.

PROPOSAL. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, SIR. APPRECIATE IT.

NEXT UP IS JIM JANOWIAK.

2812 RIVER BROOK HERE IN SOUTHLAKE WILL SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

COME ON DOWN, SIR.

THANK YOU. JIM [INAUDIBLE], 2812 RIVER BROOK WAY, SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.

I'VE BEEN HERE SINCE MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN HERE SINCE DECEMBER OF 1998, SO NOT QUITE AS LONG AS THE PREVIOUS PERSON, BUT 25 YEARS.

COUNTS FOR LITTLE.

I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THAT THE PREVIOUS PERSON SAID.

AND HE TOOK ONE OF TWO THINGS THAT I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT, AND THAT'S THAT US OLD FOLKS WHO'VE BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE DON'T REALLY HAVE A PLACE TO GO, AND THAT'S KIND OF BY DESIGN. THERE'S BEEN A BIG CONCERN ABOUT DENSITY, BUT ONCE WE WENT FROM OUR 4000 SQUARE FOOT HOME IN TIMBERON TO OUR 2700 SQUARE FOOT HOME JUST SOUTH OF WATER MIRROR.

STILL IN SOUTH LAKE THOUGH.

THE NEXT STAGE OF 1800 SQUARE FEET DOESN'T FIT WHAT MOST SUBDIVISIONS ARE APPROVED FOR.

THEY'RE FOR 2500 OR MORE.

A FACILITY LIKE FOREFRONT WOULD ALLOW US TO HAVE A SMALLER PLACE TAKEN CARE OF, SO I WOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT CLIMBING ON THE ROOF TO PUT MY CHRISTMAS LIGHTS UP, OR WORRYING ABOUT THE LEAK THAT MIGHT BE UP THERE.

SO WE'RE JUST LOOKING FOR SOME PLACE TO GO RIGHT NOW AFTER YOU GET OUT OF YOUR 2500 SQUARE FOOT HOME.

UNLESS YOU CAN GET IN WATER MIRROR, WHICH HAS A WAIT LIST, BY THE WAY, SO YOU CAN'T GET IN THERE RIGHT AWAY.

YOUR OTHER CHOICES ARE ASSISTED LIVING OR NURSING HOME.

THOSE FACILITIES DO EXIST IN SOUTHLAKE.

SO I ASK YOU TO CONSIDER THIS THING BY FOREFRONT, BUT THAT'S FOR ME.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU? WELL, SOMETHING'S GOING TO GO HERE IN THIS PLACE.

AND RIGHT NOW, IT'S MAJORITY RESIDENTIAL ESTATE.

SO IF THIS DOESN'T GO THERE AND YOU HAVE BIG ESTATES, THE PEOPLE THAT ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE NOISE ARE STILL GOING TO HAVE THE SWIMMING POOLS, THE TRAMPOLINES, POSSIBLE TENNIS COURTS, WHATEVER IT IS, THOSE ISSUES ARE GOING TO BE THE SAME FOR THE NEXT GROUP, EVEN IF THEY STAY IN ESTATES, IF IT GOES TO

[01:15:07]

COMMERCIAL, AND I THINK IN THE FIRST PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING, THEY MENTIONED THAT IT THEY'VE HAD SOME PROPOSITIONS AND NONE OF THEM HAVE FLOWN.

IT'S GOING TO BE JUST AS NOISY.

SO I SEE MY TIME IS UP.

I ASK YOU TO PLEASE CONSIDER THIS A PROPOSAL FROM FOREFRONT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

APPRECIATE IT. NEXT WE HAVE DEBBIE SCHNEIDER AT 2513 MARKET GROVE.

LOOP WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

SEVEN A, COME ON DOWN.

HI, I'M DEBBIE SCHNEIDER AT 2513 PARK LOVE PARK GROVE LOOP IN SOUTHLAKE.

I'M SPEAKING IN OPPOSITION TO THE FOREFRONT LIVING DEVELOPMENT DUE TO THE SIZE, THE DENSITY AND THE DEVELOPMENT TYPE.

I'M NOT OPPOSED TO SENIOR LIVING.

I MEAN, WE'VE GONE THROUGH THAT WITH OUR PARENTS FOR SURE.

IT JUST MUST BE LOCATED IN AN APPROPRIATE ZONED AREAS COMPATIBLE TO THE ADJOINING DEVELOPMENT.

THE CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SAYS THE FOLLOWING ABOUT THE PROPERTY.

FOREFRONT IS WANTING TO DEVELOP.

THE SCALE OF DEVELOPMENT IS INTENDED TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING AREA AND USES USES SUCH AS LOW PROFILE OFFICE HEALTH OR OTHER IDENTIFIED TARGET RETAIL RESTAURANT USES AS IDENTIFIED IN THE ECONOMIC PLAN ARE ENCOURAGED.

THE COTTAGES APPEAR TO BE REALLY SMALL AND ON TINY LOTS.

THEY SEEM OUT OF PLACE BASED ON THE VALUE OF OUR NEIGHBORING HOMES.

INTERESTINGLY, WHEN WE WERE LOOKING TO BUY A HOUSE HERE, EVERY REAL ESTATE AGENT THAT WE HAD SPOKE ABOUT THE SAME THING.

SOUTHLAKE A BEAUTIFUL TOWN, GREAT HOME VALUES AND NO APARTMENTS.

THE STAFF REPORT SAYS NEW DEVELOPMENT MUST BE COMPATIBLE WITH AND NOT INTRUSIVE TO EXISTING DEVELOPMENT.

I THINK THIS ANSWERS THE QUESTION THAT FOREFRONT DEVELOPMENT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR THIS TRACK OF LAND.

WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO PROTECT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

NEXT WE HAVE HENRY SCHNEIDER FROM 2513 PARK GROVE LOOP.

WE'LL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

HI. GOOD EVENING, HENRY SCHNEIDER, 2513 PARK GROVE LOOP.

I AM ALSO OPPOSING THE FOREFRONT SENIOR LIVING DEVELOPMENT VARIANCE REQUESTS AND LAND PLAN.

HOWEVER, I AM NOT OPPOSING SENIOR LIVING DEVELOPMENT WITHIN SOUTHLAKE, AND NONE OF THE RESIDENTS THAT WE VISITED WITH ARE AGAINST IT EITHER.

OBVIOUSLY IT HAS TO DO WITH SIZE.

I THINK REALLY THE BIGGEST IS REALLY THE SCALE AND THE DENSITY.

I PRACTICED CIVIL ENGINEERING FOR 37 YEARS IN LAND DEVELOPMENT AND STILL DEAL WITH LAND DEVELOPMENT.

I MEAN, GENERALLY WE DON'T BUILD MASSIVE STRUCTURES NEXT TO RESIDENTIAL HOUSES.

IT'S THE ENVY OF SOUTHLAKE.

SO WE TRANSFERRED FROM THE HOUSTON METROPLEX.

