Exhibit C - Statement of Planning Objectives
He/ran/Pond'
Coileyville. Texas— November 13.2013 Sage Group, Inc.
Statement of Planning Objectives-
Heron Pond is a proposed residential neighborhood to be developed by flat Creek
Development under the Planned Unit Development regulations tier Residential
development (PUD-R) in the City of Colic ilk. The 15.43 acre property is locatedon
the south side of Li) Lockett Road. just east of Precinct Line Road, the property is
currently shown on the FutureLand Use Plan as Retail, but is zoned lbr Residential (R-
40)and is occupiedby an equestrian laacility, open space and auicult oral areas.
The surro€ndine area is frilly developed. Across the street to the north is the existing
Emerald Park neit7iborhood, to the west lies Community and Conutiercial ITses,
containing the corner gasoline station' convenience store package store. and the Bear
ValleyCommunity Church. Toour south and east is the Reatta Place PI..TD-RResidential
neiehborhood.
The subject tract is shown on the Future Land Use flan as "Retail" however we believe
there would be a limited niiirket kr Retail Uses in this location, as there is no reni fining
frontageon Precinct I.ine Road, and that it better use lie- this property would beto begin a
transition ti'om the Commercial to the west, to the PITT)-R Single Fatuity Residential to
thecast with a suitable Single-Family Residential use.
This proposal which transitions between the Commercial Tracts to the west along
PrecinctLine Road with residential lots averaging over 8.400 s.Y. to the larger lots in
ReattaPlace, and over 22%Open Space, is consistent with this and-we believe- the
surrounding uses.
The property generally slopes toward the drainageswale and lake that routs from the north
to the south through the property. All of our street and lot drainage would be directed
toward this area and would notaffect any of the neighborine properties.
We have commissioned a drainage study to illustrate the current conditions and mike
sure this development- as proposed- would net the requirements of the ordinances
regulating development and drainage.
Exhibit C - Statement of Planning Objectives (Continued)
Quality and compatibility with the adjacent residential. as well as the rest of Colkyville
are essential, and we havedesigned this proposal with those 4goals in mint
The residences planned for Heron Pond will be very upscale, with selling prices
estllT aced to range between 5400,000 to over 5600,000. The development will have as its
focal point, and feature, a pond and landscaped perimeter. The imiinentry road has been
located directly across from the Emerald Park Entry=, but also to take advantage of the
resulting entry viewtoward the landscaped central lake area.
line internal road is planned to be a gated private road with a Resident/ Visitor gate at tlx:
westernentry, across from the existing gated entry into Limerald Park,designed to meet
all the city standards tear such an entry. Theeastern entry will be resident-only, providing
a second point of access. Wepropose to build the noninl Colkyville street section of 31'
back of curb to back of curb), in a 40'R.O.W. with 5' utility and sidewalk easements on
either side.
In addition to some of the existing trees we will save within the open space areas,there
will be a requirement of a front yard tree liar even,-• residential lot to be installed by the
hour builders, adjacent to the street right of way. A minimum of two trees will also be
installed in tlx:rear yard of each lot backing to the neighboring lots in Reatta Place, at the
eastern boundary, where existing trees do not already exist. To encourage pedestrian
activity in the neighborhood, sidewalks will be built along the front of each lot, as well as
a 5'trail around the lake. The indicatedlandscaped setback, along LD Lockett, will be
preserved within an open space lot, to be owned and maintained by the Heron Pond
Iionrowners Association.
The scale and orientation of the development has been designedtohavean inviting visual
Bow with the existingneighborhoods and surrounding uses. Thedesign criteria of the
hoes create high quality homes in keeping. with both the immediate neighborhood
and Colkyville as a whole.
Development Schedule
Heron Pond will be developed in a singlephase with the developmentcommencing upon
the successful completion of the zoning and platting and the subsequent approval of the
final plat and engineering plans. Construction of homes is anticipated to start
immediatelyupon completion of the subdivision's infrastructure.