HOUSTON METROPLEX, THE EQUIVALENT TO SOUTHLAKE IS PARTS OF MEMORIAL.

THE VILLAGES.

THE LAND VALUES JUST GET GREATER AND GREATER.

AND SO WE WANTED TO LIVE IN A GREAT PLACE.

WE'VE MADE AN EXTENSIVE INVESTMENT JUST BECAUSE THAT'S THE LAND VALUES.

THE THE ISSUE THAT I SEE WITH IT IS, AGAIN, THE DENSITY AND THE HEIGHT.

THEY SAY THEY'VE LOWERED IT, BUT THE THE BUILDING IS STILL LABELED ON THEIR DRAWINGS AS 75FT.

SO YOU CAN CALL IT FOUR STORIES, BUT IT'S REALLY FIVE.

THEY'VE BURIED THE PARKING GARAGE.

THEY JUST BASICALLY PUSH UP DIRT TO MAKE IT.

SO ON THE STONY BROOK SIDE, WE'RE ON THE LOW SIDE OF THE DEVELOPMENT, SO THEY'RE EQUAL HEIGHT OR EVEN ABOVE US.

AND SO THAT THAT BECOMES MORE OF THE ISSUE.

THE DENSITY IS INTENSE.

SO INTENSE THAT IT REQUIRES A PARKING GARAGE TO BEGIN WITH.

IT'S A 24 OVER SEVEN OPERATION, AND SO IT'S AROUND THE CLOCK.

I WAS THE ONE THAT ALSO BROUGHT UP ABOUT THE THE FACILITY MOVING TO STATE HIGHWAY 114 THAT DIDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH.

I THINK SENIORS NEEDED TO BE THERE.

IT WAS THAT'S WHERE APPROPRIATE DEVELOPMENT IS LOCATED.

AND IT'S NO DIFFERENT THAN I TOLD SOMEBODY IDEALLY MY WIFE AND I QUALIFY TO MOVE INTO INTO THE FACILITY, AND I THINK IT'S A GREAT BUSINESS MODEL.

I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED IT ACTUALLY BE SITTING RIGHT HERE.

I WOULD LOVE TO THINK I COULD WALK OUT OF MY DOOR AND WALK IN TO TOWN CENTER.

THIS IS LIKE ONE OF THE MOST FABULOUS PLACES ON PLANET EARTH.

I CAN I CAN GO EAT, I CAN SHOP, SIT AT COFFEE SHOPS, WALK AROUND ALL OF THE FESTIVALS AND EVERYTHING THAT GO ON HERE.

[01:20:01]

THAT'S THAT'S TO ME, THAT'S MY COMMENT IS, IS THE BUILDING JUST DOESN'T FIT IN THE SPACE.

IT'S A LOSS OF HOME VALUE TO US BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY REFER TO IT AS APARTMENTS ON THEIR WEBSITE.

AND SO PEOPLE WILL SEE IT AS AN APARTMENT COMPLEX.

THE TREES IN THE BUFFER ZONES, THEY THEY AREN'T GOING TO MAKE IT GO AWAY.

SO THAT'S OUR CONCERN.

WE'VE MADE A, A SIZABLE INVESTMENT TO LIVE HERE AND REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO IT.

WE JUST GO AHEAD AND WRAP IT UP.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU SIR.

NEXT WE HAVE DYLAN HOLMES AT ONE TWO, ONE EAST, STATE HIGHWAY 121, AND CAPELL WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM SEVEN A.

GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS DYLAN HOLMES.

MY ADDRESS IS 225 EAST STATE HIGHWAY, HIGHWAY 121, SUITE 120.

COPPELL, TEXAS.

I'M AN EMPLOYEE OF HOLMES BUILDERS.

WE DEVELOPED STONY BROOK, WHICH BORDERS FOREFRONT ON THE WEST SIDE.

WE OWN 11 LOTS REMAINING THERE.

WE'RE BUILDING MULTIPLE HOUSES AND WE MANAGE THE STONY BROOK HOA.

OUR EXPERIENCE WITH STONY BROOK, THE DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL PROCESS HERE OUR FIRST SUBMITTAL TO THIS COUNCIL IN 2017, WE SUBMITTED A 59 LOT COMMUNITY WITH 15,000 SQUARE FOOT.

AVERAGE LOTS. IT WAS REJECTED.

OUR SECOND SUBMITTAL WAS A 53 LOT COMMUNITY WITH 18,700 SQUARE FOOT AVERAGE LOTS.

THAT WAS ALSO REJECTED.

WE CAME BACK WITH OUR THIRD AND ACCEPTED SUBMITTAL, WHICH IS THE CURRENT 47 LOT COMMUNITY WITH 20 ZERO ZERO ZERO SQUARE FOOT AVERAGE LOTS.

SOMEONE SPOKE EARLIER ABOUT THE SOUTHLAKE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

I'LL SPEAK TO GOAL ONE QUALITY OF DEVELOPMENT, OBJECTIVE 1.2 AND ENCOURAGES APPROPRIATE SCALED NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGN THAT COMPLEMENTS EXISTING DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS WHILE CREATING UNIQUE PLACES.

RECOGNIZING THAT THE QUALITY RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS ARE THE CORNERSTONE OF OUR COMMUNITY.

WE SHOULD HAVE CONSIDERED THIS MORE CLOSELY WHEN WE BROUGHT OUR FIRST AND SECOND SUBMITTAL ABOUT STONY BROOK.

WE GOT A LOT OF NEIGHBORS REMINDING US AS WE'RE GOING THROUGH THAT PROCESS.

IT WAS TOO HIGH DENSITY COMPARED TO THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS.

THROUGHOUT THE CITY APPROVAL PROCESS, WE LEARNED ABOUT THESE OBJECTIVES AND IMPLEMENTED A LOWER DENSITY NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH IS WHAT WE'RE BUILDING THERE TODAY.

DUE TO THE STARK CONTRAST THAT AN APARTMENT STYLE BUILDING POSES AGAINST THE EXISTING ADJACENT AND NEARBY RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, I ASK THIS COUNCIL TO DENY THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST.

THANK YOU SIR. NEXT WE HAVE ROGER LAYMAN AT 920 SOUTH PATTONVILLE AVENUE.

WISHES TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

SEVEN A. GOOD EVENING.

HOW ARE YOU? GOOD.

HOW ARE YOU? GOOD. ROGER LAYMAN 920 SOUTH PATTONVILLE.

I LIVE LESS THAN A MILE FROM THE PROPOSED SITE.

SO TONIGHT I FEEL COMPELLED TO SPEAK TO THE CITY COUNCIL IN FAVOR OF THIS PROJECT AND ENCOURAGE YOU TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP OUR HOMETOWN FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS. OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS, SOUTHLAKE, PNC AND CITY COUNCIL HAVE OVERSEEN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ONE OF THE GREATEST SMALL TOWNS IN AMERICA.

THAT'S NOT AN OVERSTATEMENT.

IT TRULY IS.

CITY COUNCIL ALLOWS A VERY FEW OBJECTING PARTIES TO STOP THE DEVELOPMENT.

WE WOULDN'T BE SITTING HERE IN THIS BUILDING.

EVIDENTLY, IT WOULD BE IN A FIELD.

WE WOULDN'T HAVE A BEAUTIFUL TOWN SQUARE.

WE WOULDN'T HAVE THE WIDE BOULEVARDS.

WE WOULDN'T HAVE WORLD CLASS SHOPPING AND RESTAURANTS.

WE WOULDN'T HAVE HOSPITALS AND HOTELS.

BUT WE DO, BECAUSE CITY COUNCIL FOLLOWED THROUGH ON A VISION TO SEE WHAT SOUTHLAKE COULD BECOME.

WE GOT TO KEEP SHAPING SOUTHLAKE FOR THE BETTER.

THAT INCLUDES THIS DEVELOPMENT FOR OUR AGING POPULATION, SO THAT IN THE YEARS TO COME, WE CAN AFFORD, OR WE CAN OFFER OUR SOUTHLAKE SENIORS A PLACE TO AGE GRACEFULLY AND CLOSE TO HOME.

AND I'M INCLUDING MYSELF, I DON'T I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE LESS THAN A MILE AWAY WHEN I'M IN MY 70S.

FOR THOSE ARGUING AGAINST OR ARGUING THAT THERE IS SENIOR LIVING OPTIONS, WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH.

WE NEED MORE AND WE NEED MORE COMPETITION IN THE SPACE.

THIS PROPOSED FACILITY ALLOWS ANOTHER CHOICE FOR SOUTHLAKE SENIORS TO REMAIN LIVING IN THIS COMMUNITY WITH DIGNITY AND PURPOSE.

IT AFFORDS US. IT AFFORDS THOSE OF US WITH PARENTS WHO ARE STILL LIVING AN OPTION TO BRING THEM BACK CLOSER TO US, BECAUSE THEY HAD TO MOVE FURTHER AWAY.

[01:25:01]

MY MOTHER IN LAW LIVES ALMOST 30 MINUTES AWAY.

OUR AGING RESIDENTS ARE THE VERY ONES THAT WE WANT TO STAY IN OUR COMMUNITY.

WE WANT THEM AROUND.

WE WANT THEM TO GREET US AT CHURCH, TO MANAGE THE VOTING POLLS, TO FILL THE SEATS AT OUR CHARITY EVENTS, AND TO BE A PART OF OUR LIVES DAY TO DAY.

SO DO WE FORCE THEM OUT OF OUR HOMETOWN JUST BECAUSE A PRECIOUS FEW OR OPPOSING SENIOR CARE DEVELOPMENT.

WE NEED TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR SOUTHLAKE AND I'M SURE THAT YOU WILL.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

NEXT IS GREG MILOSEVIC AT 804 CARRIAGE COURT HERE IN SOUTHLAKE WISHES TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF ITEM SEVEN A.

IT'S NOT AN EASY NAME TO GET RIGHT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THAT WAS WELL DONE.

THANK YOU. GREG MILOSEVIC, 804 CARRIAGE COURT.

I JUST HAVE A STORY OF MY NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR WHO CAN'T FIND HOUSING FOR HIS MOTHER WHEN THEY MOVED HERE.

SO THEY HAD TO BUY A BIGGER HOUSE SO THAT THEY COULD HAVE A ROOM FOR HER, BECAUSE THERE'S JUST A GROWING DEMAND AND A LACK OF SUPPLY.

SO I JUST THINK THIS IS A NO BRAINER, AND I'M IN FAVOR OF THIS PROGRAM.

AND I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THAT EVERYBODY SAID IN FAVOR OF THIS.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

NEXT IS RAMAN ARORA.

2532 PARK GROVE LOOP HERE IN SOUTHLAKE WISHES TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MEMBERS.

MY NAME IS RAYMOND ARORA.

2532 PARK GROVE LOOP.

MY PROPERTY LIES WITHIN 250FT OF THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT, AND I WOULD LIKE TO STATE MY OPPOSITION TO THIS PROJECT.

ALTHOUGH I DO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR SENIOR LIVING FACILITIES IN THE AREA.

THE PROPOSED LOCATION MAY NOT BE THE.

I MAY NOT BE IDEAL, ESPECIALLY AT THE SCALE AND DENSITY OF THE DEVELOPMENT.

THE DEVELOPER OF THIS PROJECT HAS PREVIOUSLY STATED THAT THE PROJECT WOULD NOT BE ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE IF THEY WERE TO REDUCE DENSITY.

FURTHER, I WOULD LIKE TO STATE THAT OUR SUBDIVISION, STONY BROOK, STILL HAS LOTS AVAILABLE FOR SALE.

THE DEVELOPER HOMES BUILDERS WOULD STRUGGLE TO SELL THE REMAINING LOTS WITH THIS LARGE BUILDING IN SUCH CLOSE PROXIMITY.

SO WHAT ABOUT THE ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF THEIR PROJECT, WHICH IS ALREADY APPROVED AND IN PROGRESS? NOT TO MENTION THE VALUES OF OUR HOMES THAT MAY DEPRECIATE DUE TO THIS.

ADDITIONALLY. ADDITIONALLY, I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BRING TO THE ATTENTION OF THE COUNCIL THAT WITH THE PROPOSED 200 PLUS UNIT DEVELOPMENT AT AN AVERAGE OF TWO RESIDENTS PER UNIT, THERE WOULD BE A TOTAL OF 400 PLUS POTENTIAL SENIORS LIVING IN THIS FACILITY AT THREE MEALS A DAY.

WE'RE LOOKING AT OVER 1200 MEALS PREPARED AND SERVED DAILY, NOT COUNTING THE STAFF.

BEING A RESTAURANT OWNER, I KNOW HOW MUCH ORGANIC TRASH AND FOOD WASTE SUCH A PRODUCTION CAN CREATE.

I'M QUITE CERTAIN WE WILL BE HAVING ODOR AND RODENT ISSUES IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD OVER THE COMING YEARS.

BEING SO CLOSE TO IT, SUCH A FACILITY IS NOT SUITABLE TO BE NEXT TO A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD.

LASTLY, I WOULD LIKE TO STRONGLY URGE THE COUNCIL MEMBERS TO RECONSIDER THE LOCATION OF THIS PROJECT OR AT THE VERY LEAST, LIMIT THE DENSITY SO THAT THE ECONOMIC HARDSHIP CAN BE REDUCED AND DIVIDED BETWEEN ALL THE CONCERNED PARTIES, ALONG WITH ENSURING MINIMAL IMPACT ON THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR.

NEXT WE HAVE CATHY BETHAM AT 2600 PARK GROVE.

LOOP WISHES TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO THIS ITEM.

GOOD EVENING AND THANK YOU.