Economic Development Information
Heron Pond will have a total of tbny-nine (49) hours, each with an averageestimated
value upon completion ofaapproxinutely 3400,000 to over5600,000,resulting in an
overall tax base of 524,500,000, based on a 3500,000 estimatedaverage. At the current
tax rate of 2.694677%,the total taxes generated from the development are projected to he
5654,000.with S 91,250 generated directly fins the City.

Title
Approval of a final plat on 6.4 acres on Tract 3B, of Abstract 1543, of the George W.
Teeter Survey located at 1301 Glade Road, Case PC14-004
Explanation
Chase Rowan is the developer of 6.4 acres of land located on the south side of Glade
Road, south of Riverwalk Drive. The developer has submitted a final plat, which will
subdivide the property into nine residential single family lots and two open space lots,
for the construction of single family residential detached dwelling units.
Zoning. The property is currently zoned PUD-R-Planned Unit Development Residential
zoning district. A rezoning request for PUD-R was approved on March 4, 2008 with
Ordinance O-08-1659 (attached).
The zoning requirements stated in attached Ordinance O-08-1659 include single family
detached residential as the primary use with a maximum density of 1.4 dwelling units
per acre. The minimum lot size is 20,000 square feet. The minimum lot width is 100
feet, except for cul-de-sac lots, which shall be a minimum of 83 feet.
Open Space. The PUD-R ordinance for the property requires a minimum of 14.97
percent of the total development as open space. The open space areas include two
ponds. All of the open spaces will be landscaped and maintained by the Homeowner's
Association (HOA) as required by Ordinance O-08-1659.
Access. The development will have access from Glade Road to the newly created
street, Carmel Place. The new street serving this development shall contain a minimum
of 40 feet of right-of-way width and a minimum of 31 feet of pavement width,
measured from curb-back to curb-back. All homes constructed in the development
shall be installed with a fire suppression sprinkler system approved by the Fire
Marshal.
As part of Ordinance O-08-1659, the applicant received a waiver to the street design
requirements in the Land Development Code with regard to right-of-way width
requirements and pavement width requirements for cul-de-sac streets over 600 feet in
length. The Land Development Code requires a cul-de-sac street that is between 600
feet and 1,200 feet in length to have a minimum of 56 feet of right-of-way and 36 feet
Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Briefing 3b
City of Colleyville Page 2
of pavement width measured from curb-back to curb-back. The proposed street will be
800 feet in length. The waiver was contingent on all homes in the development
containing an approved fire suppression system.
Drainage. The developer submitted a drainage analysis of the site at the time of the
zoning application. The analysis was reviewed and accepted by the City of Colleyville
Engineering Division of the Public Works Department. According to the drainage
analysis, the development will provide on-site retention. Details of the proposed
drainage system and storm water retention ponds have been submitted as part of the
platting process.
All on-site drainage and stormwater runoff shall comply with Section 14-17 - Drainage
and Storm Sewer Improvements in the Land Development Code. Subsection "L" states
that detention or retention facilities may be used to reduce peak discharges where
conditions prevent conveying stormwater to an adequate discharge point. Detention or
retention facilities shall be privately maintained unless the City of Colleyville has
agreed to accept public dedication of the facility. In the case of this development, a
retention pond will be located at the south end of the development. Although the
proposed pond straddles the proposed open space Lot 11X and the single family home
Lot 8, the pond will be maintained by the HOA and must be completely located within a
drainage easement.
Ordinance O-08-1659 requires that a masonry, or stone, retaining wall shall be
constructed, and, where applicable, replace any existing retaining wall structure or
material along the creek, prior to the acceptance of final public improvements by the
Engineering Division of the Public Works Department. The wall shall be approved by,
and meet the specifications of the City and shall be maintained by the HOA.