I'M CATHY BETHUNE, BUILDING A HOME AT 2600 PARK GROVE.

I'M A 65 PLUS SENIOR MOVING INTO THE AREA.

I SPENT THE LAST EIGHT YEARS HELPING CARE FOR MY PARENTS WHILE THEY TRANSITIONED THROUGH SEVERAL STAGES OF CARE IN A FAITH BASED SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY.

SO I KNOW THAT THESE COMMUNITIES DO PROVIDE A WONDERFUL SERVICE, AND I ACKNOWLEDGE THERE MAY BE A NEED FOR MORE SENIOR LIVING OPTIONS HERE IN SOUTHLAKE.

THE ISSUE I AND OTHER HOMEOWNERS HAVE IS PUTTING SOMETHING THIS LARGE IN AN AREA WITH RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS SURROUNDING IT.

THE CITY'S LAND USE OBJECTIVES AND CORRIDOR PLAN FOR THIS AREA HAVE ALREADY BEEN STATED, BUT SPECIFICALLY I WANT TO CALL OUT BUILDINGS THAT ARE CONSISTENT AND COMPLEMENT EXISTING DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE LOW PROFILE AND THAT PRESERVE PROPERTY VALUES.

THE P AND Z CHAIR MENTIONED, HARBORCHASE, WAS ORIGINALLY PROPOSED IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO NEIGHBORHOODS AND ULTIMATELY MOVED TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION.

HARBORCHASE IS A BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY WITH MANY TREES AND GREEN SPACES, AND IT'S ONLY TWO STORIES IN THE FRONT AND THREE ON THE BACK, MUCH SMALLER THAN THIS.

I DO ACKNOWLEDGE IT'S NOT INDEPENDENT LIVING.

[01:30:01]

WHILE I REALLY APPRECIATE THE MODIFICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE FROM THE ORIGINAL PLAN, THE SCALE OF THE MAIN BUILDING IS STILL MASSIVE AND OUT OF PROPORTION TO THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS, AND ALL THE PICTURES AND VIEWS YOUR SINGER WITH THE TREES FULLY LEAFED OUT.

I STRUGGLE TO SEE ANYTHING THIS LARGE ON DAVIS OR SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARDS, AND IT WOULD BE MISREPRESENTING THE FEEDBACK THAT WE HAD AT OUR MEETING WITH FOREFRONT TO SAY WE FELT THIS SOLVED ALL OF OUR ISSUES.

I DO FEEL LIKE SOMEWHAT WE AS HOMEOWNERS ARE BEING MADE TO LOOK LIKE THE BAD GUYS, BUT MANY OF US PURCHASED LOTS IN STONY BROOK WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEARS, AND WE DESIRE TO PRESERVE OUR PROPERTY VALUES AND THE BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL VIBE OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

SOME OF US THAT ARE MOVING FROM OUTSIDE SOUTHLAKE INTO THIS AREA HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SPIN OR QUARTER MEETINGS WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR LOTS.

FOREFRONT HAD BEEN IN DISCUSSIONS WITH THE CITY FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS.

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASY FOR THEM TO ENGAGE WITH AND INFORM THE THREE BUILDERS FOR STONY BROOK, BUT THEY DID NOT.

HAD THE BUILDERS KNOWN OF THIS PROJECT, SOME OF US MIGHT HAVE MADE DIFFERENT DECISIONS.

WE KEEP BEING TOLD THIS IS NO DIFFERENT THAN MORTIMER, BUT WE KNEW ABOUT WATER MIRROR WHEN WE CHOSE OUR LOTS.

WHAT ARE THE ODDS IN SOUTHLAKE THAT WE COULD END UP IN A NEIGHBORHOOD BOOKENDED BY TWO TALL, HIGH DENSITY SENIOR LIVING FACILITIES? I DO BELIEVE THIS WILL NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR PROPERTY VALUES AND THE ABILITY OF HOMES TO CONTINUE TO SELL LOTS.

FOREFRONTS NEW PROPERTY IN PLANO HAS BEEN MENTIONED AND IT IS VERY NICE, BUT SOUTHLAKE DOES NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE THAT AREA OF PLANO.

THAT PROPERTY IS SURROUNDED BY VACANT LAND, APARTMENT BUILDINGS, A CITY PARK, AND A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH HOMES.

IT IS ABOUT A MILE AND A HALF FROM THE TOLLWAY, SO YOU CAN SEE MULTI-STORY OFFICE BUILDINGS FROM THAT PROPERTY, AND YOU CAN ALSO SEE THAT PROPERTY FROM THE TOLLWAY.

I SEE THAT YOUR TIME IS UP, SO IF YOU COULD WRAP IT UP, THAT'D BE GREAT.

I JUST RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU CONSIDER THE VIEWS OF THE HOMEOWNERS.

AND IF YOU DO APPROVE THIS, AS RAYMOND SAID, CONSIDER REDUCING THE DENSITY.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

NEXT WE HAVE JOE CONIGLIO AT 814 SHORECREST DRIVE HERE IN SOUTHLAKE WILL SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

GOOD EVENING.

JOE CONIGLIO 814 SHORECREST DRIVE.

IT IS. I APPRECIATE THE TIME TO BE HERE.

WE'VE COVERED A LOT OF GROUND, SO I'LL TRY TO YOU KNOW, FOCUS MY COMMENTS.

I WILL SAY THIS.

I HAVE A UNIQUE VANTAGE POINT.

I'VE, LIKE YOU, RAISED OUR FAMILY HERE.

I LIVE IN TIMBERLAKE, AND FOR THE LAST 14 YEARS, I HAVE HAD THE HONOR OF LIVING IN SOUTHLAKE.

AND ONE OF THE THINGS I'VE LOVED ABOUT SOUTHLAKE IS THE GREAT CARE THAT IT TAKES WITH HOW THE COMMUNITY GROWS.

AND I APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THAT.

I'M ALSO ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO I WORKED AS A HEALTH CARE CORPORATE ATTORNEY, AND I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH FOREFRONT LIVING, AND I'VE BEEN WORKING AS OUTSIDE COUNSEL FOR THEM ON DIFFERENT CORPORATE REGULATORY MATTERS AND SERVING THEIR BOARD AS COUNSEL FOR THE LAST 14, ALMOST 15 YEARS.

SO I CAN TELL YOU THAT AS A CITIZEN OF SOUTHLAKE THAT UNDERSTANDS WHAT THIS COMMUNITY HAS BEEN BUILT ON AND THE FORETHOUGHT THAT'S GONE INTO IT.

WE ALL NEED TO BE VERY SELECTIVE WHEN WE GO INTO ANY TYPE OF PROJECT, MUCH LESS ONE THAT IS LIKE THIS.