Sidewalks and Trails. The Land Development Code requires sidewalks on all public
streets. According to Ordinance O-08-1659, a minimum five-foot wide sidewalk shall
be located along both sides of the new street, serving the development and along
Glade Road. The sidewalks are required to be installed when any new structures are
built on the property where the sidewalk is adjacent to single family home lots.
Otherwise, the developer will be responsible for constructing any required sidewalks on
Lots 10X and 11X prior to the acceptance of final public improvements.
Signage. A sign identifying the development shall be built at the southwest corner of
the entrance to the subdivision as shown in the PUD-R ordinance. The sign shall meet
the requirements of the Land Development Code and shall not be located within any
street right-of-way.
Landscaping and Tree Preservation. Landscaping and tree preservation along
Glade Road shall conform to the specifications and depictions as shown in Ordinance
O-08-1659. A minimum of two (2) three-inch caliper trees shall be planted within the
front yard of each lot by the builder upon construction of a new home. Trees not
Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Briefing 3b
City of Colleyville Page 3
located within the right-of-way or within a pad site must be preserved during
construction. Before construction begins on the site, protective fencing must be
installed around the drip line of all developer identified preserved trees located outside
the right-of-way. A tree survey has been received.
Preliminary Plat Approval. The City Council approved the preliminary plat on May
14, 2013.
Summary. The proposed development satisfies the requirements of the Ordinance O-
08-1659 and the Land Development Code. Given the amendments to plat approval
authority approved earlier this year, this plat only requires approval by the Planning
and Zoning Commission.

Title
Consideration of a variance to the provisions of Chapter 5-Tree Preservation in the
Land Development Code on 2.3 acres located on Lot 1, Block 1 of the Baylor-Emerus
Addition located at 5500 Colleyville Boulevard, Case GC14-011
Explanation
Duke Realty is requesting a variance to the tree preservation requirements contained
in Chapter 5-Tree Preservation in the Land Development Code for property located
5500 Colleyville Boulevard.
The subject property currently contains a 16,165 square foot building that is under
construction that will house a new Baylor-Emerus hospital. The zoning for the hospital
was approved by a Special Use Permit under Ordinance O-13-1872 (attached) on May
7, 2013. Completion of the building is scheduled for June 2014.
Variance Request. Chapter 5-Tree Preservation (attached) requires that any variance
to the chapter be heard by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The decision of the
Commission is final.
The applicant is requesting a variance to Section 5.8(A), which states: “Minimum
Existing Tree Preservation Requirements: When any new construction occurs, there
shall be a minimum number of trees protected on the property. For new residential
subdivisions, the entire boundary of the subdivision shall be considered as one
property for the purpose of this section.”
According to the exhibit provided by the applicant, 40.5 percent of the subject property
was covered by a protected tree canopy before construction began. Based on the total
existing protected tree canopy on the property before construction began of 40.5
percent, a minimum of 50 percent of the protected canopy must be preserved in place.
The following is a breakdown of the requirement (this information is also provided on
the attached table):
Total pre-developed canopy coverage – 40.5% or 40,875 square feet of canopy
coverage
Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Briefing 3c
City of Colleyville Page 2
Total preservation requirement – 50% or 20,438 square feet of canopy coverage
Total existing canopy coverage as of 5/9/2014 – 10.422 square feet.
Section 5.8(A) further states that “protected trees located within any of the exempted
areas may be credited toward the minimum existing preservation coverage
requirements in the above table such that no more than 50% of the existing protected
trees may be credited within an exempt area.
Given this allowance, 5,211 square feet of bonus area may be credited back to the
overall existing canopy coverage, leaving a total existing canopy coverage of 15,633
square feet. This leaves a final required protected canopy coverage deficiency of 4,805
square feet. Therefore, the applicant is requesting a variance to this requirement.