I APPRECIATE THE CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN RAISED BY THOSE THAT HAVE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE BUILT ON A PIECE OF LAND THAT'S NEXT TO THEIR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT. THERE'S A REASON WHY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMITTEE REVIEWED ALL THIS AND HEARD ALL OF THESE SAME DISCUSSIONS, AND THEY APPROVED THIS FROM A PLANNING AND ZONING STANDPOINT. AND ONE OF THE COMMENTS THAT WAS MADE AT THAT TIME WAS THAT THIS SHOULD BE FOCUSED ON PLANNING FOR THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE.

THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT IS SOMETHING THAT IS UNIQUE AND IS SOMETHING THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NEEDED FOR THE CITY OF SOUTHLAKE.

I CAN TELL YOU THAT BECAUSE I WAS ACTUALLY IN THE SAME POSITION A YEAR AND A HALF AGO BEFORE MY MOTHER PASSED.

WE WERE LOOKING FOR A PLACE FOR HER TO COME LIVE, AND WE WERE UNIQUELY LOOKING AROUND THOSE OPTIONS, AND WE WEREN'T ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING AT THAT TIME.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS ONLY GOING TO CONTINUE TO GROW.

AND I THINK EVERYONE APPRECIATES THAT SENIOR LIVING AND THE SENIOR COMMUNITY OFFERING IS VERY DIFFERENT THAN THE DENSITY DISCUSSIONS THAT HAVE HAD BEEN HAD IN THE PAST. AND LASTLY, I'LL SAY, I KNOW THAT AS SOMEONE THAT'S LIVED IN SOUTHLAKE AND SOMEONE THAT'S WORKED WITH FOREFRONT LIVING, THIS IS THE IDEAL PARTNER FOR OUR COMMUNITY.

IT IS, FRANKLY, YOU COULDN'T PICK A BETTER SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY FOR THIS TOWN.

THEY HAVE THE SAME PRINCIPLES THAT HAVE MADE THIS CITY GREAT.

[01:35:03]

AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT CANDIDLY, THERE'S NOT ANOTHER CLIENT THAT I'VE WORKED WITH OVER THE LAST 27 YEARS THAT I'M PROUDER TO BE AFFILIATED WITH BECAUSE OF THAT.

LIKE SOUTHLAKE, FOREFRONT LIVING IS FOCUSED ON QUALITY AND PROTECTING THE HIGH STANDARDS OF THE CITIZENS AND THE PEOPLE THAT ARE IN THEIR COMMUNITY. LIKE SOUTHLAKE FOREFRONT LIVING IS MISSION DRIVEN, BUILT AND OPERATED WITH FAITH BASED PRINCIPLES AND DOING WHAT IS RIGHT.

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, LIKE SOUTHLAKE, FOREFRONT LIVING IS FOCUSED ON SERVING THE COMMUNITY.

I APPRECIATE YOUR CONSIDERATION, AND I WOULD ASK THAT YOU CONSIDER VOTING IN FAVOR OF THIS DEVELOPMENT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

NEXT IS CHRISTINE ROSS AT 2521 PARK GROVE LOOP HERE IN SOUTHLAKE WISHES TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF ITEM SEVEN A.

OH, OPPOSITION.

I'M SORRY. YEAH. THAT'S OKAY.

MY BAD. I FIRST WANT TO SAY THAT I THINK FOREFRONT SOUNDS FANTASTIC, AND IF MY PARENTS NEEDED A PLACE TO GO, I WOULD CHOOSE FOREFRONT.

I THINK THEY WOULD BE A GREAT PARTNER FOR SOUTHLAKE, AND I'M CLOSER TO BEING A SENIOR CITIZEN THAN I AM NOT, SO I APPRECIATE THAT.

HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS SPOT IS THE RIGHT SPOT FOR THIS PROJECT.

WE WE'VE BEEN IN THE AREA FOR 11.5 YEARS.

WE SOLD OUR HOUSE IN WESTLAKE.

I KNOW THE DAVIS SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD VERY WELL OVER THOSE YEARS.

WE LOVE BUILDING HOUSES, SO WE WANTED TO FIND ANOTHER PLACE TO BUILD A HOUSE.

AND WE FOUND STONY BROOK, AND WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BEAUTIFUL AND VERY MUCH IN KEEPING WITH SOUTHLAKE IN GENERAL, THE WAY YOU ALL HAVE DESIGNED THIS CITY, IT'S AMAZING.

THE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE BEAUTIFUL.

WE WERE WE DID OUR HOMEWORK.

WE CHECKED TO SEE WHAT THE ZONING WAS BEHIND US, AND WE WERE SURPRISED IN SEPTEMBER TO FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A ZONING CHANGE BEING TALKED ABOUT AND WHAT WAS GOING TO BE IN THAT SPACE.

I THOUGHT THAT EVEN MULTI USE WAS LOW DENSITY.

I'M REPEATING THINGS THAT PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY SAID.

SO SORRY ABOUT THAT.

BUT WITH 210 UNITS, THAT'S A POTENTIAL 420 PEOPLE IN ADDITION TO 90 EMPLOYEES.

ALL THE DELIVERIES AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

I DO THINK IT'S A PROBLEM TO HAVE YOUR ENTRANCES ONLY ON DAVIS BOULEVARD.

IF YOU LOOK AT WATER MIRROR, YOU'VE GOT TWO ENTRANCES WITH A STOPLIGHT ON SOUTHLAKE BOULEVARD, WHICH IS A VERY BUSY ROAD.

AND THEN YOU'VE ALSO GOT UNION CHURCH, WHICH IS NOT A BUSY ROAD.

AND SO I THINK THAT HELPS A LOT WITH THE TRAFFIC THERE.

I KNOW THEY SAID THEY REDUCED THE, THE, THE, THE HEIGHT, BUT THERE IS AN UNDERGROUND PARKING GARAGE BUT THAT IS VISIBLE FROM OUR SIDE.

SO WE'RE LOOKING AT FIVE STOREYS AND THE BUILDING I BELIEVE IS TWO FOOTBALL FIELDS LONG.

SO, IT'S A BIG, VERY LARGE BUILDING.

I WANT TO RESTATE, WE ARE NOT AGAINST FOREFRONT AT ALL.

AND AGAIN, THEY WOULD BE A GREAT PARTNER FOR OUR COMMUNITY.

I JUST HOPE THAT IF YOU DECIDE TO LET THEM DO THIS, THAT YOU WILL REDUCE THE SCALE OR IF THERE'S ANOTHER PLACE IN SOUTHLAKE THAT COULD ACCOMMODATE THIS.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR LISTENING, AND I WANT TO THANK ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR VOLUNTEER, YOUR TIME TO MAKE OUR COMMUNITY BETTER.

SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

MUCH APPRECIATED.

NEXT WE HAVE JASON WANG FROM 721.

WINDING RIDGE TRAIL WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO ITEM SEVEN, A JASON WANG.

COME ON DOWN. HELLO.

JASON WANG 721 WINDING RIDGE TRAIL I LIVE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PROPOSED PROPERTY ON THE EAST SIDE AT VILLAS OF HIDDEN KNOLL.