Staff Recommendation. Given the minimum tree preservation requirements noted
above, once the minimum amount of required protected trees are removed from the
property, it is effectively impossible to remove the violation status of this section from
the property without the approval of a variance given the inability to restore a mature
tree canopy to a property. Given that condition, staff recommends that, as a condition
of approval for the variance, the applicant be required to pay the mitigation cost per
caliper inch based on the existing tree protection deficiency. Based on an average
caliper inch per canopy square foot for the subject property of 0.01736, the canopy
deficiency of 4,805 square feet equates to a total of 83 caliper inches. Therefore, at the
rate of mitigation rate of $250.00 per caliper inch per Section 5.10(B), the total
restorative fee requirement would be $20,851.53. Per the requirements of Section
5.10(B), the monies would be deposited into the tree preservation fund, which is used
by the City in order to plant trees on public properties.
Tree Mitigation Requirements. It should be understood that the overall tree
mitigation requirements for the subject property based on the protected trees removed
versus trees required to be mitigated for Section 5.10 are not part of this variance
request. The applicant states that they intend to adhere to those requirements through
the replanting of trees on the subject property. As stated above, this variance request
only applies to the minimum existing canopy protection requirements contained in
Section 5.8(A).
Recommendation
Approval with the following conditions:
The applicant is required to pay a minimum of $20,851.53 into the City of
Colleyville tree preservation fund as a restorative canopy charge prior to the issuance
of the Certificate of Occupancy for the primary structure on the subject property.

Re: Baylor Emergency Medical Center at Colleyville
Variance Request for Violation of Code Section 5.8 – Tree Preservation Requirements
To whom it may concern:
As the representative of Duke Realty BEMC Colleyville Development LLC, the property owner for the
Baylor Emergency Medical Center at Colleyville, I request a variance for the current violation of the city
of Colleyville Code Section 5.8 regarding tree preservation requirements. According to the Existing Tree
Preservation Requirements table in this section, a minimum of 50% of the existing protected tree canopy
must be preserved. Due to the constraints of the site, we were only able to maintain 39.3% of the existing
protected canopy. Duke Realty understands the importance of maintaining canopy coverage and will
provide additional trees on site to help restore the canopy coverage as well as improve the aesthetics of
the site and community. Please see attached variance application, tree survey and application fee. Feel
free to contact me at 972-361-6711 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
DUKE REALTY CORPORATION

Section 5.8 Tree Preservation Requirements
A. Minimum Existing Tree Preservation Requirements: When any new construction occurs,
there shall be a minimum number of trees protected on the property. For new residential
subdivisions, the entire boundary of the subdivision shall be considered as one property
for the purpose of this section. The chart below shall be used to determine the minimum
protection requirements:
Existing Tree Coverage Preservation Requirements:
Percentage of existing protected tree coverage Minimum percentage of the existing protected tree coverage to be preserved
0% – 20% 70%
20.1 – 40% 60%
40.1% - 60% 50%
60.1% - 80% 40%
80.1% - 100% 30%
Protected trees located within any of the exempted areas specified in section C below
may be credited toward the minimum existing preservation coverage requirements in the
above table such that no more than 50% of the existing protected trees may be credited
within an exempt area. NOTE: The minimum preservation coverage requirements listed
above may not be mitigated for as described in Section 5.10.
B. Preservation of Heritage Trees: Heritage Trees, as defined in Chapter 2 - Definitions,
may not be classified as exempted trees, regardless of whether or not they are located in
an exempted area as defined in the sections below.
C. Exempted Areas, Persons and Tree Species from preservation requirements:
1. New Residential Subdivisions with Street Dedications: Except where noted above,
the following areas shall be exempt from the tree preservation requirements of this
chapter:
a. Rights-of-way of newly dedicated streets
Page 5-4
b. Easements
c. Residential setback envelope
d. NOTE: When submitting a new residential subdivision plat, the Planning and
Zoning Commission may evaluate whether an alternate street layout and grading
plan which complies with all City subdivision standards would result in
substantially greater tree preservation. In the event such an alternate layout is
determined by the Commission to be a reasonable use of the land then the
applicant may substitute said alternative plan without being required to submit a
new Preliminary Plat application. If, however, the applicant does not substitute
said alternate layout or another acceptable plat to the Commission, failure of the
applicant to do so shall be a basis for denial of the applicant's application.
2. Platted Residential Lots: Except where noted above, the following areas shall be
exempt from the tree preservation requirements of this chapter:
a. Residential setback envelope
3. Platted Commercial Lots: Except where noted above, the following areas shall be
exempt from the tree preservation requirements of this chapter:
a. Trees located within the new commercial building footprint.
4. Exempted Tree Species: The following tree species shall be exempt from the tree
preservation requirements of this chapter:
a. Mesquite
b. Hackberry
c. Chinese Tallow

Section 5.9 Tree Protection
A major purpose of this Chapter is to protect all trees which are not removed and to allow
approved construction to occur. The following procedures shall apply to all types of
construction projects which involve development around trees.
The following procedures are deemed appropriate in the situations noted; however, unique
circumstances may allow modifications if deemed necessary by the Administrative Official.
A. Prohibited Activities: The following activities shall be prohibited with the limits of the
critical root zone of any tree which is subject to the requirements of this Chapter.
1. Material Storage: No materials intended for use in construction or waste materials
accumulated due to excavation or demolition shall be placed within the limits of the
critical root zone of any tree.
2. Equipment Cleaning / liquid disposal: No equipment may be cleaned or other liquids
deposited within the limits of the critical root zone of a tree. This would include but
not be limited to, paint, oil, solvents, asphalt, concrete, mortar or other materials.
3. Tree Attachments: No signs, wires or other attachments, other than those of a
protective nature shall be attached to any tree.
4. Vehicular Traffic: No vehicular and construction equipment traffic or parking is
allowed within the limits of the critical root zone of trees.
B. Pre-Construction: The ensuing procedures shall be followed prior to construction.
1. Tree Flagging: All trees to be removed from the construction site shall be flagged with
bright red vinyl tape wrapped around the main trunk at a height of four feet (4’) or
more such that the tape is visible to workers on foot or driving equipment.
2. Protective Fencing: All protected trees shall have protective fencing located at the
tree's critical root zone. The protective fencing may be comprised of snow fencing,
orange vinyl construction fencing, chain link fence or other similar fencing with a four-
Page 5-6
foot (4’) approximate height. The protective fencing may be located within the critical
root zone of the specimen tree for approved construction only. The fencing shall
follow the delineation of the approved construction. In order to protect the trunk, the
trunks of all protected trees shall be wrapped with orange vinyl construction fencing
such that the trunk will be easily visible during construction activities.
3. Bark Protection: in situations where a tree remains in the immediate area of intended
construction, the tree shall be protected by enclosing the entire circumference of the
tree's trunk with lumber encircled with wire or other means that does not damage the
tree.
4. Construction Pruning: In a case where a low hanging limb may be broken during the
course of construction, the obtrusive limb may be cut. The limb shall be cut either
flush to the trunk on or at the next joint of the limb. The wound shall then be sealed
with pruning paint.
In no instance shall pruning involve a portion of the trunk or thirty percent (30%) of
the entire canopy without the Administrative Official's prior approval.
C. Improvement within the Critical Root Zone of a Tree: Design constraints often dictate that
trees slated for preservation have some encroachment on their critical root zone, as
defined in Chapter 2 - Definitions. The following is the minimum design criteria, which is
allowed within the critical root zone of a tree. Development exceeding the criteria would
put the tree at risk and therefore no longer be considered a preserved tree. In such a
case replacement trees shall also be required.