I STARTED A CHANGE.ORG PETITION AND IT HAS CURRENTLY 284 SIGNATURES.

I HAVE A PRINTOUT IF YOU'D LIKE IT.

OTHERWISE, I DID SHARE THE LINK.

YOU CAN ALSO GO TO THAT.

I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN SAID IN OPPOSITION.

I'M NOT OPPOSED TO SENIOR LIVING.

I'M NOT OPPOSED TO FOREFRONT AS AN ORGANIZATION.

AND AGAIN, MY OPPOSITION AND THE OPPOSITION OF MY NEIGHBORS, ALL OF THOSE RED DOTS ON THAT MAP IS NOT AN INDICTMENT AGAINST SENIOR LIVING. IT'S JUST IN THE WRONG PLACE.

THIS A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE AND SCALE IS IN THE WRONG PLACE AT FOREFRONT.

AND THE P&Z COMMISSION, AND MAYBE YOURSELVES AS WELL.

DON'T AGREE.

DAVIS BOULEVARD IS DANGEROUS.

THIS IS RECOGNIZED BY TXDOT.

THEY WOULDN'T BE PUTTING A LARGE MEDIAN PROJECT IN WITHOUT THE PROBLEMS ON DAVIS BOULEVARD.

[01:40:07]

IT'S BEEN MENTIONED.

WATER MIRROR HAS BEEN A BIG COMPARISON.

THE AREA IS VERY DIFFERENT NOW COMPARED TO WHEN WATER MIRROR WAS CONSTRUCTED.

IT'S FILLED IN WITH RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES.

AND TO ALL THE SUPPORTERS I HEAR YOU AND I DON'T HAVE ANY.

AGAIN, NOTHING AGAINST SENIORS.

I WOULD ASK FOR ALL THE SUPPORTERS TO CONSIDER IF YOU WOULD LIKE THIS PROPERTY TO BE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS WELL.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU SIR. DID YOU SAY YOU HAD SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO HAND US? I CAN IF YOU'D LIKE.

I HAVE ALL THE LIST OF THE.

JUST MAYBE HAND IT TO OUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER OVER THERE AND WE'LL GET IT INTO THE RECORD.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR THAT.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

NEXT WE HAVE JAMES DWYER.

2401 LOWER BROOK COURT WILL SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO ITEM 7.A.

THANK YOU. JAMES DWYER, 2401 LOWER BROOK COURT IN SOUTHLAKE.

AND THAT IS WITHIN THE 200 FOOT BUFFER AREA.

I'VE BEEN A LONG TIME RESIDENT OF TARRANT COUNTY SINCE 1985.

LIVED IN EULESS, SOUTH KELLER, NORTH KELLER, COLLEYVILLE, NOW SOUTHLAKE.

PRESENTLY THERE ARE FIVE DWELLING UNITS ON THAT PROPERTY.

THE PLAN HAS 210 DWELLING UNITS.

THAT'S 42 TIMES INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF DWELLING UNITS.

THERE WOULD BE A LOSS OF NATURAL HABITAT IN THE AREA AS WELL.

IT'S A LOVELY CREEK BED THAT HAS WATER IN IT THROUGH THROUGHOUT THE SUMMER.

FISH AND WILDLIFE.

BOBCATS, LITERALLY BOBCATS.

BARN OWLS.

IT'S A GREAT LITTLE PRECIOUS JEWEL THAT IS PRECIOUS.

YOU KNOW, HARD TO FIND IN THIS HIGHLY DEVELOPED AREA.

AND SO, AND I UNDERSTAND IT THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE BUILDING IN THAT, IN THAT FLOODPLAIN, BUT STILL A LOT OF THAT WILDLIFE COULDN'T TOLERATE THE, THE, THE, THE DEVELOPMENT.

WE ARE NOT OPPOSED.

MY NEIGHBORS AND THE PEOPLE THAT ARE OPPOSED ARE NOT OPPOSED TO CONTINUING RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITY.

WE JUST FEEL LIKE IT'S JUST TOO INTENSE.

IT'S A 730 FOOT LONG BUILDING THAT'S UP TO FOUR STORIES HIGH, MOSTLY THREE STORIES HIGH.

IT IS A BIG BUILDING.

IT IS A HUGE BUILDING AND IT'S JUST TOO DENSE.

AND I THINK THAT'S THE CONSISTENT OBJECTION IS THE DENSITY OF IT.

SO THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THAT CONCLUDES THE CARDS THAT INDICATED WISHING TO SPEAK DURING THIS PUBLIC HEARING.

I'M GOING TO READ THE COMMENT CARDS FOR THOSE WHO INDICATED THEY DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK, BUT OF COURSE YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR MIND AS I READ THROUGH THEM.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME DOWN AND SPEAK LIKE THE OTHERS HAVE, JUST PLEASE COME ON DOWN.

YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR MIND.

OR IF I MISSTATE YOUR POSITION, JUMP UP AND INTERRUPT ME.

OH, COME ON DOWN.

YEAH. AND YOU KNOW THE DRILL.

WITH THE THREE MINUTES, IF YOU COULD STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, AND THEN WE'LL PUT THE TIMER ON FOR THREE MINUTES.

I'M LAURIE BRENNAN, 2528 PARK GROVE LOOP.

I WANTED TO BEGIN BY ADDING MY OPPOSITION TO THE PROJECT.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR, MY HUSBAND AND I PURCHASED A LOT IN THE STONY BROOK NEIGHBORHOOD THAT BACKS UP TO A WOODED CREEK, AND WE WERE QUITE EXCITED TO HAVE A SECLUDED, PRIVATE, WOODED BACKYARD.

SHORTLY AFTER, WE RECEIVED A POSTCARD FROM FOREFRONT LIVING WITH INFORMATION OF THEIR PROPOSED PROJECT THAT WOULD BACK RIGHT UP TO OUR NEW LOT WITH A LARGE APARTMENT BUILDING AND MULTIPLE SINGLE FAMILY VILLAS.

WE ORIGINALLY WONDERED IF WE SHOULD CONTINUE WITH OUR NEW BUILD, BUT DECIDED THAT SURELY SOUTHLAKE WOULD NOT APPROVE OF SUCH A LARGE STRUCTURE.

ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE CHOSE SOUTHLAKE ORIGINALLY WAS BECAUSE OF THE SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD FEEL.

LITTLE DID WE KNOW WE COULD POSSIBLY HAVE AN APARTMENT RIGHT BEHIND OUR HOUSE.

WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE NOISE AND THE AMOUNT OF CARS PARKED AROUND THE BUILDINGS.

A QUICK TRIP OVER TO WATER MIRROR.

I SAW NO FEWER THAN 60 PLUS CARS PARKED ALL AROUND THE ASSISTED LIVING BUILDING THERE.

WE ARE, OF COURSE, ALSO WORRIED ABOUT OUR PROPERTY VALUES.