1. Grade Changes: In the event that grade changes must be made around a tree or
group of trees, the following shall be implemented in order to maintain oxygen and
water exchange within the tree's critical root zone.
a. A minimum of seventy-five percent (75%) of the critical root zone must be
preserved at natural grade with natural ground cover or landscaping for the tree
to be considered a preserved tree.
b. No cut or fill greater than two inches (2”) shall be located closer to the tree trunk
than one half (1/2) of the radius of the critical root zone radius distance.
c. Increase Grade: Provide an aeration system just outside the tree's critical root
zone. A dry well located a minimum of one-half (1/2) of the radius of the critical
root zone.
d. Decrease Grade: Provide retaining walls outside the critical root zone to mitigate
cuts.
2. Boring of Utilities: May be permitted under protected trees in certain circumstances.
The minimum length of the bore shall be the width of the tree's canopy and shall be a
minimum depth of forty-eight inches (48”).
3. Trenching: irrigation systems shall be designed to avoid trenching across the critical
root zone of any tree.
4. Paving: A maximum of twenty five percent (25%) of the critical root zone of a tree
may be covered with impervious paving. The pavement and the cut and fill for the
pavement is to not exceed one-half (1/2) of the critical root zone radius distance.

Section 5.10 Mitigation and Violations
Any protected tree which is six inches (6”) or greater that is removed, destroyed or more than
50% damaged and does not meet the exemption provisions of this chapter shall be mitigated per
the requirements of this section. In the event that the loss of a protected tree requires mitigation,
the party responsible for mitigation shall either replace the protected tree(s) by planting new
trees, pay a mitigation fee or a combination of both. For the purpose of this Chapter, trees
removed within any City right-of-way or other City owned property by anyone not exempted by
Section 5.8(C)5 shall be mitigated per the requirements of this section and other applicable City
ordinances.
The mitigation authorized by this section is not meant to supplant good site planning. Tree
replacement will be considered only after all design alternatives which could save more existing
trees have been evaluated.
A. Mitigation Through Planting New Replacement Trees: A sufficient number and diameter
of replacement trees shall be planted in order to equal the total diameter inches or
fraction thereof of trees six inches (6”) or greater and slated for removal.
1. Replacement trees shall be a minimum of three inches (3”) diameter when measured
one foot (1’) above the soil line and a minimum of eight feet (8’) in height when
planted.
Examples-
a. A total of 18” diameter to be removed shall be replaced with 6 – 3” diameter
trees.
b. A total of 19” diameter to be removed shall be replaced with 7 – 3” trees or 5
– 3”, trees and 1-4” tree.
2. All replacement trees shall be a species listed on the replacement tree list and
guaranteed for one year from the date of the final inspection and acceptance of the
project.
3. The location of replacement trees is restricted from utility easements and rights-of-
way. The location shall not be in an area such that the mature canopy of the tree will
interfere with overhead utility lines. No trees shall be planted within ten feet (10’) of a
fire hydrant.
4. Replacement trees should be planted on the site from which existing trees are to be
removed. If this is not feasible, an applicant may initiate a proposal to plant trees off-
site. This may be approved if the planting site is no more than one-half mile from the
site where the original trees were removed.
5. Replacement trees shall be planted prior to the issuance of the certificate of
Occupancy or project release. Optimum planting times do not always correspond to
project completion. For that reason, replacement tree plantings may take place after
the project is released by the City; provided, that before project release, a fiscal
security is posted in the amount equal to the prevailing rate for installed trees with a
one (1) year guarantee, plus fifteen percent (15%) to cover administrative cost.
B. Mitigation Through Payment of Fee: A monetary fee of $250.00 per diameter inch of the
tree(s) removed or damaged shall be assessed and paid to the City of Colleyville. All
mitigation fees shall be deposited into the City’s Tree Preservation Fund.
Page 5-8
C. Mitigation of Heritage Trees: Heritage Trees, as defined in Chapter 2 – Definitions and
noted in Section 5.8:
1. A monetary fee of $500.00 per diameter inch of the Heritage Tree removed or
damaged shall be assessed and paid to the City of Colleyville and deposited into the
City’s Tree Preservation Fund, or;
2. If replacement trees are to be planted, the total amount of replacement inches to be
planted shall be in an amount that is twice the diameter inches of the Heritage
Tree(s) removed and shall, otherwise, meet the requirements of Section A above.
D. Colleyville Tree Preservation Fund: All mitigation fees shall be paid into the Colleyville
Tree Preservation Fund. The fund shall be administered by the City Manager or his/her
designee and shall only be used for the planting of new trees on City owned or leased
properties, rights-of-way and other public properties such as public schools, county and
State properties located within the City of Colleyville.
E. Penalty for Violation: Any person violating or failing to comply with any provision or
requirement of this Chapter, including but not limited to the mitigation requirements of this
section, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall,
without exception, be fined the maximum amount of $2,000.00. A separate offense shall
be deemed committed upon each day during or on which each separate violation or
failure to comply occurs or continues to occur and shall be punishable as such.
F. If any protected tree dies within three (3) years of the issuance of the certificate of
occupancy, final inspection or acceptance of public improvements and is brought to the
attention of the city manager or his/her designee, the original permit applicant shall be
subject to the replacement/mitigation requirements for protected trees per this section.

Section 5.12 Construction Plan Requirements
The following notes shall be required as a part of all construction plans.
1. All trees shown on this plan to be preserved shall be protected during construction with
temporary fencing. Tree protection fences shall be installed prior to the commencement
of any site preparation work (clearing, grubbing or grading).
2. Fences shall completely surround the tree or clusters of trees. The fence shall be located
at the outermost limits of the tree branches or critical root zone. The fence will be
maintained throughout the construction project in order to prevent the following.
A. Soil compaction in the critical root zone resulting from vehicular traffic or storage of
equipment or materials.
B. Critical root zone disturbances due to grade changes greater than two inches (2”) cut
or fill or boring which was not authorized by the City.
C. Wounds to the trunk, limbs or exposed roots by mechanical equipment.
D. Other activities detrimental to trees such as chemical storage, cement trunk cleaning,
and fires.
3. In cases of area constraints where the protective fence is closer to the trunk than four
feet (4’), the trunk must be protected with strapped-on planking to a height of eight feet
(8’) or to the limits of the lower branching.
4. All grading within critical root zones of protected trees shall be performed by hand or
small equipment to minimize damage. Prior to grading, relocate the protective fencing to
two feet (2’) behind the grade change area.
5. Trees most heavily impacted by construction activities should be watered deeply once a
week during periods of hot and dry weather. Tree crowns should be sprayed with water
periodically to reduce dust accumulation on the leaves.
6. Trenching for landscape irrigation shall be located as far from the existing trunks as
possible.
7. Pruning to provide clearance for structures, vehicular traffic and equipment shall take
place before construction begins.

Title
Request for a vacating plat on Lot 13-R, Block 8, of the Oak Crest Hills Addition located
at 313 Oak Valley Drive, Case PC14-008
Explanation
This plat request was denied by the Planning and Zoning Commission at the request of
the applicant at the April 14, 2014 Planning and Zoning Commission meeting in order
to allow the applicant to return with a new plat application showing a modified request.
The modifications from the previous plat are as follows:
- The applicant is showing a 12.5 right-of-way dedication for Bransford Road, which is
2.5 less than the15 foot dedication requirement.
- The applicant is showing a ten foot side yard setback from Bransford Road, which is
20 feet less than the 30 feet required.
The remainder of the briefing remains unchanged from the April 15, 2014 briefing
except where the above conditions are addressed.
Ryan Panno, the applicant, is requesting approval of a vacating plat in order to revert
Lot 13R, Block 8, Oak Crest Hills Addition to the original four single family lots on
2.496 acres, located at 313 East Oak Valley Drive approved as part of the original Oak
Crest Hills Addition plat on April 12, 1966 (attached). The applicant is requesting the
vacating plat in order to construct four single family detached homes on the subject
property. The subject property fronts East Oak Valley Drive and Bransford Road and is
currently vacant. The property was previously the site of the Colleyville City Hall
building before the current City Hall was constructed.