ONE LAST POINT.

COINCIDENTALLY, WE CURRENTLY LIVE IN THE VILLAS OF HIDDEN KNOLL, DIRECTLY BEHIND DAVIS, ACROSS DAVIS BOULEVARD FROM THE PROPOSED SITE.

I CAN TELL YOU FIRSTHAND AT TIMES, PULLING OUT ONTO DAVIS ALONG THAT STRETCH CAN BE VERY CHALLENGING.

AND UNLESS THERE IS A PLAN TO PUT A STOP LIGHT.

BY THE TIME THE DEVELOPMENT IS BUILT, IT WILL BE A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN FOR EVERYONE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE HIGHWAY THERE.

SO THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

NEXT WE HAVE LUIS ARRIETA AND SANDRA JAFFE, BOTH AT TWO, SIX, FOUR NINE PARK GROVE LOOP HERE IN SOUTHLAKE.

THEY DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD OPPOSITION TO ITEM SEVEN A.

THEY DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD OPPOSITION TO ITEM SEVEN.

A. I THINK WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE.

CHRISTY KOVARIK AT 1434 WALTHAM DRIVE HERE IN SOUTHLAKE DOES NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT RECORD SUPPORT FOR ITEM 7AI TAKE IT.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT WE DID NOT CALL WHO WOULD LIKE TO SUBMIT A CARD OR WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK? ON THIS ITEM? PARDON ME.

I LIKE TO SPEAK. COME ON DOWN.

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

YES. MY NAME IS HELEN WONG.

MY ADDRESS IS 409 WHINING RIDGE TRAIL.

I LIVE IN RIDGEVIEW.

I'M NOT GOING TO REPEAT ALL THE STATEMENTS THAT THE FOLKS THAT OPPOSE THIS PROJECT BECAUSE I FEEL THE SAME WAY I'M SURE FOREFRONT LIVING IS A GREAT COMMUNITY.

FOR SENIORS.

HOWEVER, I DO THINK THAT THE LARGE SCALE DENSE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT WITH ALL THESE MULTI BUILDINGS IS NOT

[01:50:03]

IN KEEPING WITH THE SINGLE FAMILY COMMUNITY IN OUR AREA.

SO I THINK THE MAIN POINT HERE IS IF I CAN SHARE AN OBSERVATION, IS THAT THE FOLKS THAT TENDS TO BE A PROPONENT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT ARE NOT THE NOT RESIDENTS OF THESE COMMUNITIES THAT IS GOING TO BE AFFECTED BY THE PROJECT.

I THINK THE QUESTION IS, YOU KNOW, THE DEBATE IS NOT WHETHER WE SHOULD HAVE A SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY IN SOUTHLAKE, BUT RATHER IT IS A QUESTION OF WHERE IT SHOULD BE LOCATED.

CURRENTLY IT IS ZONED FOR SINGLE FAMILY, WELL RESIDENTS.

OKAY. AND THIS DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T FALL INTO THAT CATEGORY.

AND I THINK IT'S UTTERLY UNFAIR FOR FOLKS WHO HAVE INVESTED IN THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY.

AND NOW THERE'S A REQUEST FOR ZONING CHANGE.

SO, I MEAN, OUR INVESTMENT COUNTS JUST LIKE ANYBODY ELSE'S.

AND THE FOLKS THAT ARE WANTING, YOU KNOW, THE PROJECT, THEY DON'T HAVE THE INVESTMENT THAT ARE GOING TO BE AFFECTED BY THIS.

SO THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO SAY, THAT YOU KNOW, BEAR IN MIND THAT WE DO HAVE A FINANCIAL STAKE THAT'S GOING TO BE AFFECTED BY THIS.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK OR SUBMIT A COMMENT CARD? GOING ONCE, GOING TWICE.

ALL RIGHT. I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

COUNCIL, DO YOU WANT TO START WITH ANY QUESTIONS FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH OR ANYONE ON STAFF BEFORE WE GO BACK TO THE APPLICANT? I DO HAVE A QUESTION.

DIRECTOR KILLOUGH. WAS THERE A TRAFFIC STUDY DONE? NO, THERE WAS NOT A TRAFFIC STUDY.

THERE WAS A TRAFFIC THRESHOLD ANALYSIS THAT WAS SUBMITTED.

IT INDICATED THAT IT WOULD GENERATE ROUGHLY 686 VEHICLE TRIPS AND 24 HOUR PERIOD.

THE THRESHOLD ON THAT CRITERIA IS 1000 PER DRIVEWAY.

AND I THINK ON THE PEAK TIMES, THE MAXIMUM PEAK ON THAT WAS ABOUT 52 TRIPS AND A DESIGN HOUR, WHICH IT'S 100 TRIPS PER DRIVEWAY AND THAT SCENARIO.

THANK YOU. AND THOSE ACCOUNT FOR THE TRIPS THAT ARE ON 1938 RIGHT NOW.

THAT'S RIGHT.

ABOUT 2% ADDITION TO WHAT'S THERE TODAY.

ANYTHING ELSE FOR DIRECTOR KILLOUGH AT THIS TIME? ALL RIGHT. I'LL INVITE THE APPLICANT TO COME UP IF YOU'D LIKE TO RESPOND TO ANY OF THE PUBLIC COMMENTS WE'VE HAD, OR PERHAPS BE AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL.

WHY DON'T YOU GO AHEAD AND DO WHATEVER YOU'D LIKE TO SAY BEFORE? POSSIBLY SOME QUESTIONS.

JUST A COUPLE OF CLARIFICATIONS.

AGAIN, THE EXPECTED OCCUPANCY IS 1.3 PER RESIDENCE, NOT TWO.

SO SOME OF THE NUMBERS THAT WERE MENTIONED OR FEARED WILL NOT BE REALIZED.

ALSO, EACH INDEPENDENT INDEPENDENT LIVING RESIDENT RECEIVES THE EQUIVALENT OF 20 MEALS PER MONTH.

SO IT IS NOT A THREE MEAL PER DAY PROGRAM.

SO THE VOLUME OF OF FOOD AND OTHER THINGS WOULD BE OVERSTATED IN THAT CASE.

AND I THINK JANELLE WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE PETITION THAT WAS SUBMITTED.

YEAH. IN LOOKING AT THE PETITION OF THERE'S 63% OF THE SUPPORTERS COME FROM THREE ZIP CODES, 76092, WHICH I BELIEVE IS SOUTHLAKE.

AND THEN THE OTHERS ARE NOT SOUTHLAKE RESIDENTS.

AND AGAIN, THAT'S COMPRISED TWO OTHER ZIP CODES.

PLUS SOUTHLAKE IS JUST 60 IS 63% OF THE NUMBER THAT WAS MENTIONED EARLIER.

SO OTHERS COME FROM OTHER LOCATIONS OUTSIDE OF THE AREA.

OKAY. AND WE'RE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANTS.

I JUST A COUPLE QUESTIONS.