Zoning. The subject property is zoned R-20-Single Family Residential district.
Lot Dimensions and Setbacks. The R-20-Single Family Residential zoning
regulations require a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet with a minimum lot width
of 100 feet, and lot depth of 125 feet. Per Section 3.24 G, Schedule of District
Regulations, the following residential zoning standards apply:
Minimum Front Yard Setback: 30 feet
Planning and Zoning Commission Agenda Briefing 3d
City of Colleyville Page 2
Minimum Side Yard Setback: 10 feet
Minimum Rear Yard Setback: 25 feet
Maximum Lot Coverage: 30 percent
Although the lot widths are slightly less than 100 feet at the front property lines along
East Oak Valley Drive, they are 100 feet in width at the 30 foot front building line.
According to the Land Development Code, lot width is measured at the front building
line.
History of Property. The subject properties were replatted, per the attached replat,
on August 26, 1985 in order to place the City Hall building on the property. The City
Hall building was then demolished in 2003 given the opening of the current City Hall
building at 100 Main Street. The property has been vacant since 2003. On December
17, 2013, the City Council approved the sale of the subject property to the applicant
under Resolution R-13-3697 (attached). Among other conditions, the sale of the
property is contingent upon the approval of a vacating plat for the property.
Request for Waivers. The applicant is requests to dedicate 12.5 feet of right-of-way
for Bransford Road, rather than the required 15 feet. Bransford Road is designated as a
Major Collector (Four Lane) on the Master Thoroughfare Plan, which requires 80 feet of
right-of-way. Therefore, as part of the platting process, 40 feet of right-of-way is
required to be dedicated west of the centerline of Bransford Road for the subject
property. When the original plat was approved, Bransford Road required only a 50 foot
right-of-way. The reason for the waiver request is that, although the plat is a vacating
plat and is proposing to bring back the original lot configuration, the plat must meet all
current Land Development Code requirements.
Given that an established 30 foot front setback exists along Bransford Road for
properties primarily to the south of the subject property, the applicant is required to
indicate a 30 foot setback along Bransford Road given the R20 front yard setback
requirement of 30 feet. The applicant is requesting a waiver to this requirement and
shows a 10 foot setback along Bransford Road.
Tree Preservation. As required by Chapter 5-Tree Preservation of the Land
Development Code, approval of a tree survey, preservation and mitigation plan is
required upon approval of the final plat for the property.
Summary. The Oak Crest Hills Addition Vacating Plat complies with the requirements
of the Land Development Code with the exception of the right-of-way dedication
requirement for Bransford Road and building setback along Bransford Road. Given the
waiver request, staff recommends denial due to technical non-compliance with the
Land Development Code.

Approval of the updated bylaws for the Planning and Zoning Commission
Explanation
Update
Based on the Planning and Zoning Commission's recommendations made at the April
14, 2014 meeting, staff has clarified the difference between an open and closed
meeting; the Planning and Zoning Commission Chairman may recommend an
extension of speaking time for the applicant; the Planning and Zoning Commission may
direct questions following the rebuttal; and staff has renumbered the updated sections
accordingly. The mark-up and final bylaw documents are attached to this agenda
briefing.
All boards, commissions and committees were asked to review and update their
current bylaws and to submit them in a new uniformed template provided by the City
Secretary's office.
Since the Planning and Zoning Commission did not have specific bylaws outlined, staff
has incorporated the approved Rules of Procedure (attached to this agenda
briefing) into this new bylaw template.
The proposed bylaws for the Planning and Zoning Commission is attached for the
consideration of approval. Once approved, the new bylaws will be presented to City
Council for their approval.