WHAT'S THE AVERAGE SIZE OF ONE OF THE UNITS.

AND THERE ARE THE DIFFERENT SIZES.

WHAT ARE YOUR OPTIONS ON THOSE.

THE AVERAGE SIZE THEY RANGE FROM JUST UNDER 1000FT² UP TO THE UPPER 2000.

THERE'S A POTENTIAL FOR THE ABILITY TO COMBINE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN NEARLY 3000FT².

WE HAVE A NUMBER OF FOLKS THAT ARE AT THAT LEVEL OF FLUENCY.

THEY'D LIKE TO COMBINE. SO WE'VE SEEN TWO LARGE RESIDENCES COMBINED.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE COTTAGES? THE COTTAGES ARE LARGER.

THEY ARE 2500 TO 2500.

THANK YOU. JANELLE. OKAY.

ANYTHING ELSE FOR THE APPLICANTS?

[01:55:03]

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A SEAT.

THANK YOU. COUNCIL.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? YES, MAYOR. I MEAN, I'LL GIVE YOU MY OPINION TO KIND OF KICK THINGS OFF.

IT'S INTERESTING TO ME HOW TIME FLIES.

I WAS IN MY FIRST TERM ON COUNCIL WHEN HARBORCHASE CAME THROUGH IN LATE 2014.

I THINK I'M THE ONLY ONE UP HERE THAT CONSIDERED THAT AN APPLICATION, AND THIS ONE FEELS SO SIMILAR IN THE SENSE THAT THE CONCEPT WAS WONDERFUL. I MEAN, WHO CAN ARGUE WITH THE CONCEPT OF SENIOR LIVING AND SUPPORTING THOSE FOLKS AT THAT STAGE OF LIFE? IT WAS A LOCATION ISSUE.

AND, AND I RECALL THAT'S ULTIMATELY HOW HARBORCHASE ENDED UP WHERE IT IS.

AND IT'S IN A JUST A PERFECT LOCATION.

NOW, IT'S IT'S NICELY THERE OFF OF 114.

AND IT'S BEEN A MODEL PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.

SO FROM MY PERSPECTIVE IT'S I'M IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE I WAS TEN YEARS AGO, WHICH IS WONDERFUL CONCEPT.

NOT A GOOD LOCATION, NOT WITH RESIDENTS IN EVERY DIRECTION SURROUNDING.

I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT. I THINK, YOU KNOW, WE APPRECIATE EVERYONE WHO'S COME OUT TONIGHT.

I KNOW IT'S GETTING LATE ON A ON A SCHOOL NIGHT, AND I APPRECIATE PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE EQUATION, WHETHER YOU'RE IN SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION.

WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING PART OF OUR PROCESS.

THAT HELPS US MAKE GOOD DECISIONS.

HEARING THE INPUT OF ALL THE GREAT PEOPLE IN SOUTHLAKE AND SOME OF THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES.

SO TIME WELL SPENT, AND I APPRECIATE THE APPLICANT HAS MADE A LOT OF REVISIONS TO THIS, BUT I THINK IT IS A LOCATION ISSUE.

I THINK IT'S ALSO, YOU KNOW, THE WORD WE HEARD WAS DENSITY.

ALSO, LOOKING AT THE REVISED SUBMITTAL, IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S BECOME HAS MORE IMPERVIOUS COVERAGE AND LESS OPEN SPACE THAN BEFORE.

SO I THINK THAT MAY BE GOING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION, BUT I THINK THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS ON IT FOR TONIGHT.

ANYONE ELSE? YEAH, I WOULD AGREE.

LOOKING AT THE DENSITY CHANGES THAT WERE MADE, AND I SAT ON CORRIDOR AND SAW THIS AND WE SAID FROM FROM DAY ONE IT WAS TOO DENSE.

THE DENSITY CHANGES THAT WERE MADE WERE MADE AT THE COTTAGE LEVEL AND SOME OF THE OTHER.

BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE MAIN PART OF IT, WHICH SOMEBODY DESCRIBED TONIGHT AS TWO FOOTBALL FIELDS.

JUST FEELS GIGANTIC FOR ME AND A LITTLE BIT OUT OF PLACE.

SO I REALLY DO LOVE THE MISSION.

I AGREE WE PROBABLY DO NEED MORE SENIOR LIVING IN SOUTHLAKE.

I JUST THINK WE NEED TO FIND A DIFFERENT LOCATION.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS? GO AHEAD.

YEAH, I WOULD ECHO THAT SAME SENTIMENT.

I THINK THAT I THINK I'VE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT FOREFRONT HERE, YOU KNOW, THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS.

AND I THINK I APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S INPUT.

AND I THINK THOSE THAT ARE IN SUPPORT MAKE GREAT POINTS.

I THINK THOSE THAT ARE IN OPPOSITION MAKE GREAT POINTS.

I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE DO NEED HERE.

BUT I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE YOU CAN'T PUT THIS RIGHT RIGHT THERE, I DON'T THINK.

GO AHEAD. YEAH. I DON'T REALLY HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD EXCEPT I AGREE WITH WITH WHAT'S ALREADY BEEN SAID.

I THINK, OF COURSE, AS OUR POPULATION AGES, WE'RE GOING TO NEED MORE SENIOR LIVING.

OF COURSE. I JUST DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT LOCATION.

I AGREE WITH WHAT EVERYBODY ELSE HAS SAID, AND I THINK TWO POINTS THAT WERE WELL MADE IS THE SCALE OF THE DEVELOPMENT AND THE FACT THAT IT'S NOT COMPATIBLE WITH WHAT IT SURROUNDS.

IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN'T IGNORE AND FOR, AND I THINK THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE INVESTMENT IN THAT AREA WERE NOT ANTICIPATING THIS KIND OF SCALE OF DEVELOPMENT OR ANY, AND IT BEING SO INCOMPATIBLE WITH WHAT'S NEAR IT.

SO THAT'S MY FEELING ABOUT IT.

BEAUTIFUL FACILITY.

I'M ONE OF THE PROUDEST MOMENTS OF MY ADULT LIFE.

WE MOVED MY MOM INTO A SIMILAR FACILITY IN PEACHTREE CITY, GEORGIA.

I TOLD HER AT THE TIME, I HOPE I'M ABLE TO AFFORD TO LIVE IN A PLACE LIKE THAT.

GREAT. SHE HATES IT BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO LIVE IN MY SISTER'S HOUSE.

BUT I'D BE AMENABLE TO THIS WONDERFUL FACILITY IN ANOTHER LOCATION IN SOUTHLAKE.

THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS BEFORE WE CALL FOR A MOTION FROM MAYOR PRO TEM WILLIAMSON? ALL RIGHT, RANDY, IT'S ALL YOURS.

YES, MAYOR. COUNCIL, I MOVE THAT WE DENY ITEM SEVEN A ORDINANCE NUMBER 480823 AND IN 4808248240051.
